[This webnovel is the direct sequel to Emperor's Reckoning. Returning fans will see Lyon's legacy continue, but new readers can jump right into the chaos without missing a beat!] My dad conquered the Three Realms. My mom is the literal War Goddess. Me? I just got grounded for peeking into the Valkyries' changing room... (with my two brothers.) My punishment? I have to infiltrate the Fourth World—a bizarre, invading reality governed by 'Levels,' 'Classes,' and 'Aether'—and destroy its logic from the inside... with my two brothers. They think their rigid laws make them invincible. They think a high level means they can't be touched. But they haven't met me. Between my massive inherited skill grid and a 100% EXP boost from my Zodiac Heir title, I'm leveling up faster than this world can handle. And when I meet an enemy I'm not supposed to be able to kill? I use my cheat to drag them down to my level and cave their face in... (with my two brothers.) Alongside Anthierin, a blacksmith who constantly yells at me for breaking the gear she makes, I'm going to speedrun this world, loot its dungeons, and burn its absolute laws to the ground... (I got separated from my two brothers.) The Fourth World wanted an invasion. They're about to get a reckoning.

A person transmigrated into the body of the most unfortunate person, Hu Yuhao the Son in law of the sea god Tang San. When the heavens take something from you they give me something back. In this case his Spirit eyes evolved into Eyes of Truth the can unveil the mysterious of the world.

May 20, 2030. An unknown figure stands atop the tallest building on Earth — and the age of hidden fear begins. Beneath the fragile surface of reality, gods and indifferent higher entities rule through an invisible judgment system that mortals were never meant to witness. Ancient clans that once kept the balance have been hunted to extinction. In their wake, a secretive government organization gathers the shattered survivors of the supernatural — branding them Sinners. They are not saviors. They are not monsters. They are living proof that even divine judgment can break. Rookie Sinner Karry steps into this shadowed world alongside the ice-veined operative Sasha and the eerily composed Arnold — a man whose calm hides depths no one dares question. Their first mission is simple: rescue hostages from a routine threat. It ends in catastrophe. Breaches tear open between realms. Cities vanish without trace. Entities from above descend like hunters, while governments below scramble to erase every witness. As the veil rips wider, Karry uncovers the chilling truth: The gods are not protecting humanity. They are evaluating it. And walking silently through the growing storm is Arnold — a figure who understands the rules of existence better than any god, fears nothing, and draws his blade only when the line between survival and annihilation is crossed. Because when the final judgment descends… it will not arrive as war. It will arrive as calamity.

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top! Note: The novel is a gritty version of the typical hunter/awakener novels with a beast twist, which I hope you will enjoy Discord Server: https://discord.gg/c34nURr72W P.S.

I was a normal person until something changes my life forever...

They call him Ghost. A name spoken in fear through warzones, underground syndicates, and the darkest corners of the black market. To the world, he is a phantom. A faceless mercenary who leaves behind nothing except bloodshed and silence. To his enemies, he is death itself. To the operatives of Graveyard, he is one of their own. Family forged through war. But to himself… he is only a broken man chasing fragments of a past stolen by bullets, fire, and smoke. After completing another flawless mission deep within the Eastern Province, Ghost returns to the hidden forest base that has been his home for seventeen years. Yet the calm lasts only moments before his foster father and commander gives him an order he never expected. “That was your final mission.” Now Ghost, whose real name is Miles Sterling, must leave behind the battlefield and step into a normal world he barely understands. Armed with nothing except an old letter, fading childhood memories, and the voice of a mother he has not seen since the day his life was torn apart. But war did not only shape his body and soul. Behind the mask, beneath the scars, Miles hides another truth. A secret buried from even the men who fought beside him. He is not merely a weapon created by war. He is a ghost who built a fortune in silence. A hidden empire stretching across borders, corporations, black markets, and shadows. A man known by many names. A man followed by countless secrets. Beneath the violence, tattoos, and silence lies a truth buried in ashes. And Ghost is finally ready to uncover it… one memory, one enemy, and one letter at a time.

