Penumbra Judgment Ost

Nathan Beck was never meant to be a hero. Life chewed him up, spat him out, and left him hollow. A ghost in his own skin, haunted by grief and disillusionment. But death offered him something else: A new viewpoint. And a question no one else was asking. Now reborn as Hidesuke Shinohara, a forgotten, F-tier “hero” in the digital world of Arc Zenith, he's granted an ominous, forbidden power: The Final Verdict System. It doesn’t hand out points. It doesn’t reward popularity. It exists for one reason alone: To pass judgment on the heroes who think they’re untouchable. In a world where saviors wear pretentious masks and villains are manufactured scapegoats, Hidesuke becomes the razor’s edge between false light and true shadow. As he climbs the twisted hierarchy of power, surveillance, and illusion, his blade becomes justice. As he hunts them one by one, his judgement zones carve truth into lies. Every sentence burns a legacy. Every sin carries a weight. And real justice finally gets a voice. - - - - - - - The alley was soaked, wall to wall with blood and rain. C-tier Hero "Rot" slammed Hidesuke through a rusted vent, sending shards of metal skittering across the floor. “You don’t get to judge me, you fucker!” he roared, face littered with ugly wounds and eyes wide with fury. Hidesuke coughed, blood in his teeth, and pushed himself up. “Thirty-five victims,” he rasped. “How many more must go down in silence before you feel any remorse?” Rot surged forward again, his palm bursting with hydroforce. Hidesuke didn't dodge. All conditions were met. It was time to end this. > “I bear witness.” Then the world around them split in half. Light scorched the pavement as the Judgment Zone warped reality, replacing every structure within the radius. The rain stopped midair. Sound bent in place. Everything froze except Hidesuke—and Rot, now locked inside with him. > “Violation of Article Nine.” > “You turned their lungs into breeding sites for your filthy worms.” Rot screamed, lunging again. But the chains found him first, wrapping around his legs, arms, throat. They hissed against his skin, burning through his armor and piercing his flesh. > “Sin Weight: 46.” > “Victim Count: 35.” > “Verdict confirmed.” Hidesuke walked toward him, limping slightly, voice steady. > “They desperately begged you for air. Yet you used them like lifeless objects.” > “Let this be your last breath.” His hand closed around the final seal. The glyphs flared red—then white. Veil didn’t get a last word. - - - - - - - [ ! ] If you've been looking for a story with a unique plot and background, congrats you've found the one. Don't waste any more time.

Ren Kuroda, a college student and hardcore gamer, finally conquers Eternal Souls: Last Judgment, an unbeatable RPG, only to be met with a strange message on his screen. “Congratulations, Champion. Would you like to unlock the bonus stage?” When he clicks "Yes," he is transported straight into the game world, reborn as Terence Ross, the overlooked third son of a minor noble family. Realizing he’s just an extra in a world teetering on ruin, Ren trains relentlessly to survive the coming chaos. However, life wasn’t smooth sailing. He was soon engaged to Lilith Underwood, the girl destined to become the game’s final boss, the Third Great Calamity. To avoid her devastating future, Ren takes a risky approach, trying to make Lilith emotionally dependent on him in the hopes of anchoring her humanity. Yet, his plan backfires spectacularly. Lilith’s attachment becomes a fierce obsession, one that could be just as dangerous as her dark powers. Now, as doom inches closer, Ren faces a double-edged crisis. He must keep Lilith’s powers in check while somehow surviving her unrelenting need to keep him by her side. In a world where even heroes fall, can an extra rewrite his fate? Or will he be claimed by the calamity he tried to prevent? ---- Join the discord: https://discord.gg/m5ZNWqG3ZP

