Ash Prime Steel Path

Nathan, a young man from modern Earth, lived a life marked by abandonment and pain. His father left him early on, and he grew up enduring physical and emotional abuse from his mother, as well as sexual abuse from his stepfather. Betrayal became a recurring theme in his life, as those he trusted and opened up to used him and cast him aside. His struggles with communication left him feeling like an afterthought to his friends, invisible and forgotten in their lives. Each day was a battle, leaving him scarred and yearning for a sense of belonging he had never known. Showing mercy led him to an early, miserable death. In that state—alone, terrified, and utterly exhausted—he wished for a chance to take control of his life, to be freed from the relentless hardships that had defined his existence. Little did he know, his wish would be granted, though not in the way he expected. He would be given a chance, a path to fulfill his deepest desire, but it would not come without a price. The road ahead would be fraught with trials, testing him in ways he could never have imagined. This was not a charity freely given; it was a chance that had to be earned in a new world that showed no kindness to the weak-willed. A chance unlike any ever offered to a living being before. warning "the story is about a male turned into female after reincarnation" , the mc will deal with this issue in a way that i hope will satisfy you. there will beNo yuri and for those who down the road want to ask No NTR. extra tags : romance , witchs , mages , druid powers , warlocks , magus , mage, alchemy, runes, mythical creatures , fictional mythical creatures, cultivation. expending world, gore .

In a world where magic dictates destiny, your worth is determined by two things—Talent and Bloodline. Asvorn has neither. Branded as worthless from birth, he was abandoned by his parents and cast out of his village, left to survive on scraps and endure a life of scorn. For twenty-two years, he lived on the outskirts of society, invisible, unloved. But when starvation and despair push him to his limit, he makes a choice—to leave his wretched life behind and seek a future in the capital of Vaelthorin. Armed with nothing but sheer will and a makeshift weapon, he embarks on a journey riddled with danger, where even the weakest creatures could end his life. Yet, beneath his frail exterior, something stirs—something unseen, something forgotten. Is he truly worthless? Or is there more to his fate than what the world has decided for him? Asvorn’s journey has begun, and with it, the first embers of a fire long thought dead.

In the Ashen Reach, a cursed wasteland of black dunes and ember-storms, Torv “Ash” Kren runs alone, hauling glowing ember-shards in a battered sled. Once a raider, he quit when his crew torched innocence—now he trades magic fuel for water, machete chipped, coat patched, one job from death. An ember-storm cracks his sled—shards spill—when Lysa “Ember” Vey stumbles from the haze, half-dead, clutching a red-hot Core Ember worth a fortune or a grave. Lysa’s an ash-witch—bends shards into fire-blades, hunted by warlord Krax for a 10,000-shard bounty. She offers Torv 2,000 to run her to the Free Drift, rebel camp past the Dune Wall—or leave him dry in the sand. Torv’s gut says ditch her—warlord’s hounds close—but her ember buys time, and his Ash Runner Sense wakes: kills earn miles, power grows. They trek—raiders bleed, storms burn—Torv’s machete sings (+500 miles, Dune Dash), Lysa’s fire cuts deep. Krax’s dogs tear closer—ember-teeth glint—when the Core cracks, whispering: “Free me, claim all.” Truth hits: Lysa’s bounty’s fake—Krax wants the Core that cursed the Reach. Torv’s past crew died for it—he’s bound to the ash. Miles climb (Ash Veil, 1,000)—lungs scar, Lysa’s shard burns her grip. At the Dune Wall, Krax looms—Torv carves, Lysa flares—Core shatters, Reach shakes. Warlord falls—shards rain—but Torv’s ash-coated, Lysa’s bleeding. A new ember glows west—next run calls. Grind, fire, survival—will Torv and Lysa outrun the curse, or burn in it?

I'll conquer it for you!" The Empress said, "The Emperor bullied my darling? Just wait! I'll depose him right away!"

The Weight of Eternity Some men die and are forgotten. Others die and become legends. But what of the man who dies and returns? To the world, his death was a fleeting moment, another spectacle in an empire built on blood and fate. The crowds cheered. His betrayers reveled in their triumph. And the gods, ever silent, did nothing. But he did not stay dead. When Caelum Veyne opened his eyes once more, he found himself staring at a past that should have been lost—a world that had already condemned him. Yet, his hands were unchained. His body was whole. And in his mind, the weight of every wound, every betrayal, every death remained. The world did not change. The same injustices ruled. The same hands that led him to execution reached for him once more. But this time, he would not die a fool. This time, he carried something more powerful than any blade, more dangerous than any noble's decree. Memory. And if the empire thought it could kill him again, it would soon learn: A man who does not fear death is a man who cannot be controlled.
