Tyrese’s journey began in the shadows of loss and solitude, an orphan navigating a world indifferent to his pain. Yet destiny had far greater plans. He was chosen to rise as one of the pillars of creation—a transformation not granted through mercy, but forged through trials steeped in shadow and revelation. It all began with a single entity, present at the dawn of existence and destined to endure until its end. Or perhaps it began the day Tyrese unearthed the forbidden book. Perhaps earlier. Perhaps later. One truth persists: Tyrese’s story is woven into the very fabric of creation, entwined with despair, and illuminated by the unyielding mysteries of the universe.

Aiden, a 17-year-old human warlock, was once an ordinary boy living in the mortal realm, juggling part-time jobs to support his terminally ill mother. Her last words to him, “Promise me you’ll live. Don’t let this darkness consume you. You… you deserve happiness,” became a haunting echo in his mind after her passing were a plea he couldn’t fulfill. Aimless and broken, Aiden drifted through life, living off his mother’s death insurance, spending his days in solitude, and feeling the weight of purposelessness crushing him. But life took a cruel turn, and somehow, Aiden found himself in Hell—a realm of hybrids, power struggles, and unimaginable horrors. Struggling to survive in a world where humans are seen as weak, Aiden is thrust into the company of Lilith Maltrix, the golden-haired, horned heiress of the illustrious and feared Maltrix family. Arrogant, cunning, and brimming with talent, Lilith commands the academy with an aura of untouchable power. Her immense influence, derived from her family’s dominance in Hell’s economy and politics, keeps rivals at bay. Yet, despite her own ambitions and countless admirers, Lilith chooses Aiden as her peculiar companion—a decision that baffles and infuriates the academy’s student body. The academy is a brutal proving ground for Hell’s elite and misfits, where power is everything, alliances are fleeting, and survival often depends on cruelty. Here, Aiden is forced to participate in absurd and often grotesque competitions, such as being paraded as Lilith’s "rarest treasure" to advance her family’s business schemes. Despite his protests and unease, Aiden adapts to the cruelty around him, though he clings to his mother’s dying wish to resist being consumed by the darkness. As the story unfolds, Aiden finds himself entangled in Hell’s political machinations, where nobles vie for power, war looms on the horizon, and rivalries threaten even Lilith’s supremacy. Despite her popularity and unrivaled status, Lilith has her share of enemies who are eager to see her fall. Meanwhile, Aiden wrestles with his humanity in a world that sees him as an oddity—both a curiosity and a tool to be used. In the backdrop of carnage, comedy, and chaos, Aiden and Lilith’s unconventional relationship evolves. Through their twisted bond, Aiden begins to uncover a deeper truth about Hell, its society, and the struggles of those who live there. Together, they navigate a realm where even the smallest act of kindness is a rarity, and survival often means becoming the very monster you fear. This is a tale of resilience, dark humor, and an unlikely friendship forged in the depths of Hell—a story that asks what it truly means to live, even when surrounded by darkness.