When every human on Earth is forcibly transported to a massive, unknown world, they awaken not as citizens—but as rulers. Each person is assigned a sovereign domain: an island, a volcanic ridge, a glacial plain, a jungle basin, or even crumbling ruins atop a floating plateau. Each begins surrounded by a primitive yet unique non-human tribe sworn to them by force of the world’s laws. Each is granted a Starter Pack, a ruined but restorable set of core structures, and one truth burned into their minds: “Rule. Or fall.” Thirty days of inviolable protection. Then the Blood Moon will rise, and with it, judgment. Every monarch must rebuild, organize, and survive on terrain both alien and unforgiving. Hunting outside the barrier is dangerous. Resources are limited. Other rulers are out there—unknown, unseen, potentially aligned or already at war. But one man—Riku, dropped into a jagged highland crater with a fierce tribe of Fireborn Draganoids—has something none of the others received: A silent, hidden system that multiplies his resources, structures, weapons, and warriors—but only the things he truly owns. He tells no one. He posts no messages in global chat. He does not seek allies. While the world fumbles for footing, Riku builds toward an invisible dominance. And when the Blood Moon rises, his name will be ranked where none expected. For discord server: https://discord.gg/EZGjh8tp (Still under development)

Cassian was the heir to Evergreen Palace—until the empire crumbled, his father was imprisoned, and high society turned its back without hesitation. Now, he lives in shadows, barely making ends meet, haunted by betrayal and a promise he made to himself: they will all pay. A small coffee shop becomes his refuge in a quiet corner of the city. It’s the place he meets Noah—calm, enigmatic, and strangely familiar. Noah doesn’t look at him with pity or judgment. He sees him. And for the first time in months, the weight of survival feels a little lighter. But love is a luxury he can’t afford—not when every step forward is a move in a game of vengeance. Still, as secrets unravel and the past comes calling, he finds himself torn between the justice he craves … and the person who just might save him from himself.

Ash opened his eyes to find that he had traveled to a strange nation of many races, and people were kneeling before him. Before he had time to adapt to the new identity of the Terminus Observer, he was put to jail – as a cult leader. In prison, controlled by a high-tech chip, he was unable to use violence. He also lost all his memories due to the time warp. How could he escape from the prison full of ogres, green-skinned beasts, sorcerers, and elves in this strange nation? And how could he survive the legendary Blood Moon Judgment? "Ding! You obtained a game system – Mage Manual! It includes an illusory world map, which can predict risks and gains, helping you find advantages and trouble, and greatly improve exploration efficiency!" "Ding! You obtained Deadly Berserker Sword Maiden! You can share all skills and upgrade together with her!" "Ding! You encountered an Illusory Vortex! Go straight through the heartland of the Illusory Realm and harvest a lot of experience to create the Silver Wing!" ... Is this the legendary system? It not only gives me free skills, but also a skillful fighter? Ash discovered that even though he was in the Otherworld, he could dominate his own destiny with the system, and even...dominate the entire Otherworld!

Auren Vael awakens with no memories—only a mission. Across countless realms, when justice crumbles and tyrants rule unchecked, fate summons him. Reborn again and again as the Karmic Heavenly Knight, Auren is a divine instrument of retribution—his past erased, his powers untouched, his purpose unchanging. He does not remember who he is. But his soul does. In each life, Auren rights what was broken, liberates the oppressed, and disappears the moment balance is restored. He asks for nothing. He leaves nothing behind. His blade delivers not vengeance, but judgment. But this life is different. Whispers of old memories begin to surface. Shadows of forgotten lives claw at his mind. And something stirs within the heavens themselves—a fear that their perfect weapon may one day turn his blade against them. Bound by karma, haunted by glimpses of his past, and hunted by those who fear the justice he brings, Auren must face the one enemy he never could before: fate itself. This is his reckoning. This is his curse. This is his legend. “Freed from mortal coil.

