tragedy

In a distant past, the seven Ancestral Beasts clashed, and the blood they spilled rained onto the entire plane, infecting humans and animals alike, making them part of their powerful bloodlines. As a small village’s hunter, Liam was unaware of the consequences of that legendary battle. His sole goal was to become a cultivator to gain the strength and resources he needed to avenge his family. Yet, when Liam’s Ancestral Bloodline awakened, he uncovered a connection between his family’s killers and the Dragon King, a connection that could expand his revenge to the entire Kingdom. -------------------- Discord link: https://discord.gg/mefzf3aQJ8 Instagram: eocnovels X: @EoCNovels Cover artist: https://digitalrowye.com

"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

"Why. Of all the people in the world, why did you have to kill her. This will never slide. I won't let you love in peace till the day you die..." With that, Anna took off, tears clinging to her eyelids for dear life. It had been too sudden. The child was now an orphan, because the father didn't care much about him. She devoted her life to avenge her sisters death, caused by her unfaithful husband. She got into the car, holding her ashes in her arms while a stream of tears flowed elegantly down her cheeks. The only words she could say as the truck slammed into the driver's seat a few moments later is... 'This is unforgivable. This suffering on earth, When Will It Stop?'

"What is in this egg?" asked a person wearing a rice hat, who was holding a golden egg that was glowing a soft warm light. "Currently, nothing much, but a new life. But when older and fully grown it will be the first source dragon, to ever hatch from the powers of each source dragon." explained a silver, golden dragon looking down at the person wearing the rice hat. Who looked up, amazed by this news. "I take it the reason you are letting me even hold it, is because you require help?" the person asked. The dragon chuckled a bit at the person's question. "Yes, while it's still an egg, it is very vulnerable and should it get in the wrongs hands, they might try and use its powers or even take it from it which would kill it. That is why we are asking you, First Spinjitzu Master, to take it and keep it safe, and out of harms way until it has hatched and been able to grow." said the dragon. The First Spinjitzu Master looked back at the egg in his hands as he felt a small movement from it, a soft smile grew on his face at that. "Don't worry, I'll keep it safe from any danger, you have my word Source Dragon of Balance. I'll even have someone help with put a spell on this little one, so most of its powers are locked away until it is ready." Original from Wattpad Discord: https://discord.gg/HfcEVXGahr

Growing up, Jurgen carried an unyielding hatred that he could not understand or explain. It stayed with him through his early years as a constant pressure, manifesting as a persistent need to punish something or someone, though nothing ever seemed sufficient to match what he felt. Over time, this unresolved weight pushed him to blame the world itself, especially as he moved through repeated hardships that forced him to grow stronger both in ability and in his desire for power. Alongside this, Jurgen lived with an illness that affected his health and continuously interfered with his journey, adding another layer of strain to his existence and shaping the way he moved through the world. As he matured, Jurgen drifted away from any sense of conventional morality and eventually became a rogue criminal. He was cold, calculated, and highly manipulative, acting without hesitation when it benefited him directly. Whether through deception or killing, he did not restrain himself. He was never the type to act as a hero or place himself in sacrifice for others; in situations of survival, he would always choose himself without hesitation, even if it meant cutting off any path that allowed others to advance. In time, Jurgen would grow greatly in the power he had been pursuing and uncover the true source of his hatred as well as his history. However, understanding it did not alter his direction. Instead, he chose to continue forward on the same path, no longer driven by ignorance but by conscious intent. From that point onward, he evolved beyond a mere criminal into something far more absolute, becoming a tyrannical existence shaped by awareness, conviction, and the refusal to turn back…

In a world where evolution went wrong, beasts mutated... oceans awakened... and ancient demons returned. The human race is no longer at top of the food chain. When heavenly Blood Rings drop down, chosen humans receive the ability to capture and control monsters, although no power comes without a cost. Zyric, a common boy from the lowest zone, finds a forbidden ring... a ring that the demons are afraid of. With the fall of the kingdoms, the jungle tribes emerge, the ocean guardians awaken, and alien civilizations observe Earth, a brutal era begins, the Era of Beast Lords. To survive, he must hunt. To protect, he must evolve. And to rule… he must become something no human has ever been. A demon tamer.

