Chen Haoran was a master con artist. For fifteen years he sold false hope, running spiritual scams that made him millions—without ever believing a word of it. His game ended with a sniper’s bullet. But death wasn’t the end. He wakes in the medieval world of Aethermoor, reborn as sixteen-year-old Aldric Ashmore. Here, reality bends under the influence of Outer Gods, whose power flows through supernatural “Chains” that twist anyone who uses them. Most people risk corruption when they seek that power. Chen Haoran doesn’t. His talent for manipulation makes him uniquely dangerous. Now, with his father dead under mysterious circumstances, debts mounting, and multiple supernatural factions circling like vultures, Aldric must navigate an unfamiliar world. Armed with psychological expertise, and absolutely zero moral constraints, Chen Haoran begins building the most dangerous cult in history—one guided by someone who understands exactly how to make people choose their own salvation while following a carefully orchestrated path toward transcendence. The faithful need a shepherd. The cosmos needs conscious evolution. And Chen Haoran needs power. Some might call it blasphemy. He calls it business. Welcome to the age of The Faithless Prophet.

It refers to tabletop role-playing games. Their hallmark is the immersive experience of playing your own character, and within the rules, you can choose from a variety of open-ended storylines and endings based on your actions. Cthulhu RPGs are a broad subcategory of TRPGs. Players play the role of ordinary explorers, yet they must explore mysterious events, encounter unknown mythical creatures, and face untold horrors. The only true lesson here is that the less you know, the longer you live. Liu Xing, simply out of curiosity, wanted to run a Cthulhu RPG online, but ended up stumbling upon a real-life Cthulhu RPG.

In a universe fractured by rifts in space and time, the veil between realities is wearing thin, letting in creatures of the void and unleashing a torrent of raw, untamed magical energy. Hunters are born; they are trained to fight back. Only the elite survive. Alexander Gray is not elite — not in the way the others are. His physical strength is his only defining trait; he shouldn't even be the academy's top student. But after surviving a deadly Cosmic Mana Wave, something inside him changes. His body adapts, his mind sharpens, and the rules no longer apply. Normal magical limits no longer bind him... and no one knows why. As yearly trials approach — tests of strength, wit, and survival — Alexander must defend his rank, face rivals, and uncover the truth behind his strange evolution. But hidden forces are watching. Veiled spaces twist around him. And the deeper he steps into the unknown, the more he begins to understand: He's not just surviving the void. He's becoming part of it. *** "For some reason, I can't level up." Alexander began to feel frustrated as he was stuck at Class F, the lowest rank a hunter could have after awakening, despite his momentum when he first awakened. Follow Alexander Gray as he discovers his abilities and learns about himself in a chaotic universe and beyond. *** Join the discord: https://discord.gg/vXC8vWJxHN
