In the Kingdom of Astralis, where nobles rule with authority and magic shapes the fate of all, a young boy named Kael Valcrest, the second son of Count Aelric, is about to step into a destiny far beyond ordinary comprehension.

EXCERPT✨ “Take off the towel and come here,” he commanded, his voice a rasp, his eyes darker than I’d ever seen them. His breath was too calm; he watched every deliberate slow step I took like a predator ready to catch his prey, and all my senses loved it. My body trembled in anticipation of being caught, of being his prey. To be devoured entirely by his love and more “happy ending?” I asked, my own voice sounding strange in my ears, his lips parted, curving into a slow, predatory smile that sent a shiver racing down my spine, making my knees weaken as I stood there, the towel clutched loosely around my body. --------- I stood in the doorway, no longer breathing, no longer really inside my own body. My eyes felt too wide, too raw, too empty. Something cold crawled down my spine. My voice barely rose above a whisper. “Whose wedding?” Silence; thick enough to choke on. I stepped into the room, each movement slow, heavy, as if my heart had sunk into my stomach. “Damien. Alina.” My throat trembled. “Whose wedding?” Alina looked like she was about to cry. Her fingers shook as she picked up Damien’s phone. She pressed it into my hand with a trembling breath. “It’s Nathan.” The name punched the air out of me. My gaze dropped to the screen. A single headline stared back at me, brutally clear. Nathan Carter engaged to Claudia Ravensworth. Wedding in 8 weeks. A strangled gasp tore its way up my throat. The world blurred. My knees nearly buckled. My fingers clamped around the phone as if letting go would make it real. Heat rushed to my face; Cold crawled down my chest. Everything inside me cracked at once.

Shen Li was never meant to survive the imperial palace. In the story everyone believes in, she is nothing more than a minor character—replaceable, forgettable, destined to vanish quietly.

Her husband was assassinated in broad daylight, in front of everyone. In the heart of the capital, under the eyes of an empire that claimed to be a protector. The execution was swift, almost silent. Officially, it was called an accident. They spoke of betrayal, of necessity. She said nothing. She cried. For days. For weeks. Then one detail caught her eye: a poorly placed lie, an inconsistency that no one else noticed. She began to investigate, and the more she dug, the more the world she knew started to crack. It was not an accident. It was not a mistake. Her husband had not been killed by chance. The day she discovered the true reason behind his death… and the names of those who had given the order… she did not scream, she did not shout. She went to his grave, knelt in silence, and whispered: “Sorry, darling… but I don’t think I’ll behave in your absence.”

There, he learns that survival itself is the objective, with no rules, no guidance, and no time limit. Confronted by a Correction Entity created to eliminate those deemed incompatible, Kael is forced to run, adapt, and face the reality that the world is actively trying to erase him.

“In an age where knowledge cuts deeper than knives, Victoria is about to learn far more than is safe for any soul to bear.” Victoria and Robert were torn from the gentle dullness of their ordinary century and cast into a realm governed by proto-concepts—those ancient, unblinking truths from which life, death, and divinity themselves are carved. Proclaimed “Heroes” by a world too desperate to question its own choices, they were commanded to rise in strength, confront a Demon Lord, and deliver salvation to a land that had never been theirs. Robert donned the mantle with the fervour of a man stepping into destiny. Victoria… hesitated. And in that hesitation, something old—older than scripture, older than light—turned its gaze toward her. She felt its attention like a draft through a locked room. In a moment poised between terror and terrible understanding, she accepted its offer: a contract sealed in silence, a year of her life exchanged for a thing that should never have been permitted to exist. Not in this world. Not in any. She did not yet grasp that, in straying from the Hero’s ordained path, she had not merely shifted her fate— she had begun to unwrite the very scaffolding of her humanity. Now Victoria walks like a phantom through a world that has marched on without her— one year behind the celebrated Hero, yet burdened with an insight so sharp it threatens to cut her free from mortality itself. She can now trespass upon knowledge forbidden to scholars, sorcerers, or even those who stand at the pinnacle of human mastery. She commits the kind of acts whispered only of beings who have stepped beyond the human threshold… and never returned. And in a world built on primordial, immovable truths, one truth endures: Knowledge is power. But power, when mishandled, becomes a curse that devours its bearer— quietly, inevitably, like rot beneath embroidered silk.

Kaito Hoshino was never meant to be a fighter. Shy, awkward, and constantly pushed around at school, Kaito had learned one simple rule of survival: endure quietly and don’t stand out. Confidence was for other people. Strength belonged to monsters he only saw from afar. Everything changes when his mother leaves on a long business trip and sends him to stay with his cousin, James, for a month. At first, it’s just an awkward family visit—until Kaito accidentally witnesses James fighting. Clean movements. Calm control. Real skill. For the first time, Kaito doesn’t wish to be popular or feared. He just wants to stop being helpless. What begins as simple self-defense training slowly becomes something more. Through bruises, failures, embarrassment, and small victories, Kaito starts to change—not overnight, not magically—but step by painful step. Back at school, new friendships form. Old bullies grow cautious. Jealousy brews. Trust is tested. And beyond the school walls, something darker waits—worlds of violence, gangs, and fighters far stronger than anything Kaito can imagine. This is not the story of instant power. This is the story of earning strength, of growth through hardship, of losing fights and standing back up. And when the real monsters finally appear… Kaito Hoshino will have to decide what kind of fighter—and what kind of man—he wants to become. Main Themes Realistic growth & slow progression School life mixed with street combat Brotherhood, trust, and betrayal Comedy, awkward moments, and emotional depth Fighting skill earned through pain and effort Power gaps — losing is part of growth

Damian didn't escape the end of his world. He survived it. Reborn into the gilded cage of House Snow—a minor noble family on a backwater planet where magic is systematized and affinities are graded from F to SSS—he awakens with a shattered soul and the whispers of a forbidden power: the Monarch of Darkness System. In this world, he is Damian Snow, an unawakened, disappointing third son. But within him resides the cruel, calculating mind of a man who watched a planet die, fueled by a singular vow: to heal his soul, reclaim the devastating shadow affinity locked within it, and find the scattered companions who made his survival possible. Yet, his new home is no sanctuary. His stepmother's smile is as cold as her hidden magic, which reeks of necrotic light and a terrible secret tied to his mother's tomb. A world-spanning cult, the Shadow Vatican, moves in the shadows, perverting sacred light to craft an undead empire. Demons seep through rifts from dying worlds, and ancient powers slumber beneath the soil. Armed only with a child's body, a broken soul, and a System that brands him an unregistered anomaly, Damian must navigate a deadly game. He will manipulate arrogant heirs, unearth cursed relics hidden in filth, and trade bone-breaking pain for slivers of power. He will learn that to conquer the darkness without, he must first embrace the darkness within. This is the story of a Monarch's ascent from the ashes. It is a tale of ruthless action, bloody vengeance, twisted romance, and the faint, stubborn light of loyalty that refuses to be extinguished—even in the cruelest of hearts. Note: No AI used in the writing of this novel. Just pure fantasy brought to you to open your imaginations.
