Devour Draconic Essence

A decade has passed since the first dungeon tore through the world, unleashing an endless tide of monsters that brought humanity to its knees. Just as hope began to fade, a divine power awakened within select humans gifts meant to push back the darkness. But the war is far from over. Lurking in the deepest, uncharted dungeons is an ancient terror, a being of unfathomable power that even the strongest hunters fear to name. Whispers speak of a "Calamity" a monstrous entity that has existed since the dawn of the dungeons, watching, waiting… and growing stronger with each passing year. Hyun, a survivor of the earliest dungeon outbreak, carries scars deeper than flesh. His past is a mystery, even to himself. His earliest memory? A sea of flames, a voice screaming his name, and a shadowed figure reaching for him before everything went black. The only family he has left is his younger sister, Sera, the sole light in his harsh world. On his 17th birthday, when divine powers manifest, Hyun is branded with the infamous "Devour" job a rare and feared ability that consumes everything in its path, including the user’s sanity. To most, it’s a death sentence. To those who know the truth, it’s something far worse: a key to an unspeakable fate. Now, hunted by both man and monster, Hyun must navigate a world where trust is a luxury and power is a curse. As fragments of his forgotten past resurface, he begins to question: Is the true enemy the monsters in the dark… or the darkness inside himself?

Lumberling, a 42-year-old civil engineer, grew numb to the monotonous rhythm of modern life. Hoping to rekindle his sense of wonder, he set out on a solitary nature trip, only to stumble upon an ancient, forgotten pyramid.

Cast adrift in the void, his soul found no rest, until he awoke in the body of a young foot soldier, bleeding and broken on a war-torn battlefield in a world not his own. Determined not to die again, Lumberling fights to survive in this brutal new realm where knights clash with monsters, kingdoms rise and fall, and mysterious powers shape the fate of nations. Armed with a strange ability to devour the essence of those he slays, he begins to carve out a new path, one forged by blood, strength, and sheer will. But power alone may not be enough.

Abandoned at birth. Exiled by holy fire. Raised in the jaws of hell. Amon was thrown into the Abyss as a child—sacrificed by the Pope himself under the lie of “divine will.” Born with royal blood and cursed potential, he was fed to demons like waste. But he didn’t die. He endured. He learned. He devoured. Twenty years later, Amon sits on a throne of bone, the soul of a demon king burning within him. Twisted by betrayal and reforged by survival, he is no longer just a man. No longer just a demon. He is something else. As war brews across realms and ancient powers awaken, Amon sets his eyes on the ultimate prize: The Key to the Human World. To reclaim what was stolen. To unmask false gods. To conquer Heaven, Hell—and everything in between. The Soul Devourer has returned. https://manani11.github.io/Crown-of-devourer

Time had run out. Azrael hadn't been chosen by the system, leaving him Forsaken with no hope for a prosperous life. But he wasn’t going to let it end like this. Even if it meant trading his life for a single chance, he would take it. It was either a life of greatness, one where he would reach the very top… or a short one, dying here, unmourned and forgotten by a cursed world that never cared he existed. “An early end in pursuit of greatness sounds better than a slightly longer one filled with stagnation and regret.” In the end, all the things he had done hadn’t been for naught. The sacrifices up until now had been worth it. [Inborn Trait activated] [System devoured] [Inborn Trait is fusing with the system] [Devouring System has been granted] To his surprise, however, his system proved to be far more extraordinary than the others, granting him a unique path that only he could follow. With that realization, one thing became certain: no matter what monster or human stood in his way, he would reach the very top of the hierarchy, regardless of the cost.

