“Those who look are blind and those whose eyes shut close see” It is said that the world is drawn of ink and blood, and its sightless populace are condemned in eternal darkness, but its ”creator,” the Authors granted them discriminative gift, separating THE WITNESS those who peeked, and the BLINDS the ones who failed to grasp sight A Dark Fantasy Novel In a fractured world where Reality becomes the servant of Imagination, and the truth is dictated by the lies of those in the pinnacle of Life, those who cannot envision the unseen are cursed to live blind—trapped in a lie crafted by others.

Because in this world, reality is a script. And someone has already written his end.

Airi was the first ever baby born with PGAD, which was worse than a curse for those who cared about her. She grew up feeling arousal constantly, but she never knew what to do with it. Then, she accidentally clicked a link on her phone, which took her to a hentai manga about a certain magical girl named Aurora. It didn't take long until Airi fell in love with the manga, and most importantly, her obsession with Aurora and corruption started. Airi never felt this aroused as when she was reading the Corruption hentai. For her whole life, she thought that everyone felt the same way she did. It was always kept from her that she was born with PGAD. For the first time in her life, Airi couldn't stand the constant feeling of arousal because of how intense it was after seeing Aurora give in to darkness. Airi started masturbating every day, then started masturbating a few times every day, and then she started masturbating constantly. Her lust slowly started ripping her life apart. She started losing control, masturbating in public places, in the school bathroom, and even in the classroom. She never felt any remorse after doing those things to herself and the ones who loved her. She didn't become like that when she grew up - She was always like that. One night, she was reading the hentai manga that started everything. There was a new chapter. She started reading. Deep inside, she knew that something big was about to come. And then, the once-magical girl, now the one corrupting magical girl, Aurora, finally appeared. She corrupted the new magical girls, and Airi couldn't help but be aroused, just like always. It was the nail in the coffin. Airi masturbated for the whole night and morning until her body gave up. She had a cardiac arrest and passed away in the middle of a masturbation session.

Create a bill that punishes corrupt officials with death!" But then they say: "Killing is against the law. They're human too, and have a right to live!" Damn those so-called Human Rights activists. Anyone running for office should serve the people, not exploit them. And yet, time and again— They hunger for power. They bend the laws. They steal the people’s taxes. I was nothing but a small internet café owner, struggling to pay bills. But my life changed when I stumbled upon someone in a dark web forum. A shadow with a code name, who taught me everything—from basic programming to breaching secure national servers. I became an anonymous whistleblower. Exposed corrupt politicians. Flooded social media with undeniable proof. But one night, I made a mistake. I forgot to activate my VPN. Forgot to scramble my signal. And they came. Secret agents. Black ops. They didn’t arrest me. They executed me. I thought that was the end. But fate had other plans. I woke up… not on Earth… …in a world ruled by mana and aura. A world where kingdoms rise and fall by the strength of their swordsmen and mages… …where corruption bleeds through nobility like poison in wine. And this time, I won’t make the same mistake. This time, I’ll burn their world from the inside out.

[WARNING: SEXUAL VIOLENCE: RAPE, TORTURE, MURDER] Male MC| No-Harem| No Yuri| No Yaoi| No NTR ____________________ ____________________ “…Pathetic.” “Look at you. Crawling. Bleeding. Powerless.” “Same damn excuses, just like back then.” “Still so ready to give up.” “Those bullshit feelings made you weak.” “Have you forgotten your vow?” “The promise you swore in blood.” “If you're really him... then stand.” “Show them who you are.” “Rise—” “Let the darkness in once again.” --- In the quiet town of Velhart, Kael is mocked as the weakest adventurer. No one suspects the truth. Behind tired eyes and a dull smile lies a man with a past soaked in blood — a nightmare no one could survive and stay sane. An assassin who walked through hell itself. Now, he hides behind a smile in a town that scorns him. But he hasn’t changed completely. He still remembers. He still hunts. And in the silence, evil men still die. These days, he only seeks peace… and maybe, one day, love. But fate wasn't so kind. Forced into an arranged marriage with Seraphina, the cold and commanding Captain of the Knight Order, Kael expected nothing — and got even less. She despised him. Saw him as worthless. But her hatred… didn’t break him. It changed him. Not with kindness. Not with warmth. But through her rejection, her silence, her presence — she unknowingly gave him a reason to stay. After their marriage, he barely spoke. Silent. Distant. But now… he enjoys pushing her buttons. Teasing her with lazy smiles and harmless jests. Never realizing when the lines between amusement and affection began to blur. And for the first time in his life… Kael wanted something more. A peaceful life. A family. A future without blades. But peace doesn’t mean mercy. Not for people like him. Because the world never forgets monsters. But when Seraphina finally uncovers the truth — when she realizes the man she vowed to arrest is the same one she’s come to care for — what will she choose? Her unshakable duty… Or the husband she was never meant to love? And when swords are drawn and the final truth is laid bare — will love be enough to bridge the chasm between an assassin’s sins and a knight’s sacred oath? Now, as shadows stir and blood calls to blood, the past claws its way back from the grave. The man he tried to leave behind — the legend spoken only in fear — is awakening once again. Because the darkness never lets go. --- A/N: Don’t expect everything right away. This is a slow build — Volume 01 will be a mix of their complex relationship and a good number of fights. Assassination? Obviously. If you're patient, the fall… and the rise… will be worth it. The story takes place three years after their marriage. I also want to make it clear that MC isn't overpowered yet. He's strong, but there are still many characters who are stronger than him. It will take time before he truly becomes overpowered. Also, your feedback means a lot as this is my first book. It tells me someone’s actually reading. And that alone keeps me going. So please, don’t hold back—leave a comment and share your thoughts. Thank you. ____________________ ____________________ Update Schedule: Every Week 11:00 PM GMT (+6) (Saturday) 01:00 AM GMT (+8) (Sunday) Per Chapter Length: 1300-6000 words.

Excerpt “You’re playing a dangerous game,” Gareth said, voice low, his towering frame just inches from mine. “I didn’t come here to play,” I shot back, even as my heart pounded. “But you should be asking Elliot why he keeps showing up at my door. I’m not the one chasing ghosts.” His eyes darkened, his gaze dropping to my lips. “He’s not the only one haunted by you.” I froze. I should have walked away. Instead, I whispered, “Then why do you look at me like you want to hate me and kiss me at the same time?” He didn’t answer. But his silence spoke louder than any lie.

One day, his office was raided by city officials following allegations of tax evasion. Shocked by the accusation, Ryan was confident he had been paying taxes annually through checks handed to his secretary. His secretary, equally stunned, convinced Ryan that foul play was at hand. Despite finding no evidence of wrongdoing during the raid, the officials insisted on shutting down Ryan's business for further investigation.
