When Aeris Vael touches the dying, he sees contracts written by regret. Each completed contract grants him fragments of memory, skill, and emotion from the dead. As underground markets trade souls and corrupted inheritors hunt power, Aeris must decide: Will he become humanity’s bridge between life and death — or the fracture that destroys both? Death does not always end a life. Some people die with promises unfulfilled, justice denied, or love unfinished. These regrets become contracts invisible to the living except to Aeris Vael. By completing the wishes of the dead, Aeris inherits fragments of their lives: combat instincts, hidden memories, emotional scars, and forbidden knowledge. But power comes with a cost. Each inheritance chips away at his identity. While soul markets sell the dead, rival inheritors harvest ghosts for strength, and ancient forces watch from beyond the veil, Aeris is forced into a role he never wanted. The Echo Contractor has awakened. And death is no longer silent.

A boy is discovered near the ruins of a forgotten village, his body broken beyond repair and his past erased. His meridians are shattered, leaving him incapable of orthodox cultivation. Three recluses take him in—not out of compassion, but because he survives. They do not heal him. They make him useful. Under their guidance, he learns disciplines rejected by proper sects: deception and assassination that value restraint over pride, brutal close-quarters combat stripped of form, and arrays and concoctions built from failure rather than balance. His damaged body responds to something unnatural—thin threads that react to breath and intent, reshaping into a weapon as flexible as it is merciless. The world he steps into is ruled by efficiency: sects, hierarchies, and doctrines that discard what cannot be perfected. He refuses leadership and rejects salvation. Instead, he walks an unorthodox path that leaves scars rather than legends. As enemies tied to a buried past resurface and his masters’ unfinished conflicts close in, he becomes a presence the world neither welcomes nor can ignore—a necessary evil that destabilizes power simply by existing outside its rules. This is not a tale of righteousness or triumph. It is the story of an inefficient path, and the price of reaching the pinnacle without ever belonging to it.

All he ever wished for was to live peacefully with his family — but he lost everything: his family, his home. He was betrayed. His eyes were gouged out, his arm shattered, and he was thrown into the forest to die. Yet he did not refuse death out of fear. He embraced it. But even death did not want him. His purpose and his vengeance would not let him rest. They did not force him merely to survive — they forced him to become stronger. In place of surrender, the darkness inside him awakened. Every wound, every drop of blood made him more powerful than he was the day before. “If the world rejects me… I will burn it all down.” Now, Noa’s goal is no longer just revenge. He seeks to forge a new kind of power, an entirely new strength… But all power comes at a price: he is losing himself, piece by piece. Where will he go from here? Will he set the world ablaze… or will he show mercy? “There is a system. It shows everything he becomes. It gives him nothing.” discord: https://discord.gg/QDHbRUY7e

ARCADE — A Five Part Epic Rayana “Ray” Ebony learned young that people are easy to control when they believe you understand them. Blamed for her mother’s death and raised in violence, she grows into someone observant, charming, and dangerously detached. Loyalty comes easily to her. Empathy does not. Her older brother, Zane Album, wants to protect her. He always has. He just never acts in time. As the world fractures into wars shaped by miracles and godlike power, the siblings are pulled onto opposite paths. Ray gathers a found family while descending into something feared and almost mythical. Zane trains among heroes, haunted by the cost of every moment he hesitated. Their journeys spiral toward an inevitable collision where Zane will finally be forced to act decisively… against the sister he failed to save. Arcade is a story about control and hesitation, love twisted by trauma, and what it costs to do the right thing too late. Five parts. Two siblings. One world changed by choices that cannot be undone.

Sun Qian was born with the Supreme Emperor Bone— the destiny meant to rule a high martial world. Then, on day one, the Chosen One ripped it out of his body. Betrayed. Crippled. Abandoned. A top-tier family’s heir reduced to a disposable villain. And as if fate wasn’t mocking him enough, the drunk campus goddess—the heroine destined for the protagonist— collapsed right in front of him. Her invincible Dragon King bodyguard? Gone. Before Sun Qian could even laugh at the absurdity— Ding! Villain Simulator Activated. By spending Villain Points, he could simulate alternate villain lives, steal future opportunities, and plunder destinies that never belonged to him. In one simulation, he steals the Chosen One’s woman and becomes a nightmare feared throughout the Demon Capital. In another, he crushes the so-called “Dragon-Hero,” robs every legendary inheritance, and leaves the protagonist with nothing but despair. “You took my Emperor Bone. You stole my fate. Now I’ll take everything you have.” When Sun Qian returns to reality, the Chosen One will finally understand— Villains don’t lose. They rewrite destiny. #SpirityAwards2026 #Werewolf

But when the dust settled, the lotus vanished, awaiting to be inherited by the destined one. Adam dreamed of escaping poverty, yearning for a life of riches and comfort.

