Resonance

Judge from Hell Verdict: He is righteous Judge of Righteousness Verdict: Kind-hearted Judge of Kindness Verdict: He is charitable Judge of Charity Verdict: Proceed to the final Judge Judge from Heaven Final Verdict: Defendant should be granted reincarnation And that was how Lurky found himself in his current body, possessing the new name Lukas. Lurky was an acolyte in the only Temple of Light that existed in Old City. As one of the renowned acolytes of the Temple, he was to lead a group of believers on a Pilgrimage to Mena, the Pilgrimage Centre of all existing Temples in the world. On their way to Mena, something fiery happened. Fire arrows shot out from distant areas; from above; from sides; targeting the crowd he led. Amidst the crowd, were his dear ones. His mother and sister, but he could save none. Not even the closest believer to him. They all died. And that was how he found himself in this place, an entity he always heard existed. A place that will determine your everlasting happiness or sorrow. So, he was going to be judged. The final verdict of the judgment thrust him back to life, as a reincarnate in another body, Lukas’ body. And not as an acolyte, but a potential Necromancer. Not only that, he was in another city. No longer Old City but New City. Join me to follow Lurky (Lukas) as he travels the New City with only one mission in mind. “Convert Souls and resurrect the Temple of Light.”

In the year 2057 the world as we know had went through a great change when the mysterious 'Mana' had made its arrival to earth. Humans gained supernatural powers, animals became beast like and grew more powerful, while plants gained self-awareness. Humans became more powerful, awakening supernatural abilities of different kind. Becoming something that would later be known as the "Evolved human." It was a new Era where the old laws of the world had fell. And only the strong rules while the weak submitted to their dominance. However, a young boy who goes by the name Carson wasn't as lucky as everyone else. For some reason his body rejected the mana that threatened to dwell within his body leaving him incapable of gaining any powers to survive in this new world. Eventually he was bitten by a mutant insect leaving him on the verge of death. Carson thought that his life was about to come to an unfortunate end. However, fate had other plans for the young boy, as his vision had lost focus, he heard an angelic voice that seemed to resonate deep within his soul. [Ding!] [Congratulations!

The Realm of Dawn, a continent blessed by nature and protected by the Dragon Pantheon; Ra. To the creatures of the night, Ra was the morning sun, capable of scorching the entire universe. But, to humans and demi-humans, who coexisted peacefully, Ra was a father... a guardian... A God. It communed with mortals, protected them, and received their prayers. Until Greed crept in, drawing some humans to a darkness they should have ignored. Power, wealth, women... "You can be like Ra..." they said. "All you have to do is get this to him" And they did... The pulsating hexagon crystal was hidden amongst the corpse of the week-old lamb offered to Ra. And so it happened, Ra was consumed by the evil of the crystal and went on a rampage. Lost in rage, it decimated everyone and everything in its path, turning the land of dawn into a fiery hell hole. The greedy humans who made the offerings were the first to die, but it didn't stop there. In merely an hour hundreds of thousands of humans and demi-beasts had been reduced to smothering ashes. Humans and demi-beasts fled in all directions, confused as to why their God had turned on them. In the world's darkest hours, they came. They called themselves the Visitors, yet they brought chaos and destruction. The world tore open and machines of chaos and destruction invaded the land of dawn, meeting Ra in combat. They say the battle lasted a week, only ending after Ra took his last breath. --- Three centuries later the land of dawn has changed completely. Humanity's saviors didn't just stop at Ra, they also went after demi-beasts. They accused demi-beasts of collaborating with Ra to wipe out the human race. Soon, walls were built around humans, and trees and vegetation were replaced with skyscrapers. The land, which was once a paradise had grown into a mega city of science and technological breakthroughs. Yes, the visitors never left. But they kept their promise, exposing the human race to a power acquired through forbidden means. --- Kael Ardyn was born into the western kingdom of the Empire; Auranos and was opportune to be selected by Ra as his vessel. Under Ra's guidance, Kael is exposed to a world he never existed before. The Path of Mystic Resonance!

