A selfless sacrifice to an ancient god gives a bitter slave a reason to live and a baby to raise.
The blood awakening of an ancient god strikes a cruel bargain with a slave named Julian: an innocent life in exchange for extraordinary powers—ones he must use to protect a helpless baby in a cruel and violent world!
Sold into slavery, Julian has known nothing but pain. All that changes when he experiences kindness for the first time. But fate has plans for Julian when an ancient god bestows extraordinary powers upon him that he uses to protect his charge, the baby Diana. After settling in a village, rumors of a foul monster murdering villagers prompt an old hunter and a towering knight to track it down. But there’s more to this monster than it seems, as Julian finds out the hard way when he joins the battle.
