Dissidia Opera Omnia

supreme overlord of all realms

When the heavens collapsed, he laughed. When the gods wept, he slapped them. And when the world begged for balance, he brought chaos wrapped in harmony. Born with a Divine System that rewards him not for strength—but for disrupting the status quo, Tianming begins his journey as a mere cultivator with a heretical thought: > “What if music and silence… were lovers, not rivals?” In a realm torn between the celestial harmonies of the Holy Music Goddess Aria and the void-born doctrines of the Goddess of Silence, Nihila, Tianming rises as the bridge—and the weapon—between both. Armed with the Echoing Silence Blade, forged from their own divine essences, Tianming builds more than kingdoms: He builds a paradox empire—where fallen angels compose opera, battle monks farm floating citadels, and divine entities argue over who gets to warm his bed... or destroy him. But as he gathers a harem of goddesses, forges divine cultivation paths, and face-slaps arrogant immortals, a forgotten terror awakens: > The Goddess of Unheard Screams—a being erased from all history—has heard the first note of her return. Now Tianming must navigate divine politics, cultural warfare, and sensual sabotage—all while growing stronger through irony, disruption… and laughter. --- Genre: Xianxia | Fantasy | Cultivation | Comedy | Harem | Empire-Building | Martial Arts | Mythical Romance Tags: Overpowered MC, Face-Slapping, System, Gods, Divine Harem, Kingdoms & Empires, Magic, Immortality, Humor --- Would you like a shorter promotional blurb for platform banners, or a longer version that introduces the main heroines and system mechanics in more detail?

MASTERPIECE OF RUIN

The room was thick with the smell of wine. January 2025, Aezren leaned against the couch with wine in his hand, His eyes red like the sun during an eclipse, while his hair a chaotic Blonde framed his face with eerie elegance, hoping not to be disturbed by the screams of people. He was the Grim Reaper and the cause of people’s misfortunes, so it was only natural that he was embraced by screams day and night. Without a moment’s notice, he heard another person cursing him. “Not this again…” he groaned as he got up. He sipped his wine as he watched the drunk woman cursing him from the reflection on his wine. Lavinia stood on the parapet wall with high heels, ready to fall at any moment. Her red lipstick messed up, her skin a shade of bright olive, her hair had faded black hair dye, her eyes a shade of deep green, reminiscent of the forest. Her movements came out unstable as she screamed out, “Seems like all doom is attracted to me!” she laughed, tears rolled down her face. “I’m really not,” Aezren scoffed as he rolled his eyes. His eyes blew into saucers at a closer look at her face. “That face, it’s her!” he exclaimed. “I can’t let her die,” he pleaded with desperation as his “heart” raced. Aezren put his glass of wine back on the table with telekinesis as he stood up and teleported to Lavinia. However, it was already too late and she jumped off. Aezren jumped off of the terrace and held her in his arms as he floated in the air. He quickly took her back to the terrace before anybody could notice. Lavinia shut her eyes tight, hoping for the worst to happen—her death. She opened her eyes soon after she realized that she was on solid ground. “What is it,” she smiled, “Am I in heaven or hell?” she walked as she wondered. She was in her own world. “You’re in none,” Aezren told her, about to crash out at her obliviousness. But of course, she was half rat — drunk as hell. He let out a deep sigh. She didn’t listen. He recited some sort of spell, his index and middle finger pointed at her. Since alcohol has similar affects to being dead, it was easy enough for him to get her to be sober. She blinked in surprise. “Wh…Who are you?” she stammered, taking steps back defensively. “Be my muse.” He asked her. He has been searching for a her for over 4 centuries now. Having been living for so long, he has started making paintings to pass time. He has her face like a fuzzy faded painting in his head, and he has always struggled to capture her in his paintings. Finding her was a dream come true for him. She couldn’t die. Not before he painted her. Lavinia’s breath hitched. She was hit with nausea and dizziness. “Please.. please leave me alone!” She begged, her voice came out louder than she wanted it to. Aezren stared at her, his expression unreadable. “I didn’t save you because I care about your life,” he said, voice low. “I saved you because you have a face that doesn’t belong to this era.” Lavinia’s breath hitched again, her head spinning, “What the hell does that even mean…?” “I’ve seen you before. In dreams, in sketches, in brush strokes I never finished.” He sighed, “Centuries of searching. And suddenly, you’re on a rooftop, yelling about doom like some half-broken opera.” “You’re insane,” she whispered, backing away. He didn’t argue. “Probably,” he said with a shrug. “But I don’t care what you believe. You’re here. And I need to paint you before you disappear again.” Lavinia blinked, confusion and fear wrestling inside her. But something about him—his tone, his posture, the weird mix of detachment and obsession—made her pause. Her stomach flipped. The room still spun, but she wasn’t sure if it was just the wine anymore. “Okay,” she said slowly, swallowing hard. TW: Might include topics or references to Self harm.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Ambition

