First Contact, with intelligent life. A Subject that peaked the curious, and concerned the cautious. They were right though... The Cautious I mean, for nothing but War was born. ...And War breathed for centuries. Technology advanced, Man possessed abilities which let them rage. Monsters, Collosal and minuscule, held the elements and bared concepts to form. ...Then war slumbered. Yet whom... Has slept forever?

Two hundred and fifty years ago, the apocalypse descended and with it the Game Origin Ascension Domain.

Your entire worth is tied to your mana affinity and the Origin Talent you awaken upon your first time entering the Domain. ---- Caelus Kross. He was a transmigrator stuck at the absolute bottom of the barrel with an E-Rank mana affinity and a seriously terrible reputation.

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he lived however he pleased. A spoiled noble brat who never faced consequences. Until the night everything changed. What should have been a celebration turns into a nightmare, and in the blink of an eye, he finds himself standing in the middle of the Great Svaron War — a catastrophe fought four hundred years ago, where entire continents collided and countless lives were erased. This was no glorious war of heroes. Lands were stripped bare, cities reduced to graves, and everything living became food for vultures. Men, beasts, monsters... none were spared from the true scourge of war. Out there, his name, title, and bloodline mean nothing. Survival is the only thing that matters. Thrown into an age of death and ruin, he must either fight... or be swallowed by the battlefield like everyone else. Will he fall, or does fate roll a dice.

Power built the Murad empire. Blood secured it. Betrayal nearly destroyed it. Across India, New York, and beyond, Sohan Kadeon Murad reigns as one of the most feared men in the underworld. CEO of eight global empires and supreme leader of the Obsidian Triad, he rules with calculated brutality. His enemies vanish. His name commands silence. Yet even the darkest king had a weakness. His wife, Riyana. And their only daughter— Lilith Mahira Baneva. Born as the final heir. The true owner of everything. When greed consumes Sohan’s own cousins, a carefully orchestrated attack shatters the Murad family. A truck collision meant to eliminate Riyana and six-year-old Lilith leaves Riyana missing and presumed dead. Lilith survives—but her mind does not. Sohan unleashes hell on those responsible, wiping out bloodlines in a storm of vengeance before being imprisoned for ten years. His final command to his eight sons: No war among yourselves. Protect your sister. Keep her away from the darkness. While the brothers rise into powerful men—ruthless, disciplined, and loyal—Lilith grows up in a mental asylum, her brilliant mind trapped in the innocence of a child. Unknown to her brothers, someone close ensures she never heals, poisoning her recovery with damaging medication to keep her fragile… and unfit to rule. At sixteen, she returns home. Beautiful. Quiet. Mischievous. Broken. The empire legally belongs to her—but the world sees only a shattered girl holding pieces of herself together. Then comes the man powerful enough to rival the Murads. The feared leader of The Dominion Apex—half Russian, half American, Indian by blood. A king among kings. Cold. Strategic. Merciless. During a high-stakes alliance meeting, a single moment changes everything. He sees Lilith Mahira Baneva. And instead of weakness, he sees something no one else dares to look for. He takes her. What begins as possession slowly shifts into something far more dangerous—an obsession neither of them expected. In her silence, he finds calm. In his darkness, she finds protection. But beneath the fragile surface of the shattered heiress lies something waiting. Healing. Memory. Power. Will Lilith Mahira Baneva rise to reclaim the empire written in her blood? Will the ruthless king fall for the girl the world underestimated? Or will secrets, betrayal, and war tear apart what remains of the Murad legacy? In a world ruled by monsters, the most dangerous throne belongs to a broken queen.

Lina Chen wakes from a coma with her engagement ring, her ex-boyfriend's face in her mind, and no memory of the past two years. To her shock, a ring adorns her finger—not the one her ex gave her. A pair of twins call her "mama." And a devastatingly handsome CEO, Ethan Blackwood, claims to be her husband. She doesn't recognize any of them. Terrified and disoriented, Lina rejects this strange new life and returns to her family and her ex-boyfriend, Ryan—the man she believes she was about to marry. They welcome her with open arms. But something is wrong. Ryan is unusually close to her best friend, Chloe. Her parents dodge every question about Ethan. And no one can explain why she has a scar on her wrist or why she flinches at the sight of stairs. Then the memories begin to surface in fragments. A restraining order against Ryan. Chloe's hand on her back—pushing. A letter Lina wrote before the coma: "If I forget, find me. Don't give up." Lina secretly reconnects with Ethan and the twins. He doesn't pressure her to remember. He simply shows her evidence—videos, documents, a diary—that paints a horrifying picture: her coma wasn't an accident. Her memory loss was induced. And the people she trusts most are the ones who erased her. Now Lina must pretend she's still lost while piecing together the truth. Because the closer she gets to remembering, the closer someone gets to silencing her forever. She thought she woke to a nightmare. But the real nightmare is the life she's desperate to forget.

