Laying Low and Selling Weapons in a Murloc Tribe

[Dark Forest + Management + Light Sci-Fi + Slow Burn]

Li An, a good-for-nothing apprentice with a blind left eye and a blood feud to avenge, struggles to survive in a universe governed by the dark forest theory.

When he awakens the Myriad Forge, he thinks his chance to rise has finally come!

Yet he has no idea that every upgrade through forging exacts a permanent price: his senses, memories, and even emotions.

Only when he is forced to establish the Star Pavilion and struggles to grow under his enemies’ watchful eyes does he realize the truth!

His greatest enemy is none other than himself, as his humanity continues to slip away!

This isn’t a comeback story at all. It’s a soul-crushing road to becoming the strongest!
