Becoming Hollow Webnovel

Forensic psychologist Eleanor "Ellie" Grayson is called to evaluate Jonas Blackwood, the sole survivor of a gruesome massacre linked to an occult ritual. Jonas exhibits disturbing behavior—his eyes empty, his voice shifting, and his words cryptic: “We are many. We are hollow.” At first, Ellie assumes he’s suffering from severe psychological trauma, but when a wave of unexplained violence spreads through the psychiatric hospital where he’s held, she realizes something far more sinister is at play. As Ellie investigates, she uncovers a chilling legend—The Hollow Ones. Once human, these beings have been emptied of all emotions, desires, and identities, becoming vessels for an ancient, unknowable force. The more people they consume, the stronger their presence in the world. And the more Ellie learns about them, the more they take notice of her. Soon, she begins experiencing eerie symptoms—her reflection lags in mirrors, she hears voices whispering from the shadows, and she feels her emotions dulling as if something is siphoning her very soul. Desperate for answers, she joins forces with Dr. Alistair Kincaid, an occult historian who warns that once someone is marked by the Hollow Ones, the process of hollowing out is nearly unstoppable. As Ellie fights to retain her sense of self, she discovers that Jonas Blackwood’s excavation of an ancient burial site may have unleashed the Hollow Ones once more. The entities do not kill—they spread, infecting the minds and bodies of the living, transforming them into soulless husks. Now, Ellie must race against time to stop the spread before she loses herself completely. But how do you fight something that is already inside you? And if the price of survival means sacrificing a part of her humanity, is she willing to pay it? In a chilling blend of supernatural horror and psychological suspense, The Hollow Ones is a terrifying exploration of identity, possession, and the creeping fear of losing what makes us human.

"I will protect you." She said, with a determined gaze. "You can Barely even protect yourself. You are not strong enough." He retorted. "Then, just wait for Me to get stronger." She said, with a smile. "You have no right to be here. We cut ties remember?" He said, glaring at her fiercely. "I am not here for you. I am here for the family. I still have people I treasure here. So let me through or else..." She completed her statement by majestically drawing out her sword. So many secrets lay hidden. Injustice in the form of justice. Lies, fabricated to become truth. Deception roams around, unleashed. And a Naive girl, who had never seen the shadow that lurked around in the abyss. Will she Survive? Will she fail? It is up to you to find out.

The Priest of Hollow Hill For centuries, Salvatore Vernoux has existed in the shadows—once a feared warlord, now a revered priest in a quiet village. But behind his holy facade lies something far darker. His hands are stained with the blood of the past, and his influence stretches further than any villager could ever suspect. He has lived for 500 years, shaping history from behind the scenes, erasing those who uncover too much. None have ever come close to challenging him. Until Leonhardt Vale. A warrior sent to kill him. A man with nothing to lose. The first enemy in centuries to truly threaten Salvatore’s existence. As past and present collide, Salvatore is forced to confront the ghosts of his own making. The dead whisper his name. The past refuses to stay buried. And the longer he looks into the abyss, the more it seems to be staring back. Because immortality does not mean invincibility. And the past is never truly dead.

A nameless hunter treads a path shrouded in mystery, where the road is both his curse and his salvation. The land is barren, the sky indifferent, and the only sounds are the echoes of his steps and the whispers of ancient spirits. He is a wanderer, a seeker, but of what—he himself does not know? The Hollow Road is not just a place, but a journey through suffering and silence, where every encounter forces him to confront his past, his purpose, and the darkness that haunts him. Along the way, he meets those who know more than they should—wise souls, broken beings, creatures of legend—all offering cryptic words, yet no answers. The hunter’s true nature is a mystery, his story unfolding one haunting step at a time. He is both the seeker and the sought, and the Hollow Road might be the only path left for him to walk. What will he find at the end? Or will he remain lost forever, wandering in the echoes of his own forgotten name? The journey begins and with it, the unravelling of a truth so deep, it could shatter the heavens themselves… (AI used for the cover photo).

The world is not as it should be. Long ago, reality shattered, splitting into five realms, each severed by the Veil, a boundary of unraveling magic. But the Veil is weakening, its wounds bleeding through, twisting the borders between worlds. Kaelen is one of the few who can cross it without being torn apart—a gift, or perhaps a curse. Exiled from the ruined city of Noxport, haunted by whispers that wear her face, she is hunted by forces that should not remember her name. When the rifts begin to widen, revealing glimpses of a forgotten, impossible city, she is forced to confront the truth: The realms are collapsing. And she may be the reason why. Pursued by Primals, ancient beings who seek dominion over the broken world, Kaelen joins a rebellion of outcasts, each bearing their own secrets, their own scars. Together, they seek the Echo Mirror, an artifact shattered long ago, said to be the key to restoring balance. But the deeper they venture into the decaying realms, the more Kaelen realizes something that makes her question the reality of her own existence. ------------ Hello, dear readers!!

