The Villain's Ascension

At the age of ten, Loras' cultivation had already reached the mid-point of the Great Ascension realm. On the surface, he appeared to be a prodigy, a child with unimaginable potential. Yet, in reality, his true cultivation had already far surpassed that, hidden beneath the veil of a carefully constructed persona. The family, his peers, and the rest of the world remained blissfully unaware of the depth of his power.

But Loras had never been one to rest on his laurels. For the past several years, he had been playing the long game, carefully manipulating events to set the stage for his rise to the very top. The Doom family was merely the starting point. The world—no, the entire universe—was his for the taking. And now, at the age of ten, Loras had reached the moment where the world would begin to feel the weight of his presence.

His true cultivation, hidden from all, was approaching the False Immortal realm. With every passing day, his power grew, and his control over the Shadow Scorpion organization tightened. This organization, which he had quietly built from the shadows, was now ready to make its presence known. His influence had already spread across multiple realms, from the lower worlds to the middle worlds, and even into the Immortal world. But the real game had always been the upper world, and the moment had come to reveal his reach.

It started with a simple gesture—one that seemed insignificant to the outside world but marked the beginning of a major shift. Loras requested permission to leave the family palace and experience the wider world. To anyone else, it would have been a standard request, something that children of noble families often did to learn about governance, politics, and the cultures of other realms. But for Loras, it was the first step in a much grander plan.

As the heir of the Doom family, his request was granted without hesitation. The family was proud of him, believing that he would soon take on the mantle of leadership, guiding the family to even greater glory. What they didn't know was that Loras had no intention of simply inheriting power; he intended to take control of everything. This trip was not about learning—it was about solidifying his authority and preparing to dismantle those who stood in his way.

Loras' journey into the wider world was the beginning of his true ascension. Everywhere he went, he left behind a trail of fear, awe, and control. The Shadow Scorpion organization began to make its move, manipulating key factions, establishing new alliances, and eliminating anyone who might pose a threat to his growing empire. He used his vast knowledge of the future, gained through his memories of the novel, to stay several steps ahead of his enemies. He knew exactly who to target, what obstacles to set in place, and how to exploit the weaknesses of those who had once seemed invincible.

Within months, Loras had already begun to manipulate the most powerful figures in the Immortal and Divine worlds. He had made allies out of those who would have once seen him as a mere child, and he had crushed those who dared challenge him. The Doom family, while still under his influence, was now just one piece in a much larger puzzle. His real work had only just begun.

As he traveled through the worlds, Loras felt the familiar pull of power growing stronger within him. Every day, every moment brought him closer to his ultimate goal. His control over the Shadow Scorpion organization was absolute, and the influence he wielded over the realms was beginning to feel like the first stirrings of a god-like existence. But for Loras, this was only the beginning. The real test was still ahead—he had yet to truly claim his place as the supreme ruler of all worlds.

And as he looked toward the future, Loras knew one thing for certain: no one would stand in his way. Not the Doom family, not the other clans, not even the son of luck who might one day rise against him. Loras had already ensured that he would be the last one standing, and nothing—not even time itself—could stop him.
