"Rank F? Crippled? Cursed? They have no idea what they’ve just unleashed." In a world where Moon-rank dictates status, I was the ultimate disgrace. When the legendary black egg hatched, it didn't reveal a dragon—it revealed a weak, crippled runt of a wolf. The humiliation was followed by a brutal betrayal. Cast into the Velmora Abyss—a place worse than hell—I was supposed to die. Instead, the darkness had other plans. [Void Prime System Activated!] With the ability to devour the very essence of everything I kill, I no longer need their pity. My crippled wolf has evolved into a Shadow Primal, and I have become a vessel of unstoppable darkness. One by one, the clan that cast me out will be forced to kneel. One by one, the stolen thrones will be torn down. Let their light shine one last time. Because when I return, only darkness will remain.

Mercy is a luxury when currency of survival is lifespan. Crackle . . . hiss . . . boom . . . rain falls on corpses. The storey opens on the mountain of the dead - the last battlefield of the human race. Li Wei, who is a broken man under the curse of accelerated ageing, stands among the ruins of the Ancient God. His shaking hands hold a divine artefact - The Eye of Judgement. His body decays. His breath comes out in broken gasps - huff, cough, splat. And then… betrayal. The only family he's ever had - his sister, Li Xue - looks coldly on as she drives the dagger deeper into his chest. Thud… hiss… crackle… She calls him "nothing but an adopted mistake." A man named Yang Xun, brilliantly like an idol of deceit, thanks him mockingly. That's when Li Wei realises - the world doesn't reward love. It rewards survival. When he dies, something ancient is roused inside The Eye of Judgement. And when he opens his eyes again - it's 2025, the day the god forsaken game, LYTABern, descends upon Earth.

“I’m major Kaelen, I live in this forest before you, this is my kingdom, and I will take you all down one after the other. Look closely at the ground beneath your boots, soldiers. That soil is already hungry. You arrived here thinking you were an army. You are just meat walking into a larder. You do not command this space; the shadows command you, and I am the hand that guides them. I will not fight your formations. I will bleed you drop by drop. Your patrols will disappear without a whisper. Your sentries will wake up finding the razor edge of my knife where their breath used to be. Go ahead, try to advance. You will find that retreat is impossible, surrender is irrelevant, and the only mercy you will receive is the speed of my strike. You will die lost, you will die afraid, and you will die remembering the sound of my name echoing through the impenetrable darkness. This is not a war you are fighting. This is an execution you insisted upon.”
