Alex, a special operative on Earth who died during a mission, finds himself transmigrated with the identity of an investigative journalist as an agent of a mysterious entity with a simple mission.

With the promise that he would be reunited with his family once he was done, Alex accepts the offer and becomes an agent of darkness in a new world teeming with steam-powered machinery and something more... The supernatural.

In this new world, he will have to navigate his way through crazy witches, bloodthirsty monsters, religious fanatics, and fallen angels while slowly making his way toward his end goal... Returning to the family he left behind.

A journalist by day and a hunter by night, this is the story of the Hunter of Evernight.

Eternal Night receded like a lie, returning to Alex's shadow, revealing those who were in it to the outside world.


Alex stood upright with his hands in his pockets while Humphrey stood to his right and Charlotte, to his right.


Azazel knelt before the trio, his head bowed and his thoughts unknown.


"You have two options." Alex began, breaking the silence. "You can choose to remain dead and I will not hesitate to send you on your way to the Afterlife."


"Or you can choose to become my Knight, a Forever Knight. You will do my bidding and I will ensure you never have to go against your morals… if you have any." 


I wish to bring back my Patron. Can you help me do that?


Alex shook his head. "I can't. I'm sorry."


Silence followed until Azazel spoke up, his tone reminiscent.


I can still remember when I was chosen to join the Guild. I was just a rat, a boy abandoned by his home and left to scavenge all by himself.
