In a world where gods reign supreme, they play a perilous game every generation. Each deity selects an individual, be they a noble king or a humble peasant, to become one of the Chosen. These fortunate few are bestowed with the divine power of cultivation, making them immensely powerful. Yet, this divine blessing is a double-edged sword, as only one Chosen can ultimately rule, and the path to supremacy is paved with treachery and bloodshed.

Orion, a loyal and valiant warrior, finds himself embroiled in this deadly game when his closest friend, Tray, is unexpectedly chosen by a god. Orion watches in awe as Tray harnesses incredible powers, but their friendship is put to the ultimate test when the gods' sinister rules are revealed. The Chosen must engage in a brutal battle to the death to determine the ultimate victor.

Trusting in his friend's integrity, Orion fights tirelessly to protect Tray and ensure his victory. However, as the final showdown approaches, Tray shocks everyone by betraying Orion and ruthlessly ending his life.

Years later, Orion awakens, miraculously restored to life but haunted by the painful memory of Tray's betrayal. He embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind this shocking act of treachery.