For as long as Reon could remember, his life had been a monotonous cycle of solitude. A loner to the core, he buried himself in his studies and part-time jobs just to get by. No family. No friends. No joy. No sorrow. Just an empty existence. But fate had other plans. Reon suddenly found himself transmigrated into the world of a novel he had read, all because of a complaint about the Protagonist. However, he wasn’t reborn as the protagonist, a powerful supporting character or even a notable figure. No, fate had saddled him with the most pitiful role imaginable: A Villain! No, he wasn’t the villain who sparked fear to everyone or the rival who challenged the protagonist’s growth. No, he was that guy—the one who gets a single line of dialogue before being obliterated, his only purpose to highlight the hero’s strength. The kind of character readers would roll their eyes at and skip over without a second thought. Yes, he had become that kind of background character—cannon fodder, a disposable pawn, a nameless lackey serving under a third-rate villain! The worst kind of cliché—a spineless dog for a spoiled young master from a powerful family, wagging his tail at every order. The one whose destiny was to be manipulated and die a dog's death long before the main story even began. How could fate be so cruel? So petty?! But Reon wasn’t about to accept this. Not again. This time he wasn’t the Reon who had wasted away his first life. A world once confined to the pages of a novel had become his reality—a realm where strength commands respect, and the weak are trampled underfoot like insignificant ants. If this world wanted him to live like a dog and die like a stepping stone, it was dead wrong. This time, Reon resolved to live life to the fullest—to fight, to laugh, to love, to revel in the chaos of this fantasy world filled with magic, swords, and cultivation. No one would stop him from seizing his happiness. Not Fate. Not the so-called Protagonists. Not even Heaven itself. And if anyone dared to stand in his way? He would break the rules, exploit the extras, manipulate the main characters, and twist the very fabric of the story to serve his own ends. He would plunder the opportunities meant for the protagonist, destroy threats before they could rise, and rewrite his destiny with his own hands—whatever it took to carve out his path to survive. Would the main characters suffer? Who cares? Would the story change? Even better. This time, he would live without regrets. A glass of wine in one hand, a woman in the other, and unshakable strength beneath his feet. That was the plan… until the system arrived. . . . [Ding! The Host has awakened the Heaven Plundering System! If the host wishes to survive in this world, he must kill Heaven’s Child.] . . . WHAAT! . . . --------------------WARNING------------------- . . . . If you prefer a dense, shy, beta, submissive protagonist, then this novel is not for you. Here, the main character will be Domineering, Ruthless, Calm, Intelligent, Cunning, and Alpha-type—caring only for his loved ones while remaining cold toward the rest of the world. Additionally, female leads will be Strong, Intelligent, and Loyal—not merely waiting for the main character to come and rescue them like a fairytale prince. The harem in this story will be large, with each member being capable and equally important to the plot. Every character will have their own significance and development, contributing meaningfully to the story. . . . NO NTR!! NO YURI!! NO FUTA!! NO YAOI!! . . . [There will be smut scenes in later chapters, it will be marked as (R-18) beside the headline. Minors, please exercise caution.] . . . °°°°The story will unfold at a slower pace, so I encourage fellow Daoists to be patient and support me on this journey. If you have any suggestions or ideas, feel free to share them in the comments. I will consider adding them if I find them truly good.°°°°

In a world where power and identity are tied to the mastery of a single elemental force, the community of Solarys thrives on balance and tradition. Here, every family is bound to one of the six elements: fire, water, earth, air, lightening and metal. The abilities of each child are revealed at birth, etched into their palms as sacred symbols. Yet, anyone who dares to wield more than one element is considered an abomination a threat to the very fabric of their existence. Jeremy, born into a powerless family on the outskirts of society, is a quiet outcast with no apparent destiny.

Her birth defies the laws of their world and exposes the fragile peace of Solarys to cracks that cannot be ignored. As Jeremy grows older, his own powers begin to awaken in secret—an astonishing ability to wield all six elements, something thought impossible.

But when a mysterious rogue sect called the Aetherbound Council rises to seize control of the realm’s most powerful artifact, the Heart of the Aether, the balance of the elements—and the fate of the world—rests on Jeremy’s shoulders. Guided by cryptic prophecies, ancient trials, and a reluctant band of allies, Jeremy embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind his abilities. Along the way, he faces spectral guardians, the enigmatic alchemist Azarial Vehris, and visions of a dark future where his powers become a curse. As his bond with the elements grows, Jeremy must decide whether to embrace his destiny as the Master of the Six Elements or risk losing everything he holds dear. Master of the Six Elements is a tale of courage, self-discovery, and the price of defying tradition. Jeremy’s journey will challenge the boundaries of power, redefine the meaning of family, and determine the future of a realm teetering on the brink of chaos.

