How much are you willing to stake to ease your past guilt? If given a chance, a glimmer of hope, how would you seize it? Are you willing to stake everything for that goal? Lucian's answer will always be the same: in order to meet his parents again, he is willing to stake everything—his life, or even the lives of others. Will he fall or succeed? He doesn’t know. For him, this dim spark of hope is enough to chase after the impossible. But if he were to face the Fragments of the Heavenly Dao that had regained consciousness themselves, could he still say the same?

Some legends are forged by ambition. Others are carved by war. And some come into existence simply because a certain man happened to pass through. Altair Vane walks a vast fantasy world ruled by celestials, angels, demons, ancient orders, and empires that have stood unchallenged for ages. He does not seek power. He does not seek conquest. He does not seek purpose. He walks because the world exists. Cast into an era far removed from the one he remembers, Altair chooses the simplest path—becoming an adventurer. Not to change the world, but to see how it has changed… and to enjoy whatever lies ahead. Along his journey, he gains companions, forms bonds, and crosses paths with a cold, enigmatic woman whose presence quietly draws the attention of forces far older than they appear. As Altair travels across kingdoms, ruins, and forgotten realms, stories begin to spread. Not because he seeks to become a legend— but because legends have a habit of forming wherever he stands. This is a tale of adventure, camaraderie, and quiet heroism. A story of a man who never bowed— and a world slowly learning that some figures are not meant to be understood, restrained, or challenged— only witnessed. Tags.

But as new memories begin to flood in and reality sets in, he realises this world is far darker than he imagined.

I will be adding original characters, clans, and other elements that are not part of the original Naruto story.

Twelve years ago, an orphanage was burned to ashes. Steel melted, glass was turned to liquid. Everyone inside the orphanage home died except one child. Twelve years ago, the world should have ended for Kian the night the orphanage burned. But he survived, and untouched by the fire, Kian was taken away by an assassin family that hunts supernatural monsters in a world where only a fraction of humanity can fight back. Because of this, some call him the last Emberborn. For years, Kian never believed it. While others around him awakened strange abilities and trained, he endured, watching and waiting with no clear power of his own and no certainty that he would survive the next death scare. But that changes when a long-delayed test awakens the infernal energy within him. The truth is revealed. Kian doesn’t ignite the flame; he commands it. Sealed records resurface, old purges are remembered, and Crestfall sends him on a mission meant to measure his limits. The mission fails. Not because Kian is weak, but because his power breaks something far beyond reasoning. And Crestfall realizes something far more dangerous: Kian's flame doesn't resist suppression. It doesn't rage, rather, it acknowledges him. As something old begins to stir, Kian steps into a world of quests, rankings, and monsters, where survival is never guaranteed.

https://discord.gg/7UfYDTpaM because why not *** I was born in darkness and lived my life within it. But when the choice came, I willingly stepped into the light. Was it desire or a whim that made me do it? I don’t remember. I never had a name. They were foreign to me, yet I yearned for one. Why? I don’t remember. I remember how emotions once felt—how I couldn’t understand them. To me, they were like the flavors of ice cream. Now I can feel them, but they are too conflicting. Why do I feel sad, excited, and at peace while looking at the rain? Why are my feelings so conflicted, so contradictory, even over the simplest things? Was discarding so much of myself and becoming human worth it? My past self would say yes without hesitation. But in the present, I find myself wondering… hesitating. Was it really worth it? If yes, then why do I feel so empty? I can’t go back. I must walk forward without hesitation and regret. Perhaps this emptiness will fade with time. I can only hope. To my past self: I have achieved the goal you were seeking. I hope I didn’t let you down. I hope to make you proud.

“I will not become the Duke devoured by madness… nor the son enslaved by his father’s shadow.” Whispers crawl through the ancient halls of Beaumont. Rumors of blood magic. Of betrayal. Of a Duke whose legacy rotted from within. Aldric de Beaumont—illegitimate heir and decorated captain of the royal knights—returns to his ancestral duchy to find it poisoned by corruption and haunted by the remnants of his father’s forbidden sorcery. Branded by a curse he never asked for, Aldric walks the thin line between loyalty and lunacy, between man… and the monster his blood yearns to become. But in the hush between whispers, another voice calls to him—soft, luminous, familiar. As madness stalks his every step, Aldric must confront the truth buried beneath centuries of deceit: the Beaumont bloodline forged a pact with an ancient power now stirring in its grave. The corruption is spreading, twisting flesh and fate alike, and the key to stopping it lies within Aldric himself. “You carry the curse of his blood, Aldric,” Elias whispers—the voice that both anchors and unravels him. Torn between duty and desire, haunted by visions and betrayal, Aldric must decide which nightmare to embrace: The darkness bequeathed by his father… or the one blooming in his own heart. The future of Beaumont—and the bond that defies death—hangs on a single choice. “The storm is here,” she murmurs. “Will you rise from it, Aldric… or drown?”

Ashan died as he lived, saving others. Reincarnated into a world where mana flows through nature and awakened superhumans fight monsters from dungeons, he gains a mysterious system inspired by Naruto and Jujutsu Kaisen. This world is on the verge of ruin. A being known as the Destroyer of worlds is destined to wipe everything out, and even the original heroine, Eirena Greaves, will fail and die. Knowing this future, Ashan enrolls in the Sacred Academy of Awakeners to gather allies and destroy the ten fragments needed to summon the catastrophe. Complicating fate, Ashan meets a vampire meant to die by his hand. Instead of killing her, he forms a bond that defies destiny. Armed with overwhelming power and forbidden love, Ashan challenges a future that should not be changed. [Author’s Note:] Let me be crystal clear since some readers might get the wrong idea. I didn’t add [non-harem] as a joke. I mean it. There is no damn harem in this story. Yes, the MC will have romantic interest from multiple women. Yes, weird and unexpected things will happen. No, that does not magically turn this into a harem. If you’re here expecting ten girls orbiting the MC like collectibles, you’re in the wrong story. Non-harem means non-harem. Period.

In a world where fantasy and reality are intertwined, a lonesome writer tries to have a happy ending. This is a story about stories.

They handed him a rusted spear and told him to die. He pulled out a shotgun and thirty shells. This is a story of Aether and extreme pragmatism.

[VOID VISION UNLOCKED!] [DOMAIN OF OBLIVION UNLOCKED!] [OBLIVION INTEGRATION UNLOCKED!] With his Army of Oblivion, he fought endlessly. Not for power, not for glory, but for only one goal: survival. Completely unaware that his true battle lies in the secrets of the past.

What happens when creation and destruction come together? Sebastian’s life was defined by loss. Orphaned, abandoned, and beaten down by a world that seemed determined to crush him, he met his end alone on the streets, broken by poverty, sickness, and heartbreak. Yet death was not the end. He awakens in a void between worlds, confronted by a strange, otherworldly presence and a mysterious statue that hints at power beyond mortal comprehension. There, Sebastian burns and is reforged as a Nekros, an extra in the world of "The Celestial Arena." Thrown back into the living world, Sebastian must navigate a realm where morality is relative and every choice carries weight. As he experiments with his abilities, he encounters allies, rivals, and enemies who test not only his strength but his understanding of what it means to wield life and death. With the line between salvation and annihilation growing thinner by the day, Sebastian faces a choice that will determine the fate of the world itself: embrace his powers fully and reshape existence in his image, or sacrifice everything to restore balance and prove that even the most broken soul can leave a mark on eternity. discord invite--- https://discord.gg/vYusJqpV