[Hiatus Note: Originally written for a story contest - on pause for the foreseeable future.] Tor is a simple adventurer, content with his modest lifestyle of daily quests, simple living, and casual friendships. He has no great ambitions or far-reaching goals, cares not for wealth or fame, and is simply... content. When what should have been a simple adventure goes wrong, Tor's hidden past breaks free from its shackles. Staying 'as is' is no longer an option - levelling up is the only way to prepare for the storm building on the horizon. ---- Cover Page Photo Credits (Images Open Source on Unsplash) Linus Sandvide, Luke Neasi

I died once reaching for a woman whose face I can no longer remember. Reborn into the Vorn Dynasty—a brutal family that rules over thirteen worlds along with other territories—I was supposed to be a genius. Instead, I was declared broken. My soul is fractured, my memories are gone, and my own siblings view me as nothing more than a lamb for the slaughter. But the cracks in my soul aren't empty. They're filled with something ancient. A piece of my past. [SYSTEM INITIALIZATION...] [SOUL INTEGRITY: 47%] [THE DARKNESS CALLS] With the power to crush my enemies with gravity, fry their nerves with lightning and the darkness at my call, I will carve a path through the blood of my rivals. I will unearth the mystery of my past death, reclaim the woman haunting my dreams, and tear down the empires that dare to stand in my way. But power isn't the only thing I crave. In a universe where betrayal is the only constant, I find solace in the arms of those brave enough to love a monster. I will collect their hearts, their bodies, and their absolute devotion. This isn't a story about a hero. This is a story about a monster who chose to be one—and the people who love him anyway. The question isn't whether he'll find her. The question is what's left of him when he does. He doesn't save people. He claims them. And somehow, that's worse.

A detective story in a world of no crime. A villain protecting safety of the people. And yet, Orion Winters, a private detective sets out to demolish the organization that had kept the people safe for so long—the villain, as he calls— all because they took his family away. UPDATE (5 Aug) Dear readers who have read or about to read. Let me warn you that this book carries a lot of lack in emotional depth. As a student with my academic pressure, I only took out time to use my excitement and motivation to write the action scenes like cool fights and dialogues and murder mystery. Now, looking back, I have realized I forgot to add the terror a person might feel when sudden things happen. I need to correct some chapters and personally, I am glad I gave myself a reality check before it was too late. The published chapters are not much. I can still fix it although I am not sure I know how to manage my time. If you read till here, thank you.

"1,000 years ago, the world of Animans trembled before Nemesis, the Jabbarin Maliqun of Destruction and WEAPONS. To save existence, the 4th Hidden Maliqun King sacrificed his life to seal the monster within the Orb of Ruin. Peace was restored, but the darkness was never gone. It was waiting. In the modern era, six brothers are born at the exact same moment—a miracle known as the Nuplets. Among them is Thunder, a young man who is special because he is Qadirun Maliqun of THUNDER,LIGHTNING,ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETICS and his 5 brothers are also Qadirun Maliqun. But Thunder carries a secret even he doesn't understand: the Orb of Ruin has awakened inside him.

Yun wakes up missing three days of his memory, after which he is told to enter another world and fight for his life: [Descendant! Consume the Celestial Fragment and enter the First Vision.] Every seven years, Severin's Curse awakens within millions of Descendants, dragging them into the ancient and ruined Forsaken Realm. Those who survive its trials return magically transformed, and ascend into Divines. Yun never wanted to become one of them, but not because he was the asshole, okay? The feeling was mutual. Exiled from his Clan since birth and abandoned by his own mother and sister, he was resigned to scraping by in poverty alone. But apparently, Severin didn't think that was enough excitement for one sixteen-year-old outcast. When Severin's Curse chose him as one of its latest victims, he is forced onto the same path as the Divines he resents. After losing three days of his memories to the Curse, Yun is thrown into a deadly trial called the First Vision. But where others are granted the Paths of venerable swordsmen and shadow assassins, he is slapped with the Path of a Servant — a weakling whose power depends entirely on proximity to his master. If only that master wasn't a shy divine beast that fled at the first sight of people. Including him. In short, Yun... was abandoned. Again and again. By his Clan. His mother. His sister. His so-called "master". But maybe, Yun doesn't need them. He never did. And so, Yun clawed his way into a power no other Divine has ever carried — one that shouldn't exist, born from a Path meant to make him weak. When the whole world denies your existence, who else can stubbornly assert it but you?

They said it was only a school lunch program. They lied. After joining the MBG Nutrition Program, Arga awakens a mysterious power connected to an energy no one fully understands. As secret experiments, human prototypes, and the shadowy Dominion Organization emerge from the darkness, Arga and his friends are drawn into a conflict far greater than they ever imagined. To save countless children from becoming living weapons, they must uncover the true source of this power before Dominion gains control of it. But with every answer they uncover, Arga moves closer to a terrifying truth: the energy growing inside him may become humanity's greatest hope... or its greatest threat.
