The world had changed. Ability Users roamed the streets, welding their powers however they pleased. For those who cared about humanity, they were protectors, people who fought tooth and nail against its threats. But for those who didn't, they pillaged and plundered, forming gangs to serve their nefarious wishes. Kayden was once a young man without an ability. Living in Brinestone with his uncle and cousin, he did his best to live a decent life, attending school while doing everything he could to support his uncle. Everything was going smoothly for them, until eventually, things started to fall apart. It all started when a group of bandits kidnapped his cousin on their way home. Kayden did his best to fight against them, but it was useless. They were faster, stronger. In the end, he was overpowered. They took Stacy away, leaving him with only one brutal choice. Either make the money to save her life, or receive her back in pieces. He found himself cornered, unsure of what to do, untill, in the midst of his turmoil, salvation appeared. Tucked within a dark ally in his neighborhood, an ominous orange glowing crystal beamed. Kayden didn't hesitate. Spurred by greed, and a desire to save his cousin, he took the crystal, and absorbed the energy within. With it came the power of a beast… and a chance at rescuing Stacy from the clutches of death.

The modern age of human society had undergone an evolution that changed it forever. Mana had arrived on Earth, and with it, came a meteor shower that threatened to reduce humanity to nothing but rubble and debris. Earth's governments were thrown into chaos because of this, and many military units were deployed to protect the masses from what they could only assume to be the end of the world. Using the most advanced arsenal possessed by the various world military governments, the adverse effects of the meteor shower had been controlled to an incredible degree, protecting most of Earth's inhabitants from utter annihilation. There were countries that were destroyed, leaderships and citizens wiped from the face of the Earth. Reconstruction had to be done to bring the demolished landscapes back to their former glory. It seemed like everything had gone back to normal, however, that was far from the case. Months after the meteor shower incident, world renouned scientists dedicated their time to studying these strange crystalline meteorites. Years later, and something ground breaking had been discovered-abilities. These meteorites, they weren't actually meteorites, but crystals. Where they had come from was unknown and still being researched up till today. From the crystals came abilities that changed humanity forever. Those who could afford the crystals were fortuate enough to obtain strange powers from within. Fire, boulder, serpent, and many others. Many more years passed by, and more and more was being discovered about abilities and the crystals they came from. Everything seemed to be heading up after the phenomenon that nearly destroyed the Earth, but not everything was for the benefit of everyone. For many years, most were oblivious to the presence of abilities on Earth. It wasn't until an alien invasion occoured, that the information on abilities was made public. Strong ability users were needed to defend Earth against the Shales. The government, private and public corporations, and many others, they were all monetizing whatever crystals they could get their hands on, using it as a means of earning revenye from the populace. Those who were rich enough to purchase ability crystals could become ability users, while those who couldn't would simply remain as regular humans. Many rich families in the new world were able to obtain strong abilities for themselves and their children; the ones who would continue their lineage and glory once their parents are no more. In order to learn how to defend humanity from the invasion of the aliens, people from the ages of 16 were ordered to attend a military academy by the decree of the federal government of their respective countries. Failure to abide by this law was punishable by jail time. Kayden, a sixteen-year-old from a city known as Black Saber city. Having lost his parents at a very yoing age, he had to live with his single uncle and his cousin. Like many other teenagers his age, he desired to attend military school to learn how to fight against the Shales. However, being unable to afford an ability, his dreams of becoming powerful seemed like they would be crushed, but that all changed the day he had been given a system that allows him to unlock monsters by completing quests. On his path to evolve, he must face multiple challenges, complete quests and go on missions just to grow in strength. For in the current world, only the strong are regarded, while the weak are cast aside and forgotten. That was the general rule, the rule that governed everything that happened. From a crystal, came a power that changed his life. Now, he must do whatever it takes to save the people he loves and cares about. He must make sure that he doesn't loose the people he cares about once more.

"Don't try to stop me, unless you want to be my first victim." _____________ Blood wasn't merely just life, it was power, currency, and divine mandate. It was the thread that kept the fragile Empire afloat, and the tool by which the favoured lord over the feeble. Blood was known to all; feared by some, and coveted by others. Streets sang with pained screams, the glorious liquid trailing forth as rivers in the shadows. It was a tool of peril, and a beacon of hope. Nefaria was an Empire ruled by oppression, criminal organizations fanning flames of despair. Negligence clouded the King’s thoughts, uprooting him from the needs of the people. The seeds of corruption were quick to spread, consuming the tenebrous Empire like a gluttonous plague. In the midst of such treachery, a suffering youth strived consistently to beat the odds. Ezekiel Stormwing, a young adult with crippling responsibilities, toiled everyday to make ends meet. Living in the struggling West with his father, they laboured ceaselessly under the venomous gaze of malevolent fiends. The Abyssal Gang was a nefarious group. Their orders were sacred, wrath grousome. Death was the penalty for disobedience, none safe from its chilling embrace. Their leader, Raphael, was the most dangerous of them all, his temper unhinged, thoughts drastic. He forged his group through blood and sweat, climbing towering corpses to reach the top. It was a world of segregation, all moving to the will of avarice. The wealthy desired more, while the poor pleaded for so little. All chased after coveted dreams, uncaring to others around them. Life was ever moving, satiating the powerful and draining the weak. Everything was mechanical, predictable, untill eventually… it wasn't. On an occasion celebrating Nefaria’s past triumph, war erupted. It all started at the Castle. Following a sharp gust of wind, an unknown figure emerged, eyes sharp, powers suffocating. With him came the harbingers of war, the heralds of destruction. Vampires fought demonic creatures, painting their lightless Kingdom crimson. Houses burned to ash, lives were lost. It was an unexpected storm that drowned the weak, the survival of the fittest. In the midst of the chaos, Ezekiel Stormwing found himself caught in the crossfire, his life dangling away in a whirlwind of pain. In a desperate gamble to save his father, he wagered his life. Death coveted his soul, but just before his flame extinguished…it erupted, a shimmering power once sealed within him unlocked. With rejuvenated resolve, he defied faith. He manifested his desire, saving his father from certain doom. Now, after the war, his eyes settled on a new goal, one that would keep him ever close to the frigid gates of the afterlife. Will he succeed, or will destiny finally erase his existence?

