Renn von Lorraine accidentally traveled to a medieval European world full of Cthulhu elements and became the only son of the Duke of Lorraine. He found himself in a twisted supernatural world, with nine secret paths hidden in the shadows of history, and he was one of the inheritors of the Shepherd Path.
Here, the promotion of extraordinary people does not rely on cultivation, but on hunting - plundering the spirituality of others and devouring the power of similar people. After Ren awakened as the Sequence 9 Shepherd, he discovered that he could control the undead, drive shadows, and even... Turn the dead into eternal "collections."
However, as he explores the power, he gradually discovers:
The original sun, the mysterious source of matter residing in his sea of consciousness, was leading him to a forbidden path.
Family secrets - his father is a barbarian, the housekeeper is a shepherd, and his mother... Seems to be hiding a more terrifying truth.
Extraordinary price - Shepherds shepherd souls, but in the end, will they also become "lambs" of a superior person?
In this world, knowledge is pollution and power is curse. Wren must find a balance between madness and sanity, otherwise, he will lose not only his humanity... But also his soul.
