In the world of Tenebrous, where darkness births monsters and shadows hold secrets, Kael emerges as an unlikely protagonist. Once a promising E-class hunter, his life was shattered when his clan was massacred and he was framed for their murder. Now branded as a traitor by the Hunter's Guild, Kael survives in the shadows, driven solely by his quest for revenge against those who destroyed everything he held dear. A mysterious awakening triggers the activation of a hidden system, marking Kael as its chosen vessel. This ancient power recognizes his rare Shadow Affinity – a trait occurring in perhaps one hunter in ten thousand – and sets him on a path toward unimaginable strength. As he navigates this new reality, Kael discovers he can manipulate darkness itself, moving unseen and striking from the very shadows. The story follows Kael's journey through a complex world where hunters are ranked from F-class novices to the legendary SSS-class masters who can reshape reality. Within this hierarchy, Kael must navigate treacherous political landscapes, forge unexpected alliances, and confront ancient mysteries while pursuing his vengeance. His path becomes intertwined with powerful forces – including enigmatic figures who seem to understand more about his destiny than they reveal. Through trials and tribulations, Kael evolves from a hunted traitor into something far more formidable. Each challenge pushes him closer to his goal of revenge, but also reveals deeper truths about Tenebrous and his place within it. As he rises through the ranks, he must confront whether his pursuit of vengeance will consume him entirely, or if he can forge a different path – one that balances his desire for justice with the weight of his growing power. Will Kael remain forever bound to the shadows of his past, or will he emerge as something greater – a force capable of reshaping the very fabric of Tenebrous?

The story takes place in the Nine Heavens Realm, a vast world filled with sects, ancient clans, and powerful cultivators. The realm is divided into Lower, Middle, and Upper Heavens, each with its own hierarchy of power. The protagonist starts in the Lower Heavens, where he is mocked and bullied for his ugliness, but through his journey, he ascends to the highest levels of power. --- Main Character Name: Luo Feng Appearance: Luo Feng is born with a hideous appearance—his face is scarred, his body is deformed, and he is often compared to a "monster" or "beast." His ugliness is so extreme that even his family shuns him. Personality: Despite his appearance, Luo Feng is kind-hearted, intelligent, and resilient. He has a strong will to prove himself and refuses to let his looks define his worth. "Cultivation Talent": Luo Feng possesses a unique cultivation talent that no one recognizes at first. His body, though ugly, is a rare vessel for an ancient, forgotten cultivation technique called the "Celestial Asura Scripture". This technique allows him to absorb energy from pain, suffering, and rejection, making him stronger with every hardship he endures. --- Cultivation System: The cultivation system is divided into Realms and Stages, with each realm requiring immense effort and breakthroughs. Luo Feng’s cultivation path is unique because his ugliness and suffering become the source of his power. 1. Mortal Realm - Qi Gathering - Body Refinement - Foundation Establishment 2. Earthly Realm - Core Formation - Nascent Soul - Soul Transformation 3. Heavenly Realm - Void Refinement - Dao Seeking - Immortal Ascension 4. Celestial Realm (Luo Feng’s ultimate goal) - Celestial Sovereign - Asura Emperor - Eternal Ascendant
