Lethality Caitlyn

Incense, thick and cloying as a shroud, mingled with the gritty tang of dust motes dancing in the erratic candlelight. Ari and Eric, twins sculpted from midnight itself, stood bathed in the flickering glow. Their stillness was a deceptive calm; a raw, ancient power thrummed between them, a silent pulse vibrating through the temple's aged stones. Ari tasted ash and iron – a familiar metallic bite. "Ready?" he rasped, his voice the scrape of granite. Eric's gaze, unwavering, snagged on the swirling shadows that licked at the temple's edges. The faintest whiff of blood – a spectral fingerprint of their heritage – clung to the air, a physical weight pressing against his ribs, a legacy etched into his very soul. The stone floor trembled. A shudder, visceral and deep, ran through the air itself, heavy with unseen energy. This wasn't legend; this was the Akin-Soul Style – a martial art forged in the fires of oppression, its movements as lethal as obsidian. Ten levels of cultivation – ten scars etched onto their flesh, each a testament to the pain that had shaped them into weapons. Ari, a coiled spring of controlled rage, moved with a predator’s grace. Yet, a flicker of doubt – a reflection of the prejudice that had dogged his life – shadowed his eyes. Eric, his brother's mirror image, stood in tense stillness, a volcano veiled in brooding calm. A subtle twitch in his jaw, knuckles bone-white, betrayed his inner turmoil. His protectiveness for Ari was a tangible force. *“They will not break us,”* he ground out, the words a low, steady reassurance, as much for himself as his brother. Outside, the night pressed in, a suffocating blanket pierced only by the malevolent gleam of eyes in the darkness. Their enemies – figures draped in shadow, skin the color of midnight, eyes burning with a hatred stoked by the regime that sought to extinguish the Akin-Soul Style – waited. The political landscape was a treacherous mire of deceit and whispered betrayals. Every shadow held a threat; every smile, a hidden blade. But this wasn't a fight for power. This was a fight for survival, for the right to exist, for the reclamation of their birthright. This was rebellion, a bloody reckoning against a world determined to erase them. This was the storm, the fury, the awakening of the Akin-Soul.

On the other side of the game, Yan Changxin—daughter of a powerful Northern Di statesman—plays a dangerous tune beneath her demure facade. Gifted, calculating, and burdened by secrets, she becomes entangled in a deadly political dance where loyalty is a luxury and survival a gamble. As war brews and empires collide, three hearts are set on a collision course of betrayal, forbidden love, and vengeance. In a world ruled by power and poison, can love ever be more than a weakness? A tale of deadly beauty, hidden daggers, and the cost of freedom.

'My dear emperor...I am your worst Nightmare.' ____________________________________________________ I had everything in my life. A good career as a rising actor, popularity, beauty and I was the brightest student in my class. I didn't think that I would die at the age of 23 and lose my lucky life because of a sudden car crash. Yes...I died...but you see, life took a fateful twist that day. I transmigrated. But the problem is, I transmigrated into my least favorite novel. This is a novel where the male lead follows infernal magic and rules over the realm while collecting wives for his harem. It's a trashy stallion novel called 'Warlord: The Gilded Fate' but it should've been called 'Warlord: The Gilded Harem' instead. And to make matters worse, I have become the villain who imprisons the male lead and tortures him for fun. I have become the spoiled prince: Bai Yulan...a character who dies a painful death at the hands of the male lead. He dies in the first half of the novel and he can't even defend himself because he's too weak. But now, there's an exception. I have the ability to write my own plotline and be a powerful immortal instead of dying tragically...again. I won't be a scum character. I'll hug the male lead's thighs and pamper him so that I can survive in this ridiculous novel. And in the meantime, I will improve my powers and be a high-ranking immortal. My new life's goal is simple: be a terrifying young master and be untouchable. Maybe I will be able to surpass the male lead and be the new protagonist. Wow! What A New Twist! But why is the male lead starting to show some interest in me? Maybe it's to punish me...or worse...kill me! Either way, I must level up and be the top player in this world. Yulan: You are no competition to me. My sword techniques are powerful enough to overthrow you. I am lethal so I wouldn't dare to come any closer if I were you. Zhanying: You Do Not Frighten Me. And I only came here with one request. I want to see your famous sword dance. Yulan: . . . (This Jerk wants to humiliate me...) I will defeat you! Be prepared to face my fury. Zhanying: you're not scary at all Little Kitten. Yulan: ... LITTLE KITTEN?! ... * The cover art does not belong to me. All credits go to the creator of the art.*

