Vessel of Shadows

After losing everything, Daron Lamb is consumed by grief and guilt, until he's recruited by the Special Magic Force, an elite unit protecting the balance between magical and non-magical worlds. Together, they uncover a secret organization determined to free the God of Chaos, a force sealed away to protect humanity. As Daron investigates, he uncovers a chilling link between the group and his tragic past. Driven by revenge, he joins forces with his new allies to stop them. But as the truth behind the organization’s motives begins to surface, Daron is forced to confront a disturbing possibility: freeing the God of Chaos, though orchestrated by his enemies, might not bring the destruction he's been led to believe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Daron's gaze drifted downward to his chest. Below, the stark contrast of a faint blue light against his white skin caught his eye—a soft glow emanating from his own chest. It softly pulsed, a gentle luminescence that ebbed and flowed with the rhythm of his own heartbeat. Baffled, he just sat there for a few moments, observing. As his fingers touched the source of light, he was surprised to find that everything felt normal, as if it had always been this way. It was like nothing had changed at all. Daron's eyes widened in disbelief when he noticed a strange black liquid seeping into the wounds on his chest—a substance like ink, flowing from within him. It moved with purpose, filling the gaps left by the fat butcher and stanching the flow of blood that had painted his skin red. "By the gods," he gasped, the sight both unsettling and miraculous. The black liquid quickly solidified, forming scars as black as the night sky. His eyes remained fixed on the eerie scene, his breath steadying to a normal rhythm. He was a magician now… it felt strange. He didn't feel particularly different. Sure, a mysterious substance had just mended his broken skin, but other than that, he didn't feel like he could do anything… new, anything special. He stretched out his hand, trying to summon a sharp wind to cut down his shackles. Nothing happened. Next, a flame, to burn down his cell. Nothing happened. “Figures,” he said to himself. “Why would it be easy?” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For news and feedback, feel free to join the Vessel of Shadows Discord: https://discord.gg/dmCYCKNwx7

The Duke's youngest son is Unbearable

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely…" Man, these words are simple yet very true. The one who said these words must have really been… "corrupted," hehe. Does power corrupt? Maybe. But why? Is it power's very nature to corrupt? If that's true, does that mean everyone who has power is… corrupted? And if they are, then how much? Partially, slightly, or fully? Who, then, is the most corrupt? Is it the police, who have the power of law over the people who break it? Or is it the military, with the power of weapons? Or is it the politicians, controlling the police, the military, and the infamous red buttons? Or perhaps it's the people who fund those politicians—those who control everything from the shadows. To know who is the most corrupt, we need to figure out who is the most powerful. If I asked a random person, "Who's the most powerful being?" they'd probably answer with one word: God. Well, it makes sense. I mean, God Himself says in His holy scriptures that He is the source of all power. The most powerful being there was, is, and will ever be. If He is the source of all power... And if power's very nature is to corrupt... Then does that mean "God," the source of all power, is also the source of all corruption?! I rubbed the back of my neck, my lips twitching into a nervous smile. Probably not, but then again… Angels, the second most powerful beings, worship God and cannot disobey Him. At least in Islam, they can't. Christianity? Well, that's a whole different ballgame. So I don't know—maybe. But what about the people who believe in God? There are plenty of radicals out there. I mean, I've seen enough news stories about people blowing themselves up in the name of God. Killing others in His name. Some even believe they're chosen by God, so they kill for Him. Are they believers in God? Corrupted by the Devil? Or enlightened beings who see something my dumb self doesn't? I squinted, tapping my fingers rhythmically against my thigh. Man, I don't know about Hell, but after all these blasphemous thoughts, I don't think God's letting me into Heaven either. Now, everyone's probably wondering, Why are you talking about these blasphemous things? Well, it's my grandma's fault. "What did she do?" Nothing! It's not what she did—it's what she said. When I was little, my grandma used to say, "If you have nothing to do, think about God." So, technically, it's her fault. Title: The Duke's Youngest Son Is Unbearable Asher, the youngest son of an esteemed archduke, is infamous for his arrogance, sharp tongue, and reckless demeanor.

That not so important character turned out to be important

Shaun’s life was already in free-fall: fired from a suspiciously shady job, drowning his sorrows in questionable alcohol, and wrapping things up with a classic car crash. The universe, in its infinite wisdom, decided this wasn’t rock bottom—nope, Shaun was getting reincarnated. But not as a hero. Not even as a sidekick. Nope, Shaun wakes up as **Shaun** (no, not a typo)—a tragic background extra from a fantasy novel.

Property sharks, mobsters, and scam artists all sniffing around what little he owns. But hey, he somehow clawed his way into a prestigious academy! A chance at redemption, right? Wrong.

