Essence Of Aether

Ascendant Academy: From Zero to Sovereign

In a world where the power of Aether determines one's destiny, Kael Ardent is an anomaly—a boy born without the ability to manipulate Aether, the mystical energy that governs the universe. Mocked and ostracized as the "Aetherless Wonder," Kael's dreams of greatness seem impossible. But when he stumbles upon an ancient relic during his first days at Celestial Ascendant Academy, a prestigious institution for Aether Manipulation, his life takes an unexpected turn. The relic—a mysterious pendant—grants Kael the ability to absorb and store Aether, something no one else can do. With this newfound power, Kael begins a slow, grueling journey from the lowest tier of the academy to the heights of the Celestial Class, where the strongest and most gifted students reign. Along the way, he forms bonds with a group of extraordinary women: Elara Veyra, a prodigy with a hidden past; Lyra Solen, a fiery rival who grows to respect him; Seraphina Dusk, a mysterious girl with a dark secret; and Aria Windrider, a kind-hearted healer who becomes his emotional anchor. But the academy is not what it seems. Beneath its glittering facade lies a web of corruption, forbidden Aether techniques, and a conspiracy that threatens to destroy everything Kael holds dear. As Kael grows stronger, he must navigate treacherous politics, deadly rivals, and the growing affections of the women around him. With the help of his friends and the power of the pendant, Kael will rise from zero to sovereign, challenging the very foundations of the academy and reshaping the world of Aether Manipulation forever.

Reincarnated As An SSS-Rank Skill Book

The Legendary Hero, Aether, was killed. Betrayed by his so-called comrades. After successfully wiping out all the demons, including the Demon King, from his world, Aether was stabbed in the back by his companions. "Why... you fuckers..." "Exalted Hero—No. Exiled Hero, Aether, under the commands of the Sankrea Alliance, you are subject to be killed after the Demon King is defeated!" Before dying, the world was frozen, and time stopped. In that state, Aether saw something descending from the sky, entering the Demon King's body. "A person chosen by the star, Aether Stardust, I am really impressed by your tales. But your ending leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. That said, I will offer you a second chance to make your ending better. Do you accept?" Aether accepted the offer, thinking that he would regress or reincarnate. However, instead of regressing or reincarnating, still as a human, he became a book... in a different world, nonetheless. One day, when a young girl discovered and read him... [You have read an Origin-grade book, Child Of The Stars.] [Establishing connections between the reader, Myra, and the book, Child Of The Stars... success!] [Compatibilty: PERFECT!!!] And then... [In case the reader of an Origin book dies, the book will vanish alongside its reader.] A disaster! To stay alive and get a human body, Aether had no choice but to teach Myra, who wasn't only weak but also couldn't communicate normally, and transform her into the strongest.

Edge of Nothing: Last Star of Dawn

Her life was simple but full of love. Growing up under the care and affection of her parents, she found joy in their humble home alongside her little brother. Despite the poverty they lived in, she had everything she needed: a family, love, and peace. But peace is a fragile thing, easily shattered. One fateful day, a young man entered her life like a storm, uninvited and unwelcome. What began as a passing interest in her soon morphed into a dangerous obsession. At first, she tried to dismiss his attention, hoping he would move on. But his fixation grew darker and more consuming, stealing away the innocence of her once-happy world. “Why can’t you just leave me alone?” she had cried, her voice trembling with both anger and fear. “Because you’re mine,” he had replied, his voice calm but chilling. “You just don’t realize it yet.” His obsession became a force of destruction. He tore through her life like a wildfire, leaving nothing untouched. The final blow came when her little brother, her greatest source of joy, was taken from her—killed by the same man who claimed to love her. Devastated and broken, she stood on the edge of the abyss, ready to let go of everything. The weight of her loss, her ruined innocence, and her shattered world was too much to bear. “There’s nothing left,” she whispered to the void, her tears falling freely. “Nothing worth staying for.” Just as she prepared to step into the darkness, a warm hand grabbed hers, pulling her back from the brink. Startled, she turned to see a man with kind eyes and a soft smile. “You called?” he asked, his voice gentle and calm, as if he’d been waiting for her all along. Before she could answer, exhaustion overtook her, and she fainted in his arms. With the shadows of the man who had destroyed her life still looming, will she ever manage to escape? And who is this mysterious stranger? Is this the end for her, or the start of something new?

Song of the Gardener of Souls [BL]

Rowan sees beauty in death. The Order he has sworn to obey only sees defilement. As the reviled Caretaker of the Order, Rowan has accepted his role as a dutiful outcast because he believes it is the only way to prove his worth to the man who holds his sisters’ souls as collateral. With his magic and his voice, Rowan can absorb death and transform it, but only in ways the Order deems acceptable to maintain the stability of the reality it claims to protect Order must subdue Disorder. Reality must triumph over illusion. He is tainted and always will be. Rowan has never questioned those lessons, but that changes the night he harvests a crimson soul that is more than human and chooses to keep it a secret. When Rowan’s song transforms that soul into a beautiful and mysterious man he names Wren, he is forced to accept that sometimes duty is a lie and illusion is the only thing you can trust. As the fabric of the Order begins to unwind and a new kind of Disorder takes hold, Rowan will need to choose again, stand with the Order that held him down, or forge a new path with Wren at his side. He may be the only one who can restore balance to the worlds, but only if he can find balance within himself first. ************************************* Updates 3-4 times per week. Note: This story focuses on relationships. I promise an epic romance, lots of swoon-worthy moments, and a healthy amount of fluff. When it does get steamy…you might get burned. Fair warning for explicit content. I don’t shy away from my spice. There are lots of side characters and couples to fall in love with, in addition to the main couple. If you love the idea of found family, you will be happy. This book is set in a non-heteronormative world, so you will see various gender identities/expressions and types of love. ************************************* Excerpt (if you want the full steamy version, you will have to read the book!): Still reeling from the new magic that coursed under his skin and unsure of how to react to the desire that threatened to take control of him, Rowan froze. Wren's hot breath against his mouth sent a jolt of pleasure through his body, and he choked back a groan. A different kind of panic flared in Rowan's chest, burning him as if he were the one on fire. This was what he wanted, what he'd thought about every night since Wren left. But wanting more was one thing. Acting on it was another. He'd spent so much of his life hiding, he didn't know how to do anything else. One corner of Wren's mouth twitched as Rowan pulled away. When he attempted to free himself from Wren's grasp, Wren just hauled him closer. Rowan liked that he didn't have to think about what to do next. His bare chest thudded against Wren's torso, and the heat from Wren's body merged with Rowan's skin, melting him from the inside out. "What did you just do to me?" Wren's deep voice vibrated against Rowan's chest. "The Disorder of your illusion was holding you captive. I…I absorbed it." "Oh? Where did you learn to do that? Have I been gone that long?" Wren's grip loosened slightly on Rowan's wrists as if he was satisfied now that Rowan was practically sitting on top him. Rowan stared at Wren's lips. He opened his mouth to protest, but immediately closed it again. "I know you aren't going to say that I shouldn't touch you." Wren's free hand splayed over the small of Rowan's back. "Not when you started it." Rowan's breath hitched. "No. I'm not going to say that anymore. Not to you." "I thought you were afraid to be touched." Wren's fingers traced a circle over the curve of Rowan's spine as if testing for a reaction. "I know that I'm not afraid of you." Rowan waited for the panic to set in, but all he felt was desire. "With you, I want…" "You want what?" "I want more." Triumph flared in Wren's gaze before he narrowed his eyes. "Really? Then why are you still trying to get away from me?"