Melanie Collins was the perfect wife—caring, strong, and dependable. For the last few years, she had managed her husband’s messy family, and business alone while waiting for her husband to return from studying abroad. But when he finally came back, Melanie’s world fell apart—he wasn’t alone. Along with him was his 'best' friend. Broken and confused about the change in her husband, Melanie didn’t know where to turn. And then she stumbled into another cold reality. Everything she had believed was a lie. Seething with anger and humiliation, as she tried to come to terms with the betrayal, an unexpected person steps into the picture, intent on seducing her and conquering her. The only problem? The man was her ex brother in law... And against her better judgment, she is attracted to this bad boy... But as Melanie tried to make sense of the changes, she discovered there was more going on than she ever imagined. Had both brothers loved really fallen in love with her? Or was she just a pawn in a bigger game? excerpt Since he had already been leaning against the table, he simply slid onto it, and with one swift motion, he hooked his boot around the leg of her chair and pulled it—pulled her—closer.The sudden movement made her jolt slightly, and when she looked up or rather when she looked ahead, she found herself staring directly at the zipper of his jeans... She looked up then and met his gaze. He caught her chin," Would you like to check if I am only pretending, sweet melon?"Melanie stiffened. And then pushed back her chair suddenly, so that Adam almost lost his balance, as she stood up. Before he could balance himself, she placed her hand on his shoulder, her fingers brushing against his neck.  Adam stiffened, his eyes glittering as he waited to see what she would do next. And she, of course surprised him as her other hand, slowly settled on the inside of his thigh. And then, the hand on his shoulder started to move. Her fingers tracing the side of his neck before lifting as she shot a glance to the corner of his mouth. The little piece of metal glinting there. She flicked at it lightly, barely a touch, but Adam could feel the heat all over his body, as she leaned in close, her lips barely a few centimetres away...so that they could both feel each other's breaths… She smiled slowly then. "Careful, Adam," she murmured, her voice playful, but carrying the unmistakable edge of a challenge. "Keep pushing, and I just might call your bluff."

Azareel was once the gentlest of angels—a being of light who healed without judgment and loved without fear. For that, he was exiled. His wings severed. His halo stripped. Cast from heaven for showing mercy to monsters. Now he falls into the Abyss—a place where nightmares roam, monsters hunger, and even gods are forgotten. A land where nothing soft survives. But Azareel? He doesn’t fight it. He forgives. And that’s exactly what makes the monsters notice him. From a towering cat-beast who once massacred villages… to a serpent-wraith who coils around the dead whispering forgotten names… to a bloodstained war-bride who believes love is earned through suffering—they are drawn to him. And Many more. Not to devour, but to understand. To be near. To feel something again. Each of them is broken in ways Azareel refuses to judge. But the Abyss doesn’t forgive kindness. And some monsters weren’t made to be healed. In a world built on cruelty, can one gentle soul survive… without turning cruel himself? ____________ This is not a revenge story, but a slice of life, romance, comedy, and smut with hot demons. The MC is an angel even after tossed into the abyss. No ntr, yuri. 18+ contains sex. More than you would expect.

Life is great when you're the hero. You're handsome, charismatic, you've got girls throwing themselves at you left and right. You're handy with a sword, you know how to lead by example, you've got a grand destiny ahead of you. Despite all of your hardships, no matter what comes your way you've got what it takes to overcome it. So what happens if you're not the hero, but his sidekick? Turns out being second fiddle to the main event isn't nearly so glamorous. But a hero only stands tall when he's got others to hold him up. This is the story of a hero and his oft-overlooked, sarcastic little sidekick... P.S. If you'd like to leave a review or critique, have at it. But do me a favor and be constructive about it. If all you're going to do is be a judgmental hack who doesn't write themself but feels entitled to tear down others, then leave. I have no time or patience to deal with you.

No one volunteered. You were torn away from where you lived — from the life you knew. You don't know why your name began to shine. You don't know why, while staring at that dark sky, you suddenly woke up in the middle of another world. This was neither a game, nor a dream. This was reality — broken and twisted. And with each passing day, the way back... became even more impossible. Riven Altarai was just the beginning of the rupture. Like him, many were summoned by forces unknown. Each came from different pasts, carrying different wounds — but now, in this new world, they all fought to survive the same nightmare. But what was this world? A judgment? A punishment? Or perhaps the second awakening humanity truly deserved? Those who gained power — would they become gods? Or would they awaken the monsters within? The answer lies within the Seal of the Night. And when the seal breaks... nothing will ever be the same again.

