In her first life, Sophie’s squad died to save her. In her second life, those that would protect her once more perish, leaving her alone. She’s sick of feeling helpless. Her system, a power granted to her when she was reborn, offers the broken girl a chance to seize power for herself, to never feel helpless again. And to hunt those that seek to hurt her. She will become a living legend, a figure of death. The Shinigami. Content Warning: This story contains intense and graphic depictions of torture and violence, particularly within the first ten chapters. Reader discretion is strongly advised. Please also note that the first 20 or so chapters are pretty rough in general. The romance will be a single female lead. I don't own anything other than my OC's and my own ideas.
