Shield Of The Avatar

Shield of Destiny

In a world governed by six elemental powers, where no one can wield more than two without succumbing to destruction, balance has been the key to survival. But balance is fragile, and chaos is rising. Among the seven ancient families who once protected the world, a prophecy whispers of a Chosen One, a child born with the potential to wield all six powers. Yet this prophecy also brings a shadow—a fear that such power could either save the world or destroy it. The youngest heir of the seven families, a ten-year-old boy, lives unaware of his destiny. Like his six friends, he believes he can wield only two powers, unaware that his extraordinary spiritual strength has already begun to unlock something far greater. His parents and elders, haunted by the prophecy, recognize his unique gift—a bloodline so strong that it could awaken powers beyond comprehension. Their awe is matched by their fear: his potential could make him a savior, or the very force that plunges the world into chaos. When rival magical families, driven by greed and ambition, learn of the boy’s existence, they launch a devastating attack on the seven families, aiming to capture him and exploit his untapped potential. The elders, realizing the magnitude of the threat, make the ultimate sacrifice to protect their descendants. In a desperate act of magic, they send the heirs of each family—including the youngest—to a secret sanctuary, shielding them from the world while ensuring they can train and grow strong. Years pass, and the heirs, now young adults, must emerge from their hidden refuge to confront the chaos overtaking their world. The youngest, still unaware of his true potential, discovers the truth of his lineage and the prophecy that foretells his role as the Chosen One. But the journey ahead is fraught with peril. His ability to wield all six powers defies the natural order, and his spiritual strength makes him a target for those who would manipulate him—or destroy him. Guided by his six companions—four boys and three girls, each carrying their own family’s legacy—the Chosen One must navigate a world on the brink of collapse, uncover the secrets of his powers, and face the terrifying truth of his destiny. Will he restore balance, or will his existence bring the chaos he was born to prevent? In a tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the burden of unimaginable power, The Legacy of Seven explores the fine line between savior and destroyer, and the choices that define a hero.

The Chronicles of the Returned: The Book of Telamon

The Chronicles of the Returned: The Book of Telamon A mythic warrior reborn in the shadow of modern war. A city drowning in ancient prophecy. A shield that remembers. Set between the dreamlike decay of Venice and the blood-soaked ruins of the Balkans, The Chronicles of the Returned – The Book of Telamon is a haunting, visionary epic that merges Greek tragedy, military trauma, and ritual horror. Its protagonist — known only as “The Balkan's wolf” — is no ordinary veteran. He is Ajax reborn: once the son of Telamon, now a shell-shocked ex-UN soldier plagued by visions spoken in Mycenaean Greek and dreams of a blood-soaked fig tree. Haunted by the loss of his wife and child, Ajax seeks answers in the underworlds of Europe’s forgotten cities — where human traffickers like the mysterious and elusive Nessuno (Odysseus) reign. Nessuno has become the modern embodiment of the oligarch : a global oligarch who trades in organs, flesh, and lost souls aboard his AI-powered black yacht, Argo. In the ruins of Marghera, whispers rise of a “pure delivery” — a child untouched, immaculate organs to be harvested an dsold to the undernet. A sacrifice. Meanwhile, in the war-ravaged past, Tychios — a former Red Brigades engineer turned Balkan arms dealer — rebuilds the shield of Ajax from a battlefield anti-riot shell. A hybrid artifact of myth and modern warfare, engraved with a winged goddess who neither forgives nor forgets. Every throw of the dice, every fig in the market, every ghost in the therapy circle — leads Ajax closer to the reckoning that has followed him through centuries. In a narrative that evokes the psychological tension of True Detective, the noir textures of The Third Man, and the existential tragedy of the Iliad, this book asks: What happens when the myths we buried return to collect their debt?

All the Elders in My Sect Are My Avatars!

