Description: [edit] [history]

A scientist dies and is reborn into a world full of mysteries and conflict. Raised in a peaceful village by a loving family, he finds that his endless hunger for knowledge, discovery, freedom, and progress quickly leads him toward trouble. His goal is simple, uncover every secret this world has to offer and learn everything he can about the laws and forces that govern his world. A dangerous goal, when such knowledge is feared by those in power.

This is a world where great beasts and tyrants wage war amidst the ruins of fallen gods and sleeping titans. A world where mighty kingdoms and powerful nations can rise and fall in mere days at the whims of ancient champions and colossal monsters. A world where the secrets to gaining power are guarded jealously by those who have it, and who will do anything to keep them secret.

A world where those who seek knowledge are unwelcome, where those who question authority are slaughtered, and where those who know the truth must keep it hidden, or be hunted down to the very ends of the stars. Axiom is all three. And he has no intention of letting anything stop him.

This is the tale of a war between the masters of this world and he who would have all their secrets unveiled if only he were given the slightest chance.

He was given far more than just the slightest chance.

About the tags. I honestly have no idea where I want to take this story, although I do have a few general ideas and directions. I have the tags set up the way they are to give me some freedom to right later on and serve as a warning so people don't complain too much If I ever decide to include such things.

What to expect:- No romance for a very long time.- An MC with a focus on learning rather than just growing stronger.- An MC who is willing to share his findings with those he trusts.- An MC who doesn't feel like he has to do everything on his own.

What NOT to expect:- A socially awkward MC who doesn't know how to talk to girls.- A dumb MC who can't figure things out when they're obvious.- An instantly OP MC. He'll be OP, but only after a lot of work.

Note: I tend to reuse ideas I like between my books, so you might see some similarities between this story and my other story, The Multifarious Dungeon. They are not in the same world, multiverse, or canon. I just applied some of the same concepts because they happen to work.
