Synopsis

‘Heroes are idiots who spout idealistic nonsense and expect to win because they are right; the world is cruel and only those who are smart and strong can win,’ such is the mantra of Omni Genui, the protagonist of Order of Turmoil; an epic fantasy book bringing out magic from Anime that showcases that you must be tough, relentless and brilliant if you want to survive in a high-stakes, cruel world which is full of proficient people with their own agendas.

Omni is a genius but lazy cadet in the military, which is unfortunately very active due to the incompetence of the universe’s Emperor. Omni’s finally sprung onto the action from a promise at the deathbed of his best friend. By getting revenge on the human-mermaid capable of destroying anything to atomic level with a mere flick of his hand, he rises through the ranks and becomes a captain of the X-regiment.

However, their very first mission goes awry and everyone—excluding Omni—dies. He’s shamed and suspended from the army because nobody believed his pathetic excuse. Almost given up, he’s consoled by his mother and determined to train under his savior. His determination and wisdom earning him the right to meet the wraith-lich master Bodhi and Leal Visio (another genius pupil except she also trains him sometimes), both with a dark secret they can’t afford to get out.

Omni returns with Leal as a companion to the army—except they don’t want him back. His uncovering of a big secret and great accomplishments earn him the attention of the Emperor.

Thus, the Emperor forces the responsibility of the universe on him.

Omni and Leal’s life is now forever changed as they’re thrown into the political chaos. Usually reliant on their superior wisdom, can they survive against a shadow entity, with its own valid reasons, effectively ruling the universe with wits at least as good as their own?

If this wasn’t enough, a ghost from the Bodhi’s buried past is moving behind the scenes. This wraith-human easily snatches everything away with his massive intellect and resources through brilliant psychological mind games. Betrayed by everyone—including himself—can Omni pull through?

The book makes a point of showcasing every conflict as a clash of intentions and philosophies rather than pure, black-and-white good and evil. The battles are heavily reliant upon tactics and strategy while touching and expanding upon some deep philosophical topics. It’s full of gems from a comprehensive study on strategy, politics, philosophy, and psychology.