"Get off me!" Tessa gasped, struggling beneath Vernon's broad frame. His dark eyes gleamed with something unreadable—a hunger, a craving. When he didn’t move, panic surged through her, and she screamed. His hand shot out, wrapping around her throat, his grip unyielding. A breathless gasp tore from her lips. "You can't run from me, Peach." His voice was silk and steel, lethal in its promise. "I own you." — Tessa had lost everything—her home, her wealth, her love. The man she once adored, Tamlin, had not only betrayed her but stripped her of everything she owned, tossing her aside like she meant nothing. Heartbroken. Weak. Shattered. And then, things got worse. Tamlin didn’t just ruin her—he sold her. As collateral. Now, she belonged to the devil himself—Vernon Carter. Cold. Dominant. Cruel. A man who didn’t know the meaning of mercy. But if Vernon thought she would break, he was wrong. Tessa wanted vengeance. She wanted Tamlin to suffer. And to do that, she needed power. Wealth. Someone more ruthless than Tamlin ever was. Vernon was the perfect pawn. She made up her mind. She would seduce him. Make him crave her. Make him hers. But what happens when the hunter becomes the hunted? When Vernon discovers her true intentions—and the game of love and revenge spirals into something far more dangerous?

She was once an elite assassin, feared for her cunning mind and lethal skills. After years of operating in the shadows as the infamous "White Fox," she finally allowed herself a rare break—a vacation in the comfort of her modern apartment. While relaxing in her own sanctuary, the familiar world she knew suddenly shattered when a mysterious system activated, pulling her away from everything she had known and transmigrating her into a bizarre new realm. She awakens in a land ruled by powerful beastmen, where females are rare and fiercely protected. Stripped of her modern tools yet still armed with a razor-sharp dagger and a mind honed by years of deadly work, she finds herself in a world where her survival depends on adapting quickly and completing missions given by her latent, mysterious system. Unlike the delicate women of this realm, she is ruthless, calculating, and a two-faced cold-hearted killer who will stop at nothing to conquer the challenges before her. As she tames savage beasts and navigates treacherous alliances, cryptic system texts echo in the back of her mind, urging her toward an unknown destiny. Yet, as rival forces rise and long-buried secrets resurface, an enigmatic power stirs deep within her—a power that even she does not fully understand. Amidst this chaotic world, she encounters powerful beastmen—each as dangerous as they are captivating. All wanted nothing but her. With the system's eerie commands marking her fate, if this new world seeks to control her, it will first have to survive her. When the system whispered her name, a strange sensation filled her. [Nyxaria Duneveil, the main mission has been initiated.] She felt a sudden chill creep down her spine, an odd familiarity tugging at the edges of her mind. "Nyx..aria... Duneveil? No, that's not my name… or is it? Why does it feel so strange… familiar, yet unfamiliar at the same time? If it's not my name, then... what is my name?" In this unfamiliar world, where nothing felt like home, her own name became a haze to her—like a puzzle missing a crucial piece. It gnawed at her, leaving her with an inexplicable sense of discomfort, as though something vital about herself was just out of grasp. A fleeting memory danced just beyond her reach, like a whisper from a past she couldn't recall.

Reborn into his favorite, brutal novel, "Aethelgard's Echoes," Lucius Valerius di Corvino awakens not as the struggling protagonist, but as a privileged scion with a secret weapon: an overpowered System and knowledge of the dark future. In a modern world crackling with elemental powers and shadowed by corporate-noble intrigue, the prestigious Aethelgard Academy prepares to select its newest cohort through merciless duels. Lucius, gifted with the impossibly rare affinity for Light and cursed with memories of a world destined for chaos, must become colder, more ruthless than the villains he despised. With golden eyes reflecting a calculating mind, he'll manipulate allies, shatter rivals, and perhaps steal a heart or two along the way, all while carving his own path to absolute power. Forget destiny; Lucius is here to rewrite the echoes of Aethelgard, bathing the coming darkness in his own blinding, lethal light.

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.

With a broken core that can’t even light a campfire, he lives among the swamp’s refuse, cleaning up the magical crap the big shots toss without a second glance. That is, until a foul geyser and a junk-shop book—"How to Keep a Zoo at Home"—flip his luck in the most absurd way: a reverse portal that resurrects the ugly, weak creatures other Lords discarded as cannon fodder. His first summon is a warty anthropomorphic frog that spits in his face, and Renn, between curses and bitter laughs, fears he’s doomed to a "shitty zoo" forever. But when those forgotten scraps—frogs, banshees, medusas—start morphing into mythical goddesses of abysmal power and lethal beauty, the swamp turns into a battlefield the Lords will covet. Armed with explosive mud and a useless manual, Renn goes from "the stinker" to a Lord everyone wants to crush… or copy.