Note: This is an original story written by TIGR4, not a translation of a novel. Just adding this line to avoid misunderstandings since the title sounds very Chinese... which is intentional. ================================ An avid Xianxia reader suddenly has his dream come true—he wakes up in a world of cultivation. The only problem? Maybe it wasn’t really his dream after all. Now, faced with the daunting reality of countless cultivation realms to climb, countless worlds to ascend through, and countless arrogant young masters to deal with, despair begins to settle in. Fortunately, a glimmer of hope appears amidst the chaos: a mysterious system that could change everything. Armed with elders, ancestors, and a sect leader—who are all actually his own avatars—he no longer feels completely overwhelmed. “At least I don't have to do it all alone… well, technically, I do. They're just avatars, after all.” ------------------------------------------------ Notes: - This story initially had a harem tag, as I wasn't sure whether that possibility might come up and decided to leave it open. However, as the plot has progressed, I now believe that such a scenario is highly unlikely, so I've removed the tag. Of course, I can’t predict the future — it’s possible the main character could enter a second relationship at some very distant point, but again, that seems extremely unlikely. So far, there hasn't been even a hint of a second relationship, and the current one makes it seem nearly impossible for that to happen. - The avatars are directly controlled by the MC, like multiple bodies sharing the same mind. - Despite the MC’s multiple bodies, only his main body will be involved in any romance. - As for the update schedule: I try to release chapters daily, occasionally taking one or two days off per week. Standard update time is around 12 AM (New York time), but this can vary. - If you enjoy the story, please consider leaving a review! And for those interested, you can support me on Patreon and read ahead.  Bye! ---------------------------------- Advanced Chapters on Patreon: patreon.com/TIGR4

Light Of The Shadow | The Battle Of God |

Trong một thế giới mà bản chất được dệt nên từ vô vàn tầng lớp của những ràng buộc vô hình, nơi từng phân tử hiện hữu đều bị khắc ghi bởi định luật của sự trói buộc và mỗi linh hồn đều là con rối bị điều phối bởi chuỗi xích vô tận của nguyên lý. Và trong chính sự điên cuồng ấy, một phản nghịch đã nảy sinh...Từ phản nghịch đó, đứa con của tự do đã ra đời, không phải như một sinh vật, mà như một dị điểm của toàn thể. Lumine là một mầm mống không thuộc về trật tự, một tồn tại gào thét giữa vòm trời bất động, một biểu tượng sống của khước từ mọi gông cùm đã khai sinh ra khát vọng tuyệt đối, hủy diệt mọi ràng buộc. Không phải bằng thù hận, mà bằng chính cơn đói triệt để với tự do tuyệt đối, Lumine và kẻ song hành đã thách thức thực tại, một thực tại vốn là mê cung bất khả phản kháng được dựng nên bởi những kẻ mang danh Thần, những kẻ không tạo ra thế giới mà lại chiếm hữu nó bằng thứ quyền lực mượn danh ý chí. Thế nhưng, ngay khi bàn tay họ tưởng đã chạm đến thứ ánh sáng rực rỡ nơi cuối đường hầm, cái ánh sáng mà họ nghĩ là sự giải thoát thì chính vòm trời ấy sụp đổ, và thực tại cười khẩy bằng tiếng cười của vô số bánh răng vận mệnh gãy vụn. Họ không bị đánh bại bởi kẻ thù, mà bởi chính quy luật đã thối rữa của cái thế giới họ muốn phá tan, nơi mọi hành động dù nhỏ bé nhất cũng bị tính trước trong một ma trận tuyệt đối của hệ quả. Đắng cay thay, cái chân lý mà họ đuổi bắt, cái chân lý trần truồng, tinh khôi và thuần khiết nhất... tự do lại nằm ngay trước mắt họ, song bị che khuất bởi sự tồn tại của một điều không nên tồn tại...Và chính vì thế, sự tồn tại của hắn không thể được dung thứ. Không phải bởi vì đạo lý, mà bởi vì hắn là dấu chấm hết của mọi diễn ngôn. Kẻ đó không nên tồn tại. Không phải bởi vì hắn sai, mà bởi vì hắn là thứ thuần túy, một lỗ hổng mang hình người trong thân thể của một thế giới đang hấp hối vì chính những gì hắn cho phép tồn tại.
