TPZ: The Price of Zer0

WARNING: This webnovel delves into themes of madness, insanity, and distorted realities. As the story progresses, it may change your perception and evoke unsettling emotions. Reader discretion is advised. Take care to recognize when to step back if you feel overwhelmed. Don't worry though, it delves deeper into the aspect of insanity though, so most of it should be ok except a few parts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If a man is never born, is he dead? If a thing is never seen, does it exist? If a name is never spoken, does it carry meaning?" I do not ask these questions to be answered. I ask them because no one dares to. The universe is built on the arrogance of definition. Numbers, laws, identities—shackles that are forged in language, in memory, in time, or this theory that lingers in our brains called collective consciousness. But what of the spaces between? The void? Reality? The things that exist outside knowing, outside the gaze of men and gods? Or does it not exist at all? If so, how are we speaking about it? Paradoxical isn’t it? He was such a thing. A presence without a name. A shadow cast by nothing. Or nothing cast by a shadow? If history is a river, he was the drought. If men are measured by the weight of their deeds, he was the absence of gravity itself. He did not belong, not in this world, not in any world, because he was not of the world. Not forgotten. Not ignored. Not erased. Simply… he never counted. And yet, in the nothing, he saw everything. The weight of unspoken thoughts. The blood behind unshed tears. The truth in silence. The universe was full of things unseen, of wounds never given words, of horrors never given shape. And he understood. He understood that nothingness was not the absence of being, but the absence of limitation. He understood that a thing untethered by perception is a thing without chains. He understood that the moment a man asks, "What is the shape of nothing?"— —he has already begun to see it. The idea of liminalism or being liminal. He experienced it and it drove him not to insanity, but sent him spiraling into the depth of the abyssal word of all what it carried of meaning, something much much beyond than mere insanity, something that can not described with words, because it is not a reality, it is something simply…...beyond. Saying he was insane would be an understatement, mind you. And once seen, it can never be unseen. The world had built itself on the assumption that zero was empty. That nothing had no weight. That absence held no consequence. But they were wrong. Zero was the abyss between all things. The wound that preceded creation. The foundation of every lie called "truth." And the price of zero… was everything. As such, because he lost everything, He gained everything. 1 extra chapter = 2 powerstones

Descent of The Fallen Treant

Long ago, the gods created a world full of beauty & resources; ready to embrace all life that would come to inhabit it, the world started to become populated with animals, plants, and sentient beings like elves, beastmen, demons, humans, and more. At first, the races lived in harmony, and the gods granted blessings to help them grow, build, and hunt. It was wondrous, but then, conflict started to rise between the races; as time passed, darkness began to fester in their hearts: they grew envious of the others strengths, anxious & fearful at what they could do, disgusted at their appearances. Pressure continued to rise until it couldn’t any longer, and the Grand War descended upon those prepared and unprepared… The gods knew the sentient races couldn’t exist without conflict, as they themselves couldn’t, but to see how fast they have fallen into madness… Destruction erupted and came to every corner of the world, nothing was untouched by the war, millions of lives were gone in the blink of an eye for the gods, and there was no end in sight. The world that they all created together was being destroyed bit by bit by the war, but only when the races started committing unspeakable acts to each other and their own, even to the very world to gain unnatural power did they intervene. They all unified and came to an agreement. They descended to their now ruined world and forced the fighting to a close with their power and might. Once that was done, they enforced an enactment across the world; a price for all the terrible happenings during the Grand War. For all things, no matter how far away they were, they heard these words: "You had peace, you had hope, you all had a beautiful world, but now, you have BURNT it to the ground, you all have done sick, twisted deeds to gain the slightest edge in battle… We gave blessings, with the goal to help and spread growth, but you have absconded from our wishes and only used them for self-interest and murder… There was no need for such a large and bloody war to happen, yet this is what it came down to, the war wasn’t going to end before taking the entire world down with it. And so, we had no other choice but to get involved. We gods have decided upon a fitting punishment for ALL to live under… The world shall be refitted anew with resources to make up for what has been destroyed, burned, and the horrid damage to the planet will be reversed, however, since all of you created conflict with each other in a peaceful world, we thought you all would make peace with one another in a violent one. In 10 years time, monsters shall start roaming the world, spreading forth the destruction you all once wrought… Apart, you have no chance to survive the tide of change, but together, you will survive. That is all…prepare with these 10 years, and we wish you all the best of luck." The entire speech was done by the leader of the gods, the Goddess of Creation. And with a bright flash of light, they couldn't see anything, but once their vision returned, they were surprised. The gods were gone, and the world was no longer broken, scarred... but it wasn’t as beautiful as before the Grand War, this was an unspoken punishment from the gods: the world would NOT return to how it was, no matter how much they pleaded for its beauty to return. There was another untold punishment that everyone noticed imminently on reawakening, that their previous powers were now gone! All forms of power were reset to zero, and they would have to start from scratch! Without them being able to curse out the goddess for this indignation in fear of the incoming catastrophe, the races began to rebuild and train to recoup their strength. While they had made peace and worked mutually, there was always an underlying conflict, intolerance, lingering from the Grand War. As their time came to a close, things came to fruition just as the goddess said, monsters now roamed the world, spreading the havoc once sown by their own hands.

