The fan in Alexis Prince's room sounded like a dying mosquito.
His laptop was older than some countries' economic policies, its screen held together by duct tape and quiet desperation. But on that screen, the world was ending. Or rather — being conquered.

Dominant Nexus: God's Axis – Supreme Protocol
Uploading Completion Logs...
Alexis leaned back in his creaky plastic chair. A flicker of static danced across the screen. Outside, traffic blared. A cat screamed. A baby cried. The universe didn't care.
But he did.
Three years. Thousands of hours. He hadn't just played World Domination — he authored it. Built his own mythos within it. While other players tried to win through brute force or cheesy exploits, Alexis created something else entirely.
God's Axis.
A secret organization without a face, flag, or fail state. An empire that didn't announce itself with banners but moved like whispers in a burning room.
His alias in-game?
Adam. A shadow among shadows. The first and final signature of all operations.
No one knew who led God's Axis. Not even the simulated world it controlled.
Until now.
He exhaled. That was it. Game over. The end.
Except…
The laptop didn't shut down.
Instead, the screen blinked. Glowed. Changed.

Alexis stared. Blinked. Checked his coffee. It was cheap and cold — definitely real. So… what was this?
Then came the message:

His spine tingled.
Then came the feeling — the sudden, sharp weight of knowing. His body hadn't changed, but somehow… it had. Every motion felt exact. Every breath, measured. As if his muscles had remembered training he never received. His mind processed room layouts faster, tracked sounds more sharply.

He stared.
He wasn't dreaming. He wasn't hallucinating.
God's Axis — his creation — now existed.
No powers.
No chosen one story.
No ancient bloodlines.
Just a system… built on logic, tactics, and silence.
Then, a flicker on screen.
A symbol appeared:
A minimalist crown behind an open eye — simple, sharp, terrifying.
The Veiled Crown.
[☗]
The mark of God's Axis.
He hadn't created that.
But it felt like something he would have.
"It's not a logo," he whispered. "It's a warning."

He turned to his cracked mirror. Staring back at him wasn't a warlord or villain. Just a broke student with messy hair and $3 in his account.
But somewhere out there now, real agents were waiting. Real resources were moving. Real operations… had already begun.
And all of it — the myths, the structure, the silence — bowed to one unseen god:
Adam.
He smirked.
"Guess I run the world now."
