evolution

In 2050, humanity shattered an asteroid to save Earth and accidentally cracked open an ancient tomb. The asteroid wasn't rock. It was Aethel a dead planet compressed into a prison by a civilization that sacrificed itself 10,000 years ago to seal away Echidna, a primordial entity of chaos. The fragments became floating Shard-Cities. The energy released, The Cascade, gave humanity supernatural powers. And the Entity's leaking corruption birthed Mana-Beasts that now plague the world. A century later, in 2150, society is rigidly divided by the M-Scale—your innate power level determines your entire life. Nulls toil on Earth. The Gifted serve in the sky. Elite Hunters are global celebrities, battling monsters in broadcasts while unknowingly feeding energy back to the sleeping god below. --- THE PROTAGONIST Arin "Kai" Vajra Rastogi is a 22-year-old M1 "Near-Null" from the Indus Valley Collective. He works as a Cutter disemboweling dead monsters for scraps to support his sick mother and aspiring younger sister. He is invisible, exhausted, and forgotten. Until a freak accident fuses an A-Rank beast-core into his body.

In a world where the sun disappeared seven years ago, shadows began to breathe. Kaito Ren was only nine when he discovered the truth — monsters were not born from darkness… they were created from human fear. After his village was slaughtered during the Crimson Eclipse, Kaito awakened a forbidden power: he can consume shadows and turn them into weapons. But every shadow he devours steals a piece of his humanity. Now hunted by the Holy Order and feared by survivors, Kaito walks a blood-soaked path between becoming a savior… or the next calamity. When the final eclipse rises, the world must decide — is he its last hope… or its final nightmare?

In a world suddenly thrown into chaos by a global “Awakening,” humanity discovers that supernatural abilities are real—but so are the consequences. Kaal, an ordinary man from Earth, is mysteriously transported to a parallel world on the brink of evolution. Armed with a unique system that allows him to copy talents and possess an “Absolute Limitless Body,” he rises faster than anyone else, becoming Rank One on the global Combat Power Ranking. But overwhelming power brings visibility. Governments begin artificial awakening experiments. Militaries seek control. Survivors fear him as much as they rely on him. Meanwhile, beneath the oceans and beyond the stars, something ancient begins to stir—an evolution not caused by humans. As Kaal navigates politics, war, artificial evolution, and global power struggles, he must decide: Will he become a weapon, a ruler, or the stabilizing force that prevents humanity from destroying itself in its desperate attempt to survive? This is not just a story of strength. It is a story about control, responsibility, and the cost of standing at the top.

[The Header Note] This is the Enhanced Edition of Marked By The Numbers. I have completely reworked the early chapters to provide a more immersive experience, deeper world-building, and better pacing. If you are a returning reader, I highly recommend starting from Chapter One to see the new details and secrets added to Kael’s journey. [The Synopsis] The monsters called the Numbers rule from the shadows. They've spent centuries hunting for one thing—the child marked in violet. Kael doesn't know any of this. He's just a boy turning ten in a small village that doesn't even appear on maps. But when a creature with eyes of purple light descends from the sky, Oakhaven burns. His mother dies protecting him. And the mark on his back—the one she checked every birthday—begins to burn. Now Kael is alone, carrying nothing but a dragon pendant and a secret buried in his blood. The things that destroyed his home are still hunting him. And the power waking up inside him? It's the very thing they want. He will chase them across a world of mercenaries and mages. He will learn what his mother died to hide. But the Numbers aren't running from him. They've been waiting for him to find them.

When the Killing Curse rebounded in Godric’s Hollow, it didn’t just leave a scar. It created a Soul-Glitch—a localized singularity where the absolute forces of Life and Death grind against each other, tearing a hole into the Aether, a primordial dimension filled with lethal magical beasts. ​Ten-year-old Harry Potter discovers he can enter this realm in his sleep. By hunting its inhabitants, he harvests Essence Orbs that permanently evolve his physical and magical biology. But the Aether is too vast for one boy to conquer alone. ​Arriving at Hogwarts, Harry realizes that his "glitch" allows him to anchor others to his soul. Rejecting the fickle and the weak, he binds himself to Neville Longbottom, the "Other Boy of Prophecy," transforming the clumsy boy into an indestructible Sentinel of the Earth, and Hermione Granger, whose brilliant mind becomes a super-calculator for complex spell-weaving. ​As the trio "grinds" through the floors of the Aether, the real world begins to change. The "Veil" is thinning, ancient "Deep Magic" sects are emerging from the shadows, and a terrifyingly evolved Voldemort is no longer just a Dark Lord—he is becoming a Calamity-Grade Apex Predator. The Wizarding World thinks they are preparing for a war; Harry and his team are preparing for an Extinction Level Event.

His name was Nathaniel Emberworth Wyndham, a simple nineteen-year-old with unruly dark hair that often fell over his deep, shadowed eyes, he moved unnoticed through the bustling streets of the city he reluctantly called home—a world too loud for someone who preferred silence. But one day, everything changed. Nathaniel found himself in another world—Infipousdefinity Despous Ta-Neter Mundus—a place of endless mysteries, strange beings, and creatures unlike anything known to man. **The reason i created this novel** Sometimes, we find ourselves in new places—new environments, new cultures, surrounded by new people. And in those unfamiliar worlds, some will take advantage of your ignorance. They will trick you, deceive you, or try to manipulate you for their own gain. In such an environment, where there’s no one to rely on but yourself, you must observe carefully and stay cautious. Don’t give your trust easily. Learn to survive and live on your own without depending too much on others. We dream new dreams. We grow cautious because of people. We crave things like status and wealth, knowing how hard life can be without them. We miss the ones we used to laugh with, miss our families—even just a little. We feel the distance, the separation, and fear we might not overcome the challenges ahead. As our surroundings change, we experience new things. Some people abandon us, while others change on their own—maturing, evolving. Yet even as we grow, we remain the same person behind that mature facade. We stumble and cry, we feel pain and keep it buried inside. But in time, we learn to fight back, realizing that pain fades once we learn to shield and defend ourselves.