They called me the Scourge of the Seven Realms. The Black Emperor. The man who'd conquered half the world before his thirtieth birthday. None of those titles mattered now, as I lay dying on the blood-soaked marble of my throne room. "Any last words, Damien?" High Priestess Celeste stood over me, her blade—my own sword, stolen during the battle—still dripping with my blood. Behind her, the leaders of the rebellion watched with hungry eyes, eager to see the tyrant fall. I wanted to laugh. After everything I'd done, all the kingdoms I'd conquered, all the battles I'd won, I was being killed by the woman I'd once loved. The woman I'd trusted above all others. "You won't win," I managed, blood bubbling from my lips. "The demons... they'll come regardless. You've doomed everyone." "Better the demons than you," she spat. The irony was bitter. I'd conquered the world to unite it, to prepare for the demonic invasion my visions had shown me. But fear and propaganda had turned me into a monster in their eyes. They couldn't see that everything I'd done was to save them. "So be it," I whispered. "May you live long enough to see your mistake." Celeste raised the blade for the final strike. "Goodbye, Damien." The sword fell. Darkness swallowed me. And then...

In his past life, he died a hero. Reborn as Kai, he was gifted a golden future—until age eight stripped him of everything. Parents vanished. Bloodline broken. Left to rot in the mud while his fiancée ascended to the stars. For seven years, he was invisible. But when he finally touched the Affinity Prism, the Light didn't reject him. The Darkness claimed him. "Why struggle to chase the Heavens when you can simply devour them?" Armed with a forbidden power, guided by a mysterious fox, and commanding the legion of 'Crimson-Void Calamity', Kai rises from the shadows. He will not just rejoin the elite. He will drag them into his domain. The Sovereign has awakened.

Solomon awakens on cold stone in a life that is not his own. A minor knight in the Riverlands, he inherits a ruined keep, a starving people, and the aftermath of a war that took his father and brothers on the shores of Seagard. In a land where mercy is mistaken for weakness and survival is never free, Solomon must learn what kind of lord can endure when hunger, steel, and memory press in from all sides.

In a world where karma is real, Judgment is power. Kairav awakens the Judgment Protocol—a system that doesn’t reward strength… it demands consequence. Inside the Trial Gate, fear becomes evidence, and Karma Eaters can taste it. If Kairav loses control, he won’t just die… he’ll become the monster he hunts.

Listen to me closely. Never, and I mean NEVER, leave a hate comment on a game forum right before you die. My name used to be... well, it doesn't matter. I was a 34-year-old salaryman who died in the stupidest way possible. How? I got slapped to death for grabbing a high school girl’s "assets". Wait, hold on! Don't look at me like that! It wasn't my fault, okay? My hand just moved on its own! It was just a tiny, split-second intrusive thought! Come on, you guys reading this—don't act like saints. You’ve had those dark urges too, right? You’ve wanted to grab something forbidden at least once in your life, right?! RIGHT?! Anyway, she slapped me. So hard my soul literally ejected from my body. I thought that was the punishment. I was wrong. When I opened my eyes, I was in [Legends of Valtheris]. Yes, that trash game. The one with the cliché plot where the world ends because some teenage students get their hearts broken. And the worst part? I didn't become the Hero. I didn't become the Villain. I became Revan von Alstaire. The background character. The loser. The guy I literally insulted online five minutes before I died. I called him a "Simp" and laughed at his "Tiny D*ck." Fate is truly a comedian. Now, I’m destined to be the bullied lackey of the future Villainess, Sylvia von Vespera. The game script says I should lick her boots, accept her abuse, and die with her like a loyal dog. Screw that. Remember my last comment? "Revan is such a loser! Tiny dck! If I were you, instead of bowing down, I would squeeze her boobs and own her completely! Garbage character!" Well, it seems God took that personally. Fine. You want a show? I’ll give you a show. I won’t be a simp. I won’t filter my words anymore. I’ll let my intrusive thoughts win. I’ll turn this trash plot upside down—even if I have to slap every "Genius" in this academy to do it.

Ren Valerius is the perfect student—quiet, thick-glassed, top of his class, and slinging pizzas part-time. Harmless. Innocent. Wouldn't hurt a fly. But when night falls, the glasses come off. In the city's forgotten shadows, where the powerful evade justice, Ren becomes the executioner. Guided by a mysterious black diary that records every unforgiven sin, he delivers karma in blood. They call him a monster. A psycho. Ren knows better: he's merely the consequence they created. How long can the mask hold when the police close in and buried secrets rise? In a world teeming with real monsters, sometimes justice needs a 'Good Psycho' to tip the scales.

