[Disclaimer: This will be a story with a slow start. This story does not just follow one Main Character. Some books may follow different MCs and converge to a major event for another Book.] His story is known as the greatest motivational story to all. Dylan Ford was nothing but a homeless orphan. In the streets of New York, he had survived through countless fights and dangerous encounters with the mafia. With his fists and wits, he overcame both adversity and poverty. However, at the peak of his success, his brother and his most trusted aid, Dale Ford, plotted against him. This meticulous plot which involved many of his brother's enemy claimed his life. In his dying moments, a flash of white lightning devoured him. Suddenly, he found himself waking up in an unfamiliar world with a brand new body.

He soon discovers that he reincarnated in a world with special powers such as Martial Spirits, Innate Energy and Avatars accompanied by powerful beasts called Mystical Beasts! Things he thought only existed in novels! But what shocks him even more is that unlike normal reincarnations in novels, his was completely different. How can a body contain two souls?

“Everyone, go all out! We can kill him if we combine all our power!” The Rank 12 General roared at the billion warriors gathered behind him, their target a single young man standing alone amidst the battlefield. “Power Surge! Fury Rise!” The world trembled. Billions of attacks erupted simultaneously, each carrying enough destructive power to annihilate cities and shatter mountains. They converged upon the young man with dark raven hair and golden eyes, swallowing his figure beneath an overwhelming storm of destruction. Yet... He didn't even blink. Carl calmly reached into his deck of cards and drew a single card. The Death Card. His golden eyes glowed with a calm yet overwhelming brilliance as he slowly raised one hand toward the incoming attacks and the billion warriors behind them. Then he spoke a single sentence. “Be gone.” The next moment... The world responded. Every attack vanished. The billion warriors disappeared without leaving behind even a speck of dust. Carl lowered his hand and calmly surveyed the empty battlefield before letting out a disappointed sigh. “Another weak army...” If the heavens truly wanted him dead, they should at least send everything they had. Maybe then... He would finally be forced to fight. --- Carl was once nothing more than a slum boy with no memories of who he was or where he came from. In a world ruled by powerful Awakened, advanced technology, dangerous dungeons, and beings capable of destroying entire cities with their strength, Carl understood one simple truth... Strength was the only guarantee of survival. He didn't dream of becoming a hero. He had no grand ambition to defy the heavens. He simply wanted to become strong enough that no one could ever decide whether he lived or died. But as a child born in the slums, opportunities were scarce. Becoming an Awakened seemed like nothing more than an impossible dream... Until fate finally noticed him. A mysterious half-Awakened took an interest in Carl and introduced him to a dungeon raid. It should have been the beginning of his journey. Instead, it became a death sentence. Betrayed by the very people who brought him into the dungeon, Carl was thrown into the abyss and left to die. But fate had made one mistake. Carl didn't die. Instead, at the bottom of the abyss, something ancient awakened within him. An unknown legacy. A legacy that granted him the SUPREME BATTLE CARD DECK. A deck containing cards so terrifying that each one possessed the power to rewrite the course of history. From the moment Carl obtained the deck, his destiny changed completely. Rising from the abyss, he began his journey from the lowest point of society toward the absolute pinnacle of existence. With limitless potential to grow stronger and a battle card deck that defied every known law of common sense, Carl would never again allow himself to be betrayed, discarded, or treated as someone disposable. Those who had thrown him away would eventually regret it. Those who stood above him would eventually look up. And those who sought to erase him... Would learn exactly how terrifying the Supreme Battle Card Deck could be. But an ancient legacy of such overwhelming power could never remain unnoticed. Soon, the world would come for Carl. Then the strongest beings in the universe. Then the heavens themselves. They would scheme against him. Hunt him. Try to kill him before he could grow any further. Carl's response? Let them try. If the world wants a fight... Let them come. If the universe wants to erase him... Then give it everything it has. Because the Card Sovereign would never kneel to the heavens. He would never become someone's pawn. And he would never allow himself to be discarded again. After all... As long as one card remains unplayed, the game is not over.

In a distant past, the seven Ancestral Beasts clashed, and the blood they spilled rained onto the entire plane, infecting humans and animals alike, making them part of their powerful bloodlines.

Yet, when Liam’s Ancestral Bloodline awakened, he uncovered a connection between his family’s killers and the Dragon King, a connection that could expand his revenge to the entire Kingdom. -------------------- Discord link: https://discord.gg/mefzf3aQJ8 Instagram: eocnovels X: @EoCNovels Cover artist: https://digitalrowye.com

Two years after the fall of the Scarlet Helix, Japan prepares to showcase its greatest innovation yet: the Sky Guardian, a floating airship laboratory designed to revolutionize medicine and industry. Invited as a guest of honor, Akio Hukitaske, the pharmacist-turned-reluctant hero, boards the vessel alongside his closest allies-Raka, Riki, Rumane, Hikata, and the young coder Akazuchi. For once, it seems the world is finally turning toward hope. But hope is fragile. When a chilling broadcast from a terrorist cell calling themselves the Red Smoke Bandits claims that a deadly airborne pathogen has been unleashed, panic consumes the airship. Passengers are quarantined, bombs are discovered, and the line between friend and foe begins to blur. Akio's sharp instincts reveal a darker truth: the "infection" is not biological, but chemical-an elaborate hoax meant to cloak something far more sinister. As mercenaries storm the Sky Guardian, Akio is thrust into a nightmare of false flags, betrayals, and chemical warfare. Among the frightened crowd lurks Matahiko, a journalist turned mastermind whose allegiance lies with the reborn Yaka Lab. His goal is not ransom, but proof: that fear itself can be weaponized on a global scale. With the world watching and hundreds of lives hanging in the balance, Akio must confront his deepest fears, push his body past breaking, and face the terrifying possibility that the Scarlet Helix has never truly died. The sky burns. The world trembles. And one pharmacist must decide: how much more of himself can he give before there's nothing left? (ALREADY ON WATTPAD, NOW ON WEBNOVEL)