Feedback is definitely appreciated, good or bad, lets make the story good together. I will like to note that the main character isn’t completely ruthless like some of you may want. There’s a lot of stories out there with ruthless, bloodthirsty, cold hearted main characters so if that’s what your interest in then I’m sorry to disappoint you. Release chapters will only be one chapter a day on weekdays. The releases will become more consistent depending on how well the story does.

After a gruelling decade-long war, Gabriel returns home not as a hero, but as a man burdened by the weight of his war deeds. His badge of valour feels less like an honour and more like a price tag—a symbol of the part of him he had given up.

When Gabriel uncovers a buried secret at the heart of the capital, his dreams of retirement shatter. Powerful forces move to silence him, and just when all hope seems lost, a god grants him a fable—an ancient power tied to a mission that intertwines with his thirst for revenge. What should have been a new beginning becomes a path of reckoning. If they won’t let him walk away, then he’ll make sure they regret ever dragging him back in.

The world ended without warning. Orin Kael was just another drifter surviving day-to-day in Ashcroft City when reality itself shattered, plunging him into the Hollow Rift—a nightmarish labyrinth where forgotten myths walk and the weak are devoured. In this fractured realm, humans are nothing more than prey. The Rift grants power to those it deems worthy through the Axiom Protocol, transforming survivors into something more than human. But Orin was chosen by nothing—rejected by the very system that empowers others. Yet when he survives his first encounter with a Hollowborn Stalker, Orin awakens a forbidden trait: the Axiom of Endurance. Unlike others who receive gifts, his power is earned through suffering. Every wound he endures, every hardship he survives, makes him stronger. Now Orin must navigate the ever-shifting laws of the Rift, facing horrors that defy logic, rivals willing to kill for the smallest advantage, and the disturbing truth behind this prison dimension. As he descends deeper, he uncovers a terrifying reality: the Hollow Rift wasn't built to create champions—it was designed to contain something far worse. With no patron, no destiny, and apparently no way back, Orin has only one choice—to seize the Rift with his own hands and become its first true Sovereign, or break the cycle entirely.

In a world where history fades like whispers on the wind, young Tobias stumbles upon a forgotten relic—an ancient blade with a voice from the past. When he meets Siegfried, a warrior bound by fate and trapped within the sword, Tobias unknowingly awakens a legend lost to time. Siegfried reveals that he was once part of the Ten Nameless Oaths, an elite guild forged during the Great Age of Ash, when monstrous Fiends first emerged from the Rift at the heart of the Casderia Waters. But to Tobias, the past is nothing more than myths and forgotten names. He has never heard of the guild, the war, or even the Age of Ash itself. More disturbingly, he sees only a sword where Siegfried stands. The chilling truth soon dawns on Siegfried—he is no longer a man of flesh and blood, but a spirit imprisoned within the blade, cursed to exist beyond time. As Tobias promises to return and learn more, Siegfried is left alone in the dark once again, grappling with the questions that haunt him. Why was he sealed within this weapon? Was this his punishment for failing to protect his king? And if the world has forgotten The Ten Nameless Oaths… what else has been lost to history? With destiny pulling them together, Tobias and Siegfried are about to uncover truths that could reshape the world—and awaken forces that should have remained buried.

Once the new version is released, the first 195 chapters will be free for y'all to read, as a form of compensating all of you loyal readers who have been hanging on with me through this fiasco - and I'm sorry to those who actually liked it, but it's no lie that BAIWARS flopped - so yeah, next time, first 195 chapters will be free, and you'll see the experience I gathered taking shape into something AWESOME!) *START READING FROM AUX. VOLUME* After a cataclysmic event called The Great Calamity, strange rifts began opening all around the world, giving entrance to places we never saw before, full of monstrous beings. We call them Nests. The world, then, gave birth to people with special abilities. Powers that allowed them to fight the beasts inside the Nests.

Kurt Blake is a regular. An unawakened human being. After an act of treason, he dies, but is granted a system upon death, that makes him regress in time to his sixteens, in order for him to rewrite his own history, and take revenge upon his family. What he doesn't know, is that this system is just a single fragment of something more powerful. Something wicked. Something that wants him dead to feed on his newly found powers. But is it the only secret the system holds from Kurt? Are the Nests simply rifts to another dimensions full of monsters? Or is the MC living just a part from a whole story that he's not aware of (yet)?

What secrets lie in the blood of a man who bargained with monsters? Devon Fiore believed he inherited only two things from his mafia grandfather: a scar beneath his jaw and enemies eager to kill him over unpaid debts. Until an impossible act of cruelty—a forest growing in the heart of Brooklyn, trees whispering in dead languages—dragged him into an ancestral game, where entire civilizations are pawns and gods bet in silence. Here, there are no written rules. Only shadows of a forgotten pact binding the Fiores to the Eon Devourers, entities that feed on realities. To survive, Devon must rely on the only skills he knows: manipulate, fight, betray, and unravel the hidden threads weaving the multiverse. But every truth he uncovers brings him closer to a lethal question: Was his grandfather an accomplice… or a sacrifice?
