With no answers and no way back, he chooses a new identity: Gilgamesh, a name of power, legend, and blood. Armed with a mysterious system and nothing to lose, Gilgamesh is learning how far he's willing to go. Every fight makes him stronger. Every kill brings him closer to something darker. Heroes die. Survivors adapt. *Don't miss the start of Gilgamesh, a Dark LitRPG Progression Fantasy featuring a flawed main character, deep worldbuilding, and a magic system where every choice has a price. Perfect for fans of Primal

[An Epic LITRPG with an unrepentantly evil MC]
**Very slow-burn with genociding, godslaying payoff**
[Warning: An unpleasant and very flawed MC who slowly gets worse. He is NOT a hero.]
Do not expect;
*A main character who does not need to struggle for anything.
*A meaningless leveling process.
*No bags of holding, instant inventory, telepathic party chat, instant fast travel, and a helpful system (or a fairy guide that explains everything).
*LitRPG elements that are so complicated that they distract from the story.
*Artificial mercy.
*On-the-nose political or social messaging.
*Harems.
*A main character who can do everything and is loved by everyone.
Expect;
*An introduction to a beautiful world steeped in the influence of the steppe, middle-eastern, and Asian cultures.
*A hopefully subtle discourse on the nature of evil and the corrupting influence of power.
*A realistic depiction of how a person would react to suddenly being transported to an alien world to fight at the behest of the gods.
*A magic system with a very real and dangerous cost.
n.b The MC is slowly going cuckoo. He is a bit all over the place and is definitely one tomato short of a salad. This is what happens when magic and the divine mess with you [at least in my mind!] This is a feature, not a bug. Enjoy the story.