A child is born during war, not as a weapon, but as a consequence. Hunted bloodlines. Silent shadows. A world that survives by pretending not to notice what it fears. Nara Yukihiko is raised in Konoha beneath an ordinary name and an unremarkable life. Few know that beneath the calm lies Ice Release so natural it feels like breathing — power inherited from a clan taught to believe their blood was a curse. As the ninja world moves toward familiar tragedies, Yukihiko grows not by ambition, but by restraint. Every kindness protects him. Every sorrow threatens something far larger than a single village. This is not the story of a hero who changes the world. It is the story of a world that survives because one child does not break. The story will start off slow. Wanted to create an in-depth background for the main character. Nara Yukihiko does not show until chapter 47. Be patient because it is worth the wait. The mixed bloodline between Nara and Yuki will make the story very interesting. The Main charater grows up as a Nara clan member to survive as a Yuki clan member.

Before life, there was void. Before death, there was life. And from their ruin—Change. The Saga of Change is a dark, epic progression fantasy spanning four novels—Change, Loss, Conquest, and Stygian—set in a world where gods slumber and mortals pay the price of their dreams. The story begins with Corvus Ashford, a young vice-captain born to mayhem in a world without heroes. He learns that oaths deceive, mercy is weakness, and survival itself is a form of rebellion. And so he rebels—unflinching, drenched in scarlet, but never smiling. Elsewhere, two sisters flee a brutal land toward a promised sanctuary that may not exist. When their paths collide, mercy and cruelty blur into a single truth: to endure is to change—and survival demands the sacrifice of everything that once made them human.

Couther Clyne, a wizard whose unique magic manipulates time, is sick and tired of being on an endless, seemingly fruitless crusade for the Goddess of Time for the last 1,000 years. She granted him immense power in exchange for his soul—and now he’s seeking another way out of their pact. While tromping across the mystical continent of Tresvant, he’s joined by an unlikely entourage: vengeful half-elf archer Imbol, righteous half-demon swordsman Bertio, new apprentice Joycie, and cult leader-turned-child Ocfort. Along the way, they discover dark forces are threatening multiple kingdoms, and Couther must be taught to do what’s most against his nature: love.

Total freedom. Enough wealth to buy anything. Enough strength to take anyone. Enough influence to do whatever he wants—fight when he craves it, fuck when he desires it, relax when he chooses it. Morality? Negotiable. Limits? None. Consequences? He'll handle them. --- Hogwarts isn't a school. It's a hunting ground. Magic isn't a gift. It's a tool. And this world? It's just the first of many. --- **WARNING: MATURE CONTENT** This story contains dark themes, morally grey protagonist, violence, sexual content, and a ruthlessly pragmatic MC who will kill if necessary.

Ethan Drake—eleven years old in body, twenty-two in mind—stared at the tawny bird perched outside his bedroom window. In its beak: a letter sealed with wax and marked with a crest he'd never seen before. He opened the window. The owl dropped the parchment into his hands and waited, golden eyes unblinking. Ethan unfolded the letter, and his world changed forever. "Dear Mr. Drake, We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry..." Magic. Real magic. A slow smile spread across his face. This is going to be fun.

It's been over 300 years since every human, witch, wizard, hag, vampire, centaur, dwarf, and every other supernatural race residing on Earth suddenly found themselves on Floor Zero of the Tower. The population now sits just under 20 million, a sharp contrast to the original 8.2 billion. As a result, anyone under the age of sixteen is required to attend the Academy of Beginnings, a place designed to prepare them for the climb and uncover the mysteries of the Tower—why the System brought them here, and what lies at its peak. But with the highest known completed Floor being Floor 34… they still have a long way to go. Determined to honor his father and mother’s deaths and become the first human to reach the top of the Tower. Deacon Surtr Hayes stands on the cusp of graduating from the Academy of Beginnings, ready to claim his Tier 1 Class and ascend the Tower with his closest friends by his side. At least, that’s what should have happened. Waking up hours before receiving his first Class and finding out that not only was his father alive, but that he wasn’t even human, derailed everything Deacon thought he knew about his future and left him with many questions, the most prevalent being, “What the hell is a Jötunn?” Schedule: 3x a week (Sun, Tues, Thurs) What to expect: [+] Weak to Strong MC [+] Multiple Weapons & Magics [+] Various Mythologies [+] Tower [+] Grimdark [+] Antihero MC [+] Jötunn
