Bears Can Climb Trees

There is a saying: you yourself pave the path of your life. But it isn't entirely true, to be honest. You may pave the path, but judging its quality, improving its design, and supporting your back while you pave the path—there are just many variables playing their roles. As a human, what do we need most? Money? Power? Popularity? Or freedom? Of course, many would choose any of the four; at least it's a rational choice in this era. But what if the world falls into chaos, money becomes worthless, power stagnates, no one cares about popularity, and there isn't anything called freedom? Now, as a human, what do we need most at such a time? .... Don't know? It's Emotional Support. It's simply not as important in peaceful times, but where survival causes betrayal and betrayal leads to death, the struggle to live for another day remains the priority. Only one thing can protect someone from losing their mind: emotional support. A family supports oneself emotionally, but what if there isn't one? Then it could be one's life partner whose duty is to support each other emotionally. But what if one needs more emotional support in the chaotic era where death looms over the head? Indeed, one needs more partners to provide more emotional support. People say polygamy is disgusting, unrightful for a woman who has to share her husband. One should always have a single partner in their whole life. But history is evident: those who reigned supreme had a Harem—Emperors, Kings, and even higher-ranking nobles. The strongest ones possess the ability to love more than one person. Unlike the commoners or beggars who don't have the ability to take care of more than one person, making their helplessness of not having a harem their ideology to hate those who had them. This is the journey of an Emperor, a king, or the supreme one, who climbs up to the top of the tower with his harem. Side characters, Mobs, will keep blabbering that he is wrong to have a harem, but it's the privilege of those who are the strongest...

"Gordon! Why are you late? The awakening ceremony is right now!" Jessica said urgently when she saw Gordon come through the doors of the awakening center. Shrugging Gordon didn't say anything. The last thing in the world that he wanted to do was tell this beautiful girl that he had been tripped and beaten on the way to school today. It was times like this that he wished that he bruised more easily. Then maybe he could get some attention. But this thought was fleeting in his mind. Gordon actually preferred to deal with his problems in his own way. And awakening to become a beast tamer and maybe even have his own talent would be the first step. Once he had a powerful beast the bullies wouldn't dare pick on him. "Come on, let's get in line." Jessica whispered to Gordon when she realized that he wasn't going to tell her what had happened. Together they went to the back of the arena type auditorium to wait for their turn to awaken. They had been friends since childhood and had been there for each other through thick and thin. Jessica had been the only friend that stuck with him despite all of his quirks. Slowly the line inched forward. Occasionally some people in their class would cheer if in addition to becoming a beast master a student also awakened a talent.

We were a peaceful people living in harmony with nature in the vast lands of Lyréanor. This world, if I had to sum it up in a few short sentences, was peaceful, joyful and painless, but this peace didn't last and has been cut short ever since our people were defeated by the black elves, ancient peoples, even more ancient than this world. It is said that they arrived in Lyréanor by boat and since their arrival, chaos has been unleashed. Proud of their obscure power, drawn from dark rituals, they have raised gigantic armies of monsters whose name is synonymous with terror: "Obscurus". They went on the rampage, and everywhere they went the grass didn't grow back, life died and disintegrated. Seven, there were seven of them. The seven dark elves known as the Lords of the Apocalypse. A single gesture from them was enough to strike us all down, a single gesture from one of them was enough to decimate us in blood and terror. We retreated to the last of our strongholds, once known as Fotiya (the last rampart), where our final battle would take place, where our story was to end, help arrived. A call, a voice resonated within each of us, calling us. We then discovered, inside our last bastion, a passage, a hidden door, built by our ancestors and forgotten by all for a long time. However, our hopes were quickly dashed... Until one day : [*Ding* System Activation]

In The Shadows' Burden: The one Who Bears All, the story follows Umbra, an enigmatic and immensely powerful god known for his boundless love and unshakable will. As the strongest among the gods, Umbra stands apart, choosing not to wield his power for harm, which earns him the deep love and loyalty of the people. This adoration, combined with the unwavering support of the Shadows—his devoted followers—fuels the envy and resentment of other gods who feel threatened by his unbreakable will. Unable to tarnish Umbra's character directly, these jealous gods conspire to alter time itself, manipulating both past and future events to rewrite the truth of who Umbra truly is. They influence the very narration of his story, casting doubt on what is real and what is fabricated. As part of their scheme, they force Umbra into a relentless cycle of reincarnation, subjecting him to endless forms of suffering before each rebirth. Each life brings its own torment, compelling him to bear the weight of existence in all its forms. As we travel through Umbra's lives with him, we will encounter an array of overpowered characters, each with their own unique abilities and motivations. The veil of deception slowly lifts, revealing hidden truths and a complex past shaped by betrayal, love, and resilience. Ultimately, The Shadows' Burden becomes a powerful exploration of faith, truth, and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery amid a universe determined to hide it.
