In an era where gods have vanished, Affinity Users have risen to become the ruling force of the world. Fate, calamity, ocean, life… Powers of various inclinations intertwine and clash, shaping the future of this planet. Mo Ying—a mysterious girl—joins an equally enigmatic mercenary group. Her arrival is destined to stir the tides, and her story marks the beginning of an epic. Yet beneath the surging waves, a grand conspiracy quietly brews. As the world edges toward the abyss of destruction, how can humanity break free from the shackles of fate and find a path to survival?

Tanasma, a breathtaking planet where the harmony of magic and technology thrives side by side, giving birth to civilizations that stand in stark contrast to one another. Yet, this very contrast has made conflict an unending cycle, a storm that never truly settles. For as long as history remembers, Tanasma has been a battlefield of ideologies, where heroes and villains alike have risen and fallen, their ambitions either fueling the flames of war or extinguished before they could leave a mark. Some fight for justice, some for power, and others merely to survive—but in the end, so many perish without meaning, their names lost to the sands of time. What does it all amount to? Is war truly inevitable? Is peace nothing but a fleeting dream, crushed under the weight of unyielding beliefs? Or is it the boundless ego of mankind that dooms the world to an endless cycle of bloodshed?

In a world where magic has existed since the dawn of civilization, humanity was never alone in its conquest of power. With the rise of ancient magic came the evolution of mystical beasts, celestial beings, and unknown forces that shaped the destiny of countless worlds beyond the reach of mortal eyes. Empires have risen and fallen. Kings and tyrants have waged wars for dominance. And yet, the true rulers of existence remain hidden, their influence stretching across the stars, bound by a power older than time itself. Legends speak of an existence beyond comprehension, a force destined to reshape the world. Some call him a savior, others a destroyer. But history has long buried the truth… And then—he appeared. A boy with no kingdom, no throne. A name unknown to history. Yet with every step he takes, the very fabric of fate trembles. Vasudev was never meant to be ordinary. He was never meant to walk an easy path. From the moment he set foot into this vast world, fate had already set its gaze upon him. But in a world where strength dictates survival, where forgotten legends whisper from the shadows, and where unseen forces pull the strings of destiny… what role does he truly play? When the weight of an empire falls upon his shoulders, when the echoes of ancient wars resurface, when enemies beyond imagination emerge from the darkness—will Vasudev rise above them all? Or will he simply become another forgotten name in history? The war between light and darkness has already begun. But the real question is—which side is the truth? Step into a world where fate is an illusion, history is a lie, and power is the only truth. The Infinite Emperor awaits…

And a System that allows him to devour the spiritual energy of others. Will that be enough? Join me on this epic journey to find out!

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.

The Earth had been swallowed. Absorbed by the new world, an infinite ocean dotted with continents stretching as far as the eye could see. Humanity found itself thrust into this place, left to fend for itself in hostile lands teeming with creatures and civilizations from multiple origins, ripped from their own realities. Where the Earth once stood, another world took its place. Then another. And another. The cycle had begun. Each conquered world was duplicated, absorbed in turn, fueling the inexorable expansion of this endless domain. An unknown force wove this network of universes, engulfing everything in its path. Ages passed. What remained of humanity? Feared remnants. Captured by the Tower of Chaos, which had risen without warning. On the continent of Winet, the first earth to have been absorbed, the landscape had transformed. Once dominated by humans, only one thing remained of their reign: the Tower, immense and menacing. It had taken the strongest. Those who had not fallen under its yoke were now a scattered group, too insignificant to weigh in on history. To the new inhabitants of Winet, they had become rare creatures, objects of desire and fascination. Symbols of wealth and power, they were held captive, weakened, carefully studied to prevent the awakening of their potential. And it’s in this delightful chaos that I, Mana, find myself working. Enslaved by beings even more terrifying than myself, I’m condemned to watch the world descend into carnage, to dig through past ages for stories worth telling. Really, what a mess.

Forge and Glass is a journey of transformation, where Alaric, a young man with untapped potential, begins his quest as a raw, unshaped soul. His journey is a crucible, much like the process of forging metal in fire—burning away impurities, refining the core, and molding it into something strong, beautiful, and purposeful. The challenges Alaric faces are not just physical but spiritual, testing him to the limits of his mind, body, and soul. In a world where fire and glass hold opposing meanings—fire symbolizing strength and perseverance, glass representing fragility and truth—Alaric must learn to balance both extremes within himself. He discovers that the true alchemy of life lies in embracing the tension between strength and vulnerability. Through the trials, lessons, and betrayals he endures, he learns that his true power is found not by avoiding the cracks but by understanding and embracing them. Like a glassmaker shaping fragile material into something beautiful and resilient, Alaric’s journey becomes a process of self-discovery and deep personal growth. He faces hardships that shatter his perception of the world, only to rebuild himself with a clearer, wiser understanding of who he is and what he is capable of. His story is an invitation for readers to reflect on their own paths—how we are all shaped by the challenges we face, how moments of fragility can reveal our greatest strengths, and how the process of self-transformation is often a painful but necessary step towards achieving our fullest potential. Forge and Glass is more than just a story of overcoming trials—it’s a profound exploration of the human spirit. It asks: What happens when we embrace our imperfections? What becomes possible when we stop hiding our brokenness and instead let it reveal our deepest wisdom? This book will inspire anyone who has ever faced adversity, found themselves shattered, and risen from the ashes stronger and more self-aware.

After years of intense conflicts between his guild, Hellscape, and the guild of his former infidel lover, Darkrow, things came to a head when Draco conquered all.
