Web serial by Robert Wolf
In a world ruled by Icons, Corvin Valtieri was born without one — a living disgrace to a legendary Paladin House. In a desperate bid to fix his broken son, Corvin's father injected him with forbidden angel's blood. It didn't grant divinity; it awakened a slumbering darkness that defied everything a Paladin should be. Hunted by his kin and cast into slavery as dungeon bait, Corvin's life became a countdown to a bloody end. But when he finally falls in the depths of a forbidden tomb, the System doesn't find just another host — it finds a glitch in creation itself. Corvin is no longer the boy who was promised nothing. He is the anomaly in the world's design, and he's coming back to take everything they said he couldn't have.
