THE CHORDLESS BLADE Kael Veyron was supposed to die as a nobody. Fourteen years old. Chordless. Weak. Betrayed by the very friends he trusted most. On the night before his future was supposed to begin, Kael is murdered for a secret he never even understood. Then he wakes up. Alive. Fourteen again. But he is no longer the same boy. Inside his mind now lives the memories of the greatest swordsman the realm has ever known — a legendary warrior whose name became history. There is only one problem: Kael has the knowledge of a monster, but the body of a child. And at his side, an ordinary sword hides a terrifying secret. It grows stronger every time it tastes blood. In a world where the mysterious Chord determines a person's strength, status, and destiny, Kael has none. Being overlooked kept him alive once already — this time, he means to use it. As Kael rebuilds his broken body, masters techniques no fourteen-year-old should know, and secretly climbs toward a power the world cannot comprehend, one question follows him: Why was he murdered in his first life? The answers lead to an ancient sword, a forgotten legend, the military academy, and powerful people who would kill again to keep the truth buried. Kael wanted a second chance. He got one. Now he must decide what to do with it. Will he become the warrior whose memories live inside him? A monster shaped by betrayal? Or something the world has never seen — A hero without a Chord.
