Have you ever discovered the true nature of the world we live in? I’m trying to depict it in a world of my own creation, portraying the world we live in from a different perspective—one that is more sinful—through many stories.

This season we've scattered a group of ordinary human role-playing game enthusiasts across a unique world of supernatural horror, filled martial arts, monsters, and sexy mayhem.

Does he have what it takes to reunite with his friends? Updating daily for now! This story is equal parts martial arts comedy harem romance and supernatural urban horror thriller, with plenty of erotica throughout. I promise it works. You can expect all of the many genres to be the tone/mood at some point in this story. Currently, the love scenes have all been very romantic and fairly vanilla, though things will get freakier as the story progresses. You can expect: - Male protagonist focus with occasional Interludes from other perspectives - Genuine romance between the MC and the women in his life - Slow corruption of moral standards, and a kind of gradual, creeping horror, like faces in the corner of the room at night that only grow more distinct as your eyes adjust to the light - Comedy and hijinks!
