'The scriptures say the faithful feel peace at the end? Those are just full of shit' Raziel died a martyr, slaughtered in his own cathedral the moment a Player fell from the sky, labeled his world a "Server," and reduced him to nothing more than a prologue NPC.

A talentless monkey in the eyes of every sorcerer, orphaned by Cursed Spirits that butchered both his parents, he nearly died the same way they did. Then, on the knife's edge of death, he obtained the "Simulator". No room for trial and error in the real world? Fine. He'd pay for every lesson in blood inside the Simulator.

Thrown onto the front lines as a meat shield by the Zenin Clan. Marked for extermination by Special Grade Curse Users who considered him a remnant of the old era.

In a world where devils are a nightmarish reality and Japan stands as the epicenter of ultimate darkness, a relentless war has raged for millennia. At its heart lies "The Flower: The Creator of the Living"—the primordial source of all existence. Akos, a formidable sorcerer, is the world’s final defense. He is the wielder of the "Infinite Eyes," a legendary power that is neither a technique nor a gift but Nature’s own response to existential threats. The Infinite Eyes manifest only when the world is on the brink of collapse, making Akos the only being capable of stopping the atrocious Yugo Kanji. Unable to kill a force of nature, Kanji devises a sadistic masterstroke: he imprisons Akos within a "fake world." To ensure his suppression, Kanji forges a pact with the malevolent entity "DEVILS END," turning Akos into a living vessel for the demon. Every day is a losing battle for Akos. Inside this simulated reality, DEVILS END exerts total control over his mind, weaving a web of hallucinations and lies. Akos wanders through his life as a member of the "ALPHA" gang, lost and broken, haunted by visions of things that do not exist. As the demon erodes his sanity, Akos struggles to distinguish truth from the nightmare projected into his brain. But the simulation is not perfect. While Yugo Kanji sends rival gangs to eliminate his physical form, eerie discrepancies in the Fake World’s history begin to surface. Through the fog of the demon’s lies, the Infinite Eyes are starting to twitch. Will Akos regain control of his mind and shatter the illusion, or will the demon’s whispers extinguish the world’s last hope forever?

An actor on Earth, living a life scripted and predictable, never imagined that the world he knew could vanish in a heartbeat. One moment, he was performing for the camera; the next, he awoke in a foreign land—alive, yet transformed. Here, he is no longer just a man—he is a concept user, a rare being capable of manipulating the hidden threads of reality itself. Thrown into a world teeming with Thrones, secret factions, and the invisible architecture of the Infinite Weave, he must navigate a landscape both dangerous and enchanting. His Earthly experience gives him insight and cunning, but power alone cannot prepare him for the bonds he will form—or the losses that will define him. As he rises, forging his path through love, betrayal, and strategy, he chooses to stay in this world rather than return home, only to lose the one who anchored his heart. Consumed by grief and ambition, he ascends to create the Chaos Throne, threatening the delicate balance of the world. But the Thrones and the Weave will not allow chaos unchecked. Before he can claim ultimate dominion, intervention forces him into the shadows. What was thought erased survives, becoming the first conceptless observer, silently shaping the future—and foreshadowing the arrival of Eryndor. Transmigration of Chaos is a tale of power, strategy, love, loss, and the intricate threads that bind fate across worlds. From the spark of arrival to the creation of a throne, it explores how one soul can ignite the delicate balance of a universe and leave an echo that cannot be undone.
