Enslaved

In a world where muscle is magic and size is power, Ged, a ruthless drug lord, seeks to push his physique beyond all limits. But the ruling authorities, terrified of what an unchecked body sorcerer might become, strictly regulate the art of body sorcery. They brand Ged a crime against nature, condemning him for daring to grow beyond mortal limits. Even worse, the world itself is a living, breathing tyrant, demanding repayment for every ounce of mass its inhabitants consume, punishing those who dare to grow. For Ged, that means a debt he can never repay, a sentence of eternal servitude for the crime of merely existing. What began as the dream of a bodybuilding enthusiast, an admiration for those who defied their physical limits, has twisted into an underground war against those who deny him the right to grow. He tried to be reasonable, but… Rebellion alone was not enough. Left with no other choice, only total annihilation would suffice. “They dare forge these chains to be unbreakable?!” “Watch as I break free from this enslavement and suffering!” “Reality is no longer fixable. I will tear it apart and replace it with myself!” What to Expect: ** Muscle is Magic – Power isn’t measured in mana or qi; it’s measured in kilograms. Expect brutal, cultivation-inspired workouts as the MC physically ascends from mere human to cosmic god. ** A Drug Lord Turned Reality-Shattering Anti-Hero – Ged is cunning, ruthless, and dangerously close to villainy. In a world of treacherous alliances and relentless enemies, expect dark humor, high-stakes action, and power plays. ** A Dystopian Sentient Planet That Enslaves Its Inhabitants – A unique setting where survival depends on body modification, brutal gang wars, underground cave explorations, and evading the iron grip of corrupt enforcers. ** A Fusion of Great Works – If Scarface, I Shall Seal the Heavens, and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure had a mind-bending, reality-shattering love child this would be it. Ged isn’t just fighting to dismantle an oppressive system. He’s fighting to obliterate existence itself. Witness the rise of a body sorcerer who will grow so massive that he becomes reality itself!

In the year 3147 the Roman Imperium had finally achieved its goal of colonizing its own corner of the galaxy. Unlike in our own world the Rome of this one never fell, but instead grew to encompass the whole of the earth, and overtime spread itself, and humanity, among the stars. Yet even with the marvelous advancements in technology, healthcare, welfare, and every other category required for a thriving society. There is still one roman tradition that refuses to die. GLADIATORS!! And we should all be glad for it, because during the year 3149, just two years after the long and exhausting colonization campaigns were ended, mankind learned that it was not alone in the galaxy, let alone the universe. It had just stepped onto a much bigger stage where entire planets and even star systems were used as bargaining chips in universal gladiator games. Wars on a galactic scale are far too destructive to simply be allowed, if left unchecked the vast majority of life in the universe would cease to be. Therefore each race recognized by the galactic or universal council (it changes depending on the scale of the race itself) must submit champions or gladiators to represent them in the games. The winners gain unfathomable rewards, the losers perish or worse have their entire species enslaved. Please join our hero as he embarks upon his own perilous journey as a lanista, will he rise above the masses, or fall like so many others before him? Or perhaps his own latent gifts may bring him to a height, or depth hitherto unexplored by any before.

In the northern part of the world, a long-standing battle between various races and the demon race has finally reached its end. The Demon Lord, a figure with black hair, red eyes, rules from her obsidian palace, having repeatedly defeated the Goddess, the strongest being in the world. However, she refrains from killing her, knowing she will only be reborn to lead another attack. As the goddess kneels before her, badly injured and helpless, the sounds of explosions echo outside, signaling the imminent victory of the alliance. Despite her immense power, the demon lord acknowledges the demon's overall weakness compared to humans and the Alliance. The development of fighting energy and mana has allowed ordinary humans to fight demons, leading to the demon army's defeat. Aware of the Alliance's intent to enslave the abyssal demon, the Demon Lord decides to cast a forbidden spell that will cost her life. As the Alliance forces storm the palace, they hesitate upon sensing the spell's energy. The Demon Lord vows to resist and be reborn to save her people. Meanwhile, the goddess reflects on the demon lord's past treatment of her and acknowledges her respect and dedication to her people. As the demon lord prepares to cast the spell, the goddess asks if she can abandon her plan and live freely.

"You can't leave me. You are bound to me for eternity." He forcibly grabbed her, pinning her on the wall, his hands started caressing her sensitive spots. "And your body... doesn't LIE," he whispered sensually, lips gently nibbling on her earlobe. Her breath hitched, her heartbeat racing.  Seeing her struggle to resist him, he smirked triumphantly. "You yearn for my touch and my kiss. You also desire me." The next thing she felt was his lips roughly brushing against hers in a hungry kiss. **** Neglected by the King Enslaved by the Queen Bullied by her royal siblings Hated by The Kingdom's Hero Ostracized by her own people EVE HAD ENOUGH!

