   Reader note

   I recommend reading these two books. The first one is a slower-paced series, but it gets really good when the world-building becomes more comprehensive in the later stages. The early development of the old village is a bit slow and can be confusing at first, but the plot becomes very engaging as it forms a closed loop, getting better and better as you read. The second book is a Korean book. The official website has only purchased two copies, but a dedicated reader has already posted all of them on Tomato. The second book is quite long, so if you don't have a lot of patience, you might want to read the manga first. If you have a lot of patience, I suggest not trying the second book.

    Similar, but the system is primarily based on the twelve divine pathways of Japanese mythology (Zeus's), with some alternative divine pathways as well. The protagonist's pathway is the Hermes pathway, and his first-tier ability is the Faceless One (similar to the Faceless Man, but I'm not giving away spoilers, you'll know this from the first few chapters). The plot is original; the author revised the first volume three times, and the foreshadowing and resolutions are very unexpected. The protagonist has a riddle-solving old man as a companion. Regarding the protagonist's personality, he's roughly lawful and neutral. Moreover, the old man is ruthless when issuing quests; while Cthulhu can run away, this protagonist has the old man demanding quests from him.

    This isn't a fantasy novel, but it does have a somewhat omniscient and omnipotent premise. The protagonist starts by posing as a god to make a deal with Kelvin, and also collaborates with the true creator. Medici even becomes his personal maid, and the story revolves around Medici's time as Amon's nanny. The author's writing is excellent, reminiscent of the original Mysteries novels, offering a sense of warmth amidst loneliness. It's the best Mysteries fanfiction I've read recently.
