Chapter 179 - Deception in Battle [2]

John was born with no talent.

No power. Nothing special.

His family threw him out when they found out. Called him useless. Said he would only bring shame.

At just seventeen, he was abandoned.

He lived in the slums. Starved. Worked dirty jobs to survive.

Years passed, and for the first time, he thought he had found happiness. He met a woman.

She was kind. She smiled at him like he mattered. He fell in love. Married her. He thought he finally had something to protect.

But life was cruel again.

She cheated on him. With his best friend. In their own home.

When he caught them, they laughed. They called him weak and said that they were only pretending all this time.

That night, John walked to a bridge, ready to end it all. He didn't wish to live in this cruel world.

But someone stopped him.

A man in robes. A cult leader.

He didn't offer pity—he offered purpose. He told John the truth: the world is rotten. Full of lies. Full of monsters hiding behind smiles.
