In a world ravaged by the Great Fall, cities lie in ruins, and the lands are shrouded in ash and shadows. Monsters and demons roam the desolate territories, while secret cults worship the darkness, striving to gain a power denied to ordinary humans. Ancient gods watch over the world, intervening only rarely, and a constant sense of unease and danger hangs in the air. In this grim and cold world, every place holds its own secrets, every encounter could be the last, and magic and strength determine who survives and who is left forgotten in the wastelands.

When Earth merged with a deadly game, everyone fought for survival. Humanity was thrown into an apocalypse of monsters, dungeons, and survival rankings. While everyone else risked their lives fighting for scraps, Lin Feng awakened the Idle Apocalypse System. His zombie clones farm resources, grind experience, and craft equipment automatically 24/7 even while he's offline. As survivors struggle to kill a single monster, his undead workers strip entire zones clean without leaving footprints. They think he's weak. They think he's useless. By the time they realize the truth, his AFK zombie empire will already rule the apocalypse.

In the midst of chaos and death, life alone wasn't as valuable as it used to be, unless you fight for it, although, still worthless. "Is this the end?!" Descending like endless rain, Echoes, brought with them chaos, calamity, and death. "It can't be…" Hitori, a normal high schooler, was suddenly dragged into a world of chaos. "An Apocalypse?" No. It was something worse, something humanity had never experienced. A whole new world was unfolding, and history wasn't going to be around to record it. Hitori was furious, confused, angered, and raged, by the suffering he had encountered because of the Echoes, but there was nothing he could do, nothing to save his world, nothing to protect the people he loved. Nothing. Until… it came, what he needed, a clear answer before him. He was bestowed with power. A rather mysterious one, different from other Transcendents - a selected group of people with supernatural powers. A power he had to keep a secret. However, things didn't go as planned. Forced to move between different realms and fight against monstrous creatures, Echoes, and Transcendents, he tries to uncover the hidden mystery behind the cause of his shattered world, and bring it back to its glory days. However, little did he know he only had twenty-one days left to depart from the place he called home, with no plans of ever returning. ======= Disclaimer: This novel is not the typical hero saves the day type thing, our MC is an Anti-Hero. Not a villain but an Anti-Hero. Although the MC will be cold and distant, he wouldn't go overboard. It will be a slow pace story but not too slow. There is no system that would be giving the MC OP powers, our MC will struggle as he grows, both in power and understanding of the new world he's in. Most people might see the name of the novel and be confused, but do not falter; the world building will not be that complicated. Warning: There would be a lot of k*lling and deaths as seen in chapter one. It might sound a bit horror but I will not make it as such, since I want this to be a story that everyone can read and enjoy. It is my first time writing, meaning I'm a newbie author so if you notice any mistakes feel free to comment below the chapters.

“Doing the wrong thing for the right reason… never ends well for anyone.” Seven great races ruled the continent of Eldarion. Humans weren’t among them. To the world, mankind was nothing more than background noise, as insignificant as a breath of air, as laughable as a failed joke of creation. A race with no promise. No power. No future. Tyler was born into that world—a world where every “hero of humanity” was fated to fall before they could rise. So he abandoned the path of heroes entirely. He chose the road stained in shadows. He chose the power no sane soul would touch. He chose to become a demon— not for glory, but for survival. His purpose was simple: Ascend as the Demon King. Stand as a monstrous shield when the true invaders finally tear into their continent. And he succeeded. He rose higher, darker, and stronger than any being before him. But power has a price. A price he only understood when it was far too late. For in climbing toward salvation, He became the very abomination he once swore to destroy— The Desecrator. And the world whispered: “There is no lesser or greater evil. There is only evil.” Yet a more profound truth lingered in the dark: “Because sometimes, only one Evil can devour another.” *** Discord - https://discord.gg/4xbt5Nwrtn *** #Yandere #ComplexCharacters #NoHarem #Dark #RareBloodline #Magic #Slowburn #FatedLove #Demons #Dragons #Otherworlders #RunicSorcery #Evil-FL

"Dragons and their spawn rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _____ Power comes from the beast you tame. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, chimeras, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, troll dogs(not doge) or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option... His aging parents sold everything for his "failed" chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? Turns out they start small too. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a darker story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun and taming expectations. _______ We will use the same Discord from my first book, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 _______ Silly tags that seem to matter a lot to some readers: No Yaoi, No Yuri, Possibly Harem (Vote! I can write either, and in any case, there will be multiple girls. The only difference is whether he chooses one in the end or goes the "liberal" route.... democracy is yours!), No NTR.

Seated upon the obsidian throne carved from the bones of forgotten kings, Queen Sahira gazes with haunted authority. Her crimson hair cascades like spilled wine over blood-red robes etched in ancient runes. Veins of power glow faintly beneath her skin, a testament to the forbidden blood magic she commands. Shadows of the past; faceless, whispering, watching; loom behind her, remnants of the souls bound to her rise. This is the heart of Sahirra's power: beauty cloaked in terror, a legacy soaked in sacrifice. Her silence speaks of kingdoms ruled, rebellions crushed, and a destiny darker than prophecy ever dared whisper. Inspired by the Dune, The poppy war and Avatar

They say he's not human. He doesn't seek companion, he doesn't seek love, he doesn't seek fame, what he seeked is only the thrill of murder and gamble. Astrith was once a slave.

