Alexey Kovtunov

Alexey Kovtunov was born in April 1992. He had a regular childhood and went to a regular school, after which he decided to study medicine. Still, having graduated from medical college, he wasn’t in a hurry to join the profession.

In 2014, he got a job during the Sochi Olympics as a driver with the US Olympic Committee, after which he found a gig working as industrial abseiler. Only after that did he join an emergency aid team in his capacity as paramedic.

It was an interesting job which definitely left its stamp on Alexey’s writing. In medicine, black humor is often the only thing that can ensure one’s sanity...

His hobbies, too, have influenced his work as a writer: fishing, books, technologies, computer games... all of this eventually resulting in his love for LitRPG.

But just as he started trying his hand at writing, the pandemic struck. Emergency teams toiled overtime, making Alexey way too busy with his medical work. Still, as soon as the situation improved, he got busy creating his own worlds... and he hasn’t been able to give it up since.

I was the most powerful healer in my world — the best, having devoted my entire life to mastering the art of healing. And yet, for whatever reason, my brother feared that I sought to claim his throne, and he marshaled his forces against me.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter, all the same I’d been planning on trying out a certain ritual and now...

I’m in another world altogether!? And this body I’m inhabiting, well, it’s not mine, but some young guy’s! And what’s it mean that in this world the gift of the healer is downright pathetic?

Apparently, they simply don’t know how to handle power.

Well, I’ll show them...

People awake in a strange place with no idea of who or where they are. There is only a bizarre message carved into a metal obelisk and the growing awareness that every single living creature in this new world is a deadly threat. Even a seemingly cute and fluffy bunny has a taste for human flesh…

What are they to do? How will they survive? How do they stay sane?

The System is here! Most of the population of the planet were suddenly turned into zombies, while the rest acquired new abilities. Abilities that let them run from the zombies, save themselves, hide, and try to survive. But it only takes one bite that almost always means death.

Our hero was standing in line when the apocalypse came. He was lucky at first to be caught in a crowd when the zombies tried to bite him on the leg. Really lucky, because those trials unlocked new abilities for him. He got to be one of the first to choose his character class. He had to do it quickly, before someone else got the best one…

Considering he was introverted, maybe even a little antisocial, the choice was easy. Master of Shadows? Nope, already taken. Okay, Master of Darkness! Also taken.

Okay, Ghost class also works. And it is a gold class, even though the bonuses you get are a little… questionable.

They were just a bunch of ordinary demonologists trying to summon an ordinary demon…but at the moment of summoning, something went wrong. Still, demon or demonologist – what was the difference to them, anyway? Either way, they were going to have fun.

My name is Konstantin and I am no ordinary demonologist. Most people fear demons, but in my case, it’s the demons who fear me…