What happens when a goddess falls in love with a shifter? Asara; the goddess of love, was punished by her father, the god of thunder. Her crime being falling in love with a mortal shifter Alpha. To pay for her sins she was reborn as Cassandra LeBlanc; a mortal Princess in the magical Kingdom of Speldaria. Her family and kingdom, except her middle sister, shunned her for she was born without any magical abilities and she had no recollections of her true identity. Her betrothed, the powerful mage commander of the Speldaria, was unbothered by her. He wished for someone strong. Cassandra’s life was toppled when she was gifted a warrior slave by the mighty Alpha of Dusartine. She was asked to take part in the Yearly Arena Event by collaborating with the warrior. Cassandra who hated ‘The Arena’ with her very breath. A place where blood flowed like wine and life was cheaper than the very air they breathed didn't understand her purpose in it. On top of that, the mysterious warrior affected her in unimaginable ways. His hypnotic gaze unsettled her. His rare essence overwhelmed her. His muscular bronzed body consumed her with sinful thoughts. Even the dreams of her past life plagued her. When ‘The Arena' began the hidden agendas and underlying truths came to light and Cassandra was played a hand of fate. She was left with no choice but to give in and choose a path. The question would be. How will Cassandra grapple once she learns of the curse placed on her? Will she be able to obtain her magical abilities and stand up to her father? Who will help her along the journey? ~Excerpt~ Then she felt him, all of him. All his ruggedness. The strength of his arm. The softness of his lips. The grip of his hand. The warmth of his breath. Every muscle in her body went taut at the implications of sleeping in a man’s arms. She had never slept in a male’s embrace before. Her whole skin tingled like tiny sparks dancing on the very parts that connected with him. The crevices of her brain had these memories which weren't hers. This touch somehow didn't seem foreign to her. She felt safe in his soothing embrace and didn't wish to push him away and yet she knew this was far from appropriate. Cassandra tried to wriggle out of his hold, his arms seemed to be built from iron for they wouldn't budge. The light garment she had worn had lifted from her milky thigh baring it as his bronzed muscular one was draped on it. And now she could sense something poking her back. Her eyes suddenly expanded from the realisation and Cassandra fully panicked. “Let go!” She voiced out, heavily. Siroos slowly lifted his leg and slackened his hold on her waist so she could shuffle away. He had awakened when she had stiffened for the first time but wished to behold what she would try. With eyes blown wide she stole a glance towards the man who had her wrapped in his embrace like a precious treasure, his treasure. His molten gold eyes had flickered open and there was this softness and want with which he stared at her. Those soft brown curls cascaded over his eyes as he forgot to blink, watching the timeless beauty that she was. Her one-of-a-kind fragrance was a torture to his senses. How he wished to grab her dainty ankle, pull her from it and have her sprawled underneath him. To kiss the very skin that oozed such scent which was driving him insane. Instead, he bent his arm and placed it under his cheek using it like a pillow to watch her with desire-filled eyes. The awkward lull between them prolonged as Cassandra cleared her throat. “Did you have to climb on me to sleep?” “It wasn't intentional but was certainly enticing and definitely won't be the last time.” His deeply hypnotic voice was even more alluring this early in the morning as it resonated all around her. The book cover is mine.

A young man's life takes an unexpected turn when he meets an untimely demise, buried beneath an avalanche.

King Niklaus Mikaelson, a name that resonated with both fear and reverence across the Mythralian Peninsula, was a figure shrouded in a dark, commanding aura. His reputation as the most ruthless and strongest ruler had been etched into the annals of history through countless conquests and acts of sheer dominance. The Kingdom of Emberlyn, his seat of power, had become a formidable force under his iron-fisted rule, expanding relentlessly as he sought to unite the entire peninsula beneath his banner. Niklaus was a man who wielded authority like a weapon, his charisma a tool for bending others to his will. To the world, he was the epitome of power and allure, the man every woman desired and every rival feared.

Battling an unusual form of personality dissociation, Motan admits to feeling the weight of immense pressure bearing down on him. Amidst this turmoil, he finds solace in a virtual escape called "The Realm of Innocence," a game that has become his sanctuary from stress. In the realm where ambiguity reigns, Motan's behavior is unpredictable and impetuous, making him the instigator and mastermind behind myriad events that spiral out of control. Yet, within the sphere of virtue, his resilience and courage shine through, earning him the admiration of many who see him as the epitome of a righteous knight and a fair judge. When dwelling in the balance of absolute neutrality, he adopts a demeanor of modesty and lethargy, mirroring the ordinary essence of every soul. Conversely, in the domain of chaotic evil, he transforms into a figure of madness and cruelty, embodying the very essence of a demon and deceiver, showing kindness only to himself. "Tan Mo is the most extraordinary Bard I have ever encountered, though he is... perplexing, to say the least," comments Countess Leisha, reflecting on his complex nature. "Mor is a man of distinguished integrity! Having met him just once, I am convinced that he is someone one can confidently turn their back to," declares Gwen, the leader of the Rose Rot, acknowledging his noble character. "If you're in search of the ideal neighbor, look no further than Hei Fan," recommends Alchemist Luna, suggesting his suitability for companionship. Yet, amidst these varied testimonies, a warning resonates, "Don't talk about that man!" indicating a mysterious, perhaps darker aspect of his persona that remains unexplored.

