Synopsis

[VOLUME 2 IS UP!!!!] They wake up to the hooters, adults go to work, and kids go to school to obtain knowledge- wish they could say that, because this ain't no normal school. You get trained, you get points, get selected and have a bright future in sight. They call it utopia, but to them it was nothing more than a dystopia. Divided into FIVE sectors and two domains. Each sector do all sort of work just to get three meals a day, and the domains? Silver and Gold-enjoys the luxury of their blood and sweat in exchange of Ruh, the currency. Every sector gets the invitation letters from the domain, five lucky teens get a chance to be the crown, to get better education and support. A golden opportunity to be the part of the domain. Little do they know, sympathy? Towards the sectors? RIDICULOUS. Its a warning more like a symbol, every year, they remind the sectors, they were all at the mercy of domains. What's the proof? you ask. well, who knows. As none of the teens survived to tell the tale.

Chapter 1Prologue

She opens her eyes and knows immediately something is wrong. Nothing is familiar. The dark cloth, shutting out all but a tiny sliver of sunlight, what is happening? This hard surface.

This isn't her room.

With eyes still groggy from sleep or whatever. She is feeling weak, she relies on all her other senses to comprehend where she is, but she has no idea. She gather all her strength in her arms and pushed the ground to stand up. She was wobbling, her eyesight was becoming more clear, and as she became more alert, it only takes a few seconds to work out why this is.

She's bleeding, her head is injured and blood is dripping.

Forcing her eyes to focus, she looked around, its raining, she took a step ahead and an arrow came straight marching towards her eye, she rolled the other side, and the arrow passed scratching her cheeks. She ran and ran and ran, her chest is in a storm and her mind a mess. Huffing, sweating, dashing into trees. The arrows keep coming. Ankle twisted, she rolled down, and her muscles react, not fast enough this time. The arrow skids across her right calf. It almost felt like her leg is on fire. Trying to remove herself from the horror.

Everything went black. Her heart was beating fast. She opened her eyes and sat up. A drop fell on her hand, it was sweat, not blood. Her body ached, and she hissed.

"You are awake?"

"You? Wha-what's going on?"

"DON'T YOU REMEMBER? LUE?"

Her head is aching, she closed her eyes as she put her hands on it.

"LUE!! RUN!!" someone screamed, as the sword went inside out. A letter in which it's written: "GAME OVER".

Crossing thousands of moments in her mind. They burned every ounce of heart. Tears ran through her cheek.

What if, she never accepted the invitation?

What if, she didn't follow the system?

Great education and support, nice classmates, what a laugh.

The future, the time, the fate they have, can it be changed?

The time might flow in a different direction. Will it be good or bad?

Because when you are a guest here the hounds are out for blood. You can be the hunter or be the prey.

"I think, I might be a murderer."

"Let the HOURS OF DARKNESS begin!"

OLD-WORLD EXTRA

{Check out my new novel, Misunderstood Villain: Heroines Mourn My Death} 'Born In Ruins' was a forgettable read. That was the only way Emir could describe the pages of the novel he had found himself reincarnated into. The young man barely knew anything, but the snippets he had recalled only caused him unending sorrow... As what awaited him was only tragedy and an early death. It was a depressing story, one that he had planned to flip on its head—all for his salvation. — In this post-apocalyptic world, monsters fought humans and cyborgs in a battle for survival on a scale greater than ever before. A world where innocence and death were a luxury, where the line between heroes and villains was razor-thin. Within its expanse, 'Ancient Clans,' 'Galactic Federations,' 'Factions', and 'Corporations' presided over colossal 'Ruins' that dwarfed the concept of life itself. Survivors of the 'Third World War' continuously dove into the 'Old World,' 'Hunting' for 'Relics' in any ruin that they could find on Earth, desperate to reclaim 'Lost' technology, to stand a fighting chance against the inevitable. But it appeared that 'Earthkind' had met their match. …However, Emir would never allow that fate to take its course. — Emir unraveled layers of the tale and realized the truth of the world. He acquainted himself with the rules of this game before it fully consumed him. And now... no longer content with mere survival, he sought to dominate over the very fabric of this unforgiving universe. Emir shall rise from the pawn he once was, seeking to unravel the mysteries that hounded him. The boundaries of 'Aether,' his father’s disappearance, the noose hanging above his family’s head, and of course… his starless destiny, a fate he longed to control. This pursuit would earn him the epithet: "Prince Of The Fallen." ---------------------------------------------- *Tags: Reincarnation ;), Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Magical Realism, Academy (Volume 3), Romance, Apocalypse, {Anti-Hero. Villain.} *Expect this novel to start slowly; it begins ramping up at the halfway point of volume 1. *The Magic System is introduced at the end of volume 1, read my review and Auxiliary chapter for more on that. *Warning: The main characters have emotions like proper humans. So don't expect your usual emo kid as the MC and come complaining later.
