Synopsis

The ritual proved successful, granting Ed a miraculous escape from a dying world and an opportunity to start a new life. What he did not expect was that this vibrant new world would be filled with dangers waiting around every corner.

Barely giving him any time to adjust, fate dealt its cruel hand once more. Ed lost his family and landed in the clutches of their enemies. But could this really discourage a talented alchemist, who has already accomplished the impossible once before?

Having escaped, Ed got another chance at a normal life. He has to start from scratch, but this wouldn’t pose a problem for someone who consistently defied the odds.

Ahead of him lies a new life in the capital, new friends and enemies, and a struggle to maintain his freedom. The abilities of a true alchemist are too powerful to escape the watchful eye of the authorities.

Will Ed be able to deal with the challenges, find balance, and finally live a normal life?

The Alchemist: Book 1

★ 4.3

Roman Romanovich

In his world, he was the last remaining alchemist, one of the few survivors living amidst the ruins of a once-great civilization. Refusing to give up on life, but seeing that nothing could save his home, he challenged himself to find a way out of such an inhospitable place.

After years of dedicated research, he devised a ritual to transport himself to another world. But the outcome was far from anticipated. Instead of mere displacement, he underwent a rebirth.

He ended up in a new body, a new world, surrounded by new threats lurking around every corner. And they primarily manifested themselves in the form of other people. Aristocrats of the ancient empire who fight for supremacy, demons capable of healing the most terrible wounds, and Walkers who have the ability to teleport anywhere they wished.

But a true master of alchemy does not allow himself to be perturbed. Edgar’s intelligence, skill, and alchemic knowledge are still with him, and the one who has once accomplished the impossible won’t go down without a fight, regardless of the circumstances.

Law of the Jungle (Book 13):

The law of the jungle is straightforward—all means are justified in one's pursuit of ascension. After all, it's the result that matters—not how you achieve it.

And yet the end doesn’t always justify the means—especially when the ascension of one requires the suffering of hundreds. The Heavens do not take kindly to such acts.

And so it came to pass that the Seekers have been forced to take matters into their own hands, bringing light to places where it had never shone before. However, the Bohao Cult has turned out to be far stronger than initially thought, with roots deeply embedded in both the human and demon worlds.

But who cares? The stronger the enemy, the better the spoils! The Seekers live by that principle alone!
