Third Night Only

William was but an ordinary man—until fate saw fit to thrust him fifteen years into the past. Yet, this was no mere journey through time; he awoke not in his own flesh, but in that of the third son of Duke Herne, the most formidable noble in the realm. Now, amidst the glittering halls of power, where smiles conceal daggers and honour is but a well-spoken lie, William must navigate a world where commoners are naught but dust beneath the boots of the aristocracy. In this treacherous game of deception and ambition, he must learn quickly—for in the world of the nobility, ignorance is a death sentence ---------------------------- Hear ye, my loyal readers… From this day onward, updates shall be limited to three chapters per day—no more!

An Imperial Scholar by day. An assassin by night. The World of Cultivation has changed. Elemental Mancers. Flux Mancers. Spirit Mancers. Soul Mancers. Raining down fire and splitting oceans. Destroying mountains with a single stomp and calming skies with a glance. Controlling the tides of Karma, while wielding the souls of others like a puppeteer tugging on the Lines of Fate. The most mysterious of them all were Spirit Mancers, a truth that Theron was more than intimately familiar with. Due to one's Tribulation, his life was turned upside down. His family, his rage, his somber sadness becoming nothing more than Bad Karma's fuel for a madman. He was once a gentle young man, a non-combative Water Mancer who wanted nothing more than to read his novels to the sound of the rain and one day become an Imperial Scholar. But now... Everything had changed. He donned a cloak in the silent night as the clouds above gathered. Pulling its hood over his chilling blue eyes, he stalked off into the darkness. The first droplets fell. He would become the nightmare of his enemies, the blade hidden in the shadows of Heaven's tears. The River of the Night.

It was fifty years ago, when Exo-9, a wandering rogue planet with no star suddenly drifted into the solar system and the scientists assured the earthlings that it was merely a visitor with no harmful intent, However, eleven years ago, It collided with Earth’s moon, causing the lunar orb to split into half and come crashing down onto earth, Lives were lost and centuries of scientific advancements were destroyed, but one could always count on humans to do what they did best, They survived, adapted as some mutated, Now, It’s a world where superpowers are new and humanity is on the brink of extinction, One last city remains, a self-sustaining dystopian dome ruled by corporate overlords and government enforcers.

And after having a taste of both worlds, his only choice is to disappear, So what happens when he resurfaces as a ghost in the system, first, as a vigilante, then an assassin without allegiance who is immediately dubbed the Herokiller and the Villain’s Nightmare as he eliminates targets on both sides; Heroes, villains, and anyone who stands in his way and the world watches in fear as he carves a third path as neither a savior nor destroyer.

In the end, only one question remains: Who deserves to live? And in this game of survival, only the strongest shall survive, but who is willing to give up their life? Who is the true SUPERHERO?

When talking about World War 3, most people usually imagine a nuclear apocalypse or nuclear war. A war that will completely exterminate human civilization, leaving only radiation and the ruins of destroyed cities on Earth. What if, however, in a parallel universe in which the Soviet Union survives after 1991, nuclear weapons don't exist, and World War 3 is a war with the most advanced weapons from both NATO and the Soviet Union? A place where M1A1 Abrams and T-14 Armata collide and tremble the ground, where F-35 and Su-57 terrorize the skies. How would a war like this look like? And what if, even military weapons that were thought to come out of science fiction, such as laser guns, jetpacks, and lightsabers are used in The Third Human Global Conflict? Although everything would appear to be incredibly epic, it all began with a simple terrorist attack on New York City, which would slowly drive humans toward total annihilation. ---------------NOTE--------------- In this novel, I will call NATO as The Alliances, because the Alliances is a league where all anti-communist nations come together rather than just "North Atlantic nations". Also, everything in the Novel is entirely fictional, meaning that the whole world history in this novel is all made up and based on the real world, so don't accuse me of historical inaccuracies.

In the year 2033 it began. Gods, monsters, devils, angels, every higher creature from every mythology began to bless those they found worthy and share their powers. Eventually with the emergence of the gates, we realized they were preparing us. The so called chosen heroes who enter gates are known as the Blessed and in it’s become the most sought after career in the world. They are the most famous and well known people in the entire world and some are even the leaders of their own nations. They are immensely powerful, beautiful, and charming beings. After five whole years, we still have no idea what the higher’s criteria are for blessing a human. Despite the seemingly loose criteria, only 1 percent of the population actually end up as blessed and gain the privilege of entering gates and defending our world. With all of the excitement around the Blessed, we seem to have forgotten the most important question. Why are they doing this for us and what will they require in return? —— Discord link is : https://discord.gg/yXuqHaS6dc ———————— Additional tags : - yuri (MCs sister and best friend.)

No matter how many doors she opened, she always ended up back in her room.

But some nightmares don’t end when you wake up. Some nightmares want you to stay.

A College student's soul transmigrated into a renowned Princess of 400 BCE who had a very mysterious and tragic ending.

