Expanse Synonym

Eternally Bound by Blood(Dark Bl)

[WARNING:18+ SCENES AHEAD] “In a world I have forsaken, you are my salvation…” Deep within the shadows of a forgotten cave lies Alaric, the most feared and powerful immortal the world has ever known—imprisoned for thousands of years. His name, long buried in the whispers of the supernatural, was synonymous with terror, a creature so ruthless he was thought to be nothing but a myth. Until now. Eric, a newly turned vampire with a thirst for survival, stumbles into the cave seeking refuge from the sun, he unwittingly awakens the ancient beast. As Eric’s blood spills onto an ancient symbol, the cave's walls ignite with eerie light, and Alaric emerges from his long slumber. The supernatural world reels in shock as the once-mythical-legendary creature returns, ravenous and unstoppable, hungering for both human flesh and dominion over all supernatural beings. Yet amidst the chaos and destruction, an unexpected twist unfolds: Alaric realizes that Eric is the reincarnation of Killian—his long-lost best friend, a soul he yearned for, more than a century and thought he'd never see again. Though Alaric is merciless and cruel, he finds himself drawn to Eric, confused by a mixture of hatred, obsession, and the remnants of a once unbreakable bond. As the world watches in horror, Alaric’s twisted infatuation with the young powerful vampire threatens to upset the delicate balance of power in the supernatural realm. With his hunger for destruction clashing with an unspoken longing for Eric, Alaric must confront his dark desires while navigating the complex emotions of their reincarnated connection. In this gripping tale of supernatural might, forbidden love, and dark desires, alliances are tested, and boundaries are shattered. Will Alaric's awakening spell doom for the world, or will the resurfaced bond with Eric—his reincarnated best friend—change the course of destiny for both supernatural and human alike?

Duality of Shadows

In a world where everyone is a slave, someone is born who cannot be controlled. At the same time, an unstoppable villain rises on a quest for revenge. But the truth is darker than he ever imagined, and now he must face an unbeatable enemy — including himself. *** Bruno was a young man born on Earth, the son of an influential modern Emperor. Despite having everything money could buy and receiving the best and most rigorous training to succeed his father, he chose the opposite path, defying his family’s ruthless rule. The price of his innocence? A merciless death and the complete erasure of his existence by the deity controlling his fate. On Earth, the law of the powerful was absolute; a slave could never rebel. But then, he wakes up again. He’s reborn in a world of cultivation, where freedom was promised to those strong enough to claim it. Now, he could soar like a free bird and carve his own destiny... or so he thought. The harsh reality of this new world soon showed him how insignificant he still was. He realized he had only changed masters. The freedom he sought was an illusion. The heavenly laws treated everyone as servants, and their rules were unbreakable. Bruno learned this bitter truth after losing everything that made him happy due to an unjust rule. But who was he to question? Hopeless, Bruno died... and was reborn as Alm, an unstoppable villain. With a soul poisoned by pain and vengeance, he sowed chaos across the universe. Planets were destroyed, countless lives taken, and his name became synonymous with terror. A hero rose to oppose him, wielding a sacred sword of hope. People from all corners of the universe united against Alm, raising their voices and weapons to stop the villain who defied the heavens. But Alm was no longer just fighting for revenge. He was challenging the heavenly laws that sought to control him, fighting fate and all living beings. And against all odds... the sacred sword shattered. The alliance of the entire universe was defeated. The villain won! Now, Alm found himself alone in the empty void of a dead universe, facing his own inner demons. Who could be more ruthless to him than himself? “What have I done?” At that moment, the doors of truth opened to him. Everyone was a puppet of a supreme figure, an entity that manipulated minds and even the heavenly laws. “I will find you, no matter where you are!” Thus, the last emissary of the true Heaven’s Will awakened. Alm, who once only relied on his sheer will and rage, now had a system to guide him. But his opponent was an immortal existence, above even the heavens. The villain who destroyed an entire universe now faced a new beginning. He discovered that the universe he devastated was just a tiny grain of sand in an infinite cosmos, where countless other universes existed. And so begins the legendary tale of the villain’s rise... and the Sacred Round God? A strange Duality of Shadows existed within one person. But this time, he wouldn’t be alone. *** To clear up any potential confusion or frustration, here are some key points about the story. I’ll avoid major spoilers, but a few things will be revealed. You might find this concerning at first, but just check the book cover—it shows the main character and his only partner. She first appears at 10 years old, but rest assured, there’s no inappropriate content or early romance. At around 13, SHE starts developing feelings for the protagonist, but he doesn’t respond until she’s an adult. With her determined personality, she tries to seduce him at 17/18, but it doesn’t work. Their relationship only happens much later. The book has nods to other works, with my own spin on them, and focuses on avoiding elements I find problematic in other stories. Lastly, the beautiful book cover was commissioned and created by HDIArt.

