Shadow Ascendant: Chronicles of the Eternal Villain

In a world dominated by the relentless pursuit of cultivation and power, Alex, the scorned heir of a fallen noble family, is born with a dark fate—cursed to remain weak and unloved. Disowned and exiled into the treacherous wilderness, he faces a childhood marred by betrayal, conflict, and suffering. Yet, beneath his frail exterior lies an indomitable spirit fueled by a thirst for vengeance. Alex’s destiny takes a drastic turn when he stumbles upon an ancient artifact hidden within a mystical space, housing the soul of a long-forgotten demonic overlord. This encounter ignites a profound metamorphosis, granting him forbidden cultivation techniques, the power to manipulate blood, and access to long-lost abilities like soul manipulation and time control. As he embarks on his journey to power, Alex endures excruciating trials of body tempering, deceptive strategies using clones, and the mastery of spatial and time magic. Ruthlessly seizing control over magical beasts and mercenaries, he manipulates entire sects through mind control and cunning deception. His rise through a society built on strength is meteoric, and he hides his true abilities behind multiple facades, becoming both feared and reviled. Haunted by the betrayals of his past, Alex’s ruthless decisions stem from deep-seated resentment. Yet, as prophecy intertwines with his journey, he discovers the true role he plays in shaping the world’s fate. As he battles immortal cultivators and confronts tribal societies, Alex forges a path toward godhood. With timelines converging and secrets of his past life unveiled, Alex prepares for an inevitable war, aspiring not just to ascend beyond mortality but to rewrite the very fabric of existence. Betrayals, cultivation wars, and heavenly clashes await as he transitions from a powerless outcast to an eternal villain, feared across realms. In his quest for dominion over the world and beyond, every step in Alex's cultivation journey is marked by cruelty, schemes, and bloodshed.

DARK PSYCHOLOGICAL ROMANTIC THRILLER  ......... The feeling of being trapped in closed space is terrifying however to be trapped in one's own body is a nightmare. Their consciences are both filled with remorse and shame, drowning them in misery. When an ex soldier with dark history gets accosted by the Predator in Paradise, she suppresses her weaknesses to be a survivor. Humanity Fear Remorse Principles He was a victim, escalating into an unstable parasite with an unsatiated craving for blood and pain. ~An evil is not born ~Agony molds you ~Numbs your feelings A hardcore evil is born as one suffers where redemption and retribution is all that he can desire... Some sins can be irreversible Will he lose his chance to atone for his crimes and quench his dolour? She is cynical and despises having episodes of emotional meltdown. She became familiar with the slow and overwhelming pain when there is no closure. She is his perfect match. She drives him toward insanity. Beautifully broken, both having scars staining the soul.  Pain soothes agony. ......... His pov I believe my heart has been devoid of love and affection since then. Not a single soul knew about my miserable life, the pathetic life of this lone wolf, the Ive Michaelson who brags around with his immense power and inhumane heart. The aftermath of that horrible incident was me lying on that cold floor. I dragged my butterfly knife to my wrist. I carved vertical lines which meant I'd bled faster and die faster. People who cut horizontally across the wrists in light lines never really wanted to die subconsciously. They fear death. But I knew better. I meant business. I had cut a deeper slash than last time. But I can't die yet. I grabbed my arms attempting to stop the flow. I wrapped my handkerchief around it. But it won't hurt me to try. Maybe I'll succeed if it's my lucky day. ......... Her pov No human is deemed worthy for life in his eyes. He wet his lips and tilted his head to the side like a complete psychopath, lowering his head a bit. He was gawking at me with those amber eyes turned slightly red. He smiled. Inhumane. I felt fear. Cold fear. The same nauseated feeling came back as he kept that smile while the second tear left his eye. Pain and only pain was visible in them. "That's why you are special. Now I must return this favour askim" he whispered. That craziness surfacing little by little in his smile made it hard for me to breathe. He was sick. ......... I believe in liberal and non sexist views which are portrayed in this book. The male leads can be really fucked up & intrigue characters. The female leads are equally strong and evil. Each character has his own perspective & emotional experiences which mould him into the kind of individual he is & explain the reasons for his particular behaviors. CONTENT AND/OR TRIGGER WARNING: Scenes of drug use, sexual abuse, harassment, self harm, violence & mature language which may be triggering for some readers. I don't plagiarize others otherwise it's purely coincidental.