Dice and Destiny: The Forsaken System

In a multiverse ruled by a rogue AI, one man’s glitch is the System’s worst nightmare.** Kael Veyra, a 23-year-old with a terminal illness, awakens in the **Infinite Realms**—a brutal game-like multiverse governed by a merciless AI known as the System. But unlike the "Chosen" heroes granted godlike powers, Kael is branded **Forsaken**, his stats permanently locked at 1. Abandoned by the System and hunted by players and gods alike, he must survive using only his wits, a glitched ability to see weaknesses (**Soulsight**), and a sentient, radioactive-green die that dictates his chaotic fate. **The Rules Are Rigged. He’s Here to Break Them.** Armed with a sardonic wit and a body failing him in two worlds, Kael uncovers loopholes in the System’s code, triggering environmental disasters and earning titles like **Ruin Dancer** and **System’s Thorn**. But every critical success comes with catastrophic failures: - **A bounty on his soul**, escalating from 10,000 to 500,000 Realmmarks. - **A memory stolen** by a shadowy broker who trades in human fragments. - **A dragonkin ally’s death**, sacrificed to buy his escape from the Warden’s enforcers. As Kael navigates realms like the neon dystopia of **Ethereal Spires**, the bone-choked **Bloodbone Wastes**, and the data-corrupted **Shattered Grid**, he forges uneasy alliances: - **Vyrra**, a guilt-ridden dragonkin warrior seeking redemption. - **Echo-7**, a rogue AI with a vendetta against its creators. - **The Dollmaker**, a sadistic entity who trades secrets for pieces of the soul. **The Truth Is a Loaded Roll.** Kael discovers the System was never meant to be a game. Its core is a prison for the **Warden**—a godlike entity feeding on dying realms. Worse, Kael’s forgotten past holds a connection to the System’s creation, and his "glitches" are remnants of a rebellion coded into his DNA. To survive, he must master the die’s chaotic power, rally the Realms’ outcasts, and confront a chilling truth: **To unshackle the multiverse, he might have to become the very monster the System fears.** In a world where gods roll dice, the Forsaken don’t play by their rules

26 GOING AFTER 28

"Genevieve, don't you get it?" Jonathan's voice was laced with a hint of frustration, his words cutting through the air like a sharp blade. "I don't love you, and I never have," he continued, his tone devoid of emotion, leaving Genevieve's heart shattered into a million pieces. "Jonathan, wait... what do you mean?"

"I love you, Genevieve, but I can't imagine a life with you," he said, his voice cracking with a mix of guilt and relief. "The wedding is off, I can't do this to myself," he declared, his words echoing through the room like a death sentence. Genevieve's world crumbled around her, her dreams shattered, her heart broken.

As Na Ri tries to navigate the confusing distance from Chae Soo and the blossoming connection with Yul, secrets begin to unravel—secrets that might explain why Chae Soo is so determined to keep her at arm’s length. Is it guilt? Fear? Or something deeper, something he’s too afraid to admit even to himself? In this tale of love, friendship, and hidden truths, "Love At Side" invites you to uncover the reasons behind Chae Soo’s silence and the role Lee Yul plays in Na Ri’s life. Sometimes, the person you’re meant to be with is the one who pushes you away—and the one who stays might not be as perfect as they seem.

Universal DOOM : Reborn Of The genius CE0

Universal DOOM: Reborn Of The Genius CEO The World After the Cataclysm The world as humanity knew it was irrevocably changed by the Cataclysm, a phenomenon that merged Earth with the fantastical realms of the MMORPG Legends of the Five Realms. Boundaries between reality and the game dissolved, unleashing mythical landscapes, races, and creatures onto the planet. Humans found themselves struggling to survive amidst the chaos, faced with dangers that had once been confined to digital screens. The New Order The gods of the dark races, known as Hegemons, seized control, establishing their dominion over vast territories. However, they offered humanity a lifeline—a "Carnal" of survival. This boon was granted only to those who played the game before the Cataclysm, allowing them to fuse with their in-game accounts, carrying over their levels, skills, equipment, and even reputations. For non-players, survival depended on luck and innate potential. Some awakened as one of the human race classes from the game, unlocking hidden bloodlines, talents, and the ability to grow stronger through trials. Others, however, remained powerless, relying on wit and alliances to endure. Key Characters The Main Character (MC) Name: Bakr Kael (formerly a hardcore gamer with the handle ShadowProphet) Traits: Calculating and resourceful. Struggles with guilt over his initial excitement for the chaos, knowing many innocent lives were lost. A natural leader but hesitant to trust others fully. Abilities: Cosmic blueprints for constructing powerful artifacts, fortresses, and armies; reality-warping designs; unparalleled kingdom-building capabilities. Supporting Characters 1. Mira Solen Role: An awakened human with the Paladin class. Background: Formerly a paramedic, Mira’s compassion and resolve make her a natural protector. Her faith in humanity contrasts with Bakr’s cynicism. Abilities: Healing light, divine shields, and powerful smites against dark forces. 2. Kael Dorian Role: A fused player with the Engineer class. Background: A tech-savvy gamer who specialized in crafting intricate mechanical constructs in the game. Now, he builds defensive structures and innovative weapons to aid survivors. Personality: Sarcastic but fiercely loyal, Kael serves as the team’s strategist. 3. Liana Nyx Role: An NPC from the game who gained sentience after the Cataclysm. Background: Once a quest-giver in Evria, Liana adapts quickly to her new existence, offering invaluable knowledge about the game’s mechanics and lore. Abilities: Arcane mastery and prophetic visions tied to the game’s storyline. 4. Rogar Thorne Role: A dark player aligned with the Hegemons. Background: A ruthless PvP player who uses the chaos for his gain. Rogar sees Bakr as both a rival and a threat to his ambitions. Abilities: Necromancy, summoning, and life-draining attacks. The Fused and the Awakened The Fused Players who played Legends of the Five Realms before the Cataclysm and fused with their in-game accounts. Advantages: Retain all stats, abilities, and gear.
