Lirik Illusion

~She was a maid, a peasant of the lowest standing, yet, at first sight, she melted the icy walls the Lord had built around his heart.~ ~~~~~~~ Michael Blackthorn, the lord of Velmont, had a reputation for being sardonic, unempathetic, mysterious, cold-hearted, and, of course, constantly snapping the bones of retards who irked him. But above all his villainous trait, his intense distaste towards ‘love’ was what stood out. To him, love was a foolish illusion of the heart and marriage, a prison of commitment. But all it took was a glance at her to have his resolution crashing to nothingness…. She was a bundle of naivety, docile, innocent, and gentle, a stark contrast to those females desperately offering themselves to him like sacrificial lambs to climb up the hierarchy. Like a fleeting shadow, not only did she find her way into his mansion, but also into his heart. Evie, after several tries of finding a job, to become independent, evading the tantrums of her scorned relatives, fortunately received a job offer from the lord's mansion. Residing in a land where peasants were treated as dirt, crushed beneath the feet of the elites, she had learned to avoid being in the limelight. But as cautious as she was, she would never have imagined having the eyes of the most feared man in velmont fall on her the moment she stepped into his manor. ~~~~~~ Credits goes to Monita on Pinterest for letting me use her beautiful artwork.

Neva and Rhett, the two youths have their heart strings attached in love. Interfering their peaceful life circumstances unfolds scattering blades in their romance. Ishmael, with a heart of spikes, he looks to mend the wound, searching and failing for his Neva separated from him. Rays of love and joy filtering through clouds of horror in the world, Neva before him once more. The twisted fate entangling them, reveals the game of sphere as misery burns their soul. Concealed life beyond turning pages—one after another. The tale gathers: sin and virtue, tragedy and fortune, strength and weakness, destruction and creation, love and hate. Illusion is where we live; in the Garden of Eden before the fall of man. Illusive is serenity; an evermore sanguine of love. Visionary of Eden in the new earth; sows hope deep in the soul. Delusory pleasure of the world; shall bring us burns in the ocean of fire. Illusive Eden is peace. Illusive Eden is tragedy. The fall of the man, even now bleeding red. The whisper whirls with the dawn of a man. He, who pretends to be the Hero. (The girl who promised to always be together, Forbids him to ever appear, Refusing to recognise him, She disregards all he ever had. Vowing to protect her, He's the terrifying truth she hopes rules lie. Tripping and ripping her, He's the living tragedy looming in on her life. He once was her Elayne, now her hiraeth; He's the villain pretending to be a Hero.)

His expression was noxious, that bought me to my knees. It was turbulent, so was difficult to see anything through them. But I saw. I saw. Him. Maybe it was too late but I saw.

In the sprawling skyline of the world’s most powerful cities, one name commanded respect and fear in equal measure: Trinity Solaris. The founder and CEO of the Shield Group, Trinity wasn’t born into privilege. Her rise to the top was forged through sheer brilliance, relentless ambition, and a vision so grand that even her harshest critics couldn’t deny her genius. At just six years old, Trinity had laid the foundation of her empire. By twenty, she had built the Shield Group into a global conglomerate that dominated industries from renewable energy to cutting-edge technology. The world saw her as a symbol of perfection: a woman of unparalleled beauty, intellect, and power. But beneath the composed exterior was a sharp mind that never rested. Trinity was more than a businesswoman—she was a force of nature, unyielding and unapologetic in her pursuit of greatness. Her ambition wasn’t limited to wealth or corporate dominance. No, Trinity had a far grander vision. She wanted it all: power, influence, and the loyalty of those who mattered. But not just anyone. Trinity sought allies and companions who matched her strength, intelligence, and determination—women who would stand by her side as she reshaped the world. And then, there was Adrian Fury. A man whose ego far outweighed his accomplishments, Adrian fancied himself a domineering figure in the corporate world. He thrived on outdated tactics, shallow connections, and the illusion of power. For years, he had been a thorn in Trinity’s side, attempting to undermine her empire while collecting a harem of influential women through charm and manipulation. Trinity had tolerated his antics—until now. She didn’t just want to defeat Adrian Fury. She wanted to dismantle him, strip away every illusion of power he clung to, and claim everything he valued. When Trinity stepped onto the stage of the grand hall at Solaria Plaza, she didn’t know that her journey was about to take a dramatic turn. She was already a master of her domain, but the activation of a mysterious system—a tool that would elevate her to unimaginable heights—would transform her ambitions into destiny. The Domineering Female CEO System had one simple goal: to turn Trinity Solaris into a legend. A woman whose name would echo through the ages, whose power would eclipse all others, and whose harem would outshine even the most ambitious fantasies of Adrian Fury. This is the story of Trinity Solaris, the woman who would rewrite the rules, humiliate the so-called male protagonist, and rise as the true queen of the corporate world.

When Revan—a disillusioned college student with a penchant for conspiracy theories—dies in a freak accident, he awakens in a mysterious world teetering on the edge of ruin. But this isn't reincarnation; it's transmigration, and he's not in his own body. Instead, he finds himself inhabiting a boy's corpse in an ancient village steeped in secrets and shadowed by towering spires of darkness. Here, individuals possess "Seals of Resonance"—mystical marks that grant unique powers tied to elemental and spiritual forces. Revan quickly learns that the boy he now is was a traitor executed for dabbling in forbidden rituals, connecting him to an ominous entity in the "Primordial Abyss." Unraveling the world's history and magic, Revan discovers that its structure is divided into Ten Orders of Ascent, with reality governed by unseen, godlike beings known as "Elders Beyond the Veil."

But the deeper he delves, the more he uncovers horrifying truths about the Abyss and his own role as a pawn in a cosmic game.

As one of GHOST FLEET's most formidable agents, ERIKA had spent her life honing her skills for a single purpose: vengeance. The monsters who tore her world apart, stripping her of family, pride, and dignity, had no idea she was coming for them. Armed with unyielding resolve, she believed she was ready to unleash hell.

As he delves deeper into the mysteries of the Clock, his investigation leads him to a hidden cult bent on unlocking the "Crypt of Aeons," a mythical place beyond human comprehension.
