[Deals with Gods] + [Urban Fantasy] + [Dark World]
The gods descend, bestowing divine gifts.
This is a deal: trade a part of your body for power beyond that of ordinary people.
My name is Lu Yin. I thought I'd spend my whole life in the shadow of an incurable heart condition, until Anubis, the legendary god, appeared before me...
"Lu Yin! A once-in-a-million genius with a divinely gifted heart!"
I believed him.
I swept aside my peers, crushed my rivals, ventured alone into the dark city, and became a boundary marker between two worlds.
But I never expected that at the end of the divine path, what awaited me would not be a throne, but a command to kneel.
They want me to become an anchor for the old gods, drawing them back to this world.
Why should I?
The old gods are dead.
The new gods must rise.
