Prison of Eternal Sky: I am both a God and a Slave

Stranded. Enslaved. Lost. Mathew Dredon is stuck, in more ways than one, with no way home. The land around him is dangerous and strange, filled with divine artifacts and monsters born from darkness. Forced into a body that's not his own by a mysterious beings with godlike powers, Mathew is left to search for answers. He struggles relentlessly against the chains that bind him, any hope of returning home dwindling. Only by unlocking the secrets of this new land does he stand a chance of survival. Perhaps swallowing an unknowable cosmic entity was a questionable decision... Welcome to my first webnovel, Prison of Eternal Sky! Here are some things about the setting and story, but some go into soft-spoiler territory so I don't mind if you skip it. PoES is a Portal Fantasy/Isekai/Transmigration Novel, that isn't exactly classic fantasy (no elves or dwarfs, but maybe a dragon or two) It will dip into cosmic horror and grimdark a bit here and there, but won't be as dark as my other writings. There will be some direct references to the works of Lovecraft and Shakespeare here and there. In this setting, Gods are real and scheming, and the magic system and everything about it directly relates to each God. This hopefully will make it intuitive and easy to understand. This is NOT a progression fantasy story. The way the magic system works, there are not really clear ways to get stronger. Because of that progression will be non-linear, and the story will be more about discovering the lore and learning more about the world, and character development(And hopefully some cool character arcs) Now for some Q&A! (minor spoilers ahead) Q: How long is PoES? The story will go on for somewhere between 350 and 400 chapters, broken into 4 separate arcs (80+ chapters each). Q: How many POVs? At least 90% of the story will be told from the perspective of the MC, Mathew. There will be some other POVs in the story, usually to introduce a character or give extra context, but it won't be too often. Q: Is there a Female Lead? Technically, yes. Ophelia will be getting a lot of screen time. Her arc is also very integral to the story. Often however, she will be positioned as more of an antagonist and foil to the main character. Q: Is there Romance? There is no romance plot planned for Mathew, at least not one that results in an actual romance. There are going to be romantic relationships and plot points related to these relationships, but they will be for side characters, not the MC. Q: Is the Protagonist Over Powered? I would say technically no. Mathew himself, or the body he has, is quite competent in specific areas, and has some useful powers, but most of the crazy potential comes from the Catastrophe Mathew traps inside himself, and it is not something he will be able to access on a whim for most of the story. So my question to you is, do you consider Yuji to be overpowered because he has Sukuna trapped within him? if you do then I guess you could say Mathew is overpowered. Q: Why isn't this Progression Fantasy? The way the magic system works, there isn't a clear way to progress linearly in power. There are also not going to really be plots related to growing in power, its more a plot of discovery and mystery. In this world, either you are born with strong magic, are gifted strong magic by someone, or find some really strong magical artifact somewhere. You can gather magical gifts and artifacts, but each magical ability itself is locked firmly in the Tier System however, and will not change in potency.

Aetherion: Rise of the Forgotten Mage

A century ago, the world of Aetherion changed forever when ten mysterious Towers appeared across the world without warning. Soon after, monsters began pouring endlessly from the Towers, destroying cities, kingdoms, and entire civilizations. Humanity stood on the edge of extinction until powerful mages united to create the first Mage Towers, organizations dedicated to fighting the growing threat. From the endless battles against monsters emerged legendary figures known as Mage Lords, mages whose power surpassed ordinary limits. Under the leadership of the mysterious Mage Queen, humanity managed to survive and reclaim parts of the world. But even after a hundred years, the Towers still stand, monsters still emerge, and most of the world remains uninhabitable. Now, only a fraction of Aetherion is safe. In this harsh world where magical talent determines status, a boy named Will Grey lives as a failure. A student of the prestigious Aetherion Arcane Academy, Will possesses a large mana pool but suffers from a defect that prevents him from properly casting magic. Mocked by nobles and looked down upon by society, he struggles to survive while barely earning Academy Points needed to graduate from the academy. But unknown to the world, Will Grey dies. At the same moment, a man from modern Earth named Saito Ren dies trying to save someone during an accident. Once a former soldier turned corporate slave, Ren spent his life dreaming of becoming a hero like those from the stories he loved as a child. Instead of disappearing after death, he awakens before mysterious god-like beings who offer him a second chance at life. Ren asks for powers similar to the legendary abilities from his favorite fictional heroes, but the gods warn him that such powers are too dangerous to grant completely. Instead, they give him a special System that allows him to gradually unlock abilities through missions, growth, and combat. Moments later, Ren awakens inside Will Grey’s body. Thrown into the dangerous world of Aetherion, Ren discovers that the powers granted to him do not follow the world’s normal laws of magic. Unlike ordinary mages who rely on wands and incantations, Ren gains access to an ancient hand-sign combat style known as Ninjutsu, a forgotten experimental magic system abandoned long ago because normal mages could never use it effectively. But Ren can. As he slowly unlocks powers such as the Eclipse eye and advanced Magic abilities, he begins walking a path unlike any mage before him. Meanwhile, the world itself hides deeper secrets. At the center of global power stands the massive Central Tower, a floating city where the five Mage Lords govern humanity’s strongest military force while the immortal being known as Baal remains sealed at the highest point of the Tower. Far away, the legendary Mage Queen continues maintaining the seal on the mysterious Gate connected to an ancient forgotten catastrophe. And hidden within Will Grey’s body lies a secret connection to that Gate itself. As Tower missions, academy politics, noble conflicts, racial tensions, and ancient conspiracies begin surrounding him, Ren must survive in a world where monsters evolve endlessly and humanity’s fragile peace could collapse at any moment. Because somewhere within the Towers, something is still waiting.

Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension

(Chapters 1 to 40 are being edited right now) (Note: Reading Prologue is not necessary, hence why it's an Auxiliary Chapter) The Path to Immortality is elusive, and everyone wants to achieve it even if there's only a glimmer of hope. Tian Yongheng is a person who regained his past life memories after his family was brutally slaughtered. His extreme fear of death and desire to be undying have forced him to step onto this dangerous path of Immortal Cultivation. He is not a Chosen One who is the favored son of heavens, nor is he the reincarnation of a Immortal Emperor. Armed with a unique system of unknown origins and his obsession with immortality, he sets forth to carve a way of his own in this world where fate toys with one's very existence itself and cosmic horror-like beings devour universes for fun. However, can he really touch the illusory, eternal, and ethereal Immortal Dao that is everlasting and everchanging? Will he ever be able to reach the end of this grand path to eternity, establishing himself as a myth and beyond? or will he also drown in the long river of history just like many others? ------- The background settings and world building of this story are greatly inspired by Top Tier Providence, Secretly Cultivate for a Thousand Years. the main characters are also pretty similar, so if you like stories where the MC is a hidden powerhouse who, despite being hidden, is still known across the world, then you can give it a try. Please be patient while reading, as this is my first time writing a novel and don't hesitate to point out any mistakes I do in the comments. Also, I'm not a native of China, so there are probably going to be a lot of mistakes in names and history and stuff, please bear with it. Note: English is not my first language and the cover image is not mine. At the end of every week, Sunday GMT+8, 1 extra chapter will be released per 100 Power Stones, and at the end of every month, 1 extra chapter will be released per 10 Golden Tickets.

Chaos and Order - A Multiverse Fanfic

Bred to be humanity’s Messiah. Betrayed into becoming its greatest Demon. Kai Stormborn died after exacting revenge. But death could not claim him. Reborn in the Primordial Tower. A battleground where Chaos and Order wage war. And Kai? He is neither. He is something far worse, carrying a Glitch — a forbidden anomaly that lets him devour magical creatures, assimilate their abilities, and evolve. To ascend beyond mortality, Kai must consume worlds, crush their champions, and rewrite their fates. He bends the Harry Potter timeline to his will. He manipulates the Great Houses of Game of Thrones like pawns. He fuses the very realities of Demon Slayer, Bleach, and more into his domain. His Breathing Style warps the laws of Reality Marbles. His mind becomes an Artificial Intelligence. His spirit wields the Will of D. Dumbledore fears him. The Akatsuki hunt him. The Gotei 13, the Warlords, the Jedi—all have stood in his way. All have fallen. Kai no longer walks as a mere Contestant—he is ascending into something Eldritch. Corpses stack like monuments in his wake and Timelines fracture as he upends the lores of the worlds. He does not follow Chaos. He does not obey Order. He bends Reality to his will. This is not a story of redemption. It is the legend of a demonic being who rewrote the rules of existence itself. But can you stomach what comes next? *************** No Harem. You can also try my new fanfic: Dr Blessed - In MHA With Lord Of Mysteries System, to read about Luke who has a Quirk to bestow Quirks upon others, along with Beyonder-powers from three Pathways! *************** For Patre0n and Discord links, check out Demonic Resurrection novel's synopsis.