Legend of the Galactic Heroes Vol. 2: Ambition continues the grand space opera saga of two interstellar superpowers—the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance—as they clash in politics, war, and ideology. After the devastating Battle of Amlitzer, the Free Planets Alliance reels from massive losses. Amid this chaos, Admiral Yang Wen-li, a reluctant hero and strategic genius, is appointed commander of the crucial Iserlohn Fortress. Though he has no love for war and dreams of retiring as a historian, Yang becomes a key figure in preventing the Alliance’s collapse. On the other side, Reinhard von Lohengramm, the ambitious young admiral of the Galactic Empire, begins consolidating power. Seeking to destroy the entrenched aristocracy and unify the Empire under his control, he engineers a plot to destabilize the Alliance from within. Reinhard manipulates a disgraced Alliance general, Arthur Lynch, to spark a coup d’état, distracting the Alliance while Reinhard prepares for civil war against the Empire’s old nobility. As tensions rise, Yang suspects Reinhard’s involvement but struggles against the Alliance’s incompetent political leadership and the influence of growing fanatical movements like the Earth Cult. Meanwhile, both sides are forced to confront internal divisions that threaten to be as dangerous as their external enemies. This volume explores themes of ambition, corruption, and the fragility of democratic ideals, contrasting Reinhard’s authoritarian reformism with Yang’s defense of flawed democracy. As new conspiracies unfold, both men edge closer to an inevitable confrontation—one shaped more by their philosophies than by firepower alone.

The Phantom of the Opera and His Beast Tamer

“When the prey becomes the beast tamer, who is truly in control of this deadly game?” In the smog-filled 19th century, Leona is forced to wear the mask of a "boy" and hides within the freak show of a circus. She thought her only crisis was the fear of her gender being exposed, until she found a "mad dog": - He is covered in scars but uses chains to fight back against his abusers; - His eyes are cold and menacing, yet he curls up at the foot of her bed at night; - He says, "I will kill you," yet slaughters those who dare to watch her. "This is not redemption, it is symbiosis." When Leona awakens him with the cold-hearted choice of "using strong acid to unlock the key," the gears of fate have already crushed all escape routes. He rips off his disguise, revealing his disfigured face, yet she only responds with, "Shall we collaborate? I'll help you overthrow this hell." "Love is the poison that corrodes reason, and he is willing to drink the poison to quench his thirst." On the tightrope of the circus, she is the only one daring enough to dance with him as his "beast tamer"; In the secret dungeon, he is the "watcher" who carves through walls for her. Until the lies are exposed— "You are my brother," she says with a smile to her pursuer. Breathing suddenly becomes heavy in the darkness, as he tightens his grip on her neck, his voice hoarse: "Sister, you taught me how to kill, but now you think you can tame me with a single sentence?" "Warning: This is not a fairy tale, but a game of identity between hunter and prey." He digs up a grave, holding her "corpse" in madness; She pulls the trigger with a smile, asking, "Now, who is the mad one?"