Heaven-Defying Asura Li Shen is nothing more than a slave, despised and broken, a mere handyman in the prestigious Azure Cloud Sect. Unknown to all, he carries the cursed blood of the annihilated Heaven Destruction Clan, a lineage whose three patriarchs once dared to defy Heaven's Will. This forbidden heritage manifests as the Heaven Asura Destruction Body, a dormant power that renders him seemingly talentless in Qi Cultivation, constantly suppressed by the very essence of the world. His only path to power, and to full awakening, lies in the brutal consumption of demon-corrupted cultivators, whose blood feeds his unique constitution. When his former masters, the Blackwood Noble Clan, are decimated by a savage raid of these demon-corrupted forces, Li Shen, in a desperate struggle for survival, slays his first corrupted foe. This act triggers the faint stirrings of his terrifying potential, pushing him from victim to survivor. Rescued by the Azure Cloud Sect, he endures the scorn of the Handyman Elder Guo and the cosmic hindrance of Heaven Suppression, secretly honing his Blade Cultivation – the only path where his innate talent can flourish. His desperate goals are clear: achieve power for survival, exact revenge for his clan's downfall, gain recognition in a world that despises him, and, most crucially, procreate to ensure the continuation of his unique, heaven-defying bloodline. Li Shen's opportunity arises when he heroically saves the Grand Elder of the Outer Court, elevating him to an Outer Disciple and granting him access to the crucial "demon cleansing missions." Through these perilous missions, he ruthlessly hunts and absorbs the blood of countless demon-corrupted cultivators, rapidly awakening his Heaven Asura Destruction Body. His cultivation explodes, allowing him to easily comprehend Dao and identify the flaws in any technique, making him an unstoppable force. His ascent, however, is not without cost. Forced to flee the ruins of his temporary home, Li Shen finds himself thrust into the chaotic expanse of the Immortal Realm, where the true scale of the cosmic conflict is revealed. Here, he discovers the existence of the Heaven Will Judgment Clan, the enforcers of Heaven's dictates, who were directly responsible for the annihilation of his ancestors and now seek to finish off his bloodline. He also finds himself embroiled in a grand struggle against a powerful Demon Sovereign, whose influence spans realms and whose forces represent the very beings Li Shen has been consuming. His journey becomes a furious quest to not only survive and exact revenge on his oppressors but to challenge the very fabric of cosmic law. He cultivates beyond the known limits, pushing his Heaven Asura Destruction Body to its peak, defying all odds. In a climactic, realm-shattering confrontation, Li Shen, alongside his descendants – born from his desperate drive to procreate and imbued with his unique heritage – wages war against the Heaven Will Judgment Clan and clashes with the Demon Sovereign. In the end, Li Shen and his burgeoning Heaven Asura Destruction Clan triumph. The Heaven Will Judgment Clan is utterly annihilated, their reign ended, and the oppressive grasp of Heaven's Will is shattered. The world, no longer bound by cosmic tyranny, shifts, and a new era dawns, one where the Heaven Asura Destruction Clan reigns supreme, its legacy forged in blood, defiance, and the ultimate triumph over fate.

"Time... the one force even we couldn't comprehend. We danced upon the stars, sculpted worlds, and etched eternity into stone. We believed ourselves beyond death—convinced we had transcended Time itself. But Time... it watched. It waited. And now, it strikes to prove us fools. What irony... To build empires that span millennia, only to be undone by a flicker. A single soul, born beneath the veil of dust and dream—but chosen by fate. Why? Why would that power choose him? What purpose lies in such defiance? Why would the power only slumber within a child cradled by mortals? Even we, for all our knowing, are left to wonder... and in fear." “Huh? What are you mumbling about, old man?” “You'll see... very soon, when Time’s judgment befalls us.”

Born without fate, he devoured the destinies of gods. In the beginning, Alister Von Fai was nothing, no name, no soul, no right to exist. But when the forbidden records of countless fallen universes converged, something unprecedented emerged. The Mother of All failed to foresee him. A devourer. A harbinger. A threat to Ascendance itself. The heavens condemned him. The Incarnates of Disaster hunted him. Even those who loved him sought to seal or slay him. But Alister was no fool. He saw through their fears, their desires, their judgment. For his path was never written. His existence, never sanctioned. And his desire? Not for wealth. Not for glory. Not for fleeting mortal fame… But to become the Ascendance of All. A being beyond fate. Beyond law. Beyond even the gods. --- [WPC JULY] Try reading this story and if its within you're cup of tea.

