The Alchemist Kingpin

Reincarnated not as a hero—but as a menace in the making. Sebastian Knox was a brilliant, reclusive chemist—more comfortable with lab notes than people, more focused on discovery than fame. But a catastrophic experiment gone wrong ends his life in an explosion of light and searing pain… only for him to awaken in an alien forest beneath a storm-darkened sky. He’s not in a lab anymore. He’s not even on Earth. Armed with nothing but his scientific mind and fragmented memories of the modern world, Sebastian must learn to survive in a realm brimming with magic, monstrous flora, and mystical forces that defy logic. But this isn’t a heroic tale of swords and spells. He has no prophecy guiding him, no system screens or benevolent gods offering help. Just raw instinct, hunger, and the burning curiosity to understand this new world on a molecular level. As Sebastian begins to tap into the natural arcana around him, his chemist’s curiosity twists into something darker—alchemical concoctions that alter minds, bodies, and fate itself. In a world governed by guilds, kings, and heroes, Sebastian chooses a different path: empire through elixirs, domination through drugs. A new identity is born from the ashes of the old. A man with no allegiance. A man with the means to manufacture power. Not a savior. Not a chosen one. Just a man building an empire from nothing. And the world has no idea what’s coming.
