Against The World by Cezar Marcilio


In a non-distant future, a corporation named Sims Corp creates a system to transfer and store all memories and consciousnesses of the population in a perfect virtual world. This system is named Cloud, where everybody lives happily after death. This system replaces the idea of heaven with a computer program created by humans. Thus, this corporation gets to privatize the concept of life after death and also eliminates people's fear of the question “where will we go when we die?” Beyond that, there is no longer the necessity to follow any kind of religion because if everybody knows where they go after death, religious beliefs become useless.

However, Cloud ends up disturbing the universe over the years, causing creatures named Angels to break into our world. They want to destroy this corporation that blocks humans’ souls from ascending to other stages beyond life on Earth. Eventually, the populations of Angels and humans decrease while the population within the Cloud System continues to increase. One of these Angels is Muriel, a kind of messenger of an upcoming apocalyptic war between Angels and humanity. Muriel alerts that the unique way to maintain the equilibrium of the universe and avoid this battle is to destroy Cloud.

In this futuristic scenario, we follow the drama of the young Antony Sims, a gifted and brilliant scientist, and the heir of Sims Corp, who completely disagrees with his family’s business and the existence of Cloud, created by his deceased grandfather, Allan Sims. However, he knows he’s the last hope to protect the world against this possible apocalypse. Along with his new friend Glenda an experienced robot pilot, Antony creates powerful giant robots capable of protecting Cloud Base — the huge building that houses all computers where everybody in the world lives after physically dying on Earth.

Throughout this adventure, Antony unravels secrets about terrible goals of a global government and his own family in a journey that culminates in an epic battle between an army of Angels and giant robots piloted by soldiers. Who will win this battle? The answer will certainly impress you.
