Claimed by the Faceless Vampire King

Gift_Chanel
At the age of sixteen, Rhain suffered from a powerful curse that fed on his flesh every day. The people called him a monster. A faceless King. An ugly beast. People were repulsed by his face. Some said that if you looked at him, you would be cursed and die instantly. He began disguising his decaying self, but even that didn’t stop the rumors from spreading. Some called him the Faceless King. Others called him the powerful Vampire King, Rhain. Whenever something bad happened while he was around, people believed it was his curse was affecting them. And no matter how many rumors spread, he remained the most powerful King — not even the werewolves, their rivals, could defeat him. He had won countless wars and killed many werewolf Alphas. He was a vampire feared by everyone. At a young age, Rhain believed he would never live past thirty because of the curse he carried. Now known as the Cursed King, he must do everything he can to free himself from it. In order to be free, he ends up with a young girl, Harley — the daughter of an Alpha werewolf — whom the Moon Goddess bonded to him as his mate. Rhain would rather do anything than be with a werewolf, but when the curse began worsening, he was forced to kidnap her and take her to his country. He intended to use her to break the curse, just like the prophecy said. Rhain could never show his real face without someone dying from extreme fear — except for Harley, who wasn’t repulsed when she first saw him. She made him believe she loved his body, even though the curse had eaten away eighty percent of it, leaving him completely rotten. But is this another punishment from the Moon Goddess? Because the more time he spends with Harley, the more he begins to question whether killing her to break the curse is truly what he wants.

Apocalypse Online: Starting with an SSS-level Gluttony Talent

In humanity’s final war against the Demon Lord, the strongest heroes fell—not by the enemy’s hand, but by their own, twisted into madness by a cruel illusion. Betrayal. Bloodshed. Despair… and then, silence. Only one person remained: Riley—the weakest warrior of them all. Powerless. Ignored. Forgotten. But he saw through the Demon Lord’s deception. The tyrant was on the brink of death—so weak even a fly could’ve finished him off. And Riley did just that, drawing every last ounce of strength to bite off the demon’s head. Victory? Not quite. A final, desperate strike from the Demon Lord pierced him from behind, killing him instantly. But fate wasn’t done with him yet. Riley awoke ten years in the past—when the online game [Apocalypse] was launched. Before demons descended. Before monsters overran the world. And this time, he wasn’t starting from nothing. He had a decade of experience—and a second chance. Even more shocking, he didn’t awaken his old D-rank Strength Boost talent. This time, he received something far more terrifying: an SSS-level Gluttony talent! He could now devour anything—monsters, items, talents, even traits—and gain their power. Ding! [You have devoured: Iron Fang Wolf] [Acquired: +4 Strength, +2 Agility, Skill: Bite (F-rank)] [You have devoured: Goblin Shaman Acquired: +8 Intelligence, Skill: Mana Bolt (E-rank), Talent: Minor Spellcasting Efficiency] [You have devoured: Flaming Salamander Drake] [Acquired: +22 Endurance, Trait: Dragon’s Resilience, Skill: Flame Breath (C-rank)] Now, there was no demon, no god, no monster who would stand in his way. He would devour everything—and save the world. But the power of Gluttony was a double edged sword, and if he wasn’t careful… he could be the one getting consumed.
