Vespera_Nocturne

Jin-Seok wakes up in a dark, unfamiliar forest with no memory of his past or how he arrived. Before he can gather his bearings, a cold, mechanical voice fills his mind, announcing that he has been chosen as a challenger in the *Tower of Eternity*. This massive, enigmatic structure promises unimaginable rewards for those who survive its trials—but it’s also a place of deadly dangers, monstrous beasts, and secrets that run deeper than anyone could fathom.

Armed with nothing but a mysterious System that grants him strange powers, Jin-Seok must navigate each floor of the Tower, defeat terrifying enemies, and unlock his hidden potential. The System helps him grow stronger, providing skills and abilities as he climbs higher. But with every victory, more questions arise—what is the true purpose of the Tower? Why was he chosen? And what is the meaning behind the cryptic messages that keep appearing in his mind?

As Jin-Seok ascends through the Tower’s many levels, he begins to uncover unsettling fragments of his past, hinting at a truth far more extraordinary than he could ever imagine. His powers grow, and his skills evolve, but so too does the darkness that looms ahead. The more he learns, the more he realizes that his fate is intertwined with the very existence of the Tower itself.

In a shocking twist, Jin-Seok discovers that he is no ordinary human. He is a *god*—a being reincarnated into human form in order to break the eternal shackles that bind him. His true mission is to dismantle the Tower from within, but in doing so, he risks everything, including the very fabric of reality itself.

Ascension: Shackles of Eternity is a gripping tale of survival, self-discovery, and a relentless pursuit of freedom. With every step Jin-Seok takes, the stakes grow higher, and the truth behind the Tower’s existence slowly reveals itself. Will he overcome the trials ahead, or will the Tower claim him, as it has claimed countless others?
