"Darkness users are only good for sneaking around as assassins? Only good for lurking in the corners as scouts?"

"Add points, evolve to invincibility, and reforge the glory of the Darkness Department!"

Alex Whitefield transmigrates to a high-martial world where everyone awakens superpowers. 

He starts with an S-Rank Darkness Ability, only to be told it's weak compared to Ice, Li
ghtning, and Fire abilities of the same rank?
Alex just grins and binds the [Slaughter System].

Kill beasts. Get Slaughter Points. Upgrade everything.

With one command: "Arise, Shadow Legion!"

Ten thousand shadows submit!
"I am the Shadow!"

Facing the Three-Year Pact made with the cold and aloof School Beauty, Elara Vance, he directly summons his Companion S-Rank Spirit Weapon—the [Death Scythe]—and becomes a god in a single battle!

Consume 100,000 Slaughter Points:

 Evolve S-Rank [Shadow Monarch] to SS-Rank [Evernight Monarch]. With a single thought, eternal night descends!

[Consume 1,000,000 Slaughter Points: Evolve SS-Rank Ability to SSS-Rank [God of Shadows]!

With one command: "River of Darkness!" Time itself freezes for me!

The Space-Time Demon Scythe severs the void! Where there is a shadow, there is Alex!
Not only that, but his Companion Spirit Weapon can also be upgraded with points, evolving all the way from an S-Rank weapon to an SSS-Rank World-Ender!

From then on, only the legend of Alex, the man sitting upon the Throne of Shadows, remained in this world.

[Reactions]

The Cold School Beauty, Elara Vance: "I regret it. If I had known earlier, I should have claimed Alex when he was three years old..."

A Peerless Prodigy: "If you don't cultivate, seeing Alex is like a frog at the bottom of a well looking up at the moon. But if you do cultivate... seeing Alex is like a tiny ant gazing up at the vast blue sky!"

The ceremony concluded. The students shifted, forming distinct blocks based on their departments.


​The atmosphere on the field changed instantly. The camaraderie vanished, replaced by tension and hostility.


​"The Resource War will now commence!" Magnus announced.


​"Rules: Each Department selects 30 Representatives. Departments can challenge each other. The winner takes 30% of the loser's resource allocation for the semester!"


​"Department Deans, submit your rosters!"


​In the Darkness Department zone, the atmosphere was nervous.


​Leo (BoogerEater) trembled. "Boss Alex... are we really doing this?"


​"Of course." Alex stood at the front, calm and relaxed. Nyx was hidden in his shadow, ready.


​Suddenly, a loud voice boomed from the Lightning Department's side.


​"The Lightning Department challenges the Darkness Department!"


​Drake, standing at the front of the Lightning formation (since Valerian was absent/injured), shouted arrogantly.
