Born in Blood

His mother died when she gave birth to him, his father a physically abusive alcoholic. Life is not kind to Darius King. Darius would have dreams of being in a world of magic, but alas, his dreams would always end. He hated life, and life hated him, so he ended both his and his father's. When reincarnating into a peasant-like lifestyle as Liam, in the town of Ucladd, Darius realizes he has entered the world of cultivation! With his ambitious, ruthless, and curious nature combining into one, he paves a bloody path to power. Shifting his gaze from the Earth towards the Sky, nothing will stop him on his path for strength. "I will touch the stars... or die trying." ==================== Note: NO R-18, R**e, Romance or pre-marital handholding. I take no pleasure in writing such things. There's a bunch of killing and gruesome descriptions though. The novel is a bit slow in the first chapters, but after that, it picks up and gets significantly better. Also, the power system is similar to BotDS, but I've asked the author for permission to use it. It's also heavily inspired my writing, but the beginning is where its most prevalent.

Worse

As the three powerhouses found themselves on the same floor, the atmosphere tightened to a razor's edge.

Alucard's presence forced Liam not to obey Queen Thyress' command and leave. If he did, that'd probably make the Pashah look bad. 

And by extension, offended.

Those who found themselves there of the non-powerhouse variety wanted nothing more than to leave… but they couldn't find the correct opportunity to do so.

Instead, they lowered their heads and pretended they were busy eating or drinking.

The air was too heavy.

Liam wanted no part in this either, but not because he couldn't handle the rigid atmosphere. 

In reality, there was no secret pressure weighing against everyone's chest. 

With their strengths sealed, the powerhouses were just regular people as of now.

It was just their psyche playing tricks on them. 

Liam, on the other hand, just couldn't be bothered making things worse for himself.