The dungeon was so silent that the sound of his breathing echoed back to him like a faint resonance. The cold walls were adorned with mysterious engravings, illuminated by the flickering tongues of faint blue flames. His eyes held a dim glow, his body weakened by torture, yet the spark of defiance within him remained unyielding. Suddenly, a faint voice broke the silence: "A miserable place to die, isn't it?" Azar remained silent, but a slight shiver coursed through his body. The voice wasn’t coming from outside—it came from within.

The world of Earth is a desolate, future version of the planet, ravaged by centuries of conflict, environmental collapse, and unchecked technological advancement. After the Great Fragmentation, humanity discovered the hidden power of Essentia, a primordial energy that resonates with the Auras radiated by all living beings. Essentia, once buried deep beneath the Earth's surface, now flows freely through the air and the land, influencing every creature’s existence. The Auras of individuals reflect their connection to Essentia—stronger Auras grant greater control over the energy, while weaker Auras leave their bearers vulnerable. Humanity, once on the brink of extinction due to nuclear wars, pandemics, and environmental destruction, began to harness this power, using it to rebuild civilizations. Yet, the Earth had changed. As cities rose and societies evolved, so too did the creatures of the world. Mutated beasts, once ordinary animals, gained terrifying powers by fusing their Auras with Essentia, creating terrifying creatures that roam the wastelands, seeking to destroy or dominate humanity. A thousand years after the Great Fragmentation, humanity stands at a fragile precipice. While some have rebuilt advanced societies within mega-cities protected by powerful Aura shields, others live in the wilds, fighting for survival against creatures whose Auras dwarf those of the human race. Deep beneath the ruins of Earth lies the Essentia Core, the source of all Essentia. It is said that whoever reaches the Core will have the power to reshape Earth’s future—restoring the planet or annihilating all life within it. Many have sought the Core, including rogue factions, corrupted warlords, and savage beasts, but none have returned. Main Protagonist: A 16-year-old boy named Orion Ardyn lives in a small outpost on the outskirts of the last remaining human metropolis, Neos City. Orion was born with a rare, dormant Aura, deemed weak by society's standards. As a result, he is disregarded and scorned by others, nicknamed "The Whisper". However, during a raid by mutated beasts, Orion’s dormant Aura awakens unexpectedly when he comes into contact with a strange artifact—the Essentia Shard—a relic of the ancient world. His Aura possesses a unique power: the ability to absorb and evolve by resonating with the Auras of others, a gift that may hold the key to the future of humanity.

Wishes are subjective, and those who are reborn are nothing but hypocrites unworthy of the first. Words crumble to ashes, and memories of their origins resonate within fractured bodies. Amid a dream that is no mere illusion but a radiant illumination, shadows grow deeper, and the truth reveals itself, a child’s dream begins. I woke up in a world of uncertainty, a realm twisted and cruel, where swords clash, blood stains the ground, and monstrous beasts stalk the living. Flying ships drift above boundless chains that shackle the sky, while wars rage endlessly with weapons both ancient and unknown. It’s a place where beauty and terror coexist, where joy flickers like a fragile flame before being consumed by shadow. I am Celm, a man whose memories feel like shards of glass, fractured, distant, and painful. I don’t know who I truly am or why this world feels both alien and hauntingly familiar. The forsaken lands around me pulse with disasters and despair, as people endure a cycle of torment they cannot escape. And yet, hidden within this chaos lies a haunting beauty, a world that shifts and bends under the weight of forgotten truths. In this labyrinth of suffering and wonder, whispers of the Forsaken World linger, a place where the truth is absolute, where the laws of other realms erode, and where even gods lose their divinity. Every step I take feels like a descent into something deeper, a dream interwoven with reality and riddled with secrets. What is my place in this nightmare? What lies at the heart of a dream so vivid it burns brighter than light itself? I don’t know where the path leads, but I do know one thing: the truth, however unbearable, cannot be avoided forever.

