'What is this?' Theodore thought as he opened his little eyes to what he assumes to be one of his parents who is dropping him off on the doorstep of a church at what seemed to be in the middle of nowhere, ---a few hours ago ago--- Theodore was like any other normal person: had a family, had dreams, filled with ambitiouns, liked games, sometimes goes outside, has preferences, filled with desire, and of course went through a difficult time in his life, he was just as normal as the average person is. but one thing he is different from others is that he likes roasting people online especially the rich, he loves making fake accounts just to meme people, judge thier preferences and give rating for their every day (unnecessary) objects, he even makes money from it by making videos about how stupid some rich people are. But that led him to his death when he was kidnapped by a rich woman, who he had made fun of... '???' He didn't know what happened after that... --- [Somewhere in a different time]--- 'Where am I?' he asked as he tries to move his head and eyes uncoordinated, there were noticeable things to hint where he was currently at; the church was styled like it was described from a dark fantasy book, the sky was clear with a few clouds roaming in the sky as the light of dawn hits them, and his parent who looked like a literal angel, '....they seemed to be speaking..." "....to think my offspring looked... Normal, even though you're mother is a human and I, Michael... am an angel... So shouldn't you be a €i@n¥?" The angel asked the infant, only to be replied with cooing, "Oh... Who am I kidding? You're just an infant, how can you even understand..... goodbye Little David" the angel said as he spans his wings wide, knocked on the church's door before he flew from the ground and vanished between the rays of dawn ——17——Years——Later—— 'Hmm', looking back at the moment, David sighed in his stupidity for realizing something that he should've considered, "Well I was very afraid and shaken from being reincarnated, so I really can't truly blame myself for not realizing.... Right?" He asked, seemingly into the air [No, from what I can see, the fault was totally on you] the voice of the male siri that suddenly replied to him "Well fuck you, this wasn't supposed to be my problem, I'm just a defect Nephilim, not someone who asked to be a hero!"

"Oh my God, tell me this is a dream. Let me wake up quickly!" After waking up, Adams realized that he had transmigrated to a magical world where different species engaged in battle and humans could become cultivators. This magical world was at war all year long, resulting in resources becoming extremely limited. Even powerful cultivators were often famished and had to fight on empty stomachs. In this world, all humans had to attend a coming-of-age ceremony as soon as they turned twenty years old. It was a mandatory adulthood ritual where they would be teleported to an alternate realm where other species lived. Only by completing their missions in those realms and scoring well could they become cultivators and inherit the legacy of powerful sorcerers or warriors. Adams' coming-of-age ceremony did not kick off to a good start. He nearly starved to death in the cold. Fortunately, at the eleventh hour, he activated the Super Hint System! Now, he could rise up in the world! Precious items, the Achilles heel of Zergs, treasures hidden deep underground… The Super Hint System was like a GPS that provided Adams with all kinds of hints! With the help of the system, Adams, who started his cultivation, could easily master all sorts of martial arts techniques and spells. He could also produce a variety of equipment and potions. While other cultivators were still treasure hunting or training hard to improve their skills, Adams' abilities were improving at an astonishing speed. Gradually, he would become a powerful cultivator who could rule over others!

His magnificently beautiful eyes looked into mine with possessiveness. I exhaled out a shuddered breath, and he grabbed my jaw. “This is not who you are to me, Isabella. And I want more than what we have. Understood?” The dominance in his tone was obvious, while his words sounded like a fantasy I’ve always dreamt of. More than what we have. More than step-brother. ______________________________ I, a 19-year-old girl, had always had a secret crush on someone I shouldn’t have. That’s right—it was none other than Achilles Roman, my stepbrother, who was two years older than me. I had kept my feelings dumped in a Tupperware box for as long as I could remember. But how could I control myself when he himself started making moves on me? And what should I do when I realize that he was nowhere near the Achilles I thought I knew? Read to find out.

A deal was made during the New Years Celebration. Contract signed and bond made. Others see me as his irreplaceable past, present, and future but in reality, he is just being lazy. Others say that I am his Achilles heel but in reality, he is too indifferent and cold to even have one. *sigh* Dear Others, whoever you may be. Don't expect too much from this humble creature. I am rich and beautiful. He is excellent and handsome. Two capable individuals do not always end as a power couple you know.
