Mason’s Revenge Chapter 1: Reborn
Year - 2230.It all began in 2230...Portals of unknown origins appeared worldwide, known as "Crypt,"each connected to myths and legends. This was believed to be from the power hidden in historical stories. The danger came from powerful artifacts inside. Claiming these artifacts brought wealth and abilities, changing lives and the world. People gained mythical powers, rising in rank. It became a world where anyone could rise with the right artifact. However, by 2250, hope turned into a nightmare. The world split into those with artifacts and those without. Emperors, with the strongest artifacts, ruled with absolute power. Governments couldn't oppose them, rewriting laws to keep the powerless trapped in poverty as modern-day slaves. Mason, stuck in the lower class, had to serve an Emperor for escape. He worked for Depay Husk, promised help in return for loyalty. Mason did everything for Depay, even risking his life, but it was all a lie.But it had all been a lie.Mason stumbled throu
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 2: Let the Race Begin
Mason leaned against the cold wall of the police station, his mind racing. His memory was sharp, almost too sharp. He could remember the smallest details from years ago, like the phone number some random stranger had given him on the street. That’s why the scene playing out in front of him felt all too familiar.It was early evening, just as he recalled. The same smug student stood behind his mother, smirking. ‘That bastard started all this after having too much to drink,’ Mason thought, clenching his jaw.The student laughed, sneering. “What’s with that stare? You’re the one who messed with me while I was studying for exams! My hand’s useless now because of you.”His mother added with fury, “The doctors say it’ll take eight weeks for him to fully recover! Are you going to take responsibility if he fails his college exams? Are you going to ruin my son’s future?”Mason couldn’t help but scoff. ‘Eight weeks to recover from that? Yeah, right.’He muttered under his breath, “What a joke.”
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 3: The Great Crypt
Mister Depay had been one of the first to claim a Legendary-Grade Mythic Item during the early stages of the Crypt outbreaks. That alone had made him untouchable, but now Mason had a chance to change all of that.‘I need to move faster than that bastard,’ Mason thought, his mind racing.The best plan would be to prevent Mister Depay from getting his hands on the item in the first place. If Mason could reach it before him, it would change everything.He clenched his teeth, a ghost of the pain from his past life—where his limbs had been cut off—still haunting him. The memory wasn’t just painful; it was a reminder of the hellish existence he had endured.‘This isn't just about revenge,’ Mason reminded himself. ‘I need to avoid repeating that life.’His resolve solidified. With one last glance at the police station, he turned and started to leave. Time was short, and now that he had returned to the past, there were a thousand things to do.‘First... Europe,’ he thought. The most profitabl
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 4: Preparations
The era of Mythic Items would begin in a few months, and Mason didn’t have the luxury of wasting time on these thugs. He needed to focus on the Crypts and securing his own Mythic Item before others beat him to it. But first, he had to deal with these lowlifes and tie up loose ends.The men, oblivious to Mason’s change in attitude, scoffed and sneered at him.“What the hell is he talking about? Pay? Compensation?”“Mason Monroe’s lost his damn mind. Looks like we need to remind him how things work.”“Hey, idiot! You think you can talk big when you don’t even know how to fight?”Their insults rang out as they charged at Mason, fully convinced they could overpower him. To them, Mason was still the same weakling they had exploited for years. But Mason clicked his tongue, watching them come at him.“I expected this,” he muttered. “You leave me no choice.”With lightning speed, Mason moved. He jabbed his fingers into a vital point on the first man’s clavicle, sending him crumpling to the gr
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 5: Bane of my Existence
