{WSA 2025 Entry} Read the Pinned Review First. ***** Lionheart... The bloodline of the once most powerful clan of knights, a lineage so formidable that even gods fought for their loyalty. But over time, the bloodline diluted, its strength waning with each generation. The Lionhearts, once revered as paragons of might, faded into obscurity, becoming nothing more than a relic of the past. Eventually, they fell so low that they joined the ranks of beggars, a shadow of their former glory. Amidst this desperate struggle to survive, only one child of the Lionhearts remained alive... Davey Lionheart, a frail nine-year-old boy forced to beg on the streets but carrying a heart of kindness and purity. One miraculous day, after 7,000 long years, the pure bloodline of the Lionhearts awakened within Davey. The power of his ancestors, thought to have been lost forever, burned brightly once more. This awakening caught the attention of Aria, the Goddess of Light, who had once protected the Lionhearts. Aria tasked Davey with a divine mission... to slay the demon lord destined to plunge the world into chaos. With the blessings of the strongest goddess and the might of his awakened bloodline, Davey rose to the top of the world. By the age of 19, he had become the youngest and most powerful knight in history. His kindness was boundless... he devoted himself to helping others, spreading the name of Aria, and claiming nothing for himself. But this kindness became the seed of his downfall. In the climactic battle against the demon lord, Davey triumphed but at the cost of his right arm... It was a sacrifice he made to save his comrades. To a knight, the loss of their sword arm was equal to losing everything. Davey, the world’s greatest hero, was now powerless. And the world only worshipped the strong. Those he once saved... the comrades he protected, the woman he loved, and the commoners he gave everything for... turned on him. Even the goddess he had worshipped and sacrificed for scorned him. Betrayed and abandoned, Davey wandered the world for four long years as the fallen knight, enduring ridicule and humiliation. His end came in the most gruesome way. Betrayed by those he had once saved, his limbs were severed, and he was left to be devoured alive by wild beasts. Even in his final moments, Davey prayed to Aria, hoping the goddess would extend a hand of mercy. But his prayers fell on deaf ears. In his last breath, betrayed by the people he cherished and the goddess he worshipped, Davey’s soul burned with rage. The knight who once lived to save... now desired only to kill. But karma is impartial. It represents the Balance of everything after all. Fate intervened, granting Davey a second chance. In the void between life and death, he was given a choice... - Join the Divines. - Embrace the Demons. Loathing the gods and the people who betrayed him, Davey chose the demons, vowing to destroy everything he once served. But to his surprise, he woke up in a completely different world where qi cultivation and longevity reigned supreme. A strange, eerie energy lingered in the air. Hovering before him was a peculiar, glowing window with letters slowly forming... [Connecting to the host...] But he who had been betrayed once by everything he held dear did not trust anyone... not even in the face of death. Davey refused the system’s help, instead, chose to pursue invincibility with his own strength. Seeing this, a certain entity smiled, and another window appeared... [The System will not appear unless the host calls for it with all his heart.] ***** Have some trust and read the book :3 Btw,, Every 100 powerstones - 2 bonus chapters.

Silas grinned mischievously. “That’s a tough one.” Julius noticed the sly smile on Silas’s face and realized he’d been teased. “Just kidding~” Silas said, chuckling. “Well, Agares is a bit of a mystery. He’s strict but has a laid-back side too. He’s cold most of the time but can be surprisingly kind in rare moments?” Julius couldn’t help but laugh at the contradictory description. “Why do you make it sound like you’re unsure?” “Because he really is a puzzle. He’s not a bad guy, though. He keeps to himself and mainly communicates through the vice leader, Epaphras. He’s insanely popular, not just here but at Saint Ambracia Academy too. There have been incidents where girls from the academy tried to sneak into East Laurence just to see him. It’s crazy.” “Anyway,” Silas said, “you probably won’t interact with him much unless absolutely necessary, so don’t stress too much about it.” That should’ve been the case, and yet, he found himself interacting with the dark haired boy more and more, his admiration slowly started to change into something more. “Do I like him?” He couldn’t help but ask himself. …………………..

The era of human dominance on Earth had come to an end. Dragonborns, powerful beings with divine abilities, now ruled the world. Humans were relegated to slavery, forced to construct grand castles and labor on farmlands for their dragon overlords. The dragons had conquered every kingdom on earth except for one that thrived despite their oppressive reign - Eldoria. This prosperous kingdom had a dark secret behind its success and resilience against the dragonborns’ threats. Every decade, the dragonborns of Scalethorne demanded a tribute of slaves from Eldoria, and the time for the next offering was drawing near. In accordance with the kingdom's customs, King Rodric prepared slaves and a rare mineral resource to appease the dragon king. However, Rodric was horrified when the demand turned to something far more precious. His daughter, Aria.

“Yes, suck.” He grinned, his voice as smooth as sin. “Because that is among the fastest ways to drive a man nuts. And the noise that comes after that, the screaming that escapes her–they are a song, a hymn to desire. The body proximity, mmmmh, the twin peaks dangling from the supple art, the writhing, the hard thrusts that will have them begging for more, the rounds they would devour over and over again, his big balls that ejaculates at the peak of a climax and the baby that comes after... in most cases. I think that is why they are scared.” He finished off, whispering the last part. Aria’s life was simple; a medical student, a devoted christian and a future she could control—until the night it all fell apart. Tricked, she found herself saving a wounded man who shouldn’t exist. His presence stirred something primal within her, a pull she didn’t understand and a fear she couldn’t ignore. Bound to him by an invisible thread, she couldn’t escape the intensity of his gaze—or the heat of his touch. But nothing could prepare her for the danger that awaited. Forced to accompany him on a treacherous journey, Aria found herself thrust into the deadly politics of a kingdom ruled by a formidable king and his twin sons—one charming yet distant, the other cruelly intoxicating. Amid whispered secrets and simmering tensions, Aria becomes a pawn in a game far darker than she imagined. “You don’t get to decide my future,” she spat, her defiance flickering like a candle against his towering presence. The King’s lips curved into a slow, dangerous smile. “Your future was decided the moment you walked into my court, Aria. You are mine.” Her pulse quickened as he stepped closer, the rich timbre of his voice rolling over her like a storm. “You will bear my mark, stand by my side, and serve as my queen. Do not mistake this for a choice—it’s an inevitability.” “I would rather die,” she shot back, her voice trembling as his hand tilted her chin to meet his piercing gaze. “Then you’ll die with my name on your lips,” he said, his thumb brushing against her jaw. “You belong to me, and not even death will change that.” The man she travels with hides a past that could shatter her resolve, the twins threaten to unravel her very being, and the king sees her as more than just an advisor—he sees her as a temptation he cannot have. As desire tangles with deception, Aria is drawn deeper into a world of forbidden touches and unspoken truths. In a tale of passion, betrayal, and dark secrets, Aria must fight for her life, her heart, and the truth—before everything she knows burns to ashes.
