Wretched Wicked and Vile is a dark fantasy web novel that follows the philosophical Antihero, who, lost everything due to not being among the prophesied heroes.

The Weave of Silence ​In the Layered Abyss, truth is a lethal infection. ​The multiverse is not a collection of worlds, but a decaying shroud of parallel shards drifting in The Silence—a cosmic rot that transforms memories into monsters and hope into madness. In this dying reality, power is not earned; it is stolen. To gain a Concept is to kill a god; to seek the truth is to lose your mind. ​Daxian does not want to save the world. He has already surgically removed his own empathy to ensure he survives the coming collapse. Along with Silas, a phantom who treads between dimensions, and Vane, a mad dog who thrives on the kinetic agony of battle, Daxian begins an ascent through the shards that will leave reality scarred. ​They are not heroes. They are not villains. They are the entropy that the universe feared. ​In a world where God is just another word for sin, the only way to end the suffering is to unweave existence itself. ​"The stars do not blink because they are watching. They are blinking because they are hungry."

This Story is inspired from Tensura and So I'm A Spider so what, if you like them you can read this but you not might like this because of preference and I don't think you need a synopsis because the title is enough.

Volume 1 is complete. Best experienced in one intense binge. --- Yet again, Earthlings were summoned. A dying Time God, already half-corrupted, descended upon Earth with nothing but a single, blinking eye. No body. No mercy. Before he could explain why the other world was collapsing—or what happened—he died. The chosen were cursed. Each Earthling aged from 12 to 60 was reincarnated into another world. Each was trapped in an isolated time loop. Each was abandoned without answers. Ganesh chose to reincarnate as the weakest race imaginable: a slime. Not for survival—but because the system offered him a trait, very powerful: Eternal Mastery [Mythic]. With every death, his body reset. With every loop, his masteries, learned techniques, and pain carried over. He awakened in a slime farm, where slimes were bred like cattle, harvested for food, and burned alive for amusement. He learned quickly. He died quickly. Again. And again. And again. Across loops, Ganesh experimented with his own existence— Fire Slime {Uncommon}. Water Slime {Uncommon}. Acid Slime {Uncommon}. Elemental Slime {Rare+}. Spirit Slime {Legendary}. Dragon Slime {Mythic}. Even Primordial Slime {Divine}. But strength revealed truth. Humans had erased their own history using sealed artifacts. Demons were branded as betrayers. Gods fought unholy beings elsewhere—leaving their failures behind. Beneath ruined cities and sealed fortresses, eldritch creatures waited— Rituals granted power along with a curse. Artifacts erased wills. Faith was devoured before it could bloom. And the deeper Ganesh went, the clearer it became: The world had lost hope and was corrupted with Eldritch. Even the sun and moon were taken over by Eldritch. Now, as gods fall, timelines fracture, and ancient wars resurface, Ganesh must decide— Will he save the world Or will he follow the same path… and become something unholy himself? Dark Fantasy • Time Loop • Eldritch Horror • Progression Fantasy Daily Updates A dark progression fantasy with time loops and psychological erosion (for readers who enjoyed the despair and repetition of Re:Zero). No one 17 and under admitted is due to gore and dark... And an important note, something happens near the end of Arc 3, this is for those who feel limitless loops have no tension....because he can still loop—but every reset tears his soul apart. The truth behind this wound is revealed near the end of Arc Three. {Read it to find out}

[The war between light and shadow is over. Shadow won.] A queen who never sleeps hunts her daughter. A cannibal who carries her child's strength inside her, atoning for sins not hers alone to bear. A devil offers a kingdom to a girl who has nothing, and asks nothing in return. From the moment Rya was born, the Void has been staring at her. Patiently waiting for the right moment. They want her dead, but they never moved. Why? Because her mother is Nyxelene, the only woman strong enough to rule one of the three great kingdoms in a world owned by men. The rumours about what Nyxelene could do were already enough to make most monsters choke on their ambitions. But that’s not the real reason the Void only watches. A child has two parents. Half of Rya’s blood belongs to a name that makes even the things without mouths shut up and crawl back into the dark. For that same reason, the light had its gaze on her too, but neither side dares make any moves. However, nothing stays safe forever. Now Nyxelene herself is hunting the daughter she never wanted, and only she knows why. A princess who can’t ride a horse, can’t swing a sword, is suddenly the most wanted person in Runevale. In her blind panic she crashes into a woman with perfect skin and the gentlest smile you’ll ever see. This woman eats her enemies alive and spits out the bones. That said, even she was not enough to protect her from Nyxelene. In her zero hour, the devil made an entrance with his hand outstretched and a bright smile on his face. He offers Rya his hand. He offers her one of the three great kingdoms. He offers her himself. Question is: Why in the seven hells would the Devil protect a helpless prey when he could just drag her soul to hell and call it a day? Now, the most watched girl in the two realms just became the devil's problem. Your move, Void and light.

