What happens when you realize that your entire life was fake, and that you aren’t really the person you always believed yourself to be? Now you’re stuck in a mysterious and dangerous world where everyone wants you dead. The only things you have are a terrifying reputation and your intelligence. Allen wakes up in the body of a fearsome and ruthless crown prince in another world. He is considered extremely strong and naturally has countless enemies who want him dead. But soon he realizes three things: First that due to a previous injury, he cannot use his powers properly. Second that his transmigration in this world was not a coincidence, it was pre planned and that he is nothing more than a pawn in the mastermind's grand plan. Third that even though his family rules the entire continent, the outside world is much more vast and he is just a small fish in the big ocean. He must identify and outsmart those hiding in the shadows, uncover forgotten secrets regarding his own past life, navigate through dangerous politics against fellow schemers, explore and conquer this cruel and mysterious world, while also recovering the original body’s strength. Events overview: Ch 1-12: Identifying hidden enemies and survival Ch 13-18: Huge lore drops, world building and plot twists (this is where the entire story changes imo) Ch 19-28: High stakes War Ch 29-32: More lore drops and reveals about the outside world and power system. Ch 33-49: Enemy continent's royal family infiltration with a fake identity, schemes, manipulation, politics, and rise from nothing (Slave to king, actually logical and not at all easy) Ch 50-75: Battle of wits with the cunning major antagonist of the second arc, multiple near death experiences, layered schemes and final high stakes war Ch 75-83: Answers to all the mysteries, lore drops, and massive reveals Ch 84-Current: Journey through a sea having consciousness (Eldritch Horror) A few points: The first major arc has been finished (ch 28) and has a pretty satisfactory climax imo. The second major arc has also been finished (ch 29-75) and I'll publish the remaining chapters soon. Trust me, there are insane reveals and shift of tides, and the climax is absolute cinema The MC is not naive, he is intelligent, manipulative and ruthless, but not actually evil. This isn't all about power flex; there are multiple intelligent characters, and the MC is forced to use his brain in various situations. Side characters are not there just for the sake of it; most side characters are complex and get proper development before the major arc ends (ch 28). The villain has a proper backstory and goal, and isn't just there to be a stepping stone for the MC. I have added quite some lore drops and emotional scenes after chapter 10. The intro and first 5 chapters may feel a bit generic, but it gets better and better from the 6th chapter onwards. One warning though, this is a dark and cruel world, and there are a lot of violent and terrifying scenes and body horror in this novel. Initial writing may be a bit weak, but I've fixed most of the previous issues in the current chapters The second major arc (Ch 29 onwards) is especially for those who don't want the MC to start at the top and dominate every fight with pure strength. As in that arc the MC leaves his home continent and starts from nothing (no resources, loyal people, identity, nothing). He conquers the other continent using his brain, through layered schemes and manipulation. But it still has fights and aura moments as the MC hates getting looked down upon. This is not AI slop, the whole story and dialogues have been written by me The MC is OP, but he also struggles in some fights (I haven't given him any plot armor, and the fights feel logical), and also gets outsmarted by others sometimes, there are more intelligent characters than him. The MC is not one of those who will spare his enemies whatsoever. Lmk your feedback

Apologies have also begun rewriting this novel as well. From the moment he drew breath, Ryojin Kurohane was marked by tragedy. Sold by his own father to the ruthless Abyssal Clan, betrayed by the only friend he ever trusted, and cast into the dreaded Nexus Abyss by the Celestial Order—left to rot in a void where time and light do not exist. But fate had other plans. In the heart of nothingness, he made a pact with an ancient and forgotten force—the Abyssal Dragon. Reborn in darkness, Ryojin escapes the abyss not as a man, but as something far more powerful... and far more dangerous. Now, he returns to the world that tried to erase him, burning with vengeance. But every power has a cost. And the darkness he commands is spreading—through his body, his soul, and his mind. Is he the harbinger of justice? Or the beginning of the end? A story of revenge, power, and the curse that comes with both—step into the world of Ryojin Kurohane, where redemption is a myth, and survival means becoming the very thing you once feared.

