Fate Zero Assassin

On Earth, Alice was a name whispered in the darkest corners of the underworld. For over two decades, she had lived as a shadow—silent, precise, and deadly. A 50-year-old assassin with a heart as cold as her blade. Betrayal had never crossed her mind. Until it did. She died under the blood-red sky, not with fear—but rage. Rage for the betrayal. Rage that she hadn't seen it coming.But death… wasn't the end. The soul of Alice crossed dimensions and reincarnated. Alice—now in a world where fists spoke louder than words—was determined not to remain weak. She would rise. No matter how long it took, no matter how much blood was spilled, she would climb to the top. Not as a hero. Not as a villain. But as a survivor. And so, her new journey began.

“When the sun died, the world didn’t end. It changed.” Kael Serrin is one of the last survivors of a world swallowed by twilight. When humanity fled into bunkers and shadows, something else came through: The Rift—a cosmic wound that spills horrors into the world and leaves only monsters in its wake. Those who survive the Rift’s touch are changed. Marked. Cursed. Kael wakes to find the Mark of Dusk burned into his flesh and a new power whispering in his mind. Now taken to a brutal facility known as the Riftline, he’s forced into a lethal training program with others like him—test subjects turned weapons in the war against the Hollowborn. But power comes at a price. The Mark feeds on memory, emotion, even time—and the more Kael uses it, the more something inside him begins to awaken. He doesn’t know who to trust. He doesn’t know if he’ll survive. He only knows one thing: He has to get back to his sister—even if it means becoming the very monster the world fears.

Leo awakens in a world he doesn’t recognize, with no memory of who he is or why he’s there. All he knows is that survival isn’t just a necessity—it’s his only chance to uncover the truth. Thrown into a brutal test for assassins on a hostile alien planet, Leo quickly discovers an extraordinary instinct for combat and evasion—abilities that feel second nature, yet remain a mystery even to him. But as the blood-soaked trials unfold, whispers of his lineage begin to surface. In a universe where gods are eternal and invincible, Leo carries the blood of the one being who defied that rule: the Timeless Assassin, a legend feared by mortals and deities alike. Now, hunted for what he represents and burdened by a legacy he can’t yet comprehend, Leo must forge his path through a deadly labyrinth of enemies, alliances, and cosmic conspiracies—all while piecing together the fragments of his forgotten past. For in the shadows of his fractured identity lies a truth that could shake the heavens themselves. -------- NOTE - The MC in this story is a cunning vigilante type character who is morally gray and will often make questionable choices not befitting a traditional 'Hero' type character.

A man rejected by the will of the world he grew up in for all of his life, and a genius with infinite potential who fell as a result of making a risky bet. Under the machinations of the deceased Heavenly Emperor, Huang Xian, two unfortunate souls from entirely different worlds got saved and fused together into a new whole, adopting the identity of the latter–Theodore Winter, the heir to one of the Supreme Pillars of the Heavenly Court. As an eon-spanning competition to decide the next generation of Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Empress began, it brought with it a game of wits, power and plots that would shake the Heavenly Court to its core. Reincarnators, Transmigrators and Regressors were barely qualified to chase after the unprecedented monsters that had been brought into being for the express purpose of rising above the rest. Battles between peers were like peeling an onion–nobody ever knew just how many cultivation realms and Talents the other had hidden away to catch his opponents off guard. With a saint-like image and the heart of a devil, Theodore Winter entered the fray. Unbeknownst to all, other than returning triumphantly, he was entrusted with another task: To kill Huang Xian’s murderer–his wife, the Heavenly Empress! ------------------------- Read advance chapters (by paying for my meals) on Patreon: • https://www.patreon.com/sh1ro My novel series "Reincarnation Cycle's Unfortunate Bug" on Amazon: • https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYHGRR8M/ Discord Server (currently under construction): • https://discord.gg/NdAjjmXSDh ------------------------- Hi there, this is Shiro / the author. Just one little cautionary warning here: Due to being set in an entirely alternate world from ours, while some terms and concepts might seem familiar at first glance, many in actuality are not. In canon, the World's Will of a world exactly like our own 'got inspired' by memories that it secretly glimpsed from the Heavenly Emperor, thereby creating extremely loosely related concepts in its own universe. So never expect anything to work in the same way as something that you are already familiar with, because chances are very high that it won't be the same at all.

There are no chosen ones. No destined saviors. Only survivors of a system that collapsed and kept pretending it worked. In a universe torn apart by the Void, fragments of reality remain— stitched together by desperate beings. Shukan Ashikaga is one of them. Framed for the death of his family. Haunted by power he doesn’t understand. Once bonded to Chronos, a Shunogai who chose law over loyalty, Shukan now walks with the shadow of a power that no longer chooses him. Now he leads a squad of outcasts through timelines that shouldn’t exist, hunted by things that don’t follow cause and effect. But something deeper is waking. Something older than the Void. Something that watches every step like a reader already halfway through the book. The rules are changing. The glyphs are whispering. And Shukan may not be a protagonist. He might be the reason it all ends. - SHUNOGAI - Rewrite the law. Break the fate. Burn the timeline.

I died. Just a regular guy, nothing special. No legacy. No second chances. Or so I thought. Next thing I knew, I woke up in a fantasy novel I barely remembered reading… in the body of Cain Thorne—the sidekick who betrays the hero and gets killed like trash early on. Yeah. That guy. People already hate me. The hero wants me dead. And I didn’t even do anything. It wasn’t me who tried to steal someone’s power—it was the original Cain, before I ended up in his body. But no one cares about that. They don’t see Ren Asher. They see a traitor. A snake. Someone not worth saving. Then I heard it. [Mimic System Activated] Copy powers, skills, traits… but only if I beat the person who owns So yeah, maybe I’m not the hero of this world. But if I have to fight to survive—then fine.

