Dark Souls Andre Of Astora

A mysterious VR game company has unleashed a revolutionary MMORPG: Ascension of Souls, a game so advanced it threatens to blur the line between reality and fiction. Marketed as a groundbreaking innovation, it promised to change the world. But for Leo, it is far more than just a game. It is the only thing standing between him and death. Thrown into an expansive, ever-shifting world, Leo fights alongside a growing circle of powerful allies. Each carries their own ambitions, rivalries, and hidden pasts. Together, they form bonds forged through battle, hardship, and the fragile moments of peace between. Like them, Leo can level up, grow stronger, and carve his path through a world where strength decides everything. But unlike anyone else, he possesses a pair of mysterious bracelets, a power tied to him alone, unlocking fragmented memories of a past he does not remember. As whispers of forgotten legends surface and unseen forces manipulate the game from behind the curtain, Leo begins to understand that survival is not just about getting stronger. It is about unraveling a truth buried deep within the game itself. Uncovering that truth comes at a cost, one that may change everything he thought he knew, even life itself.

Zayn was a quiet child—until betrayal shattered him. When he finally snapped, he used his genius to destroy the very family that broke him. Xane dreamed of being a hero—until a false accusation branded him a monster. He embraced the name, clawing his way up as a ruthless mafia boss. Both men should have died. Instead, they woke up in a world ruled by cursed energy, twisted gods, and a system that devours the weak. Now, two souls share one broken body. They aren't chosen. They aren’t even main characters. They're background extras—glitches in a story already written. But when the "fake extra" meets the real extra—the one with the Golden Cheat—everything begins to unravel. One wants to follow the story. The other? Will burn it to survive. Only one will remain.

A powerful and ruthless Korean mafia, comprised of five influential leaders, operates an illicit human trafficking ring under the guise of a legitimate conglomerate, Haechi Holdings. They systematically abduct and murder individuals who uncover their operations, harvesting their body parts for sale on the black market, while their crimes are meticulously covered up by corrupt top security authorities, plunging the nation into a state of fearful silence. Kim Min-ji, a diligent compliance analyst at Haechi Holdings, accidentally uncovers the horrifying truth of this operation – a vast network of disappearances, murders, and organ harvesting, with victims' remains stored in a highly secure hidden facility. Driven by a desperate need for justice, she gathers irrefutable evidence, but is discovered during her attempt to obtain physical proof from the mafia's hidden warehouse. Captured and brutally murdered on the spot by Director Choi, one of the mafia leaders, Min-ji's body parts are subsequently harvested and stored alongside the other victims. Miraculously, Min-ji's still-living heart is transplanted into the body of a young man, Lee Jin-woo (이진우), who suffered a severe accident on the same night. She awakens in Jin-woo's body, grappling with the traumatic memories of her death and the surreal reality of her new male identity. Her desperate attempts to expose the mafia and explain her soul-swapping ordeal are dismissed by medical professionals as a symptom of trauma and mental instability, leaving her isolated and disbelieved. Embracing this new existence, Min-ji, now in Jin-woo's form, resolves to dedicate her life to a singular, all-consuming purpose: exacting vengeance for herself and for every innocent victim of the mafia's atrocities. She vanishes for six months, undergoing an intense and rigorous transformation. During this period, she hones herself into a formidable force: a master combatant, a precise sniper, an expert driver, and a financially independent individual with an extensive network of contacts and a skilled hacker ally. Her meticulously planned return is marked by a devastating personal blow – the discovery of her mother's mysterious death during her absence. Overwhelmed by grief, she returns to her childhood home, where she unearths a hidden wooden box containing irrefutable evidence that her mother was also murdered, further fueling her burning desire for retribution. With her resolve solidified, Jin-woo (Min-ji) embarks on her grand mission of revenge. Her first targets are the six top security authorities who colluded with the mafia, systematically eliminating them one by one. Next, she turns her attention to the five personal secretaries of the mafia leaders, who aided in covering up the crimes, dispatching them through unique and untraceable methods, her own actions expertly concealed by her hacker. Finally, she confronts the five mafia leaders themselves, orchestrating their demise without leaving a trace of evidence. Despite intense investigations, authorities are unable to determine the perpetrator. Once her mission is complete, Jin-woo releases all the accumulated evidence to the public, exposing the full, horrific truth of the mafia's operations and the systemic corruption that enabled them. The nation is left in shock and disbelief. A mass memorial is held in honor of the victims, bringing a profound sense of closure and relief to Jin-woo. Having achieved "her and his" revenge, Min-ji continues to live in her new male identity, a silent avenger who brought justice to a corrupt world.

In a universe where humans don't exist by birth but by the weight of their stories, Elia is a young woman who possesses no glory, power, or destiny. She has only one promise: to live, her mother's last wish. To avoid fading into nothingness, she must ascend the Tower of Being, an infinite structure where each floor relives a forgotten story of humanity. It's not enough to survive: she must become part of the story without losing her identity. Because in Universe 9, to exist isn't to breathe. It's to be remembered by the Archive of Being. Will Elia find a story that gives her meaning, or will she be absorbed by tales greater, more tragic, and older than herself?

