Thanks for the review.
To answer your questions, this won't be a harem (because I don't know how to write romance with multiple fl) and I won't drop the novel mid-way, so don't worry.
First of all, thanks for taking the time to comment, it means a lot!
And about the plot, High IQ is not equal to courage.
The hero Hercules is the definition of courage and strength, so what good or change would the story be if the one who possesses him is no different.
secondly, I am writing a progressive novel with character development, it isn't a novel where MC is a perfect being.
I hope you can understand!
[A soul forsaken by the Gods and a body on the verge of death - The Darklord of the Endless Abyss has noticed your existence and is offering you a contract. Will you accept?]
As he lay on unfamiliar land, his body covered in wounds and blood, Levi heard the voice of providence that he had craved for years.
In a magnificent and mutated future, the advancement of technology and space exploration has opened new paths unknown to humanity. Being the curious creatures they are, and with hopes of saving the dying Earth suffering from resource depletion, humans began to explore these unknown lands.
It was there that they discovered the treasures of the otherworld - artifacts and magical items that defied all scientific knowledge. But along with these treasures, humans also encountered dangerous and vicious monsters capable of tearing them apart with a flick of their fingers.
However, humans were persistent. The treasures of the otherworld were too enticing to ignore. They struggled against the odds and found a way to fight these monsters by making contracts with the gods.
The gods of the unknown lands bestowed extraordinary powers upon humans in exchange for the promise of extinguishing all the monsters. But not everyone was so fortunate, like Levi, who failed to pique the interest of any gods, and became one of the Forsaken.
The Gods had forsaken him, so Levi decided to forsake the world - he made a contract with the Demon King himself!

"So, you're telling me I wrestled three cyclopes last night and... won?"
Dr. Alexander Matthews, a myth-obsessed professor, never expected his latest research trip to Greece would lead to actually becoming Hercules.
After stumbling upon a cursed diary, Alexander wakes up in ancient Greece... only now he’s got bulging muscles, an olive-wood club, and a to-do list that includes slaying the Nemean Lion.
His body is built for heroics, but his mind is still very much a coffee-fueled academic. Between dodging centaurs and managing way too many injuries, Alexander struggles to keep his cool.
With ancient monsters to fight, divine drama to dodge, and the constant realization that he's really bad at ancient Greek armor, Alexander must somehow survive Hercules' legendary labors — all while trying not to faint from pain... or embarrassment.
"So, about the Nemean Lion... any chance it just needs a hug?"
He stood as the Tower's most formidable being, wielding unparalleled power and commanding an army of undead that struck fear into all who beheld it. The strongest knight and demonic dragon were his loyal servants, and his nine apostles instilled terror throughout the tower.
He was an absolute who had ultimate power under heaven.
Yet...
"Damn it!"
Even the tower's mightiest being couldn't stop the invasion from 'THEM.' He watched in silence as his demonic dragon fell from the sky, its wings torn apart, and his strongest knight collapsed under the relentless siege of unfathomable monsters.
"What the hell are THESE THINGS!!??"
One by one, his apostles fell, and his entire undead army was crushed into oblivion.
"Not like this!"
As the tower lay in tatters, threatening to crumble at any movement, the demonic emperor roared.
"I am the demonic emperor! Do you think I will go down that easily? If the heavens want to crush me, I will become a sword to pierce through it!"
In a desperate attempt to save himself, the tower's mightiest being activated a forbidden spell that should never have been cast.
"I shall return again!"
He roared.
"And when the time comes, I shall slaughter you all, bastards!"
Swearing vengeance, the flow of time and space was shaken up, and the demonic emperor found himself back in the past, before the Tower's arrival!!

New Novel Alert
Forsaken by the Gods, I made a contract with the Demon King
"I should've at least experienced sex once"
Plummeting towards the ground with all his limbs severed, Eren thought, regretting never having experienced the pleasure of the flesh.
His life flashed before him at his final movements, remembering him the hardships that he had experienced until now.
The movement when he witnessed the ashes left behind by the raging flames that set his homeland ablaze, the movement when his hand was slashed off, the time when he helplessly watched his master sacrificing herself, Eren couldn't help but remember all the sufferings that he had gone through in a world that deemed him unfit for greatness.
But despite the constant discouragement from those around him, Eren refused to give up and had desperately held onto his life, mastering the skills needed for his survival.
However, fate had other plans for him.
'The weak don't have the right to choose how they die,' Eren remembered the words of a dear friend as he felt helpless in his last movements.
But refusing to give in to the plans of fate, he swallowed an artifact knowing nothing about it as he fell towards the depth of the cliff.
A fitting end for a Ruined Noble!
That's what Eren thought as he fell to his death, but something inside him moved.
[ Searching for powers..… ]
– Abyssal greed –
– Power and tenacity –
–Talentless persistence –
And Eren….
Before he could realize what happened, he was in the body of his younger self.
With the Pendragon family still standing and his loved ones alive, he couldn't help but feel like this was his chance to finally challenge fate and rewrite his story.
Follow Eren in this tale of regret, redemption and rebirth.
