A man once hailed as the most genius youth of his era on Earth is thrust into a game world after falling victim to an assassination attempt. The game, an action-romance genre, is a blend of several games created by the parent company behind "Revenge of the Goddess". Initially, it seemed like a dream come true for someone who had always fantasized about magical worlds filled with swords and adventure. But the reality quickly turned into a nightmare. His first problem is a deep-seated fear of knives and, to some extent, swords—a result of being kidnapped and nearly killed with a knife as a child. This traumatic event left lasting scars despite years of therapy. Now, in a world where combat is a way of life, his fear resurfaces. The second issue is his inability to use magic in a world where people can shatter mountains with a single punch, thanks to his "system." During his first years at the academy, his physical weakness was so pronounced that many suspected he was merely pretending to mock his enemies. Not only that, but due to the game’s collaboration events with other games, those elements also mixed into this main game. But the most daunting challenge is his role in this new world: he is the villain, the ex-boyfriend of the female lead, who is protected by seven god-like beings. With every reason to seek revenge, she’s on a path to kill him. In the original game, he had killed her at the start, setting off a chain of events that would lead to his death at her hands two years later. Despite all this, he still believes that his system might help him survive.the system holds the knowledge of a Nexus civilization that ranks as Type 11 on the Kardashev Scale. If you don’t know, the science achieved by such a civilization would make them god-like to us—a civilization that could wipe us out with just a thought. Still, the world he’s in is no ordinary one. Even with this system, his chance of survival is no more than 10%. Seeing this inevitable fate, he makes the only rational choice: to run away from the plot entirely and escape to another game. However, the road to survival isn’t simple. His ex and her god-like lovers relentlessly pursue him, determined to exact their revenge, even as he flees to Astral Academy, a powerful institution created by the gods and part of a completely different game than *Revenge of the Goddess*. But something is off—unlike in the original plot, the heroine follows him to Astral Academy, a place she was supposed to destroy with her own hands. Why is she here, and what does this change mean for his survival? The mystery only deepens, but one thing is clear: the plot is completely destroyed. Not only that, but the protagonist of this game falls in love with his ex-girlfriend, and she’s using him against me. Join our protagonist as he shows the power of science in a world of magic. Will he be able to fulfill the ultimate dream of every man by using magic at least once in his life? Discover who will win in the epic battle between science and magic. ********** MC will not be like other villains who start at the bottom and rise to top.He will be strong and will not hide his cards.

‘I possessed the female lead who runs away after becoming pregnant with the male lead's child. I know the original story, so there’s nothing to misunderstand!” So, I decided not to run away and instead seduce the male lead... “Quite a convincing act." My pretense of being the tragic original female lead was immediately seen through. “It seems my wife isn’t in the condition for a boat ride.” My desperate attempt at skinship to earn the female lead’s buff was brutally ignored. “Am I truly doomed?” After a moment of despair and grueling effort, I improved my relationship with the male lead and confessed about the pregnancy. But then. “The child.” With the same hand that had gently caressed Dahlia's belly, he softly cupped her cheek. “This way, I’ll have no choice but to kill you myself.” The warmth of his hand on her cheek felt chilling. “Don’t you agree, my wife?” …I should’ve just run away. It seems I’m totally screwed. ................................................................. Disclaimer: All rights to the original content belong to their respective creators.