“Please send me back to the past.” If he cannot not kill that person in this era, he just needs to go back to the past. The man used the “Great Regression Technique” to cross time, going back to the past he desired so much. The “Unrivaled Swordsman” who had lost everything, his family, friends, and life. This is his first step to taking his revenge.

Divine power or human power. It's not just about strength/power, but about the beliefs you hold within yourself regarding your view of life in terms of reality, mystery, conspiracy, science, history, and so on. War is often thought to arise from survival instincts, competition, resource struggles, or ideological differences. Philosophers like Sartre view war as a free human choice, while others see it as a natural impulse. And war is often considered noble by some philosophers because it forces humanity towards peace and dignity, despite its destruction. Life is a choice, but your choice is your responsibility.

For decades, humanity has lived in a world that isn't quite what it seems. Since the Great Awakening of 1952, magic, monsters, and people capable of supernatural feats have existed beneath the surface of ordinary society. And while most people remain blissfully unaware of the hidden world around them, eighteen-year-old Cyrus Moore is about to have that ignorance ripped away, whether he wants it to or not. After a devastating accident leaves him on the brink of death, Cyrus awakens to something impossible: a power he never knew that existed within him. Suddenly thrust into a world of sorcerers, supernatural creatures, secret organizations, and dangerous mysteries, Cyrus discovers that surviving is far more complicated than simply learning how to control his newfound abilities. Every answer seems to uncover another secret, and every step forward draws him deeper into a conflict that has been unfolding long before he was ever made aware of it. With enemies lurking in the shadows and allies whose true intentions aren't always clear, Cyrus must learn who he can trust while struggling to understand what is happening around him. But the deeper Cyrus ventures into this hidden world, the more he realizes that his awakening may not be all that it seems. Something is changing. Reality is beginning to crack at the edges. Old mysteries are beginning to surface. Dangerous forces are moving in the shadows. And the boundary between humanity and the supernatural is becoming increasingly fragile. Cyrus wanted an escape from an ordinary life. Instead, he awakened to a world where magic is real, monsters are hunting, and the greatest danger may be the truth waiting to be uncovered. The awakening has begun, and reality will never be the same….

I am Elias Croix-Manor, a perfectly ordinary man who definitely does NOT love his wife or son. Violet? Merely a woman whose safety, happiness, and midnight company concern me for entirely practical reasons. John? Just a troublesome boy who calls me Dad, cuddles me, and somehow makes me worry like an idiot. How inconvenient. Between the Golden City's unsettling mysteries, yellow mushrooms, Joan's haunting presence, and John's disturbing symptoms, I have enough problems. Love? Absolutely not. I simply protect my "family", cherish them, and would probably burn the world for them...Maybe? Nah. Coincidence, obviously. (No it's not!, He love s his me and my mother) Shut up John!

Deep in the crushing black of the Bermuda Triangle, eighteen-year-old Oliver and his demanding corporate father, Hank, are on a high-tech submarine expedition for Aetheos Dynamics. They are tracking erratic thermal and magnetic spikes at the bottom of the ocean. What they find in the freezing depths breaks every law of nature: a glowing, bioluminescent creature that shouldn't exist, drifting right before a violent underwater vortex rips their submarine apart. Directly above them, the ocean surface is dead calm. David is waiting out an unnaturally warm, eerie fog on a sailboat with his teenage daughter, Mia, and nine-year-old son, Lucas. Their peaceful family trip shatters when a massive, unseen force rams their hull from below, pulling them into the exact same nightmare. Dragged into a localized, primordial anomaly where the rules of physics and biology are rewritten, these two fractured families are about to collide.

THE MEMORY THEY FEAR Before the universe was born, he was the god who created all gods… then vanished without a trace. Reborn as a forgotten soul named Mirshad, he lived quietly—fighting battles no one saw, loving deeply, losing painfully, searching for answers he didn’t know existed.

And when he does— the universe will remember him. This is not just a story. It is a prophecy whispered through blood and lightning. A tale of a broken man rediscovering that he was never just a man… He was always everything. **Once you read his journey, you won't follow him— you'll believe in him.
