tragedy

"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies... The man who never reads only lives once." Lucas Frost was a normal kid, who liked devouring his favorite novel in his free time. Life was ordinarily...extraordinary as he always believed: why settle for one life when a multitude awaits? But, fate is a cruel author. His ordinary life came to an abrupt end. Now, transmigrated in a novel, he once read as a reader. Raviel Thanarion must navigate and survive.... to reach the ending. Because, his story has just started and the scripted narration has ended. ============================ P.S support this lazy ass author. And you might get a cookie.

Izumi bullied his whole life gets a second chance at life. But is it really a second chance or is it a death sentence.

A school exchange trip to Korea's southern islands ends overnight when a neural broadcast triggers a mass behavioral collapse. The government responds with Containment Protocol Black Tide. Nineteen year old Seo Jun-ho has no powers and no systems, only discipline, combat training, and the ability to stay calm when others lose control. As the infected spread alive, in pain, and no longer fully human, society collapses faster than the outbreak itself. Authority fails. Information becomes a weapon. Safety becomes currency. Forced into leadership he never wanted, Jun-ho must guide his group from island to island toward the mainland, making decisions that save some lives and erase others. The more he survives, the further he drifts from the person he used to be. This is not a story about heroes. It is a story about what control keeps you alive and what it costs to keep it.

In the chaotic streets of Nursa, survival is a daily battle, and no one knows that better than Laxyie, a young man forged by loss and hardened by necessity. Orphaned at seven, his mother slain in the aftermath of his father’s deadly past, Laxyie has learned to fend for himself, taking on any job that keeps him alive. When a chance encounter in the tavern sets him on a path to Selam, a bustling town of wine, music, and hidden dangers, Laxyie finds himself facing a world far larger and more perilous than the streets of Nursa. Across the province of Zorka, threats wait in every forest, river, and alley: bandits, mercenaries, and those who wield power beyond imagination. But Laxyie has no illusions about family or legacy. He carries anger, resentment, and a single unshakable focus: survival and mastery of his own skill. From the shadows of crowded towns to the wilds of Zorka, he will carve his path with blade, wit, and relentless determination. In a world teeming with assassins, elves, dragons, and sea monsters, where powers lie in bloodlines and secrets, Laxyie’s journey is just beginning. The question is not whether he can survive—but whether he will become something far greater than the sins of his father.

In the sprawling, neon-lit labyrinth of Tokyo, Yasakchiru Mahitaro's life has always been a quiet torment. At 37, trapped in the grueling grind of a supermarket known for overwork and ruthless management, his days are filled with exhaustion, ridicule, and the unshakable shadow of a childhood tragedy. Framed for a fellow student's death, ostracized, and scarred by a world that never forgave him, Mahitaro has spent decades wandering through life like a ghost, surviving but never living. One night, pushed beyond the edge of despair, he ends his life-but death is not the end. Awakening in his own past, he is given a second chance, though it comes tangled with the memories of every failure, every loss, and every death he endured. Trapped in endless loops of time, Mahitaro faces a cruel reality: no matter what he does, fate has a way of repeating itself, and the faces of those he loves-and those who torment him-return with relentless precision. Through the haze of depression and the sting of grief, Mahitaro begins to fight back. With each reset, he searches for patterns, allies, and answers, uncovering the dark figure that has haunted his loops: a mysterious red-haired student whose cruelty and cunning seem limitless. Alongside him is Barisu Vultari, a brilliant but enigmatic peer whose knowledge of time theory may be Mahitaro's only hope of breaking free. The Only Answer Is DEATH! ( 唯一の答えは死だ！) is an emotional, harrowing journey through despair, rage, and resilience. Every reset brings heartbreak, every choice carries the weight of countless lives, and every loop forces Mahitaro to confront the darkest truths about humanity-and himself. This is a story of horror, heartbreak, and the fragile sparks of hope that survive even in the most relentless cycles of time. Season - 2 - Desciption: In Tokyo's neon-lit sprawl, fourteen-year-old Mahitaro walks a world he has already bled to save. Past loops haunt him-bloodied streets, the shattered bodies of his brother Yasuke and closest friend Gekidō, the lives he could not save. Every scream, every death, is etched into his mind, yet tonight he steps again into a storm he cannot escape. A bright day at Tokyo's newest amusement park descends into nightmare. Mahitaro, Gekidō, and the now-adult Yasuke face rides meant for laughter-where steel cables snap, restraints twist into deadly snares, and hidden mechanisms lie in wait. In a world where a single misstep can mean death, Mahitaro moves with the precision of one who has survived a thousand grotesque deaths, each more horrifying than the last. From the shadows, Eruto Kaiju watches-a figure once close in a past future, now consumed by bitterness and revenge. Alongside a masked, enigmatic old gran gran, he orchestrates carnage with cruel intent. Blood spills, screams echo through neon light, and Mahitaro teeters on the edge of despair, tested to the limits of sanity and resolve. As loops press relentlessly, each death more grotesque than the last, Mahitaro faces a chilling truth: he cannot save everyone. Yet in the darkness, amid suffering and terror, a fragile spark remains-a burning resolve to protect the family he loves so dearly once more. Every heartbeat, every step, becomes a battle against fate itself, in a tale of relentless horror, shattered innocence, and the haunting question: how much can a person endure before the world finally breaks them?

