Every civilization in embryo aspires to be Rome while the one on deathbed laments it. Inspired by Rome, Gods’ Gaze is an epic historical fantasy of multiple POVs relying on authentic stratagems of twists and turns. No one gets to Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo out of trouble. "All warfare is based on deception, like the theater." Evoking his late father’s words, Cato Duilius Claudius assumes the alias, Moon Xeator, and he vows to have his vengeance. In the upcoming years, he plots to restore the dual consulship, his father’s legacy, by bringing down the Praetor Magnum and the Triumvirate that slaughtered his family when he was a child. Aware that nothing would crush a man as much as the chink in his own armor, he sows suspicions among his foes and lures them into overreaching. He games the power structure in which all participants are corruptible. Those he keeps around, he taps into their fears, hates, and wants as grist for his mill. He turns his friends into pawns, as does his life a board of chess. But the game he plays cuts both ways. His vengeance also brings home the bitterest misery, which is to know so much and still have control over so little. And there is no return for him now. He can’t look back as there is nothing behind; nor does he dare look forward, knowing the road ahead. All he has is the time at hand, and it all slips through him into ruins like quicksand. When he trades in what he holds dear only to arrive at his destination, what will he find there when nothing can ease the pain of his losses? Fleshed out by his flaws, Xeator never meant to choose good over evil. His journey rings true that every important idea is only valid as in a paradox with an opposing idea, and the power to rise obliterates, too.

When one desires power the means they take to achieve that power gets more morally questionable the more they get it. The lines they took hrs to contemplate/cross on begins to take less time . Eventually they will cross a line they never thought they would. And look back and sign. They may regret it. But They won’t stop until there done. And I guess may never. But I won’t regret I will achieve my goals. Even if it leads to my eminent demise I wont halt my steps. You can call me Max. Max Elliot

He reincarnates into a good and well respected family and is the most talented in the world. But because of his laziness, and his thought process of “I’m probably the MC of some manga or anime,” he loses his family to what should have been someone he shouldn’t fear if he actually practiced and tried to get stronger. He only survives due to the his knee system, which doesn’t seem useful. Maybe he can turn everything around with his insane talent! But little does he know that even though he is the most talented, he’s still an amateur when it comes to getting revenge and making plans. ——————————————————————————— Author: Cultivation levels may seem similar to some novels but that’s cuz I’m not good with these type of things. ——————————————————————————— 5 basics- divided into Mind improving, flesh refining, blood replacing, meridian improving and sense improving.
