This story is a sequel to 'That One Flight', I recommend you read that story first (if you haven't) just for the story to make more sense :) *This book has some explicit content* *UNDER REVISION* BOOK TWO from the 'O'Neill Series'. *PREVIOUSLY NAMED 'LOVE IN BELGRADE'.* *EXTRACT FROM THE STORY* "Umm, hi James, Ana here... in case if this phone number does not seem familiar to you. I just wanted to see how you are... umm... so... how are you?... I'm good if that is what you were going to ask me..." I pause before letting out a sigh. "But not as good as when I am with you..." I say, not believing how freely I just said that. "I... I miss you... very much... I can't help but wonder if you feel the same about me... if you miss me too...". Then my mind goes blank. "I... I..." I begin, searching for a topic. "I hope you have a good stay in Belgrade... I guess me wishing that I could see you again would be a bit too much of a wish..." I end my words with a giggle. I find myself, once again, walking around my living room. "Anyways, that is all that I wanted to say. I wanted to see how you are and if everything is okay. I also read that letter... you have a really beautiful way with words..." I say. "But how do you know I don't like being woken up?... Actually, I don't think anybody likes being woken up, so scrap that question..." I giggle, but then I shake my head. I am taking too long. "Sorry, this message must be very long by now, so I am going to finish now... I just... I really want to see you in person again..." I then once again pause as I look down at my legs that rub my carpet. "Anyways... that is all I have to say... see you- I mean, probably not really, but I am hoping I'll get to see you, you know...". A sigh escapes my lips. "Bye..." I say before distancing my phone from my ear and press the red button.

In the primeval world of Ur, the thirteen Major Gods dictate fate. When Caius transmigrated into the third son of House Draxos, he realized two terrifying truths. First, he was the destined Main Villain of a dark fantasy epic, fated to be executed by the righteous Protagonist. Second, after being rejected by his family patron, the God of War, the original Caius formed a pathetic contract with a dying Minor God of Ash just to attend the Divine Academy. To the world, he was a laughingstock but Caius quickly knew that the Protagonist destined to kill him is no hero. He is the psychopathic reincarnation of the God of Light. His grand quest to gather the most powerful maidens is actually a massive slaughterhouse. He intends to groom them, harvest their divine contracts, and sacrifice them to devour the authorities of the thirteen Gods for ultimate supremacy. To survive his execution and shatter the reincarnated God and his perfect game, Caius relies on the cheat that finally finishes loading in his mind. [Ding! You have awakened the Monthly Sign In System.] It was a system that was activated only once every thirty days but when it does, reality breaks. For his first monthly rewards, the System gives him an overpowered grimoire and forcibly binds his soul to the ultimate anomaly: Ereba, the Chained Goddess of the Void.

Now operating from the shadows, Caius steals the doomed heroines before they can be harvested. As the global fate rewrites, the reincarnated God watched his flawless harvest violently unravel. Wait, how is a failed noble devouring the Gods?!

The world of Eldoria is governed by talent. At the age of eighteen, every person undergoes an Awakening that grants them a unique ability—one that determines their social standing, access to resources, and future potential. Powerful talents lead to influence and protection, while weak or failed awakenings condemn people to ordinary lives on the fringes of society. As dungeons continue to appear across the land, releasing increasingly dangerous monsters, humanity relies on those with strength to survive. Academies train the gifted, rankings shape ambition, and secrecy surrounds abilities, as revealing one’s talent too early can be fatal. In this rigid system, where power follows fixed paths, a single student from a rural academy steps forward on the day of awakening—carrying a talent that does not follow the rules.
