A global, supernatural battle royale has begun. There are Sounders with half their heads made of fungus, a chainsaw-wielding nurse in high heels, a faceless postal worker who delivers death, the Lord of Yellow Fog who devours cities…
Humanity has powerful Sequences, and the supernatural beings keep evolving. The only way to survive is to keep making it to safe zones.
Xu Wu, a veteran agent of the Cursed Name Sequence who refuses to reveal his name, understands its rules of survival all too well.
When he meets a powerful human:
“What a powerful presence! Whose general are you?”
Name acquired. That powerful presence is mine now.
When he meets a terrifying demigod:
“What an overwhelming aura! General, may I have your name?”
Name acquired. I’m a demigod now.
When he meets a powerful supernatural being:
“XXX! I’m calling your name. Are you going to answer?”
Name acquired. The supernatural being’s ability is mine now.
When he meets a supernatural being with no name:
No problem. The Lord of True Names can inscribe names. Now it has one.
