Outbreak

Monster: The Cursed Evolution

"To survive, he must evolve. To evolve, he must consume. But every step forward pushes him closer to becoming the very thing he fears..." Renji Kuroya was an ordinary office worker struggling to get by—until the day the world changed. When a dungeon suddenly materialized in the heart of the city, chaos erupted. Monsters tore through the streets, and hunters rushed in to fight. Trapped in the middle of the carnage, Renji should have died… but instead, he was infected by something far worse. A dying dungeon core fused with his body, turning him into a part-monster hybrid. Now, to survive, he must consume stronger beings—or risk being consumed himself. But every new power he gains comes with a price: instincts that aren’t his own, urges he can barely control, and a terrifying voice whispering in the back of his mind. As he struggles to resist the monstrous temptation within him, Renji learns the truth: dungeons aren’t random occurrences. They are prisons, and something ancient is trying to break free. The hunters fighting to stop dungeon outbreaks aren’t just exterminators—they’re executioners, eliminating anyone infected like him before they can become a threat. Hunted by the Organization, targeted by rogue factions, and stalked by an entity that knows more about his evolution than he does, Renji faces an impossible choice: Resist the mutation and be hunted like an animal. Embrace the evolution and risk losing his humanity. Or carve his own path and uncover the secrets buried within the dungeons. But the deeper he delves into this new reality, the more he realizes: his infection wasn’t an accident. It was a selection. And he wasn’t the first. But he might be the last.

THE PRINCE OF HERBS

1389 AD, Ming Dynasty, China "Guardsmen! Take him to his exile in Yunnan, right now!" "Fu Huang!..." "Shut up! Oh... how can my own son stab me from behind...

Zhu Su sharpened his voice. "The promise from a leader is not a children's game. Bear it in mind!" A man in early forties, who seemed to be the leader of rebels, held his spear up, shouted, "Fine!

The Hour of Death: Doombringer

When justice fails, vengeance takes its place. After his daughter Vanessa suffers a tragic fate at the hands of those she trusted, Horris turns to the one thing more powerful than the law—something ancient, something forbidden. With a single curse, he condemns the world to a slow, merciless death. No one is spared. A nameless plague spreads, twisting flesh, corrupting minds, and reducing order to chaos. As civilization crumbles, the truth becomes clear: this is no ordinary disease. It is retribution. And in a world where the guilty walk free, no one is truly innocent. ... Hours Later… Darius arrived at the hospital, and what he saw terrified him. Dozens of people lay writhing in agony, blood gushing from every opening in their bodies. Reporters, paramedics, and police officers surrounded the area, trying to make sense of the outbreak. “We’re here live at Stanbridge National Hospital, where it appears a deadly disease has broken out,” a reporter said, speaking into the camera. “Symptoms include uncontrollable screaming and severe bleeding from the eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.” Darius’ heart pounded. His mind kept flashing back to Horris’ curse. The Doombringer. He scanned the scene and finally spotted Betty, sitting in an ambulance. Stephan lay unconscious on a stretcher beside her. He rushed forward, but the paramedics blocked his path. “That’s my wife!” he protested. “I need to see if she’s okay!” “Sir, now’s not the time,” a paramedic said. “There’s an outbreak, and we have no idea how it spreads. For your safety—and for everyone else’s—we advise you to leave immediately.” “Please, I have to see them,” Darius begged. Before the paramedic could respond, Darius noticed something crawling on the man’s shoulder. “There’s something on you—” The paramedic turned his head—just as the worm leaped onto his neck. The second it burrowed into his skin, the man’s body seized up. A strangled scream tore from his lips as blood exploded from his eyes, mouth, and nose. Darius staggered back in horror. Everywhere he looked, people were screaming. Even the reporter who had been live was now convulsing on the ground, her camera abandoned beside her. A single word echoed in Darius’ mind. Doombringer.

BEGINNING.

In the secluded island of Alcantara, situated in the western region and spanning an area as vast as an entire country, a highly dangerous virus known as Biohazard 359 was stored within the secure confines of the HOPE laboratory. Due to the inherent risks associated with the virus, only a select few individuals were permitted to work within this facility, and the government took extensive measures to keep all information regarding the virus classified. However, on December 16, 2030, at 8:00 a.m., an alarming incident unfolded as it was discovered that one of the viruses had gone missing from the heavily guarded vault in laboratory 0000. This development prompted the authorities to take swift action. Consequently, on December 25, 2030, at 9:00 p.m., a complete lockdown was enforced on the island of Alcantara. Authorities confirmed that the missing virus had managed to bypass the security measures and was being transported to the port of South Sahara under the care of an individual named Steve. The situation took a turn for the better on January 5, 2031, when Steve was apprehended. However, to their dismay, it was discovered on January 10, 2031, that the virus was no longer in their possession. A woman, her face concealed by an all-black veil, was identified as the perpetrator broke the virus into the capital city of Sahara, a densely populated area. There, she unleashed the Biohazard 359 virus, which resulted in a rapid outbreak. The virus manifests symptoms such as shortness of breath, a feeling of suffocation, vomiting blood, and paralysis. After a mere three seconds, infected individuals transform into aggressive creatures, attacking others and consuming their flesh. The virus spreads rapidly, causing a surge in casualties and exhibiting increased speed as it spreads across the globe. Furthermore, those infected with the virus undergo mutations, acquiring enhanced physical abilities.
