ablaze with malice

In a world in ruin, Eren Veylen stumbles upon a powerful and sinister book—the Grimoire of Infinite Malice. The book, which feeds on life, souls, and essence, offers unimaginable power in exchange for a pact. As Eren accepts its dark offer, he embarks on a path that will consume his humanity and transform him into something far more dangerous. The grimoire craves sustenance, and its power knows no bounds. Can Eren maintain control, or will he be lost to the evil that now resides within him?

The region of Turfazia, shaped by the existence of the only two surviving kingdoms — Dirfázia and Akatlon — stands on the edge of war.

In a world where summoned "heroes" slaughter everything in sight to grind levels and chase glory, Alex Winewood is the anomaly that breaks the script[. He doesn't care about the crown. He has zero interest in a holy crusade. He only wanted the Holy Sword because a ceiling exists, and he has a highly logical desire to climb past it. Dragging along a runaway Queen who ran from her paperwork, a dark witch who was taught to hate the world, and a blonde idiot who thinks he’s a chivalrous leader, Alex navigates the treacherous northern wilds with a single goal: absolute, unbothered equilibrium. To the righteous, he is a heartless blasphemer. To the victims, he is a cold, mechanical savior. To the wicked, he is an unpredictable wall of physical force. While the rest of the world judges a person by the labels they wear—labeling them as "pure" humans, "impure" witches, or "feral" demi-humans—Alex looks past the flesh entirely. He sees the quiet truths inside people that they themselves are too blind to recognize. He sees the heavy, festering burden of pain hiding behind a hero's righteous anger; he sees the desperate desire for simple love buried beneath a dark witch's terrifying curse; and he sees the fragile, shaking fear of a crowd that throws stones just to avoid being the ones in the fire. He holds up an objective, brutal mirror to their souls, exposing their delusions with a single, quiet sentence. "We suffer in the mud, expecting heaven to grant us eternal peace. I say we just stop lying to ourselves, and build what we can while we are still breathing"
