immortal

Fantasy with a sci-fi theme In the heart of the void—an abyss of absolute darkness, bitter cold, and a silence that crawls beneath the skin—the emptiness teemed with stars, planets, suns, black holes, and one final human body in all the universe. For an eternity, the body of Sol had drifted through that vast emptiness, fully conscious of the void around him, his form horribly twisted and broken. Until at last, a searing light, warm and brilliant, swept him away and cast him onto a strange world, saving him from that merciless abyss. But what point was there in salvation? Sol had long since lost his will to live. Time and again, he sought to end his own existence, yet the cursed body he inhabited refused to grant him even that release. Then after wandering for a time without purpose or destination, at the most strange of moments, something appeared before him—something that might at last lead him to the answers he had sought through endless ages. Answers concerning the unnatural power bound to this flesh. And perhaps, at long last, a way to sever it forever.

In Japan, amidst the rhythm of modern life and ancient legends, a parallel reality exists: a place where mythical apples grant supernatural powers to the fortunate—or curse the unfortunate to pay with their lives. This is not the story of just one person, but a web of many intertwined fates. In Osaka, an international student stumbles headlong into a conflict between underground factions. In a remote mountain town, a boy cast out by society awakens his strength from the ashes of a shattered childhood. And elsewhere—unhinged prodigies, hunters of a deadly legacy, and shadowy organizations with ambitions that defy human grasp—are all gradually drawn into a vortex with no escape. This is not a battle between good and evil. Nor is it the journey of a single hero. It is a chaotic portrait of the wounded, the forgotten, and the monsters born from humanity's own anguish. Where the line between reality and legend grows faint, can any of them still hold onto what it means to be "themselves"?

Would you give up your humanity in exchange for power? To never die, a chance to be a god? Humans had lost all will to try. Their existence had been reduced to a single, self-destructive purpose: to entertain and please the cosmic gods, known as Forces, in hopes of gaining a 'favour'. After 7 years of these continuous deadly games that suddenly appeared, the Earth we know is no more. Now an apocalyptic playground for the Forces to enjoy. To survive in this ruined world, every single player is compelled to participate in these weekly deadly games. All to win prizes, be granted one of the four Paths designed for Awakeners— those who earned ‘their’ affection and favour. Until Fateless, a ‘humble’ wanted thief, stumbled upon a unique Force, one of the creators of the games. It was then he discovered the grim truth behind his name - 'Fateless' - deemed worthless and discarded at birth, exempt from all four Paths. Consumed by despair and hate, he took a risk and accepted a proposal from a shady cosmic god, granting him a fifth Path, giving him the ability to absorb human life essence to grow stronger, all for a small price. [ “I shall grant you the Fifth Path.” ] [ “The Path of Insanity.” ] [ “No mortal seeks forever without unraveling. Madness is the toll, the tariff paid at the gate.”] [ “You will no longer fear death. Nor die of age. Nor plague. Nor wounds that mortal hands deliver.” ] [ “But immortality is fed… not gifted.” ] [ “Just a tiny tithe. 10% of your humanity.” ] ‘What more is there to lose a bit of humanity, anyway? It only drags one down from their full potential. I could do just about anything without being bound to death. Anything… What a thrill it would be to spit on these cosmic slugs' faces.’ .... 300 Power stones: 2 bonus chapters 20 Golden Tickets: 3 bonus chapters 50 Golden Tickets: 5 bonus chapters

Marcus is thirty-one years old, blind since nineteen, and living a narrow but stable life in a city apartment when he dies on a Tuesday afternoon without warning or explanation. What comes after isn't what he expected — a system finds him in the nothing, offers him a singular assisted entry onto the path of cultivation, and asks him to choose a vessel. He chooses a mango tree. Not for strategic reasons. For a slice of fruit his mother handed him on a street in Bangkok when he was nine years old, and the wish he never stopped carrying to taste it again. He becomes a seed in a pot in an apartment he can't identify, conscious before he has roots or leaves, with a cultivation system he can barely access and a perception range of three feet. He has no body, no voice, no way to move or act. He has time, a library of knowledge he must earn the right to read, and a hand that comes through his perception dome at the same time every morning to water him. That hand belongs to Maya Reeves — a research scientist in her late thirties who grows plants as a hobby and keeps meticulous notes on all fourteen pots on her windowsill. She finds the mango seedling in her lemongrass pot one morning without explanation and almost pulls it. She doesn't. Something makes her not want to. After weeks of careful observation, Marcus initiates the Heartwood connection — a cultivation feature that links him to Maya as both teacher and cultivation source. Through it he begins giving her quests, cultivation knowledge and eventually a method suited precisely to who she is: the Evergreen Method, a wood element cultivation technique designed for practitioners whose lives already involve daily contact with living things. Maya cultivates through her mornings and her greenhouse work and her hands in soil, and Marcus refines the raw energy she provides and returns it clean, keeping a small share for his own slow accumulation. The arrangement is symbiotic. Maya progresses faster than would otherwise be possible in a modern world stripped of spiritual energy. Marcus grows faster than a sapling in a terracotta pot has any right to. Neither of them fully understands what they're building together, though both are paying close attention. Maya's family — her steady husband James, her sharp eighteen-year-old daughter Claire, and her six-year-old son Sam who pressed his palm against the pot one Saturday morning and announced it felt warm — are drawn into the orbit of what the tree is doing one by one. Each of them has spiritual roots. Each of them will eventually have to decide what to do about that. Marcus, for his part, is patient. He has been patient since before he had leaves. He cultivates one small deliberate change at a time and watches the household around him become something neither of them planned for — a family learning to grow alongside a tree that is learning to grow alongside them. He still thinks about that mango from the street market in Bangkok. He thinks he might, eventually, be able to do something about that. Bearing Fruit is a slow-burn cultivation novel about consciousness, care, interdependence, and what it means to become something new without losing what you were. It is also, among other things, about a blind man who loved mangoes and made an unusual choice in the dark.

