Everyone Except Me Is Hiding Their Power
Synopsis
They drag Lian Gwendil to the scaffold at dawn. The stone is still wet from the last poor fool’s blood when the blade comes down on the only man in the capital who truly believes he’s weak.
Execution should have been the end. Instead, Lian wakes up gasping in his narrow bed, years earlier, with the taste of rust on his tongue and the memory of every betrayal still bright and sharp. The commander who smiled as he signed the warrant. The friend who looked away. The quiet servants and timid nobles who, one by one, tore off their masks and revealed the monstrous strength they’d hidden until it was too late for him to matter.
This time he knows: he has always been the only honest fool in a city of liars. Everyone around him is tucking miracles up their sleeves—sealed bloodlines, forbidden magic, power folded small and neat like a letter never sent. They walk the same corridors as before, say the same casual words, but now Lian can hear the weight behind them.
Armed with a dead man’s memories and a body that still flinches from a blade that has not yet fallen, Lian starts to move differently. He bites back the instinct to trust. He files away smiles like evidence. He learns to hide, to bargain, to lay his own traps in the shadows where their powers once crushed him.
Revenge is no longer a grand vow shouted at the sky. It’s the quiet decision to live long enough to watch every masked face crack, even if it means becoming something far more dangerous than the helpless man they killed the first time.
