About this story
To survive, Nihil became a necromancer. He waded through rivers of blood and collected an army of corpses to storm the upper floors of the tower.
Tragedy struck on the 99th floor however and progression became impossible. His only ally? His greatest enemy and only remaining survivor, Hope, the girl with the silver gun.
Alone, the road ends here. Together, there's maybe a possibility of going back and fixing everything before it all went wrong.
The only twist? He has to abstain from necromancy and become the hero this time around, or else humanity might just finally make it off the red list of threatened species and land right in the history books.
