From Demon To Hero

A hero must be compassionate, selfless and courageous. But that isn't all. Because a hero must also be powerful. In this world, power is everything. Strength decides who gets to save lives and who's left with community service. That’s why I was nothing — a rank 50 E-Class reject, skating through the streets, saving what little I could while the real heroes battled gods and monsters. Then one day, I died. Almost. Dragged into the abyss, I was given a second chance: the Forever Core. An armor that evolves. A system that never stops adapting. Every battle, every hit, every mistake, I come back stronger. Now, the monsters that once crushed me can’t kill me the same way twice. I must adapt. Evolve. I must grow stronger and fight harder. Because humanity is worth fighting for. Even if I have to burn every villain alive to prove it.

Caliste was once humanity's greatest hero—admired, celebrated, and ultimately sacrificed. He gave everything for others, and in the end, it only led to his death. But fate had other plans. Reincarnated as the son of the strongest being in existence, the Demon King. One might expect him to resist, to rebel against the Demon King and kill him once and for all. But why bother? Being the good guy led to nothing but betrayal and death. This time, he'll live for himself. Women, pleasure, power—he will claim it all, as any true demon would. ----------------- Disclaimer: This book has mature content.

In the year 2026, the world is shattered when massive structures descend from the sky, crashing to Earth and unleashing chaos. Humanity is transported to the Tutorial, a brutal 100-floor trial designed to forge survivors into Hunters. Those who conquer it return to an Earth overrun by monstrous gates, where survival is a daily battle. Among them is Cosmic, a young man who never received the Tutorial’s power, living a normal life until his Hunter friends drag him into a deadly gate. Facing a terrifying dragon, Cosmic meets his end—but his story is far from over. Cosmic is the latest reincarnation of a soul chosen by the goddess Aetheria to save humanity. Across countless lives, he has been reborn as different races and classes, each life a step in his journey to become the Great Sage, a being destined to guide humanity through its eternal struggle. In one life, he was Eryndor, a human hero chosen to defeat the Demon King. Betrayed by his companions after fulfilling his destiny, Eryndor’s soul returned to Aetheria, who vowed to give him another chance. In another, he was Kaelion, a Demon Lord who rose to power in the underworld. Though feared by many, Kaelion sought to unite demons and humans, only to be struck down by those who feared his vision of peace. He has also lived as Lunara, an Elven Archmage who mastered the arcane arts to protect her forest home from destruction, and as Tharok, a Dwarven Blacksmith whose legendary weapons turned the tide of countless battles. Each reincarnation brings Cosmic closer to understanding the true nature of the eternal struggle—a cycle of conflict between demons, gods, and mortals. Now, as Cosmic, he must uncover the secrets of his past lives, harness the power of his many classes and races, and confront the forces that threaten to tear the world apart. From humble beginnings to the heights of power, Cosmic’s journey is one of sacrifice, growth, and the unyielding will to protect a world teetering on the brink of destruction.

Auriel spent his entire life playing by the rules. He worked hard, helped others, and believed in the power of the law.

Prince Adrien of Eldwyn has spent his entire life being used — a political pawn, pretty and powerless, traded for alliances and kept in a golden cage. When his father announces his arranged marriage to Prince Kaelen of Umbra, Adrien knows this is no ordinary match. Kaelen is feared across kingdoms — a man whispered to be the son of a demon, cold and merciless, with blood that brings ruin. But nothing could prepare Adrien for the man he meets. Kaelen is beautiful, yes — but there’s something dangerous in his quiet strength, in the way his golden eyes watch Adrien like he’s something precious… or something breakable. Their marriage begins with distrust and tension, a battle of wills behind closed doors. And yet, as war looms and enemies circle, Adrien starts to see the cracks in Kaelen’s armor — the loneliness, the rage, and the terrifying power he struggles to control. When desire sparks between them, it’s a fire that threatens to consume them both. But the deeper Adrien falls, the more he realizes there are secrets in Kaelen’s blood… and loving him might just cost Adrien his soul. In a world of kings and demons, where love is dangerous and power even more so, Adrien must decide: is Kaelen the monster everyone fears — or the only man who can truly set him free?

*Author's other work (The Dragon Prince's Bride)* *** After surviving the utter destruction of the entire world, Kiva Quin and her best friend Skye Gailey find themselves in another world. The world of the ones who destroyed their home. The world of the demons. Kiva, who never believed in the existence of demons, now has to live in a world full of them. They've taken her family from her and thus she harbors a hatred, vowing to take her revenge and kill the one responsible for the destruction of her world: Leonis Rein; supreme ruler of the demon world. Leonis is a man who doesn't believe in love. He believes in taking possession of whatever catches his attention… And she did. He meets Kiva, and her aggressive, persistent nature draws him to her. Slowly, Leonis starts harboring an unhealthy obsession for Kiva. Kiva would do any and everything to put a knife in the heart of Leonis, or die doing so. But Leonis doesn't plan on letting death take her. At least not yet. *** Excerpt Holding both my hands tightly together behind me with just one of his own, Leonis pressed his broad chest upon my back as I wriggled and try to get out of his stronghold. A gesture I knew was futile because he was strong, very strong. "Run if you like." His whisper sounded next to my left ear, and I wished to deny it, I wished to tell myself I don't feel it, but I do. I feel a certain tingle every time this demon is this close to me. "I will pursue you. Hide if you must, I shall find you, and die if you choose, I shall make death cough your soul back into your cold body." I knew it. He will never let me go.
