Upon awakening, he discovers that his transmigrations were no coincidences and is now in possession of the Crafts-God System, a system dedicated to creating a new successor to the deceased Crafts-God, who is an existence with the ability to create anything and everything.

Jason Carter always believed he was destined for mediocrity. His death was as unremarkable as his life—a freak accident that left no mark behind. But death is only the beginning. Jason awakens in a futuristic universe brimming with colossal megacities, interstellar travel, and worlds dominated by beings with superpowers, or Aspects. From the fiery strength of Solar Titans to the mind-bending abilities of Cerebrants, every individual is born with an Aspect—a manifestation of their core essence. In this world, power determines your worth. The weak are crushed. The strong rise to rule. Jason soon discovers that he, too, has an Aspect. But it’s not what anyone expects. Unlike most, Jason’s ability defies logic and categorization. It allows him to mimic and evolve the powers of beings he knew were fictional. Thrust into the harsh arena of survival, where warlords, bounty hunters, and galactic tyrants vie for supremacy, Jason quickly realizes that knowledge is power, and power is survival. As he carves a name for himself, Jason begins to uncover chilling truths about the origin of the Aspects and the universe itself. Each power has a price and the collectors were watching, waiting. With the fate of countless worlds hanging in the balance, Jason must rise beyond his limits and become something far more than a man with a stolen power. He must become the Ascendant, a force strong enough to challenge gods themselves. But in a universe built on power, Jason knows one truth above all: "Adapt. Survive. Conquer."

In the mystical realm of Enchantia, where magic reigns supreme, the prestigious Witcher Academy stands as a beacon of power and knowledge. Every year, young witches and warlocks from across kingdoms gather to master their craft, compete for honor, and vie for a chance to serve as elite sorcerers in royal courts. Among this year’s intake are three very different students: Asmodeus, a simple boy thrust into a world of sorcery he barely understands; Belial, a determined young witch with fiery ambition and a chip on her shoulder; and Madara Uchiha, a prodigy with a dark past and unmatched potential. Together, they navigate the trials and rivalries of the academy, forging unlikely bonds in the face of constant challenges. But lurking in the shadows is Lucifer, the academy’s most feared and powerful student. Refusing to graduate, he dominates the Witcher Academy with an iron grip, toying with students and staff alike in a never-ending display of his dark supremacy. Asmodeus and his friends are drawn into Lucifer’s web, forced to confront their fears, test their limits, and uncover the secrets that tie Lucifer to the academy’s darkest truths. As the annual Witch Ball Game approaches—a deadly competition that determines the academy’s elite—Asmodeus, Belial, and Madara must rise above their weaknesses, prove their worth, and challenge the power that Lucifer holds. But the question looms: will they survive his wrath, or will they become pawns in a game far beyond their understanding? With high-stakes magic, shadowy alliances, and the constant threat of betrayal, Shadows of Enchantia is a tale of ambition, resilience, and the fight to carve one’s destiny in a world ruled by power.

Enveloped by daunting responsibilities toward not only herself but also her five companions who depended on her success for their futures, Aroza resolved to prove herself as an invaluable ally rather than a perceived threat lurking beneath royal glitter.
