The Scythe and The Devil

Pain was his birthright. Death became his crown...

Born beneath a cruel hand and sharpened under suffering, the boy known as Malric fled the fields of blood to escape further abuse from his father. In the dark, he made a pact: no more pain, in exchange for his soul.

But the Devil is never satisfied.

Bound by infernal chains and a cursed the task to reap a hundred million souls, Malric becomes more than a servant. He becomes Death incarnate, plague-bearer, and the first Reaper King. From Hell's flames he rises, not to serve, but to challenge. To shape the afterlife into something different.

Heaven watches, Hell trembles, and the dead begin to dream. This is not a tale of heroes. It is a requiem for the damned, adirge for angels, and the story of a boy who made Death his own kingdom.