The Shattered Dominion

In a world that is torn between light and shadow, Kael Deryn is the notorious Eclipse Sovereign, who has accepted his fate as the villain who evokes throughout the empires. His cold and calculating pursuit of revenge against the gods who betrayed him is a chorus of destruction and manipulation, and he plays every single note with merciless accuracy. But when a hasty act of magic—an instant of absolute boredom—saves the life of a child, Kael’s life starts to spiral around. He is mistaken for a humble savior by the rising saint, Elaine Varess, every dark deed he commits is ridiculously branded as heroism. Soon, the factions from all over the empire come together under his unintentional banner, all proclaiming him as the prophesied savior that’s destined to destroy a tyrannical god, who is quite ironically Kael’s sworn enemy. Being caught in net of devotion, betrayal, and divine plots, Kael must steer through the chaos his new reputation brings him. As the boundary between identity and deception starts to fade, Kael has to face the ultimate irony: the villain who desired to destroy the world may actually have to save it. In the midst of hushed whispers of rebellion, ancient artifacts, and truths that can break reality, this is a tale of dark humor, high risks, and the pull of destiny. How do you destroy a system that has marked you as its hero? What does it mean to fight to gain you freedom when you yourself don’t believe in it? Dive into the shadows, where nothing is as it really seems and every choice comes at the price of humanity or maybe something even darker.

My Psycho Stepson and me

Lesly was just your typical kind of sadistic high school gym teacher, having her idyllic life disturbed when she was taken away by this strange butler, who informed her about her being the true heiress of a fallen family.  That wasn't all; he was asking her to sign the papers to marry a husband whom she had never met before. Normally, she would have run away and reported them to the police—if it weren't for them threatening her with the (for her) most important hostage. On her first day in the villa of her new husband, she barged in on her stepson, intertwined with a brunette girl, not stopping to do the deed just because of her presence. Clearly a psycho. Next was the husband, who enticed her with money if she stayed for a year, slept in his bed, and played his wife.  Lesly decided to go through with it for the good ol' money - however, after being introduced properly to her psycho stepson with ravishingly handsome looks, she had a feeling that things in this house would develop in a dangerous direction. And she should be proven right. First Volume: 'The Burning Man' is finished! I am going on hiatus with this because it was a hell of a ride for me as well. I think the big unveiling is done now, and I hope I answered most of the questions. I have a few ideas in mind for the second volume, but I wanted to write something new. The author is unpredictable, so maybe I take it on tomorrow again, but right now, I don't know. Thanks for all your support! (*ˊᗜˋ*)/ᵗᑋᵃᐢᵏ ᵞᵒᵘ*

The Heroines All Want to Kill Me

In the fantastical empire fraught with crises, the shadow of the Demon King looms ever closer. Frey, as the eldest son of a hero family that has endured for thousands of years, shoulders the mission of preventing the Demon King from devouring the world. It turns out that according to the family's prophecy book, his ancestor was teleported to this world after insulting the game "Dark Fantasy" in another world. The ancestor managed to achieve a satisfactory ending by relying on the game's knowledge. In the sequel, "Dark Fantasy 2", for a happy ending to be unlocked, the hero must first destroy the world to obtain the "system". In the previous "game", Frey committed countless evil deeds. After successfully obtaining the "Pseudo - Evil Path" system, he was reborn to the day before entering the academy. However, his evil actions made five heroines harbor intense hatred for him in the previous life. After being reborn, they awakened their past - life memories and were bent on revenge. These heroines included the future prime minister, the great mage, the saintess, Kania, the cursed dark mage, and the imperial princess. Before entering the academy, Kania, who served as a maid in the duke's family and was a dark mage, attempted to assassinate Frey several times, such as by poisoning his food. Frey defused the crises with his "Intuition of the Pseudo - Evil". He also discovered that Kania was on the verge of death due to a curse, and the effect of the curse would weaken when she was by his side. The key to saving her might lie with her younger sister. Therefore, while hinting at his coveting of her sister to maintain her hatred, Frey injected vitality into her, even though it would shorten his own lifespan. After entering the academy, at the welcome party, the nobles indulged in extravagance and bullied the commoners. Frey rescued Irina, the future great mage who was caught by the nobles. He used the system skills "Information Detection" and "Emergency Defense" to resolve the fatal curse and earned evil points. Upon moving into the dormitory, Kania became Frey's attendant, which was the result of her request to Frey's father. If Frey caused trouble, he would be expelled from the academy. Meanwhile, Frey found that he could neither view nor upgrade his attributes except for his spiritual power. He could only accumulate points by completing tasks. Moreover, Perosh Astrad, the "Pure White Saintess", also harbored a strong murderous intent towards Frey due to her past - life memories. In this perilous world, Frey has to deal with the pursuit of the heroines while solving the empire's problems. Whether he can accumulate points, unravel the mysteries, defeat the Demon King, and survive remains a suspenseful question.