They said love could save me. But they never told me it could destroy everything else. I loved her with every broken part of me. She saw the light in places I'd long buried under years of darkness. For a while, it felt like maybe I could be someone better, someone whole. But the past never forgets. Her father found out who I really am - the son of someone he could never forgive, a man carrying a mind that doesn't always stay steady. He gave me a choice that wasn't a choice at all. Now I have to break the only thing that ever made me feel alive: us. She'll hate me. And that's exactly what will keep her safe.

The world believes the Chimera Ant King is dead. After the explosion of the Miniature Rose, the royal palace of East Gorteau is erased from existence, its ruins buried, its history silenced by the Hunter Association. Humanity moves on, convinced that the greatest threat it ever faced has been eliminated. But death did not claim everything. Bound by a devotion that transcended species, logic, and power, Meruem and Komugi survived. Through an unprecedented fusion of Nen—born not from ambition, but from absolute attachment—the poison was neutralized, and life was preserved. The cost, however, was immense. Meruem awakens changed. His overwhelming power has diminished. His monstrous form has softened, becoming almost human. And for the first time, he is no longer driven by conquest. Komugi, now able to see, remains at his side—unaware of the true nature of the power she awakened, yet inseparable from the king whose fate is now bound to hers. Together, they leave the ruins behind. What follows is not a story of domination, but of wandering. As Meruem travels through the human world, he is forced to confront questions no king was ever meant to face: What is strength, when it can no longer impose itself? What is humanity, when seen from within rather than above? And what remains of a ruler, once the throne has vanished? Meanwhile, unseen forces begin to stir. Hunters sense an absence where power once reigned. Nen reacts to a presence that should not exist. And the fragile balance between species, history, and memory begins to shift. This is the story of a fallen king—not seeking redemption, nor forgiveness—but understanding. A quiet journey across a world that was never meant to survive him.

When Earth was connected to the Vast Expanse, the world became a game of survival. A layered, sanctuary-like realm overlapped reality, and every human was granted a single chance to awaken a class and a summon. Those who awakened gained the right to enter the Vast Expanse. Most awakened as elemental lords, weapon masters, shadow hunters, or divine supports, each bound to a powerful summon. But Loki was different. He awakened something that did not fit the system. ...... [Class: Dragon Sovereign] Effect: Every dragon you kill is reborn as a dragonoid paladin eternally loyal to you. ...... A Storm Dragon does not die. It rises again as the Heaven-Piercing Thunder Marshal, a colossal knight crowned in stormfire, whose spear splits continents and whose march drowns the sky itself in endless lightning. A Time Dragon does not fall. It returns as the Chronos Verdict Knight, an armored judge of eternity whose blade can age empires into dust in a single strike and rewind entire battlefields as if they never existed. In the Vast Expanse, Loki does not gather companions. Every dragon he slays becomes part of his Divine Legion. ..... https://discord.gg/varZ7MJ7uk

He has already lost control once and the massacre that followed still haunts him. Since then, he has vowed never to take a mate. Never bond. Never risk another life. But when Lyra Hale crosses into his territory, everything changes. Her scent calms the violent wolf inside him. Her touch silences the curse that never stops whispering for blood. And the mate bond snaps into place the moment he sees her. That terrifies him more than anything. Because Lyra isn’t just his mate—she is the only one who can break his curse… or trigger it completely. Now every pack wants her—some to use her, some to kill her. And Kaelan becomes the only one who can keep her alive. As dark forces awaken and forgotten bloodlines rise, Lyra must decide: save the Alpha fated to end her life or flee before their bond consumes them both. But Kaelan’s wolf has already decided: curse or not, she is his.

