Gluten-Free Godhood

Summary:

Waking up in the unforgiving world of Lord of the Mysteries is a certified death sentence.

But waking up in a techno-mystical, totalitarian dystopia that you literally shitposted into existence during a late-night Discord chat? That is a cruel, cosmic joke.

And... I AM THAT VERY AUTHOR AND PERSON WHO GOT TRANSMIGRATED!!!

Meet Gluten. In his past life, he was a cynical university student from Ukraine who spent his free time crafting absurd, breakfast-themed custom pathways while drinking with his friends.

I am Alov... Erm... Gluten now!

On my very first day, I discovered a strange note hidden in my nightstand. The glowing white text practically burned itself into my retinas:

“The revolution is on its way, but will you accept it?! If you wish to join our righteous cause, accept our modest gift... If you choose to refuse, you must tear this paper to shreds.”

Where the hell did the original Gluten even get a thing like this?!

Sequence 9: Gleaner

Endurance Enhancement — unnatural tolerance for grueling labor, capable of walking, digging, and enduring physical stress for significantly longer than mundane people who lack a Beyonder lineage.

Survival Intuition — ..?

Gleaning Talent — Gleaners master all forms of basic preservation, botanical categorization, and resource extraction

Ironclad Digestion & Metabolic Efficiency — Initially, those who drink the Gleaner potion will experience a complete overhaul of their gastrointestinal tract. A Gleaner can extract maximum nutritional value from almost any organic substance—including tree bark, raw grains, and stale hardtack—without suffering from malnutrition or gastric distress. Their body becomes a highly efficient engine, allowing them to survive on a single bowl of plain oats for days while maintaining peak physical output.

Spirituality — A Gleaner's Spirituality is enhanced upon drinking this potion, though it is anchored heavily toward the physical world and the domain of the earth rather than the illusory depths of the spirit world.

Nutrient Vision —This is a localized variant of Spirit Vision. By activating it, a Gleaner can see the "Vitality Radiance" of organic matter. They can deduce the health, stamina, and life expectancy of a person by looking at the density of their physical aura. They can instantly spot hidden root systems, water sources, or buried seeds beneath the soil.
