Regret soon consumed Ace after the divorce. He never expected that his boring ex-wife would move on overnight, and be living her best life. Not only did a young heir of an influential family claim to be her underling, but a famous celebrity confessed to being her fan as well. Even one of the wealthiest people in the country referred to her as their senior. “I don't care how strong your background is, Joanna Pierce. I'll make sure to tear down your walls!” With that, the second son of the Moran family set out to protect the woman in secret. Ace: "My ex-wife is so fragile that she can't even stand on her own two feet, you mustn't take advantage of her." To which everyone replied, "Who would dare to mess with her? She'd rip our heads off if we ever get into a minor disagreement!' Ace : "My ex-wife is far too naive, you shouldn't toy with her feelings" And yet people would say, "I’m sorry? We've never seen a naive woman act so unapologetically!' Ace: "Come, darling. Let me introduce you to this powerful figure!" To which the powerful figure responded with a deep bow, "No, no, she's the boss around these parts!” Since then, Ace has had to live a double life. He was an almighty CEO during the day, but come night time,he'd be sobbing on his knees, hoping to win Joanna's heart back.

The youngest all-round best actress, Gu Zhi, has traveled through time and ended up in the body of the sweet and naive real heiress she was about to play. Originally, the owner of the body could have soared to new heights after reclaiming her position as the true heiress. However, she stubbornly turned herself into a green tea character hated by the entire internet, ending up alienated from her family with no one to collect her body after her death. On the parenting variety show, her family accompanies the fake heiress on the program but refuses to acknowledge her. Biological mother: I don't have a daughter like you, Yiyi is my daughter. Biological brother: Quit the entertainment industry, make way for Yiyi, and I'll let you come home. Gu Zhi: ...Who cares. I bring my labor-efficient adoptive parents and my adoptive brothers, who are potential stocks in various industries, onto the variety show. Isn't that lovely!! In this way, Gu Zhi and her entire family, who were almost forced out of the entertainment circle by criticism, suddenly became explosively popular. Fan 1: Damn! This woman Gu Zhi has such amazing acting skills! Her singing and dancing are top-notch! She's so skilled at gaming too, is there anything she can't do!!? Fan 2: Sob sob Zhi Zhi, what kind of fairy parents are these, unbelievable. It's another day of being moved to tears by the celestial parent-child relationship. Fan 3: Ahhhh, Zhi Zhi's big brother is so handsome! Second brother, I want to marry him too! Third brother, I could admire that body for a year! I wouldn't mind waiting for the fifth brother either /shy /shy When Gu Zhi stood on the industry's most prestigious award stage to receive her well-deserved Best Actress award, her suddenly awakened biological father and brothers blocked her way, asking for forgiveness. However, they were ruthlessly thrown out by the domineering CEO big brother: Zhi Zhi is a member of the Qin family, don't try to impersonate. That evening, the semi-retired Emperor Qi officially announced the female lead of his new movie and specifically tagged Gu Zhi: Sorry, she's already a member of the Qi family. The entire internet: !!!???

