In a world shattered by the apocalypse, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction. Cities lie in ruins, and monsters-born from the darkness of despair-roam freely, consuming the souls of the living. Aric is weak, alone, and barely scraping by in this merciless wasteland. But fate offers him a terrifying gift: the Sorrow System, a power that grows from the suffering of others. By consuming the anguish of defeated demons, Aric can become stronger-but every drop of sorrow he absorbs threatens to consume him in return. Haunted by visions of torment, Aric must learn to master this dark gift. Along the way, he will forge bonds with allies, face impossible moral choices, and confront the horrors of a world ruled by the Demon King. Will Aric rise from the ashes of despair to become humanity's savior, or will the endless harvest of sorrow transform him into the very monster he fights against? "Harvest of Sorrow" is a dark, post-apocalyptic fantasy webnovel of survival, power, and the emotional cost of strength.
