Home/Badboy/The Rogue's Gambit
by Nico oeTTchen·Translated by Novel AI Studio
Nico Fünffinger, a spectral rogue haunted by the ghosts of his past, finds himself unexpectedly resurrected into a twisted RPG-like world. Armed with a 'System' that lets him steal the very essence of skills and abilities from others, he navigates a realm where power is currency and every encounter is a gamble. His cold demeanor, a shield against past betrayals, makes him an anomaly among the boisterous adventurers. Yet, the world is slowly succumbing to the 'Rending' - a cosmic decay threatening to erase all existence. Nico's personal quest for redemption through ultimate power clashes with the desperate need for a hero, forcing him to confront not just monstrous threats, but the very demons he keeps locked within. Can a man who trusts no one save a world he doesn't believe in?
