Infinite Divine Gears in the City Novel

Ten thousand years have passed, and the spiritual energy tide has surged back. Prosperous Tokyo has reverted to the Edo Period, overrun by supernatural creatures. Across the globe, ancient powers stir: a Pharaoh awakens his army in the desert, vampires and werewolves clash in Eastern Europe, witches and evil spirits haunt Europa's markets, and the feathered serpent stirs in the Americas. Humanity has fallen from its apex, gripped by the fear of forgotten legends. In this world of rampant demons and monsters, Lester faces a ferocious worm. He requests a formidable array of defensive and offensive gear from his system. Despite his lack of inherent talent, Lester declares his intention to crush the monsters. His abilities, like "Grasp of the Undying" and "Dark Harvest," grant him life and damage bonuses. When presented with mutated creatures to consume, Lester initially refuses, but a system notification reveals a life value increase, leading him to surprisingly declare they taste great.
