tragedy

We all hide some truths from others, a side that shouldn't be seen by others." Kim Seo-Yeon, CEO of Kim Enterprise with strict boundaries. She came from Paris after years, just to handle the company. "I hate it when people shows how innocent they are. I'll put off the every single mask." Jeon-Woo, CEO of Jeon Empire, loves to invade in others life, and his target is now, Seo-Yeon. But time flies and flowers bloom... but just one side. "J is the devil of BHIYUNG, and devil never appears in his true form." J, Unseen Mafia King of BHIYUNG choosed to marry Seo-Yeon. "I don't want to marry. What if my secrets are exposed on the first night? What if this groom forces me?" Different thoughts are popping in Se-yeon's mind. "Why my heart breaks if she's going to marry?" Jeon-Woo mumbled slowly. "What's belong to J can never be shared. Be mine, or bleed in hell." Three identities, one loop. Was it destiny or someone's manipulation? What will happen when Jeon, J, and Seo-yeon will be same place at the same time? When their secrets come out!

In a remote, snowbound village, a battered boy lay half-buried in the cold, his body broken and surrounded by corpses after a demon's brutal feast. As consciousness faded, a faint scent of wisteria drifted through the air, strange yet comforting. Through his blurred vision, a butterfly seemed to descend beside him, but it was no insect. It was a girl. With a gentle smile and amethyst eyes, Kochō Shinobu, the Insect Hashira, knelt beside him, calm amid the carnage. "Come with me," she said softly. Her voice, warm and soothing, pierced the boy's despair like sunlight breaking through winter clouds. From that moment, his fate changed. He joined the Demon Slayer Corps and trained under the Stone Hashira, Himejima Gyomei, the strongest of the Hashira. On the battlefield, he fought beside Kamado Tanjiro, forging bonds through blood and survival. Yet beyond strength and comradeship, something deeper took root in him: an unspoken love for Shinobu. But beneath it all burned a single, unrelenting purpose: to hunt down and kill the one responsible for everything, the demon who destroyed his life.

"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?”

Discord server link to see the images and the chapter release schedule: https://discord.gg/ksWxRKrbVe A child born without choice, handed over to three strangers who hid secrets heavier than the mountains they lived in. Shen Zhu never knew tenderness. He knew the whip before words, poison before hunger, and death before he understood what life meant. Behind every blow and wound, eyes watched him with a love that looked nothing like mercy, and hands pushed him to fall so they could teach him how to rise. He grew up in a world that gives nothing for free, where strength is measured in scars, friendship is built upon the corpses of beasts, and fate smiles mockingly at those who try to escape it.

Nothing is set in stone—not time, not fate, and certainly not Death. But in Rudra's existence, one thing has remained constant: a person. In her tears and rage. In her love and hatred. Now, Rudra is determined to figure out why she was the only one who mourned his death while the rest of the world celebrated his demise—especially since they had always stood on opposite sides of the war. And her answer might be the one thing he holds most dear—the only truth that remains truly sacred. In the kingdom of Partha, power does not negotiate. It descends from the mountain, absolute and ancient, in the form of Ravaan Azhdar — the Dragon King — and his son, Prince Rudra, who inherits his father's fire and none of his patience. In his first life, Rudra did what dragons do. He wanted the Saintess of Benevia and he took her — flew across half the known world and carried Teresa Williams out of her country like a thing claimed, imprisoning her in the cursed land of Alaka for months while the kingdoms of men scrambled to respond. He was not cruel to her, exactly. He simply did not think of her as something that required particular consideration. She was leverage. She was a statement. She was, in the particular arithmetic of dragon politics, a piece on a board. He did not expect Percival Leonhart. The hero came through Alaka the way heroes do — through impossible odds and worse terrain, carrying the legendary sword of Mamon, and he killed Rudra with it. Not cleanly. Not quickly. But definitively. Rudra lay dying in the ruins of everything he had built, alone, which was no more than he deserved and he knew it, and he waited for the end with the specific resignation of a creature who has no remorse, no regret whatsoever. Then Tish appeared. Not rescued, not triumphant, not standing over him with justified contempt. She appeared the way she always moved through the world — quietly, purposefully, and in this case with her hands already reaching for him, her holy magic already trying to knit shut wounds that had no business being knittable. She was crying. She was afraid. And she was, against every law of sense and self-preservation, trying to save the dragon who had taken her from her home He didn't understand it. He asked her why, once, in the way a dying thing asks questions — without real expectation of an answer. She didn't explain. She kept healing. And then an arrow found her, from somewhere in the dark, and she died in front of him before he could — before he could what, exactly, he would spend a great deal of time not finishing that thought. Then Rudra woke up in his bed in Ashkavar. Three years before any of it happened. He lay there for a long time. Long enough for the disorientation to pass and the facts to arrange themselves into something he could examine. He had been given time back, though by what mechanism or mercy he couldn't say. The world was reset. Tish was alive somewhere in Benevia, being saintly and blessed and entirely unaware of everything that hadn't happened yet. He did not love her. He wants to be clear about that, if only to himself. He had barely known her in the first life, and what he had known he hadn't particularly liked — she was stubborn and principled and had an infuriating tendency to keep extending grace to things that hadn't earned it, chief among them apparently him. He did not miss her. He missed the answer she hadn't given him. He missed the specific shape of a question that had no other possible source of resolution. Why had she tried to save him. And for that answer, he was determined to burn everything down all over again. (I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com )
