The Edge Book

“In a world where gods go silent and monsters whisper in the dark… one forgotten name begins to echo again.” After falling through the cracks of reality itself, a man wakes up in chains — nameless, powerless, and lost. They call him Antares. But even he doesn’t know if that name is truly his. With no memories and no allies, he is thrust into a world of arcane empires, warring noble houses, and hidden forces that shape destiny from behind closed doors. Here, strength is law, and weakness is an invitation to vanish. From the secrets of ancient churches to the twisted ambitions of inhuman rulers, a storm is gathering — and Antares may be the eye at its center… or the spark that sets the world ablaze. Erethna: Edges of Existence is a grand dark fantasy saga — rich with metaphysical mystery, brutal politics, and a deeply structured universe where every action has a cost, and every name carries weight. This is not a tale of heroes. This is a world where the line between savior and monster is paper-thin.

He wasn’t a hero. He wasn’t even a villain. Just... a nobody. A poor doctor was reincarnated into the brutal world of a dark fantasy novel. He was granted two things: Knowledge — and a legendary artifact. But that novel? A cheap imitation. Worse, a cursed destiny had taken root within him, nourished by the very artifact he wished he had shattered the moment it all began. In a world where even side characters kill to survive, he must claw his way through betrayal, blood, and broken fates. If he can't rewrite his destiny, he won’t live long enough to regret it.

After the sacrifice of a great hero, humanity was saved from the invasion of a violent specie of extra-terrestrials. The human race was left in chaos as only 10% survived the catastrophe but gained something worth much more than tens of billions of lives. A Revolution. They discovered universal concepts, a term that forged earth into one of most formidable race ever known through out the ages. Like earth, Max lost everything that day but also gained something greater – a dream to chase after. He was gonna be just like him and rid the world of evil. Now in a world where magic co-exist with other universal concepts, Max plays a desperate gamble on the battle field and was handsomely rewarded with the use of 3 concepts. Now, he walks the path of power and rides the wave of time into a better future. Note: There's gonna be a lot of twists and turns with digits. I am talking things like MC1, MC2, MC3 and some other stuff like alternate realities, bi-reality coexistence, and time journeys. Time, am I right? If anything confuses you, you can dm me on discord.

“I will build the greatest magic guild in the world, become the Khalifah Magic, and find INANIS!” A boy named Kael Luminous shouted to the endless sea. In a world with no continents — only millions of islands scattered across three great oceans. The Western Yellow Ocean. The Southern Red Ocean. The Central Green Ocean. Amidst these scattered seas, a rebellious magic guild was born. The Gild Dwan Magic Guild, the only guild brave enough to stand against the World Government formed by the three kingdoms that ruled each ocean. Gild Dwan declared war, defying the caste system that trampled the common folk. The nobles, blessed with stronger magic and bodies favored by mana, forged a cruel order in which they alone decided who would live and who would die — while the powerless, those with no magic and no favor from mana, could only obey. Gild Dwan became the first spark of rebellion. Led by Rajendra, the guild cornered the World Government with a devastating magic he called INANIS. The war between Gild Dwan and the World Government dragged on for years. In the end, Rajendra fell ill and died — but before drawing his last breath, he left behind a final vow: "I have hidden the magic I named INANIS in a place at the edge of the world. Seek it out, and conquer the world with it." Word of his dying words spread like wildfire, and thus began the Era of Magic Guilds. Adventurers rose up everywhere, founding guilds and setting sail for the ends of the earth to claim INANIS for themselves. They sailed with countless dreams in their hearts: INANIS is power. INANIS is wealth. INANIS is peace. And INANIS is a threat. Of course, the World Government, ruled by the magic nobility, would not stand by and do nothing. To them, INANIS was an abomination that could topple their reign. This is the story of a boy who dreams of building the greatest magic guild the world has ever known — who sails the boundless oceans in search of INANIS, and who dares to challenge the tyranny of merciless rulers.

Her estranged grandfather’s final package—a worn leather-bound volume titled The Book of Whispers—came with one instruction: "Burn it. Do not open it." She ignored him.

The book isn’t dead paper. It’s aware. And it’s chosen her to be its new Keeper. Now pursued by the skeletal figure called the Last Witness, Lena races to uncover the book’s dark lineage—tracing back to a 12th-century monk who sealed away a shadow deity within its pages.

