Synopsis
In the world of Gaia, humanity ruled the world for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of years, and lord over all creation. However, a single cataclysmic event changed everything, subverting what was regarded as the natural order and placing humanity at the bottom of the food chain. The animals that humanity once knew and regarded as pets and livestock became terrifying beasts with monstrous strength and a horrible grudge that threatens the extinction of humankind. Kingdoms fell, lands were lost, and many lives perished as humanity retreated to their final haven, the Human Domain, an unnatural piece of land surrounded by high mountains. With the high mountains as their walls and a great wall that took all of humanity to build as their gate, humanity successfully stopped the beast tides' advances and herald in a new era of peace. Five hundred years later, the long-standing peace of humanity finally turned turbulent once more. In the new era of chaotic changes, Leon awakened the memories of his past life and arrived at a crossroad in his life. To stop at nothing in his pursuit of power and vengeance of his past life, or to lead the struggling humans in the battle against the threat of extinction and herald them into an era of true prosperity. Follow Leon on his journey as the two worlds of past and present collide, exploring the mysteries of the universe, and discovering something much bigger than himself. =====Bonus Chapter Missions===== 500 GT - 1 Bonus chapter 1000 GT - 2 Bonus chapters 1500 GT - 3 Bonus chapters 2000 GT - 4 Bonus chapters Note: GT = Golden Tickets [Currently on break] =====Tags===== [Reincarnation] [Fantasy] [Eastern Fantasy] [Western Elements] [Weak-to-Strong] [Adventure] [Mystery] [Action] [R-18] [Harem] [Ecchi] [Smut] [Polygamy] [Cultivation] [Alchemy] [Arrays] [Formations] [Runes] [Apocalypse] [Elves] [Demons] [Beasts] [Dragons] [Phoenixes] [Gods] [Devils] [Laws] [Magic] [Vast Universe] [Multiple Worlds] [Love Interests Fall in Love First] [Overpowered MC]...

Many of the Roman horror stories also came from their interactions with other cultures. As the Roman Empire expanded, they assimilated the folklore of the conquered peoples. Some elements from Greek mythology, for instance, made their way into Roman folklore and took on a more horror - tinged form. The story of Proserpina has roots in Greek mythology but was adapted by the Romans. This cultural exchange and the need to understand the unknown led to the development of these horror stories.