I am currently rewriting this story so go and check out my other novel- Ryojin Kurohane. living in a realm where power dictates worth, Kairos Wilder is nothing more than a shadow—a demi-demon with mortal blood tainting his veins, he has spent his life watching the strong trample the weak. But Kairos is no ordinary outcast. Beneath his unassuming exterior lies a razor-sharp mind, a strategist who sees the cracks in the foundation of the demon realm’s brutal hierarchy. For years, he has studied the rulers of the underworld, their strengths, their flaws, their greed. The oppressive regime that enslaves demi-demons and the powerless is built on arrogance—and arrogance breeds vulnerability. Kairos knows that to change the world, he must first play its cruel game. Through manipulation, deception, and calculated ruthlessness, he begins his ascent. He weaves his way into the ranks of power, turning enemies into pawns and allies into weapons. But as his revolution inches closer to reality, the darkness within him grows. Every betrayal, every sacrifice, every drop of blood spilled in the name of change pushes him further from the man he once was. How far is he willing to go to break the chains of oppression? And when the dust settles, will his rebellion bring justice—or simply replace one tyrant with another? A tale of power, deception, and the high price of ambition—step into the world of Kairos Wilder, where the line between hero and monster is razor-thin.

From the King of Earth and Metal, the Tyrant who controls flames and magma, to the Supreme King of the Supreme, Great, and Greatest Kingdom, or the Dragon of the World, the Dragon of Thousand Faces and Thousand Aspects... These titles are just embellishments on the crown of power of this red dragon. The world has changed because of him. Cultural thoughts and ideologies are his fluttering flags; Mage towers and floating cities are his war fortresses; Countless races and strange creatures are his soldiers; and countless dragons are his commanders; This is a civilization established by a dragon, a dragon kingdom that commands the entire multiverse.

Nille is the great-grandson of Amparo Pilar Fajardo and Takeshi Tsukuyomi, born from a rare union of Filipino and Japanese lineage that carries remnants of ancient, supernatural inheritance. Within his blood lies the echo of ancestral spirits and the dormant legacy tied to Tsukuyomi, the moon god, a force that has long since faded from the world yet continues to persist within his existence. He is not an ordinary human, but a convergence of forgotten powers shaped by two distant mythological roots. These inheritances do not manifest freely, they awaken gradually through conflict, pressure, and survival, drawing attention from forces that recognize what he may become. In a world where myth and reality still bleed into one another, Nille stands at the threshold of something far greater than himself. His journey is not only survival, but the slow awakening of a lineage that refuses to disappear.

"Special Admission, Rank 1." That was the title on the golden invitation I threw into the trash three months ago. Back then, I was the Crime Lord of Oakhaven. I had money, territory, and an ego that touched the sky. Why would a King lower himself to attend a school? I was arrogant. I was foolish. And I paid the price. It took less than an hour for a single knight to turn my criminal empire into a graveyard. He didn't just defeat me; he ignored me. I was an ant beneath the boot of a god. Broken and desperate, I used my last asset: a golden letter granting me entry to Zenith Imperial Academy as "Special Admission Rank 1." It’s a lie. I’m not a prodigy. I’m a fraud with no foundation, surrounded by the strongest heirs in the Empire who want to see me bleed. I can’t cast their spells. I can’t hold their weapons. But I can steal their lives. My Authority is [Usurper]. While they study theory, I steal reflexes. While they practice honor, I copy trauma. I am not here to learn. I am here to hunt. My targets are the "Four Calamities"—four women who hold powers strong enough to rewrite reality. They think I’m their peer. They don’t know I’m the parasite waiting to hollow them out. I’m going to make them mine. Discord: https://discord.gg/FK9GfrSjtb

Orion was a successful doctor who had everything taken from him by betrayal. On the night he planned to propose, he jumped from a rooftop to end his pain. Instead of dying, his soul entered a strange void and witnessed a massive explosion between light and darkness. When he opened his eyes again, he was reborn as a baby in a new world. In this world, every child gets one magical card at age 10 that decides their power and place in life. Strong cards mean a good life. No card means you are called a “paper person”—weak, poor, and looked down on. Orion is now the son of paper people. He has no special card waiting for him, no destiny as a hero. But he remembers his old life and his skills as a doctor. With only his knowledge, his pain, and his will to survive, he must find a way to live—and maybe protect the new family that loves him—in a world where power comes from a single card.

