revenge

On the day of my execution, my father laughed, my clan cheered, and my blood stained the earth. But death was just the beginning. I was Himiko Higuruma, the betrayed heir of a forgotten age. Now, I am a nightmare of cracked porcelain and black shards. I am no longer human, but I am still a Queen—and my court is built from the corpses of those who wronged me. A Curse does not age; it only evolves. What began as a massacre in the ancient forests of the Heian Era is merely the first stitch in a tapestry of blood. My shadow stretches across the centuries, waiting for the world to turn, waiting for my name to be whispered once more in a modern age that thinks it is safe. From the ancient past to a fractured future, my judgment is eternal. The porcelain throne has waited eight centuries. It is time for the world to find it wanting.

Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

“Why do humans rule the world?” “...Because their form is the closest to the gods.” On the day known as the Great Awakening, the barrier separating mortals, spirits, and gods shattered without warning. Divine influence poured into the world like rain and the world was forever changed. Aren Cross stood at the very top of that new world, one of the strongest Mystics to ever live. For that strength, he was betrayed. In his final moments, Aren attempted to evolve once more, to abandon his humanity and ascend as a god. He failed. But, instead of death, Aren awakens in his high school classroom, moments before his first bloodline awakening ceremony. This time, with knowledge of the future, he will choose the strongest Evolutions. Water and Fire are opposing elements? Why not pick both? Wings or Burrowing Traits? Let me take them all. ------------------------ Book Goals!: Castle = Mass release 5 chapters Spaceship = Mass release 10 chapters Gachapon = Mass release 15 chapters If you find the story confusing or inconsistent at some parts, feel free to add me at my Discord!: https://discord.gg/86DZcscc

"In the Somnium Sanctum, dreams are currency, and nightmares are weapons." He was a bastard prince, discarded in a mass grave at age ten. She was a forbidden saint, whose spine was carved into twenty-two cursed bones.When Soren opened his eyes in the darkness, he held in his hand the only inheritance his martyred mother left him: The Abyss Bone Tarot—a deck of forbidden cards that devour souls and rewrite fate. To survive, he poisoned his own eyes and became a "broken masterpiece" in the Sanctum—a towering den of assassins and dream-weavers where beauty is law and death is art. But behind the silk blindfold, Soren sees what others cannot: the fractures in their souls, the cracks in their destiny. The elites who enter the Sanctum's thirteen floors believe they are purchasing ecstasy.They don't realize they are walking into the web of a blind spider. He doesn't serve them. He harvests them. Every dream he weaves is a trap. Every pleasure, a funeral. Every whispered promise, a death sentence. One floor at a time. One soul at a time. From the blood-soaked Crucible on Floor 3 to the star-crowned thrones on Floor 13, Soren will climb over the corpses of kings, warlords, and gods. "Welcome to my sanctuary. Here, your deepest desire is the key to your perfect demise." Tags: #AntiHero #DarkFantasy #Manipulation #Ruthless #Magic #Revenge #HighIQ #Assassins #SoulHarvesting

Kaito Soren was the "The King of Separation" the undisputed strongest in his world, possessing the power of the Infinite Void, an ability that erased distance, shattered every bond, and separated cause from effect. No one could touch him. Until he was killed by an attack he never saw coming. When he awakened, he found himself in a nightmare world where human fears manifest into uncurable monsters. Fear of darkness, fire, hunger, silence, cockroaches… every terror births an unstoppable abomination. At the center stands Lilith Domina, the cold and enigmatic head of the Fourth Division in the Public Control Bureau. She wields the power of Control — crimson chains that bind these fear-born monsters and turn them into weapons for the organization. When Kaito meets Lilith, she shows no surprise at his otherworldly arrival. Instead, she smiles coldly and says: "You are different… and I need someone my chains cannot control." Now caught between two worlds, Kaito must face terrifying monsters, train three young hunters burdened with their own fears, and unravel the mystery behind his death. As he gets closer to Lilith, he realizes she hides a far more dangerous ability beneath her visible chains. In the brutal struggle between absolute freedom and absolute control, Kaito must decide: Will he break her chains… or will the Infinite Void consume him first?

On Earth, Kai Ren was a forgotten nobody—until a tragic death sent his soul hurtling into Eternal Realm, a brutal fantasy world where every person is bound by a Destined Bloodline that dictates their fate. But Kai awakens something that should never exist: the SSS-Class Fateweaver Harem System. He doesn’t just gain the power to change classes at will. Every time he forms an Eternal Bond with a woman of legendary bloodline—an elven prophetess, a fallen dragon empress, a sealed goddess, a demon princess—he doesn’t only evolve his own power… he rewrites destiny itself. One night with the Elven Princess triggers a World Announcement that shatters an empire’s divine protection. A union with the Goddess of Light changes the color of the sky for seven days and awakens ancient evils. Every conquest sends ripples across the entire world.

Power? Limitless. This time, the loser doesn’t just become overpowered… He becomes the reason the world itself must change.

In a world where power defines worth, people are divided into two paths—heroes and villains. Heroes are praised as saviors, risking their lives to protect society. Villains, on the other hand, are hunted, feared, and erased without mercy. Some choose their path. Some are forced into it. And some… are left with no choice at all. Victor Kane was never meant to be a villain. He was ordinary. Powerless. Invisible in a world ruled by abilities. Until the day everything changed. Betrayed by the very people he trusted—his friends, his family—Victor is cast out and branded as something he never chose to become. In a world where weakness is a death sentence, he quickly learns a cruel truth: Among villains, only the strongest survive. With nowhere left to run, Victor embraces the darkness forced upon him. But unlike others, he possesses a terrifying and mysterious ability—one that allows him to become anyone… or anything. As he descends deeper into a world of blood, power, and betrayal, Victor must decide: Will he lose himself completely and become the monster they believe him to be… Or will he rise above them all and redefine what it truly means to be a villain?

And something survived the fall — something buried in his blood that should’ve stayed asleep.
