After dying during a marathon VR game testing session, an ordinary Korean gamer wakes up transmigrated into the body of Allen Olfols, the notorious, deadbeat scoundrel grandson of the Holy Emperor. But there is a massive cosmic glitch: while he retained his maxed-out Necromancer class from the game, his newly acquired physical vessel possesses the purest Holy Prince bloodline in the empire. In a holy imperial realm where necromancy and death magic are punishable by immediate holy execution, Allen must perform an impossible balancing act. By day, he puts on a righteous imperial facade, effortlessly purifying corrupted undead with radiant divine power. By night, he commands the very legions of darkness from the shadows, secretly expanding his spectral army to protect his new homeland from subterranean demon lords and royal succession schemers.

The continent is defined by the supreme dominion of the Holy Empire of Alfalls, centered around the radiant capital Lorencis (Laurenisis) and defended by fortified border redoubts such as the grim Lonia Fortress (the "Sacrificial Fortress"). Beyond the Empire lie the arid, unforgiving wastes of the Kingdom of Aslan - home to desert nomads, slave-trading hubs like Yebeluum, and hidden oases - and the arcane-driven Kingdom of Irans, renowned for mystical enclaves and the subterranean Taitalos Labyrinth. To the frozen, perilous north rest the glacier fortresses of the vampire nobility and the ancient seals safeguarding the primordial realm of the Jotun.
Power in the world balances divine radiance and necrotic authority, scaled through distinct spiritual tiers: Divinity relies on faith, sacred vows, and divine auras such as Kashim, while Necromancy draws on death mana, soul subjugation, and corpse manipulation. Allen breaks universal taboos by fusing both opposing energies into a singular divine-necrotic doctrine. Mortal Ranks (Tiers 1 - 3): Apprentice / Initiate to Acolyte / Soldier to Senior Knight / High Priest. Master Ranks (Tiers 4 - 6): Templar Captain / Bishop to Paladin Commander / Archbishop to Saint / Hero Tier. Transcendent Ranks (Tiers 7 - 9): Grand Duke / Primary Vampire to Holy King / Demigod Tier to Mythic Monarch (Vampire Kings, Progenitors, Kings of Jotun).
The Holy Empire & Imperial Church: Governed by the Alfalls royal bloodline, backed by militant wings including the Imperial Golden Cross, the punitive Crimson Cross, and the autonomous Heresy Inquisition. Vampiric Aristocracy: A covert network of ancient bloodlines, Primary Vampires, and Progenitors seeking to engineer continent-wide "Waves of Death" to harvest mortal vitality. The Black Order / Cult of Caiolium: Fanatical cultists serving demonic entities and orchestrating geopolitical subversion. The Desert Kingdom of Aslan: A martial civilization recently realigned under Holy Empire influence following the awakening of the World Tree.
Magic operates through ancient Astaloon/Aztalun Runes, divine relics, and celestial god shards. Soul binding requires absolute authority; ancient grimoires (such as the legacy of Necromancer King Amon) allow the sovereign to subordinate souls without standard degradation, imbuing undead with sanctified divinity.
A transmigrated modern soul and former virtual reality beta tester reincarnated as the frail, disgraced 7th Prince of the Holy Empire. Pragmatic, intellectually calculating, and ruthlessly efficient, Allen rejects dogmatic restrictions in favor of absolute results. Behind the guise of an unassuming prince, he operates as a shadow commander ("Heir of Gaia" / "The Angel"), purging corruption from within the church and nobility. Following the death of Emperor Kelt, he assumes the mantle of Holy King to defend humanity against ancient apocalyptic threats. Powers: Wielder of the Dual-Origin System (simultaneous Divine Holy Power and Forbidden Necromancy); Master of the Necromancer King Amon's Subordination Technique; Kashim (Divine Aura); Holy Musket Marksmanship; Astaloon Rune Inscription; World Tree Manifestation; Soul Summoning (Skeletons, Holy Dullahans, Archangels, and Divine Liches).
Chapter 1A silver-haired, crimson-eyed swordswoman of noble lineage who renounced the Imperial Golden Cross to pledge absolute fealty to Allen.

Chapter 3The 105-year-old sovereign of the Holy Empire of Alfalls. Imposing, uncompromising, and possessing terrifying martial power, Kelt maintains iron-fisted control over the continent.

Powers: Sovereign Golden Divinity; Ancient Imperial Battle Armor; Divine Lightning Manifestation; Continent-Class Aura Pressure; Legendary Grandmaster Swordsmanship.
Chapter 8The golden-haired Saint of the Imperial Church and granddaughter of Archbishop Raphael Astoria. Gentle yet unwavering in conviction, Alice harbors a pristine God Shard within her soul. Recognizing Allen's pure intentions despite his forbidden necromancy, she acts as his theological shield, research companion, and divine resonance partner during major sanctification rituals. Powers: God Shard Resonance; High-Tier Celestial Healing; Sanctuary Creation; Anti-Corruptive Holy Barriers; Archangelic Invocation assistance.
Chapter 22An eccentric, ambitious alchemist and arcane engineer who trades convention for radical breakthroughs. Drawn into Allen’s inner circle, Hans provides the logistical and technological backbone of the prince's military campaigns, transforming ancient monster materials into powerful growth elixirs and tactical teleportation frameworks. Powers: Master Alchemical Brewing (High-tier stat growth elixirs, monster-sap distillations); Spatial Artifact Construction; Spatial Warp-Gate Calibration and Deployment.

Powers: High Nature Spirit Communion; Elemental Bowmanship; Royal Aslan Lineage Aura; World Tree Spiritual Affinity.
Chapter 50An ancient, powerful Lich who formerly served as Aslan’s clandestine dark mage. Subjugated by Allen via King Amon's ancient soul-binding technique, Nasus transitions from a dangerous adversary into the prince's most intellectually formidable arcane general, leading undead research and casting battlefield-wide curses. Powers: High-Tier Necrotic Magic; Mass Curse Projection; Soul Severing; Bone Ward Architecture; Undead Legion Coordination.
Chapter 48The former martial sovereign of Aslan who ruled with tyrannical power and commanded war-elephant legions. Following his defeat, he is exhumed and resurrected by Allen as a Divine Undead Champion. Retaining his indomitable warrior pride and regal intellect, he fiercely shields his daughter Tinya from traitors. Powers: Resurrected Divine-Undead Physiology; Sandstorm Cleave; Grand Battle-Aura; Immunity to standard Holy Disruption; Unyielding Sovereign Will.
Chapter 62The ancient Vampire King who commands the northern undead realms. Ruthless, patient, and commanding ancient blood arts, Brandmir orchestrates continental purges to restore true vampiric hegemony.

Powers: 500-Year Ancient Blood Spear; Wave of Death Inception; Blood Mist Domain; True Progenitor Bloodline Regeneration; Cataclysmic Frost Sorcery.
Chapter 95A Primary Vampire Duke who orchestrates political coups and shadow insurrections.

Powers: Imperial Lineage Holy Shielding; Territorial Governance; Broad-Aura Defensive Wards.
Chapter 34An ancient monarch of the dead accidentally summoned by Allen in the vast Aslan desert. Imbued with immense physical power and archaic martial dominance, the towering skeletal king crushes entire battalions under his colossal broadsword at Allen's command. Powers: Colossal Undead Physiology; Mountain-Cleaving Cleave; Dread Sovereign Aura; Absolute Skeletal Command.

Ch. 57 - 70
Awakening deep in the Aslan desert alongside the exiled half-elf princess Tinya and the alchemist Hans, Allen accidentally summons the colossal Skeleton King Donn o Donnnchadh while surviving the harsh sands.
