apocalypse

[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

For three years, Eternal Mecha Online had an impossible limit. 99% World Completion. Every hidden boss was defeated. Every secret uncovered. Every mystery solved. Yet no player had ever reached 100%. Until Lam Huy Trường did. The moment the progress bar finally reached completion, a strange message appeared on his screen— A single question. If you could become a villain in the game… who would you choose? Half as a joke, he chose the most infamous figure in the entire lore. The Mad Professor. The genius responsible for humanity’s greatest technological breakthroughs. The man whose inventions created legendary mechs… and countless disasters. The villain destined to die at the hands of his own experiments. Then the screen went white. When Lam Huy Trường opened his eyes again, the war had already begun. Monsters the size of skyscrapers roamed the world. Humanity survived only inside fortified cities protected by crude early-generation mechs. And he had awakened— inside the body of the man history feared most. Armed with modern scientific knowledge and memories of the game's future timeline, the professor realizes one terrifying truth: Humanity was never supposed to win. But this time, the so-called villain intends to rewrite the rules of war. Because if the world is doomed anyway— then he will become the engineer of humanity’s evolution. Even if history must call him a monster.

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.

The world does not want a savior; it wants a weapon it can control. When the light of his world was extinguished by a Seele, a young boy’s grief gave birth to a terrifying resolve. Paralyzed no longer, he claimed the burden of the "Scarecrow"—a protector destined to stand in the center of the carnage, wielding a fierce, blue-tinted flame that burns with a heat the world has grown to loathe. In this era, such a Gift is no beacon of hope; it is a cursed anomaly, marking him as a pariah even as he serves as humanity's shield. His mission is fueled by a selfish vow: he has seen the worst this world has to offer, and he will slaughter every Seele in existence to ensure no one else has to witness that horror. But the Scarecrow does not burn for himself. Every searing blast of blue fire is for the one soul he refused to lose—the girl who remains his only home in a world of wreckage. She is his final tether to reality, the reason behind his crusade, and the only anchor keeping his humanity from being consumed by his own Blue Rage. Together with Squad Segment 663, he is deployed under the cold, calculating gaze of The Skulls—architects of a system where lives are merely data points on a probability monitor. From forgotten borders to decaying strongholds, they are the U.W.D.S.’s most efficient tools of "purification." Yet, in the silence between battles, a mysterious figure lingers. An unnamed guide who speaks in echoes, she is a weeping contradiction who offers a haunting comfort that feels ancient and dangerously familiar. As the squad faces the encroaching darkness of the Seele and the rising threat of a rival power, the "Scarecrow" must decide: is he truly a hero, or just a broken child enforcing his trauma on a world that already hates him? In a war where trust is a liability, the people he protects may be the first to call him a traitor.

An apocalyptic outbreak has turned humanity into monsters and forced civilizations into constant suffering, while a select few known as “Evolved” gain supernatural systems that let them transcend human limits. Unfortunately, Leon, a terminally ill and bedridden man, wasn't one of them, at least not in the way anyone expects. His system remains dormant, displaying only a single condition: “Condition to Activate System: DIE.” Leon experienced a merciful death, yet instead of heaven or hell, he awakens again in a different world. But not as a hero, nor a warrior. But as the owner of a magical inn: The Miraculous Fools. Leon must now adapt to hosting dangerous otherworldly patrons while handling the complex demands of maintaining a magical inn. With servants aligned to the 22 Tarot Arcana at his disposal, he must manage their unique roles and dynamics, all while safeguarding the inn from a surrounding world filled with death, eldritch horrors and mysteries. In a place where even hospitality can be deadly, survival may depend on mastering the most unlikely profession of all. Innkeeping! --- Disclaimer: Slow start that escalates later on.

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.

[WARNING: This book contains explicit R18 scenes] After the Catastrophe, the rich and the gifted built walls and left the rest of us on the other side. The plain, where zombies roam and survival is the only way to live. When the zombies finally caught me and sank their teeth into my neck, I didn't die. I awakened the Lewd Leveling System. [Core Rule: Have sex with female ability users to recharge, level up, and grow stronger.] [Every moan, every orgasm, every scream gives EXP.] Sounds great, right? Except the real problem starts when I make it inside the walls. Because every time I sleep with a female ability user, she charges and levels up too. *** In a world where ability is power and every ability user is slowly burning out, a Charger who can boost anyone's gift is the most wanted man alive — and Abram Nadez is the only Charger. How is he supposed to keep a low profile when every woman — students, teachers, administrators, MILFs — wants a sample, and every man who's lost his wife, girlfriend or mother to him wants him dead?

༺❘✦ 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!

Realizing he wrongly trusted another and caused the death of the woman he loved most, he kneels and begs for forgiveness with reddened eyes: "Cece, I was wrong, please give me one more chance..." Before Josie Quinn can even speak, several powerhouses behind her sneer in unison. Landon Hughes is sent flying with a kick. A certain mercenary leisurely wipes his hands: "Crematorium? I'll scatter your ashes for you." Later still, Alice Sullivan cries her eyes out: "Josie, I shouldn't have harmed you back then..." Josie Quinn hands her a script with a beaming smile: "Don't worry, I've arranged your center-stage zombie role for you~" #TheFakeDeath, TheRealThrillIs #AQuickCuddleIsNice, ButConstantCuddlesAreNicer #CremateTheEx?
