Worthless Regression

The room falls silent. Adwait reflects on his mother's words and eventually decides to agree to remarry. He tells Aadharsh ji, "Tell mom I'm ready for the marriage, but remember, the woman will only be Anvi's mother and our family's daughter-in-law, nothing more." Meanwhile, in another house, Sangeeta ji scolds Sanskriti, "You're a curse! You lost your husband and now dare to show attitude here? You're just a servant, nothing more. Don't dare to show your tantrums." Sanskriti breaks down in tears, and Sudha ji comforts her, "Don't cry, child. Your tears are worthless here. Don't waste them." Sanskriti asks Sudha ji, "Maa, am I the reason for my husband's death? Am I the reason I'm a widow? I didn't choose to be a widow, did I? What's my mistake? Why does everyone blame me?" Sudha's heart aches, but she has no answers to soothe Sanskriti's pain. **********************************

[The Dawn Rising BOSS template has been bound. After testing, the original BOSS Blood Prison Greedy Wolf has died. The new BOSS template is being generated. Please wait....] Bai Yi: ??

"Before the towers fell, before everything was consumed by darkness..." Leo Astralis whispered to himself while traversing through the rubble of the ancient structure.

The MMORPG 'EVR' was released unexpectedly one day, along with its advanced equipment that allowed players to fully immerse themselves in the game, even though prior VR technology wasn't nearly as realistic. To prevent people from replacing their real lives with the game, the servers were shut down during the day and on weekends. I was the best at the game, but since I had no friends or family, I could only watch and bet on sports while waiting for the servers to reopen—until the day I died and regressed to a week before the game was released. I know everything that will happen in the game. I know the game is not just realistic; it's real. And for some reason, I don't need to log out! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a no-harem story (and probably no romance, either, but you never know). It starts off quickly after narrating unnecessary details, so I suggest reading at least a few chapters to get to the heart of the story.

Evelyn, a bullied omega who had nothing - not even a last name, was mated to the soon-to-be Alpha of the Blackmoon pack, who 'loved' her in return, despite her worthlessness. But when she thought that was the end of her miserable life, it became the start of a misery she never foresaw. “A worthless omega like her, with a lazy wolf that is always unconscious, does not deserve a talented genius, duo element wielder like Markkus,” they said. However, Markkus wanted her despite betraying her and shattering her heart into million pieces. Her body was a treasure trove - mating with her helps his cultivation, and makes him stronger. However, Markkus was doomed to fail from the day Alpha King, Lord Vladimir Kaelin, set his eyes on her. Vlad was cursed with erectile dysfunction for nearly a century, but when his body moved because of Evelyn's scent, she automatically became his chosen mate, snatching her from her undeserving mate. However, Evelyn didn't want to stay with him, but he had thousands of ways to make her come crawling to him for his protection and help. But things weren't going to be so easy for Vlad and Evelyn. Having a second chance mate came with a huge price to pay, one that would either change the continent forever, or destroy them both. ... Didn't they say that Evelyn was worthless and doesn't deserve a genius like Markkus? Why then are the most powerful Alphas around the continent begging her to marry them when she showed the world that she was the master of all elements? Didn't they say that her wolf was lazy and useless? Then, what is this beast that's about to attain immortality? Why is everyone worshipping it now? Ha! Markkus is begging her for a second chance, he even sacrificed his most precious cultivation base, wanting to become her gigolo and servant, but shouldn't Markkus ask Vlad if he's worthy to share his woman? Or is Markkus not aware of how possessive, protective, petty, and jealous Vlad could be?

But one day, a supernova struck their planet, making it uninhabitable for hundreds of thousands of years and killing almost all life on its surface.

So, let's follow the journey of Haku and his siblings, a journey that will take them across the world and beyond, against a fate that none of them is willing to accept.

Throughout history, Humans have strived for greatness, not only in name but in deeds as well, and many failed to achieve it.  It was no different in a Land of Dragons, Mythical beings, Knights, Mages, Demi-humans, and demonic beings. But their greatness came in a different form, a concept known as POWER.  The power to conquer, to build, to control, to protect, and to love.  Raffaelo Jun was a man born with a silver spoon, yet his sheltered upbringing prevented him from becoming the man he was meant to be.  He was unable to achieve the greatness of the prestigious family of the Jun household and became a sight of ridicule.  He was used for a while until he wasn't, then discarded and killed for being a threat to the throne, but Fate had other plans.  Reborn as a child, he starts over as the sole son of the Jun household, his actions brimming with intent.  He had one goal: attain the power that he once ignored and stand on the precipice of human existence, to protect all that are dear to him.  Note: It starts slowly until recent chapters.
