Gatebreak

When mysterious Gates begin appearing across Australia, humanity is thrust into a new age of monsters, magic, and survival. The creatures that emerge from these Gates are relentless. Goblins, gnolls, vampires, demons, and far worse horrors pour into the world, threatening entire communities. To combat them, humanity creates the Defenders—awakened individuals gifted with supernatural powers who enter Gates, hunt monsters, and prevent catastrophic Gatebreaks. For most awakened, power is everything. The stronger your rank, the greater your future. The weaker your rank, the more likely you are to be forgotten. Ahmed Al-Masri was awakened as an F-Rank Summoner. Weak. Unwanted. Dismissed by almost everyone around him. But Ahmed carries a secret older than humanity itself. Chosen by the ancient Egyptian gods Anubis and Horus, he inherits the mysterious DUAT System—a divine power lost to history. While the world sees a weak trainee Defender struggling to survive, Ahmed is quietly building an army unlike any ever seen before. Ancient Medjay champions rise to answer his call. Golden-winged warriors descend from the heavens. Armoured guardians, spectral hunters, war hounds, and forgotten champions of the afterlife gather beneath the banners of Anubis and Horus. With every battle, Ahmed grows stronger. With every Gate he clears, his army expands. And with every victory, he uncovers fragments of a terrifying truth. The Gates are changing. Monsters are evolving. Ancient enemies are returning. Beyond the Gates lies a forgotten war that predates modern civilisation, a conflict fought between divine powers and an empire that once sought to conquer countless worlds. Now that empire is stirring once again. Its servants have begun to appear inside the Gates. Its champions are marching. And somewhere in the darkness, a mysterious Emperor has learned that the heir of DUAT has returned. As rival Defenders compete for power, government investigators search for answers, and increasingly dangerous Gates threaten humanity, Ahmed must master his growing abilities while hiding the true extent of his power from the world. But secrets never stay hidden forever. Especially when entire monster armies begin falling before a single summoner. From the suburbs of Western Sydney to battlefields beyond Earth, Gatebreak is an epic progression fantasy filled with powerful summons, ancient gods, dungeon raids, evolving monsters, hidden mysteries, and explosive action. Follow Ahmed as he transforms from a supposedly weak F-Rank trainee into the commander of a legendary army capable of challenging gods, demons, and empires. Because some Gates lead to treasure. Some Gates lead to power. And some Gates lead to destiny. The Gates have opened. The war has begun. And the heir of DUAT is rising.
