It feels refreshing to read something that isn’t regression and that where the mc has brains
Has some unique things, worth the read I think
holy unique power system. absolute cinema. honestly worth reading just because of how interesting magic works in the novel
This one actually uses actual Earth occualt magic. No system, no upgrades, no stat points, no cute chibi pet.
This is actual Cthulhu, pentagram, salt, planetary alignment type magic.
No glowing hands, no lightning or fireballs. Actual occualt magic.
Unlike Death Note’s, I hope this story’s MC won’t hit the coffin til the end. Very refreshing series with a bit of Lavcraftian motiffs on the MC’s end. Old-fashioned non-flashy magic in down-to-earth reality. Starts all mysterious and even hideous. Let’s see how it picks up. For now it looks very promising.
Really Interesting Start… but its just 5 chapters
This is good.
Ignore the downed Ratings; the haters probably expect some epic magic, usual Hunter stuff and epic power creep.
If you want something different, this is it.
There is great potential in this.
Warning, it does get gory. But it is very, very good.
The amount of detail and thought put into this story is insane, the ritual components and chants are very well-thought out.
Why does this remind me of something?
Grim, psychologically twisted and bloody. Will be pleasing for some but definitely not my cup of tea
Death note vibes but different. I like it so far
Quite good, kinda reminds me of trapped in a ghost story
is that meursault from limbus company?
A good manhwa and will probably won’t have harem and bs, the story is refreshing and shows why being a mage is tough in otherworld.