Aurel Mortis was a necessity that the world did not realise it needed. Under his rule, order reigned and progress flourished. But fear followed in its wake. Aurel was ruthless to his enemies and tyrannical to his subjects. There was peace. There was stability. But there was also terror. And terror drove innovation... nearly leading to Aurel's demise. The kingdoms that once knelt now knew how to hunt. They built weapons capable of killing a 'god'. They called him a tyrant, a monster hiding amongst men. They believed he was obsolete. They were wrong.

Betrayed and killed after saving his world, the hero Arin Valecrest is reborn by a god into a brutal new realm. Gifted with infinite mana, a godlike body, and a divine tool, he chooses a quiet life deep in a forbidden forest. But when the world and even the gods disturb his peace, the power he hides may reshape everything.

Adele de Frostfang, born a princess and a Luna by blood, she was never meant to be invisible. Yet at twenty-two, she remains unmated, powerless, and whispered about behind gilded doors. Her childhood spent in hospitals left her sheltered and naïve, while her younger sister shines effortlessly in the spotlight of society. In a world ruled by packs, power, and bonds, a Luna without a mate is seen as incomplete—and disposable. Tired of pity and ridicule, she makes a reckless decision: if fate will not give her a mate, she will choose one herself. She decides to learn the ways of high-circle from a rogue, what begins as lessons in confidence, society, and adulthood slowly turns into something deeper. But secrets cannot stay buried forever. This is a modern werewolf romance about choice, growth, forbidden bonds, and a no-mate Luna who dares to write her fate.

The world forgot him. Zalam was born into ruin, a survivor of the Daybreakers’ devastation and the neglected Rejects of society. For years, he endured in silence, carrying the weight of loss and despair… until the shadow inside him awoke. In that awakening, Zalam inherited the power of a fallen god—the Fallen Night, deity of death and exile. Shadows obeyed him, hunger surged through his veins, and the world that ignored him trembled. But power comes with a price: the gods are watching, and the very act of survival has made him a heretic.

Born frail in body and dismissed by the world as insignificant, Lucien Voss grows up learning a cruel truth early in life: strength invites resistance, but intelligence invites surrender. Mocked, ignored, and underestimated, Lucien survives not by fighting back—but by observing, calculating, and remembering. Behind his quiet demeanor lies a mind capable of dismantling systems, predicting human behavior, and turning chaos into opportunity. While others chase power through force, Lucien builds it through information, manipulation, and flawless strategy. Every insult becomes data. Every loss, a lesson. Every human weakness, a tool. As society spirals through political unrest, corporate greed, and moral decay, Lucien positions himself not as a hero nor a villain—but as an inevitable outcome. Allies rise believing they lead, enemies fall without realizing they were ever opposed, and empires shift hands without a single battle being fought. What begins as a story of survival slowly transforms into one of domination. Lucien does not conquer nations with armies or weapons—he conquers minds. And by the time the world recognizes his influence, it is already living by his design.

After mocking a webnovel's most pathetic villain, Alex never expected to wake up in his body. Now he is Kaelen Leone, the laughingstock of the Royal Academy, a walking punchline with a pre-scripted fate: to be publicly crippled by the story’s golden-boy protagonist. Transported into a world governed by a System and a merciless plot, he finds himself in a deadly game of survival not against monsters, but against the narrative itself. What's worse, the unique power he awakens comes with a small, but potentially fatal condition…

It’s the age of superhumans! Genetic modifications, Cybernetic enhancements, magic enchantments- the choice is yours! For the right price, you can rise above the masses and gain power only ever seen in myths! For the right price! No matter how far humanity advances, power will always fall in the hands of the wealthy few. It was a truth Dante learned at a very young age and with it came a burning hatred for those who use power to oppress and dominate. The flames grew stronger once he found himself faced with the cruelty of those who rule from above. Left all alone in the world, robbed of everyone he cherished, Dante swore revenge on those who hurt him, but true power couldn’t be fought with hatred alone. In his search for a weapon that could help him take his revenge, Dante crosses paths with a certain Artifact, his fate taking a turn he could never have anticipated. =================================== This is not a Fan Fic.

Yoon Taehyun lives a double life he never asked for. At seventeen, he’s a second-year high schooler in Seoul—known, liked, and unremarkable in the ways that matter.

Caught between ordinary school days and a world that demands proof in blood and fear, Yoon Taehyun must decide how long a boy can remain invisible in a city that thrives on shadows.

"You really think you can just hide forever? From them? From me?" "Do you really think we can be together?" she whispered, her voice rougher than she meant. "No. We can't. It just won't work." Zayden tilted his head, his thumb brushing against the frantic pulse under her jaw. "Why?" His voice dropped low, dangerously smooth. "Why can't we make this work, huh?" She swallowed, the movement making her throat press harder against his hand. "Don't forget, You're----" “Say you love me…. Or I’ll fvck that stubbornness right out of you.

The beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.