Synopsis: Kazuki Amagiri was always a kid with a troubling life, abusive parents, poverty, being bullied at school you know the usual sob story that probably goes in a documentary for the early life of a serial killer or something. Throughout his life he's always wondered if maybe the reason world hates him was because he had the audacity to exist. But through a series of events he met his best friend coinciding with his introduction to a series of novels where he found his spark of resilience to carry on in life in a character named Markus one of the main antagonists of the book. And ten years later he's a university student, dormmates with his best friend and is just about to finish getting his degrees. He'd also just finished playing the third installment in a his favorite video game franchise adapted from the same novels that gave him hope. All was going well in life, things were looking up until in one cruel twist it was over, no fanfare, no "going out with a bang", Kazuki's life just fizzled out like a candle in the wind. Curiously though, Kazuki's story was not over as he found himself in the body of "Markus" at the start of his story. How will this strangely ironic twist of fate change the world at large? And more importantly how will it change our main character? Story also available RoyalRoad.com profile: https://www.royalroad.com/profile/743032

``` Após passar sua infância acorrentada, Alice era uma criança que desconhecia tanto o amor quanto a alegria. Desprezada pela sua família enquanto era torturada em nome do bem maior por anos, ela se tornou insensível a qualquer sentimento e pensamento. Isto é, até que um dia, um homem de preto lhe ofereceu uma chance de escapar. Havia, outrora, rumores disseminados sobre um inferno sem fim, uma terra de morte gloriosa e oportunidades terríveis. Tolos partiam em sua busca, e os astutos jamais se aventuravam nela. Somente quando seus misteriosos malefícios se espalharam pela terra é que todos ouviram seu nome — o Abismo. Uma única gota de seu sangue poderia conceder a alguém o poder de controlar sombras, mover-se mais rápido que o som ou força maior que a do homem mais forte. No entanto, isso tinha um custo; o sangue sempre garantiria que aqueles que o consumissem se tornassem parte do Abismo, com uma exceção — Alice. Rejeitada pelo seu próprio sangue, era seu destino apodrecer em uma gaiola dourada. Mas, aquele dia fatídico mudou tudo. Agraciada com uma segunda chance na vida, uma chance para mudar sua vida e reivindicar vingança contra sua família, uma chance de mergulhar fundo no Abismo e ganhar o poder para governar seu próprio destino, Alice tomou sua mão, inconsciente do destino que se desenrolava diante dela.

Dois séculos após a Grande Guerra, a paz entre humanos e lobisomens finalmente foi alcançada, ou assim todos acreditam. Lobisomens reinam como deuses, e os humanos permanecem blissfully inconscientes de seu verdadeiro lugar na nova ordem mundial. Para manter esse frágil equilíbrio, a cada ano, um punhado de humanos "sortudos" é selecionado de vários distritos para frequentar a Lunaris Academy, uma instituição prestigiosa que promete glória, status e uma chance de se misturar com a elite. Os escolhidos são celebrados como os poucos sortudos, destinados a casar-se com poderosos alfas e ascender como luna. Este ano, Violet Purple está entre os escolhidos, para surpresa de todos. Para uma garota órfã adotada por uma prostituta desonrada, este é um bilhete dourado para uma vida melhor, ou pelo menos é o que dizem a ela. Mas a Lunaris Academy não é o paraíso que aparenta ser. Tudo o que Violet e seus companheiros humanos foram ensinados é uma mentira. Os humanos estão longe de serem iguais; são peões em um jogo muito maior. A academia é nada mais do que uma gaiola dourada, e os alunos são cordeiros levados ao abate, brinquedos para os alfas se divertirem em seus jogos impiedosos. Para piorar as coisas, Violet chama a atenção dos jogadores mais perigosos deste jogo, os Quatro do Terror: o Alfa do Norte, Alfa do Sul, Alfa do Leste e Alfa do Oeste. Cada um é mais perigoso, mais perverso e mais poderoso que o anterior. Mas mesmo entre si, os alfas estão divididos, cada um com suas próprias ambições mortais. Ainda assim, todos têm os olhos sobre ela. Eles esperam que Violet siga o fluxo, caia na linha como os outros que adoram aos seus pés, se quebre sob seus jogos. Mas Violet não é como os outros. Ela se recusa a se curvar. Ela vai desafiá-los a todos.

