Not too long ago, Lukas Aguilar believed only what he could see and feel for himself. Then an earthquake destroyed his home and cast him into a dangerous dungeon world. He fought to survive, gaining experience and levels but losing the goddess Inanna who inhabited his mind. And he wants her back.

In seguito all'improvvisa morte dello zio, la ragazza del carbone si ritrova sola e sperduta nelle strade di Hellhall, la Città del Fuoco. La situazione è resa ancora più difficile dalle sue origini. È una mezzosangue Aeldae, il popolo che per centinaia di anni ha schiavizzato gli uomini delle Terre Frammentate. Emarginata e scacciata dalla sua stessa città, le resta solo una speranza: una moneta speciale in grado di garantirle l'accesso alla famosa Accademia di Rupe Tempestosa , il centro per eccellenza di addestramento alle arti magiche e marziali delle Terre Frammentate.

Lukas Aguilar used to think he knew everything. Mainly because he believed only what he could prove for himself. No gods, fate, or any such nonsense for him. But that seems like a lifetime ago. Because when an earthquake destroyed his earthly home, he suddenly found himself in a dark dungeon world where gods and monsters are all too real—and supreme goddess Inanna had taken up residence in his mind. Upon learning the rules of his new existence—levels, skills, abilities—Lukas fought his way from victory to victory. That is, until he came up against an anomaly that got him killed.

Lukas Aguilar does not believe in gods. Despite—or perhaps because of—his deep knowledge of mythology and lore, Lukas has always valued what is practical, factual, and verifiable, eschewing faith for what he can see right in front of him. That is, until an earthquake destroys his home, and he wakes up in a dark cavern infested with bloodthirsty and unearthly creatures, wielding strange powers and hearing an even stranger voice in his head claiming to be a goddess.

O que Kallik mais queria era encontrar a entrada para Underhill — o lar ancestral dos feéricos, e que desapareceu aparentemente por culpa dela —, e, quem sabe, poder começar a levar sua vida de forma tranquila. No entanto, quando se vê acusada pelo assassinato do rei da corte Seelie, agora ela precisa, além de tudo, provar mais uma vez sua inocência. Ela só não esperava que receberia ajuda da corte rival para escapar e continuar sua busca por Underhill — e muito menos que a rainha dessa corte iria designar o homem por quem Kallik é apaixonada desde sempre para ser seu protetor nessa missão.

Now that Guardian Angel Z357 is dead, there is nothing left standing in the path of Kallistus Kal and his one true desire.

However, when everyone turns to her to save them, she will have no choice but to choose between her normal life and being a hero once again.

But even as Alexandra and her allies celebrate their victory, malevolent automata from an age long past move to destroy them. The fight with Seraph might have ended in Alexandra's favor and left her more powerful than ever, but it came with dire consequences.

The young woman from Earth was far too preoccupied with her growing business. The crazy stories of angels and elves working in Bucky's Out of this World Restaurant have spread far and wide, attracting all sorts of individuals, ranging from friendly [Knights] to annoying adventurers.

They are forced to make more and more unsavory alliances to stay ahead of their foes.
