Bane Breakdown

Ahn Kyunghee wanted nothing more than to move on from a stigmatizing past as a druggie’s daughter. However, fate had other things in store. A special person from her past reappears and gives her a whole new meaning to perseverance, love and loyalty. Despite the ten year gap, she had once again found her first love; only now he was no longer the teenager brimming with righteous determination she once knew. Now, he was a member of the dangerous Yakuza—a man to be feared and revered, but a man who would do anything to give her the protection she never had, regardless of right or wrong. In her memory, he would forever be the boy who befriended and held her hand whilst everyone else ostracized her. Then there was the hotheaded detective who was the bane of her existence, only to realize that she meant more to him than he could ever mean to her. Light and dark didn’t mix. Just like tigers and dragons didn’t co-exist.

In a modern, urban world where the celestial and infernal realms secretly shape mortal existence, Asuriel has always considered herself an ordinary woman with a passion for mixing drinks... and perhaps a bit superstitious. But as her twenty-fifth birthday approaches, everything changes. Powerful abilities hidden deep beneath the surface since childhood finally begin to burst through, revealing her cursed heritage – which marks her as both a miracle and an abomination. Unbeknownst to both parties, a beastly devil named Vaerion Sinclair—the charismatic and ruthless CEO of one of the largest business conglomerates—has been tied to her since she was young by her strange abilities. Now, having been awoken, the bond they share is activated – both physically and mentally. Being forced to share dreams and stay within 10 feet of a stranger 24/7 is troublesome, to say the least. As these new, unbridled powers threaten to tear her apart, she discovers that, if she wants to survive, she has to unravel the mystery of her origins and the prophecy tied to her bloodline. Her body has turned into a ticking time bomb. Alongside Vaerion, who is obligated to help out of the selfish desire to preserve his own life, the pair uncovers threads of lies, betrayal, and forbidden love that could ignite a war between the celestial and infernal realms. —— Not even ten minutes ago, Asuriel had been shivering on the living room floor, in tears out of fear of her deteriorating body. When Vaerion told her he knew what would make her feel better, she hadn’t expected this. “A motorcycle ride? Seriously?” Asuriel asked incredulously. “How’s this supposed to help?” “Are you scared?” Vaerion ignored her confusion and answered her with a question of his own, his deep voice muffled slightly by the helmet he wore. Asuriel sniffled, swallowing the remnants of her emotional breakdown. In contradiction to the nervousness she felt boiling in her stomach, she scoffed, “Of course not.” “A shame,” the devil chuckled, a hint of mischief in his tone. “Let’s fix that.” “Wh-” Before Asuriel could ask what he meant, the motorcycle’s engine roared to life, and inertia sent her body backward. She instinctively jumped forward and tightened her grip on the man’s waist. If only she could see the victorious smirk that her action elicited from Vaerion. The sounds of the bike reverberated deep in her chest, making a home in her ribcage. The pair flew through the night, passing cars and buildings so quickly that it all looked like multicolored streaks of light rushing by. Her heartbeat soared as adrenaline and fear filled her bloodstream. As they rode out of the city, Vaerion spoke to her through their mind-link, his tone possessive, “Your fear is mine to evoke. Don’t you dare cry again – unless I’m the one to make you.” —— My Inkbound Devil gives you a slice of all your favorite tropes: urban, fantasy romance with a devil-beast CEO and dark, heavy atmosphere… with R18 smut as icing on the cake.~ Join us on this adventure, and support the novel if you enjoy it!