Reincarnated Supreme Arcane Emperor's Machinations

“Eat shit!” Those were the last two words I shouted before creating the largest supernova and targeting the unknown enemies that called themselves The Order. Everyone was affected, me included. In the end, I, Emperor Vance, died using my own hands. I thought this was it. The Darkness that enveloped me is known as death. That changed when my gaze fell on the pulsating light that joined my presence in the expanse of darkness. It was Arcane; the accumulation of my learnings, the system of magic I built, and the sole owner of the mysterious power was with me in death. ‘Arcane’ enveloped itself to me, becoming the sole radiating light in the dark world. “How long has it been?” However, that single memory I had remaining in this ‘world’ seems to be becoming the only recollection I have left. I’ve become lost in time, drowning myself in the darkness. The only thought that crossed my mind was enduring yet another day in the same situation. Whoosh—! Not until it looked like I was being sucked outside of this nothingness. ‘What the fuck!’ For some strange reason, I felt tears fall down my cheeks, and I had no control over them. “Uwah!” In the first place, why am I crying? ‘And how is it possible to feel someone carrying my back?’ Amidst a series of strange occurrences, four simple words instantly made me realize exactly what was happening. “Congratulations! It’s a boy!” I’ve been reincarnated back into my own world.

I managed to escape through one of the most convenient and contrived get-aways in all of undead history, even managing to pull a bony one on the Lich bastard by stealing two of his seemingly important possessions which I find out later to be better than I thought they’d be! From there it’s a just a SPIRAL of boneshit left and right! I can’t catch a break! What’s with this atrocious luck, bro?! A voice speaks to me about how I have qualified for something about a something that’s supposedly something’s something! Then I find myself in a new world that reeks of life and gives my bones a disgusted rattle. Powerful beasts and men are at every turn, all lining up to be a huge pain in my PELVIS! GAAAAH! Jeez this is happening too fast! However, even while I’m in the thick of this, the one saving grace is that I got something worth while! A new path of power! I can NOT be an undead!

[Author’s Answers To Popular Readers’ Questions] Q: (IHateArjuun77) -Hey author, is your book trash?- A: (Author) -Haha, screw you dear reader. The answer is NO. The story has elements of comedy, action, magic, adventure and Brutality. Like it gets really dark sometimes. There’s a comprehensive story with characters that I tried my damndest to NOT make generic on top of a cool power system that’s for the most part easy to understand. So its not trash. Q: (IFreakingHateArjuun56) -Hey author why is your first volume so slow paced and... trash?- A: (Author) -Haha. It’s how I designed the First Volume to be. It’s a fun setup that doesn’t focus on many things other than the MC’s mentality, powers and route of progression. The next volumes are normal paced, focusing on the world, the villains and general expansion but all while still retaining the book theme and fun experience- Q: (ShadeIsAPervert001) -Hey author, I instinctively sense that I’ll hate this book, when should I drop? A: (Author) -Is this the same reader?! Anyway, I’ll give a range. Read a minimum of the first 20 chapters to a max of up to chapter 44 before you decide on anything too rash. I’ll hunt down this reader! --- Discord: [ https://discord.gg/8hcraTjzE9 ]

Maximum Status.

Leered was part of the first generation of "Heroes", since it was his generation that learned to improve the new abilities and characteristics that had arrived to his world during the time known as "the new beginning". Portals and enormous power crystals had arrived on planet earth, which emanated certain energy with overwhelming force. These "convergences" affected the terrain and in turn gave way to the spontaneous transfer/creation of various creatures, places and abilities, to which magical explanations were given. While at first this chaos resulted in a world at war, little by little the abilities that had awakened in humans, the new intelligent races that arrived on the planet and the constant expansion of the terrain thanks to the portals, gave way to understanding between species. This led to the formation of the first generation of Heroes, elite units of each race, which were trained for combat against the beasts of the convergence and, in the beginning, the arrival of an era of peace, this organization and their summoned were known at the time as heroes. What differentiates a companion from a mere weapon, power, when you become so strong that those you considered brothers begin to see you as a threat to the point of betrayal something has to be done. What would you choose if given a new opportunity? Leered is faced with this question, a lifetime dedicated to conflict and duty, a lifetime lived in order to become stronger, when presented with the opportunity to move on and leave this behind, will he choose to start over or will he seek answers?

