Five years ago, humanity’s strongest Tower Climber was betrayed at the peak of his conquest.Rael Arden, known only by his codename Phantom, was the silent genius who cleared impossible floors, crushed monsters with forbidden magic, and shaped the rules of Tower exploration. No one had ever seen his real face—yet his legend was feared across the world.But at the Tower’s summit, the teammates he carried to glory stabbed him in the back. For power. For godhood. For fear of what he might become.They thought he died.They were wrong.Reincarnated in secret, Rael awakens in a modern world that’s on the edge of collapse. Dungeons bleed into cities. Monsters evolve. The Tower is no longer just a gate—it’s infecting the world. And the very ones who betrayed him now rule from the shadows, hiding behind titles, guilds, and lies.But Rael isn’t alone. His soul split across hidden clone bodies, each designed to infiltrate, gather information, and prepare for war. As each clone reawakens, his power grows—and so does his rage.With him are three women tied to his fate:Selene, the shadow rogue who never betrayed him.Lyra, a curious researcher drawn to the legend of the Phantom.Aeris, the sword saint who still mourns his death… and may not be as loyal to the enemy as she seems.Now, Rael hunts the seven betrayers who destroyed his past.One by one, they will fall.But revenge is just the beginning.Because deep within the Tower, something else is waking—an ancient force that even Rael feared. And this time, the world may not survive unless the Phantom reigns again.

A rift tore open, crackling with heavenly fire.


From its heart descended three Executioners, each cloaked in celestial armor, halos burning crimson. No wings. Just judgment.


They pierced through the sky like meteors—headed straight for the Tower.


Rael stood before a massive sealed door. Symbols of ancient gods and forbidden knowledge glowed across its surface.


"I know that presence," he said, not turning.


"You always were one step ahead, even when the world hunted you."


She looked at him with stormy eyes—grief, anger, hope... all colliding.


Rael nodded. "And you've changed. You're stronger now."


"I prayed for you every day," she whispered. "Even when they said you were dead. Even when they called you a monster."


He stepped closer. "I was dead. And I am a monster now."


"Then let me remind you of what you were."


Before she could reach him, the tower shook violently.


A divine presence pressed down like gravity multiplied tenfold. Even Lyra gasped, forced to her knees.


Outside the Tower – Sky Splitting Apart


The three Divine Executioners landed on the world like gods of war.


The Tower flared in resistance. Dozens of hunters fled as the atmosphere thickened with holy intent.


From his vantage point, Seraph-Rael looked up.


"The extermination squad... they're breaking the rules."


He turned to Aeris, who now stood beside him. "If Rael kills them, the heavens will descend in full."


Aeris frowned. "Then maybe they should."


The Executioners appeared before Rael in synchronized flashes.


The lead one, cloaked in gold flame, pointed a burning spear.


"Rael Valtair. You walk with corrupted divinity. You've consumed what was never meant for mortals. You must die."


And Rael, now armed with Therion's stolen fire, fought three gods at once.
