Damien The Merman

"If somehow you could rewrite your life's greatest sins." Damien Vryce, a hard-hearted killer, was hanged for tyranny. He found himself awoken one year ahead of his fall. Having recollections from his past, he swore to make amends and save himself from the gallows. In the path of redemption lay treachery, conspiracies under the surface, and an unlikely, but hot love with the unknown woman, Amara Draven. As Damien sows the seeds of distrust by laying ruin to his past empire of fear, he recognizes that redemption considers the acknowledgement of the sins that have been committed along with the crossing of the line from sin to repentance. An entire kingdom lies in the threshold of war, enemies imbued with greed lurk in the shadows, and the second chance for Damien may well be the last. 20 power stones = 2 extra chapter 4 golden ticket = 2 extra chapter

[WSA ENTRY 2025] "Seriously? Of all the people I could’ve become, I end up as him?" Damien, a shut-in who spent his days cursing at authors for bad plot twists, was killed by a mysterious woman—only to wake up as Alden Draven, a forgettable extra in his favorite novel. The kind of guy who appears once, contributes nothing, and dies miserably. Determined to change his fate, Damien tried to stay under the radar… until he realized something wrong. The story isn’t following the plot. Characters are acting out of place. And worst of all— "Wait… is there another transmigrator screwing up the plot?" Now, between dodging death flags, unraveling the mystery, and dealing with a dangerously obsessed yandere, Damien’s only goal is simple: To Survive. _____________________ DM ME (Discord)- crimsonfable0737 ----------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

After transmigration, Lin Yue could hear a voice whispering in his ear every day, sharing all sorts of secrets with him. Small matters like the thoughts of the girl next door, to great mysteries like the secrets of the heavens, the voice persisted daily, broadcasting randomly. He originally wanted to live an unremarkable life, but in this world of Xianxia dynasties where mortals are considered as insignificant as weeds, the fate of an ordinary man without power is no longer in his own hands. Thus, he had no choice but to stop being 'just a person'. 'Your Majesty the Empress, you wouldn't want your secret of treason to be revealed by others, right?'

—¿Quién te tocó? —preguntó él, su mirada sombría bajando hacia ella y cuando no respondió, su voz retumbó en la habitación—. ¿QUIÉN? —El mayordomo que estaba cerca de la pared habló temblorosamente: — Señor, fue el señor Reverale —la cara de Damien se tornó agria, su mandíbula marcándose en ira giró su rostro hacia el lado donde el mayordomo estaba detrás. —Tráiganme al hombre. —¿A-ahora? —tartamudeó el mayordomo—. Era la hora de la noche. Damien, que no había roto el contacto visual con la chica frente a él, empujó su mano contra la pared que ahora descansaba al lado de la cabeza de su hermosa chica. Girando su cuerpo, primero miró a su mayordomo que tenía la cabeza inclinada. Con gran coraje, el mayordomo alzó la vista para encontrarse con los ojos de su Amo: — ¿Tiene usted algún otro momento mejor? ¿O debería ser después de que le tuerza el cuello? —Damien preguntó con calma inclinando su cabeza—. No un segundo después, el mayordomo salió corriendo de la habitación para volver con el señor Reverale después de veinte minutos. —Damien, ¿vamos a tener una fiesta del té nocturna? —El señor Reverale vino a saludar pero el amo de la casa tenía otros planes—. Al ver el cuchillo que estaba clavado en la manzana sobre la mesa, lo alcanzó para sacarlo. Justo cuando el señor Reverale iba a intercambiar un apretón de manos con él, Damien tomó su mano para colocarla sobre la mesa. En un movimiento rápido como si estuviese cortando cebollas, cortó los cuatro dedos de la mano del hombre, haciéndole chillar y llorar de dolor. —Nadie toca lo que es mío. Estoy seguro de que esto te lo recordará la próxima vez que incluso pienses en tocarla —suspiró Damien como si estuviera cansado de decirle a la gente que mantuviera sus sucias manos lejos de sus pertenencias.

