Slow Burner

*THIS STORY WILL BE SLOW PACED, I REPEAT THIS STORY WILL BE SLOW PACED* Betrayed. Broken. Trapped in the abyss. Derrick Steins was just another high schooler with dreams—until those he trusted tore his world apart. Left beaten and bleeding, he fell into a deep coma, his consciousness slipping into darkness… But when he wakes, it isn’t in a hospital bed. It isn’t in the world he once knew. It’s Hell. A realm of nightmares where the air stinks of blood, monsters feast on the weak, and the only rule is survival. Here, the strong reign as gods, and the powerless are erased without a trace. Derrick should be terrified. He should despair. But instead, something within him awakens—something dark, something hungry. He was cast aside once. Never again. If Hell wants a monster… he’ll become something far worse. This is his descent. His rebirth. His reckoning. This is Demon God’s Requiem.

You don't need to read chapter 0 it's just there for those you like piecing hidden lore together. . This novel will most likely be a slow burner running at least 1,000 chapters because that's how many I have planned give or take with a maybe side story that has the lore of the world in it once this reaches chapter 100 and the fate's of well you know who will be revealed.

Warning ; [ slow level up , cool fights , weak to strong op not your regular fast level up . Assassin ×demons . ] ----- "Once, I was a god. Now… I can’t even run a mile without passing out." Kael was once a god of war, feared across realms—until he was betrayed and killed. Instead of vanishing into oblivion, he reincarnates… as a fat, talentless dropout at an elite assassin academy. Mocked, ignored, and forced to repeat classes for years, he's at rock bottom. But when a strange notification appears, granting him a dagger and a mysterious “+1” boost, things begin to change. His body gets lighter. His movements get sharper. His once-useless strikes start cutting through steel. Still, Kael doesn’t think much of it. He keeps training, convinced he’s still too weak. Meanwhile, his teachers start panicking, his classmates grow suspicious, and demons who once devoured entire cities hesitate at the mere mention of his name. Kael yawns, rubbing his eyes. “Man, I should train harder… I still feel slow.” The Demon Monarch trembling before him: "SLOW?! YOU JUST BROKE REALITY!!!" Little does Kael know—he’s no longer just an assassin. He’s a nightmare. And when he fights, there’s only one outcome. Game Over.

Without wealthy parents or a mysterious inheritance from her grandfather, she has had to work tirelessly to fulfill her dreams of wine in the weekend, fishing on the yatch on summer, skiing by winter, and touring a vineyard in fall.

Disoriented and unsure of what is happening, "What is happening?"

In traditional beliefs, burying a whole corpse is a sign of respect for the deceased, while cremation is considered a great disrespect. Only corpses that have undergone strange transformations or display ominous signs are subjected to burning. The practitioners of this dark art, known as corpse burners, face extreme danger in their trade. Especially at midnight, when one corpse burner works alone in a locked room, if the body turns into a vengeful spirit, the burner is certain to die. Qin He, a corpse burner working at the canal docks of the chaotic Da Li Dynasty, makes a living from this perilous occupation. For him, facing not just the dead, but the unknown threats they might carry, has become routine. His life had been uneventful—until the mysterious “corpse-burning reward” system emerged, turning his world upside down. This reward promised a generous payout for the burning of dangerous corpses, but it also pulled him deeper into a web of peril. As the rewards grow, Qin He’s choices begin to shrink. He becomes bolder, with no fear of the malevolent corpses that might rise again. Slowly, he begins to entwine his fate with ever-greater risks. In each life-or-death situation, he not only battles the dead but struggles with his own inner turmoil. In this turbulent era, Qin He’s destiny is inevitably tied to darkness, death, and the transformed bodies he burns. As he delves deeper into the art of corpse-burning, where will it lead him? Everything hangs in the balance, waiting for him to make his next move.