In the vast Nazare Blade Empire, ruled with an iron hand by Emperor Groa Aratat, there existed eight princes, each striving for recognition and power. Among them was Josh Aratat, the most obscure and least acknowledged of the emperor’s sons. Born of a mother who passed away when he was just a child, Josh grew up in the shadows of his more celebrated brothers, his heart burdened with loss and his life marked by solitude. One fateful day, Emperor Groa decreed a challenge: each of his sons was to venture into separate regions of the empire, conquer them, and win the loyalty of their people. The prince who demonstrated the greatest strength, strategy, and ability to amass supporters would be crowned the imperial prince—the heir to the throne. The empire buzzed with speculation. Most believed the title would go to the mighty firstborn, Balek Aratat, renowned for his unparalleled strength. Others placed their bets on the cunning second-born, Jaden Aratat, or the skilled third-born, Gerard Aratat. Few gave any thought to the younger sons, particularly the sixth to eighth—Josh included. In their eyes, he was merely a shadow, unworthy of mention in the race for the throne. But everything changed when Josh encountered a dying man, condemned to execution for the crime of stealing bread. Wracked with despair and tired of his own existence, Josh made a startling decision—he offered to take the man’s place, embracing what he thought would be his end. Yet, in an unexpected twist of fate, death did not claim him. Instead, Josh emerged from the ordeal with a newfound power—an extraordinary ability granted as a result of his selfless act. This gift would not only alter the course of his life but also shake the foundations of the Nazare Blade Empire and the world beyond.

At its epicenter are dragons—majestic beings desired for their scales, organs, and prized eggs. The most coveted treasure of all is a dragon's name, a key that holds the power to control its very existence. Dragon Lord, guardian of a clutch of dormant eggs, lives in isolation atop a hill, surrounded by a forest that veils his castle. He bears the scars of past betrayals, having been deceived by those who feigned love to steal his treasures or claim his head as a bounty. Jaded and cold, he trusts no one, living a solitary existence. However, his solitude is shattered when a woman unwittingly stumbles into his life. Yara finds herself in Dragon Lord's treasured den amidst a battle between the dragon and thieves. In a twist of fate, she mistakenly bonds with the dormant eggs, breathing life into them. Reluctantly, Dragon Lord allows Yara into his world, and their journey unfolds amid the looming threat of underground organizations seeking to exploit the dragons for profit. As the eggs come to life, so does an unexpected connection between Dragon Lord and Yara. Despite his cold and jaded exterior, he finds himself unable to ignore her presence. Yara, too, cannot deny the pull she feels towards him, and emotions begin to burn beneath the surface. Together, they must navigate the challenges of waiting for the eggs to hatch, fend off those who seek to exploit the dragon and its offspring, and confront the secrets that Yara harbors—a revelation that could destroy everything. In this tale of flames and gold, two scarred souls in a world where trust is a rare and precious commodity must confront the ghosts of their pasts. They navigate the dangerous currents of love and deception, protecting unborn dragons from a world hungry for their magic. Will their bond withstand the trials ahead, or will the flames of betrayal engulf them in the end?

The world of Aquilora is ancient, its history simmering with countless secrets. Our story begins thousands of years after the great Corruption Wars—a conflict that nearly wiped out the planet—has finally subsided. All thanks to the seven great heroes, who secretly hail from another world, and rose to power now ruling the world as gods. Yet, despite their efforts, corruption and contamination still linger on the edges of civilization, often emerging without warning. To combat the corruption, one must gain power, level up, and ascend through the higher realms. With multitudes of followers, a chosen few may be graced with a needle by the Emperor himself, allowing them to rule as sovereigns, spreading his will across the contaminated lands and corrupt life forms, bringing order to a world slowly healing. But falter, and one is left a mere follower, living in the shadow of others' power. This is a world for the strong. Many will rise, some will fall, and a few will seek to burn it all to the ground. One of the gods is dead, and another is missing. Something sinister brews within this empire that thrives on desire. In the midst of this struggle, a child, with origins as strange as the gods themselves, is born to a family bound by an oath older than the empire itself—an oath so twisted by time that it has cast the family into an eerie solitude. This child may very well tip the balance of the world, or they too may fall victim to the desires of others.
