*****WSA 2025 Entry***** Kael's life ended in a blur of misfortune—but death wasn't the final chapter. Instead, he wakes up in the world of Erendath, a realm he once only knew from the MMORPG Ascension: The Path of the Reborn. But this isn't a game anymore. The dangers are real, the pain is unrelenting, and the rules have changed. Awakened with a mysterious and powerful class called the Rebirth Core, Kael finds himself thrust into the heart of a dark and twisted world. Every threshold level he gains unlocks new overpowering abilities—but also awakens monstrous Darkspawns, creatures from the abyss who are drawn to him, hungry for destruction. To survive, Kael must navigate through deadly lands, unravel the secrets of the Ascension System, his Rebirth Core, and also learn to control the curse that haunts him. With the fate of both his new life and his old one on the line, Kael must question everything he thought he knew about life, death, and his place in this brutal world. Will he rise to his destiny, or will he be consumed by the very system once used by others to escape reality? A journey of power, secrets, and survival awaits—where every decision could be his last.

In a world ruled by ancient bloodlines and divine entities, the once-mighty Void Dragon Clan lies in ruins, its legacy buried in ash and blood. From the shadows of their downfall emerges Damon, a warrior forged in chaos and tempered by destruction. Unbeknownst to many, Damon is the reincarnation of an undefeated god from a forgotten era, a being whose very essence once commanded the heavens and sowed fear across the realms. Stripped of his divine throne and thrust into a mortal shell, he is haunted by the echoes of his past glory—and the insatiable power that craves to return to its true owner. Branded by the mark of the Void and hunted for the godly power coursing through his veins, Damon embarks on a ruthless quest to reclaim what was once his. He is no hero; he is the embodiment of fear, a force of domination who seeks to bend the world to his will. As ancient gods stir and rival clans vie for dominance, Damon’s path is one of bloodshed, betrayal, and unrelenting ambition. But the power he seeks is a double-edged sword: it could restore him to his rightful place as a god—or consume the very world he seeks to rule. Will Damon ascend as the ultimate tyrant, or will the world crumble beneath the weight of his insatiable hunger for power?

With his modern knowledge and past experiences, the protagonist alters the course of history, forcing the Mughals to surrender and retreat beyond the Ravi River, which is in modern-day Pakistan. As a reward, he is granted trading rights and becomes the emperor’s personal attendant. Using this opportunity, he sets out to reshape the empire. By promoting private enterprise, establishing trading company, and creating opportunities for the lower communities, he begins to shift India’s economy away from the feudal system toward modern capitalism. And all this began with the advent of his mercenary army, which excelled in firearms far ahead of its time. His journey is filled with trials, including internal turmoil, political strife, and the looming threat of invasion from the Mughals in the west, Tibet from the north and the Dutch and Portuguese in the south. As the emperor’s trusted aide, the protagonist not only rescues the crumbling empire but also forges his own path, eventually claiming the title of emperor himself. Join him on this incredible journey of empire's ascension, as he explores how India could have been in the 16th century if history had taken a different course. With just one battle's result, the fate of the entire world is transformed.

Crossers invaded the world and thrust Humanity into an interworld conflict. Humanity's instinct for survival was stimulated—rekindling the ancestral bloodline's legacy that lies dormant within them.

In his final trial, he swore to succeed but fate intervened, he was chosen as the monthly sacrifice for his city. In a near-death experience, his bloodline awakened, an Angel. A turning point in his life, but soon he realized that he was not the Angel he thought to be. In a world where the rulers were descendants of Dracula, the Dark Prince—or Chi Long, the Inferno King, the bloodline of malevolent beings from realms beyond mortal comprehension coursed through Lucivar's veins. While others became Hybrids, Lucivar became the messenger of Evil Gods, a False Angel. "Who cares about good or evil? If I kill someone wicked, it's a win, one less rival in my way.

Chapter 1 to 22 will be focused on the MC's descent to villainous but once it kicks off, you won't be disappointed!