But, she didn’t know- She was the main reason for his damnation- For her, a lonely Prince turned into a ferocious monster, burning down the numerous kingdoms into ashes. ------ [Extract from the Story] In the solitude of an eerie night, I met that stranger again. He was standing tall and straight like a towering spruce, his profile dark against the moonlight as his long and slender fingers were wrapped firmly around the hilt of his unsheathed sword. His deep voice growled furiously while pulling out the sharp and shining blade from the bandit’s heart, “Aren’t you daring enough to lay your dirty fingers on my woman?” Drops of blood tainted the velvety carpet of the grass and the body of the bandit fell on the ground, numb and lifeless. I was awestruck by the smooth strikes of his sword and it was impossible to steady my erratic pulse. Suddenly, his cold and burning gaze fell on me. Though I never met him before, he still felt the closest person; an inexplicable sense of deja vu washed over me, creating an absurd familiarity that messed up all logic. Approaching me, he cupped my chin tenderly in his warm hand as his thumb gently wiped a drop of blood from my cold cheek, making my body shiver alarmingly. My heart was hammering in my ears and his compelling eyes riveted me to the spot. However, noticing his deep wound, I mumbled in a breathy and concerned tone, “Your injury looks deadly. You need immediate treatment.” A deep chuckle greeted me as he pulled me closer to him, wrapping his strong arms around my waist, "Don't bother about that, My love. Did I make you wait for long?" 'My love!! Is he supposed to be my damn lover?' __________ ‘Death is not a worry of mine Even if I must swallow poison I must have you, …’ ~ Lucian Mavis.

It had been awhile when she last saw him. She remembered vividly the day they parted. Myra was glad to have signed those papers but it didn't change the facts that she was afraid of him. Although he had never done anything remotely hostile to her or ever been unkind, shivers ran down her spine. He looked the same. Stoic, expressionless and handsome as ever. But he just was't Myra's cup of tea.

As Mia drove through the bustling city streets, her heart began to race—not from the traffic, but from the chilling knowledge that a bomb had been planted in her car. The news had come through a frantic message on her phone, a warning from an anonymous source that sent her spiraling into a state of panic. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning white as she fought to maintain control. With every red light, her dread deepened. She knew that the moment she stopped the car, the bomb would detonate. The thought of leaving her Lysander behind filled her with a profound sense of sorrow. They had so many plans, dreams of a future together that now felt impossibly distant. With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed Lysander’s number. “Mi Amore?” Lysander’s voice came through, laced with concern. “What’s wrong?” Mia smiled sadly, he could always tell when something was bothering her and yet she was going to leave him. “Lysander , I need you to listen to me,” she said, her voice quivering. “ You’re a very great person. I never thought I would find this type of love. I only thought love like this was just a fairytale. But you….you….” Mia paused taking in a deep breath. “Anna? What’s happening? Is something wrong? You’re scaring me.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she turned her head towards the backseat where the bomb sat. How could she tell this to Lysander? She was going to die and leave him. She was going to leave him alone with the thoughts and dreams they shared. Silence hung heavy on the line, and Anna could almost hear the rapid beating of her heart. “I just found out…… I… I don’t have much time,” she choked out, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m so sorry, love. I won’t be able to see you again.” “Don’t say that! We’ll figure this out! Just tell me what’s happening? ” he urged, desperation creeping into his tone. “No, please, just listen. It’s too late now. I love you so much, and I want you to remember that. You’ve made my life so beautiful. I wish I could hold you one last time.” Her voice broke as she fought to keep her composure. “Anna, don’t—” “I have to go, Lysander . Just know that I’m always with you.” With that, she hung up, her heart shattering into a million pieces. She looked at the cliff ahead of her and stepped on the gas, the car racing towards the cliff. ************* In the heart of a bustling college town, twenty-year-old Anna Mia Harper is juggling classes, bills, and a growing sense of despair as an orphan navigating life on her own.

“Aku bisa membantumu menjadi apa pun yang kau inginkan. Apa yang paling kauinginkan?” Dia bertanya dengan suara lembut sambil menyapu rambut dari dahinya. “Kau benar-benar berpikir bahwa aku akan dengan tulus memeluk seseorang serendah dirimu?” Malu, dia menghindari tatapannya dan mengepalkan tangannya sampai memutih. “Bahkan pikiranmu konyol. Kau sangat menyadari identitasku…” “Ya, aku tahu.” “Kalau begitu katakan. Siapa aku?” Tangan yang memainkan rambutnya, bergerak turun melewati dagunya, dan berakhir di sekitar tenggorokannya. Menguji kekuatan cengkeramannya, dia perlahan mulai memberikan lebih banyak tekanan dan memaksanya untuk melihatnya. Napasnya terasa sakit saat dia mengangkatnya dengan memegangi lehernya hingga tumitnya sedikit terangkat dari lantai. “Aku juga memegang nasib adikmu di telapak tanganku.” Dia bisa melihatnya di matanya, sesuatu di dalam dirinya telah hancur. Matanya, yang dulunya menyerupai langit malam berbintang, tidak lagi memiliki bintang. Saat dia melihat cahaya di matanya memudar, dia mengendurkan tangannya. Dia tidak akan mencoba melarikan diri lagi. Dia tahu ini secara naluriah. Perasaan ini, yang mirip dengan disiram air hangat, jelas merupakan apa yang dia idamkan. Itu tidak seperti nafsu. Ya, itu jelas merupakan keinginan. Setelah dia mengakui perasaannya, dia mulai ingin memiliki seluruh dunianya. “Jika aku tidak bisa memilikimu, aku akan menghancurkanmu.”