David was once a man of wealth and prestige, living a seemingly perfect life. But beneath the surface of success, betrayal festered like a wound waiting to be torn open. The wife he adored, the brother he trusted, and the family he sacrificed for all turned against him. Their treachery destroyed not only his spirit but his body—leaving him crippled, abandoned, and with nothing left to live for. In his final act of defiance, David orchestrated their deaths, yet vengeance did little to heal the wounds carved deep into his soul. With nothing left, he welcomed the abyss, ending his own existence… only to awaken anew. Reborn in a realm beyond mortality, David found himself in a divine world ruled by celestial beings—the very gods who had watched him suffer without mercy. But he was no longer the broken man they had ignored. He was something else. Something darker. Something far more powerful. With his memories intact and new abilities awakening, David vowed to shatter the hierarchy of the divine. He would bring the gods to their knees, enslaving them, bending them to his will, and exacting the ultimate retribution upon those who had forsaken him. He would turn the divine realm into his personal dominion of vengeance, where once-mighty deities would serve, obey, and kneel before their new master. But in his quest for ultimate power, will he remain a man seeking justice, or will he become a monster greater than the gods themselves? Author’s Thought: Inspired by Reverse Insanity, I aim to craft scenarios far darker and more twisted than even Gu Yue Fang Yuan, the Great Love Immortal Venerable, has ever devised. I will depict the truest nature of humanity—its rawest instincts, its deepest desires, and the relentless pursuit of power. Through this story, I shall showcase the essence of a truly living being—one unshackled by morality, untouched by mercy, and driven solely by the will to survive and dominate.

No matter how many times forgiveness surfaces, revenge is equally likely to occur. This is the tale of a man who has endured countless betrayals throughout his life. One might even say he's been betrayed by his own fate. Yet, he has always chosen to forgive and move forward with a cheerful smile. Revenge never really occurred to him— not even once.

With his newly acquired body, he starts his life as a Mage Class Adventurer, only to face the dark reality of the world.

What darkness shrouds this world? One must join him on his journey to discover the truth. As he continues surviving in this new world with certain ambition and purpose, he also acquires a 'System' to enhance his potential. With each level and skill upgrade, he conquers the chaos and earns a title no one ever will ever be able to attain. [“Do read if you feel like reading my creation.

It hurts, doesn't it?" he murmured, his voice a dark caress that sent a shiver down her spine. Amelia nodded, her eyes never leaving his as she felt the wetness between her legs grow even more. With a smug smile, Enzo's hand moved from her thigh to cup her left breast, his thumb flicking over the nipple. It was a gentle touch, almost soothing after the sting of his slap. But she knew it was a prelude to something more. He leaned over her, his hard length pressing against her thigh. She felt a thrill of fear and anticipation. This was it the moment she'd been dreading and craving all at once. He reached for his belt, unbuckling it with a smoothness that spoke of experience. Her eyes widened as he freed his cock, standing tall and proud before her. It was thick and long, a stark contrast to the tenderness of his earlier touch. She knew what was coming, and she was both scared and excited. "Look at me, Amelia," he whispered, his eyes dark with need. She met his gaze, her breath shallow and uneven. He positioned himself between her legs, his hand guiding himself to her entrance. Her body tensed as she felt the tip of his erection against her. "Relax," he murmured, his voice soothing despite the intensity in his eyes. "This will only hurt for a moment."

She gulped, her hands turns cold as she still kept staring into his eyes, trying to find an answer but she didn’t find one. He closed his eyes and then opened them again, looking at her with a beautiful smile, saying, “don’t worry, I will find him and then make you kill him by you own hand”.

Her eyes widen as she turned to look at him, unable to process what just happened. “You are so damn addictive, bloom” He whispers, before walking away, carrying her like a precious flower.

But the Glyphs are alive, hungering to resurrect their creators: the Syndicate, merciless architects who abandoned humanity eons ago. To survive, Kael must decide whether to wield the language of gods or destroy it. But every word has a price, and the Syndicate’s dreadnoughts are stirring in the void. What if silence is the only truth left?

They deserve what happens to them. Ever since they enslaved us, ever since they shackle us underground to bring them their ore or chain above ground to harvest their grain. We suffered, while they fattened their bellies. No more, now we deserve justice. We will ravage through their countryside, we shall burn their homes, and slaughter their young. For now, our rebellion has begun. The time of my people’s slavery ends with me for I will lead my people to greatness. The Cinari will do anything to stop me, with their ancient war machines and pathetic armies. But I will push them back and claim what is rightfully mine. We built their Empire with our blood and tears. It is time we take it back. When I was a slave, they called me M-24:6. But as a free man, they know me as Marak.
