MTL - Devouring The Heavens - Chapter 42 Mozu Princess

When I opened my eyes, I wasn’t just in another world—I was in another body.Specifically, the cursed husk of Dominic Nocturne von Morningstar—exiled demon prince, son of a murdered Demon King and a sleeping Demon Queen, and the world’s most powerless noble.Why? Because as a child, Dominic was betrothed to the Seven Daughters of the Seven Satans—supposedly weak, discarded girls. To seal the deal, a forbidden contract drained him of every drop of talent and sin affinity... and gave it all to them.Now, each girl commands a monstrous Sin—Wrath, Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Envy, and Pride.And every one of them is dangerously obsessed with me.But what they don’t know is:I’m not the original Dominic.And I have a secret they must never learn—A cheat-like system has awakened inside me: The Lucifer System.A path to reclaiming my powers, rewriting fate... and maybe even dethroning the Seven Satans themselves.That is—if I can survive my psycho wives, hellish quests, and a world that wants me erased.

I’m a high school student who became an author after debuting at Dengeki Bunko. After taking a year of hiatus from school to write my work, I transferred out to another high school to study, and met a girl called Eri Nitadori in school, a rookie voice actress cast as a character in the anime adaptation of my work.

In school, we treat our professions as a secret. However, Nitadori’s very popular in class, and I’m a loner…the only chance we get to talk to each other is when we take the Limited Express train together every Thursday, seated side by side as we head off for an anime, After Recording.

To improve her skills, she asked me questions regarding the profession. While I was answering the questions regarding the process–how did it end up like this.

This is what I last remembered before I lost consciousness, and the story of my near-death experience.

On December 11th, the apocalypse began. A new, mutated coronavirus—the Zeta variant—spread worldwide, and it was far more deadly than any version before it.

Lacking the skills to fight off the zombies, he was soon overwhelmed and met a tragic end… or so he thought.When Zack suddenly finds himself alive again, he’s back at the start of the apocalypse but with one huge difference—an advanced AI has armed him with powerful technology. Equipped with a zero-point reactor, power armor, a super serum, and much more, he now has the tools to turn the tide.Follow Zack as he builds a new civilization from the ruins and fights to reclaim the world in this thrilling journey of survival and innovation.