What do you do when you're out at sea without a ship? Allen: “Steal one.” What do you do when there's no crew on board? Allen: “Dig them from others.” What do you do when you have people but no supplies? Allen: “Rob the Marines.” Treasure? Famous swords? Devil Fruits? Beautiful women? Allen: “Brothers, look! That transport ship up ahead was practically delivered from the heavens—it has everything we need!” Transmigrated into the world of One Piece with the monstrous combat talent and Hanma bloodline from the Baki universe, Allen refuses to play by anyone’s rules. He starts with nothing but his two fists and an unyielding will. In the East Blue, where the weak are prey and dreams are crushed daily, Allen begins his legend by toppling tyrants, poaching elite talents, and building his crew through sheer force and charisma. He steals the Black Cat Pirates’ ship and crew. He recruits the genius chef Sanji before the Straw Hat can. He shatters Arlong’s reign to claim Nami and her village’s future. With a black captain’s coat billowing like a demon’s shadow and a savage lion-skull Jolly Roger flying high, Allen declares war on the entire sea. “I don’t chase the One Piece for glory. I just want the biggest, most dazzling stage where my strength can bloom without limits.” Freedom. Power. Conquest. He will take them all—by stealing ships, stealing people, and stealing destiny itself. My name is Allen. I advocate for absolute freedom. And I will become the most willful, reckless, and unstoppable pirate this world has ever seen. The Demon Lion has set sail.

After watching Earth burn, Veneri, an immortal cursed with endless life, finally dies and wakes up in a world even more cruel than the one that killed him. Now reborn as Vastarael Richinaria, a prince of a famous dynasty, he’s thrust into the heart of Spheraphase, a realm broken by eternal wars, Epoch Cycles and the monstrous Krepsunas and gods.

Caught between ancient legacies, political warfare and a fate he's not sure he wants, Vastarael must decide: Will he rule with apathy... or become the destroyer of gods?

A Dark Fantasy Saga of Betrayed Gods, Cursed Bloodlines, and the Children Who Would Rewrite Fate. From the Pen of Archivist Maren of Hollowmere, Keeper of the Fractured Record. Before the Silence, there was a Song. The world hummed with magic. Death was not an ending, but a gentle transition guided by immortal beings called the Grim, who shepherded souls through the Veil like gardeners tending a beloved garden. Then the Menancers came. Ten of the most powerful mages in history, drunk on ambition and terrified of oblivion, forged a weapon that could bind a Grim to flesh. They ambushed Elian a gentle, starlit shepherd who loved the world more than his own existence and tried to force the secrets of immortality from him. They broke him. But they could not control what they unleashed. Elian's dying act was not to destroy his tormentors. It was to wound the world itself—bleeding its magic dry so that no one could ever wield enough power to unmake creation. The Age of Radiance ended in a single, sorrowful sigh. Now the moon burns violet. Monsters crawl from dungeons that breathe like living things. And children are being born with strange, luminous eyes violet, silver, amber, and rarer colors still. The mages, desperate to hide their guilt, call these children Curselings. Grim-Spawn. Enemies of humanity. The world hunts them. Liora, a girl with storm-colored eyes, escapes a mage's prison to save her friends—and pays the ultimate price. Cael, a boy with one gold eye and one silver, builds a sanctuary from the ruins of a forgotten castle and vows vengeance. Veyne, a child raised in darkness by ghosts, speaks to the dead and chooses to become something more than human. They are not cursed. They are the world's only chance to heal a wound that has festered for centuries. But the mages will burn the world before they admit the truth. "Battle of the Grim" is a sprawling dark fantasy of sacrifice and survival, where the line between hero and villain is drawn in the blood of innocents and the key to salvation has been branded as the enemy.

They called the Abyss a place where even gods disappeared. Across kingdoms and ruined lands, hunters chase whispers of an unknown existence tied to vanishings, distortions, and something darker than death itself.

Why people feel something wrong before he even speaks. And he does not know the most terrifying truth of all— The being the world fears may already be walking among them. As strange forces begin noticing his existence, reality itself starts reacting in ways it cannot explain. Hunters close in. Ancient powers awaken. And somewhere beyond the edges of the known world, something waits for him to remember. But the human body he walks in is only a vessel. And if what sleeps inside it fully awakens— the world may not survive it. Nihilfire Reborn: God on a Vessel — A dark atmospheric fantasy about identity, restrained destruction, and a presence the world was never meant to contain.