In the shadow of grand stone keeps and the fading whispers of an ancient, unyielding kingdom, SOVEREIGN OF NIHILITY explores a world where power is measured not by divine favor or material wealth, but by the weight of silence. As high-society elegance masks a decaying, frost-bitten reality, a dangerous path of erasure begins to unfold. It is a slow, atmospheric descent into a realm where existence itself is a fragile illusion, and those who command the void must risk losing every memory, tie, and trace of their own humanity to claim absolute dominion.

A talented individual who is respected by many and welcomed everywhere… Not at all! A bloodthirsty battle fanatic who knows no defeat! However, he is usually kind and gentle, as well as a great boss and a subordinate who does not make a fuss! That’s what people think of me, but in reality, I’m a sickly person who struggles to get by in everyday life, let alone in battles. Due to excessive stress, I vomit blood. If I’m shocked, I vomit blood. Even if I’m slightly startled, I vomit blood. For no reason at all, I vomit blood… No, it’s about time everyone realized that I’m weak, but for some reason, they continue to have a strange misunderstanding about me. So… I used to be strong—no, I still am, but for some reason my body was damaged and I can no longer use 100% of my skills? Is it because my body will be unable to withstand it? And the reason for it is… a spell? A curse? This is ridiculous! ___ This is an upload of a PDF I have. I don't know who the original translator is, but I'm pretty sure it's MTL. I will make small modifications to each chapter to correct some things that may be confusing.

Jason has all but given up on his own life, but things start to change when he wakes up in another.

#VillainDad #CuteProtagonist #Ghosts #Misunderstanding #Transmigration #SmartMC Mira realized two things the moment she woke up in the body of a nameless orphan in a fantasy novel: 1. She is a disposable "shrimp" destined to die in the crossfire of the main characters. 2. She is the only person in this world who can see the screaming, terrifying ghosts that haunt every corner of the empire. Tortured by the wails of the dead, Mira finds only one source of silence: Duke Kaelus von Nacht. Known as the "Dark Lord" and the "Emperor's Sword," Kaelus is a man so ruthless and soaked in bloodlust that even the ghosts are terrified to go near him. To the world, he is a monster. But to Mira, he is a walking, talking pair of noise-canceling headphones. Desperate for a good night's sleep, Mira clings to him, acting like a naive, affectionate child to secure her place by his side. She succeeds, but she miscalculated. Kaelus didn't adopt her out of kindness. He needed a disposable child to act as 'live bait' for the assassins targeting him. Now named Seraphina, she must navigate a deadly game of survival. She thinks she is using him as a ghost shield. He thinks she is a fearless prodigy who loves him. As Seraphina munches on poison berries and naps through ambushes to avoid seeing spirits, the cold-blooded Duke starts to ask the wrong questions. "Why does she only sleep when I am holding her?" "Why does she stare into space with such disdain?" "Is it possible... that I am a good father?" Spoiler: He is not. But he’s about to destroy an entire kingdom because someone woke her up. --- ### Excerpt "Your Highness, the Archduke," the aide whispered, trembling hard to cover his laughter from bursting out. "The child... she is clinging to your leg again." Kaelus looked down. The tiny creature known as Seraphina was attached to his calf like a barnacle, drooling on his pristine military trousers. "She is fearless," Kaelus murmured, misinterpreting her desperate need for his ghost-repelling aura as familial affection. "The assassins are approaching, yet she seeks comfort only in the eye of the storm. She is the perfect bait." Seraphina, currently trying to avoid eye contact with a headless ghost hovering three feet away, squeezed her eyes shut. 'Just don't move. If I let go, the headless guy will ask me where his nose is again.' "Sir," the aide hesitated. "She's... eating your cloak." "Let her eat," Kaelus commanded, drawing his sword. "Whatever she wants, she gets. Except for freedom."

The Great Tapestry of Fate withered, its string now lay shattered, broken, dull and undone. For in a pale white world, a shadow died.

He lived a life. Not a full one. But a life. A very successful, yet dangerous and thankless one. He kept the world safe, even if how he did it was frowned on. Then he died, and he got transported to a place he knew intimately. It was certainly an odd choice, that's for sure, but it went based on his subconscious. Now, he's Max Thunderman, with perfect knowledge of what comes ahead, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to make sure what should have happened, happens. From living life as a villain while truly being in-between, to living as a hero while truly being an in-between, he was always living half a dozen lives. Keeping hundreds of lies at the same time. He was capable, prepared, and ruthless. No holds barred, no lines in the sand. He wasn't who this life belonged to originally, he was the furthest from it. He was A New Max Thunderman.
