“Evil God of the Universe, You are in every space and time. Present in every dimension of reality and govern the darkness of our world. Oh, almighty Atticus! Hear our plea and grant us your presence tonight, awaken my Lord!” The rain had completely stopped and the strong gale had subsided into the fading raindrops. The night had turned eerily silent and only the sizzling and cackling of the fire entered their ears. Suddenly, they all felt like floating from their feet despite setting foot on the watery, hard ground, as if they were traversing into space. The darkness of the night gradually turned darker, enveloping them, morphing into everyone, like a void eating them slowly. Sequentially, their breathing turned oddly slower. Despite exaggeratedly inhaling air to breathe, it was to no avail, as if a higher entity was limiting them from breathing. Nolan felt his throat and tried to open his mouth to gasp more air but failed. Everyone but him was in a state of indignation and panic as they struggled to breathe to fill their lungs with air. Nolan tried to calm his heart. He closed his eyes and stopped inhaling air in pure panic, instead, he put his heartbeat and breathing into a rhythm. It was hard at first, but after a minute, he found his breathing gradually went stable. His whole being was in pure anticipation of what was going to happen next. After a couple more minutes, the storm completely subsided, the night turned to normal. Nolan remained standing, taking in his surroundings with his eyes closed. Everything turned silent. The eerie atmosphere and the crackling of the fire from the hay figure didn’t even enter his ears. Nolan waited for a couple more minutes, his breathing turning normal. He was reluctant to open his eyes, afraid he might ruin their ritual. “It’s alright now, Young Master. You can open your eyes now.” Nolan’s breathing hitched. He jolted on his feet as he fluttered his eyes open. “Atticus? W-why are you here?” The butler, standing in front of him, a raincoat hung on his arms, smiled. “I am everywhere, Young Master, in order to best serve you.” **** Atticus, a demi-god from the underworld, was cast out of his parents from their realm and was thrown into the human world. The reason? He hadn't given them grandchildren yet.

Raised in a world filled with secrets, she doesn’t know that she’s destined for far more than ordinary. When a family of vampires—led by the enigmatic Justin—moves into town, everything she thought she knew about herself begins to unravel. Drawn to Justin by a magnetic pull she can’t explain, Sarah finds herself caught in a web of magic, dark family secrets, and hidden truths about her own heritage. As their slow-burn romance intensifies, she discovers she is not just human—she is fae, her memories altered by a warlock intent on controlling her power. And the family who killed her parents? They believed her family was a threat to the fae courts. When Sarah begins to experience vivid memories of her past, she uncovers shocking truths about her parents’ deaths and the dark forces that have been shaping her life from the shadows. The more she learns, the more she’s forced to confront the true cost of her power—and the dangerous, inevitable path that awaits her. With the Courts closing in and an unrelenting destiny pushing her toward a fate she never chose, Sarah must decide whether to embrace the darkness within her or fight to preserve the humanity she has left. But with every choice, the stakes grow higher, and the line between love and betrayal, light and dark, begins to blur. Will Sarah succumb to the magic that calls to her, or will she defy the Courts and the powers that seek to control her?

After the hard struggle of a post-80s Shen Feiyang, he met with a tragic car accident in his fifties. When he again opened his eyes, he did not see the white walls of a hospital, nor had he arrived at the netherworld.

Marcus Evans was the epitome of an ordinary guy—stuck in a dead-end job, addicted to reading webnovels for a taste of excitement, and completely invisible in the grand scheme of life. His greatest joy was escaping into the pages of Decade Long Crusade, a sprawling epic where the hero, Ash Braker, rises from weakness to ultimate power in a world of magic, technology, and danger. But when Marcus wakes up one day in a body that isn’t his, in a world that feels disturbingly familiar, he quickly realizes the impossible: he’s been transmigrated into the Decade Long Crusade universe. However, there’s a catch. He’s not the hero, nor even a notable character. He’s an unknown extra, an expendable background figure doomed to die without making a mark on the story. To survive in a world where extras are crushed underfoot by stronger powers, Marcus knows he can’t play the game like a hero. The only way to protect himself is to manipulate the plot, ensure Ash Braker’s rise to power, and play the part of the ruthless villain who pulls the strings from the shadows. As the world of cultivation, magic, and futuristic technology threatens to swallow him whole, Marcus must make hard decisions, form dangerous alliances, and betray those who stand in his way. Because in this world, it’s better to be the villain than to die forgotten.

Synopsis: 'The Unknown" The city was a tapestry of ancient rivalries, woven with threads of power and magic. In its heart beat the pulse of two dynasties, the Dawn Kingdom and the Night Kingdom, locked in an eternal dance of light and darkness. But beneath the fade of splendor lay a sinister truth-a conspiracy that would shake the foundations of both realms. One fateful night, the air crackled with treachery as the forces of evil descended upon the unsuspecting city. In a cruel twist of fate, the good witches of the Dawn Kingdom fell victim to a malevolent plot, their lives snuffed out in a whirlwind of betrayal. Among the fallen was Eithan, heir to the throne, his dreams of a united kingdom shattered in an instant. Yet, amidst the chaos, a glimmer of hope remained-Nisa, his beloved, spared from the clutches of death by some twist of fortune. Together, they were laid to rest in a remote island sanctuary, a silent testament to the tragedy that had befallen them. But time, it seemed, was not content to let their story end there. Thirty years passed like shadows in the night, until one fateful evening, when Nisa felt the stirrings of destiny calling her name. Driven by a restless longing, she ventured beyond the confines of her solitude, seeking solace in the mundane pleasures of the mortal world. As the rain poured down in sheets, washing away the sins of the past, Nisa found herself drawn to a forgotten corner of the city-a place where memories lay dormant, waiting to be awakened. And then, like a bolt from the blue, fate intervened. A chain, ethereal and glowing with otherworldly light, materialized before her eyes, beckoning her closer with its silent plea for aid. With trembling hands, Nisa reached out, her fingers closing around the cool metal links. And in that moment, she heard it-a voice, soft and haunting, whispering words of warning and redemption. Terrified yet resolute, Nisa stood at the crossroads of destiny, her heart torn between love and duty. For she knew that whatever path she chose, the consequences would be dire, the sacrifices profound. But as the seconds slipped away like grains of sand in an hourglass, Nisa knew that she could no longer afford to hesitate. With a steely resolve, she made her choice, the chain glowing brighter with each passing heartbeat-a beacon of hope in a world consumed by darkness .And so, with the weight of centuries upon her shoulders, Nisa took her first step into the unknown, her fate intertwined with that of her beloved Eithan, in a tale of revenge, mystery, and undying love.