Aeridor is vast and alive — old magic runs quietly through everything, waiting to be noticed. Alvios leaves Auenfeld with no destination, chasing nothing more than curiosity. He isn't looking for glory. He isn't running from anything. What he finds is a world larger and far less gentle than he expected — quick friendships, real consequences, and choices with no easy answers. Aeridor Ascending — an ordinary traveler, a world that never asked if he was ready.

[Progression] [Dark Fantasy] [Weekly Updates | Volume 1 Fully Written] Luthian Stahl Eisenhart is the second-born son of one of the kingdom's four great ducal houses, a prestigious family that has produced formidable magic swordsmen for generations. But at just five years old, Luthian's future takes a cruel turn. During the magical trial to determine his innate potential, he is revealed to have no mana at all. The verdict delivered in the Lunar Hall seals his fate. To his family, he is nothing more than a failure. Stripped of his title and disowned, Luthian is cast out of his home and sent to the Lower District, a brutal training ground for the Crimson Knights under the command of Zoltan. Yet, just before his exile, Luthian discovers an ability no one else knows he possesses: an extraordinary capacity for learning. Though he lacks mana, this hidden talent may give him another way to grow stronger. But understanding its true nature and mastering it will take time. In a ruthless world where talent determines a person's worth and strength means survival, Luthian must forge his own path from nothing. Grueling training, unexpected encounters, and deadly battles await him as he struggles to overcome his limitations and build a future on his own terms. But the further he goes, the more he begins to question the fate imposed upon him. Because behind his supposed failure lies a secret capable of changing everything.

Through the Sky Screen’s broadcast, Kaito summons heroes from other worlds and wields strange tools to twist reality itself. With the system he embraces the art of deception—fabricating half-true, half-false futures that even the wisest cannot ignore. Pirates, Marines, and Celestial Dragons alike are forced to accept these visions, no matter how absurd, as if stripped of every defense. In this false future, Buggy the Clown emerges as a nightmare reborn. After twenty years of secret training, his Devil Fruit awakening is said to hold enough power to shatter the Red Line. Former Shichibukai rally to his banner as sworn brothers, and even the Marine’s legendary hero Garp is proclaimed slain at his hands. Behind the laughter hides a vast conspiracy, one that threatens to upend the balance of the world itself.

In the far reaches of space, where empires rise and fall in silence, a rogue crew aboard a ship unlike any other carves its path through the void. Their leader — enigmatic, dangerous, and driven by something deeper than conquest — leaves a trail of havoc wherever he goes. But this isn’t just a story of rebellion. It’s a story of purpose. Of fate. Of whether the stars themselves can be bent to one man’s will. TARTARUSIOS blends high-stakes action with mystery and mythic undertones. The ship is more than metal — it’s legend. The crew, more than criminals — they’re chosen. And as their journey unfolds, the question remains: will they reach their goal, or will destiny rewrite their course?

Jin Yeong lived an ordinary life. He worked an ordinary job, went home to an ordinary apartment, and was the kind of man nobody ever remembered. That all changed the day the sky cracked open over Seoul. A voice echoed across the world, mocking humanity's weakness. Monsters flooded the streets, cities fell in a single night, and every survivor was given a skill to fight back. Some awakened the power to control fire, lightning, or the earth itself. Jin awakened Limitless Weapon Mastery, a skill that let him use any weapon at its full potential and nothing more. Without magic or special powers, he seemed to have drawn the weakest hand of all. But in a world where survival meant fighting with whatever was within reach, Jin soon discovered that his skill held far more than anyone expected. With nothing but his skill and the will to protect the people beside him, Jin began his journey through a broken world, where anything he holds can kill.

Arata Kurogane was nothing more than a faceless side character—at least, in this new world. Born into a prestigious clan famed for their mastery of Circuits, the natural meridians that grant humans power over fire, lightning, illusions, and even time itself, Arata’s body was branded talentless and left behind in the shadows of his brilliant siblings. But fate had other plans. When his soul from another world awakens within this forgotten vessel, Arata discovers two terrifying truths: 1. His left eye circuit, when awakened, can paralyze, torment, and even extinguish life itself. 2. His soul circuit allows him to manifest anything he imagines—so long as it makes sense. To the world, he remains a background figure. To himself, he knows the truth: he is limitless. While heroes clash for fame and villains rise to destroy kingdoms, Arata has no interest in playing their game. He will walk the path of a “shadow,” quietly building his strength, rewriting the rules of reality itself, and crushing those foolish enough to stand in his way. Because no one—not his clan, not the empire, not even the gods—will realize… The background character is the strongest of them all.

