His Eminence In Umbra: My Shadows Consume Flesh To Become Stronger!

WARNING: This story isn’t for the faint of heart. The main character is shameless, crude, and unapologetically ruthless. If you want a clean-cut hero who plays by the rules, this isn’t your tale. ------------------------------------------ But if you crave raw power, dark humor, divine legacies, and the rise of a shameless, ruthless legend — buckle up. Corven Umbrovante has been slowly biding his time, waiting for the proper moment to strike. Ever since learning that his father is Erebus, the Primordial God of Darkness and one of the most powerful beings in existence, Corven has been building his strength in secret. For despite being amongst the oldest and most terrifying beings in creation, Erebus is also amongst the most elusive. Few truly know of his existence, let alone his position within the divine hierarchy — especially mortals and the newer gods. But power attracts enemies. And Erebus has many. As the son of the Primordial of Darkness and the inheritor of a feared legacy tied to the a forgotten family who once ruled the Shadow Realm and its fallen powers, Corven quickly becomes a target in a brutal world ruled by divine cultivators, ancient Houses, monsters, and ruthless politics. In this world, strength defines worth, betrayal is currency, and weakness is an invitation to die. So Corven must grow stronger. Faster. Smarter. More ruthless. Because if he doesn’t, the enemies hunting him will bury him long before he ever reaches his full potential. His road is a bloody one, filled with war, betrayal, ancient enemies, and powers beyond mortal comprehension. Yet, with his yandere of a betrothed by his side, loyal friends at his back, and a primordial family that seems hellbent on gifting him absurdly overpowered abilities, Corven may actually stand a chance against the forces seeking his downfall... At least externally, anyway. Because the true enemy may lie within. See, power in this world comes at a cost. And Primordial Spawns are cursed notoriously worse than most. Born with limitless potential and favored by the universe itself, the stronger they become, the more their sanity begins to fracture beneath the weight of their own power. After all, the cost of power is madness and, as a Primordial Spawn, Corven has madness in spades. Suffice to say, if the enemies of Erebus don’t kill Corven before his ascension... His own insanity might just do the trick. He fights dirty. He talks back. Mercy? There is none left. This is not a story about heroes. This is the rise of a shadowborn monster the world tried to erase — and the legend that will force them to remember why darkness was the very first element in creation... And why it is feared. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Additional Tags: - Anti-Hero - Villain - Magic - Cultivation - Undead - Summons - Broken - Two Wives - Gods - Myths - Betrayals - Vengeance - Werewolves - Vampires - Demons - Warlocks - Witches ------------------------------------ Release Schedule & Bonuses • 2+ Chapters every 3–4 days • Bonus Chapter every third Friday • Power Stone Milestones:   • 35 = +1 Chapter   • 55 = +4 Chapters • 20 Shares = +2 Chapters ------------------------------------ Read.
