In a world that is defined by power, Lance stands out as the only enigma-nap, with no visible aim and a razor-sharp tongue. This lazy, sharp-tongued orphan, however, hides under the indifferent face a very sharp mind and single terrifying thought: 'Can I become a god?' He transforms that rather weird obsession into an obstinate path for becoming the controller of the very texture of society. Thus, in walking such cunning schemes, he really very well plans the things in a manner that all those who will be caught in the web don't know how they got entrapped. Ranging from the shadowy syndicates to ancient bloodlines vying for supremacy, everyone is just another piece on his board. Evelyn, heiress to a legacy now crumbling, has her own fights. Mysteriously, both parents vanished in relation to a top-secret research project. The thing preventing total destruction of the family's an ancient curse: utter ruin to any that lay a hand upon this bloodline-the protection has already started to fade. In a fateful meet with Lance, Evelyn would acquire an artifact capable of giving unimaginable superhuman powers. But one condition binds their uneasy alliance: equivalent exchange. Such were destined to forge alliances as well as betray and cut secret deals, and in such noise, Lance discovers the buried legacy of his own blod, a legacy that perhaps holds the key to his grand ambition towards godhood. Bloodlines are unveiled, as underground superhuman races come to light, and as secret organizations revealed their own conspiracy towards ascendencion. Lance sacrifices pawns in a larger game that only he can see in every moves. Even gods bleed. Will Lance maneuvers his enemies to rise to the throne of immortality or will his cold calculations be trumped by love, betrayal, and the unraveling secrets of his past?.

Chapter 1: The Whispers of a God's Dream
Chapter 1: The Whispers of a God's DreamThe sun was sinking low and taking its time over the sprawling cityscape of Meridian Heights, patting the skies in fiery orange and soft pink. Amid the chorus of honking horns, the screams of frantic street vendors, and hurried footsteps, there was an apartment that stood apart-it probably had to do with its unusually lethargic aura. Inside did lie Lance Drayton, docked in a threadbare couch, surrounded by books and gadgets strewn across the floor. He turned the pages of his phone in a lazy manner, and a faint, almost imperceptible smirk pulled at his lips."Another up-top day," he murmured, his satisfaction tinged with the contentment lacing his voice.The door to his apartment slammed open, and there walked a young man with disheveled hair, breathless face running on the flushed side. Nate, this was the name of the boy and Lance's childhood friend, self-appointed conscience."Lance! This can't go on," Nate huffed, leaning against the doorfram

The Godhood Algorithm Chapter 50: The Silent Pursuers
Chapter 50: The Silent PursuersThe trio of Lance, Kiera, and Elias had stepped out of the devastated temple. Silence fell eerie around its tall, dark structure behind them, bathed by fresh cool night air coming like waves. The map that Lance held was heavier than it should be, perhaps not so much in weight, but what it was carrying-power, secrets, and the beginning of a new game that he had set in motion and had every intention of winning. Kiera looked back over her shoulder to see because her sharp eyes could scan the darkness. "He let us go too easily," she muttered, clutching her daggers tightly. "I just don't like it." Still selling up his breath from their scurrying, Elias let out an ironic dry laugh. "Yeah, really a bucket of joy to run for our lives." Lance's expression remained cloistered. His mind was already raci

Lance, Kiera, and Elias stood together on the edge of the crumbling ruins of Lysander, the silence stretched around them in a thick oppressive shroud-the kind against which it felt hopeless even to fight. The first trial had been rough, but they went through it. There was no sense of triumph, however, only the biting knowledge that things would get murkier. Kiera swiped perspiration from her brow, her ever-watchful microlenses scanning the surroundings with a wary precision. ”So, what goes next, Lance? You have that look again.” Lance grinned with that captured gaze piercing ahead. "The trial isn't over yet." He turned to look at the huge, dilapidated temple that loomed farthest away. "That's where the real trial begins." Elias, still recovering from their previous exercise, sighed. "Great. And here I thought we already

Chapter 48: Shadows of the Nexus Their silence was shattered by the sounds from the Whispering Woods, at which the man-made city of Lysandar seemed to fade into the background, a notion lost in dreams. Compressed among his fingers was an old map as Elias hung his head, having been cast into a rare mood that sharpened the eye with dread. Tension ran within Kiera as she fiddled nervously by her bowstring, while Lance remained steadfastly, unblinking, forward. “We have what we came for,” Lance said, voice calm but firm. “Let’s move.” Elias released the breath he had held and shook his head. “You seem to forget how difficult this is. This map is not a mere guide, it's a warning. The nexus... it's sealed for a reason.” Lance’s eyes narrowed. “Then we’ll find out why.” Kiera sighed. “Of course we will. Because running towar

