The Dark Knight Returns Edit

Kai Blackthorn was once the most feared villain in the world, known as the Dark Emperor. But when a dimensional calamity threatened to destroy Earth, he fought alongside the heroes to save humanity. After the war, he became even stronger than the original hero, eventually growing so powerful that he killed Vorthak, a god from another dimension who controlled the dungeon gates connected to Earth. However, gods have allies. In revenge for Vorthak's death, Zephyros, the God of Storms, hunted down Kai and killed him after an epic seven-day battle. But death wasn't the end. Kai awakens in the body of Lucas Gray, a weak and constantly bullied 16-year-old student at the Hunter Academy. This frail body is the complete opposite of his previous powerful form - Lucas is an F-rank student with barely any mana and pathetic physical abilities. The catch? Kai retains all his memories, combat experience, and most importantly, his immense power. The problem is that this weak body can't handle even a fraction of his true strength without being destroyed. Now Kai must carefully rebuild his strength from the ground up, using his centuries of knowledge and secretly accessing items from his dimensional storage. He has to train Lucas Gray's body to gradually handle more power while navigating academy life, dealing with bullies like Jake Morrison, and slowly climbing the ranking system from F-rank upward. But this is more than just a comeback story. Kai suspects there's a deeper reason for his reincarnation, especially as new dungeons appear faster than ever before. Something big is coming, and he needs to regain his full power before it's too late. Armed with god-slaying techniques trapped in a teenager's body, Kai begins his journey to show the world that even the weakest student can become the strongest hunter - if they have the right experience and determination.

Up north, there’s nothing but snow, emptiness, and a silence that’s lasted fifteen thousand years. Up north, there’s nothing but death… and ancient beings that never died off because they refuse to. Just sittin’ there, sprawled across the ruins of a kingdom that once thrived long, long ago. And even after all that time, even though the world’s moved on and everyone’s forgotten… they still whisper about him that tyrant they called the Fallen Angel, the one locked away in the frost of the North, frozen stiff beneath his pitiful armour. But now… He’s waking up again. Back on his feet. Got no clue who he is—or what he once was. And so, he walks the same path he walked before. Right over the bones of millions… bones that were once lives, blood, and tragedy. Because now his will is his own again. *"Chapter updates every Thursday and Monday"* Yes, here is very important.

NO-HAREM! Discord: https://discord.gg/cr2KvAPwEm *** Raelis Varekan was born into royalty but treated like trash. With 0% bloodline purity, he was branded a failure, framed for treason, and executed without a second thought. But despite his expectations, he had come back to the time he was twelve years old, standing in front of the same bloodline testing orb. But this time, something changed. His former 0% bloodline purity was gone, replaced by a 1% result. And with it came something no one else could see: a system that let him grow stronger. [Ding!] [+1% Bloodline Purity] [Total Bloodline Purity: 2% (Ash)] [Next Bloodline Rank at 10% Purity: Ember] With the future burned into his memory and a strange system tracking his growth, Raelis wouldn't make the same mistakes twice. He would become strong and he would use every tool he had to survive the academy and outmaneuver his siblings and the nobles who once betrayed him. And most importantly... Raelis would rise through the ranks and become the one who rewrites the Varekan Empire’s history.

--WSA 2025 ENTRY-- Revian Corvus, the last scion of a fallen noble bloodline, clawed his way into the University of Velmira—a legendary academy where all his ancestors once stood. But in a world where worth is defined by magic, Revian is granted the weakest ability ever recorded: Float. A power so useless it’s considered a joke throughout the entire kingdom. Mocked by classmates and ignored by mentors, he was sentenced to a school year in Class F, a motley crew filled with the weakest fighters in the entire campus. With this, Revian faces a future of obscurity—unless he can uncover the hidden truth behind his laughable gift... and turn humiliation into legend.