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, nestled between realms of light and shadow, lies a land veiled in mystery and wonder—Astravia. This ancient realm is a tapestry woven with towering mountains, ethereal waterfalls, and fiery volcanic peaks, each imbued with the timeless presence of its enigmatic Royal Family. Astravia stretches across diverse landscapes, shaped by colossal forces and the mysteries they hold. From the brooding Thunderpeak Mountains where storms rage relentlessly, to the serene Enchanted Grove where ancient trees whisper secrets of forgotten epochs, the realm hums with a quiet, enigmatic energy. At the heart of Astravia rises the Citadel of Stars, a fortress of grandeur and ancient wisdom perched atop the loftiest peak. Here, the Royal Family rules alongside noble houses—Dukes and Duchesses, Marquises and Marquesses, Counts and Countesses, and Barons and Baronesses—who navigate the intricate web of power and intrigue within the realm. Beyond the citadel's shadow, Astravia thrives with vibrant cultures and untold tales. Sea-faring traders ply the depths of Sapphire Bay, their vessels laden with exotic goods and stories of distant lands. Scholars pore over ancient scrolls, seeking the keys to unlock the realm's deepest mysteries. Yet, amidst the beauty and splendor, Astravia harbors secrets and unseen dangers. Whispers of forgotten prophecies echo through mist-shrouded valleys, hinting at hidden truths and fateful encounters yet to unfold. Shadows dance along the edges of moonlit forests, concealing mysteries that stir the hearts of adventurers and seekers of knowledge. In Astravia, where the boundaries between reality and myth blur, the fate of the realm is woven with threads of intrigue and uncertainty. As twilight descends over the Thunderpeak Mountains, casting an ethereal glow across the volcanic plains, the stage is set for a new chapter in Astravia's ancient saga—a tale of discovery, ambition, and the enduring spirit of a realm where mortals tread lightly in the dance of destiny.

Aryan was the "Golden Boy" of the Indian tech scene—until the people he trusted most cut his throat. In a sterile boardroom in Mumbai, his best friend and his lead investor didn't just fire him; they stripped him of his dignity, his shares, and his life’s work. As his heart failed under the crushing weight of their greed, Aryan realized the truth: In the world of modern business, being a "good founder" is just another way of saying you're a "good lamb." But the universe isn't finished with him. Aryan wakes up ten years in the past, back in 2016. He’s broke, he’s in a tiny apartment, and he’s holding a cracked laptop. But this time, he isn't alone. A glowing, imperial interface hovers in the air—the [Chakravartin Business System]. The System offers him a path that no MBA could ever teach. It grants him the strategies of the Gupta Empire, the legendary "Golden Age" of India. To win, Aryan must stop playing by the rules of Silicon Valley and start playing by the rules of Emperors. He must hunt down the Ten Gems—the SSR-tier geniuses hidden in the shadows of the corporate world. A disgraced architect of code, a ruthless master of logistics, a legendary keeper of the mint—together, they will form his Imperial Council. But building an empire costs more than money. Aryan is haunted by the memories of his future: the face of the woman he loved who was forced to marry his rival, the family he neglected, and the crushing loneliness of power. Can he build his "Pataliputra" without becoming the very monster who killed him? Every decision is a gamble. Every contract is a battlefield. As Aryan’s influence grows, his enemies from the future begin to notice a "ghost" in the market—a shadow player who knows their every move before they make it. The Paper Kings are gathering their armies. The corporate siege is coming. Will Aryan unite the "Four Quarters" of the market, or is he destined to die in a boardroom once again?

In the era of the Old World, there walked women who did not merely cast magic, but breathed life into the world. They were the weavers of Black Magic, more commonly known as Witches. For thousands of years, the earth has been barren of them. For a Witch is not born, she is wrought. The scholars of the Old World claimed three conditions unlock this forbidden power: First, there must be the Drowning of the Heart. The woman must be pushed past the breaking point of human sorrow. Grief must become the water that drowns her humanity. Second, there must be the Sharpening of the Will. Hate must become the steel of her spine. She must choose not to weep, but to burn. Third, and most rare, there must be the Anchor of the Beast. A Witch without a tether is but a storm that consumes itself. She requires a devotion that rivals her own: a dragon who would trade his divinity to stand in the shadow of her thorns. When these three tides collide, the Mage dies, and the Witch awakens. It is said that when the Witch returns, the mountains will breathe again. The dead woods will scream, and the kingdoms of men will be reclaimed by a garden that never sleeps.