Jin Mu-ryong, the disgraced heir of the Frozen Blade Sect, kneels before the Imperial Court—his hands bound in soul-severing chains, his once-proud robes reduced to bloodied rags. The Emperor, flanked by the very martial brothers Mu-ryong once called family, grins as he pronounces the sentence: "Execution for the traitor." Desperation turns to rage as Mu-ryong smashes his forehead against the floor—not in surrender, but in final defiance. The impact cracks the marble, and in that instant, a blinding summoning circle ignites beneath him, its intricate runes unlike any Murim formation. The Emperor's smirk vanishes as Mu-ryong dissolves into golden light, leaving behind only a whisper of qi and the echoing laughter of… someone else. He awakens naked and wounded in a grand cathedral, surrounded by foreign mages in flowing robes. Their language is gibberish, but their expressions are clear: awe and terror. For Mu-ryong has not been exiled—he has been summoned. The Kingdom of Luminar is losing its war against the Demon God’s hordes. Their last hope? A "Hero from Beyond the Heavens and a puppet they can control." But what they got was no hero, nor a beast to be tamed—they summoned a vengeful Murim monster.

He created an empire—not to rule the world, but to understand it. Silas Reed unified Earth, conquered nations, and led humanity into the stars. Not as a hero. Not as a tyrant. But as a man obsessed with truth. He needed minds. Tools. Data. So he raised a civilization around him like scaffolding. But when that civilization stopped growing—when it became content—he let it collapse behind him without regret. His final experiment was a time machine. It failed. Instead of the past, it flung him into another universe—one ruled by martial gods, bloodline dynasties, mana, and power structures beyond human logic. Here, Silas is no longer at the top of the food chain. But that only makes the puzzle more beautiful. He doesn't want revenge. Or redemption. Or power. He wants understanding. What he doesn't know—yet—is that he was expected. That his arrival was not a fluke, but a move. One placed on a board he cannot yet see, by players he cannot yet comprehend. This is not the story of a chosen one. It is the chronicle of a man with a single obsession—and what happens when a cold, curious god of reason walks into a world that runs on myth. ------ -> Tags: #Transmigration #RationalMC #NoSystem #DarkFantasy #CosmicIntrigue #ObsessionDrivenMC -> Discord: https://discord.gg/W7DZDWYjKH

In a cosmos woven through the Aetherium Prime—the foundational plane where thought, will, and energy coalesce—existence is governed by ancient laws and the silent will of The One Above All. Yet, this delicate balance is threatened by a profound schism, born from a primordial act of defiance and a relentless pursuit of transcendence. At the heart of this unfolding saga are Lognos (L2) and Eli Ragual (R2), twin brothers of unprecedented potential. Born from the forbidden union of Miriam Soter, a celestial-blooded Saintess, and Dr. Azrael, a heretical scientist-mystic, their very existence is an act of rebellion against cosmic predestination. L2, the Cosmic Warrior and Ophiuchus Ascendant, embodies intellect and strategy, destined to master the systems of reality. R2, the Spiral Messiah, is a powerhouse of raw strength and transcendence, whose path involves "becoming the storm." Their bond is profound, yet fraught with L2's desperate drive to overcome R2's inherent physical fragility, a struggle that will ultimately lead to their destined fusion into LRD, a universal stabilizer. Their journey unfolds against a backdrop of cosmic warfare, driven by two opposing, yet equally dangerous, legacies: * Cain's Lineage: The progenitor of the Vampire Lords, Cain defied the Creator, his ambition to transcend his curse leading to the birth of his three distinct bloodlines: the Infernal (seeking demonic godhood), the Human (aiming for perfected immortality), and the Beastkin (forging ultimate war forms). Cain envisions the fusion of these lineages into a single, perfect being, asserting dominion over the mortal realms and beyond. * Babel's Legacy: Once the divine Abel, corrupted by Cain's dark arts, Necros Babel became the first Undying Necromancer. His ultimate goal is not vengeance, but a calculated act of cosmic restoration: to erase Kain. Babel believes Kain's continued existence has become a "detriment" to the natural order, and he seeks to unmake the very rules of existence through Eldritch Vampirism—a power that devours concepts and reality itself—to achieve this precise, minimal-damage erasure. As L2 and R2 cultivate their Inner Worlds, forging personal realities that threaten to surpass the Aetheric Plane itself, they ignite a "war between those who govern existence and those who dare to create it." Established deities, categorized by their elemental and conceptual affinities (from Ra and Zeus to Kali and Kael), grapple with the emergence of these new forms of divinity. The Nine Singularities—fundamental truths about Being, Choice, Death, and Godhood—serve as philosophical and existential trials that all ascending entities must confront. The fate of the cosmos hangs in the balance. Will L2 and R2 succumb to the temptations of Cain's raw power or Babel's nihilistic erasure? Or will they forge a new path, navigating the treacherous Wells of Resonance and confronting the ancient Apex Beasts, to achieve a Divine Unity that rebuilds existence rather than destroying it? Their choice will not only redefine their own destiny but reshape the very fabric of reality, determining whether the universe descends into eternal conflict or ascends to a new, transcendent order.