In Neptunia, one of the Seven Worlds, darkness rises every five hundred years. When magical corruption reaches its peak, the Demon King is reborn to bring ruin upon the land. To counter this cycle, Uriel the Archangel, guardian of Neptunia, blesses a newborn with the Light — creating the Chosen Hero destined to defeat the Demon King. But this time, destiny collapses. One of Uriel’s valkyries forges a forbidden relic capable of peering twenty years into the future. When Uriel gazes into the vision, she sees a nightmare: Neptunia has fallen. The Demon King reigns. The Hero is dead. The cause is a single curse — the White Witch has stripped the Hero of most of her power, dooming her in the final battle. Uriel, known even among archangels as the greatest strategist, realizes the future can still be rewritten. Not with armies. Not with divine miracles. But with one ordinary soul. To preserve the balance between worlds, Uriel summons a completely average human from a distant realm — Earth. This person is no warrior, no mage, no chosen one. Yet their mission is the most crucial of all: prevent the White Witch from cursing the Hero, and save an entire world from destruction. Wolfheart is an isekai story that proves one thing: even the most ordinary soul can change the fate of a world.

In a world where the sky is torn between the light of Elysion and the darkness of Tartarus, an eternal war threatens to shatter the balance of nature. Azraelis, the Dark Sovereign enthroned upon bone and obsidian, has risen with a single goal: to eradicate humanity, which he sees as weak, hypocritical, and deserving of subjugation. Aided by his three lethal generals—Nekron with his breath-stealing sword, Zephiron with his twin bloodthirsty blades, and Belial with his soul-crushing hammer—he unleashes the armies of Tartarus to turn the world into an ocean of suffering. But behind the walls of Elysion, humanity's last city, hope still remains. Ken, a mysterious assassin from Viman'Pura, emerges from the shadows—a living weapon who is cold, efficient, and harbors a great secret: human blood flows in his veins. With the ability to manipulate mist and lightning, he becomes the final barrier between Tartarus and the extinction of mankind. Yet, every step he takes is shadowed by pain and sacrifice, and a longing for a home that is lost to him. On the other side, two former Tartarus generals—Danteus and Hector—have chosen the path of betrayal to atone for the sins of their past. Danteus, with his human-like face and hellforged power, finds peace beside Liora, a tomboyish mage who teaches him the meaning of acceptance. Meanwhile, his brother Hector prefers chicken noodles and stray cats to violence—until he is forced to take up arms once more to protect his new home. Together with King Gaius, who leads with a rusted sword and the courage of the common people, they must fight not only for survival, but to prove that even from the deepest darkness, the light of redemption can still shine.

Welcome to a world where survival demands dying once first. For a thousand years, humanity has lived under the constant threat of the Calamities monsters born from ether, a mysterious energy that appeared during a long-forgotten cataclysm. To avoid a lethal overload, every human must consume a daily serum, tightly controlled by the Order. Without it, death is inevitable. At sixteen, everyone must face the Awakening, a spiritual trial from which only 30% emerge alive. Those who survive gain a Resonance, a unique power, and become Initiates the last line of defense against the Calamities. Sirius is a cynical young hitman from the slums of Astoria. He seeks neither glory nor power, only a quiet life alongside his twin sister Iris and their friend Lucy. Everything changes when an embargo on the serum strikes the city, plunging it into chaos. As the death toll rises, Sirius comes to realize that the true monsters are not always the ones being named. In the shadows, a sinister conspiracy unfolds: parasites implanted in the brains of Initiates distort their senses and emotions, turning the survivors of the Awakening into obedient instruments, unable to distinguish truth from illusion. Cornered, Sirius, Iris, and Lucy are left with only one choice: face the Awakening themselves and inherit powers as unpredictable as they are dangerous. Saving everyone is not their priority. The Order, the manipulated Initiates, and the Calamities are merely obstacles to bypass or opportunities to exploit as long as it keeps them alive. But in a world where reality itself can be falsified, how far can one go without becoming the very thing they fight? Discord: https://discord.gg/spCNaXxape
