No one knows if it was built to protect the Empire… or to trap it.Reth, a 19-year-old from Earth, finds himself in this strange world. He has no great strength or magic, but a unique Obedience System forces him to serve Princess Asthia, the sharp and ruthless commander of the Serpent Wing.If he disobeys her, he suffers unbearable pain — maybe even death. If he obeys, he gains new powers and skills, growing stronger with every command.While the Empire’s Obedience Sigils keep its people in chains, Reth’s System makes him something different — a weapon, and Asthia’s personal bodyguard.Together, they face plotting nobles, rebel cults dreaming of life beyond the wall, and monsters twisted by corrupted mana.But as Reth’s Corrupted Intent — a cold, unshakable will — grows, so does his resistance to Asthia’s control. Their uneasy trust is tested when they uncover a secret about the Godspire’s true purpose.To protect Asthia and reveal the truth, Reth must decide whether to keep obeying… or risk awakening a horror that could destroy them both.

You guys may have read many cultivation novels with familiar tropes like system, talent, survival, evil, weak to strong, overpowered, and strongest from birth.For me, these are the most familiar MCs I have seen in the cultivation genre.I felt bored getting the same thing over and over. So, I decided to write a unique MC personality myself.Li Chen is the name I came up with for my MC, and he has a pretty unique personality.A personality that I formed for myself while reading these novels. But it isn’t a permanent personality; personality cracks when reality hits. It isn’t easy to adjust to a world filled with blood and continuous struggle where the strong prey on the weak.I never understood how someone could become used to blood in just a few days after transmigration.Whatever, you don’t need to worry about these things. My story is filled with over-the-top moments that relax your day and hidden depth for some readers who want some real-stick vibes in the cultivation genre.Your flashy op mc is still there, no worries, just a bit of my twist.Read at least 21 ch before deciding to drop it.
