"Where should I go now?", he sighed. Naoki Ozawa had always considered himself "lost" and devoid of a "reason to live" after the death of his mother. Ironically, it was that lack of purpose and desire that had made him cross the realm of a universe that needed those two in order to survive and become stronger. Out of all the worlds in that universe, he was transported to the world of Zenia, a world dominated by women, where the supreme deity despises men and had not blessed them with much world energy and great aptitude. In this realm, where the soul is the foundation of strength, feeding on other souls in order to be powerful is commonplace. A place where might makes right and the weak are left behind with little to no opportunities. He soon finds out that he's not strong and is pathetically weak, unable to even beat the weakest monster. However, he later saw that he possessed a strange talent—the ability to comprehend souls. In a world of medieval fantasy x cultivation, we follow the story of Naoki as he finds his way into a universe unbeknownst to his own. 》 ART: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1D8kp2S5pwOxTgE-vR2bkH7DTlDLlBBJ_?usp=sharing 》For mobile Webnovel users: bit.ly/RoT_Art ✥ Author's Words: 【After, multiple considerations, I will be writing 1000 words instead of 3000 words per chapter from volume 2 onwards :3.

Due to the calamity that would befall her, the prophets of old sealed her powers right from the days of her predecessors, to protect her. The awakening of her powers attracted the attention of the ‘Dark Souls’ the ancient enemies who were the same group of powerful mages that wiped out Sato Naoki’s powerful clan. The Dark Souls were as heartless as their powers got, and they will not hesitate to take down the threats to their ultimate goal. However, when they met with resistance, they began to toil with the hearts of their prey, leaving them with difficult choices to make.

Elementary school student Naoki Kikuchi killed his step dad because he beat him everyday. His best friend Ryo Makino never thought Naoki did anything like that. Ninomae police caught Naoki and the court gave him 5 years reformatory. He continued his study from there and after released from the reformatory he admited a high school in Ninomae. In his first year of high school, he met with his elementary school's best friend Ryo and met to many people. He talked to less, his classmate first thought he is a dumb. I'm not my past tells the tale of Naoki & his honest attempts to redeem himself, all while being continually haunted by the shadows of his past.

In a world known as Avalonia, there is an entity without physical form, that has sown chaos throughout all of civilization. How it operates and what its end goals are, is a mystery to anyone. One day this entity would choose Naoki Rhein as its next play thing. It granted Naoki powers that he could only dream of. This occurrence, however, would attract all kinds of nefarious people down his path, leading to death and destruction of what he holds dear. His goal is to stop those people from doing exactly that. Not long after being granted powers, he would meet the teacher Yasmin, who had her own history with the unknown entity. This entity had caused her great grievances throughout her past and because of that, she will assist him in stopping the chaos that's affecting everyone around Naoki. During their journeys, they would discover the true nature of the unknown entity and what it had done in the past. Their discoveries would lead them towards unveiling the oldest mysteries of their world.

The last thing Naoki needed was to get himself killed—especially on the last day of his final year in highschool. But the craziest part about all of this is that he wakes up five years into the past. Not only that, but he can't remember anything before he woke up. Determined to found out more, he sets on a quest to change this future and find the man who murdered him.

Naoki Ryuga was someone who's potential was soon to run dry, not like he had any true potential to begin with. Especially in a world where monsters threaten the very survival of the human race, someone with potential as pathetic as his own were nothing more than fodder and a complete laughingstock. However, all of that was going to change as he soon finds his fate intertwined with a certain system. With it, he'll rise to become the most powerful individual in this world and beyond!

Hacia el Centauro y lo irrevelable del cosmos, la mente humana es por lejos el objeto más complejo del universo. En Última Centauri un amalgama mágico es colapsado dentro de la vida diaria de tres jóvenes de tres nacionalidades distintas con circunstancias muy diferentes el uno del otro. Solo cuando la metempsicosis se da y la Trifulca es creada, las mentes de Mutrick, Elizabeth y Naoki se fusionan en una conexión más allá del plano existencial, haciendo de la diversidad una verdadera unidad. Al tiempo que los tres se ven obligados adaptarse a sus nuevos cuerpos y a buscar una salida para cuan peculiar situación, un mal de otro mundo los asecha a cada paso que dan, haciendo necesaria la emancipación de lo cotidiano y viendo por sobre el germen del bien propio. ¿Será la Centauri más compleja del universo capaz lidiar con lo sobrenatural? En una época donde las minorías no son aceptadas y la libertad escasea fuera de la música del Nuevo Mundo, la unión será lo único que sea capaz de ponerle un alto al fuego del odio social, después de todo, no hay nada más sublime para la demencia que un buen trago de vehemencia.
