Reincarnated as a Problem No One Can Fix

seyomanci
Kazuki died doing what he loved most: absolutely nothing useful. But instead of peace, he wakes up in a broken world where gods gamble on mortals, monsters scream in ancient Latin, and everything he touches turns mildly cursed. Now branded as “The Vessel” and dumped on the infamous Infernal Path, Kazuki gains EXP every time he suffers—and boy, does he suffer a lot. Armed with a soup ladle, a sarcastic talking cat named Mistral, and a system that raises his corruption faster than his stats, Kazuki must navigate deadly dungeons, soul-eating relics, and a prophecy that claims he might be the reincarnation of an ancient cosmic disaster. Or maybe the disaster itself. Surrounded by a reluctant elf archer with emotional range issues, a battle-happy himbo, and a mage whose trust levels are permanently set to “knife,” Kazuki doesn’t know whether he’s destined to break the cycle… or become it. One thing’s for sure: he’s not the hero. He’s just the problem no one can fix.

Prey Amongst Predators

On the brink of death, Sol had expected nothing more than eternal peace from his lifelong suffering. But instead, fate dealt him an unexpected hand. The Melvires, a renowned family, rescued him that night, and his fate was rewritten. A man who called himself his father, along with the four sons who bore no resemblance to him, offered a life so far removed from his own, it felt like fiction. Ever since then, he had done everything in his power to make himself worthy of the life they gave him. Yet even as the years passed, some truths remained hard to ignore. The Melvires carried themselves with an elegance that seemed inborn, an air of distinction no effort could replicate. No matter how hard he tried, Sol always felt like an outsider trailing behind them–grateful, but never equal. Nevertheless, he dedicated himself to their service, believing loyalty was the least he could offer in return. But everything shattered the night he turned twenty when the veil was lifted. The Melvires finally revealed the sharp claws hidden behind their velvet gloves. Sol was nothing more than a sacrifice. The crown of their design. He fought hard to escape their reign of terror, but the more he resisted, the steeper the slope became. Every path forward was walled in inevitability. His spirit waned beneath the weight of isolation and betrayal, until all that remained was resignation. Perhaps this was simply the closing of a circle. If his life was the price for everything he had been given, then so be it. He opened his arms, ready to embrace death again, just as he had all those years ago. But what was with their sudden change in attitude? Why, after all the pain they had inflicted, did they now seem… wounded?
