Born into an abusive, unstable family and crippled from a young age, Harley grew up with pain as his only constant. Happiness was something he learned about through books—fantasy novels, forgotten histories, and imagined worlds where suffering had meaning. Then he died, and death wasn't the end of his suffering. Reincarnated into the world of the last novel he read, where humanity survives an apocalypse through supernatural "Awakened" warriors battling creatures from beyond reality, Harley should have been given a second chance at a good life. Instead, he was discarded. Thrown out of the noble household he was born into, Harley lived as a slave in the mines, a circus clown mocked for survival, all to eat. So when fate finally offered him the chance to awaken—to gain power like the others—Harley broke once again. Because after surviving a horrific trial, the power he awakened—although powerful—had a fatal condition that he could never accept. ... Author's note: This novel is dark, and the first few chapters portrays the MC's mindset from being an ordinary man to getting chosen by the Harvest. Everything he does is for his own benefit. There would be a female lead, but you guys would hate her... I think. I personally liked the way I designed her. Anyways, see y'all at chapter 100. Side note... the book started out very slow.
