   This is pretty good; the protagonist himself is a supernatural being. [Book Recommendation/Free] Looking for fans of pure supernatural dramas and dual male leads with a fated bond. The book is titled *Living in Place of the Dead: I Devour the Supernatural in the Human World*. [Warnings]: This is not a traditional wish-fulfillment novel, not a rule-based supernatural mystery, no female lead, no harem. It's a slow-burn serious drama, focusing on how an outcast learns to be human and maintains his daily life; the atmosphere is extremely strong. [Highlights]: The protagonist is an outcast who has been reincarnated and can devour supernatural beings; his childhood friend is a psychic support, and the two are a perfect match. It's currently close to 200,000 words, and the plot is getting intense! The protagonist just awakened his spatial abilities in the Grand Theater instance, and his nemesis, the villain, lost an arm to survive! Due to platform tag mismatch, there hasn't been much traffic in the early stages, so I'm asking readers who genuinely like this genre to give it a try. If you find the first few chapters slow, please be patient and read a few more; you definitely won't be disappointed.