A boy who has forgotten even his own name, hating humanity and its civilization that reeks of lies, is raised by the ruthless yet honest laws of the forest. For him, life is synonymous with survival; his philosophy is pragmatism, his weapon is raw instinct. This one-man kingdom is shaken by an ancient, moon-white tree he discovers in the heart of the forest. The spiritual fruits it offers promise a chance to "ascend," but the boy's nature is not to trust, but to test. This mistrust culminates in him witnessing the creation of a monstrous abomination (Yaoguai) when he experiments on an innocent animal with the pure, uncontrolled life energy (Qi). Forced to consume the fruit himself to defeat the beast, he is driven to the brink of madness, attaining a flawed yet overwhelming power through a Qi Deviation (Qi Zou Ru Mo). Unable to contain this new, wild power, his body pushes him to create his own hell. Without a master or a technique, guided only by pain and the will to survive, he begins a journey of superhuman Body Cultivation (Tixiū). His ultimate goal is not to accept the ancient tree as a gift, but to uproot it like a prize, to possess the very source of his power. The tree's mental assaults on him reveal fragmented memories of a manor in flames and a sorrowful lullaby, hinting that a personal tragedy lies at the root of his hatred for humanity. His journey takes him to the fringes of civilization, to the Thunderclap Peaks. Here, he chooses the Path of the Rock to tame his power and, in the process, makes his first contact with established Cultivator Sects who become aware of his existence. This encounter transforms him from a mere beast into a strategist who uses pawns for his own gain. "Zarziyan: The Price of Ascension" is not just a story of empowerment, but a saga of a lonely soul searching for his identity, confronting the ghosts of his past, and in the process, transforming from a monster to a king, and perhaps even to a god. It is the tale of a conqueror forging his own path with blood and steel in a world beyond good and evil, where absolute will and power are the only law.

"They wanted to eliminate the prince. In the end, they awakened the monster within him." Lucas Ashir Ingriss, second prince of the kingdom of Ingrissia, bears a name synonymous with glory. His ancestor, Raiden Ingriss, was one of the Five Heroes who sealed Yshvar, the Dark Lord, saving the world at the cost of his own sacrifice. But the past is the past, and House Ingriss is no longer as dominant as it once was. Gifted with an exceptional talent for fighting and swordsmanship, and a formidable intellect, Lucas is a caring and thoughtful prince. Yet he has a dream burning inside him: he dreams of rebuilding "the once great empire of Ingrissia", a once dominant and feared power across the continent. Even if it meant destroying the established order. He'll do anything to fulfill his dream. His quest for power takes him into the bloody corridors of politics, where every smile conceals a dagger. But Lucas, knowing all this, moves forward without turning away from his goal. Yet a forgotten threat is preparing to resurface. The seal of the Five Heroes is breaking. Yshvar and the darkness... what everyone had forgotten and only read about in books telling legends, were preparing their return. When Lucas goes to the royal academy, he begins to gather powerful and loyal allies for his quest. But some people, seeing him as a threat to their power, began plotting against him. During an expedition, Lucas was ambushed and left for dead in the most dangerous place on the continent: the legendary Black Forest. But Lucas isn't dead. He'll be back. Different. Unpredictable. ~~~ Thank you for reading "The Second Prince: A Mad Prodigious Swordsman" a light novel of intrigue, power, conflict, betrayal, revenge and much more. —- ENTRY TO [WSA2025]—— If you like, don't hesitate to share HAPPY READING

"Block him." "He's technically still my boss." "Then block him with dignity." The call ended again. And then started again. I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt. "Yes, Mr. Walton?" "Have you changed your mind yet?" I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand. "You're avoiding the question." "Because it's a dumb question." He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. "It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer." "It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to." There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker. "You are acting unreasonably." " Unreasonable?" I sat up. "I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday." "Isabella-" "Certainly not, Mr. Walton." I mimicked his tone perfectly. "I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with." SYNOPSIS Isabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story. But Adrien Walton doesn’t take no—especially not when he’s convinced she’s a gold digger. Suddenly, her student loans are piling up, her father’s vet clinic is on the brink of eviction and her brother is about to be kicked out of college. Coincidence? She thinks not. Adrien Walton is calm, calculating—and he's just pulled every string to corner Isabella into the perfect position. Now she’s stuck choosing between pride and survival. So she agrees to his offer: be his fake girlfriend. No feelings attached. No drama. Just business. Or so she thought. "Conference Room B. Fifteen minutes," he said, passing by without a glance. The folder he pushed across the table landed with a thud. I opened it. The contract. All of it. --- Enemies to lovers? Check. Slow burn? Hmmnyea. Banter so sharp it might file your nails? Yes. Delicious workplace tension? Of course. Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely. Smut?? Wanna find out? Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

“Indra é um jovem que vive sob a ilusão de uma vida ordinária, até que um dia fatídico, durante uma excursão com seus amigos, rompe o véu e revela um mundo imerso em segredos antigos e insondáveis. Atraído por um labirinto de maravilhas e terrores, ele embarca em uma jornada épica para desvendar a verdade que se esconde nas sombras deste reino enigmático — e confrontar os ecos sombrios e esquecidos de seu próprio passado misterioso.”

