[Hybrid world view + systematic but plot flow + ancient hand rubbing throughout, no AI] "Knowledge is cursed, power is pollution, are you really immune to all the side effects of the occult?" "To be precise, it's immunity. I can exempt myself from all the costs in the occult." "Your Excellency, can you teach me? I have spent everything I have in order to master extraordinary power and enter the palace of mysticism!" "Sorry, this is my talent and I can't teach you." "Are you really a occult genius?" Pompeo slowly rose into the sky, stretched out his arms, and said in a chanting tone, "Next, I will use my talent to destroy the entire world. Well, as a genius of mysticism, this is the most merciful redemption for this polluted and cursed world." —— When mysticism and industrialized society collide, madness and rationality are out of balance. Some people enjoy this process, while others are hysterical about it, but their behaviors are gradually getting out of control.

The tree of life, sealed objects, alchemy, immortality seeds, monsters, cards, mysticism is everywhere. Today, the world war is involving everyone, and the moment our protagonist opens his eyes, the first thing he has to do is to survive!
