In the magical world of Aetherus, Damon Grey is the weakest student at Aether Academy, relentlessly bullied and ridiculed for his lack of power and defiant personality. Yet, he endures the torment, clinging to his scholarship—the only thing providing him with the funds to keep his sick sister alive. 

After a brutal attack leaves him near death, Damon encounters a dark viscous entity in the forest that fuses with his shadow, awakening the Living Shadow System. This strange power grants him unimaginable abilities but comes with a grim cost—a relentless hunger for souls and flesh to feed his shadow. 

Now, with his shadow alive and insatiable, Damon faces a terrible choice: feed it to grow stronger or starve it and die with it. 

In a world ruled by ruthless nobles, deadly monsters, and power-hungry demons, Damon must decide if his newfound power is a curse or the only way to survive. With the Living Shadow System, his fate is clear: devour or be devoured.

My Living Shadow System Devours To Make Me Stronger

The Evil Forest was a place where light dared not tread. The dense canopy of ancient trees blocked out the sky, plunging everything below into an oppressive darkness. For Damon, it wasn't a problem—his shadow-enhanced sight allowed him to navigate easily.

He moved with measured, silent footsteps, his senses on high alert. His objective was clear: map out the area and identify locations where fires could start and spread effectively while staying hidden enough to avoid detection.

More pressing, however, was the need to avoid the creatures that called this forest home. Being on the outskirts of the Evil Forest meant the monsters here were likely weak—rank one, akin to someone of the first class advancement. But even those were more than capable of killing him.

Damon's shadow perception constantly expanded and retracted, scanning the area like a sonar.