From time immemorial, humans possessed one trait that every other species envied—adaptability. No matter their challenges, humans can always advance, adapt, and turn adversity into an advantage. This ability made every other species in the universe fearful. By the time they discovered this small species emerging from a relatively insignificant solar system in the Milky Way, it was already too late. In just 3,000 years, humans dominated planets, colonized a third of the Milky Way, and rose to become one of the galaxy's top species—an achievement almost unheard of. Fearing humanity's relentless potential, all other civilizations allied and launched an unending war against the humans. For a time, they seemed to be winning. But then, a man emerged—someone who created something even the aliens were too terrified to attempt. Energy. He crafted energy that defied the known laws of the universe. From nothing, he made matter, and with this, humanity advanced faster than ever before. The slaughter that the aliens had inflicted on their race ended, and humanity took its revenge. The man was known only as Alan. No one knew his true identity. After changing the world—for better or worse—he vanished without a trace, and no one ever found him. Three hundred years later, the Human World Alliance faced a new threat: betrayal and greed. As corruption slowly crept into human society, the aliens prepared to exploit their opportunity. -- 30 Consecutive powerstones: 3 chapter release 60 Consecutive powerstones: small mass release 100 Consecutive powerstones: Medium mass release 150 Consecutive powerstones: Mass release. -- Cover:AI

Present life Lily Rylan's life is turned into a nightmare when her stepmom, Viviana, calls her on phone on her wedding day, speaking with a hint of malice in her voice, tells her not to enter the wedding venue, instead instructing her to return home immediately. "Don't come to the wedding hall," her stepmother Viviana says, her words dripping with venom. This shocking command is just the beginning of a day filled with betrayal and heartbreak. As Lily arrives at the family manor, she pays the taxi driver, who immediately congratulates her, wishing "Lily a happy marriage." This makes Lily feel weird, and she quickly steps out of the taxi, raising her beautiful wedding gown. "Thank you," she says, smiling brightly, despite already feeling nervous. Walking from the gate, Lily's stunning wedding gown is on full display. The beautiful, big manor looms before her, complete with a fountain of water at its center. As she enters the manor's parlour, she's met with an elegant yet tense atmosphere. Her mother's picture is discarded in the least viewed spot - a secluded spot which is hardly seen in the parlour wall, while her stepmother's pictures are all over the walls, featuring her father intimately standing, holding her, and her stepsister, Liliana, by her side, smiling brightly. Lily still feels disgusted by them and immediately looks away, taking out her handkerchief and cleaning her eyes, as if she's seen something dirty. She's pulled from her thoughts by her stepmother walking down the staircase, followed by her father. "You called me home, stepmother Viviana? Is it anything serious?" Lily asks, her voice laced with concern. "How many times should I tell you to call her mother, but never mind for now," her father says, his voice firm but laced with a hint of annoyance. Her stepmother Viviana continues, beaming happily, "Your fiancé was drunk during your engagement after you left, saying you had something important to attend to. Now, we thought about it and finally want to tell you they were drugged and slept together. You don’t want your stepsister to be sad or give birth outside marriage, we won’t allow it. You have to allow her to marry him. No one knows how you currently look like now, so allow your sister to marry her husband."her father stated and continued his statement "He's the father of her unborn child, you have to understand," her stepmother immediately smiled brightly smirking at her happily. A sad smile is etched across Lily's face because they're only telling her this so she won't embarrass them by going to the wedding hall, which would be made impossible. Her father's eyes narrow, his voice cold. "You will do as we say, Lily. You will step aside and allow Liliana to marry Zayn." Lily's eyes flash with anger. "What if she has been with him for a long time, or even if he's not the father of the baby?" she spits, her voice venomous. Her stepsister, Liliana, smirks, and Lily retorts, "Her slutty mom gave birth to a slut like herself." This makes everyone gasp, and even the maids quickly escape from the family quarrel, not wanting to hear what would lead to their death. Lily's father immediately delivers a hard slap on her face, making his five fingers appear on her face. "You ungrateful wench," he growls angrily. Lily wipes the blood off, raises her head, and looks at her father scornfully. "You're just trying to cover up your own mistakes," she says, her voice cold. "You did the same thing, that's why you feel it's normal, right?" She says mockingly. Her father is about to hit her again when Liliana steps forward, saying, "Dad, no, don’t hit her again. I can understand how hurt she feels." lily and her husband moments shush I don’t want others to hear this sweet sound from you my white rose do you know how surprised I am you are finally mine lily this made lily shudder not with fear but in a sweet way coz his look said it all