Raze Cromwell was one who had suffered his entire life. A cruel upbringing that had forced his nature to turn sour. In order to survive, he did everything and anything he could, eventually giving him the name Dark Magus. A title that was only given to the very best of mages. “Everything in this world was taken from me, So I shall take everything from the world.” The five Supreme Magus had gathered to eliminate the great Raze, on his last legs, the Dark Magus had one more trick up his sleeve. Activating a forbidden spell, he finds himself living in another world, a world full of martial artists. A world where one could destroy mountain tops with their fist, but Magic still exists in the new world, and he’s the only one that knows about it. **** Note: Raze Cromwell is a character who briefly appears in My vampire system. (For 2 Chapters) There is no need to read My vampire system. Since this story is based on Raze before he became what he was in vampire system.

All Bella ever desired was love, but her eyes only saw bone-chilling coldness until the day she was dragged into the depths of hell. Why? Because she wasn't the heroine of that so-called 'fairy tale'. Her fate was even crueler than she could imagine, described in a few lines written in an old book. A book that was written by some higher beings for their own entertainment, but they tossed it aside after just one cycle, not caring about the crumbling world within. After repeatedly reading the lines that depicted her death, Bella finally realized her bitter reality. Perhaps, if she went back death was the only ending... but instead of sorrow, a crazy glint shone in her emotionless eyes. After all, she had already died many times in the hellish place she entered a long, long time ago. "It's not a big deal to die once more, right?" In the midst of the pitch-black darkness seeping through the cracks in the sky, a beautiful silhouette swimming in a pool of water looked at her with knitted brows, showing dissatisfaction at her comment. He extended his hand and pinched her nose with a sigh. "Why do you always think of the worst?" A faint blush appeared on his cheeks when her previously emotionless eyes turned into crescents, peering at him playfully. "You-!" Alas, before he could finish his sentence, a warm hand grabbed his wrist and yanked him out of the water into a tight embrace. A deep exhale brushed against his pale skin as Bella nuzzled her nose against the crook of his neck with a satisfied expression. "If you give me a kiss, I won't say it anymore." A giggle escaped her lips when the man in her arms froze, his exposed neck turning a brilliant shade of crimson. 'How cute.' ------------- ------------- This story revolves around lots of characters as they discover their cruel reality. There are many supernatural beings and magical realms.

In later times, whenever people spoke of that galaxy, they would always mention its guardian—and the identity of the guardian’s descendant, the so-called “Devourer.” But all of it began in the distant past, in an era of chaos when the inhabitants of the planet were still at war with one another, a time when an ancient catastrophe seemed to be returning—when a young girl forged a pact with the one who would one day become the guardian.

In a world governed by Fate Threads—mystical forces that shape destiny—the heroes are blessed and the villains doomed. But what if the villain refuses to play his part? Damon Vael, once known as the Calamity Prince of the Nether Void Empire, was betrayed and destroyed by fate itself. Reincarnated into the Mortal Realm as the adoptive son of a minor sect elder, Damon awakens with fragmented memories—and a dangerous new power: the ability to see and manipulate the Threads of Fate. Destined to become the villain yet again, Damon decides to sever the ties of destiny itself. With every “Heaven’s Chosen” hero rising around him, he twists their fates, steals their fortunes, and turns their trusted allies into his own. But fate is no longer silent. Ancient powers stir. The Celestial Sects hunt him. The very heavens brand him a curse to be eradicated. As past enemies are reborn and new dangers rise, Damon walks a bloody path—not to save the world, but to burn the chains of destiny and carve a future that belongs to him. He is no hero. He is the villain who chose to defy Heaven.

His blade delivers not vengeance, but judgment. But this life is different. Whispers of old memories begin to surface. Shadows of forgotten lives claw at his mind. And something stirs within the heavens themselves—a fear that their perfect weapon may one day turn his blade against them. Bound by karma, haunted by glimpses of his past, and hunted by those who fear the justice he brings, Auren must face the one enemy he never could before: fate itself. This is his reckoning. This is his curse. This is his legend. “Freed from mortal coil.

A noble Princess had taken her mother's mantle in order to uphold peace between the two races so humanity could co-exist with their fellow demons in a kingdom without strife, but war paved the road to peace in blood and such path is but a fragile thread awaiting to be ignited by the flames of hatred. Another great war awaits, but will she be able to avert it? Second iteration of the Knight's Fate saga chronologically speaking. Yes I'm starting from the second because the first was an utter failure when I tried to write it, it just didn't fit the mood of a fantasy novel unlike this one. Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.
