Trained since childhood by the Magic Ministry of Defense, elite mage operatives were never meant to wage war on other nations. Their duty was to stop the monsters pouring from dungeons around the world. But governments twisted their purpose.
During an infiltration mission in the collapsing nation of Fria, the protagonist and his squad discover a stolen nuclear weapon. Before they can stop it, the warhead detonates underground, killing everyone.
He expects nothingness. Instead, he wakes up to a girl shaking him awake in a world he has never seen. A world with magic, yes, but without nations driven by hatred. Without torture camps. Without political manipulation.
But the past does not stay buried. The spells he trained with still respond to him. The memories of the people he killed still weigh on him. And the shadows of his world may have followed him here.
Reborn in a foreign land, he must decide:
Is he a monster shaped by war, or a man with a chance to rewrite his fate?
