Now, she is trapped in a dangerous masquerade, forced to play the role of a woman she never knew, under the watchful gaze of a husband who seems just as haunted as he is obsessed.

"But this feels real," She whispered. Curiosity got the best of her as she went around the coffin, luckily, it wasn't locked. She took a deep breath before pulling it open. "Jesus Christ!" Rose exclaimed, putting her hand over her chest as she breathed hard. She stood frozen beside the coffin, staring at a young man with the most beautiful face she'd ever seen, lying still and comfortably inside the coffin. Was he dead?

Rose was still busy staring at the man's face when she felt something very icy touch her arm, she felt her heart drop to her stomach as she slowly turned her head to look at her arm, that's when she saw the white, slim, masculine fingers wrapped tightly around her wrist.

To get things started I would like to admit that this story does not bring much new to the table when it comes to the over-saturated Litrpg genre in terms of things like mechanics and power systems. Then what exactly am I trying to bring to the table with this work? A nice slow-paced novel about people maturing and growing older think of it as the re: zero or jobless reincarnation of Litrpgs. A story that tries to take into consideration how a worldwide system would affect the economics and culture of a world. A story that is much more character-focused than the typical heavy progression-focused novels this genre is known for. The RPG system, like any good power system, is there to actually explore the themes of the story and not just as a plot device for characters to get stronger. This is a story where we will see the growth of the Mc from being a baby to when he dies of old age. With plenty of heart-racing actions and intriguing plot developments along the way. Exploring themes like; What does it mean to improve at something and what does it mean to mature as a person?  How does magic,  the constant threat of monsters and people so much stronger than the average joe that they can destroy countries affect one's culture both on the micro and the macro scale? How people are affected by the culture in general? Generational trauma Nature vs Nurture Talent vs hard work  What is morality, society, and people's opinions on both? What does it mean to be human and what does it mean to be alive in the context of a world with multiple sapient species vastly different from one another in basic biology? All these questions are going to be explored from multiple angles using the system as a catalyst for those discussions. So if any of does questions sound interesting to you what are you waiting for, I'm sure you are going to love this story. PS - Chapters come out every Friday at about the same time.

There was war in hell. The flames of hell turned against itself and the demons tore each other apart. It was a terror to behold; one that the devil himself could not escape. Every other terrestrial being was against him, trying to take his power and throne. Knowing that he wouldn’t survive it, Lucifer fled from hell into the earth feeling regretful. His fall came from a woman whom he thought he had grown to love. But at that point, it all didn’t matter….he needed someone to will his power to…it was much better than leaving it in the possession of those demons. And while he was running out of time, he immediately gave it all to a prince in his mother’s womb before he vanished into eternity The prince; Francis was born and he grew just as powerful and as fierce as the devil himself. He was a devil, but he ruled on earth…unstoppable and strong willed. He was hardly referred to by his name and was mostly called the devil, right from when he was a child after a powerful seer revealed the reason behind his power. But even though Francis had all the power he wanted and would ever need, he had one restriction. To keep history from repeating itself, he was given just one rule, never to love a woman. **** But on the far side; in a village, lonely princess lived with no hopes of survival even though her father, the king was still alive. But it wasn’t much of a surprise since the royal family itself was the reason behind the princess’s tight chances of living.

They lived their lives in fear, not until one day, the queen was about to take her last breathe. She was poisoned by the king’s wicked wife. But before she died, she had just one wish: that her daughter Aurora avenges her death and take over the village by attaining a level of power and authority that could only come through one means….and it is to “Marry the devil” the strongest, ruthless, merciless and powerful king that lived. She knew she needed him to love her if she ever wanted to access his powers and make him revenge for her. And so, Princess Aurora was set on a journey to marry the devil who was warned to never love a woman. What happens when the devil falls in love? Would he receive the same fate as the previous Devil? Or will love change his fate? Will Aurora's determination lead her to a world of power, love and strength? Or will the devil's fate cause her a life time of peril and pain?

When the world collapsed, it wasn’t the dead that scared me—it was the living. The outbreak started like a whisper, spreading faster than anyone could react. Within weeks, cities crumbled, governments fell, and the streets belonged to the undead. At first, survival meant running, hiding, scavenging for whatever scraps I could find. But running only takes you so far. I found an abandoned industrial town, half-broken but defensible, and I made a choice—no more running. If the world was going to be rebuilt, it would start here. I built the walls, gathered survivors, and carved out a place worth fighting for. But out here, it’s not just the zombies that want you dead. Marauders, warlords, and desperate survivors will do anything to take what we have. If we want to live, we have to fight. If we want a future, we have to build one. This is my frontier. And I will defend it.