Kael Voren has never known the feeling of a full belly. Born in Brinewatch, the beast-plagued slums of Ashport, hunger is his oldest companion -- gnawing at his gut, his dreams, and his place in a world that values strength above all. When his sixteenth birthday comes, Kael awakens to the misery of an E-Rank Talent: Advanced Digestion. Not strength. Not speed. Just the ability to eat garbage without dying. But beneath this feeble Talent lies a dormant truth -- an insatiable void tethered to an unfathomable potential. A hunger not for food, but for power. Everything changes when Kael inadvertently devours fragments of Prana and Chakra -- powers that create and shape reality itself. Powers that were supposed to be beyond the reach of a gutter rat such as himself, but were made available to him by Advanced Digestion. These stolen sparks awaken something ancient inside him: a nascent, skeletal system. No interface. No tutorials. Just a stark warning burned into his mind and a void calling out from within - devour everything! What he has awakened is not a talent. It is a trait. XXX-Rank Trait: Inner Universe Creation. But it is embryonic -- barely functional, missing structure, support, and a will. To unlock its power, Kael must build from nothing. Piece by blind piece. Trial by brutal trial. Fueled only by his desperation to protect his family and claw his way out of the grave Brinewatch was supposed to be. In secret, Kael creates an RPG World inside his trait -- a universe he rules, where monsters can be spawned, skills mastered, time bent, and power devoured. There, he forges his own path, his own system, and his own strength. But the hunger never fades, it only grows. And as his enemies close in and betrayal tears his world apart, Kael makes an oath: I will protect my family, and I'll devour everything that stands in my way. From starving boy to High Human Emperor, from discarded E-Rank to system god, Kael Voren’s rise will shake the stars. A dark fantasy progression epic of hunger, creation, revenge, and ruthless evolution. For fans of cultivation, RPG systems, and protagonists who build their own power from the blood-soaked dirt up.

In a world overrun by dungeons, everyone awakens with a System linked to their destined class. The strong become Hunters. The weak become corpses. Kaito Ryu has no System. No class. No future. Mocked as a dungeon janitor and discarded by society, he’s barely surviving—until a betrayal leaves him bleeding out in a dungeon’s depths. That’s when something inside him snaps. SYSTEM ERROR: Class ‘None’ rejected… Assigning forbidden class: [DEVOURER]. Now, Kaito can absorb the abilities of monsters—and humans. Strength. Speed. Magic. Even memories. But with each skill he devours, something darker stirs inside him. Will he rise as humanity’s savior… or become its worst nightmare?

ASSEMBLE, DRAGONS! When Daniel, an unlucky yet sharp-witted young man from Earth, meets an untimely end, he awakens not in paradise—but before the fearsome, long-forgotten Devouring Dragon God. In a crumbling divine realm on the brink of extinction, the ancient god offers Daniel a choice: be reborn in a world of magic, dragons, phoenixes, and cultivation—or vanish into eternal nothingness. But there’s a price: he must take up the mantle of vengeance and resurrect the glory of the annihilated Dragon Clan. Their enemy? Not demons. Not mortals. Gods. At first, Daniel scoffs.

In a realm ruled by magic, where every child is measured by their starborn potential, Kael awakens to nothing. No stars. No aura. No power. Laughed out of the Awakening Ceremony and labeled a “Zero,” Kael is cast into the shadows of Arkanis Academy — a place where gods-born heirs, elemental warlords, and dragon-blooded prodigies train for dominance. He is the broken one, mocked, beaten, forgotten. But Kael carries a curse the stars cannot read. Buried beneath humiliation and blood lies something ancient — something the gods themselves fear. A whisper in the dark. A hunger that slumbers behind cracked bones and broken pride. And it’s watching him rise. As inter-realm war brews and deadly academy tournaments test the elite, Kael begins his quiet, vengeful ascent. With each scar, he inches closer to power. Not the kind granted by fate — the kind stolen from it. In a world where kings are chosen by celestial favor, one boy will tear down the heavens to build his own throne. Even if he must devour the gods to do it.

Lucien Vael was born without a spiritual root, abandoned by his noble clan, and thrown into the wild to die. Shattered, exiled, and declared a mistake by the heavens, he crawled through darkness—until he found something the world had buried and forgotten: the Codex of Sin.

Now, armed with a system that evolves through emotion, corruption, and raw will, Lucien won’t seek revenge—he’ll reshape the world. One sin at a time. The righteous fear him. The heavens want him dead. But the broken worship him. He won’t just climb the ladder of power. He’ll burn it down. And from the ashes, a new sovereign will rise—one the heavens never wanted born.