{Disclaimer: The women in this book are highly dysfunctional and violent. If you are not a fan of Tsudere's and Yandere's, this might not be your cup of tea, and the MC is an asshole.} Bane Takashi is a criminal with a knack for getting into trouble—big trouble. After one too many bad choices and a whole lot of theft, he’s got half the world gunning for him. Just when things seem bleak, a mysterious transparent blue woman shows up claiming she's an AI from the future, sent to stop the world from going down the drain. Her solution? Bane has to let his current body die so he can jump into a game world, ten years before it even launches. When Bane wakes up in the game, he’s in the body of a 5-year-old, but with all his memories still intact. He's stuck on an island with the Village of Heroes at its heart. It's here that Bane starts mastering every type of magic, mysticism, and even some wild stuff like witchcraft and cultivation, all to gear up for the craziness that is Dominion Online. Things get even more chaotic when Bane meets a fiery woman who seems to have it out for him. But before he can even figure out what’s happening, she’s already planning their wedding! So now, Bane—an immortal human—and his equally immortal and chaotic elf wife are on a wild ride to save the world(s) from these big bads known as the Supreme Ones. His life might not be so bad if she was the only one, but his overwhelming personality ends up pulling a few more dysfunctional women into the mess. It’s a crazy, toxic, and chaotic adventure, and just because Bane’s being called a hero now doesn’t mean he’s leaving his criminal past behind. Discord: https://discord.gg/7ZDTTCq99Z

I was faced with a heartbreaking loss that would put my resilience to the test in the rapidly changing world of cryptocurrencies, where fortunes can be earned and destroyed in an instant. It all started with a straightforward error, a brief breakdown in judgment that would eventually send me down a path of hopelessness and doubt. For years, I had been a fervent cryptocurrency enthusiast, building a sizeable portfolio while cautiously navigating the erratic market. My investments had been increasing consistently, and I had faith in my capacity to handle the challenges presented by this digital environment. That assurance was dashed, though, as I lost an incredible 54,000 in a matter of seconds. The details of how it happened are still a blur, but the impact was immediate and overwhelming. I found myself spiraling into a state of panic and despair, unsure of where to turn or how to recover from such a devastating blow. The loss of a lifetime's worth of savings was a crushing blow, and I felt utterly powerless in the face of it. As I grappled with the emotional and financial turmoil, I knew that I couldn't simply give up. I had to find a way to regain control of the situation and reclaim what was rightfully mine. That's when I stumbled upon FUNDS RECLAIMER COMPANY, a team of cryptocurrency recovery experts who promised to help me navigate the treacherous waters of the digital asset world. I reached out to them despite my initial doubts, trying to find some help. I was surprised to find that they paid close attention to my narrative and could relate to the anguish and annoyance I was feeling. They presented a thorough plan of action and gave me their word that they have the skills and knowledge to assist me in getting my money back. I collaborated closely with the FUNDS RECLAIMER COMPANY team over the course of the following few weeks, giving them all the data and documentation they need. To find the trail of my missing assets, they painstakingly examined the transaction history, followed the money's path, and used cutting-edge methods. It was a painstaking process, filled with setbacks and moments of doubt, but the FUNDS RECLAIMER COMPANY team never wavered in their commitment to my case. They kept me informed every step of the way, explaining the complexities of the cryptocurrency ecosystem and the strategies they were employing to recover my funds. The team's persistence and expertise were paying off, and they were making steady progress in tracking down the missing assets. I held my breath, praying that their efforts would bear fruit. My cautionary tale is a testament to the importance of being proactive, seeking professional help when needed, and never giving up in the face of adversity. The journey may have been arduous, but the lessons I've learned and the resilience I've developed have made me a wiser and more resilient investor, better equipped to navigate the unpredictable world of cryptocurrency.