Jason sank to his knees as smoke swallowed the sky, the color of it an angry crimson, like the world itself was bleeding. The house before him, her house, collapsed in slow motion, boards shrieking and crumbling as if mourning their own destruction. His chest caved with a ragged sob, the kind that seemed to come from somewhere deeper than his lungs, deeper even than his body. Everything around him blurred—faces, sirens, flames—until all that remained was the ash. He should have looked away. Should have closed his eyes. But he didn't. He couldn't. The paramedics moved solemnly through the smoke, their silhouettes stark against the firelit haze. The stretchers were draped in white sheets—too still, too final. He counted them without meaning to. One... two... three. Jason didn't flinch. His heart was hollowed out, like something had been carved from within him with a hot blade. It should've been him. Not Selena. "No," he whispered hoarsely, his voice splintering. "No, it can't be." He stumbled backward, eyes wide, brain refusing to bridge the gap between what he saw and what he believed. Reality came in slow waves, each one more unbearable than the last. And then he was moving, sprinting toward the stretchers with a desperate, raw urgency. A rescuer with no one left to save. "Selena," he choked, reaching trembling hands toward the nearest form. The heat of the fire still lingered in the air, as if the world itself was scorched. He lifted the sheet with shaking fingers. What stared back at him was no longer her face—just blackened skin, unrecognizable. His mind rejected it. It can't be her. It isn't.

"Isn't this the weak young master of the Valhalla family?" "Hahaha! I heard he only knows how to waste money... Completely useless." Another voice, dripping with false pity, chimed in. "Both his sister and brother are Tamers, strong ones at that. While him... the eldest... pathetic!!" The final word, spat out like a curse, hung in the air: "Useless!" In this world, where the bond with powerful Beasts dictated one's standing, where strength was synonymous with the ferocity and strength of your companion. Christopher Valhalla was an anomaly. He found solace not in the thrill of battle or the acquisition of monstrous power, but in the simple, fleeting joys of life. He enjoyed partying, clubs, and women. He offered no retort to the cruel rumors that trailed him like a shadow. Because, truth be told, a knot of fear tightened in his stomach at the mere sight of the majestic, often terrifying, creatures that others commanded. But every life, regardless of its perceived worth, eventually finds its end. For Christopher, it came not in the jaws of a wild Beast, nor in a duel he was ill-equipped for, but in the insidious grip of a rare and incurable sickness. Some days later his flame flickered and he died, leaving behind a void filled with the echoes of scorn. Yet, where one life ended, another began. In the silent stillness of Christopher's vacant shell, a new consciousness stirred. A soul, bearing the weight of unmatched power and a reputation that sent shivers down the spines of even the most formidable Tamers, had arrived. This was the Supreme Tamer, a legend whispered in hushed tones across the world, a force of nature who had inexplicably perished at the hands of betrayal. Given this unexpected second chance, the Supreme Tamer, now inhabiting the frail form of Christopher Valhalla, felt a strange sense of acceptance. He looked upon the unfamiliar yet familiar faces of his new family – the concerned worry etched on their features – and a flicker of something akin to kinship sparked within him. A silent vow formed in his mind, hardening into an unbreakable resolve. The rumors that clung to this body like a shroud would be torn away. And the five Master Tamers who had orchestrated his demise in his previous life… They would learn the true meaning of fear. Their betrayal would be answered, not with petty revenge, but with the full, terrifying might of the Supreme Tamer, reborn. The world was about to discover that "useless" could be the most dangerous disguise of all. _______ Author's word, This Books will remain free till it clock 100 Chapters!