Vizas had a reputation for being a brawler. In contrast, Mason had always been the quiet one, not even a real thug. Despite holding a knife, no one expected him to be able to handle a seasoned street fighter.“Quit acting tough!” Vizas shouted, raising the brick.But then something strange happened. Mason’s hand, the one holding the knife, seemed to blur, almost disappear.Vizas froze, confusion clouding his face, just before a sharp, burning pain erupted from his side.“Aaaah! You bastard!” Vizas screamed, collapsing to the ground, clutching his bleeding side.“Boss!” his men shouted, rushing to his aid.Vizas writhed in agony, his mind racing. This was no ordinary knife fight. The Mason he knew had been scared of blood, weak, and passive. Now he fought like a maniac, his movements precise and merciless.‘This isn’t just some martial arts trick… what the hell happened to him?’Mason approached, twirling the knife in his hand. The men panicked, backing away as he got closer.“Stay bac
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 6: Fairy Juice
"This isn't worth more than $50,000."Mason raised an eyebrow. “What did you say?”The appraiser scratched his head, looking uncomfortable. “I wouldn’t bother trying to sell this. No serious collector or dealer would be interested.”Mason frowned. The thugs had acted like the Buddha statue was worth millions, but now he was stuck with something barely worth the price of a car.‘Fifty thousand dollars?’ Mason thought, puzzled. Vizas had been desperate to take it back, convinced it was a fortune.He briefly considered if the appraiser was lying, but he had seen these types before. This man wasn’t interested in deceiving him, just dismissive.Mason sighed as he left the shop, muttering under his breath, ‘Did those idiots mess up the appraisal?’He had counted on selling the statue for some quick cash, hoping to use it to hunt for Mythic Items. Now, it seemed like he had wasted his time.‘Maybe it’s my fault for not checking it thoroughly.’ Mason hadn’t inspected the statue closely befor
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 7: The First Crypt
The complex that should have been there was nowhere in sight. Instead, a large, round hill rose before Mason, resembling an enormous Crypt.‘That’s definitely a Crypt.’But a Crypt appearing at his home?As he tried to piece together what happened, a memory surfaced. His roommate had called him earlier, panicked because their apartment had vanished while Mason was stuck working for those thugs.At the time, he dismissed it, thinking the Crypt would disappear soon. But if a Crypt had vanished...‘Does that mean someone cleared it?’Determined not to let this opportunity slip away, Mason pressed on. As he approached the site, he heard raised voices.‘It’s definitely around there.’When he arrived at the chaos, he found about a hundred people engaged in a brawl.“Who are you to ignore me? Huh? Are you some kind of cash machine?”“Hey! Don’t look down on us guards! Who are you to fire us?!”“Let go of me!”“Who stole my backpack?!”The crowd was out of control, with cops and soldiers stru
Mason’s Revenge Chapter 8: Cheat
A loud explosion echoed through the darkness as the chaos subsided. People worked frantically to destroy the Crypt.“Look! We made a hole!”“Can we blow it up a few more times to get inside?”The civilians had fled long ago, leaving the soldiers to focus solely on the destruction of the Crypt.“Everything seems fine. We’ll try again,” one soldier said.They used weaker explosives to minimize damage to the surrounding city, but it appeared to be effective.“We’ll enter carefully once we create a bigger opening.”-Alright.-They believed entry was imminent. However, anxiety lingered among some.“Damn it!”Yuri, an excavator from the JSDF, and Mai Lee from Korea felt the pressure. Yuri’s frustration peaked.‘Why isn’t the entrance showing up?!’They needed the entrance to access the Crypt, but it remained elusive.‘It’s been thirty minutes.’The seer with Sho-Toh-Ku’s Mythic Item had claimed the entrance would reveal itself if they destroyed the Crypt. By now, it should have appeared.‘I

Chapter 20: Demon Prince
