First Appearance Of Black Adam

In the shadows of a city ruled by death, assassins make pacts with beings beyond comprehension—trading their humanity for power. Kain Drayce was one of the best. A ghost. A killer without equal. Until the ones he trusted turned against him. Now, with a bounty on his head and the weight of a blood oath binding his soul, Kain walks a path of vengeance. But something stirs beneath the surface—an abyss calling his name. His enemies fear the man he was. They should fear what he’s becoming. The hunt has begun.

"The situation has turned dire," he said. "Hasn't it always been?" she replied. ... The world is undergoing rapid changes, and various species can participate in value games to gain supernatural intelligence. Li Changzhou, along with his sister and girlfriend, try hard to survive in this dangerous world.

Gotham is ruled by Clad Belmont—a man powerful enough to defeat the infamous Jack the Reaper and seize control of the city. "What if there’s someone out there even stronger than Jack the Reaper? What will you do then, Belmont?" But when a mysterious new threat emerges, determined to erase Belmont’s legacy, the city spirals into chaos. "I'm Jaxon." "I don’t know where the hell you came from, kid, but this is Gotham. If you want to stay alive, keep your head down and don’t draw attention to yourself." Jaxon, a boy with no past, arrives in Gotham just as the city prepares to unveil a statue in Belmont’s honor. When the event is attacked, he’s faced with a choice: stay in the shadows or step into the light. "If I don’t do something, all these people are going to die right in front of me." As a masked vigilante rises, whispers spread—Jack the Reaper may have returned. "Who the hell is this Black Mask? I want him eliminated immediately." But if Jack the Reaper is truly back… then who is Black Mask? "Gotham, eh? So this is where you’ve been hiding all this time, Jaxon. Well then… it’s time I paid my student a visit." "Impossible." "I’m telling you, sir—Jack the Reaper is back in Gotham."

I don’t remember being born. None of us do. We wake up at twenty, fully grown, with knowledge implanted in our minds, a communicator fused to our wrist, and a role already assigned. We don’t have childhoods. We have purpose. Or so they tell us. I was a Sparta operative, one of the enforcers of order in this world built from the ashes of war. The hard-fought war between species. A war long forgotten. My job was simple: track down illegal activity, eliminate threats, and keep the system stable. Stability, they said, was everything. But that illusion shattered the day I found him. A Zen Zero Clone. The original prototype. I understood one thing. Maybe everything we knew was not the truth. Maybe there was something which escaped our understanding…… The ones who lived in the Outer Worlds, where the radiation should have killed them, where the Council said no life could exist. The ones who had real children, not just another iteration of themselves, but something new. Something free. Now, I’m running. Chased by the very system I once protected. Hunted by the ones who erased my past and shaped my future. I’ve seen the truth, and they know it.

The fate of the world hangs in balance as monsters and villains go on rampage day after day. But when all hope seemed to be lost,some brave souls stepped up. They are called HEROES. After an unexplainable phenomenon,about 80% of the Earth's population began to manifest strange abilities and with that also came the monsters. Some use their powers to stop the rampaging monsters as well as maintain justice whereas others use theirs for selfish ambitions. A young Orphan teenager named Adam Cole who was born without an ability of his own and yet has always aspired to become a pro hero would often get bullied and mocked,and even his Uncle,one of the few relatives he has left treats him like garbage was always abusive towards him. Miraculously,this guy is granted a system ability from an interdimentional ghost and is now able to chase his dream again.

Space is vast, unfathomable—an ocean of shadows where humanity has advanced without understanding what lurks in its depths. Twenty-two years ago, a planet appeared out of nowhere. It was on no star map. It had no orbit, no light, no signs of life. Yet, it pulsed. Now, the ship Astraea-7 is on its way to meet it. The mission is clear. The crew knows why they are there. All except one. Haruto never asked to be part of this exploration. But his presence is no coincidence. He is the key—though he does not know it yet. As the ship crosses the planet’s threshold, signals distort, communication breaks, and the silence is filled with something else. Then, it happens. For the first time in human history, the abyss answers. And in the depths of the shadow, a voice whispers: “Welcome home.” Thus begins Haruto’s journey of self-discovery, where he will uncover the echoes of a forgotten past and the shadow of a future he has yet to understand.