Sinopse – “Sob o Ruído da Cidade” Em um mundo onde quase todos nascem com individualidades — habilidades únicas que moldam carreiras, status e sobrevivência —, ser forte não é mais uma escolha. É uma sentença. Kael Arashi não quer salvar o mundo. Nem destruí-lo. Com seus poderes — ele vive à margem da sociedade, longe dos holofotes da Associação de Heróis, longe dos vilões mascarados. Seu único objetivo? Tornar-se forte o bastante para viver em paz, sem depender de ninguém. Mas a cidade nunca dorme. Enquanto Kael tenta desaparecer nas sombras da metrópole, uma nova ameaça cresce em silêncio. Um homem sem poderes, nascido da dor e do abandono, constrói um exército a partir dos esquecidos — e jura apagar o mundo das individualidades, custe o que custar. Dois caminhos distantes. Duas ideologias opostas. E um confronto inevitável. Nesta história de ação lenta, suspense psicológico, comédia amarga e laços improváveis, a linha entre heróis e vilões é turva, e até mesmo a bondade pode ser uma forma de controle. Nem todo herói é bom. Nem todo vilão é cruel. E às vezes, a única forma de paz... é a guerra que você tentou evitar.

If you’re looking for another cheerful power fantasy where the hero rises, wins hearts, and saves the world with plot armor so thick it could stop a meteor with just a tiny finger then stop this isn’t that story. This is not a tale of hope. This is a tale of Dead. In a decaying multiverse governed by the Samsara of Creation and Destruction, worlds collapse, merge, and bleed into each other. The strong don’t always survive. The kind rarely thrive. And fate… fate is just a prettier word for torment it the synonym of suffering. As forgotten worlds rot and monstrous truths crawl from the void, Nine divine houses tighten their grip on what remains in their hands. The shrines lie. The Seeker System watches. The gates open, not as miracles—but as warnings. Behind each one lies a trial. A silence. A scream. A dead end. If you're tired of pretty lies and want a world that hurts, one that haunts, one that speaks to the part of you that knows not all stories end with salvation— Then step inside. But don't expect to leave whole.

Looking blankly at the pavilion in front of him and the box of delicate cakes, Wei Lian arrived at a conclusion: He better jump at the river. It may be painful but it'll save him from future problems. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wei Lian have always thought that transmigration, rebirth, and all it's synonyms are IMPOSSIBLE. Well, reality has always loved proving him right and slapping him in the face. But could anyone tell him into which novel or era he had transmigrated to?!! Where's his system? Where's his golden finger?! And what's with this man who's full of contradictions ahh? Leave him alone, He's straight as a ruler!! He wants to file a complaint! This poor, humble, undergrad psychology student can't take any more of this!!

Em um mundo onde a estrada é tão perigosa quanto os segredos que carrega, dois estranhos são forçados a compartilhar o mesmo caminho. Turbo, um caminhoneiro negro, musculoso e de poucas palavras, vive para o ronco do seu fiel *Iron Beast*, um caminhão que é mais parceiro que máquina. Marcado por um passado que ele enterra sob óculos escuros e cicatrizes, Turbo é um homem prático, guiado por lealdade e um senso bruto de justiça, mas avesso a heroísmos. Sua vida na estrada é solitária — até o dia em que Hope cruza seu caminho. Hope, uma jovem de olhos assombrados e coração teimoso, carrega o peso de uma fuga desesperada. Com um terço como único elo com o passado, ela enfrenta o mundo com desconfiança, lutando para sobreviver em um país que a rejeita. Sua coragem é testada a cada passo, mas o medo que a persegue é tão real quanto as chamas que assombram seus pesadelos. Quando o destino joga Hope no caminho de Turbo, a tensão entre eles é imediata. Ele não quer se envolver; ela não sabe em quem confiar. Mas, na vastidão das estradas americanas, entre desertos e cidades pulsantes, os dois encontram algo inesperado: uma parceria relutante que pode ser a chave para enfrentar os perigos que os espreitam. Em *Turbo: Estrada para Esperança*, a jornada é mais do que quilômetros — é uma batalha por redenção, confiança e um lugar para chamar de lar.

