MTL - Engraved in Bone - Chapter 26 Divine Doctor and Demon 002

Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds.

With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations.

In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind.

However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.

If human life could continue to grow stronger indefinitely, reaching infinite heights, then one day it might connect with the heavens!

As a wandering soul trapped in endless cycles of reincarnations, Claus must decide what to do in his current life.
