Disclaimer: I'd received a few complaints from some readers that my MC is not a real villain, and I have to agree; if you're looking for some complete psycho MC who burns random farmer villages down just for fun then don't read. The MC is a ruthless man who does evil things from time to time, but only to his enemies or those he considers to be true scum. He gains no joy from tormenting strangers. Also don't read if you want a story about buying s*x slaves and r*ping them, that doesn't happen in this novel. He will treat the women he wants to be with as if they were normal people, whether they're slaves or not.

In the world of Mirage, ten gods have ruled over creation for eons, shaping the land, guiding mortals, and maintaining the delicate balance of existence. But when an ancient seal shatters, a force older and far greater than them awakens—the Primordial Gods, beings of unfathomable power who once shaped reality itself. As the Ten Gods scramble to understand the cause of the awakening, more seals begin to break, unleashing Primordial entities with the power to reshape Mirage—or destroy it entirely. With their rule threatened and their very existence at stake, the Ten are divided. Some seek to fight, others to flee, and a few dare to uncover the hidden force responsible for the return of the Primordials. As the heavens tremble and the mortal world teeters on the brink of annihilation, war erupts among gods, and alliances fracture. The Ten must face an impossible choice: stand together against an enemy they cannot hope to defeat, or betray one another in a desperate bid for survival. But as the final seals weaken, a darker truth emerges—one that could unmake Mirage itself. And the gods are running out of time.

In a world where Earth’s mana has been sealed away for millennia, ancient forces begin to stir in the depths. Due to a lack of human inhibition, a high scientific advancement and an advanced human ingenuity, an unborn Samuel Griffin is genetically altered in his mother's womb with the acquired DNA of Typhon, the primordial dragon of chaos, defeated by the gods in a cataclysmic war of old, essentially making him its physical reincarnation. As he grows, Samuel’s human experiences clash with his chaotic dragon tendencies, forcing him to navigate a delicate balance between his humanity and his primal instincts. With a team of equally capable and extraordinary allies, he confronts alien invaders and secretive factions hidden all over the world. When the sealed mana is finally unleashed, chaos ensues as creatures both ancient and new rear their heads. Samuel and his companions must fight to protect the Earth from internal and external threats that seek its destruction, all the while battling his own inner turmoil.

For centuries, witches and vampires have been bound by a blood-soaked feud, each side sworn to destroy the other. But when Selene Moreau, a powerful witch from an exiled bloodline, is captured by the ruthless vampire king, Damien Valcourt, their fates become entwined in a way neither could have foreseen. Selene is no ordinary witch—her magic is rumored to be the key to breaking an ancient curse that weakens Damien’s kind. Instead of killing her, he offers her a dangerous deal: if she helps him unravel the spell that keeps vampires bound to the darkness, he will spare her coven. But as Selene spends time within the vampire court, she begins to realize that everything she’s been taught about their kind is a lie. Worse still, she finds herself drawn to Damien—his cold cruelty masking a tragic past, his touch igniting a forbidden fire within her. As enemies plot against them from the shadows and the fragile peace between their worlds begins to crack, Selene and Damien must decide: betray their people for love, or destroy each other before destiny does it for them.

In a world where the Primordial Gods unleash chaos for their own amusement, mortals are granted Charisms—divine abilities—to fight against eldritch horrors emerging from dimensional rifts called Rends. These warriors, known as Eternals, serve as the gods’ chosen champions, battling for survival in a cruel, never-ending game. Tyros Celestorn was never meant to exist. Once a normal man named Aries, betrayed and murdered in his past life, he awakens in this apocalyptic world only to discover that he is different—the True Eternal, a being capable of wielding all twelve Charisms instead of just one. His very existence defies the will of the gods. Now, hunted by corrupted Eternals and watched by divine forces that want to see him destroyed, Tyros must navigate the chaos, uncover the truth behind his reincarnation, and seize control of his own destiny—before the gods rewrite the rules once again.

World, I'm coming to save you!” Noble Officials/Demon Sect/Heavenly Demon: “Alas, is reconciliation possible?” Elements: Chaotic times of Martial Arts, cyber cultivation, gates between two worlds

Gods, it was boiling in this useless excuse for a kingdom. Or maybe it felt that way because Celaena Sardothien had been lounging on the lip of the terra-cotta roof since midmorning, an arm flung over her eyes, slowly baking in the sun like the loaves of flat-bread the city’s poorest citizens left on their windowsills because they couldn’t afford brick ovens. And gods, she was sick of flatbread—teggya, they called it.

Synopsis of "Empire of Ashes and Vows" Sasha once stood by Matteo, a powerful mafia boss, building an empire with him from the ground up. Their love was intense, their bond unbreakable, until the day betrayal tore them apart. A tragic betrayal, a shattered heart, and a burning desire for revenge drove Sasha to leave the empire she helped create. For ten years, she disappeared into the shadows, nursing her wounds and plotting her revenge against the man who destroyed her life. Now, Sasha returns to the world she once ruled, but everything has changed. The empire Matteo built is crumbling under his leadership, his once unshakable power now a shadow of its former self. Despite the anger that fuels her every step, Sasha can’t ignore the lingering feelings for the man who once held her heart. Her revenge, however, will not be as straightforward as she thought. Rather than destroying Matteo outright, Sasha begins to sabotage his operations from within, causing a dangerous power struggle. Each move she makes brings her closer to him, and she soon realizes that her hatred is rooted in something deeper—a love she cannot forget. As the battle for control intensifies, Sasha is faced with a choice: to destroy Matteo completely and take her vengeance, or to give him a chance at redemption and reclaim the love they once shared. But in the ruthless world of the mafia, every decision has consequences, and betrayal runs deeper than they ever imagined. In a world built on loyalty, power, and broken vows, Sasha must decide what truly matters in the end—revenge or redemption, love or destruction. As the empire crumbles around them, their choices will determine not just their futures, but the fate of everything they once fought to build.

A modern engineer’s soul transmigrates into the body of a baron’s second son, inheriting the blighted fiefdom of Blightspire — a realm cursed by shadowbeasts and barren soil that drove its former lord to suicide. Rejecting despair, the protagonist employs Earth-born ingenuity to weaponize catastrophe: terraforming deadlands into fertile plains, converting refugee waves into a loyal workforce, and mining cursed meteorite ores to forge revolutionary alloys. When weekly Celestial Parcels rain down — cosmic storms spawning elemental sprites (green for crop mutation, violet for flora enhancement, gold for mineral deposits, blue for summoning rare creatures) alongside ravenous Eclipseborn horrors — he declares these invasions “Divine Deliveries,” harvesting monster cores to fuel arcane engines and arm Arcanotech Colossi (steel golems fused with spellfire reactors). His council of outcasts becomes legend: Vera Hexthrone, the "Cursed Maiden" whose misfortune bends probability into a siege-breaker Ironwarden Kael, a smith-priest hammering starlit metal into railway-mounted spell-cannons The Silent Scholars, heretics decoding meteor patterns to expose a pantheon’s millennia-old prison-break scheme Through three eras of defiance — Agricultural Reformation (bio-engineered crops outproducing rival duchies), Thunderforge Expansion (rail networks deploying artillery against leviathan-class voidbeasts), and Godshatter Gambit (hijacking celestial machinery to rewrite divine edicts) — the lord of Blightspire evolves from survivalist to sovereign. His final triumph? Not merely conquering the empire, but dismantling its celestial puppetmasters to ignite an Arcanotech Renaissance, where mortal-forged spellsteel outshines the gods’ dying light.