After Earth collapses into dimensional entropy, billions of people are scattered across broken worlds and forced into a brutal survival game known only as the Shattered Trial. Each player gains a random class. Most wield magic, swords, or elemental power. But Iden Virel, a former engineering student, is given something else. A black ring. A broken interface. And the command: [SUMMON: Skeleton – Worker Class] With a system unlike any other, Iden can summon and assign skeletal minions to tasks—miners, scouts, warriors, mages, builders, and more. These skeletal followers don’t sleep, don’t eat, and never stop improving. The longer they work, the smarter they get. Together with his sister Rael—a rare Sanctum Channeler who can empower and evolve allies—Iden must lead his growing skeletal force through monster-infested zones, hostile player factions, and ancient ruins... all while preparing for the apocalyptic battle known as the Final Judgment. In this world, only one law remains: Build. Adapt. Conquer. Or be erased.

Synopsis In a world where revenge shapes empires and destroys bloodlines, Matulo—a yellow stickman from the planet Ghost Archipelago—dared to break the cycle. Born into a tyrannical dynasty, raised by a sadistic mother who tortured green children in the name of honor, Matulo chose the darkest and most solitary path: that of rupture. After murdering his own mother by poisoning her medicine, he turned against everything she stood for. Now, as the self-proclaimed Reaper of Vengeance, Matulo hunts murderers, torturers, and fanatics who keep alive the ideology that destroyed him from within. Neither heroes nor villains are safe—only those who have abandoned the desire for revenge can escape his silent judgment. Hunted by his sister, the gray government, and the bloody ruins of the Red Brotherhood, Matulo is the symbol of a new war. Not for power—but for purification.

Centuries before the common era, in a world grappling with divine mysteries and human fallibility, a profound prophetic work emerged: The Book of Enoch. This ancient text, attributed to Noah's great-grandfather, Enoch, unveils astonishing revelations—from the fall of the Watchers (angels who descended to earth and corrupted humanity) to the detailed workings of the cosmos, vivid prophecies of the Messiah, and the ultimate judgment. Enoch, an antediluvian patriarch who walked with God, acts as our guide through celestial journeys, revealing secrets of creation, the nature of good and evil, and humanity's destiny. His visions paint a stark picture of a pre-flood world overrun by giants and wickedness, but also offer glimpses of divine justice and future redemption. For millennia, The Book of Enoch existed on the fringes of accepted scripture, revered by some early Jewish and Christian communities, yet ultimately excluded from most canonical collections. Its influence, however, resonated deeply, subtly shaping theological thought and apocalyptic literature. Then, in the mid-20th century, a monumental discovery in the caves of Qumran near the Dead Sea brought The Book of Enoch back into the spotlight. Among the thousands of ancient manuscripts unearthed—the Dead Sea Scrolls—were numerous copies of Enochic texts, written in Aramaic and Hebrew. These remarkably preserved scrolls not only confirmed the antiquity and widespread circulation of The Book of Enoch but also illuminated its central role within the Qumran community, believed to be the Essenes, a Jewish sect deeply invested in eschatological beliefs and adherence to divine law. "The Book of Enoch: The Dead Sea Scrolls" weaves together the extraordinary narrative of Enoch's revelations with the thrilling account of the scrolls' discovery and their subsequent impact. It explores how these ancient manuscripts from the Judean Desert provide unprecedented insight into the rich tapestry of Second Temple Judaism, the origins of early Christianity, and the enduring power of apocalyptic vision. By examining the Enochic fragments found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, this book uncovers a vital missing link in our understanding of biblical history, prophecy, and the spiritual yearning for divine truth that transcends generations. It is a journey into an ancient world, a testament to enduring faith, and a thrilling exploration of how buried texts can reshape our perception of the past and our hopes for the future.

