Kuroshio Minato thought he knew exactly how this went. He was seventeen, obsessed with RPGs, and had just been summoned to a high-fantasy world. Obviously, he was the chosen hero destined for absolute greatness.He was wrong. Dead wrong.In the Kingdom of Elvomor, there are no starter quests, no overpowered cheat skills, and Kuroshio can't even kick open a basic locked door. Instead, he has been branded by an ancient cosmic entity—The Abyss. A primordial force responsible for death and reincarnation itself, now fading after trillions of years, has chosen Kuroshio as its living vessel.His only power? Upon making physical contact with anyone, he doesn't just see the exact moment of their impending death—he physically experiences every single ounce of the visceral, agonizing pain.Stuck under the roof of a casual monster-taming serial killer who claims to be a literal child of the Abyss, Kuroshio has to navigate a dark fantasy world where his own mind is his greatest enemy. He isn't here to save the world. He's just trying to survive the phantom pain of a thousand different demises.
