I thought death was the end. Then I woke in a world where fate can be bought with blood. Here, interdimensional gates connect humanity to Grimmyth—a realm of cosmic horrors, ancient vestiges, and impossible power. Those chosen by it become Grimlocks, the Warlocks of Grimmyth, receiving the power to reshape their destiny. Grimlocks hunt Grimmons and protect others with the power they received. Guilds raid Grimlores and rule like empires with the riches they loot. Government explores, regulates, and stands guard against Grimmyth—the unknown frontier where horrors beyond imagination await. Crayon V. Wyatt was a poor soul who was never meant to stand among them. Betrayed, indebted, and disgraced, he was beaten and left to die — until I inherited the name and everything that came with it. Grimmyth chose me. Now I wield the power of Grimmyth as its Warlock. In a world both deadly and breathtaking, I don’t want to just survive. I intend to uncover its mysteries, challenge its frontiers, and experience everything it dares to offer. ...

Are you tired of hearing 'Ding!'? Tired of Main Characters gaining power through a blue screen, without sweat or sacrifice? 'The Essence' offers no escape. No levels. No convenient 'starter packs'.

Only his wits, his capacity for mercy, and the terrifying ambition to protect those the world deems 'vermin'. This is a kingdom-building story for the methodical. The strategist. The one who understands that real power is not about raw force, but about cultivating the 'Essence' of what makes us alive. Slow pace. Hardcore realism. Psychological depth. Welcome to a different kind of fantasy.

[Congratulations, Host! You have defeated the 777th Hero Party!] [Eternal Quest has been completed!] [Final scenario is unfolding!] “Even… if I can’t kill you… I will rid this world of your existence!“ Maximus, the hero teetering at the edge of death, yelled. In contrast, the Demon Lord just waved his hands dismissively. He had been bored out of his mind either way. Even if the hero succeeded, he would do his enemy the greatest favor. As a bright flash enveloped the Demon King, he just closed his eyes and smiled. “Time to go home.” Aiden was already planning what he would do once he got home. Getting a new console was a must, and premium snacks. Oh, and he would get his parents a condo. However, as the flash faded away, the sight that greeted him wasn’t of the Earth he remembered. The place was ruined! Monsters lurked everywhere. Buildings were crumbled and turned to dust. All buildings but one. The very same one he was standing on. “What the hell is going on here?“ [Congratulations, Host! As a reward for your excellent performance, you have inherited the Apocalypse Landlord system!] “Eh? I went from a demon lord to a property manager!?“ discord server for character arts and more: https://discord.gg/vJdu2DqnwR

In a futuristic world, humans evolved beyond anyone’s imagination. Discovering new races, facing dangers, and almost facing extinction several times over, yet, as always, they adapted—becoming lords and obtaining their Domains on distant planets. The world was filled with terrifying creatures, those deadly creatures that plagued every race, every planet. In the year 7026, like every year, a large group of eighteen-year-old teenagers finally left Earth to awaken and challenge different Domains. Among them was Neil… Injected with the awakening fluid, Neil awakened two skills only to be betrayed, kidnapped and thrown in a death zone. While others received blessings, powerful abilities and grand titles, Neil awakened with synergy so pathetic—so pitifully low that it drew laughter, scorn, and even disgust. But that wasn't the worst part. Betrayed and cornered inside the death zone, Neil had two choices: Give up… or keep suffering the extreme torment again and again. A death trap with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the creatures of nightmare. A domain with impossible difficulty, extreme monstrosities… Finally!! He became a lord! Becoming the first to conquer the highest-class domain, creating the strongest legion… Mythic Class army of Giants, Dragons, and more!!

