"I’m not here to fit in, I’m here to stand out. When the lights are brightest and the pressure’s crushing, that’s when I shine." On the cracked courts of Pinehill, Jaden "Silk" Hunter was a king. His ankle-breaking crossovers, no-look passes, and thunderous dunks made him a streetball legend. But when a scholarship pulls him into the unforgiving world of Ironwood Academy, the country’s most prestigious basketball powerhouse, Jaden learns that talent isn’t enough. At Ironwood, the court is a battlefield, every teammate is a rival, and Coach Grayson Hale rules with an iron fist. The flashy, unpredictable style that made Jaden a legend on the streets is seen as reckless and immature here. His teammates doubt him, his coach benches him, and the media begins to whisper: Is "Silk" all show and no substance? But Jaden isn’t here to play by anyone else’s rules. With his pride on the line and the weight of his hometown’s expectations on his shoulders, he’s determined to prove that style and substance can coexist that you can rewrite the game and still come out on top. When rival prodigies, team betrayals, and mounting pressure push him to the edge, Jaden must rise beyond raw talent and show everyone that greatness isn’t just about playing the game, it’s about playing the Game Above Game. Will Jaden rise to the top, or will the weight of greatness bring him crashing down?

After a tragic accident that claimed the lives of his parents and little sister, Leo, just 17 years old, found himself shouldering all responsibilities alone. By some miracle, he survived the past four months on his own—attending high school, juggling multiple part-time jobs, and enduring sympathetic gazes that pained him. The only respite he found was in books, which offered him an escape and some semblance of joy. One day, while engrossed in the book 'Path of Heroes: Battle Against the End,' his life took an unexpected turn. Halfway through the story, he inexplicably found himself transmigrated into the world of Path of Heroes, inhabiting the body of Azriel Crimson—a character never mentioned in the story's first half. An extra. Someone seemingly irrelevant to the plot. Unfortunately—or perhaps fortunately—fate had other plans, and Leo soon discovered that being a mere extra was not his destiny after all. -------------------------------------- Character illustrations will be available on Discord.

Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool—and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths—ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread—a path where strength isn’t just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he’s willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.

"Have you ever wondered why an ordinary person suddenly reincarnates in a world of magic, cultivation, or apocalypse? Why, out of nowhere, a system appears in their mind, promising power and glory? Why a legendary tower emerges, daring anyone to conquer it? Why, in a zombie apocalypse, monsters evolve... and so do you? Why some are sent back to the past, armed with memories of a future they desperately hope to change? And above all, why, in every one of these stories, there’s always someone: a reincarnated soul, a regressor, a hero with absurd powers, or a villain wielding impossible artifacts? These clichés, these so-called destinies, these miracles? They’re nothing but tests. Experiments. These heroes and villains are nothing more than my guinea pigs, variables in an equation I’m perfecting. Every world, every power, every tragedy... they are all my creations. I am Kael Atrius Vastreal. Let my name be etched into your existence for eternity."

Becoming a Devourer wasn't exactly on my bucket list, but hey, life has a way of throwing curveballs - or in my case, man-eating beasts. Sure, I could blame it on the irresistible taste of beast meat, but let's be honest, curiosity and a hefty dose of bad luck played their parts too. Little did I know that one impulsive snack would catapult me into a world where death lurks around every corner, hunger is a constant companion, and 'close call' becomes my middle name. From navigating the treacherous politics of the large cities to facing off against beasts that make your worst nightmares look like fluffy kittens, my life quickly became a non-stop rollercoaster of 'oh crap' moments. But this isn't just my story. It's also the tale of four others whose paths intertwine with mine in ways I never could have imagined. (Though between you and me, I'm clearly the star of this show.) Together, we're fumbling our way through a world where power comes at a price, alliances shift like sand, and the line between human and monster blurs with every bite. So buckle up, dear reader. You're in for a wild ride filled with dark humor, questionable decisions, and more adrenaline-pumping action than you can shake a spear at.

In the desolate mountains of the Azure Peaks, nestled amidst a cacophony of howling winds and cascading waterfalls, resided the humble village of Qingyun. Here, amidst the rustic charm of thatched roofs and earthen paths, lived a young boy named Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan, however, was no ordinary villager. He was a weakling, a frail sapling amidst a forest of towering oaks. While other children his age were already grappling with rudimentary martial arts, Lin Xuan struggled to even lift a wooden training dummy. His peers, naturally, viewed him with disdain, their laughter echoing through the crisp mountain air. One day, while tending to his ailing mother, a peculiar glow emanated from an ancient, moss-covered jade pendant that had been passed down through his family for generations. The pendant, awakened by a surge of unseen energy, latched onto Lin Xuan's weak meridian, a jolt of warmth coursing through his veins. Thus began Lin Xuan's extraordinary journey.