“Doing the wrong thing for the right reason… never ends well for anyone.” Seven great races ruled the continent of Eldarion. Humans weren’t among them. To the world, mankind was nothing more than background noise, as insignificant as a breath of air, as laughable as a failed joke of creation. A race with no promise. No power. No future. Tyler was born into that world—a world where every “hero of humanity” was fated to fall before they could rise. So he abandoned the path of heroes entirely. He chose the road stained in shadows. He chose the power no sane soul would touch. He chose to become a demon— not for glory, but for survival. His purpose was simple: Ascend as the Demon King. Stand as a monstrous shield when the true invaders finally tear into their continent. And he succeeded. He rose higher, darker, and stronger than any being before him. But power has a price. A price he only understood when it was far too late. For in climbing toward salvation, He became the very abomination he once swore to destroy— The Desecrator. And the world whispered: “There is no lesser or greater evil. There is only evil.” Yet a more profound truth lingered in the dark: “Because sometimes, only one Evil can devour another.” *** Discord - https://discord.gg/4xbt5Nwrtn *** #Yandere_MC #Complex_Characters #No_Harem #Dark #Rare_Bloodline #Magic #Slowburn #Fated_Love #Demons #Dragons #Otherworlders #Runic_Sorcery #Evil_FL

I spent eight years fighting cancer. Lost my hair, lost my strength, and eventually… lost the fight. And just as the darkness took me... Ding! {Cronos Protocol initializing… Injecting Affinity: Time … Innate Affinity detected… INFINITY?!} So yeah. I died, got isekai’d, and immediately broke the System so badly it started arguing with me. Too late, buddy. For I am alive! And not bald! And I'm gonna make it count. Even got a cosmic Affinity no one’s supposed to have, cool Time Magic, and Infinite Mana Regen. Which is good, because the world is collapsing faster than my old immune system. Because apparently… Eldritch monsters are straight-up falling from the sky. Gods are answering prayers a little too literally. And a 3000-year-old organization is hunting me because I “stole” two of their Chimeras. (Yeah, I’m keeping them.) While I… just wanted to have fun. Nah, I didn’t die of cancer and got isekai’d just to roll over for fate again. Let come who may… I’ll beat them all the same.

What if the only way to save the world… was to break it? Dominic grew up worshiping the Monarchs and the Mage Emperor—the legendary team who ended a five-hundred-year war and forged an age of peace. But peace is a lie. Beneath it, corruption festers—woven into thrones, laws, and the very order meant to protect the world. The system isn’t failing. It was built this way. As Dominic’s faith collapses, so does his restraint. This world cannot be saved. It must be broken. To change it, he will have to tear down everything he once believed in—and risk becoming something far worse than the evil he seeks to destroy.

A transmigrator in *The Boys* universe. An original character who knows nothing about canon and can control blood. An attempt to be a hero in a world where that word has long since lost its meaning.

Everyone who gets dropped into the world of Kung Fu Panda ends up in Tai Lung's body. Everyone. Not me. I woke up as a two-meter wall of muscle and fat with a goose for a dad, a blacksmith's hammer for a hobby, and absolutely zero interest in kung fu. My previous life was a forgettable stretch of office work, video games, and bones that snapped if I looked at them wrong. This life? I had a body that could lift a ton, a father who made the best noodles in the Valley of Peace, and a comfortable routine I had zero intention of disrupting. Then I accidentally destroyed the Jade Palace gates, breathed fire in front of a thousand witnesses, and got a thousand-year-old tortoise pointing his wrinkled finger at my face. Apparently, I'm the Dragon Warrior now. I didn't ask for this. I don't want a Golden Scroll. I don't want to train under a red panda with a grudge and a gift for targeting sensitive anatomy. And I definitely don't want to share a roof with five kung fu masters who'd like nothing better than to watch me fail. But with a bandit crisis growing outside the valley, a mysterious threat lurking on the horizon, and Master Oogway smiling like he knows something I don't — it looks like my quiet life is over. At least the noodles are still good. ---