Found abandoned on Halloween night as a child, wearing a mask she’s forbidden to remove and clutching a cryptic note, Cora’s existence has been a riddle she’s never been able to solve. When she gains admission to the prestigious Oscar Island University—a school renowned for its exclusivity and shrouded in mystery—Cora hopes to escape her past and embrace a new beginning.

‘All it took was getting caught in breaking the rules.’ She was the delinquent student. He was the priest who owned a black cat, and theirs was a union forged from the embers of hell. —— “Somebody is getting curious,” the first girl said. “It wouldn’t be the first time,” a man’s voice replied. “Shake the curiosity off her.” “Is it who I think it is?” An older woman questioned. The first girl nodded. “We’re not practically close, but it looks like she has a leverage.” “I told you all to be on the low,” a stern man’s voice interrupted. “We cannot stir things up now when there’s a recent death! Are you forgetting that there’s a new inclusion to the priests? Not one, not two, but three for goodness sake!” A hush fell amongst them, the man’s anger reverberating. “We’ve been on the low, I’m making sure of that,” the older woman said. “What leverage do you think she has?” The first man asked. The girl exhaled. “Didn’t say, but she kept asking questions.” “Do something about it,” the harsh man said, “or you know, it’s everyday students fall off the staircase, and it’s not hard to call it suicide.” —— When Ivie touched people, she could see excerpts from their past or their future, when Ivie touched Father Chibuike, she only saw darkness. Together they would fight the shadows of death that made the students of St. Stephen Immaculate college commit suicide. She could have escaped her twisted fate, but she agreed to hold the priest’s secret, and soon she told him hers!

After playing a variation of the poker game, Shadow’s Hand, Damien Pearce unexpectedly awakened in an unfamiliar world. Stripped of all kinds of information in the world he was thrown into, Damien now had to navigate it through wits and guts. Amidst his search for information, he discovered that he seemed to be a part of the world as a Transcendent Investigator, otherwise known as TI. The TI seemed fearful and revered among the people in this world. They were responsible for catching Transcendent(s) who misused their power. But was that the reason for his transfer? “Do I or do I not belong in this world?” Damien questioned his presence constantly.

Almost 1000 years ago, when men sought to be like gods, the black Lily cult decided to make a god of their own, Damien, but something went wrong, turning the “god” into a devil. He caused havoc on the earth so much that heaven itself had to shut him down. 800 years later, Harriet Andrada Brown, a 17-year-old high school senior in her last year, who had been fascinated with the supernatural for as long as she could remember—more specifically, devils. On the first day of her school field trip, she came face-to-face with a mysterious boy she had never seen before; he was about her age. She later came to know him as Damien. Through the excursion, they had various encounters that led her to believe he was no ordinary boy, but her curiosity ended as they graduated, putting an end to their meeting, or so she thought. Months later, they find themselves at the same college. Convinced she’s being stalked, she decided to confront him, which ends up taking her to his home. Unknown to her, this boy, Damien, turned out to be a devil—the very devil she had been looking for all along. While in his house, she accidentally gets cursed, cursed to have a part of his power lodged in her, making her a target for the forces who want said power. Now she’s living her life, trying to make it through each day with a death sentence around her neck. With the help of Damien and the other devils, will she survive, or will the curse cut her down before she can be saved?

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

The fantastical tale of a Survivor, with fantasy mixed in. For those who like light reads, or simple narratives, turn away. Your heart will water, your eyes will break and vice versa. But if you like it hot and heavy, with plenty of drama and 'all-too-realism', we've got you! please note that this is a tale of someone real, with things changed, for privacy reasons, but with fantasy mixed in, because, come on, noone wants a straight sob story. so the story will suddenly, sharply diverge from reality, as it simply is what was felt at the time. but if you can handle that, and haven't been turned off yet, then I personally invite you to get a drink, grab a blanket, cuddle up to the fire, and listen carefully. For I am the Teller of Tales, and the Weaver of Dreams.