Embark on a poignant journey through the pages of my book as I unravel the tapestry of my childhood in Benevides, a tranquil town nestled near sprawling farms. The narrative unfolds against the rustic backdrop of Benevides.

Lightweight system) (Slow-heating) Aegon travels to the world of A Song of Ice and Fire and becomes Aegon Targaryen, who shares the same name. Good news: He possesses the bloodline of the Valyrian Dragon King and can ride dragons. Bad news: I didn't transmigrate into Aegon the Conqueror who conquered the Seven Kingdoms, nor into any of the Targaryen kings in history, but into "Little Aegon"—yes, the one who got smashed against a wall by the Mountain and had his head split open. To make matters worse, the Targaryen dynasty had already fallen, and a usurper had ascended the throne in King's Landing. He could only drag his broken body and rely on the system to stay alive as he fled to the Narrow Sea. Aegon thought he was getting a tragic and heartbreaking script, but what happened? Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in at the Valyrian Ruins and received 1 chance to win a prize. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn the Golden Legendary item and obtained King Ghidorah (juvenile form). Aegon stared in astonishment at the grotesque three-headed beast on the system screen: "Wait... is this art style right?!" When the shadow of a three-headed dragon, obscuring the sky, swept across King's Landing, when the chaotic Seven Kingdoms were reunited under the dragon's wings, and when usurpers and traitors were reduced to ashes in the flames, the maesters who wrote the Targaryen Chronicles bestowed upon him the title "Aegon the Avenger" after Aegon the Conqueror.

Before you read: *Please be aware that this is not a flower-and-bee, sunshine-and-rainbows kind of fanfic. My MC is far from being the so-called hero. So if your heart is filled with justice, then maybe this isn’t for you. Also, the story start very slowly. Unlike the Original Naruto story, I kick start the Journey from when MC was around 5 to 6 years old. Meaning most of the time, it would be lacking interaction or useless dialogues. The MC is an adults trap in a kid body, if you were to expect a random dialogues too early on you'll be in for a disappointment. But as the story unfold, the meaningful conversation and other character personality will naturally be more balance as the story progress.* __________________ A modern soul from Earth awakens in the endless void. In that darkness, he becomes a soul devourer, consuming all that exists within the realm. When nothing remains, he breaks through a portal and is reborn in the world of Naruto as Enso Uzumaki. He’s no ordinary Shinobi. Genjutsu? Useless—his soul is untouchable. Ninjutsu? He wields all five elements with terrifying ease. Taijutsu? Unrivalled in close combat. Medical Ninjutsu? His skill outshines even Tsunade's. Fuinjutsu? Taught by Kushina Uzumaki herself. Enso isn’t here to relive the story—he’s here to surpass it. Calm, calculating, and utterly ruthless, he bends the Shinobi world to his will. Is there anything he can’t do? If it exists, he’ll master it. If it doesn’t, he’ll create it. _____________ I couldn’t present you with an Anos Voldigoad or Saitama-like character. Since the story is set in a Shinobi world, the MC can’t just throw skills around like a card game without depth. I’m modelling the MC after Rimuru Tempest, who is pretty OP from the start but still has room to grow. What to expect? 1. Overpower Protagonist 2. Clear Goal and Ambition 3. Original Jutsu and Bloodline ability that fit well within the Narutoverse 4. Connecting the dots within the area that was left unexplored by the Original Canon. 5. No more than two love interests. 6. No loyalty toward the so-called 'Will Of Fire' 7. Logical fight scenes. 8. Clear Path of Development. ( Despite the MC being OP from the beginning, he's gonna keep growing stronger until he reaches the point of creating his unique Path.) All I’m suggesting is to give it a try, and you might enjoy it. Feel free to comment, or if you like the story, drop a review.

I curate exhibitions. I study beauty. I keep my hands clean. New York is too loud, and the men who run it are louder. Some of them have been going quiet lately, one at a time, without a mark on them, without a struggle, without a single drop of blood on the carpet. The police call me the Silent Monster. I prefer Belladonna. A detective is looking for a ghost. My patron thinks I've become noise. And somewhere between the two, I made the only mistake I have ever made: I let myself feel something. Some things fade naturally. Others are helped.