Chapter 47: Echoes of the Forgotten Past The pathway through Whispering Woods was long and eerie-in silence. It was rustling leaves above and the calls of distant creatures unseen below. Lance has taken the lead with his well-placed steps, senses in high alert, when glancing back every now and then added uneasiness to Kiera's footsteps. Elias seemed to fit into the whole picture, gracefully wandering around the twisting paths with an almost unnatural ease. "I don't like this," Kiera muttered to herself. "It simply doesn't feel right, too quiet for even a cursed forest." Lance gave a nod, agreeing, for he could feel her weighty words; in the air, there was that unnatural something, that pressed the deeper they went. His hand tightened around the hilt of his sword, with instincts yelling for him to be prepared. A sudden wind s

Chapter 46: The Veil of Secrets The flames from the campfire crackled and toppled in silence because the night seemed dark and quiet, while many dense trees stood watch over their temporary place of refuge. Lance sat cross-legged in front of the fire, staring wide-eyed at dancing bunches of flame. But the tongue is still busy in spite of the peace within. Above all, the faint light from the Heart of Ether hid beneath his cloak in a pouch, reminding him of what they carried with them and of the danger it posed. Kiera leaned back against the tree trunk and registered an expression that waffled between exhaustion and intrigue. "So what's next on the agenda, O Fearless Leader? Do we run until we drop from exhaustion or do you have a real plan?" Lance heaved a great sigh. "We might charge headlong, but we can't

Chapter 45: Ripples of Power The heart of Ether lay in Lance's hand, he could feel the unadulterated energy pulse singing in rhythm with his heartbeat, each pulse-throbbing beat brought warmth surging through his veins, invigorating him and sharpening his senses. It was exhilarating, yet overwhelming, as if the artifact was assessing whether he was worthy of wielding it. Kiera stepped closer, her expression a mix of awe and wariness. “You’re glowing.” Lance blinked, looking down at himself. A faint shimmer surrounded him, a soft, ethereal light that seemed to ebb and flow like a living thing. Coming mostly from a drawl, he muttered, "I guess it comes with special effects." “Special effects or a big bull’s-eye painted on one's back,” Kiera came back. “Hopefully we aren’t blaring our coordinates to the nearest power-crazed wannab

Chapter 44: The Crystal Caverns As the first light shone brightly over the day, Lance and Kiera travel eastward; the destination was the Crystal Caverns. As they kept moving, the air turned colder with a faint hum of energy pricking the skin-an indication that even the cavern was aware of their approach. "How far do you think it is?" Kiera asked, fine-tuning her cloak even further against the bite. "Not far," he replied, glancing at the map they had gotten from the Sage. "Maybe we'll get lucky and reach it before the Syndicate finds out." "Lucky?" Kiera snorted. "Since when has luck been on our side?" Lance smirked, but his thoughts scattered to other things; it echoed in his mind; the caution of the Sage with regard to the Heart of Ether-Garded by the Elemental Wardens, protectors of balance.

The Godhood Algorithm Chapter 43: Shadows of Resolve
Chapter 43: Shadows of Resolve The forest now had an ominous silence, after the din they had just been saved from. Lance and Kiera trudged on, their strained jealousy so evident between them while only the muffled squelch of leaves under boots remained as the energy being's roars had long faded into the distance. Kiera broke their silence. She ran a hand through her hair and said, "Okay. No more running. What's the plan? Because whatever that thing was back there, it is not going to stop itself." Lance didn't respond immediately. He fixed his eyes on the indistinct jags of clear moonlight cutting across the dense canopy overhead. His thoughts hustled and pushed through more and more possibilities. As they drifted off, he lifted his voice-blended fire with calmness. "We need answers. That creature was tied to that artifact, and it

Chapter 42: A Web of ShadowsThe darkness of the night hung heavy, as if the stars themselves had withdrawn, as Lance and Kiera sank deeper into the oppressive forest that surrounded the Iron Spire. Splintered moonbeams filtered through the leaves above and uncoiled a long, confusing pattern on the earth below. The slightest leaf crackle or far-off animal call seemed to sharpen their alertness. Lance's hand tightened on the hilt of his dagger, and Kiera's eyes flitted from shadow to shadow, searching for threats."Are you sure this is the right way?" Kiera asked, her voice almost lost against the sounds of the forest.Lance nodded. "The energy of the artifact is unmistakable. It's here. But we're not alone."They moved slowly, deliberately, to avoid snapping twigs or rustling leaves as they approached a clearing when suddenly,
