The 998th Outrider of Death

[WSA Official Entry]





At the brink of death, Kaizen Arakawa was offered a second chance — a new life in a world where gods, demons, and ancient powers lend their powers to the mortals.



Naturally, he accepted.



Now, thrust into a realm ruled by magic and myth, Kaizen is bound to a mission: recover seven legendary artifacts scattered across the lands. In return, power, purpose, and survival await.



But fate has a twisted sense of humor.



His patron was Death himself — weakened, forgotten, and barely clinging to relevance in a world that treats him as nothing more than a punchline.



With an old katana in hand and a crumbling god at his back, Kaizen must carve his path through trials, monsters, and betrayal…



All while carrying the name of the one being everyone has stopped fearing.
