To survive, I'll uncover the missing pieces and dive deeper into the unknown. I'll do good, sometimes evil-but no matter what, I will survive this damn world.

Fortunately, the Ghost Back System activated! Ghost Back Completion: 10% — Training efficiency increased by 100 times! Ghost Back Completion: 20% — Training efficiency increased by 1,000 times! ... One day, when Kai’s Ghost Back had fully awakened, he appeared before Luffy, who was shouting about wanting to go to sea— and scared Luffy into tears on the spot. Luffy: “Pirates on the sea… are they all monsters like my brother? I don’t want to go to sea anymore!” Garp: “Dragon and Luffy, those two brats, with their scrawny arms and legs, I always suspected they weren’t my real son and grandson. Now Kai—he’s the one who truly looks like my grandson!” Sengoku: “The strongest creature on land, sea, and air is Kaido? No—it’s Kai!” Want additional chapter? https://www.patreon.com/ZeusOp

Oban was just nineteen when the doctors told him the truth—his cancer was terminal. With only months left to live, he turned to desperate experiments, seeking a cure no one else could find. On a stormy night in 2018, his final attempt using the blood of a bat ended in failure… or so he thought. Instead of death, a mysterious system appeared before his fading eyes, offering him a choice: die here, or be reborn as Darkness. Oban chose survival. When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in his world. The year was 2083, and he found himself in a city called Transylvania—a place that shouldn’t exist.

To survive, he must embrace the darkness within him—because the world of 2083 hides monsters far greater than himself. And the system that gave him this second chance… has only just begun

A world where skill is everything, but for some reason, humans and monsters can use skill without using mana. It was bestowed upon them at the time they were born in the world. Humans who kill monsters for food and hunting skills, monsters' sole reason is to destroy the humans, and demons exist to torment the weak. A world that offers the life of collecting skills. Each one has their own specialty, strength, and power to take down the enemy. And those who have power join in the event of the kingdom, gaining fame and honor, an honor to fight and protect the kingdom.

What would you do if someone—or something—offered you everything you ever dreamed of? Power.wealth. Even a chance to rewrite your fate. In this world, nothing is given freely. Some trade their souls. Others their eyes. Just like the horror stories. But when my moment came… they didn’t want my soul. They didn’t want my eyes. They asked for my face. My name is Ross Mutt, and everything changed with a single phone call— a call that dragged me into a hidden war run by people who control more than governments, more than nations. People who decide who vanishes… and who never existed. I thought I was going to take them down. Until the day I heard that voice. A calm voice. A patient voice. A voice that had been waiting for me long before all of this began. “Rise.” That was my first glimpse—my first warning—that something far greater than my enemies had taken interest in me. And from that moment… my real fight began.

The self-harm drawback has been REMOVED! The spell now deals catastrophic damage and applies a powerful slowing debuff!] Armed with a talent that breaks the very concept of limits, Alvian’s rise is unstoppable.

He conquers the Overlords Academy Championship, forges a legendary weapon, and uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to tear humanity's last bastion apart from the inside.

With the Convergence accelerating and humanity's last bastion falling from the sky, will his one-of-a-kind talent be enough to avert the end of the world, or will this second chance be his last?

If you want the full synopsis, skip this paragraph and go to the next one. -- -- -- -- The MC and his classmates are transported to another world where they must complete deadly trials to survive. Those who pass will be chosen as heroes. Everyone gains a unique skill the MC’s is necromancy. He manipulates, deceives, and kills anyone, and his team is just as twisted as he is. Volume 1 focuses more on cultivation as well as some struggle umm.. Mc would still be flexing, but Volume 2 will truly shine for slice of life readers, dark comedy ones as well as those who loves academy genre. From volume 2 Academy would be the main focus. After the first volume, the story will take a slice-of-life turn as the MC becomes the strongest after tricking the gods themselves. And necromancy? It’s just the beginning. His power will grow far beyond that. He will have much more powerful skills. That’s all for the short rundown. Below is the full synopsis. ----------------------------- They summoned a hero to save their world. Instead, they got him. In his old life, Dante was a nobody, a bullied orphan who had learned that kindness was weakness and survival meant treating everyone like a pawn. So when a goddess dragged him from his world and threw him into a brutal death game, he didn’t scream like the others. He smiled. This was a game he was born to play. While the other heroes(his classmates) fought with hope and friendship, he fought with cold logic. Gifted with Necromancy, the power to raise the dead, he built an army from both enemies and fallen allies. Lies, manipulation, betrayal, he wore them all like masks, even posing as a reluctant leader. Around him gathered a team of powerful, dangerous women whose affections and rivalries he twisted into weapons only he could control. In the end, he won. He stood before the goddess and, with one final deception, stole the power of a god. Now he was immortal. Unkillable. But victory carried a darker truth. The trial had been nothing more than training. The gods who ran it now saw him as their weapon, ready to be discarded when they were done. Worse still, beings older and darker than gods had taken notice of his power. And so, the real game began. He enrolled in Silverleaf Academy, the heart of this new world’s strength, not as a conqueror, but as a quiet, unremarkable side character. From the back row of a classroom, he would pull the strings of kings and queens, topple empires, and build his own. Everyone was searching for a hero to save them. None would suspect that the quiet boy in the shadows was the tyrant who would bring them all to their knees. ---------------------------------- For Character Illustrations https://discord.gg/ht8sfcTCcR _________________________ Additional Tags :- #ANTIHERO, #OVERPOWEREDMC, #ACADEMY, #VILLAIN, #RUTHLESSMC, #SIDE CHARACTER, #MANIPULATIVEPROTAGONIST, #MAGIC, #SURVIVAL, #TSUNDERE ,#YANDERE#18+#KINGDOMBUILDING, #SWORDSANDSORCERY,#NECROMANCY,#UNDEAD,#AURA FARMING
