The Judgment came without warning, branding every soul with a divine Skill and a Status. For Zohrab, a former enforcer for a forgotten clan, it brought only the F-rank [Suture] and a death sentence. Hunted by the newly-empowered Warden, a man who despises him for a past crime, Zohrab is forced into the Umbralands, a wasteland teeming with chthonic beasts. But there, desperation becomes revelation. He discovers his 'useless' skill isn't just for closing wounds; he can stitch the organs of slain monsters into the blighted soil, forcing it to bear fruit - flora that grants permanent skills and stats when consumed. While the powerful elite fight over Dungeons, Zohrab cultivates a hidden arsenal, one terrifying harvest at a time. He plans to grow strong enough to disappear forever, but his forbidden horticulture unearths a chilling secret: the monster parts he plants are not random. They are pieces of a fragmented, ancient power - a power the Wardens and their mysterious benefactor, Elder Suliko, seek at any cost. Why does his simple skill hold the key to this world-altering puzzle?
