Naruto Awakens Shikotsumyaku

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

Aren was born without emotions. He couldn’t feel happiness, sadness, or even loneliness. He was unable to connect with his family or surroundings; the world always felt distant to him. Yet this never seemed like a deficiency to him, because he had no concept of what it meant to feel. Over time, he grew accustomed to living with this emptiness, relying solely on his intellect to understand the emotions of others. But then, a fight changed everything. For the first time, Aren felt emotions—pleasure, wildness, and a torrent of complex feelings that made time seem to slow down. This experience both shocked and captivated him. Somehow, this new discovery felt like it had completed a missing part of him. Gradually, Aren began to realize that what had blocked his emotions was, in fact, a unique ability within himself. But what would learning to control this ability bring him? What path would he be led down as he uncovered emotions he had never experienced before?

After awakening, Oliver found himself living as a poor farmer on the edge of the forests of the Kingdom of Rivendell, in a dilapidated home with scarce food. The kingdom’s forests were filled with magical beasts and toxic gases, and people believed they were perilous. However, he had awakened a super magic core that could capture creatures and endlessly transform its form. By capturing magical beasts, he gained incredible powers. He captured a Silver-Maned Boar, which granted him Superhuman Strength, enabling him to overpower foes with sheer brute force. Later, he captured a Thunderhawk, a majestic bird that soared through storms. This creature bestowed upon him the ability known as Storm's Embrace, allowing him to summon lightning strikes and control winds with a mere thought. Finally, he captured a Celestial Serpent, an immense creature adorned with shimmering scales that glinted like stars. This powerful beast endowed him with an Aetheric Shield, creating a formidable barrier that absorbed and reflected magical attacks, enhancing his own spells with celestial energy. As time flowed and the world changed, one day, Oliver, now the ruler of the earth and seas, looked up at the sky.

Having captured so many magical creatures and grown so powerful, he pondered the possibility: what if he could capture a god?

On his 10th birthday, Ren is celebrated as a hero — the chosen one blessed with unmatched power to protect the world from the monsters spilling out of dungeons. Yet, as the nations join forces to train and guide him, they see him only as a weapon to wield, a pawn in a dangerous game of power. Taken from his home, Ren is trained under the iron hands of foreign nations, wielding his strength to shield lands he barely knows. When he finally fulfills his purpose and grows into the most powerful hero the world has ever known, he’s betrayed by the very nations he fought for, and, in their quest for dominance, they destroy the kingdom of Arden, his birthplace, and his heart. In the moments before he dies, struck down by a forbidden weapon, Ren vows revenge. But fate grants him something more powerful than vengeance — a second chance. Awakening in his childhood body mere days before his hero’s ceremony, Ren now has all the knowledge, skill, and power from his former life and a new purpose. This time, he will refuse their shackles, forge his own path, and raise Arden to greatness. As he trains in secret, Ren allies himself with his childhood friends, the two princesses of Arden, Elara and Selene, who are both loyal to him and now central to his heart and mission. Together, they plot to outwit the nations that once betrayed him, strengthening Arden’s defenses and building allies among those who stand in the shadows. With a growing network of spies, newfound strength, and a burning desire for justice, Ren sets his sights on reclaiming control of his destiny and protecting his kingdom from those who would see it fall. His mission is clear: take revenge, save his kingdom, and claim the throne — becoming not just a hero, but the hero king Arden needs.

Figure out the mystery behind his lost memories. Warning/ What to Expect: 1) Psychological and Supernatural Horror 2) Supernatural Thriller 3) Mind-blowing action scenes and chase scenes. 4) Most realistic character interactions. 5) The first ten chapters of this book will focus on the psychological and emotional effects of the return by death ability on the Mc. So don't expect the Mc to go all mighty and all-powerful and immediately accept such an ability like most cliche novels u might be used to. Mc seems to be just like any ordinary human thrown in the midst of supernatural horror, forces and horrifying supernatural creatures. Therefore the first ten chapters will slowly delve into his mind and psychology. How he breaks and forges himself again and again. If you are looking for a novel whereby the main character doesn't go through any character development or doesn't seem realistic enough when faced with such dangers. Then this novel isn't for you. And I will advise against reading it. And even if you aren't really a lover of psychological and supernatural horror. Read the first ten chapters, and you will know why this novel has the potential to be on par with the likes of Shadow Slave or Advent of the Three Major Calamities by Entrail. Also, before the whole Awakening and Shii, Mc is stuck in what seems to be a cursed and wretched land to him. How he got there. He doesn't know. Just that he's doing everything he can to leave there. And all I can say to those reading this novel because of the whole Awakening shii and all that is to be patient. This novel will be quite slow paced yet fast paced. Read to know what I meant by that. so what are you still doing here reading this Dive into the novel and come back to thank me!!
