And then I was through—

Normally, monster-type creatures don’t just pop up in some random place—let alone a human place—out of the blue, and without notice.
Yes, if we’re talking ‘normally’, monsters belong more to places like remote, hostile grounds: they ought to be from dark, nasty forests, old caves, or abandoned, ancient ruins.
As I said, it was only so long as we spoke of the usual deal, however. For better or worse, I wasn’t your regular mob.
So, forget about all the remote, uneasy places humans hardly go to—all the abandoned forests, caves, or dungeons I, a monster, should have been from—and picture a bright, lively family restaurant, in an oh-so-peaceful human village. A restaurant where people ate, chatted, and jested together, all having a good time, blissfully oblivious to the fact that, very soon, I would be cutting them all down.

By magic, a monster-type creature spawned in such a place. It was me.
So far, for the few seconds I had been living, it was quite the good life… I got to listen to a fantastic story being told and shared a cool moment with people.
However! Following an uncertain course of events, I happened to be put up against a wall, with a sword aimed at my chest, before I was mercilessly killed.

I, a unique monster, just spawned in that restaurant, with no clue regarding what was going on.
All I knew was that I wanted to live and survive.
Also, I knew I wasn’t your regular kind of monster.
Thankfully, I’d been granted unique abilities before I showed up.
That is how I managed to survive.

In the year 3000, the Earth shattered and it was torn open by a rift between realms that unleashed ancient beasts, magical chaos, and apocalyptic storms. Civilization crumbled, giving rise to a brutal new law: Tame or be Torn Apart. Beast Tamers, bonded to mutated and other creatures now rule what remains of the world through strength, savagery, and guild-driven power.Kelvin, a scavenger scraping by in the ruins, lives in the shadow of these warlords until he unearths Xerion, the End-Tyrant, a legendary primordial beast sealed beneath the earth. Bound by a forgotten bloodline and a cursed contract, Kelvin inherits the Sigil of the Overlord, thrusting him into a war-torn world where survival is no longer enough.He was hunted by guilds, worshipped by outcasts, and pursued by enemies both human and monstrous, Kelvin must rise from nothing to either unite or destroy what’s left of civilization. As forbidden powers awaken and ancient truths unravel, one man and his beast stand poised to reshape the fate of a world teetering on the edge of annihilation.

The notion of destiny is mysteriously unfathomable! Some fight to the death but fail to grasp it, ultimately regretting their journey on the path of immortality. Yet there are those who are born with great destiny, not only blessed with innate talent, their luck is defying the heavens. Heavenly Grade Techniques, rare treasures, Elixirs, no matter where they go, they encounter them! One day, the treasure-hoarding Clan Leader sent a message, “There are too many treasures, our Family’s Treasure Vault can’t hold them all!” Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming couldn’t help but smile wryly. “It seems like treasures have eyes of their own, always finding me when I go out, but this isn’t what I intended at all!” PS: This book is also known as “I don’t want to be the son of Qi Luck!” “I really don’t want to pick up garbage anymore!”

Alex Moriarty, an orphan, was transmigrated into a high-level martial world after being murdered by his so-called little sister, the very person he had always protected with his life.The world he arrived in was a parallel version of Earth, yet it had been completely transformed.Five hundred years ago, a strange and terrifying dark miasma descended upon the planet. Space itself cracked open, and through those rifts poured horrors beyond imagination. The land expanded to thousands of times its original size, reshaping continents and oceans alike.Ordinary animals mutated into ferocious monsters, while mythical beings such as Godzilla, dragons, and phoenixes crossed over from unknown realms.In a single night, eighty percent of humanity was wiped out.The few survivors were preserved only because of a mysterious sanctuary known as the Light Domain.At its very center stood the Tower of Ascension, a colossal structure with one hundred stairs. When humans reached the age of fifteen, they were allowed to challenge the tower.The number of stairs they climbed determined their cultivation talent and bloodline. Before facing the tower, no one could cultivate or surpass the natural limits of the human body.But Alex was different.He possessed a game-like system that allowed him to cultivate even before setting foot in the tower. While others waited helplessly for their awakening, Alex grew stronger in silence, accumulating power far beyond what should have been possible.When he finally turned fifteen, he challenged the Tower of Ascension. Step by step, he climbed higher than anyone in history, reaching the hundredth stair as the sole existence in the entire universe to do so.At that moment, he awakened five Eternal Grade talents.[Eternal Grade Constitution: Primordial Chaos Physique][Eternal Grade Bloodline: Existential Nullity][Eternal Grade Eye of Revelation][Eternal Grade Cultivation Talent][Eternal Grade Sword Talent]With these five unparalleled talents and his Infinity System, which allowed him to cultivate passively twenty-four hours a day, Alex embarked on a path of absolute power. His journey was driven by two goals: to find his lost father and to make the Earth safe for his mother.
