Meet Alex Knight, a hardworking young man burdened by crushing debt and a bleak future. When his new boss turns his life into a waking nightmare, Alex finds himself trapped in a job he can't escape, his future held hostage by the whims of a tyrant. Just when he believes he has one anchor left—his girlfriend's love—a devastating betrayal leaves him utterly broken. But then the world changes. The system descends, dragging everyone into a chaotic new reality. Alex becomes the first to sync with it, earning a mysterious title: [Apocalypse Baby] [You have awakened the skill: Exploding Touch] [Anything you touch turns into a bomb.] Armed with a deadly gift, Alex rises from the ashes of his former life to become an unstoppable force in an urban fantasy world where power rules and vengeance drives him forward. Author’s Note: This story is about a man who loses everything—his freedom, his love, his sense of self—before the world itself collapses into chaos. Alex isn't a stoic hero who shrugs off pain. He feels it, breaks under it, and then rebuilds from the wreckage. Some readers might call him dramatic. And they're right—this isn't a power fantasy about a flawless protagonist. It’s about a man clawing his way back with explosive power, raw emotion, and zero filters. If you're into emotionally intense underdogs who explode (literally and metaphorically), welcome to the ride.

They said it was only a school lunch program. They were wrong. After Arga ate the food from the MBG program, his body changed—faster, stronger, more connected. But he wasn’t the only one.

It’s about who controls the future.

In the ruthless city of Valdenmoor, power is not earned by birth… but by the System. Levels define everything. Strength determines status. And the weak are destined to be forgotten. Kael Ashfen was born at the very bottom. Mocked, ignored, and treated as nothing more than a failure, Kael lived in the shadows of a world where even survival required strength. In Valdenmoor, those without power don’t rise… they disappear. But on the night everything was taken from him, the impossible happened. A forbidden System awakened. [Unique Skill Unlocked: 1000x EXP Gain] [Hidden Class Activated: Necromancer of Thousand Deaths] From that moment, Kael was no longer weak. Every enemy he kills fuels his rise. Every corpse becomes his army. Every death… makes him stronger. As kingdoms tremble and powerful elites begin to notice his unnatural growth, Kael walks a path soaked in blood and shadows—raising legions of the dead, breaking the laws of the System itself. But power always comes with a price. The more Kael grows, the more the world turns against him. Hunters, nobles, and even the System’s enforcers begin their pursuit. Because in a world ruled by order… Kael Ashfen is an anomaly. And anomalies must be erased. 3 chp Daily 5 chp on sunday

Aiden was reborn into a cultivation realm, carrying the abilities of his former in-game avatar, a necromancer. All he ever wanted was to adapt, keep his head down, and survive in this ruthless, law-of-the-jungle world. But destiny had other intentions.

Note: I'll be posting this novel on royal road. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/962348 What do we all seek after a long day? Some may say wealth, others comfort… perhaps the embrace of a lover or the warmth of laughter among friends. Yet when everything is stripped away, there is one thing every living being longs for: Rest. To lie upon a soft bed, wrap ourselves in warmth, close our eyes, and surrender to the tranquility of sleep, hoping for blissful dreams to carry us away from the cruelty of reality. But what if sleep was the crueler reality? What if every time your eyes closed, you were dragged into another world? A world not of wonder, but of nightmares. A place where monsters hunt you endlessly and even rest itself becomes impossible. At first, it may sound like fantasy. Another world? An adventure? The dream of every reader. But think deeper. If you spend the day surviving one harsh world, only to spend the night surviving another… then when do you truly rest? When do you heal? When do you live? Such is the fate of Prince Idel . A frail, exhausted royal who wanders the Dream Realm every night for eternity. In one world, he is misunderstood. In the other, he is hated.

Ten thousand and nine people are selected to beta test the world's first VRMMORPG called the Decagon. A game that offers players complete freedom, where all their choices matter and form the story itself. Every choice they make will change the game world itself. The players enter the world to find that it is a fully furnished and fleshed-out world with everything they expected to be there, but one thing.

Though the reaction to this is numerous, one thing they do not seem to realize is that there is a reason ten thousand and nine players were chosen. For those nine players, a completely different game would begin soon. One that would change their purpose and goal within the game from everyone else drastically.

Max, a man who has chosen a different, slower path. Most active players who haven't given up on completing the game go to higher floors soon after they get unlocked, if not immediately.

There must be a reward for exploring a world thoroughly, even if it has been cleared after defeating the main boss monster. And so, he decides to stay and do what he has always loved to do in video games, explore and discover. To embark on an epic adventure. Or maybe he was simply scared in the early stages of the game.

He traveled through Douluo and became Tang San's brother, Tang Chuan. He only awakened the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, and his innate soul power was just level one. Tang San was blind to the fact that his Blue Silver Grass was actually the top-level plant-type martial spirit, the Blue Silver Emperor, and that its greatest advantage was its vitality. Under the instigation of Yu Xiaogang, Tang San developed his Blue Silver Grass into a useless martial spirit that could only entangle and control. However, Tang Chuan chose a completely different cultivation path. His Blue Silver Grass wasn't the control type but the life type. He even created his own unique training system for Blue Silver Grass: the Wood Release Technique! A few years later, the two brothers reunited. Tang San was shocked to discover that his brother wasn't the "waste" that Yu Xiaogang had claimed he was. Instead, Tang Chuan was a genius soul master with ultimate attack power and endless recovery. He could even bring the dead back to life! Tang San: "How could this be? We both have Blue Silver Grass spirits, but why can Tang Chuan's be used to heal, attack, and control?" Master: "How could there be a problem with my spirit theory? Tang San couldn't beat Tang Chuan because of his own faults. Have you been practicing seriously over the years?" Shura God: "The damage I've caused isn't as much as the blood he's recovered?" Tang Hao: "Tang Chuan is my son, not Tang San!" Many years later, the Blue Silver Grass reappeared on the continent in a completely new form. This time, it was no longer a useless martial spirit. It was a top-level martial spirit that was unrivaled in the world and had both offensive and defensive capabilities! --------------- Check out advanced chapters on : patreon.com/Veni_V

{69K words before locked] Fifty years ago, a shower of meteors descended from the skies. With them came a strange, colorful mist that wiped out ten percent of humanity and changed the world forever. Ten years later, the real nightmare began. From beyond the stars came the Abberants — massive, intelligent, ape-like creatures standing over nine meters tall. Stronger, faster, technologically superior, they declared themselves the rightful rulers of Earth and plunged humanity into a war it never asked for. On the brink of extinction, humanity survived only because of one miracle. Meta-Humans. Humans who awakened extraordinary abilities and pushed the Abberants back. Some shared their powers to protect mankind. Others hoarded them, turning strength into bloodline privilege. Ray Dawson was never one of them. At least, not at first. Just a boy with an ordinary life, working in secret to save enough money to buy an ability book and change his fate — without his mother ever knowing. The day his dream was supposed to come true, everything was taken from him. An Abberant attack left Ray with nothing but rage, grief, and a shattered future.