Synopsis: The Iron Rebellion: Rise of the Sovereign War. Betrayal. Power. And the will of one man to seize it all. Kael Ashmark was born without a name, an orphan of war found amidst the ashes of Ashmark Hold, a frontier keep left to rot by a fractured Empire. Raised by scavengers, he learned to survive by instinct, his hands honed for a blade long before he learned to read. At sixteen, after witnessing Imperial forces butcher innocent families while their garrison turned a blind eye, Kael made his first kill in retribution, swearing never again to kneel to a crown that failed its people. From the dying highlands of Gravenmarsh, Kael forged the **Iron Rebellion**. With raw conviction, he united outlaws, peasants, and deserters, first striking with brutal ambushes that earned him the whispered title of "Sovereign". His audacious capture of Duskwatch Fortress shattered Imperial complacency. As the Empire's High Crown Orsain Vellgaard and the fanatical Archlector Malgrad declared his rise heresy and prepared for a total "judgment," Kael unveiled a desperate new strategy: not open battle, but a war of attrition. He unleashed a **scorched earth** campaign, turning fertile lands into barren ash, forcing his own loyal villagers into the harsh mountain holds of Ravencair. His Red Veil, led by the zealous and terrifying Seyda, became a haunting force, melting into shadows to stalk Imperial patrols and leave chilling messages of dread. Lady Virelle Velmire, a cunning noble with ambitions as cold as steel, joined his cause, skillfully poisoning Imperial supply lines with doubt and misinformation. Even the loyalties of Imperial spies, like the conflicted Nalen, began to fracture, turning the Empire's own blades against itself. As the gargantuan Imperial Legions lumber north, plagued by hunger, sickness, and mounting paranoia, Kael’s defiance grinds them to a desperate crawl. He watches them succumb to the brutal choices he forces upon them, turning the very machine designed to crush him into a monstrous reflection of its own cruelty. But as the war intensifies, and his people endure untold suffering in the mountain holds, Kael must confront the one thing he never wanted: what comes after victory? Will he become the tyrant he fought against, or will he forge something new—an empire not born of bloodlines, but of belief? *The Iron Rebellion: Rise of the Sovereign* is a raw, uncompromising tale of brutal strategy, shifting power, and the profound cost of defiance in a world ruled by bloodlines and betrayal. Discover one man’s relentless ascent from nothing, until the kingdoms whispered his name in fear.

Spies die in silence. Saints burn in light. Era might do both. After a lifetime of covert operations and moral compromises, Era hoped to spend her exile in quiet prayer at an English monastery. But when a corpse levitates during evening vespers and the sweet old nuns start collecting its blood like holy wine, she realises she’s stepped into something far older and far worse than sin. Soon, she’s in the custody of H.V.N, a shadowed agency that doesn’t serve any country, but answers directly to the gods. Plural. And they’re not happy. Because Era wasn’t meant to get involved. Now, she has two choices: execution… or servitude. Her only option is to survive the God's trials, prove herself useful, and perhaps earn a place in a pantheon-bound war where saints are spies and magic comes with contracts. But Era’s never played by anyone’s rules-least of all gods with agendas. And the deeper she falls into their tangled world of relics, prophecy, and judgment, the more she begins to suspect this wasn’t an accident at all. Maybe Era was never just an unlucky witness. Maybe she was the trigger.

Kael was never meant to be a hero. Bullied, broken, and betrayed by the world, the 95 kg high school shut-in had nothing—no friends, no purpose, just scars hidden beneath his hoodie. But when the world begins to collapse into chaos, and God Himself unleashes judgment upon a sinful humanity through monstrous ancient beasts and divine reckoning, Kael is chosen. Why? Because even when the world was cruel, Kael remained righteous. Gifted with Divine Echo, an S-rank ability that removes all limitations from any power he uses, Kael begins a transformation—both physical and spiritual. From obsessive training and relentless self-discipline, he sculpts his body into a weapon. From heartbreak and trauma, he forges a mind sharper than any blade. And from isolation, he builds resolve—unshakable and merciless. But this is no fairytale redemption. Kael isn’t here to save the world. He’s here to survive it. With humanity collapsing, safe zones crumbling, and ancient predators ruling the Earth, Kael must lead, fight, and manipulate his way through a new reality—one where power is truth and morality is a luxury. He’s no longer the boy others could ignore. He’s the ghost in the fog. The saint with bloodstained hands. The one whose echo will never fade.