THE WEAVER OF WORLDS

The universe is not silent. Beneath the infinite expanse of stars and nebulas, there lies a rhythm, a symphony of creation that hums through the fabric of existence. From my vantage point in the observatory—a citadel of obsidian suspended high above the celestial tapestry of the Felox Universe—I feel it, vibrating beneath my feet. Before me, a holographic panorama unfolds, revealing countless galaxies, each a cradle of life or a monument to ruin. It is breathtaking, immense, and fragile. I am Arinath Alfahiem, the new Origin Being, and the weight of an entire universe rests upon my shoulders. For the past century, chaos has reigned. The Felox Universe, once a harmonious mosaic of worlds, has unraveled into a tumultuous sea of ambition and power. My own ascension—shaped by the transfer of the Origin Being's legacy—left a void that the cosmos was unprepared to fill. Without balance, worlds descended into turmoil. Beings of entropy, the Devourers from the Abyss, found cracks in the universe's defenses, while mortal rulers, drunk on newfound supernatural powers, unleashed devastation in their quests for dominance. The twelve Universal Administrators—stalwart beings of immense wisdom and strength—have fought valiantly to stem the tide. But even their combined efforts falter before the magnitude of the growing disorder. The task of restoring equilibrium cannot be achieved through strength alone. It requires something greater: guidance, understanding, and restraint. My role as Origin Being is not to rule with an iron fist or to mold the universe in my image. It is to nurture, to guide, to maintain the fragile balance that sustains existence. Yet this is no simple task. Direct intervention, though tempting, risks tipping the scales further into chaos. Instead, I walk among mortals, veiling my power, learning their struggles, their dreams, and their fears. It is among them that I find the seeds of hope—the champions and apostles who will carry the universe's burden alongside me. My purpose is clear: to preserve the Felox Universe, to shield it from unraveling, and to ensure its equilibrium. But I must tread carefully, for too much interference would shatter the very balance I seek to maintain. In a cosmos teetering on the edge of ruin, my greatest challenge lies not in wielding my immense power but in knowing when to stay my hand. This is the story of balance. The story of a universe in chaos and a being who seeks to heal it—not by force, but by wisdom, choice, and the careful orchestration of destiny. This is my first novel, Happy Reading.

The Ultimate Dominion: Founding an Indomitable Empire

[Warning: Mature Content] Rayden Zephyrios, a remarkably handsome and robust young man, is unexpectedly summoned to an alternate realm. In this new world, he is designated to serve as a Combat Magician, tasked with enhancing the military prowess of a certain kingdom. However, after an evaluation of his magical capabilities, it is revealed that he possesses only two innate abilities: telekinesis and plant growth—both of which are considered rather mundane and commonplace among the populace. Deeming Rayden's potential impact negligible, the king decides to grant him his freedom, bestowing upon him several bags of gold and independent ownership of expansive lands located within the treacherous wilderness of the borderlands. Far from feeling disheartened or disadvantaged, Rayden views this new chapter of his life as increasingly alluring, unburdened by the constraints he once faced on Earth. In a surprising twist, upon re-evaluating his inherent abilities, Rayden discovers that the initial assessment was marred by a technical error. In reality, he possesses Ultimate Gravity Magic, enabling him to manipulate gravitational forces to the most extreme degrees, and Ultimate Verdant Magic, granting him mastery and absolute control over all forms of plant life. With these formidable powers at his disposal, Rayden sets forth on an ambitious mission to establish a realm where he can live freely, unencumbered by any form of scarcity or need. (Content Advisory: This narrative contains mature themes, including intense violence and yuri elements. It is crafted specifically for readers who are comfortable with and can appreciate such complex themes. If you are under the legal age or find these elements unsettling, it is advised to discontinue reading.) (Cover Image: Ai-Generated)

The Knight of Roses

"In a world divided into five continental countries, with the middle continent serving as a volatile buffer zone, tyranny reigns supreme in the southern continents, each governed by a ruthless monarch. The most dominant force in this oppressive empire is the Church of the Sun, where the Pope holds the highest authority, serving as both religious leader and king. The Church's power is further bolstered by the 12 Paladins and 24 Reverend Fathers, backed by an army of clergy soldiers. The catalyst for this tale is the infamous 'Day of Unity,' an event that transpired roughly 50-55 years ago. On this day, nations from across the continents gathered for diplomatic relations, only to face a treacherous assault by the Pope and his ruthless army. In a shocking turn of events, the Pope's forces attacked all attending nations, seizing their lands, and compelling the surviving members of royal families and their people to pledge loyalty to the oppressive empire. Yet, the kingdom of Valkenburg, renowned for its advanced military and impenetrable defenses, remained untouched, as their wise king sent only an emissary to the event. In this world, the mystical power of 'wave energy' flows through the veins of every individual, with each person born possessing a unique affinity. With rigorous training, they can harness multiple affinities. But there's more to this universe than meets the eye. Rift Gates scattered throughout Earth lead to other realms. These gates are largely controlled by the imperial army, except for those hidden in free territories or the untamed eastern regions. The alternate realms include 'The Realm of Disorder,' 'The Shadowlands,' 'The Land of the Fel' (comprising seven colossal circles, each the size of a solar system), 'Wonderland' (a heavenly realm with light-type beings and five expansive circles, symbolized as 'the five circles of the rainbow'), and 'Verdana.' At the pinnacle of this intricate universe stands the Titanomachy, god-like beings who rule over these realms and influence magic on the mortal plane. They are the architects of this fantastical world, each possessing unrivaled power and purpose. Amidst this intricate tapestry of realms, magic, and political intrigue, 'The Knight of Roses' embarks on a journey filled with danger, discovery, and destiny. The Main Character, Arryn of Asa, a battle-worn mercenary with a shadowy past, will navigate the tumultuous landscapes, confront the horrors lurking in the cursed forests, and delve into the mysteries of the dark lord and his connection to the shadowy figure. As the story unfolds, the MC will find themselves at the center of a brewing conflict, where loyalties will be tested, alliances forged, and the fate of nations hanging in the balance." written by yodyo10/pendragondyo
