by Lyaios Puppy·Translated by Novel AI Studio
In the bronze-choked sands of 2000 BC Lydia, Lyaios is a man blessed and cursed by the oldest powers. Granted physical immortality, he commands a loyal mercenary army, possesses vast wealth to brew lethal poisons, and wields the ability to summon iron-hard vines that bind his enemies at his whim. Yet, under the absolute rule of the Olympian gods, such power is a direct provocation. When his hot-tempered arrogance sparks a bloody clash with a regional cult, Lyaios must pit his physical eternity against divine wrath. Armed with mortal steel, dark alchemy, and his living vines, he wages a brutal, covert war against the heavens. To protect his men and secure his freedom, he must outwit gods who view mortals as mere playthings. But in this era of myths, even an immortal can endure a fate far worse than death if his fiery pride drives him to overstep.
