Artifact-Devouring Player follows Jinhyuk, a man who regressed in time and gained the ability to grow stronger by consuming artifacts. In a world where power comes from mastering rare and magical items, Jinhyuk’s unique method sets him apart from other players. With his knowledge of the future and his artifact-eating ability, Jinhyuk quickly rises through the ranks. However, his growing strength also attracts the attention of powerful enemies and hidden threats.
Chapter 11 showed Jinhyuk acquiring a powerful artifact after a dangerous confrontation, boosting his strength significantly. Chapter 12 is expected to reveal the consequences of this newfound power, with Jinhyuk facing both external threats and the internal toll of his growing abilities.
Plot of Artifact-Devouring Player

Jinhyuk’s life changed when he regressed to a time before the rise of powerful artifacts and dungeons. Armed with knowledge of the future and his artifact-eating ability, he decides to climb the ranks of the player hierarchy using an unconventional strategy—consuming artifacts directly to absorb their power.
As Jinhyuk grows stronger, he begins attracting the attention of influential guilds and dangerous enemies. Some seek to recruit him, while others see him as a threat to their dominance. Despite the dangers, Jinhyuk remains focused on his goal—to become the strongest player and uncover the truth behind the artifact system.
Chapter 11 featured Jinhyuk’s clever use of his artifact-eating ability to overcome a powerful enemy, securing a rare artifact in the process. Chapter 12 will likely go into the hidden powers of this artifact while introducing new enemies determined to stop Jinhyuk’s rise.
