Unwiped
He's died more times than he can count — and remembered every single one.
Every night at midnight, the world resets. Everyone dies. Everyone forgets. Roy doesn't.
He's watched his own family slaughter each other in the dark, over and over, for thousands of loops — and woken up the next morning to a mom who has no idea it happened.
This time, something breaks. His memories don't wipe. The loop has a crack in it, and he's standing in it.
He's not the first to escape — they call themselves Breakers, people who slipped the leash of the reset and are still alive to talk about it.
Power here isn't trained, it's eaten. Monster hearts, brains, eyes — swallow it raw, or stay weak forever. Roy's done being weak.
He's pulled into a world of zombie revenants who can't die twice, S-rank elders who speak in riddles, kings who weaponize mass murder, and one woman who seems to exist somewhere the universe forgot to finish.
One goal left: get strong enough to tear the loop apart from the inside — or die trying, again and again, until it stops counting.
A progression fantasy with a body-horror power system, a slow-burn mystery, and a protagonist who's already failed a thousand times — and is done pretending that's the end of the story.