Synopsis In a world that moves too fast for hearts to speak, two souls—unknown to each other, yet somehow already familiar—cross paths in a moment that feels less like chance and more like the whisper of destiny. He is a quiet storm, a man of still waters and unfinished sentences, carrying the weight of memories that no longer belong to him. She is a flicker of light, a woman stitched together by poems and pauses, searching for something she cannot name. Neither is looking for the other, and yet, life folds time and space just enough to make them collide. Drawn together by the hush between heartbeats and the language of shared silence, their connection feels ancient—something that once was, and somehow, is again. In a world of missed trains and lost glances, their eyes find each other like constellations aligning across a night sky they've always belonged to. But was it fate that led them here… or the slow, sacred pull of souls remembering what the world has forgotten? This is not a story about falling in love. This is a story about being found—in the echoes of past lives, in the poetry of presence, in the deep, unspoken knowing that some strangers are not strangers at all. Blurb “What happens when healing comes from silence, and love arrives when you’ve already given up on being seen?” Leila Zaman never expected freedom to feel so heavy—until Milan gave her space to breathe, and a stranger began to notice the parts of her even she had forgotten. A poetic, emotional journey through family scars, quiet strength, and a slow-burn love worth staying for. #FamilyDrama #SlowBurnRomance #SouthAsianVoices

I thought going back to school would help me forget. But the nightmares came back worse than ever—and when I found that book, everything changed. The moment I opened it, I was dragged into a distorted version of my school—twisted halls, whispering shadows, and a creature that should’ve killed me. Jayden and Nkosi saved me, but the veil between worlds is breaking, and something out there is calling me by a name I don’t remember: Taleah. Then came Marcus—a monster in human skin—who forced me to choose between my life or my friends. I survived. Barely. But now the creature is back. Smarter. Stronger. Hunting not for revenge, but to evolve. Someone saved me again. Someone familiar. But I can feel it—this is only the beginning. Who I was doesn’t matter anymore. What’s coming…

Rowan sees beauty in death. The Order he has sworn to obey only sees defilement. As the reviled Caretaker of the Order, Rowan has accepted his role as a dutiful outcast because he believes it is the only way to prove his worth to the man who holds his sisters’ souls as collateral. With his magic and his voice, Rowan can absorb death and transform it, but only in ways the Order deems acceptable to maintain the stability of the reality it claims to protect Order must subdue Disorder. Reality must triumph over illusion. He is tainted and always will be. Rowan has never questioned those lessons, but that changes the night he harvests a crimson soul that is more than human and chooses to keep it a secret. When Rowan’s song transforms that soul into a beautiful and mysterious man he names Wren, he is forced to accept that sometimes duty is a lie and illusion is the only thing you can trust. As the fabric of the Order begins to unwind and a new kind of Disorder takes hold, Rowan will need to choose again, stand with the Order that held him down, or forge a new path with Wren at his side. He may be the only one who can restore balance to the worlds, but only if he can find balance within himself first. ************************************* Updates 3-4 times per week. Note: This story focuses on relationships. I promise an epic romance, lots of swoon-worthy moments, and a healthy amount of fluff. When it does get steamy…you might get burned. Fair warning for explicit content. I don’t shy away from my spice. There are lots of side characters and couples to fall in love with, in addition to the main couple. If you love the idea of found family, you will be happy. This book is set in a non-heteronormative world, so you will see various gender identities/expressions and types of love. ************************************* Excerpt (if you want the full steamy version, you will have to read the book!): Still reeling from the new magic that coursed under his skin and unsure of how to react to the desire that threatened to take control of him, Rowan froze. Wren's hot breath against his mouth sent a jolt of pleasure through his body, and he choked back a groan. A different kind of panic flared in Rowan's chest, burning him as if he were the one on fire. This was what he wanted, what he'd thought about every night since Wren left. But wanting more was one thing. Acting on it was another. He'd spent so much of his life hiding, he didn't know how to do anything else. One corner of Wren's mouth twitched as Rowan pulled away. When he attempted to free himself from Wren's grasp, Wren just hauled him closer. Rowan liked that he didn't have to think about what to do next. His bare chest thudded against Wren's torso, and the heat from Wren's body merged with Rowan's skin, melting him from the inside out. "What did you just do to me?" Wren's deep voice vibrated against Rowan's chest. "The Disorder of your illusion was holding you captive. I…I absorbed it." "Oh? Where did you learn to do that? Have I been gone that long?" Wren's grip loosened slightly on Rowan's wrists as if he was satisfied now that Rowan was practically sitting on top him. Rowan stared at Wren's lips. He opened his mouth to protest, but immediately closed it again. "I know you aren't going to say that I shouldn't touch you." Wren's free hand splayed over the small of Rowan's back. "Not when you started it." Rowan's breath hitched. "No. I'm not going to say that anymore. Not to you." "I thought you were afraid to be touched." Wren's fingers traced a circle over the curve of Rowan's spine as if testing for a reaction. "I know that I'm not afraid of you." Rowan waited for the panic to set in, but all he felt was desire. "With you, I want…" "You want what?" "I want more." Triumph flared in Wren's gaze before he narrowed his eyes. "Really? Then why are you still trying to get away from me?"

The world of Ensei is dying—rotting beneath the weight of ancient kingdoms, godlike rulers, and the corruption of Shinmei, the life-force that once united all things.

Fifty years ago, magic burst unexpectedly into a medieval world already in turmoil. Kingdoms scrambled to take full control of this new phenomenon, sparking brutal wars to prove their power and dominance. These kingdoms were built on the blood of those who dared to speak against the kings and their selfish ambitions.
