HEXSHOT - Marked by the Gun God, the Weakest Hunter Becomes a Legend

In Velmark, monsters are just part of life. If you want to survive—or protect anyone—you need to become a Hunter. And to become a Hunter, you need a divine Mark from the gods. Most people awaken early. Fifteen. Sixteen. Sometimes even at birth. Me? I made it to twenty-one with nothing. In Velmark, anyone who reaches twenty without a Mark can pretty much say goodbye. Dream on, because you’re never becoming a Hunter. I was just a countryside nobody living in the shadow of my older brother, chasing a dream that probably wasn’t meant for me. Then one day, it finally happened. A Mark burned itself onto the back of my hand. But... it wasn’t from some famous god of war or magic. It was from Hexaron—the forgotten Minor God of Guns and Technology. Apparently, even the other gods think he’s a joke. And the class he gave me? Hexshot. A revolver-based support class with only six magic bullets. Six shots, and then I’m useless. So yeah… people laughed. But what they don’t know is that I have a secret. Inside my head are memories that don’t belong to this world—memories of legendary gunsmiths from places long gone. And if those memories are real… Then maybe I can do something no Hexshot has ever done before. Become the greatest Gunslinger - "The Legendary Gun Saint" With Kohaku, my salamander Kindred at my side, rival Clans watching me closely, and the mysterious Aeon Pillars—towers that hold entire timelines—waiting for the Marked… My life as the weakest Hunter is only just beginning. And somehow… The Gun God’s “worst blessing” might change Velmark forever.

Two Face World

In the rain-veiled world of Astea, the sky has not cleared for generations. Beneath eternal gray clouds, humanity survives through artificial sunlight, indoor cities, and fragile alliances built on fear, profit, and power. On rare nights, a crystalline droplet known as an Astea Tear falls from the heavens—granting miraculous abilities called Asten-Drives, while condemning their bearers to irreversible side effects. These miracles fuel empires, criminal syndicates, governments, and faiths alike. After the death of his mother, Nickle Amacaria, a former vigilante haunted by recent loss and resentment, receives an unexpected invitation from the rising Wingarde Family—a powerful organization determined to challenge the rain itself. Drawn by shared ideals and unresolved grief, Nickle leaves his past behind, puts on a new face and hoping for new expectations and expereiences and journeys to the vast metropolis city of Eura-unichario, where disputes between families, associations, syndicates, factions, and even the government itself erupt daily beneath the unchanging sky. As Nickle takes on new missions, forges bonds, and confronts enemies shaped by the same cursed miracles, he starts to wonder if the rain he hates may or may not be a disaster—maybe even be a foundation holding the world together? Is the sun still even there, hiding behind the thick grey rain clouds? Who even knows... Because in a city where every single type of power you could possibly think of has a price and every ideal casts a shadow, Nickle must decide what kind of future is worth fighting for. Because in Astea, every miracle has two faces.
