Synopsis
The world has been devastated by runestone beasts, and humanity places its hopes in rune bearers who fight to reclaim lost territory. Dongze is still an ordinary high-school student from the Huangshi District of the Reigu Region, but a game-like system changes his fate. As his abilities develop, he begins the path that will eventually make him commander-in-chief of the Eastern Warzone, where he will lead humanity's counterattack and drive the runestone beasts back toward the wormholes they came from.
King of Runes combines system progression with a post-apocalyptic monster war. The hook is the scale of Dongze's future: the story starts with an underestimated student and frames every upgrade, rune ability, academy challenge, and battlefield encounter as another step toward the commander who will eventually lead an entire warzone.

The series is built around a clear weak-to-strong system progression: Dongze begins as an ordinary student who is not yet qualified to stand among rune bearers, then uses the system to grow into the future commander capable of leading humanity against the runestone beasts.
