Path of a Hundred Echoes

Banyu lives for one reason: to protect his younger sister, Lestari, whose fragile health makes her a target for the arrogant scions of their city. He is powerless, until a desperate chase awakens the [Echo Step System]. For every step Banyu takes in the real world, one hundred parallel versions of himself train for an eternity in a time-accelerated space, turning the simple act of walking into an engine for exponential growth. A single stroll grants him the mastery of a veteran warrior; a day's journey, the power of a grandmaster. As he quietly amasses world-shattering strength to build a safe haven for his family, he draws the attention of Jati, a brilliant and ruthless prodigy. Jati has been reborn. He remembers a future where a monster named Banyu, drunk on his own infinite power, brought ruin to the world. Now, armed with knowledge of the future, Jati will do anything to stop Banyu's ascent. Can Banyu protect the one person he loves without becoming the very destroyer the world is destined to fear?