Desde o primeiro dia, a mensagem era clara: seres fracos morrem cedo . Leonia Bellius nasceu com esse destino gravado em sua pele – uma criatura frágil e amaldiçoada, vista como uma perdedora para todos, ninguém imaginava que duraria tanto. Muito menos prever que um jovem de aparência insignificante enfrentaria 14 anos de treinamento implacável para se tornar a candidata mais promissora a ordem dos Arautos de Prata. O dia de sua glória parecia certo: a Cerimônia de Formatura. Porém, o destino, sempre traiçoeiro com os destemidos, transformou o momento que deveria ser de triunfo em humilhação. Diante de todos seus companheiros do Arquiducado de Montreal, Leonia foi reprovada. Um golpe que faria qualquer um desistir – mas não ela. Insatisfeita e determinada, ao invés de seguir em frente, ela decide resolver esse assunto à base do famoso ‘diálogo’ com aquele que a reprovou diretamente: O Arquiduque Monteiro. Como resposta a seus atos, a punição é certa: a morte. Mas, como se os deuses ainda brincassem com suas ambições, uma nova oportunidade foi lançada aos seus pés. Dois anos sob o comando do implacável Príncipe dos Mercenários, em Arion, e ela poderia assumir o posto tão almejado. O problema? Enfrentar aquele mercenário insolente e imprevisível era tão perigoso quanto caçar um Garras de Sangue – talvez até pior. Agora, Leonia precisa superar não apenas seus limites, mas também seus maiores medos e desafetos. Pela honra e pela glória.

Silent Noise For the past five years, people have been going missing - in the most mysterious way. It always starts the same. They begin to lose their minds. Not gradually - suddenly. Violently. They rant about a noise only they can hear. But they insist... it's not just noise. They describe it as a melody - strange and haunting. Piano chords layered with birdsong, ocean waves crashing, and, oddly, the crackle of chains - like someone imprisoned. And then, a hum. A low, slow hum... like a prisoner singing to himself in the dark. But the hum is unsettling. Beautiful... but wrong. Like Lucifer humming a lullaby to his master before the fall. They say it draws you in like a siren's call. Sweet. Hypnotic. Irresistible. Until it doesn't stop. Until it becomes constant. Then it becomes noise. A maddening one. Worse than any alarm - like an emergency call you can't ignore. Ring. Ring. Will you answer it? That beautiful, cursed sound that only you can hear? Or will you let it ring... let it drive you mad? Because once you hear it... it never stops. And no one else can hear it. So they pick up the call, whispering: "I can hear you... I'm not mad... or am I?" Some sob. Some chuckle. And then they follow the sound - into the unknown. They never return. No bodies. No signs of death. Just madness... and a strange melody. Doctors call it insanity. All medical reports show the same signs: Auditory hallucinations. Psychological breakdown. Patients are declared unstable, admitted, treated... And then - they vanish. It's been five years. Ten people gone. No trace. No clues. Just the same mysterious melody. The media calls it a hoax. The police call it a prank. "Kids being kids," they say. Excuses. Lies. Silence. And then one day... it stopped. No more madness. No more disappearances. No more sound. That was the day Isabella Eric came to Edenville. A town drowning in secrets. A girl with a life far from perfect. A past she barely understands. But her arrival is no accident. She doesn't know it yet - but Isabella has a connection to the Silent Noise. A deep one. A dangerous one. What is her purpose in Edenville? What ties her to the missing people? Will she face the melody? Will love save her... or destroy her? Find out in SILENT NOISE.

