Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.4 mb
Overview: A burnt card. A dying father. A climb against impossible odds.
In the soot-choked depths of Shaft 9, nineteen-year-old Ethan breaks his back mining raw mana slag. With his father crippled by mana-poisoning and a crushing 50,000-shard debt owed to the ruthless House Valerius, Ethan’s future is written in dust, sweat, and despair.
Until he unearths a scorched, discarded card substrata in the mine refuse.
Under his mana touch, the dormant artifact reignites: [Deck Reset]—a rare temporal relic capable of rewinding physical reality by three seconds. In the brutal world of card dueling, three seconds is the difference between a shattered spine and a lethal counter-strike.
In the Astral Spires, cards aren’t just spells; they are survival.
Armed with a scrapper’s grit and a sharp mind for card synergy math, Ethan enters the deadly hundred-floor Astral Spire. Aristocratic High-Deckers dominate the upper tiers with inherited Legendary cards, private tutors, and bottomless wealth. But Ethan possesses something far deadlier than raw pedigree: the tactical foresight to turn trash-tier Common cards into an unstoppable combo engine.
To clear the Spire gauntlet, pay his family’s debt, and cure his father, Ethan must harvest volatile monster cores, master alchemical card forging, and outmaneuver aristocratic rivals who would rather see him dead than holding a winning hand.
