The Last Promise

THE LAST ORACLE

**In a world on the brink of ecological collapse, where ancient prophecies whisper of impending doom, Jake, a young man burdened with the weight of a forgotten lineage, must confront his destiny as the last Oracle.** Jake, a sarcastic, wisecracking herbalist with a penchant for witty insults, lives a relatively carefree life, his knowledge of the natural world a solace in a time of growing despair. But when a devastating drought grips the land, and whispers of an ancient prophecy – one that foretells the end of the world as they know it – begin to circulate, Jake's life is irrevocably altered. Haunted by visions of a dying Earth and guided by cryptic messages from the spirit world, Jake discovers he possesses a forgotten power: the ability to commune with the Earth itself. As the drought intensifies and societal order begins to crumble, Jake must embark on a perilous journey to find the source of the impending cataclysm. During his journey, he meets Razar, a brilliant but disillusioned scientist, and Axon, his loyal and resourceful best friend, the voice of reason amidst Jake's sarcastic quips. In an attempt to help Jake understand and control his burgeoning powers, Razar accidentally injects him with an experimental serum. This serum unexpectedly imbues Jake with a unique system, transforming his understanding of his abilities into a game-like interface. Jake now receives quests, gains experience points, and unlocks new abilities as he masters his powers. However, the system is a secret, a dangerous secret that must be kept hidden from the world, including his closest allies. As Jake grapples with his newfound power, the system, and his place in the world, he begins to question his own morality. The system, while granting him incredible abilities, also fuels his inner turmoil. He struggles to control its influence, battling internal demons as he navigates a world on the brink of collapse. Facing not only the impending ecological disaster and the machinations of Mordros, a powerful sorcerer who seeks to exploit the chaos, but also the potential dangers of the system itself, Jake must confront his own inner darkness. With the help of Razar and Axon, and guided by the cryptic messages of the Earth, Jake must decide whether to embrace his destiny as the last Oracle and save the world, all while keeping the existence of the system a secret, ensuring that its power does not corrupt him, and ultimately, finding redemption within himself. !

The promise to save the villain

A peaceful life without any bloodshed, that’s the only dream left for Mr. Kim, a former gangster. Using his savings, he bought a nice apartment and started running a small bookstore. As everything seemed to be going smoothly, he met a high schooler named Ah Yeon, the one who was destined to turn his peaceful life upside down. Learning about her background and feeling pity for the child, who been suffering from abuse and bullying, he offered her a job at his bookstore. Over time, they grew closer, almost like family. Reading was her hobby, and because of that, she often recommended novels to him. One of those novels was 'The Death Note'—a romantic yet revenge-filled story, full of kidnapping, abuse, killing, mafia... and it all revolved around three main characters. Initially uninterested, he picked it up on a boring day. When she saw him reading the novel, she asked him a curious question. “From the main three characters, who would you save, if you ever got the chance?” “No one…” he replied without much thought. “What? Why?” “How can someone save a fictional character? Use your brain.” “I know it’s just a story; that’s why I’m asking as if. What if we transmigrate to another world and get the chance? If I could, I would save the villain. He is just like me..." Her eyes reflected sorrow as she said it. Few days later, news reached to Mr. Kim that the girl had committed suicide after murdering her stepfather. That day, for some reasons he kept the book with him, but the next day, he was dumbfounded to find himself in the body of a young girl who had been tortured terribly. Slowly, Kim realized the world was strikingly similar to the novel, The Death Note. However, there was no mention of his new name Yoon-Jung. So, he concludes it as an extra with no importance. To escape from the terrible circumstances, he reverted to being the old Kim he once was, but fate give him a new life that completely opposite to the one he led before. Few years later, his peaceful life got an unexpected turn when he met him, the villain, Ah Yuan. He reminded him of Ah Yeon. From the depths of his heart, Kim wished to save him. But in a world where he was struggling to survive himself, could he truly save Ah Yuan from his tragic fate?