"Dragões e seus descendentes dominam os céus, a terra e os mares... a humanidade sobrevive nas brechas, sonhando com um retorno." O poder vem da besta que você doma. Lobos, falcões, serpentes, aranhas, quimeras, quanto mais forte sua invocação, mais brilhante seu futuro. Pena para o nosso protagonista. Quando todos os outros invocaram salamandras, águias, cães trolls (não doge) ou tigres, ele conseguiu... Bem, digamos que a única coisa mais baixa na cadeia alimentar é a terra. Zombado, intimidado e vivendo como o alvo de todas as piadas, ele não está exatamente ganhando. Mas desistir não é uma opção... Seus pais idosos venderam tudo para sua chance "fracassada", e ele não vai deixar que seja em vão. Mas bem, esta é a história dele. O domador de bestas mais fraco? Aqui está a coisa sobre estar no fundo: isso ensina você a escalar. E dragões? Acontece que eles também começam pequenos. À medida que reinos desmoronam sob a ganância e ameaças externas, o domador mais fraco começa sua ascensão. Siga seu caminho enquanto ele desbloqueia um potencial tão raro, tão aterrorizante, que leva a dragões... Cada linha evolutiva leva aos mais fortes 'Dragões SSS'. Aviso: Contém dragões que podem acabar com o mundo, vingança do azarão alimentada por ridículo, protagonista com escamas de dragão, nobres moralmente questionáveis, evoluções assustadoras de criaturas e tantas reviravoltas que você se perguntará se o mais fraco realmente significa o mais sortudo. Um protagonista que quer provar que todos estão errados... mesmo que isso o mate. Alerta de spoiler: Não vai. Para aqueles que adoram muita diversão, este é para você. Se você está procurando uma história mais sombria, procure em outro lugar (Talvez Sistema Utopiano (;) Este é sobre se divertir e domar expectativas. Se você quiser saber mais sobre a capa: Sim, essa é a Luna, a FL... A pele e as roupas dela estão se transformando em escamas cintilantes por causa de seu poder de dragão. Lembra da Sailor Moon? Garotas mágicas? Agora imagine se a roupa mágica não fosse um vestido fofo, mas um dragão de verdade! O dragão é o vestido... Não é apenas moda; é fusão. Bestas de alto nível tendem a deixar sua marca, e Luna usa isso como um chefe, realizando o movimento de poder supremo.

Warning: This novel contains gore. You've been warned. When does someone become a monster? When they kill another human? Or perhaps when they turn into a beast obsessed with blood? Simple—you don’t become one. You’re born as one. The thrill in every scream, the pleasure in every sob, the satisfaction in every murder—that is what it means to be a monster. But... what would happen if a monster were unleashed in a peaceful world? Arthur. The greatest—and worst—assassin of all time. No one knows his face. Only legends. Only records of brutally slaughtered victims. A case with no answers. Only one thing is certain: once you become his target, you’d better savor your last days alive.

Zarte vivia preso à rotina cinzenta de um mundo em declínio. Até que começaram as visões. Cidades engolidas pelo fogo. Criaturas rastejando entre ruínas. Um mal invisível que devorava a humanidade de dentro pra fora. Mas aquilo não era um pesadelo. Eram fragmentos de um futuro inevitável. Na noite em que o Colapso quebrou o mundo, Zarte despertou o Olho Negro — uma força ancestral e faminta que o conecta a realidades paralelas, onde entidades indescritíveis moldam a existência. Dado como morto, ele desaparece por cinco anos. E quando retorna… o mundo já não é o mesmo. Agora, monstros híbridos — os Deme Humanos — dominam a nova era. Famílias reinam como deuses. E os sobreviventes lutam por poder em academias onde se treinam habilidades únicas e selam contratos com horrores ocultos. Zarte busca respostas. Busca Melissa, a garota que perdeu — e que talvez tenha se tornado a única luz em meio ao abismo. Mas em um mundo onde alianças são frágeis, traições sussurram no escuro e até o amor pode ser uma arma... A maior ameaça não está nas sombras. Ela brilha sob a luz do dia. No centro de tudo... está ela. Melissa. A destinada a se tornar a Rainha da Luz. O fim do mundo já começou. E Zarte talvez seja a última chama antes da escuridão total.
