This Information about the novel:
In the beginning… there was no curse.
But a cursed page was written in a language that does not belong to this world.
It was read one night… and since then, no one has slept without waking up in hell.
⸻
What is the Abyss?
The Abyss is not a place.
It is a nightmare that opens like the mouth of a dead man in the dark… waiting for those who dare to read it.
Whoever reads the cursed page is pulled into the depths of nightmares —
a world of shadows, inhabited by madness that feeds on the weak, and riddles that devour those who try to solve them.
⸻
Who are the Akuma?
Those who enter the Abyss and return alive are not called heroes… but Akuma.
Their name means:
The one who walked through nightmares and did not lose his name.
In this world, no one says "hunter" or "fighter",
only: "Is he one of the Akuma?"
⸻
Strength alone is not enough
In the Abyss, muscles and swordplay are not enough.
There are monsters that can only be defeated through understanding, and puzzles that can only be solved through loss.
Intelligence, insight, and psychological collapse… are all tools for staying alive.

Akuma Classifications
Power in this world is not measured in numbers… but by how much you gave up to survive.
1. Akuma Fool
The awakened fool.
Still runs around trying to understand the laws of madness… Most likely, will not survive.
2. Akuma Nightreign
One who lived with the darkness and didn't scream.
Holds a piece of the Abyss's madness… and can wield it.
3. Akuma Dantes
The one rewarded by the Abyss… because he was born to betray it.
Clever, deadly, adaptive… no longer follows human logic.
4. Akuma Saint
The Saint… he doesn't say who he is, his actions do.
The disasters of the dark fear him, for he has surpassed mere survival.
5. Akuma Nameless
When you reach this rank, you no longer need a name.
Even the Abyss calls you "Him".
The highest tier, and the quietest… because everyone either died or fled when one appeared.
⸻
Monster Classifications
Abyss monsters are not mere enemies… they are consequences of ancient human errors.
1. Abyss Intries
The basic fuel.
Empty shells you can unload your rage upon… though some are smarter than they appear.
2. Abyss Down Hell
The guardians of secondary nightmares.
Each has a weakness… but it always hides behind a massacre.
3. Abyss The Great
Zone bosses… their strength isn't just overwhelming, it's merciless.
The Abyss drank their souls until nothing remained.
4. Abyss The Witcher
Cursed by the Nine Calamities.
Those who fight them are punished… even if they win.
5. Abyss Elden
The highest form of nightmares… not just creatures, but disasters made flesh.
To defeat them requires intelligence, luck… and sometimes, temporary death.
⸻
Loot: Monsters aren't killed for nothing
When slaying Abyss creatures, black elixirs can be extracted
that enhance your abilities — but every dose changes you a little…
Reshaping your mind slowly, until you're no longer the person who entered the nightmare.
⸻
In this world, every step is calculated…
And every gaze into the Abyss makes it look back at you — twice.
