I Touched the Wrong Tree and Now I’m Cursed by Fate

ForsakenStudio
Ren Kamizuki was just an ordinary high school student—until the day the sun dimmed, and his world was torn apart. After witnessing the brutal slaughter of his family and the disappearance of his little sister, Ren awakens in a surreal, divided realm—half light, half shadow. Caught between two impossible choices and haunted by a voice calling him Akira, he touches a cursed tree that floods him with pain, rage... and purpose. Now, reborn in a world where every soul is tethered to a spiritual tree reflecting their inner self, Ren discovers his own: a towering, obsidian monster known only in legend as The Tree of Chains. Its existence should be impossible. Its power is feared. And at its center lies a single, glowing fruit—his sister’s soul. Marked by a forgotten destiny and hunted by those who would destroy or control him, Ren must unravel the truth of who—or what—Akira really was. With vengeance in his heart and a war between light and darkness stirring, he has only one goal: To find his sister. To uncover the past. And to burn down anyone who stands in his way. But in choosing darkness... What part of himself did he leave behind?

The Greatest king

In the vast Nazare Blade Empire, ruled with an iron hand by Emperor Groa Aratat, there existed eight princes, each striving for recognition and power. Among them was Josh Aratat, the most obscure and least acknowledged of the emperor’s sons. Born of a mother who passed away when he was just a child, Josh grew up in the shadows of his more celebrated brothers, his heart burdened with loss and his life marked by solitude. One fateful day, Emperor Groa decreed a challenge: each of his sons was to venture into separate regions of the empire, conquer them, and win the loyalty of their people. The prince who demonstrated the greatest strength, strategy, and ability to amass supporters would be crowned the imperial prince—the heir to the throne. The empire buzzed with speculation. Most believed the title would go to the mighty firstborn, Balek Aratat, renowned for his unparalleled strength. Others placed their bets on the cunning second-born, Jaden Aratat, or the skilled third-born, Gerard Aratat. Few gave any thought to the younger sons, particularly the sixth to eighth—Josh included. In their eyes, he was merely a shadow, unworthy of mention in the race for the throne. But everything changed when Josh encountered a dying man, condemned to execution for the crime of stealing bread. Wracked with despair and tired of his own existence, Josh made a startling decision—he offered to take the man’s place, embracing what he thought would be his end. Yet, in an unexpected twist of fate, death did not claim him. Instead, Josh emerged from the ordeal with a newfound power—an extraordinary ability granted as a result of his selfless act. This gift would not only alter the course of his life but also shake the foundations of the Nazare Blade Empire and the world beyond.
