But then again— who ever said pain is born in ways we can understand?

Kieran Akane logs into Parallel and makes one choice that changes everything: he picks vampire. Power comes with hunger. Survival comes with restraint. And the system offers no guidance on how to balance either. Kieran doesn’t chase glory, titles, or control. He moves carefully, learns quietly, and leaves consequences behind him. Towns notice. Factions keep records. The system watches—sometimes too closely. As the world deepens and the rules begin to fray, strength stops being something you gain and starts becoming something you endure. Parallel isn’t about winning the game. It’s about what survives when the rules stop behaving. If you like this novel check out Lucid's Nightmare.

In a world drowned in endless war—where the strong devour the weak and mercy is a forgotten myth—power is the only law. A child is born on the frontline and the dead erupt in screams that never end. Wails claw through the battlefield, echo through graves, and crawl across the land, freezing every living soul. No blessing. No prophecy. Just a pulse of soul energy that shatters the land and chills every heart. He will consume souls. Kill without mercy. And fear will spread wherever his name is spoken.

In a world broken by an ancient disaster, humans rule and beasts are enslaved. Humans dominate through mana and matrices, refined into rigid systems that decide status, survival, and worth. Beasts live beneath them, bound by collars and chains, their strength reduced to raw Instinct and obedience. Two races. Two paths. One order that was imposed. Until something changes. A hundred years ago, a meteor tore through the sky, carrying a dragon’s roar and a destiny that did not belong to this world. What fell was not whole, and what survived was never meant to remain divided. A human child is born in the most oppressed of places. But something inside him is wrong. His instincts push him to act when others hesitate. Power around him fails in unfamiliar ways. And neither human Matrix nor beast Instinct fully claims him, as if something essential has been displaced rather than lost. As he grows, he is drawn toward Scars, places where the world itself has been damaged, and toward echoes that feel distant yet intimately his. Each step forward brings fragments of understanding, never enough on their own, always pointing elsewhere. Every advance forces a choice: submit, break, or become something the world cannot classify. This is a story of survival in a world built on hierarchy. Of power born from failure rather than perfection. And of an identity shaped by absence as much as presence. In a world that enslaves beasts and controls humans, something divided has begun to move. And when what was scattered begins to return, this world will no longer be enough. ================================== Discord: https://discord.gg/3q2GJdk27D