Captivated by these hauntingly beautiful portrayals, Lyra begins to question the sterile, disconnected world he has left behind. His fellow team members notice his growing attachment to the artifact and its evocative memories. Drawn in by the allure of this lost civilization, they engage in deep discussions about the meaning of profound feeling—love and loss. Through these exchanges, Lyra and his team embark on a transformative journey of introspection, grappling with the existential emptiness that has seeped into their technologically advanced society. With every new memory, the weight of their reality presses down on Lyra. He faces a pivotal choice: should he return to the cold and alienating world of human achievement, where genuine connection feels nearly impossible? Or should he embrace the emotional resonance he has discovered on Elysium, possibly seeking a new, more meaningful existence among the stars, inspired by the love and longing of those who came before him? This struggle lies at the heart of Lyra’s journey—a quest not only for exploration in the vast universe but also for rediscovering what it truly means to be human. As the echoes of the past linger in his heart and mind, he must choose a path that will define his identity and the legacy he wishes to leave behind.

Amidst the eerie silence of an unfamiliar hall, a cacophony of confused voices rose, mingling in a chorus of bewilderment. "Where are we?" "What happened?" "I thought I died!" Each utterance hung in the air, a testament to the collective disbelief gripping the room. As the haze of confusion lifted, disjointed memories surfaced, fragments of lives cut short by tragedy. "I remember... I was stabbed..." ventured one voice, echoed by another's affirmation of a similar fate. "I... I died in a plane crash," muttered a third, only to be met with a stunned agreement from a fellow survivor. Amidst the chaos of bewildered voices, one man stood apart, his expression a mask of contemplation amidst the turmoil. As his companions recounted their brushes with death, his mind churned with questions, each more confounding than the last. "I got shot... I remember it vividly," he murmured to himself, his voice barely audible above the din. "So how am I still here?" The enigma of their shared resurrection gnawed at him, compelling him to seek answers in the depths of his memories. With each revelation of a paired demise—a male and female, bound by the same tragic fate—a flicker of recognition ignited within him. "This... this seems familiar," he mused, the pieces of a puzzle slowly coalescing in his mind. But the picture remained incomplete, obscured by the fog of uncertainty that shrouded their surroundings. As the words "pairs, pairs, pairs" echoed in his mind like a cryptic mantra, a sudden realization struck him with the force of a revelation. "It can't be... don't tell me..." he whispered, his voice trembling with disbelief. With a sense of urgency, he began to scan his surroundings, searching for any sign or clue that could confirm his suspicions. Then, as if guided by an unseen force, his gaze shifted upwards, and there, bathed in an ethereal light, stood an angelic figure with golden apparel, its gaze fixed upon him with a warm smile. The sight took his breath away, filling him with a mixture of awe and trepidation. The man's heart raced as faced a real angel, his mind struggling to comprehend the surreal encounter unfolding before him. The angel's words, spoken with an air of amusement, only deepened the enigma shrouding their meeting. "I never expected anyone to notice me," the angel remarked, a hint of playfulness in its voice. "I was concealing my presence to let everyone fully calm down, but to think someone noticed me. Just who are you?" Ethan's disbelief and confusion intensified at the angel's question. "Eh... Ethan Rivers," he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. As Aurelia, the angel, finally revealed himself to the bewildered assembly, a hush fell over the room, each soul drawn in by his radiant presence and commanding aura. Ethan's gaze lingered on Aurelia. "Greetings, lost souls," Aurelia declared, his voice resonating with a majestic power that seemed to fill the very air around them. "I am Aurelia, and I shall be your guide to your new life." As Aurelia extended his arms in a gesture of welcome, Ethan felt a surge of rage and hesitation, "This it bad, really bad."

The truth is a mirage that conceals the deep-seated pain of betrayal, misunderstanding, and existence in a dominion where prejudice masquerades as logic.

Stepping closer he lifted my chin asking again, "do you still choose otherwise Princess?" I gulped, knowing Fang would understand very well what was on my mind, all my lies would be useless in front of how well he knew every nook and cranny of my brain. Mustering all the strength inside me I whispered, diverting my eyes, answering exactly what he didn't want to hear right now, "Yes!" A vicious smirk played on his face as he lifted me by my collar, while I tip-toed barely able to find the ground, trying to match his towering height. "I don't like it when someone touches what is mine," he leaned closer, his tall stature hovering over me just inches from my face and his infuriated breath crawling on my soft skin, "and you better know that your entirety belongs to only me!" ---- All credits of the cover to belong to its owner ---- Discord: https://discord.gg/ZhjZ9aHEZ6
