On an ordinary day, a wave of dark energy swept across the globe, plunging humanity into an apocalypse of unimaginable horror.  
Amid the chaos, Grey, a reserved and unassuming accountant, is thrust into a nightmarish world overrun by zombies, mutated beasts, and eldritch creatures from beyond.  
Awakening a mysterious system, Grey discovers the ability to level up and grow stronger. Armed with his strategic mind and an unyielding determination to survive, he defies the odds, carving a path through the dangers that surround him.  
As his unique powers grow, Grey becomes humanity's last hope—and a terrifying threat to the otherworldly forces sowing fear and chaos. But Grey doesn't just face these creatures; he hunts them relentlessly, turning the apocalypse into his battlefield and every victory into a step toward ultimate power.

The Necrotic Heir

Grey sighed, rolling his shoulders as if to shake off the weight of hesitation.

If Pius had been an animal-type beast, he could've tamed it, making it his third companion.

Or if the undead had retained more of its humanity, a necrotic pact might have worked, bending it to his will.

"What a waste," he muttered under his breath, his tone carrying a mix of regret and resolve.

His grip tightened on the hilt of his blade as he drew another weapon, the steel humming faintly with energy.

The undead groaned again, a low, guttural sound, crawling slowly in the direction of the children. Its broken body dragged across the scorched earth, leaving smoldering marks behind.

Grey stepped closer, his gaze sharp but not unkind.

"The name of your boy… it's Noah, isn't it?" he asked, his voice calm, almost soft.

The undead didn't respond in words, but its flickering gaze seemed to brighten for a brief moment as if acknowledging the truth.
