In the world of Eltherra, power is everything—and power is measured by levels. From the moment a person awakens their class, they begin the sacred journey of leveling up: defeating monsters, completing quests, mastering skills, and earning divine favor. For most, it is the only path to survival, status, and meaning. But for Adam, an orphaned farm boy from a forgotten border village, that path shatters on the day he risks his life to save a dying girl from a monster he should never have survived. Instead of dying, Adam awakens a mysterious and forbidden power: the ability to create skills, override the system, and see the code beneath reality. The system calls him a Revenant Codemancer—a class that doesn’t exist. The gods call him a mistake. The empires see him as a threat. As Adam levels up, he begins to unravel the truth behind the system that governs the world. He discovers ancient secrets, forgotten gods, and corrupted empires built on lies. But leveling up is not enough. Not when the system itself is broken, not when the rules of reality can be bent—or rewritten. With unlikely allies at his side—a rogue with a haunted past, a paladin torn between duty and desire, and a half-demon bard who sings truths no one wants to hear—Adam embarks on an epic journey to reshape the world. Not just to rise through the levels… …but to transcend them. Because in a world ruled by gods, monsters, and leveling systems, Adam doesn’t just want to survive. He wants to rewrite the endgame.

They said she died peacefully. That's what they always say, don't they? When someone slips away in a hospital bed - when the machines stop beeping, and the room goes quiet except for the sigh of grief no one dares to release. Peaceful. Like death is ever kind. I was five. Too young to understand why my mother wasn't waking up. Too small to make sense of the nurses whispering in the hallway or the way they looked at me, like I was already a problem they didn't know how to solve. Her name was Rebecca. She was twenty-five. And her blood betrayed her. They said it was cancer. Aggressive. Silent. A thief in the bloodstream. By the time they caught it, it had already taken everything. I was all she had. And when she left, I had no one. No father. No family. Just a name I couldn't pronounce, and a world I didn't belong to. The system chewed me up und spat me out. Foster homes. Group homes. Back and forth like a package No one ordered. Smiles that didn't last. Promises that broke before they were even spoken. Every time someone tried to "fix" me, I'd break first, make sure they knew I was no one's charity case. No one's second chance. Eventually they stopped trying. I got older. Quieter. I stopped waiting to be rescued and started fighting instead. Literally. Underground rings don't ask for backstories. Just fists. Blood. And that, at least, I could give them. Then one night, seventeen years into this messy life, someone knocked on my door. A stranger. Two of them, actually. His name was Marcello Mariano, a man I'd only ever heard of in headlines. CEO. Businessman. Untouchable. I knew his face from magazines. I knew his name from rumors. But I didn't know why he'd come for me. Or what kind of danger was following him. All I knew was that everything I thought I knew about my life... Was a lie. And now the weight I never asked for is trying to pull me under. But I won't drown. Not again.

In the fog-choked city of Vullum, death blooms in silence. Lenora is an apothecary wrapped in ritual scars and silk—a masked woman cursed to feel the hearts of others with a single touch. Feared by the living, haunted by forgotten rites, she walks the streets like a myth wearing gloves. When bodies begin appearing with no wounds—only expressions of overwhelming sorrow and spider lilies blooming from their chests—Lenora is forced into an uneasy alliance with Dorian Vale, a cynical investigator with ice-blue eyes and secrets deeper than his sarcasm. Together, they unravel a string of deaths that echo a ritual buried in Lenora’s own past. A past tied to a boy named Cassian. A moon that bled. And a vow whispered by something not quite human. As the city turns against them, and the dead begin to remember, Lenora and Dorian must confront the truth behind the Heartbinder rite—before love becomes the final curse.

In his past life, in a world ravaged by the zombie apocalypse, Alex, a strong and charismatic alpha, tries to lead his group of survivors. However, behind the facade of a leader, he hides a secret: he is in love with his secretary, Leo, an intelligent and sensitive beta. However, his personal life is in ruins. Leo, his beta boyfriend and secretary, has just discovered that Alex's family is planning an engagement with an omega. Tired of living in the shadow of expectations, Leo ends the relationship. With the abrupt end of the romance, the apocalypse arrives with fury, bringing not only zombies but betrayals and conflicts among survivors.

However, this ability comes at a terrible price—he must face the loss of his humanity. As the two protagonists grow apart, Alex struggles with the pain of loss, while Leo is surrounded by challenges that force him to use his powers more and more. The world has become a place where survival of the fittest, and Leo finds himself torn between his new identity and the love he still feels for Alex. When their paths cross again, Alex realizes that to protect Leo and earn his trust, he will need to face not only the hordes of zombies but also the ghosts of his past. He must decide: can he accept the new Leo, even if it means confronting his weaknesses and the shadow of what he has become? The two support each other in a world in ruins, but the pressure from Alex's family to marry an elite omega makes everything more complicated. As zombies and survivors fight for power, Alex and Leo must work together, rebuilding what was broken and facing the dark truth about the sacrifices that love demands. Leo, who has always admired Alex from afar, feels the weight of expectation on his shoulders. He is the last person who would want to disrupt his beloved's life, so he decides to keep his feelings quiet. However, the chaos of the apocalypse brings unexpected challenges and, on one fateful night, Leo discovers that Alex's family is organizing a meeting between him and the omega, planning an engagement. Desperate and hurt, Leo confronts Alex, revealing his emotions. What should have been a conversation about survival turns into a deep outburst, where the two realize the love they have built amidst the destruction. They must decide whether to face the expectations of society and Alex's family or to give up their love to protect an uncertain future. Unfortunately, reality doesn't always have a happy ending. When an enemy uses an omega to try to infiltrate the group of survivors, Alex soon realizes this and pretends to fall for the beauty trick and takes the omega to the forest to get rid of him. After all, it wasn't the first time they used this trick and it always worked. But Alex made a mistake. He didn't know that the omega had a magical jade space around his neck where another survivor was hiding, waiting for the opportunity to kill him. The last thing Alex saw before he died was the omega transforming into his appearance and handing the necklace to someone else, apparently another omega. He wasn't sure because his vision was getting dark, but all he could think about was Leo. Reborn, waking up weak, sick, and the victim of a trap 2 years before the apocalypse Alex has to fix his relationship with Leo. With the zombie apocalypse lurking and the pressure from his family increasing, Alex and Leo must fight not only against the future threat of the undead but also against the ghosts of their insecurities.
