The Man the World Erased: Covenant of Echoes

​"In the Ji Empire, your existence is only as thick as the ink in the Ledger of Souls. To be forgotten is to vanish into the Void." ​Shi Yi is a ghost in a silver robe. Known as the "Eraser," he lives in the fog-shrouded city of Ming, surviving by stealing the agonizing memories of others to fuel his own fading existence. Ten years ago, he committed the ultimate sin: he erased a Sovereign from the world's memory to save his life. He chose a world of silence over a world without him. ​Yan Jie was that sin. A man of crimson and gold, a sovereign whose name was stripped from every scroll and every mind—except for the echoes left in the wind. For ten years, he existed as a shadow, a forgotten king wandering the edges of the Absolute Void. ​But some covenants are written in blood that no ink can cover. ​When Yan Jie returns to the Crystal Bridges of the Empire, the silence is shattered. He doesn't just want his throne back; he wants the man who dared to forget him. As the Rulers of the Ledger awaken and the Empire begins to crumble, Shi Yi must face a terrifying truth: ​You can erase a name, you can erase a face, but how do you erase a heart that remembers what the mind has lost?
