apocalypse

In the year 124 of Zhepher’s calendar, the sky split in two. A white scar stretched across the heavens, and the world of Athea began to change—quietly at first, as if pretending nothing had happened. In the second capital of Xherns, Bhavalia, life continues in celebration, laughter, and ignorance. But not everyone chooses to look away. Reema Fhernox is one of the strongest Xherns alive. Gifted beyond measure, she sees the world as something that can be fixed through action, will, and force. To her, hesitation is weakness—and silence is unacceptable. But beneath the calm of everyday life, something is wrong. Xer, the energy that binds reality itself, begins to behave differently. Ancient systems stir. And above it all, the scar in the sky remains unchanged—watching. At her side stands Ahjer, a priestess bound to the sanctuary, calm where Reema is restless, and silent where Reema demands answers. Between them lies an unspoken promise, and questions neither of them fully understand. As unseen forces begin to shift, and the line between stability and collapse grows thinner, Reema will be forced to confront a truth she never considered: Some answers do not lead to salvation. They lead to change. And change always has a cost.

The world follows a structured path of cultivation, where power is gained through discipline, balance, and adherence to established laws. Every sect, every technique, and every realm exists within a system that has remained unchanged for generations. Yet beneath that order, something begins to take shape that does not belong to it. It has no origin that can be traced, no identity that can be defined, and no form that remains constant. Driven by a simple instinct to grow, it consumes what lies before it and reconstructs what it takes, turning death into function and territory into extension. What begins as a mindless anomaly gradually develops awareness, and from awareness comes the ability to calculate, adapt, and act with purpose. Unlike cultivators who are bound to methods and limits, this existence refines itself through continuous change. It does not follow techniques, nor does it rely on established paths. Instead, it observes, learns, and alters itself in response to every obstacle, gradually bending the very systems that were never meant to contain it. As its influence spreads, the stability of the world begins to fracture. Sects that once stood firm are forced into conflict, territories become uncertain, and survival is no longer determined solely by strength or mastery. What was once hidden can no longer remain so, and the presence of something beyond the known order begins to reshape the course of everything above it. In a world defined by limits, this existence continues to grow without them, and its evolution moves toward a future that nothing within the system was prepared to face.

What is a monster? Humans normally define monsters as fear inducing, bloodthirsty creatures bent on destruction. But to Noah? Monsters were the humans who despised him without justifications, who taught him to loathe himself just for being human. Life was hell, a hell that was surrounded by “monsters”. Until one day, the world changed. Humans were suddenly graced by a Divine voice, one that warned of their extinction, but also promised them power. They were bestowed with a system, a system to aid their fight for survival, to survive against monsters. And when humanity was given that chance to survive, Noah chose to walk a path of a tamer, to befriend the very monsters that were threatening the humans' extinction. As he tamed the monsters, learned from them, bonded with them, shedding the last remnants of what it was to be human. Noah began to wonder, is it wrong to be considered a monster? Feedback is definitely appreciated, good or bad, let's make the story good together. I would like to note that the main character isn’t completely ruthless, he's more chaotically neutral. There’s a lot of good stories out there with ruthless, bloodthirsty, cold hearted main characters so if that’s what your interest in then I’m sorry to disappoint you.

They stole his future and crippled his body. Now, he’ll rewrite the history in blood. Damon was on the verge of greatness, first in line to claim Bloodreign, the legendary artifact said to grant unmatched power in Earth Online, the world’s first fully immersive VR game. But his best friend betrayed him, stealing the item, and leaving Damon broken, crippled and nearly deleted. Kicked from the guild, mocked by the community, and trapped in a weak, crippled body, he was forgotten until his last desperate attempt somehow brought him back in time to the day when it all began. Now Damon was back and he knew what he was going after. A hidden lineage. A cursed class. A bloodline sealed since the dawn of the multiverse. Last time he played fair. Last time he trusted. This time he would hunt and devour. With years of knowledge of every exploit, every secret quest, every bugged mechanic, he will climb straight to the top. Armed with the blood of the first Vampire King, he was an apex predator now who stood at the very top. However, unbeknownst to him, a catastrophe lurks in the shadows. Damon finds out that the game itself might not be as simple as it seemed and the entire future of the humanity might depend on this game.

༺❘✦ Ryo thought moderating online fan drama about Llewellyn, the world's most famous hero, was the worst part of his job... What he didn't expect was the System deciding his online arguments counted as combat experience and dropping him into a magical apocalypse with Llewellyn himself! He also didn't expect the Internet to start shipping them! And he certainly didn't expect the System's idea of "combat partner" to involve an absurd amount of physical contact disguised as Healing Bonuses, shared body heat, Dungeon environments that look like dates, or being randomly teleported onto Llewellyn's lap! Llewellyn might be the strongest person on Earth, but he has no one to watch his back. Luckily for him, Ryo has had to deal with his unhinged online following for years… and he is more than willing to get his hands dirty in person. ━━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━━ Content Note: The rating goes up as the story progresses!