Liam gave his life in a way that people will remember—a heroic plunge into icy waters to save a drowning child. But instead of meeting michael at the gates or his brother lucifer in the darkness, he woke up in a new, infinitely more complicated reality: the Marvel Multiverse. Not only that, but he was reborn as Logan/Wolverine, complete with the Adamantium skeleton, a dangerous healing factor, and the uncontrollable rage that comes with it. The reality he landed in is a confusing blend of various Marvel continuities—a mix of X-Men: Evolution, classic Comics, and the darker elements of the Fox movies. This volatile cocktail means the threats are unknown, the timeline is murky, and his iconic new powers are less of a gift and more of a ticking time bomb. With tragic memories of Wolverine's past, little control over the berserker state, and a target painted on his Adamantium-laced back, Liam's second chance at life is looking a lot like a struggle for survival. Thus begins Liam/Logan's journey to navigate a world that wants to weaponize him, an identity he can't escape, and powers that constantly threaten to consume him. He will have to learn, adapt, and fight—or risk losing himself entirely to the animal inside. Oh but he got a system !! _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before you ask: MC's Control: Liam has limited initial control over Logan’s powers and none over the berserker state. He has to learn to use them from the ground up and deal with the pain brought every time he uses his claws MC's Appearence: The MC doesn't look like the rugged, short and frankly ugly though charming logan from comics. But like Hugh Jackman who played him in the X-men live actions films. The Powers: The healing factor is active, but it takes time to recover from severe damage, especially as he learns to utilize it. The system: His system allows him to level up different parts of himself strength, intellegence, endurance ect. But also the vibranium metal coating his skeleton and his mutation factor. Oh and a bonus is that he can unlock templates of different versions of wolverine across different timelines and different roles played by hugh jackman across his career, as well as acquire different items and infuse them into himself. The World: Expect plenty of Mutant political intrigue and unknown comic-canon events. A Final Warning: DON'T COMPARE REAL LIFE TO A FANFIC AND THEN ARGUE.

In a city where the rain never truly stops and power hides behind forgotten truths, Kael Veyne lives unnoticed — a quiet observer in a world that feels slightly… wrong. Then he begins to remember things that never happened. A battlefield that does not exist. A crown made of bone and light. A voice whispering: You have fallen before. When Kael survives an event that should have killed him, strange glyphs begin to appear around him — symbols no one else can see. With every fragment of forgotten memory he recovers, reality subtly bends. Wounds close. Time hesitates. Shadows obey. But each awakening costs him something. Memories blur. Faces fade. His own reflection feels unfamiliar. He soon learns he is not alone. Others walk the city bearing hidden marks of ascension — individuals who manipulate probability, rewrite events, and harvest fragments of a broken world layered beneath this one. And above them all is The Hollow Crown, an ancient force tied to Kael’s past life — or perhaps a previous version of himself — that seeks to reclaim its rightful vessel. As rival Ascendants close in and the true structure of reality begins to fracture, Kael must choose: Remain human and lose his power… Or ascend once more — and risk becoming something no longer capable of remembering what it meant to be human. In a world built on forgotten cycles, memory is power. And Kael may be the final echo of a god who once rewrote existence.

Curious? So am I, and so are the constellations, so don't be shy. Let's see how this fucker develops. Yes, this piece of shit Lucca is nothing special, so don't expect anything like a grand past or some fucking connection to someone or something powerful. There's none of that here. “Oh, does he become a legend at least?” Yes, but in his own way. Nothing heroic, nothing villainous, nothing anti-heroic, just Lucca. And let's face it, for better or for worse, this theme is already quite saturated, isn't it? Anyway, my motto is: No pain, no gain. With pain, maybe gain. And just for the record, I'm not a sadist. He gets something if it's enough. But okay. What will you find here? Darkness. Action. Exploration. Interest x interest. Development.  Incest? Probably not, but who knows? You guys are perverts who like that stuff.  Harem? I'll warn you now, there might be, and if there are, I'll develop it or just throw in some whores.  Oh, is there a system? Yes, but it's not to take power away from the ass.  Other worlds? Probably. Yeah, there's going to be a lot. Maybe you'll waste your time here, maybe not. And I'm not fluent in English, but I'll try to learn; having no imagination isn't great for learning these things. And comment, I'm so lonely here. And for those who had already read it, sorry, I couldn't post it for some reason. Anyway, I decided to repost it, and I also changed a few things, so take another look.

His first destination: Overgeared. Dropped into a world where legends are forged through blacksmithing, combat, and status windows, *** As the name says its multiworld book. And first one is Overgeared, plus each world will be vast.

[WAKE UP. REPAIR. KILL. EVOLVE.] Marcus died as a human and woke up as scrap. Trapped in a rusted droid body with only 1% battery remaining, he finds himself at the bottom of the food chain in the Endless Scrapyard. Here, mercy is a glitch, and other bots are just walking spare parts waiting to be harvested. But Marcus has something the others don't: **The System.** He can rip the laser cannon off a fallen enemy and weld it to his arm. He can integrate the armor of a tank into his skin. He can consume the cores of his rivals to upgrade his own processing power. In a world ruled by Mega-Corporations and War AIs, being "just a machine" is a death sentence. To survive, he must become a monster. From a legless cripple to a Steel God of War. They call him junk. He calls himself the Future. *** **--- AUTHOR'S NOTE ---** This story is currently being posted on **Royal Road** and is significantly ahead of the updates here.