Organza: O Fio Invisível de Tudo

A manhã na Organza Alimentos tinha um ritmo peculiar. Não era o tipo de ritmo frenético e impessoal das grandes indústrias, mas sim uma espécie de fluxo constante de pequenas ações, de coisas sendo feitas aos poucos, mas sempre com uma sensação de que algo maior estava prestes a acontecer. O trabalho era meticuloso, e por isso ninguém questionava o andamento, mas havia uma tensão subjacente, como se todos soubessem que algo estava fora de lugar, embora ninguém conseguisse definir o que exatamente. Henrique, o responsável pelo Marketing, sempre sabia como trazer um toque de humanidade para o ambiente. Era ele quem lembrava os aniversários, quem fazia playlists para o expediente e quem, com seu olhar atento, conseguia perceber as pequenas coisas que passavam despercebidas para os outros. "Isso dá música", ele dizia sempre, independentemente do que fosse. Para ele, o trabalho na Organza não era apenas sobre números ou produção, mas sobre o que se podia fazer com as pequenas falhas, os erros, e como eles poderiam se transformar em algo bonito. Mas nem todos estavam tão tranquilos. Phil, o gestor comercial dos vendedores externos, vinha de grandes empresas, com toda sua bagagem corporativa, e viu na Organza um desafio. Ele sabia que o ambiente era mais solto, mais fluido, mas isso também significava que havia mais espaço para o erro. Seu olhar atento não perdia um detalhe, mas ele ainda estava aprendendo a lidar com o "caos" da Organza, onde tudo parecia acontecer ao mesmo tempo, e nada parecia ter um fim definitivo. No laboratório, Josy e Luke estavam trabalhando na criação de novos produtos. Josy, com sua energia criativa, sempre tentando algo novo, e Luke, mais cauteloso, equilibrava a impulsividade dela com um olhar mais técnico. No entanto, sempre que uma nova ideia surgia, ambos se viam confrontados com uma lembrança silenciosa de Marina, a ex-responsável pelo laboratório. Marina havia sido uma figura fundamental para eles, alguém que sabia exatamente quando puxar o freio e quando acelerar. Agora, com sua partida, havia um vácuo difícil de preencher. No andar de cima, Michael, o gerente geral, tentava manter as coisas leves. Seu humor, sempre pronto a soltar uma piada, buscava descontrair o ambiente. Mas havia algo em seu jeito de agir que começava a levantar suspeitas. No começo, seus erros eram pequenos, quase invisíveis, como algo que todos poderiam ignorar. Mas, com o tempo, eles começaram a se acumular. As falhas nas tarefas, as decisões questionáveis e os detalhes que ele deixava escapar... tudo isso estava se tornando algo grande demais para ser ignorado. No entanto, como sempre, Michael conseguia suavizar as tensões com uma piada, fazendo com que as coisas continuassem aparentemente normais. Na parte industrial, Rick, o comprador industrial, passava os dias rodeado de planilhas e números. Ele se queixava constantemente, reclamando de tudo — do trabalho, da gestão, da carga de produção. Seu comportamento era instável, e sua atitude muitas vezes deixava a desejar. Mas, por alguma razão, ninguém parecia conseguir realmente vê-lo como alguém que poderia causar problemas. Seu melhor amigo, Augusto, o responsável pelo Planejamento e Controle da Produção, era o oposto. Jovem, cheio de energia, e sempre com respostas claras e precisas, ele mantinha a operação sob controle. Juntos, Rick e Augusto formavam uma dupla improvável, mas eficaz, com Augusto sempre tentando manter Rick focado e organizado, enquanto ele se deixava levar pelas reclamações do amigo. E havia os personagens da expedição — Enersto, Alemão e Mark. Eles estavam sempre prontos para qualquer tarefa, mas sua natureza pragmática e silenciosa os tornava distantes do núcleo da empresa. Eles trabalhavam duro, sem questionar, mas também sem se envolver muito nas questões mais complicadas que estavam acontecendo nos bastidores. Apesar de todos estarem ocupados, ninguém conseguia negar o crescente desconforto no ar. Havia algo acontecendo na Organz

Nope! I can't be the Villainess and Definitely not Male Lead's Mother!

So, I woke up on the day I was supposed to be executed. You know, normal Tuesday stuff. My head was chilling on a wooden platform, and there was this tiny blade dangling right above my neck. Cute, right? Just waiting to slice through and end my fantastic life. Naturally, I thought, "How do I get out of this mess?" And what genius idea came to mind? Pregnancy! Yep, I faked a pregnancy. And not just any pregnancy — I told the Emperor, the very psycho who ordered my execution, that I was carrying his child. Spoiler alert: I was definitely not. But hey, it worked! I kept my head attached to my body. However, when the universe is determined to mess with you, even a fake baby bump can't save you forever. I kept up the act for a whole month before finally running away. Ah, freedom! No more psycho Emperor, no more looming execution, just me, living my best fake-pregnancy-free life, laughing like I was finally out of a bad soap opera. Or so I thought. Because of course, luck had to have the last laugh. Somehow, I ended up being the mother of the male lead. You heard that right. The male lead. In this ridiculous story, I’m not even his real mother, but here I am, stuck inside the palace with a literal murderer, aka the Emperor, who — plot twist! — killed the male lead’s actual mom and turned her into a freaking energy crystal. And now, I'm supposed to save the day. Me, the villainess who's not even supposed to be here. How? No clue. But one thing’s for sure, luck and I need to have a serious talk. Screw you, luck!
