Nobody Likes a Failure

By Kathakar

"When Perfection Fades, Only Ashes Remain."

Reyansh, a prodigy molded by the ruthless expectations of Indraya's Core, lives a life of relentless pursuit-perfection or nothing. In a world where failure is a crime and mediocrity leads to exile, Reyansh strives to meet impossible standards. But beneath his flawless exterior lies a storm of anxiety and fear, threatening to shatter everything.

When a crack in the facade of Core's perfection exposes a chilling truth, Reyansh's world spirals into chaos. As he confronts the grim fate of the Hollow Wards-obedient souls stripped of identity-he realizes that perfection has a price. The price is his very soul.

Torn between duty and rebellion, Reyansh must make an impossible choice: to uphold a broken system or let it collapse and embrace the ashes. But in a world where failure is unforgivable, even a flicker of defiance can set fire to perfection.

Will Reyansh rise from the ashes... or become one of them?

The Ashes of Perfection is the first gripping volume of the Nobody Likes a Failure series-a tale of rebellion, sacrifice, and the haunting cost of chasing perfection.