Mason smiled with murderous intent at Sasaki, noticing the Future Diary. Despite her disguise, Mason recognized Sasaki and found her too heavy on makeup. Planning to eliminate her as his enemy, Mason prepared to use Muramasa. When Mason reached for Muramasa, Sasaki unexpectedly asked to be his fan, causing confusion among them all. Mason questioned her, leading Sasaki to backtrack and close the sliding door.The restaurant was silent as Sasaki slid the door shut behind her. The soldiers lurking outside tensed in disbelief. “What is she doing?!” one of them hissed. “Why’d she close the door? We can’t see a thing now!” Hidden in the kitchen and behind tables scattered across the dining room, the soldiers exchanged frantic whispers. “Is this some secret plan? Could this be Colonel Mouri’s orders?” “Maybe she’s trying to distract the Korean. Seduction tactic, perhaps?” “That must be it. Sasaki’s loyal to Japan—she’s probably thinking about the greater good. There’s no way she
Chapter 19: Master of Fate
There are various types of magic items. Most of them are beneficial to humans, but there’s likely no ability more coveted than the power to predict the future.This explains why anyone who d an magic item with the ability to foresee events was treated with such high regard."The Future Diary is one of those magic items."However, the person using the Future Diary failed to gain favor with the powers that be.Why?Beca the r was a fool. Moreover, despite the Future Diary being a top-tier magic item (Hero-grade), it had a critical flaw.That might be the reason why, despite Japan initially benefiting greatly from the Future Diary, its r was eventually killed by another seer in the future.That seer would later rise to power, earning the title *Master of Fate.*This explains why he hadn't paid much attention to her. She was doomed anyway.However..."If things are going to unfold like this, the situation changes."Her actions didn’t matter much, but if they ended up affecting him, that w
Chapter 18:The healing Magic
Mason was momentarily taken aback. He vaguely recalled seeing a message earlier about the mission’s reward being distributed once he left the Crypt. However, he couldn’t help but feel confd by the entire situation."Am I going to receive an item, some experience, or maybe even money, like in a video game?" Mason md, struggling to fully understand what was happening.Right on cue, another message appeared before him."Before receiving the reward, please take time to carefully choose."" Your Chosen Path "-Way of BalanceThe prompt was peculiar, causing Mason to furrow his brow in confusion. His sharp instincts, however, quickly kicked in, and he grasped the meaning behind the choices—it was asking him to choose between control and connection. Instead of feeling surprised, he felt a wave of irritation. The timing of the message was suspicious, appearing just as he had been contemplating the balance between control and harmony. ‘Is someone trying to test me?’ Mason wondered, reminded
Chapter 17: Fame
.Mason stood with his arms crossed, staring down at the man clinging desperately to a crumbling ledge. The man’s voice was hoarse from shouting, his desperation clear. “Please, let me out! I’ll pay you a fortune—anything you want!” the man begged, sweat dripping down his face. “I swear you won’t regret it!”Mason raised an eyebrow, his voice calm but cold. “Anything, huh? That’s a big promise.”“Yes! I’ll make sure you’re rewarded heavily. Name your price—money, artifacts, whatever you want!” The man’s grip on the ledge was slipping, but his eyes stayed locked on Mason, trying to gauge his reaction. Mason leaned slightly closer, his tone skeptical. “You think I’m stupid? Why should I trust you?”The man’s expression faltered for a moment before he forced a smile. “Because I’m useful! I’m connected. I know things about Crypts—about magic items. Work with me, and we can both benefit. What do you say?”“Work with you?” Mason repeated, a faint smirk playing on his lips. “You mean afte
Chapter 16: Powerful Aura
Mason’s powerful aura overwhelmed the dagger, forcing it to submit as it screeched in pain. "You filthy human!" the magic item’s voice hissed, echoing in Mason’s mind, a sound only he could hear.But the defiance didn’t last long. Within moments, the dagger’s resistance crumbled, and the once menacing red aura around it disappeared. The blade, which had been raging with fury, now fell into an eerie silence.*It’s done.*Information from his spy system flashed before him, revealing details about the subdued magic item."Ebon Steed’s Basicd Dagger (C-Grade: Common-Grade-Limited )"- Remaining s (862/1000)Mason chuckled to himself. A mere C-Grade magic item had dared to resist him.*So, this is one of Ebon Steed’s weaker versions.*Ebon Steed wasn’t just a single blade, but a line of magic items, ranging from lower-tier C-Grades to the legendary A-Grades. This one, being a C-Grade, was clearly a lesser magic item compared to the one that had created this Crypt.Narrowing his eyes, Mas