From a childhood marked by suffering, through the struggles of growing up, and finally achieving success in life, he had endured it all. One day, he decided it was time to rest—time to settle down, marry, have children, and train them to carry on his legacy. But fate had other plans. Reality was cruel. On his way to his wedding, his life was abruptly cut short. A sniper's bullet pierced his heart, killing him instantly in his car. Yet, in a twist of cosmic irony, his soul was extracted before it could pass on. In a half-conscious, half-unconscious state, his soul traveled millions of light years across the universe. He witnessed stars and galaxies, memories that weren’t his own, and a recurring nightmare that would haunt him for eternity. When he awoke, it felt as though he had emerged from an eternal slumber. To his shock, he was no longer in his old world. Instead, he found himself in the body of his ten-year-old self, having transmigrated to a completely different world—a world of darkness and despair. This new world was a place where sadness and bloodshed reigned supreme. The strong oppressed the weak, crushing them like insects. Here, money held no value without power. It was a brutal, unforgiving realm where survival was the only law. Zilon, as he now called himself, would have to cling to anything—anything at all—just to stay alive. But survival was only the beginning. Zilon, who had started from the very bottom, would have to claw his way to the top. He would face life and death, sweetness and sorrow, and ultimately, he would confront the true disaster of the universe: the Demon God. Yet, the demons were not his only concern. Otherworldly creatures known as Chaos Creatures emerged periodically through a rift called the Chaos Gate. These beings possessed the power to annihilate entire universes if left unchecked. Despite these overwhelming odds, Zilon’s ambition burned brighter than ever. He vowed to become the strongest being in the entire multiverse. He wanted his name to strike terror into the hearts and minds of all who heard it. Not dragons, vampires, werewolves, elves, beastkins, demons, giants, or titans—nothing would be worthy of being called his enemy. But would these be his only adversaries? Or would greater challenges lie ahead? ...... **NOTE 1:** If you’re wondering whether this book is a mistake, rest assured—it’s not. If you want to dive straight into the main story, start reading from Chapter 17 or 18 (subtitled *Zilon*). However, I highly recommend reading Chapters 1 to 16 first, as they provide crucial backstory and context. To clarify, Chapter 19 (which is Chapter 17 in the main storyline) is where the main narrative truly begins! **NOTE 2:** No matter what, do not—under any circumstances—compare the contents of this book to the real world. This is a work of pure fantasy. While some elements may coincidentally align with reality, they are entirely fictional and not intended to reflect real-world events or ideologies.

In a modern world where Beastmen live hidden among humans, the royal bloodline rules through fear, violence, and ancient authority. Rosalie, former queen and beast-woman, escapes the palace with her newborn daughter Aurore to flee her husband Richard, the Beast King, whose cruelty knows no limit. Humiliated by her escape, Richard vows to erase every trace of their bloodline. Aurore grows up in secrecy, unaware of her royal origins. She only wants a normal life. But at the academy where she tries to blend in, shadows of the kingdom start to gather around her: strange disappearances, infiltrated agents, accidents that feel too calculated. Simon, an elite assassin serving the king, receives the order to kill an unknown woman—Rosalie. He doesn’t know her identity until he falls in love with her. When the truth is revealed, he must choose between betraying the king or killing the woman he loves. His decision will shape Aurore’s destiny. David, heir of a powerful corporate empire, finds in Aurore the only person who sees him as more than a name. His affection turns into a fragile, sincere love—destined never to be fully returned. As Richard closes his deadly trap, Aurore discovers she is more than a target: she is the key to an ancient conflict, the living weapon of a forgotten prophecy, and the last witness of a kingdom determined to destroy her. Between lies, manipulation, political murders, and sacrificial love, Aurore must decide: to flee, to fight, or to accept a destiny that could erase everything she hopes to be. But how do you survive when everyone you love can become an enemy? And how do you love when love itself condemns you to die?

He did not cross worlds as a chosen hero. He was reborn—crying, helpless, and human. In his second life, he tried to be good. He protected others, trained his power, and believed effort could change fate. For a time, the world rewarded him with warmth, comrades, and a future worth dreaming of. Then it took everything back. His family was erased, his name condemned, and the very people he saved branded him a monster. The power he awakened was not evil—but fear twisted it into sin. He did not fall because of hatred. He fell because being a hero changed nothing. So he stopped trying to save the world. Reborn as a man, broken as a hero, he chose the role the world feared most. Not a demon. Not a king. A villain who remembers what it meant to be human. This time, he will not beg for justice. He will be it.