Ayelen and Arnold were never meant to be part of something this big. One lived quietly, lost in his own thoughts. The other carried more than he ever showed. But when a series of strange events begins to unfold—fights that don’t feel human, powers that shouldn’t exist, and truths that don’t make sense—their world starts to shift. What begins as small incidents soon turns into something far darker. Hidden forces move behind the scenes. Unknown beings walk among humans. And a power long forgotten begins to awaken again. As reality starts to bend, the line between human and something far beyond it begins to fade. And the question is no longer what is happening… It’s who is still human anymore.

For Lorielle, life had always been cruel to her. From the moment she could remember, her world had been one of restriction, seclusion and any word used to convey someone being caged. She lived not as a person, but as something owned, controlled, traded and watched. Ever since she was born, her mother had always been in charge of what she wears, eats, drinks, says, and does in her whole life. Never was she asked what she wanted in life, as her dreams had been planned out, long before she was born. She was never meant to dream. Yet, beneath the silence and obedience forced upon her, Lorielle held onto one unyielding desire, to be free from every shackle that bound her. But freedom is never a simple mission. Hidden truths begin to surface, and Lorielle slowly realises that her captivity is not without reason. There are secrets tied to her existence, secrets powerful enough to threaten kingdoms and shake thrones. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous her world becomes. Then comes he. King Aldric, a pure blooded vampire. A man bound by duty, power. Aldric is the definition of cold, adamant, and feared, he stands on the opposite side of everything Lorielle has ever known. Where she longs for freedom and affection, he is chained by responsibility. Aldric hated Lorielle to the core. He swore he could kill her if he was afforded the opportunity to. There was no hate bigger than Aldric's hate towards Lorielle. Their paths were never meant to cross, but when they do, everything begins to unravel. In a world of power, betrayal, and unspoken desires, Lorielle must decide: Will she risk everything for the freedom she has always dreamed of, Or will she become a prisoner of something far more dangerous than chains… her own heart? Note: This novel is going to seem slow at first but as you dive deeper you will get to see the novel true potentials. Settings: This story is set in a Victorian era.

EARTH was destroyed but some of the inhabitants were send to a different world, which will be targeted next by the DESTROYER, who destroyed Earth. They were given a game like system and a mission to avenge EARTH. Elena was only a 16-years old girl that time and she was suddenly transported to another world full of betrayal, killing, plunder, debauchery and more. That world was also at the verge of extinction by the DESTROYER. But Elena was able to save the world after going through a lot of unimaginable hardship for seven years and became the World Savior. After fulfilling her mission now she have a chance to either stay in this world as hero, or go to another world to start a new comfortable life as a reward. So, what will she do? How will her journey go from now on? Join Elena who is a kind hearted, overpowered and ruthless girl in her journey to enjoy her life to the fullest after overcoming a lot of harsh trials. ______________ Elena is overpowered FMC and she is not involved in any kind of romance. I hate the idea of my protagonist to be a lovestruck maiden like many novels. She is strong, independent, kind and decisive. This story mainly focuses on the adventure and fantasy aspects more with slice of life and actions mixed in it. This novel is my take on creating a perfect Female Main Charector of my liking and to create a story of a proper hero and savior. ______________ The cover does belong to me, so no prob. discord: https://discord.com/invite/fYqDSEYVUM kofi: ko-fi.com/omniscient_ Have fun reading.

I hated him for being so difficult, but the thought of him being gone made my stomach turn into a block of ice. My brain went numb. My instincts took over. I stepped in front of the door. My hands were shaking so hard I could barely feel them. I grabbed the hem of my dress. I can't believe I'm doing this for a man I wanted to kill an hour ago, I thought. But whatever was pulling me, didn't care about my anger. In one fast, desperate motion, I pulled the dress over my head and let it drop. The cold air hit my bare skin, making my nipples turn into hard, sensitive pebbles instantly. I stood there, completely naked, my heart hammering so loud it echoed in my ears. Oh!
