Worldbound

Liam was born into a world that never wanted him. Raised in an orphanage, scorned by society, and left with nothing but loneliness, he lived a life of pain—until the day he died saving the only friend he ever had: a stray dog. But death wasn’t the end. It was the beginning. Awakened in a realm beyond life, Liam meets Goddess Ava, who offers him a second chance in a new world—one filled with monsters, magic, and mystery.

In a world where dungeons shape society and power is tracked by the System, Liam, a reincarnated solo adventurer, refuses to bow to the rules of guilds, ranks, or tradition. Branded an outsider and denied official clearance, he begins his journey by tackling a deadly unclaimed nest, proving his strength without permission or recognition.

Liam has reached the kingdom of Aurinar, unrecognized, unaffiliated, and ready to rise. But in a land where power is measured by dungeon ranks and strength is public record, he has no choice but to start from the bottom. E-Rank. No allies. No fanfare. Until fate pairs him with two others: Kael, a sharp-tongued elemental duelist, and Ayla, a calm and steady barrier mage. Together, they form the Golden Dragons, a party no one expects, yet everyone begins to fear. As Liam blazes through dungeon after dungeon, the world watches.
