We were a peaceful people living in harmony with nature in the vast lands of Lyréanor, but this peace was short-lived when our people were defeated by the dark elves, an ancient people even older than this world. It is said that they arrived in Lyréanor by boat and since their arrival, chaos has been unleashed. Proud of their obscure power, derived from dark rituals, they have raised gigantic armies of monsters whose name is synonymous with terror: ‘Obscurus’. They went on the rampage, and everywhere they went the grass didn't grow back, life died and disintegrated. Seven, there were seven. The seven dark elves known as the Lords of the Apocalypse. A single gesture from them was enough to strike us all down, a single gesture from one of them was enough to decimate us in blood and terror. And as I, Foster, contemplate the macabre scene before me, the bloodied and deformed bodies of my fellow elfes beings, and as death grips my soul, a strange sign appeared before me. [Ding...

"Gordon! Why are you late? The awakening ceremony is right now!" Jessica said urgently when she saw Gordon come through the doors of the awakening center. Shrugging Gordon didn't say anything. The last thing in the world that he wanted to do was tell this beautiful girl that he had been tripped and beaten on the way to school today. It was times like this that he wished that he bruised more easily. Then maybe he could get some attention. But this thought was fleeting in his mind. Gordon actually preferred to deal with his problems in his own way. And awakening to become a beast tamer and maybe even have his own talent would be the first step. Once he had a powerful beast the bullies wouldn't dare pick on him. "Come on, let's get in line." Jessica whispered to Gordon when she realized that he wasn't going to tell her what had happened. Together they went to the back of the arena type auditorium to wait for their turn to awaken. They had been friends since childhood and had been there for each other through thick and thin. Jessica had been the only friend that stuck with him despite all of his quirks. Slowly the line inched forward. Occasionally some people in their class would cheer if in addition to becoming a beast master a student also awakened a talent.

We all have regrets or something we want to change in our lives, the past events we want to forget and move on from but can't. Even if we somehow manage to escape them, situations arise that remind us of the past, causing memories to flash through our minds and fill us with regret. What if we had to live through those moments again, but this time with the chance to make everything right and live the life we always idealized? The kind of life where we say, "If I had taken that decision instead of another, my life could be different," or "If I had not done that particular thing, my life could be different." On top of that, imagine getting a system like those in the novels we always read, where the protagonist becomes overpowered with a cheat skill, transforming from an underdog into the most powerful person in the story. This is the story of a similar boy who lived his life in regret, hoping for a second chance to make everything right and live his ideal life.

Yggdrasil, the world tree. A being of omnipotence that controls and guides the universe with its infinite influence and wisdom, seeking an outcome that no man or creature could comprehend. Many believe the world tree contains the universe and keeps it stable simply, but the truth is hardly ever so simple. Yggdrasil manifests the universe's will and constantly searches for a net positive outcome. However, these outcomes often come at great prices, with many of the Tree's actions resulting in the loss of millions of sentient lives. However, the Tree is Omnipotent and thus sees life at an infinite scale. This infinite view allows the tree to see the long-term effects of the decisions it makes, thus resulting in 100% net positive outcomes. However, in the past 60 years, there has been a disturbance, one from another universe entirely—a universe where pure chaos reigned supreme, and there was no overseer. This chaotic universe has begun to bleed through the universal folds of time and space, allowing interaction between the two. As a result of this bleeding, the planet most important to Yggdrasil's desired universal outcome is being overrun by the Void Seekers. In order to save its universe and destroy the Void, Yggdrasil has made a Drastic decision—a decision involving one man: Magni Gunvaldsen. [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] Welcome to my story, fellow humans. I have had to rewrite this story 15 times because I was never truly satisfied with it, but here I am with the final product. I have solidified the plot, given my main character a real personality, and corrected my writing style to fit the theme of the book more closely. The amount of time and effort I have put into this book is honestly frightening, but nonetheless, it is worth every second, penny, and sleepless night. I have set this novel up so that I can continue it indefinitely if need be, but I will at least have three volumes written in three years. Each novel will be 50 full-length chapters long and jam-packed with content, but I will not slack on the quality. I will be posting chapters at a minimum of 3k words once a week, and some will even go up to 6k or 7k. The first volume will focus on Magni's unique situation, emotions, and his drive for success. It will touch on many things, such as mental health, expectations, faith, and the will of others. The second volume will Focus on revenge and how the idea is flawed but, in an imperfect world, is a necessary evil. The 3rd volume will focus on the concept of destiny, the emotion of love, the correlation between the two, and the inverse. (this is when Magni's love interest will be revealed). Of course, there will still be plenty of action; this is an action novel series, but there will be solid themes of love in this 3rd volume. If that's not your cup of tea, then I don't care. I'm sure plenty of loyal readers out there will support me despite you. Welcome to a journey of a lifetime, and I hope you enjoy. [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] If you want real-time updates on my progress or just want to support me, you can go ahead and follow my Instagram, @Cathulhu01_OFF. I'm mainly doing this as a hobby, but if it takes off(which I doubt it will, but one can only hope and work harder), I will put a link to my Patreon. The subscription cost will be $5, but I will put a ton of content on there, so don't worry. Don't have a good day. Have a fucking fantastic day. CTHULHU

Everything was going according to plan—until my life was turned upside down. I had just graduated from university and was ready to start my career, fulfilling both my goals and those of my parents. But then, disaster struck. —— Creation of the World—a game that grants its user the ability to control a limitless world, with the power to create and destroy anything without restriction. Cassian watched helplessly as Earth was consumed by the world he had built. Unable to intervene, he suddenly found himself in a body that wasn’t his own. Cassian Starhold—the older brother of the world’s greatest hero. —— I was content with my life as a puppet, a slave whose only purpose was to toil away, sacrificing everything for a few worthless scraps of metal. But my enemies couldn’t leave me in peace. They brought war to my doorstep and destroyed everything I had spent my life building. I stood among thousands of their strongest sons, as they listened to the man who had ignited the fire in my life. Towering and imposing, he spoke from atop majestic marble columns, his gray hair blending with the crowd. Thousands of people, all sharing his features, gazed up at him with eyes filled with admiration and ambition. “People are not equal!” he declared, his voice dripping with arrogance. “We are the pinnacle of evolution! There is nothing beyond us! We have risen above piles of inferior blood, leaving massacres in our wake. And now, you are about to inherit this legacy.” He paused, surveying the crowd below with cold pride. “But this power must be earned. It is not granted by birth. Wealth, power, status… these things demand mountains of victims just to catch a glimpse of them.” His arms stretched wide, madness and pride gleaming in his eyes, and the crowd mirrored him, thousands roaring with fervent pride. The sight was terrifying. “You have no idea what your ancestors sacrificed to put you here. But you will learn. And I swear to you, with my pride on the line…” “Only those worthy of us will survive!” "Soon, I will show you why we are called dragons!" What these so-called dragons don’t know… is that a puppet will rise to shatter their illusions. He’s wrong. None of them will survive. ====== Author's Note: As you can see from the tags, the MC will eventually become a villain, but not at the beginning—and not even within the first three arcs. I'll take the time to carefully build his character and develop his transformation in a way that feels natural and logical. His ultimate goal is to return to his original family, so he harbors a deep hatred for the world he’s been pulled into. This novel will explore darker themes like slavery, murder, mind control, and betrayal. However, it will not contain R-18 content, so if that’s what you’re looking for, you might want to reconsider. The MC won’t be OP from the start, nor the smartest, but he will quickly gain experience and grow.
