THE MARK FROM THE SLUMS

In a world ravaged by Abyss Beasts and guarded by divine gifts, awakening a Mark is the only way for the poor to change their fate. Will, a slum boy, gets Sacred Water bought at the cost of his father's divine blood, only to be humiliated by noble Serena and forced to lick the water off her shoe. He endures in silence, yet awakens the legendary Divine-rank gift of Thanatos, God of Death. Bruce, a noble prodigy with Zeus' Royal-rank gift, covets Will's childhood friend Ella and pressures Will to surrender his test slot. Mocked by everyone, Will declares he is Divine-rank. As black-red death mist surges, will everyone's fates in the sanctum be rewritten?