a world where humanity fled a galactic erasure to settle on the dying planet Terra, survival is dictated by two paths: the high-tech Star Path of the ancients and the biological Bloodline Path of mythical beasts. To the elite Carter Family, Roman is nothing more than "trash"—a Level 2 Lightning Snake who barely survived a murderous training "accident" staged by his cousin, Brent. ​But the boy who crawled out of the abyss is no longer the victim they remember. ​Waking with the memories of a lost civilization and the Solstice Core—a sentient Star Path relic—Roman discovers that the "Bloodline System" is more than just social status. It is a dormant power waiting for the Seven Wielders to reclaim it. ​By merging the Core with the first of the seven primal stones, Roman awakens the Azure Dragon, granting him mastery over the destructive force of Thunder and the regenerative power of Wood. With his Azure Eye of Creation, he can now see the "static" between seconds and the life-force of the world itself. ​As the other six Wielders—begin to surface across the continents, Roman must maintain his "low-key" mask while rebuilding his foundation. The Sovereign Collective is coming to finish what they started, and the only hope for humanity lies in the hands of a boy the world dismissed as a failure.

Fifty years ago, rifts appeared in the world. These rifts spewed spirit beasts, ancient artifacts, and fragments of lost civilizations. The human race brought forth Talent Sigils and built guilds and families for survival. These families include one of the oldest awakened bloodlines, known as "The Long Clan," said to trace its lineage from the dragons of antiquity. However, rivalries also exist within great clans. His name is Long Hao, the son of a dwindling lineage family who is ridiculed for being the embarrassment of the clan. It is not impossible for people to believe that he has only mediocre talent because the clan already labels him as the failure who does not deserve the name dragon. But on the night before the awakening ceremony, there is a prohibited awakening within him. > [Eclipse System… Activating [Forbidden Talent Detected. Origin: Dragon-Eclipse Bloodline It seems that *Heaven’s Law* itself has made Long Hao wields forbidden talent, a skill feared not only by humans but also by the heavens. The day that follows, the Awakening Stone has no talent, and the world laughs at him. But Long Hao just smiled. When the first dungeon appears out of nowhere in his high school, chaos breaks out. "The trash of the Long Clan" emerges and displays power that shocks the city. He will overcome his destiny. Above the guilds. Above ancient clans. Beyond God's own command. A dragon ought to fly across the nine heavens, and he, named Long Hao, shall smash those who come to get in his way. A dragon should soar across the nine heavens— and Long Hao will shatter anyone who dares stand in his path.

One hundred years ago, portals tore open across the world, unleashing monsters that wiped out 90% of humanity. Among the survivors, only a rare few—one in a hundred—awakened unique powers, becoming the last hope of a shattered world. Kael Varyn is one of them. Orphaned and living alone, he grew up dreaming of becoming the strongest and ending the monsters for good. But awakening his own mysterious ability wasn’t just a dream—it was only the beginning. Unlike others, his power is unstable, dangerous, and unlike anything the world has seen before. Ranked the lowest in the prestigious Ascendant Academy, Kael faces skepticism, envy, and deadly trials at every turn. Yet, with cunning, training, and his growing Abyss Core, he begins to prove that even the weakest can defy fate. Friendships will be tested. Rivals will rise. And a force darker than any monster waits in the shadows, drawn to Kael’s unique power. In a world where survival depends on strength, one boy will discover the limits of his ability—and the truth of his legacy. Will he remain the underdog… or become the nightmare every portal fears?

Young Detective Pistachio thought his first case would be a simple theft report. Instead, he faced a worldwide event where thousands of prisoners and criminals died at the same time, showing no signs of violence. The public called this event “The Great Purge.” In a panic, the government ordered the mass disposal of the bodies to prevent riots and disease outbreaks. Arjuna was put in charge of overseeing the cremation of thousands of these so-called “scum of society.” However, after the ashes were scattered into the sea, a new wave of deaths began to hit those criminals still at large. These included offenders involved in bribery, murder, sexual harassment, abuse, robbery, mugging, theft, online gambling, fraud, shooting, corruption, catcalling, and hackers. Pistachio started to see a pattern: each death occurred right after the victim committed a concealed crime. He had to hurry to find the “Global Executioner” before he himself got caught in the purifying flames.
