On his 10th birthday, Ren is celebrated as a hero — the chosen one blessed with unmatched power to protect the world from the monsters spilling out of dungeons. Yet, as the nations join forces to train and guide him, they see him only as a weapon to wield, a pawn in a dangerous game of power. Taken from his home, Ren is trained under the iron hands of foreign nations, wielding his strength to shield lands he barely knows. When he finally fulfills his purpose and grows into the most powerful hero the world has ever known, he’s betrayed by the very nations he fought for, and, in their quest for dominance, they destroy the kingdom of Arden, his birthplace, and his heart. In the moments before he dies, struck down by a forbidden weapon, Ren vows revenge. But fate grants him something more powerful than vengeance — a second chance. Awakening in his childhood body mere days before his hero’s ceremony, Ren now has all the knowledge, skill, and power from his former life and a new purpose. This time, he will refuse their shackles, forge his own path, and raise Arden to greatness. As he trains in secret, Ren allies himself with his childhood friends, the two princesses of Arden, Elara and Selene, who are both loyal to him and now central to his heart and mission. Together, they plot to outwit the nations that once betrayed him, strengthening Arden’s defenses and building allies among those who stand in the shadows. With a growing network of spies, newfound strength, and a burning desire for justice, Ren sets his sights on reclaiming control of his destiny and protecting his kingdom from those who would see it fall. His mission is clear: take revenge, save his kingdom, and claim the throne — becoming not just a hero, but the hero king Arden needs.

Discord Link for those interested [https://discord.gg/TGc9yymDJP] One may think that in order to be a Hero you must have a pure soul, and untainted heart, but in reality such a thing is impossible; now one's soul is pure, nor is anyone's heart untainted, Gods aren't even exempt from this rule. No, a True Hero is someone who knows they have an impure soul and tainted heart, yet they embrace it, instead of attempting to deny their very nature; however, not all True Heros are the same, some have different beliefs and/or ideals. Yet at the end of the day, no matter how terrible or bleak the situation looks, you can always count on a True Hero to act as a beacon of light that'll show you the correct path, but for you to take, you must embark on it yourself.

Those caught outside in the mist are the first to fall, and the terror quickly spreads.

As Ashlynn confronts her worst fears, she discovers an unexpected strength within herself. But with the mist pressing in closer, time is running out. Every day becomes a fight to hold onto her humanity and find a way to escape the grip of the mist before it claims everything she holds dear.

Kai, an unmotivated Otaku, spends his days and nights lost in the world of anime, barely connecting with reality. His latest obsession, Eldren’s Wrath, is a dark fantasy series that explores themes of power, loyalty, and sacrifice in a world of fearsome creatures and relentless warriors. One fateful night, he dies unexpectedly while halfway through the series, only to awaken in its universe—reincarnated as a lowly, unremarkable NPC merchant in a rugged, hostile village on the outskirts of civilization. It doesn’t take long for Kai to realize he’s hopelessly out of place. Surrounded by adventurers, knights, and monsters straight from Eldren’s Wrath, he knows his days are numbered unless he finds a way to gain strength quickly. Just when despair sets in, a mysterious System activates, presenting him with a harsh ultimatum: level up every day or face relentless penalties. The penalties range from losing his meager resources to physical punishments, with each missed requirement bringing him closer to a permanent death. Reluctantly forced into grueling training regimens, Kai must now engage in daily quests, battle deadly creatures, and learn combat techniques. As he grows, he discovers that the System tracks his achievements through "Protagonist Points," hinting that if he collects enough, he may unlock the rare “Protagonist Rank.” Reaching this rank is the key to returning to his original world, but it requires him to embrace challenges worthy of a hero. Twist: Every action Kai takes towards becoming a hero brings him closer to the fate of the series’ true protagonist, with whom he shares a mysterious connection. To truly earn his “Protagonist Rank,” Kai must not only surpass the original hero of Eldren’s Wrath but also unravel a prophecy that foresees a dark force linked to his past life. As his abilities grow, so do his responsibilities, ultimately pushing Kai to confront his deepest fears, forge alliances, and embrace his role in a world he once dismissed as fantasy. Now, his lazy days are behind him as he battles for survival, allies, and the ultimate prize: a way back home. But will he still want to return when the time comes, or will he find a reason to stay in this world he once admired from afar?

"Shall I tell you a little secret? But I have to warn you, you won't like it." No one likes spoilers, therefore, I present this to you. "Is it a book filled with spoilers or a book specifically about spoilers?" Read between the lines, that is what you do when you are eager to find out. To figure out a secret, to interpret and keep note of what there is to come. "It is kind of like that, but I would rather refer to it as a compilation or a series." "Or an outline, a note, reminder for what'll end up happening, whatever feels right to you." A story that has only one plot, universe, and meaning is not how you would describe this one. Spoiler though, you'll never be satisfied. /Extra/ "One more thing... None of this is real. Unless you know what exactly is going on."

Also, since I've just started, I know the quality is very poor but I promise that it will improve overtime so please bear with me.

A young Seeker, Drepo, battles to protect his city from a horde of monstrous creatures that have emerged from the depths of the sea. As he fights the Halmaw, he uncovers a sinister plot that threatens the very existence of his world.

A young man who was a slave for as long as he remembers finally gets set free into the world by a powerful devil as her servant. As named by her, he took Hades as a name and a way of life. As her hellhound unleashed on the world, she gave him a contract. The more he sacrifices for her, the more power she will grant him. What to expect? The world of Alseria is a ruthless world so don’t expect people to be just after power or be evil for the sake of evil. Each villain I wrote has a legitimate reason for his action, and by legitimate I mean something good. The MC: He isn’t a good guy neither he is evil. He just wants to get by, and occasionally ends up causing a disaster. His sense of morality isn’t like other people’s due to his upbringing and this story is about him trying to be normal. The MC Powers: He has abilities granted to him by the system, not magic. Even though magic exists and is prominent in the world, our MC doesn’t have the patience to sit and learn it. By the end game, he will have a total of ten powerful abilities (Which are addressed in the ten-chapter prologue) I decided to take the HP, MP, and SP from the system concept since they aren’t good indicators of physical capabilities. Instead, I exchanged them for visual indicators, like if the MC is stabbed in the chest, his health is probably too low to stand. I will keep a review so you can contact me easily.
