The Mafia Empire
The Mafia Empire tells the story of Julian Kesma, the third son of a poor farmer’s family in a decaying empire. After gaining memories from his past life as a shrewd businessman from Earth, Julian sets out on a dangerous journey to climb from the bottom of society to its very top. Battling poverty and social discrimination, he forms a gang from his fellow oppressed Guarths and dives into the criminal underworld, quickly becoming entangled in deadly political conspiracies. Through cunning, ruthless tactics, and a cold, calculating nature, Julian transforms from a struggling nobody into a fearsome mafia lord. As he gains influence in both the underworld and legitimate businesses, he manipulates his way into the political arena, aiming to dominate every aspect of society. His ambition extends far beyond crime, as he strives to reshape the empire itself.
