Shadows of Sakurabara

What starts as a simple mercenary contract ends in a nightmare of flesh and roses. The Outcasts of Fate are a dysfunctional mercenary crew who would sooner stab each other than save the world. But when a cowardly lord pays them to investigate a quiet village, they stumble into an apocalyptic conspiracy. The town hasn’t just gone dark, it has been swallowed by unnatural thickets of flesh and thorns, its people trapped in a twisted, demonic ecstasy. Worse, their interference draws the eye of a cosmic entity with a dark obsession for the crew’s succubus priestess. Barely escaping the crew is thrust into a brutal, continent-spanning race against time. Their journey will drag them from the freezing North, where cultists shatter human souls to tear open the fabric of dimensions, to the blood-stained high seas in a peculiar bussines with ruthless pirates and a terrifying half-dragon. All paths lead to the bustling coral port of Manuna Lewa. Here, they must forge a desperate alliance with a high priestess and survive grueling training to face the ultimate threat. The blood-red moon, Rubus, is rising, bringing a global demonic invasion with it. It’s a gritty, heavy-action dark fantasy where survival demands more than just a sharp blade. The Outcasts of Fate are the only ones standing between humanity and an ancient entity’s avatar, assuming they don’t slaughter each other first. Step aboard. The truth won’t set you free, it will change you forever. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Shadows of Sakurabara — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