NEW CHAPTER EVERY FRIDAY! --- The Earth was hit by a meteor, and it caused a mysterious virus to spread. The virus caused people to turn into zombies, and Luca Weisman lost his parents when he was sixteen to zombies as well. His other relatives also died because of zombies, that was the reason why he despised zombies very much, and he only had himself in the chaotic world that was about to end because of the catastrophe. He sealed himself off without letting anyone enter his territory, but one day, a strange delivery guy suddenly tried to knock on his door and wanted to come in. It turned out that the person was the annoying player he knew in the game, but one thing he didn't know was the person's true identity. Other feelings developed from the initial annoyance and hatred, but would those feelings still be the same after he found out the person's true identity?

Chicago, Illinois— 2016. Adrian Carter’s life was ordinary: school, friends, a girlfriend he thought he understood. Then, without warning, the world collapsed. A psychotic outbreak sweeps through the city, turning people into sadistic killers— creatures that hunt without reason, morality, or mercy. Streets flood with blood. Survival becomes instinct. Trust becomes a liability. But the infected aren’t Adrian’s greatest threat. Lila—his yandere ex-girlfriend—is still alive. Still watching. And she has her own violent ideas of love, protection, and ownership. Trapped in a city gone mad, Adrian must fight to survive the outbreak, navigate a world drenched in blood, and cling to what remains of his humanity—before he loses himself completely… or becomes something Lila refuses to let escape. Viewer Discretion Advised: this story contains graphic violence, psychological tension, and intense character conflicts.

[Congratulations, Host! You have defeated the 777th Hero Party!] [Eternal Quest has been completed!] [Final scenario is unfolding!] “Even… if I can’t kill you… I will rid this world of your existence!“ Maximus, the hero teetering at the edge of death, yelled. In contrast, the Demon Lord just waved his hands dismissively. He had been bored out of his mind either way. Even if the hero succeeded, he would do his enemy the greatest favor. As a bright flash enveloped the Demon King, he just closed his eyes and smiled. “Time to go home.” Aiden was already planning what he would do once he got home. Getting a new console was a must, and premium snacks. Oh, and he would get his parents a condo. However, as the flash faded away, the sight that greeted him wasn’t of the Earth he remembered. The place was ruined! Monsters lurked everywhere. Buildings were crumbled and turned to dust. All buildings but one. The very same one he was standing on. “What the hell is going on here?“ [Congratulations, Host! As a reward for your excellent performance, you have inherited the Apocalypse Landlord system!] “Eh? I went from a demon lord to a property manager!?“ discord server for character arts and more: https://discord.gg/vJdu2DqnwR

In the autumn of the 28th year of the apocalypse, Gu Xi and her companions finally eliminated the last Zombie Emperor in the world. That night, at the celebration banquet held at the base, Gu Xi took the fine wine handed to her by a companion, and then... she collapsed headfirst. When she woke up again, it was already the 58th year of the apocalypse. 30 years had passed, and the beautiful world that Gu Xi had once yearned for and for which she had fought tooth and nail did not appear. Although human society had restored order, a new food crisis arose—after plants and animals underwent a second mutation, a bizarre energy that the human body could not digest, absorb, or excrete through metabolism suddenly appeared within them. And she, Gu Xiaoxi, also had a brand-new identity—a refugee girl picked up from the ruins by a group of pioneers. The newly-minted undocumented girl, Gu Xiaoxi: No more fighting and killing, no more shouldering the future of all humanity; just needing to cultivate one hundred acres of wasteland to achieve the simple dream of eating well, drinking well, and getting a peaceful night's sleep is pretty good. Later, she discovered that her former companions had all become powerful figures, while she, the former apocalyptic hero, had become a person who was never recorded in history. Gu Xiaoxi: ?

To her surprise, this time around, her whole family became elites. Before the apocalypse—— Bai Yifan asked his sister, "Did you dream the apocalypse is coming? What happened to me?" "You didn’t run as fast as mom and dad, but it's alright – better to keep it in the family!" Bai Xiqin responded calmly. Bai Yifan: ??? After the apocalypse—— Funeral Master Bai Mother waved her hand casually, and the Zombie was roasted crispy on the outside and tender on the inside by the Thunder Ability. Bai Mother frowned instinctively, "I really want to give them a makeup touch-up!" The forensic doctor Bai Family Grandma calmly dug out a Crystal Core, "Its lower jaw protrudes, clearly an underbite, even with makeup it wouldn't look good." Bai Yifan shook while holding a sack to collect Crystal Cores, bravely holding back tears.
