Chapter 1: The Immortal Curse

"He stole from the gods. They cursed him with eternity. Now, he'll risk everything for a second chance at death."

For 500 years, Axiou Blaze has wandered the stars-an immortal outlaw, once a feared bounty hunter, now a man haunted by a curse he cannot escape. Cursed by the gods for stealing a forbidden power, Axiou seeks the legendary Free Element, a mythical substance said to grant any wish, even the undoing of eternal life.

Aboard the flying ship Benevolence, Axiou is joined by a crew of the extraordinary:
- Ayame, a fearless swordswoman and Axiou's love, willing to risk her soul to save him.
- Ryssa, an elven bard whose music can bend reality.
- Kiro, a prodigy wizard grappling with dangerous magic he can barely control.
- Caden-X93, a battle-hardened cyborg chasing lost memories of a life stolen by war.

Together, they travel across dying worlds, haunted realms, and shattered skies-pursued by the ruthless Black Reign and its dark general, Ashclaw, who seeks the Free Element for dominion over the known galaxy.

But each shard of the Element demands a sacrifice.

As Axiou's immortality begins to unravel and buried truths rise from the shadows, he must decide: Is his curse a punishment... or the key to something far greater?

FREE ELEMENT is a sweeping saga of cosmic danger, forbidden love, redemption, and the price of tampering with fate.
