DING! 

[Ist Skill Devour Successful]
______
"They say a man's skills are honed over a lifetime, but what if he could devour them all in an instant?"

Ryuen Takeru, a skilled, retired assassin, decides to pursue a better job that would keep him away from the dark life he once led.

However, after a while, that peace was shattered when an unexpected train ride derailed reality itself, throwing him into a world and a life he had always hated.

A world teetering on the brink of ruin, destroyed by an apocalypse as a result of the unending war between multiple races.

A devastating twist, capable of destroying or elevating him—the one thing he had overlooked as normal until the moment he was informed.

A curse.

His confident steps echoed through the now-silent room.

"Well, well," the man drawled, crouching beside Ryuen's battered body.

"Looks like I got here just in time."

"They were actually right," he mused, leaning closer. "You're a delightful mess, aren't you? Hehe."

The scent of antiseptic lingered in the air, mixing with the beeping of the advanced machines and medical equipment.

The room had no windows, but it was ventilated perfectly.
