Castle Of Dark Illusion Yugioh

"I don’t remember who I was before stepping onto that pirate ship... And maybe I never want to remember." Raised among torn sails and the salty scent of the sea, I found in a pirate crew the only family I ever knew. Years passed, and my hardened heart believed that adventures and battles were all I needed... until he appeared. A mysterious nobleman, with eyes that seemed to hold all the secrets I had forgotten. His scent was different — it didn’t smell of rum and sweat, but of memories I insisted on burying. “Where have you been all this time?” he asked, as if he knew me better than I knew myself. Torn between the instinctive call of my omega body and the need to keep my secrets buried, I have to decide: face a past I’ve always run from... or keep sailing without looking back.

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.

When 25 students from different backgrounds were invited to join “Primera Elite High School,” they all thought it was just a prestigious boarding school. But they were wrong. The education here is far from normal. The teachers don’t give lessons — they observe. Instead of classes, there are psychological tests, challenges, and rankings. Little by little, the students realize they are part of a game they never chose. A game that evaluates their every move, tests their will, their minds, and their loyalty to one another. In this school… no one is who they seem, and the real question is: who will control the game — and who will become its victim?

Ahmaya’s life had always been surrounded by questions and oddities. A mysterious tree in her grandma’s home, strange occurrences, and an unsettling distance between her and her family had created a sense of isolation. Her mother’s sudden disappearance left a void that no one spoke about, and the more Ahmaya tried to fit in, the more she felt out of place. But everything changes when she starts to awaken to the truth about herself. As she begins to understand her divinely bestowed powers, Ahmaya realizes that her life, and the lives of those around her, were never what they seemed. Her family, once thought to be ordinary, reveals layers of secrecy and divine connections that Ahmaya hadn’t even imagined. The tree at her grandma’s home, once just an oddity, becomes a portal—leading her to uncover the hidden world of divine protectors and sacred duty. But the true twist comes when Ahmaya is suddenly transported back in time, to 1935. There, she encounters key figures from the past—people who she recognizes from her present life in 2025. These connections run deeper than she could ever have imagined. As she uncovers the truth about her past and the role she plays in the eternal cycle of life, love, and protection, Ahmaya’s heart and spirit awaken to the divine purpose that was always waiting for her. In this tangled web of time, Ahmaya must navigate both her earthly and mystical realms, discovering her true identity, embracing her divine mission, and forming bonds with the very people who shaped her destiny in both the past and present. With newfound strength and understanding, Ahmaya steps into the role she was always meant to play—the guardian of a sacred truth that spans across generations. ………………… A/N:Cover art is an original piece created by the author.

In a world fractured by ancient crystal magic, three races once reigned: Humans, Elves, and Vampires. Each held a sacred crystal — a relic of unspeakable power, capable of summoning divine spirits or rewriting fate itself. Centuries ago, the Vampire King Kalidor led a failed war and was cast into the abyss of eternal torment. His body perished… but his soul endured. Now, after hundreds of years, Kalidor returns — not as a man, but as a wandering spirit, drawn back to his ruined castle by the last remnants of the Vampire Crystal he once bound to his blood. To reclaim his throne, Kalidor must recover his body piece by piece, solving arcane riddles, facing spectral guardians, and surviving the very horrors he once commanded. But the deeper he descends into the castle’s secrets, the more he begins to forget who he truly was. He gains his strength… but loses his identity. With each limb regained, with each echo of memory restored, the question grows louder: What use is a body… when the name behind it is lost? Castle of Lumania: Lord of Lumania is the first volume of the Crystal Trilogy, a gothic epic of undead kings, forgotten wars, and the price of resurrection.

In a forgotten corner of the world, where myths are hidden under flesh and shadows whisper ancient truths, a cursed boy awakens to a reality far darker than death. Ruhan Ahmed is haunted not by ghosts, but by memories that feel older than time. In the quiet corners of Bhola, where reality shivers beneath the surface, he begins to sense it—a call from the darkness, a whisper of a forgotten truth. What begins as a descent into loneliness soon becomes a journey through dreamlike fear, soul-fracturing silence, and visions soaked in blood. The world around him starts to twist, and Ruhan finds himself clutching at pieces of a past he does not remember and a destiny he never asked for. A war brews in the unseen—between dragon-kin and cursed blood, between ancient powers and human souls. And at its center lies Ruhan, who must walk a path into the heart of the darkness… guided only by pain, mystery, and the fragments of something once sacred.

He liked simple life but the simple life rejected him. Not every thing was simple but at least it wasn't as hard as trying to walk a newly born baby. "Why is it all so damn lovingly SCREWED?" The Raging Phoenix company is an entertainment company?!! Nah! that's the most deadly joke I have heard.

Ludwig is a broken man with no way of being fixed, thus, he suffered a contamination that could turn him into a beast if left contained. His only way to fix this is to become an experimental subject and to reveal his fate to the world.

Mandy Morgan thought she had her life figured out—until it all shattered. Working as a competent manager at Vienna Suites in Owerri, Nigeria, Mandy carries the scars of a previous relationship that nearly destroyed her. Lonely yet guarded, she finds unexpected solace in a mysterious online connection with Jayson Anderson, a dark, alluring man who quickly consumes her heart and mind. What starts as a few flirtatious chats soon morphs into something deeper and dangerously intoxicating. Jayson is everything Mandy never thought she needed—dominant, enigmatic, and emotionally elusive. Their late-night conversations become her escape, even as red flags begin to appear. Mandy’s heart overrules her reason. She knows he’s not offering commitment, yet she clings to the illusion that he might change. After two intense months, she travels to Abuja to meet him, and reality hits harder than expected. Jayson is charming in person, just as magnetic as his messages promised—but emotionally distant and cold when she needs him most. Their time together is passionate and unforgettable, yet every tender moment is followed by a wave of detachment. Upon returning to Owerri, Mandy begins to unravel. Jayson becomes less present, more absent, and painfully unreliable. Meanwhile, Nathan Hydes, a wealthy and kind-hearted executive she meets through work, begins to show interest in her. Nathan is everything Jayson is not—attentive, stable, patient. But Mandy is too emotionally entangled in her illusion to truly see him. As weeks pass, Jayson ghosts her, returns with weak apologies, then disappears again, leaving Mandy stuck in a painful limbo of hope and confusion. Her emotional decline becomes visible at work. Rumors among staff about inappropriate affairs trigger Mandy’s fierce sense of professionalism, and she begins to assert control—but inside, she's crumbling. With Christmas around the corner, Mandy’s best friend Hazel arrives from abroad and immediately notices her friend’s decline. Hazel becomes the voice of truth, urging Mandy to wake up and see Jayson for who he really is—a fantasy, a carefully crafted illusion of love. Slowly, Mandy is forced to confront the painful truth: her relationship with Jayson was never real—it was all desire, not devotion. Heartbroken and disillusioned, she begins the long journey toward healing. Even when Nathan expresses his love and offers her a fresh start, Mandy isn’t ready. She’s broken, confused, and lost. But she knows one thing for sure—she has to choose herself this time. My Illusion – Part One is a raw, emotionally gripping dark romance that explores the pain of loving someone who never truly loved you, and the struggle of reclaiming yourself after being consumed by false hope. It’s a haunting journey of desire, deception, and the slow, painful path toward self-discovery.
