Abyss Watchers

WSA 2025 ENTRY #WSA2025 Broken and shattered into a million pieces, Stark found all the memories of his past self forgotten, gone, swallowed by the endless abyss of nothingness. Stark opened his eyes to a desolate dark fantasy world filled with whisper and murmurs, sorcery and Esotericas, Grimoire and Palimpsest.

Should he have knocked on the looked doors of Resonance or sought for solace in the open arms of forgetfulness?

A promise. A fruit born from the sacrifice of his own lightbringers, was the one and only thing that stood between him and a fate that he knew not.

But as accursed as this may be, this could turn out to be the greatest strength. Therefore, one and all, I welcome you. Witness a new creation, a burning ray of light birthed from "cruelty and darkness". Might have some corrections here and there for more coherence but I do hope you enjoy.

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Billy Black never expected much from life, but even he didn’t think his own parents would sell him to demons for a sack of cursed gold. Betrayed and sacrificed, he awakens in the depths of Hell—not as some chosen hero or prophesied warrior, but as property. Stripped of his humanity and thrown into the lowest pits of the underworld, Billy is sold to a band of demon slavers and dragged into the Blood Crucible, a brutal gladiator arena where the damned fight, die, and rot for the amusement of their infernal masters. Weak and outmatched, he is nothing more than sport for the crowd—until starvation pushes him to do the unthinkable. In a moment of desperation, Billy devours the flesh of a fallen demon, its corrupted essence seeping into his bones. The transformation is slow, agonizing—his body warping, his mind darkening, his humanity slipping away. But with each bite, with each kill, he becomes stronger, faster, something not quite human anymore. His unnatural evolution catches the eye of Lady Vaelith, a widowed demon queen with a throne to protect and enemies circling like vultures. Intrigued by his potential—and aroused by his growing ferocity—she buys him from the pits. But not as a warrior. Not as a champion. As her consort. Billy refuses to be tamed, but the abyss is patient, and Vaelith knows how to turn fire into something even deadlier. As he spirals deeper into the pleasures and horrors of Hell, the question remains: is he still a man fighting for freedom, or has he become something far worse?

And with the gods in pursuit, there is no turning back. Will Lei Zhen rise to the challenge, or will the weight of the gods' wrath be his undoing? A story of ambition, power, and sacrifice unfolds as Lei Zhen’s journey to become more than human begins.

The seasoned player of "Abyss of Stars," the [Starfall Master] Li Zi, brings a system template and travels to the game's world, arriving in the era of the game's beta version. This is the worst of times. The cosmic forces and conglomerates collude, causing the doors to the universe to be closed, the planet's resources to be exhausted, and even sunlight to be monopolized.

While people are enthralled by the smoke of plasma guns and cannons, Li Zi has already torn apart battleships with gravity. While superhumans are smug about their awakened abilities, moonlight has already become Li Zi's servant. While the interstellar fleet crosses the Milky Way, Li Zi has just ignited the forty-second star, illuminating the entire universe.

In a world where every person is born with a spirit insect granting them unique powers, everyone is bound by the laws of fate and power rankings. From rank D to S, all strive to reach the top. But hidden beyond common knowledge lie the secret rankings—SS and SSS—where those who possess them do not follow the rules; they become the rule itself. Raine Earthon was born in a poor village deep within the forests, an outcast, weak, and without a visible spirit insect. He lived in disgrace, beaten and humiliated—until the day everything changed. In a single moment, the Black Butterfly awakened, an SS-ranked insect with a power beyond imagination—the ability to control fate itself. But this was no gift… it was a curse. When fate knocked on his door once more, it led him to the slaughter… to the massacre… to an eternal damnation. Drenched in blood, surrounded by the torn remains of his village, something new was born within Raine—something devoid of mercy. And when the secret organization stood before him, seeking to control him, his response was simple: rejection of the entire world. From that moment, the era of chaos began. Raine was no longer human, no longer just an insect wielder—he became a living catastrophe. Armies would perish, empires would crumble, and fate itself… would either bow to him or be torn apart. In the end, nothing would remain… except the abyss.
