The world he left behind was perfect. Or so claimed the artificial intelligences that governed every corner of human existence. Axel—a failed experiment and an anomaly to the Central System—was sentenced to extinction. But the algorithm made a mistake. It didn’t erase him… it exiled him. When Axel opened his eyes, he awoke in a world where logic was dead, gods warred over territories, and words summoned powers he never believed possible. Here, there were no chips or nanobots—only living grimoires, binding oaths, and a shattered world waited for him. Yet something followed him from his birthplace: his executor, NEX, from the Core of the Central System. No magical artifact. No divine gift. A cold, calculating entity that records his every move and judges him as if he still lived under the AI’s rule. Is it his curse… or his chance to reign? He wants just one thing: To never be controlled again. [WSA ENTRY 2025]

In his previous life, he was a master strategist, a war general feared for his genius, but betrayal ended his reign before his time. Now, he awakens in complete darkness—trapped, immobile, and… no longer human. Reincarnated as a Dungeon Core, the heart of a newborn dungeon, he must now navigate a world where survival is dictated by power, mana, and the strength of the monsters under his control. With the Dungeon System guiding him, he learns to shape his domain, summon creatures, and set deadly traps to lure in adventurers seeking fortune and glory. But this world is far more dangerous than he expected. Rival dungeons seek to devour him, empires send their champions to destroy him, and the gods themselves whisper in the shadows, watching his every move. To survive, he must evolve his dungeon into something beyond what this world has ever seen—a fortress of nightmares, an empire of monsters, and a force that even the gods will fear. The war for survival has begun. The world sees him as an abomination, a mindless entity to be erased. But they have made one fatal mistake… They think he has no mind. They think he cannot plan. But even as a Dungeon Core… he remains a strategist. And this world? It is now his battlefield.

Only a Genesis Core born from the Void—sentient, alive, and whispering secrets even the gods fear. “I don’t know if I’m your blessing… or your curse,” she murmurs from within. “Then we’ll find out together,” Austin replies, with cold eyes. He doesn’t crave justice. He craves domination. Austin walks a blood-soaked path. A path where strength is taken, not given. Where monsters are born, not made. And where his Void Core… is only the beginning.

[(MUST READ)] Guide to the World of Signo Welcome to Signo, a world powered by its mystical core—the very heart that fuels all life, magic, resources, and invention. The closer one’s essence is to Signo’s Core, the greater their strength and abilities become. The Seven Continents & Their Graces Each continent is overseen by one of the Seven Graces, divine-like beings who govern different aspects of power and existence: Evascera – Domain of the Grace of Life Neuraleth – Domain of the Grace of Senses Elarith – Domain of the Grace of Space Yhrakka – Domain of the Grace of Beasts Ceravayn – Domain of the Grace of Mind Thorneal – Domain of the Grace of Death Chronisca – Domain of the Grace of Time Geography & Culture There are no countries in Signo. The Seven Graces rule all, and instead of nations, the world is divided into cities—each with its own unique culture and societal structure. The Vanderes – The True Threat The Vanderes are otherworldly invaders, often just as strong—if not stronger—than the Graces themselves. They are feared as the natural predators of the Graces, and their presence threatens the balance of the world. Power System: Magic, Warriors, and Craftsmen All power in Signo flows through a concept called Connection—the bond between one's spirit and Signo itself. Mages: Use magic through their Connection to Signo Fuel magic with mental strength (willpower > stamina) Can cast, summon, buff, and reshape elements according to will Stronger mages have unwavering mental discipline Most use magical weapons or mediums forged from resources near Signo's core Warriors: Cannot use magic, but have bodies directly connected to Signo Possess superhuman physical strength and endurance Born with combat-optimized traits that limit magic use Craftsmen: Experts in smithing, engineering, and invention Can detect and utilize rare resources with ease Can use magic, but only to fuse with creations or tools Their Connection aligns with utility, not offense Anomalies: Rare individuals are born with both mage and warrior traits—they are mysterious, powerful anomalies, and their nature is still not fully understood, and some anomalies have abilities that are completely astray from basic principles. Elements & Alignment Magic is categorized by elemental attributes. A mage’s Connection can determine their affinity: A tornado-shaped connection = Wind alignment A glowing molten core = Fire Crystalline aura = Ice or Earth And so on… Some individuals are capable of wielding multiple elements. Warriors manifest elements through their combat style and personality Artificers reflect elements in the materials they use and the devices they create The 10 Taboo Beasts There exist ten legendary beasts—creatures so powerful they rival even the Graces. They are rarely seen, nearly impossible to track, and their existence is whispered in fear. Status: UNKNOWN
