Description
The abyss has invaded, and weird creatures and ferocious beasts run rampant. Qin Jinnian, plunged into this extraordinary world, is panicking a bit. Until the blood moon hangs in the sky, and a “Good Sister” with pig intestines stuck in her back knocks on the door. A panel appears… …… Then, more and more Authorities appear one after another, gradually becoming outrageous… …… Years later, the abyss invades on a large scale. Qin Jinnian looks at the billions upon billions of Abyssal Species before him, stroking his chin in contemplation. “Which Authority looks the coolest?” ◈◈◈ Qin Jin-Nian, a time traveler haunted by the ‘insufficient firepower phobia’ common to his kind, finds his new life in an extraordinary world of Blood Moons, monstrous Flesh Mountains, and mind-corrupting ‘good sisters’ turned wax figures. He awakens to a virtual panel granting him the Authority of ‘Shadow Control,’ a power that both terrifies and empowers him. Forced to adapt quickly, Qin Jin-Nian uses his newfound abilities to survive a night of rampant weirdness, culminating in a desperate battle against a Flesh Mountain-connected monster. He finds himself reliant on his Authority, particularly ‘Shadow Devour,’ to combat the overwhelming mental corruption and physical threat. The morning after, Qin Jin-Nian discovers the true potential of his Authority, leveling up his core skills and struggling to understand the rules of this dangerous world. He is drawn into the city’s web of extraordinary events when he rescues a neighbor and her daughter from a chaotic situation caused by a woman turning into a monster. Driven by a desire for greater power and a need to understand this world, Qin Jin-Nian seeks to exploit his unique Authority to gain strength and knowledge. He discovers the black market, a haven for the extraordinary and a source of both opportunity and danger. He kills a member of a mysterious church, and now he is a target. Haunted by the dangers he now faces, Qin Jin-Nian must navigate the treacherous landscape of this extraordinary world, balancing his desire for power with the need to protect himself and those around him from the horrors that lurk in the shadows.

My Thoughts on Abyssal Invasion, I Wield Dark Authority
"Abyssal Invasion, I Wield Dark Authority" definitely grabbed my attention with its blend of action, fantasy, and a touch of Lovecraftian horror. The premise alone – a protagonist navigating a world threatened by abyssal forces while wielding dark powers – is enough to pique my interest. After reading a good chunk of the available chapters, here's my take.
First Impressions
The initial chapters were a blast. The pacing felt spot-on, immediately throwing you into the thick of things. I was particularly drawn to the world-building, which has a unique, slightly unsettling vibe that sets it apart from typical fantasy novels. The MC's powers are interesting, and the story is well-structured.
What Works Well
The creative application of the MC's abilities is a definite highlight. Instead of just brute-forcing his way through problems, he uses his powers in clever and resourceful ways. I appreciate that the author avoids common tropes, like arrogant young masters and damsels in distress. The characters feel well-developed, and the MC, in particular, stands out. He's not an emotionless edgelord, nor is he driven by base desires. He has a solid moral compass, which is reflected in his decisions. Also, I found the female characters to be well-written and important to the plot.
Areas of Concern
While the initial chapters were strong, I did find myself questioning the MC's motivations later on. His constant need to hide his powers felt a bit forced at times, and I struggled to understand the reason behind it. It seems like the MC is overly concerned about hiding his powers. Also, the phobia mentioned in the synopsis is never brought up.

Final Verdict
Overall, "Abyssal Invasion, I Wield Dark Authority" is a fun and engaging read, especially if you're looking for a power fantasy with a unique twist. The creative use of abilities, well-developed characters, and intriguing world-building make it worth checking out. However, the MC's sometimes questionable motivations and the somewhat slow plot progression might be a turn-off for some. I'd say give it a try, especially if you enjoy stories with a slightly darker, Lovecraftian feel.