"Kneel,” she commanded, her voice sounding like that of an ancient. I was bemused. “I beg your pardon?” I asked. “You have no idea who you are dealing with.” “Oh, I know precisely who you are,” she replied. “Alpha Mätrang, the Crowned Prince of Ngäerawa. Säli has been whispering to me.” “Now kneel before the daughter of Säli, the first of her kind.” “The goddess forbid me from kneeling—” My knees were already kissing the ground before I could continue. My eyes widened with disbelief. “This… this is impossible,” I said.Agonizing pain seared my lower back as strings of words unfurled from her mouth. The mist crept towards me slowly. My skin scalded where the mist kissed. Each breath I drew felt like my last. She cocked her head. “Nothing is impossible for Säli.” ..... Centuries ago, Säli males arrogated the rights of the females, stripping them of any illusion of freedom. They maintained an antediluvian belief that females were slaves, turning them into breeders. The way they comported themselves, one would think they were the ones gifted by the goddess Säli, that they possessed the moon’s powers. The females were once bestowed with gifts from the goddess, but now they're saddled with suffering. But that was before the moon goddess Säli decided to put an end to the suffering by planting seeds in a female's womb. Nine moons later, she delivered a girl, Txälina, one who was born beneath the red moon, one who could command the world to its knees. Just as she was conferring upon the males a taste of their torment, she was interjected by the crowned prince of the realm, Mätrang. He thought she was a monster, but when he found out she was his mate, he was bemused. He would need to take her to the king for judgment for the massacre she created, but the pull of the mating bond was difficult to resist. And if he gives in to the mating bond, it would affect his position as the crown prince of the realm.

In the boundless realm of Heaven, where celestial order reigns supreme, one trial has the power to change everything. Devil’s Advocate: Angel on Trial is a sprawling epic that challenges the very foundations of divine law, plunging its readers into a courtroom saga that spans over a thousand chapters, filled with twists, revelations, and moral conflicts that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Seraphiel, once a shining beacon of Heaven’s grace, now stands accused of the greatest sin in the eyes of the divine: heresy. Her crime? Defying the doctrine that has governed the heavens since the dawn of time. Yet, the truth of her actions remains shrouded in mystery. Was she truly guilty, or is there a darker force at work one that will threaten not just her soul, but the very fabric of celestial law? At the heart of this monumental trial stands Lucien, a fallen angel who has spent centuries in the shadows, exiled for his own transgressions. Now, summoned from obscurity to serve as Seraphiel's defense, he must navigate a court where nothing is as it seems. The Court of Eternal Judgment, the highest authority in Heaven, has always been revered as infallible but Lucien’s return signals the beginning of a reckoning. As he delves deeper into the trial, he uncovers hidden truths and forbidden secrets, suggesting that Heaven’s unblemished image is a carefully crafted lie. Lucien’s journey is no longer just about defending Seraphiel it becomes a battle for the very soul of Heaven itself. For every piece of evidence uncovered, every forbidden truth revealed, more questions arise. Why have angels been silenced for centuries? What is the true cost of unquestioning obedience? And how far will the celestial beings go to protect their own corrupt order? As the trial unfolds, Lucien faces not only the wrath of the Celestial Judges—Metatron, Uriel, Raphael, and others but the unsettling revelations that challenge everything he once knew about Heaven, the angels, and himself. The law that once bound Heaven in harmony now feels like a cage, one that keeps its denizens imprisoned in a system of fear, manipulation, and conformity. But Lucien is no longer the obedient angel he once was. With each new discovery, his resolve hardens. He will not stand by while Heaven’s corruption is swept under the rug. But the battle grows more complex as the celestial realms themselves begin to fracture. Other factions, long hidden from mortal and divine eyes, start to make their presence known. Some seek to uphold the old laws, while others like the rebellious faction led by Aethon, the First Prosecutor hope to tear the system apart from within. As the trial enters its most dangerous phase, Lucien must confront the heart of the celestial order itself. The lines between right and wrong, angel and demon, justice and tyranny, blur beyond recognition. The stakes have never been higher. Heaven’s very foundation hangs in the balance. And Lucien’s role as both advocate and challenger forces him to grapple with his own place in this world and whether he’s ready to expose the truth, no matter the cost. Will Lucien succeed in his mission to expose Heaven’s corruption, or will the ancient forces of divine law crush him under their weight? Can he save Seraphiel from an unjust fate, or will he become a martyr to a system that no longer believes in mercy? This is no ordinary courtroom drama. This is a war for the heart of Heaven. Devil’s Advocate: Angel on Trial is a thousand-chapter epic that weaves together courtroom strategy, divine intrigue, philosophical dilemmas, and action-packed sequences in a tale of redemption, betrayal, and the quest for justice. With each chapter, the web of lies unravels, exposing dark secrets and moral ambiguities that challenge the very nature of good and evil. Will Lucien—and by extension, Heaven survive the trial, or will it collapse under the weight of its own corruption?
