RE: Lord of the Untamable
"I'll bite you. Right here," he pointed to his own arm, then his leg, then his neck, his smile widening.
"I'll bite and bite and bite until I feel the blood run down my teeth. Until you scream just like him." He took a step forward, his eyes never leaving theirs.
"Want to see how much you can bleed before you pass out?"

Hiroshi Watanabe and his friend, Owen were survivors of Zombie apocalypse and Black Dawn, a catastrophic event where the sun itself turned against humanity, scorching the earth and leaving only ashes in its wake.
But death was not the end. Hiroshi woke up gasping for air—not in the burning wastelands of Earth, but in the grand hall of a noble estate, surrounded by stone pillars and robed figures.
He found himself in the body of Axelius Dravenhart, the seven-year-old black sheep of the Noble Family of Dravenhart—renowned across the Kingdom of Elarion as the Greatest Beast Tamers for generations.
Yet, his new life was far from a blessing. Axelius was labeled a disgrace from birth: No mana core, mana-less, unblessed, and shunned during the grand Awakening Ceremony—a moment where nobles discover their affinities, whether it be Elemental Magic, Weapon Mastery, Spiritual Arts, or Beast Taming.
In a world dominated by powerful abilities and prestigious bloodlines, Axelius was nothing more than a powerless shadow, ignored by his own family and ridiculed by noble society.
But Hiroshi was no ordinary soul. Armed with the memories of surviving Black Dawn and the instincts of a warrior, he soon discovered a dark, hidden power within himself—a gift unlike any other.
While the Dravenharts prided themselves on taming majestic beasts, Hiroshi, now Axelius, held the power to tame the untamable: monsters. These terrifying creatures, feared from civilization for their uncontrollable nature, would bend to his will.
The Dravenhart legacy of taming would not be denied to him—not by blood, nor by fate.
