Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse.

Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world.

Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again.

Nobody remembers the past.

Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished.

Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme.

-----

A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City.

The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters.

Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position.

But then, a mysterious man visits him.

And his luck finally turns around. Collapse

    Pretty good/decent, definitivly better than Sword God in a World of Magic, not nearly as good as LITOW and also still suffers from quite a few issues from his first two works (emotional bs, open/empty ending among other minor things(which in part actually came from me having read his last novels and essantialy knowing exactly what the author is gonna do)mostly) Overall if you liked either of the Authors first two novels, you very likely will like it(and its pretty much exactly what you would expect from this author pretty much 1to1, this also technically means if you arent interrested anymore after the first two, you probably will have more problems reading this.), if you didnt you probably also wont like this one, even tho i would say for those who have read Sword God that they can try(because it has less bs in it) for people who have read LITOW and didnt like it atall its unlikely you will enjoy it(if that dislikes comes from bad moral chice or ruthless things mc did, tho than this is null and i would also very much recommend reading the novel)
    The currenty rating of 4.2/5 (8/10) from the site is something i very much agree with even tho i would say tendency upwards(more indirection of 8,5-9/10(personaly probably 8,6 or so), but i can see about everything inbetween or even a bit below 8).
    [Adjusted a bit up over my first feeling of being a 8 completly aince it does manage to evoke feelings of void after reading it fully, which on this level is rare(even any are kinda rare)]


    If you are part of the people who havent read a novel of this author, id say definitivly try atleast one of his works(this and LITOW being Probably the best to do so. His 4th novel i cant judge yet) regardless of your experience level, while the storys arent absolutely special or even very good at all times, it definitivly overall is a pretty unqiue exp to read regardless of how experienced you are and can very well be very worth it.

      When I read LITOW I thought it was an incredible story with a lot of potential, but the more I read, the more trash I found.

      The author leaves aside the part of creating a plot to tell a story, and only focuses on developing the drama, everything in the story is drama.

      And the ending was crap, I was very sad, the potential of a good story was ruined with too much drama and an ending that the MC f#cks up and is open.

      I've given up on reading anything else by him.

        I think this novel is better in that specific regard, but if you didnt like that it might not matter.

          Overall I really liked it, the author knows how to develop the story in a good way that keeps you hooked.

          But the constant focus on a 10000% exaggerated drama ruined the story for me, the open ending is the cherry on the cake to ruin something that could be amazing.

          Maybe I'll try this one then since the drama isn't that exaggerated, thanks for the tip

      ugh... I read Kingdom's Bloodline and now I find even LOTM to be kicked out of 1st place in my novel list...

      anyway, so u get where I'm coming from, I love quality. So would u recommend me this or not? And just a question, does this novel have any romance at all? The wiki is basically bare, nothing written, hence I have to ask here. I dont like romance by itself, but its a good thing if its a side part of the story. LOTM made up for it by having an excellent plot, barely few can ever do that.

      Its only natural that an mc who is center of the story would at least have a few ladies around him, and also natural he could get into a relationship with one of them. Harem rarely makes sense, I would prefer not, I've only seen like a very few novels where I genuinely loved each and every fmc, none were filler... Anyway, back to my question, does this have any romance at all... a virgin mc doesnt make sense.

        This novel technically has a form of romance, albert its relativly short, also there isnt realy a place for it narativly past a certain point anyway, lets just say that this novel has the same style as the other works from this author aka being pretty ruthless to the mc and basicaly every char ever.
        If you just want to read it for romance dont, otherwise atleast try, you might get burned but if not you will either like it(and hate it in someform aswell lol) or sing its praises.
        Overall i think most people should atleast try one of authors works, since they are very unique (compared to normal) in alot of ways and even overall feel imo

        yes same , LOTM moved to second place after i red kingdom bloodline , but anyway , this novel is really good , obviously not as good as the above , but close . it does have romance but its like rarely mentioned in the novel , maybe a couple of chapters in the whole novel , an ice to the cake . one of the best magic system , creative world building , and a lot of mysteries which make really sense at the end of the story . if i have to name a downside , its the mc personality at the beginning of the novel , he does change , like completely as the story progress but its a huge downseller for a lot of people .

    The novel is very excellent
    Its beginning is beautiful and quiet a little things get more enthusiastic with the seasons
    But you have to endure the chapters of the novel between 250 and 400.
    This paragraph was very provocative, but after that you will see a greatness that has no equal

      I'm not a fan of romance, harem even less, but I prefer if there is at least a subplot of romance (eg Naruto has romance subplot with Hinata). So does this novel have any of that or it's like LOTM and doesn't even have any love interest?

      LOTM made up for that flaw by having an excellent main plot, and I'm pretty sure thats not the case with most novels. Hence my question above.

      Also, any idea why the wiki is so uninformative? There's practically nothing written in it. Thats why I had to ask in comments

        Yes, there is a romantic subplot, but it won't start until about chapter 500, and there are only 3 chapters in total.

          so... does it devolve into something more relevant or not... when u say 3 chaps, that sounds like some woman tried to seduce mc, failed withing 3 chaps, and then mc moves on (the end)

            Romance is important in developing an understanding of the hero's character because it shows that despite his heinous actions that would shame even the devils themselves, he is still human on the inside.

            No, they are not three different women, she is just one, and her relationship with the hero is much more complicated than you think, and I cannot spoil it.

              Oh ok I'm interested now

              And I never said 3 women. I said that I had felt like 3 chaps is way too less, which led me to think some woman (singular) tried to seduce mc, failed after trying (took 3 chaps) and then author moves on from the mini arc (was what I thought, but ur painting a more mysterious scenario)

                No, she didn't seduce the main character. The two really loved each other, but... I don't want to spoil it for you, so all I'll say is that this is one of the saddest romances out there.

                  Just tell me it's not a tragedy (as in one of them dying/etc and then mc remains single till the end of the novel, that type). I don't very much like tragedy honestly.

      so... just wanted to ask, does it have even a little romance? As in, a romance sub-genre or sub-plot? I personally don't like it when an mc remains a virgin (or bereft of any love-interest) - it feel as if the author couldnt find a way to integrate suitable romance and left it out.