Chapter 15: Big Quest Rewards
A mission window appeared along with the message."You have successfully awakened all four dormant skills and are now a fully-fledged Crypt Seeker.""Mission completed. You will receive a reward upon leaving the Crypt."The mission Mason had seen at the police station was completed. He found the game-like reward system amusing, but he was curious about what the reward would be. ‘I need to get Ebon Steed and get out of here,’ he thought as he exited through a side route. He had chosen a longer but safer path since the route to Ebon Steed was full of traps. That Yuri guy was probably struggling with them since he wouldn’t know about this secret route. ‘The civilians will be able to leave once I clear the Crypt.’Suddenly, Mason heard unexpected noises as he neared Ebon Steed’s location.“Aaaaaah!”The scream sounded familiar. It was coming from the trap-filled path Mason had avoided. As he got closer, he saw a disturbing sight.“Help! Please, save korea!”The screams were coming from a
Chapter 14: The possible outcomes
Yuri felt his heart pound in his chest as he realized something was terribly wrong. His magic items—his most prized possessions—were missing. Panic started to creep in. He patted his pockets, his jacket, even his belt, but nothing. They had completely vanished. *How could this happen?* His mind raced as he tried to piece it all together.He had already lost the person mentioned in the prophecy, and now his magic items were gone too? Desperation gripped him, and sweat beaded on his forehead. It felt like the situation was spiraling out of control, slipping further and further from his grasp.‘What is going on?’ Yuri thought, his pulse racing.Suddenly, a memory from a few days ago hit him. It was that brief encounter with Mason at the convenience store. Mason had casually picked up his ID, which had supposedly “fallen” from his pocket. Yuri had found it strange at the time. Something so secure, something that was always tucked away safely, falling out like that? It hadn’t made sense.‘
Chapter 13: An Offer
Mason stood near the man, arms crossed, eyes narrowed. The man, desperate and disheveled, on his knees, voice shaking, pleaded."Let me out! I'll reward you heavily,"the man said.Mason raised an eyebrow. "What does that mean?"The man straightened, hope in his eyes. "A hundred million—or a billion dollars yearly! I can make it happen. Just help me!"Mason scoffed. "Good deal,"he said, thinking.‘This guy is dangerous. I need a smarter way.’"I know you're considering it,"the man said confidently.Mason smirked. "Can I trust you? You stole from me."The man stiffened. "Misunderstanding. I’ll return everything. Just let me out!"Mason stepped closer, gaze piercing. "The Ebon Steed in my backpack. Trustworthy?"The man hesitated. "Crypt is collapsing. Help me, I owe you."Mason thought quickly. "Fine. Work for me. No lies, no tricks. Or else."The man agreed. "Deal. I’ll follow your lead."The man nodded eagerly. "Deal. I’ll follow your lead, whatever you say!" Mason leaned down sligh
Chapter 12: The Auction
“Are you talking about ‘Greedy Seekers?’”Riley's heart raced. They had participated in the infamous underground auction in Las Vegas, where stolen national treasures attracted royals and leaders. Access required over 100 million dollars just for a ticket, and Juliana had leveraged her connections to get them in.‘Why does Mason want to know this now?’Mason’s voice cut through his thoughts.-I’ll keep this brief. Attend the auction this month, acquire specific items, and locate a person named IB—Ivan Blast. Find out what he’s buying.-“......Ivan Blast? Who is th—”Mason interrupted him.-If you don’t find him, make sure to inform me. But if you lie about seeing him, I will kill you.-“Could you at least tell me who Ivan Blast is?” Riley shot back.-If you understand, meet me at Moonbucks Cafe by Delway station. I’ll provide a list of the items you need.-“Damn it! Who is Ivan Blast?!”“No need for you to know.”“Hey!”“This is business now. I’ll pay you based on the quality of your
