In a world forever changed by a cataclysmic event, a colossal meteor crashes into Earth, wiping out more than half the global population. But what first seems like a tragedy turns out to be an unexpected gift. The meteor holds mysterious energy that awakens supernatural powers within certain humans.

Along with this awakening, rifts—known as portals—begin appearing all over the planet. These portals are gateways to the Abyss, a terrifying realm ruled by monstrous creatures. But humanity, ever resilient, doesn’t retreat—they fight back and establish a foothold even in the heart of this darkness.

Amid this chaos, a 60-year-old man named Zack is betrayed and killed in the Abyss by someone he trusted deeply—his own friend.

But death is not the end.

Zack awakens to find himself back in his 20-year-old body, decades in the past. Now armed with the knowledge of the future and burning with the desire for revenge, he sets out to change everything—his fate, the world's destiny, and uncover the true reason why he was reborn.

To find out the secrets buried in time and the path to vengeance, dive into the thrilling novel:

Reborn in the Wake

Reborn in the wake

And just as the monster got serious,

it landed a powerful punch on Zack,

sending him flying far through the air.

Zack crashed to the ground, rolling violently—

The monster slowly approached him, step by step.

"You humans... you've become a nuisance.

You've ruined my plan—

so now, I'll ruin you."

"What plan...?"

"You were going to form a contract with my friend Albus, right?

You were going to control him!"

"You know quite a bit for a human.

I have to give you credit for your courage...

but you're only half right.

I wasn't going to control him—

I was going to kill him and take his form,

so I could enter the human world disguised as him."

"And now… you're about to die.

Even knowing all this, there's nothing you can do."

Everything he had believed until now,

everything Kalthok had told him—

was starting to contradict this new truth.

He was confused, overwhelmed, and broken—

"You're lying!" Zack shouted, barely able to stay upright.

The monster burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha!

Looks like you're losing your mind now.

No matter—I'll take your form instead,

go to the human world as you,

and the first thing I'll do…

is kill those nine humans who came here with you."

Zack couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"No… this can't be true…"

Until now, he had always believed Albus was the traitor—

the one who betrayed him and tried to kill him.

In fact, Albus was never even alive long enough to betray him.

Albus had died on this very same day…

was actually this Original Monster,

"So all this time… I was wrong.

The real enemy… is was you right in front of me."

"Real enemy? What are you muttering about? You're about to die anyway."

But a storm was raging in Zack's mind.

"Why didn't Kalthok tell me this?

He never mentioned Albus' death...

"No... there must be a reason behind it.

Zack, his voice shaking with rage, asks:

"Why did you choose Albus?"

"Oh, that human?

I had my eyes on him for a while.

He seemed... easy."

Zack's rage was now beyond control.

The truth had shattered everything he believed—

for his friend Albus, who was murdered in his previous life.

"Oh? You still have the strength to stand?"

"Oh really?"

but the monster was still too strong.

Suddenly, the monster grabbed Zack's sword,

"Hmm... quite a sturdy sword."

"Fine. Then I'll just tear off your arm instead."

the pain was beyond anything imaginable.

"I've changed my mind.

I won't kill you—

I'll leave you here to die.

Your internal organs are damaged.

You've lost an arm.

What can you even do now?"

Zack, through clenched teeth, growled:

I'll turn this entire Abyss into a graveyard."

"Well then, survive first."

the monster vanished into the shadows.