Now he lives in a single-room apartment, he is making barely any money; he has no friends, no family, and no lover. He is all alone living a pathetic, miserable life. He is so pathetic that he died in his own apartment, slipping on a beer bottle. But fate has other plans for him. He didn't die but ended up back in the past with an upgraded body. Now, with another chance in life, he is determined to strive for greatness. ____________________ A/N - This is a smut-focused story. Expect a lot of sexual scenes.

The human being is above all beautiful, divine and surprising. But there is in its essence an evil that surpasses even the understanding of God.

When monsters sprouted from suddenly appearing towers all over the world, the world leaders created an organization of skilled warriors to tackle this problem. The warriors compromised of awakened humans; people who had gotten skills similar to those in a video game. Unfortunately, not everyone was willing to join this attack force, so the world leaders implemented a lottery-system to fill out the ranks. A few years later, Evelyn’s twin sister was chosen via lottery to become a discoverer, but their biased parents forced Evelyn to go in her sister's stead, putting her in the line of danger. The only salvation was that her finance was also sent on the same mission. The mission was to conquer a new Boss floor, and they were to fight against a monster of unpresented might. What she hadn’t expected was that her fiancé would betray her, because of a plot he concocted together with her sister. The monster annihilated their whole team before they were finally able to defeat it, but her fiancé had no thoughts of letting her leave the tower. Stabbing her in the back, he leered over her as he explained their plan while she slowly bled to death. With the last of her life force, dead set on getting her revenge on the man she had promised her life with, she heals the boss monster in hopes that it will kill him. As she slowly closes her eyes, the world going dark around her, a notification from the system pops up. “ New class: Black healer Congratulations! You have completed the hidden legendary quest, healing an S-ranked monster on its last breath by sacrificing yourself. Your immensely caring heart should be an inspiration to all healers, both human and monsters! Not caring for the wounded’s different race and even sacrificing the last of your own life, you have been given a new chance at life. ” Waking up, she is now back three years before the battle took place. Her new life starts now!

As war engulfs the continent, Baronia clings to its crumbling empire, calling upon its youth to fight for a cause they barely understand. Among them is Hans Bergmann, a cadet indoctrinated into the ideals of the Reich but plagued by doubt and haunting visions of doom. When the Wilmenians breach Fortress Lake Caden, Hans and his comrades are thrown into battle with little more than outdated weapons and blind obedience. Alongside his best friend Peter Haber, he struggles to survive as their once-unshakable defenses collapse under the relentless assault of a superior enemy. As they retreat to Defensive Line Delta, Hans witnesses the true horrors of war—men torn apart by artillery, friends lost in the chaos, and commanders who would rather sacrifice them than admit defeat. Meanwhile, his nightmares grow more vivid, whispering of an inevitable reckoning. With the Wilmenians closing in and the war turning against them, Hans must make a choice: remain loyal to a doomed empire or carve his own path before it's too late. But in a world where survival is fleeting and betrayal is everywhere, the greatest enemy may not be across the battlefield—it may be the very nation he swore to protect.

Ken, a young man in search of power and fortune, finds himself facing a mysterious system that allows him to acquire any abilities he desires. Superhuman strength, enhanced intelligence, or mastery of specific skills... anything is possible. But there is a price to pay: the system demands real money for each temporary power it grants. No gift is free, and Ken must juggle his finances to take full advantage of the system. Ken has only one goal: to build a company larger than the Tenkai Group, a global conglomerate. But the path to domination is not without its risks. The system, far from being benevolent, imposes tough choices and sacrifices in exchange for powers. Each ability gained comes with its own price, and the race for money quickly becomes a struggle for control, survival, and power. With "Money First" as his motto, Ken is willing to do anything to succeed, even if it means going deeply into debt or manipulating those around him. The system, ruthless and unforgiving, has no intention of making things easy for him, and every financial or strategic decision may well be the one that determines his future.
