[Death Transcript: Talent Active] Skill copied: Fog Form (G-rank) Timer: 23:59:46 Permanent Inscription Condition: Kill a target ranked above G-rank Warning: Proceed to higher floors. Liam Null killed a monster with a rock and stole a dead man's skill. The countdown has started. Every system awakening gives you a weapon. Liam gets a faded quill. Scribe, F-rank Civil Class. The worst inscription the Registration Hall had seen in a decade. No combat rating. No dungeon access. No future. But the quill does one thing no combat class can: it transcribes. Kill a monster, copy its skill. The catch? The ink fades in twenty-four hours. To make it permanent, he has to use that stolen power to destroy something stronger before the timer hits zero. Every fight is a countdown. Every stolen skill is borrowed time. And the deeper Liam pushes into the dungeon fantasy the Libraries conceal, the closer he gets to a truth the combat classes don't want exposed: scribes were never meant to serve. They were meant to rewrite the rules. His missing sister. A collapsing world. A progression fantasy built on impossible deadlines and permanent consequences. The clock is already ticking. What would you kill to keep?

As Ashen ventures into a world both strange and hostile, he becomes a living question that no one wants to answer: What happens when what you throw away comes back stronger?

Because one mistake, one failed claim, one moment of weakness… …and everything he’s built can collapse. Now the question isn’t whether he can rise. It’s how far he’s willing to go. And if he can be arrogant enough.

One of Uriel’s valkyries forges a forbidden relic capable of peering twenty years into the future. When Uriel gazes into the vision, she sees a nightmare: Neptunia has fallen. The Demon King reigns.

Yet their mission is the most crucial of all: prevent the White Witch from cursing the Hero, and save an entire world from destruction. Wolfheart is an isekai story that proves one thing: even the most ordinary soul can change the fate of a world.

Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. He makes decisions that those interested in hero complex protagonists may not find pleasant. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?