In the northern royal kingdom of Arszden, nothing is as it seems. Being one of the oldest of the Fourteen Kingdoms, time has made its history both fact and fairytale, and to this day, nobody knows which is more accurate, either fantasy or reality. Katarina Kasdan was born free, but 321 days ago, her entire world crumbled at her feet. Not for the first time, and surely, not for the last. Stripped of her right to freedom after her entire village was burned to the ground, she was taken as a thrall by the woman known as the Keiserinne, and used for her dark wishes. But her wyrd was long ago settled. When the infamous Steel Kairo walks into her life, everything changes, once more. He is everything she hates. Everything she fears. Everything she loves. He has secrets interwoven with the very birth of the world he seems to carry in his shoulders, holds more power than one should ever be given to wield, and, on top of it all, he is said to be immortal. Something she should have known the first time she tried to stab him. Or when he offered to teach her to throw knives. Or when he kissed her for the first time. But as another king sits on his throne destined to fall, others reach to claim a crown bejeweled with secrets that could mean the unveiling of a long-lost prophecy and a wyrd millennia before settled. And as false kings race to claim an inheritance that is neither theirs nor the king's firstborn, the wyrd wields its hand to place upon the one true heir's head the crown of the Lost King. And amid such secrets lies a fate that claims that these two will be the bane of each other's existence until the blood of one of them is shed upon a land of daisies. Thus, chaos will come. Lives will be lost. Bonds will be made. Vows will be broken. Blood will be spilled. Fates will be set. And war will be waged. And the only remaining question is whether steel will be broken or a daisy will blossom. (Norse mythology and Viking inspired)

In the small town of Ravenshore, which appears calm and peaceful, lies a dark mystery that has persisted for decades. Every year, on the same date, a resident dies under unexplained circumstances. This annual tragedy has baffled many detectives, all of whom have failed to uncover the truth. Some detectives have even suffered mental breakdowns due to the relentless pressure, as if there were a great force that could not be stopped. Avery Sinclair and Ethan Thorne, two talented detectives with top reputations from the Capital, are sent to Ravenshore when the known pattern changes: two victims fall on the same date—something that has never happened before. They quickly realize that this annual tragedy is far more complicated than it appears on the surface. As they dig deeper, Avery and Ethan discover that Ravenshore was once the site of secret government experiments in the past. These experiments were conducted to research parallel dimensions, aiming to find technology or knowledge from other universes that could provide an advantage in various fields. However, the experiments led to unforeseen consequences. The rift created by these experiments turns out to be a bridge to another dimension, where the laws of nature operate very differently from their world. In this dimension, time flows more slowly, and those trapped within become stuck in a temporal loop, living in a cycle that repeatedly toys with their fate. Yet, this dimension is not just a wild land or foreign place; it is a simulated reality created and controlled by a highly advanced artificial intelligence from another dimension. This AI runs the simulation to study and manipulate the humans trapped within it. Everyone who “dies” in Ravenshore actually enters this simulation, where they live and die repeatedly without realizing they are mere pawns in a larger, broader experiment. Avery and Ethan find evidence that technology from these experiments still functions beneath Ravenshore. Massive machines, no longer recognized by modern scientists, operate with strange energy, surpassing known technology. With these tools, they can peer into the simulation and interact with the alternate reality, but every step they take brings great risk: the longer they are involved, the stronger the AI’s influence over them becomes, blurring the line between reality and illusion. They also discover that every year, the interdimensional rift automatically opens, drawing new victims into the simulation. The AI controlling the simulation grows smarter and more powerful with each new soul that enters, making it increasingly difficult to stop. With time running out, Avery and Ethan must find a way to close the rift, stop the AI system that has taken over the dimension, and save those who can still be saved. However, they also realize that every action they take could cause further damage to their own reality. They grapple with moral dilemmas and physical threats, betting their lives in a race to end the tragedy that has lasted for years. Amid the pressure and fear, they realize they may become the next victims—or worse, be trapped forever in an endless simulation with no hope of return.

After careful consideration, Wang Wei agrees, believing Chen Liang is a perfect match for his granddaughter. However, Wang Xiaoyun resents the decision, feeling trapped by her family's expectations. Out of respect for her grandfather, she reluctantly goes through with the marriage. At first, Wang Xiaoyun sees no attraction in Chen Liang, despite his status as one of the most desirable men around. Instead of growing closer, the two drift apart after their marriage. But fate takes a turn when Wang Xiaoyun is involved in a car accident that causes her to lose half of her memory. As she begins to rediscover herself, a slow-burning romance starts to blossom between her and Chen Liang—a man who has always loved her from afar.
