Despite being a young master of the Zearthorn sect, Neave is not a cultivator. And if he can have his way, he never will be. Years of daily beatings, bullying, and abuse haven’t been enough to make him change his mind, and the ultimatum from his father won’t be either.
Forced to choose between an arranged marriage and a path of cultivation, Neave makes a third choice. In a desperate, last-ditch attempt, he enters a secret vault and encounters a treasure.
A book he should have never touched.
Trapped in a hellish time loop of death and suffering, he fights waves of demons in an impossible challenge of skill, creativity, and perseverance.
What will happen when he finally returns?
Oblivious to the apocalypse he had become.
Unaware of the horrors he had dragged outside.

In a world of countless enemies, the right talent is all it takes to thrive.
Freddy Stern, a twenty-one-year-old cashier, has lived a plain, albeit harsh life. Having been orphaned—twice—he's spent the last ten years working and staying out of trouble. His only aspiration is to save enough money to become an archhuman.
His dream gets the jump on him when he barely survives a near-death encounter and finds himself with 1% Lifesteal, a bizarre talent with numerous contradictions and just as many uses.
With every dead enemy, he becomes a bit stronger, a little wiser, and a lot more ruthless. And no matter how much damage he takes, he can always put himself back together. Physically, at least.
But on his path to power, after having to look at the rotting guts of archhuman society again and again, can his talent keep his mind and soul as pristine as his body?
Or will that part of him simply remain broken?
PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER AT THE BOTTOM!
Humanity needs a protector. Instead, they get… Him.
Humanity had lost an ancient interdimensional war between the forces of good and evil. And now, demons, at the behest of their devil overlords, are in the process of exterminating all of human existence.
In a final act of despair, the angels banished a lonely world into a starless stretch of a lifeless universe, where demonic forces can barely reach. All they need now is a selfless soul who will take the mantle of the Final Guardian, an entity whose entire existence revolves around postponing the end of human life. It would take a true saint to accept such a burden.
Unfortunately for them, their volunteer is no saint. And sadly for the demons, he is something far worse.
Any time he dies, he will revive to continue his mission.
Any time he aids humanity, he will grow more powerful.
There is no winning the war against the infinitely vast army of demons. But he might just be crazy enough to postpone losing. Forever.
