Additional Book Tags; Physicological, Gore, Cunning male lead, Game elements, gods, Anti hero, Suspense, Large World, Gaslighting. Synopsis At the end of it all, Dssal was the one who built Pantheon. "My felicitations to the Nameless God." They said, if he'd lived long enough to hear it. December 24th, 2026 marked the start of everything: the day he stepped into Pantheon. Not as some chosen god, though—that chance was barely there. Pantheon was a cosmic horror game, one in which Dssal entered as a throwaway nobody, burdened with the miserable title of "Feeble Wanderer." If Alice hadn't lived through this exact timeline ninety-nine times before, there would be no story to tell today. After all, even across every loop so far, she'd failed—and this run was her last. To the world continuum, a regressor was nothing special. As per the game's lore, a divine war among the Eight High Gods broke containment, and their chaos inevitably spilled from Cosmos into the real world. Earth could only survive if this impossible game was cleared—a matter of life and death of a version of the game which hadn't been cleared even without the war. Dssals predicament was almost impossible. Possibility only remained because to balance cause and effect Dssal was offered something different. The Eight High wields the power of manifestation, hence a new law emerged—one bound by a broken loophole: The User's Manual. Fallacy When inside Pantheon, by the Eight High's will, if developers and players alike believes Dssal (the creator) possessed something, the system would code it real—according to the manual. Falsehood could literally become a weapon. Dssal grinned when he heard it. This wasn't a power fantasy. This was the story of how the weakest Arcane Bearer alive lies, cheats, and claws his way through survival long enough to turn the end of the world into leverage. This is the story of How To Use A World's Apocalypse. --- A/N: The main story fully begins at chapter 11 btw and a full written volume of 101 chapters is already available hence do belive in this unrivalled authors consistency XD

The Evolving Post-Apocalypse Game

In 2045, the world collapsed into The Evolving Post–Apocalypse Game, a nightmare where half of humanity became zombies and survival was dictated by system mechanics. Smile, once human, awakens buried beneath a mound of rotting corpses. The stench of decay, the weight of bodies, and the groans of the undead press down on him. He remembers the bite that should have killed him, but the Zombie Vampire System has revived him—changed him. Crawling free from the pile, he realizes the zombies don’t attack. Perhaps he is one of them now. The desolate city greets him with silence and ruin. Searching for safety, he approaches a red Mustang, only to find a massive zombie trapped inside. As more undead close in, a holographic panel appears: Danger detected. Five D‑rank zombies approaching. Probability of survival: 50/50. Smile curses the system, but instinct drives him forward. He fights, desperate, screwdriver in hand, body trembling, until hunger overwhelms him. His jaw splits with agony, his teeth lengthen into fangs, and the system demands blood. Pinned beneath the zombie, Smile makes his choice. He bites. He tears. He drinks. The foul taste becomes fuel, the pain fades, and power surges through him. His senses sharpen, his strength grows, and the hunger transforms into exhilaration. The holographic woman appears, announcing his evolution: Zombie Vampire Halfling, D‑rank awakened. Ability unlocked: Nitro Accelerate. Bloodied, trembling, yet alive, Smile realizes the truth. He is no longer human. He is something new—predator, halfling, hunter. And his hunt has only just begun.

Reverend Insanity: The Goody Two-Shoes System

Man is the spirit of all things, and gu are the refined fragments of the Great Dao. The ambition which blooms with the spring's morning breeze withers at the call of autumn's night. The accumulation of five hundred years - triumphs and failures - will be naught but ash with dawn's first light. The rising of the sun bathes the mountains in golden flame, but 'tis sunset upon the demon's time. The demonic overlord, Fang Yuan, is cornered by his enemies after word gets out that he refined the Spring Autumn Cicada - a gu worm rumored to be capable of having a chance at sending one back in time but demands a terrifying price in return - the user's entire existence! With no hope of escape, in desperation, Fang Yuan uses the Spring Autumn Cicada which miraculously lives up to its name and sends him back in time. And now, he's back in Gu Yue Village as a fifteen-year-old ready to use his knowledge of the future to conquer the world... but there's something wrong. Something is quite different this time around. What's with this new notification that keeps popping up in his view? It calls itself 'The Goody Two-Shoes System.' It also starts giving him quests to complete. "Help Fang Zheng gain his confidence back!" - get a Green Copper Relic Gu! "Help your friends refine their gu worms!" - have your aptitude raised by 2%! All of these rewards and quests before him, why are they trying to convert this demonic overlord to the path of righteousness? And aren't some of these quests kind of... sus? Why does marrying Bai Ning Bing give him an immortal gu? Whatever, anything for benefits! This is a fanfiction based on Gu Zhen Re's work 'Reverend Insanity' known in Chinese as 蛊真人 or 'Gu Taoist Master'. I don't own the rights to the original work. 'Gu' in the context of this story are mystical insects that have various powers and are the basis of the world's cultivation system.