A fast-paced story of assassination picking off his adversaries and leaders one by one. How he attained a fearful reputation, worry not, because we’re cutting to the core of the issue with an insight into the real assassin's code. What’s more, a hallmark of the killings was made public as possible so as to sow maximum fear, overwhelmingly ending in the assassin’s death. He turned himself into a calculating machine, an extremely terrifying assassin that would give nightmares to the enemies and feared by the underworld including the SAS, CIA, and M16 Government. Of course, this was no trivial task requiring both skill and training. The greatest benefit of becoming a skilled fighter was mentored by two elderly couples who were not in this world that has unimaginable power of life forces. A true story with fantasy. Let’s rock on….

A failure. But even a Zero has meaning.

The Island Guild crowned a new star—[Demolisher], a merciless S-rank usurper—while erasing Blaze’s legacy like ash in the wind. His old comrades? They toasted to his demise. His family? Believed him dead. But The System hums with secrets: - Skill [Phoenix Core]:“Resurrection is only the first spark.” - *Quest [Vengeance of the Forsaken]:* “Burn the liars. Burn the guild. Burn the truth into their bones.” Warning:“Dungeons are not your only enemy.” --- Redemption is a path paved with fire. Ryder returns to his crumbling hometown, vowing to vanish into obscurity—until he uncovers a truth darker than any dungeon’s heart. The guild’s betrayal runs deeper. Monsters wear human faces. And The System demands more than revenge… It demands a reckoning.

The world follows a normal timeline, its people living in peace. But this is no ordinary world─it is tainted by magic. However, with magic woven into its very fabric, this world became home to dominant and intelligent species─humans and demons. Magic was bestowed upon the world by Lord Kai. To maintain balance, he shared his power among his three sons─Gedo, Kiyan, and Drako. But when one of them defied his will, he was sealed away. This act of punishment ignited a thirst for vengeance among the demons, driving them to seek power strong enough to erase humanity. To defend themselves, humanity turned to one of Lord Kai’s sons, who bestowed fragments of his power upon them. This gift awakened a new breed of warriors—humans blessed with magic, known as Assassins. Determined to grow stronger, the Assassins embark on a perilous journey to confront the Demon King, whose insatiable thirst for power threatens the world's very existence.

(!The credit for the Book Cover goes to the creator, it isn't mine!) It is a hard living in the new age of the modern world, on Earth. Especially if you did not have any Abilities; it was the case for Quinn. His parents were ambassadors, and secretly, Assassins working for the 'greater good'. Wars were quite a frequent occurance on Earth, leaving only ravaged remains of the once beautiful planet. Although, the once frequent wars had stopped and the world finally entered a fleeting age of peace, the larger powers were in a deadlock and in high geopolitical tension. The majority of the interstellar planets and bases were owned by Capitalist powerhouses that held only base value in high regards and sought after strong trans-humans: an evolved species of Humans that were compatible with Ability Dews that were found on alien planets and could extract and use different types of supernatural Abilities themselves. Quinn's parents were sent on an obvious su**ide-mission on the battlefront of some planet by the Governance of Earth, to 'fight and serve' their home-planet by fighting off the opposition consisting of a terrorist group called the "Elementals", and secretly, a whole another unknown enemy... Receiving their last, parting gift, Quinn got his hands on something that was completely out of scope for normal Humans, or any other intelligent race that could possibly or ever will exsist. It was of unknown origins when his parents found it, and only he would be the one to discover its true functioning and creator. He would become something that was nothing like a Human... he would forsake his life and living, only to find the truth about the artefact and why it chose him. He would fight enemies of the peaceful inhabitants of Earth in hopes to protect those that he once loved, when he was still Human. Furthermore, he would fight other beings in the shadows of different realms; discover secrets of the Universe and the one above it all. No, not God; nor the Great Old Ones. Nay, not even the Outer Gods. But, the one and only... above creation itself: a dream that birthed it; the Absolute Being. Existing in the Real World, out of this wretched Dream of his. Only by meeting his real origins and awakening, would Quinn be able to escape this accursed cycle that only he knew the truth of; alone, would he protect the mortals... in hopes of protecting only those that he loved.

Kenji and Reika Kurozawa never wanted to run a family of assassins. But when Kenji’s parents died, they had no choice. Their will tied him and Reika to the top, and walking away wasn’t an option—not unless they wanted to end up dead or worse. Their parents had made sure of that, keeping them uneducated, unqualified for normal jobs, and way too deep in the family business to escape. Kenji isn’t the first to feel trapped. His older brother and plenty of others ran while they still could. After that, the family cracked down, banning school so no one else got any bright ideas about leaving. And now, Kenji gets it. The deeper he digs into his family’s past, the more he realizes—there’s no end to how bad it gets. The Kurozawas built their empire on pure horror, and if he tries to tear it down, his whole family is going down with it. And as if that wasn’t bad enough? A long-lost family member just walked back in, bringing a whole mess of problems with them. On top of that, Kenji’s kids—reckless, clueless, and constantly screwing up—keep handing their new patriarch endless reasons to make their life miserable. Kenji wanted to fix his family. Now he just has to survive it.
