Ash Saves His Hometown

A life of luxury, indulgence, and effortless privilege shatters in a single evening when a sharp, brutal truth cuts through the golden facade. A young heir, drowning in his own mediocrity, faces the unthinkable—rejection from the one person he thought he could hold onto. Stripped of his comfort and adoration, he spirals into the darkest corners of his mind, where despair wrestles with a strange, burning determination. Haunted by the weight of his past and driven by an almost self-destructive hunger for transformation, he abandons the empire he was born to inherit and vanishes into a world that forces him to confront the man he has become. There, among unfamiliar faces and grueling struggles, he begins to rebuild himself, reshaping every flaw and failure into an arsenal of precision and control. But the past has a way of finding you, no matter how far you run. When duty drags him back to the family and the life he swore to leave behind, he must navigate a labyrinth of old wounds, cold betrayals, and a love that feels more like a curse. In the relentless pursuit of redemption—or revenge—he discovers that some chains are impossible to break, and the price of reinvention is far steeper than he ever imagined. This is a story about power, obsession, and the unyielding pull of a man’s desire to escape himself. Or perhaps, to destroy himself in the process. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

"D" for dark, "D" for depth, "D"... for death. It demanded no attachment, and Daemon sacrificed love for it. Years later, the death of his teammates made him feel that he had done enough for the country, so he came back to the city he grew in. But can what has been forsaken be gained back? Because now Evelyn, the one to have breathed vitality in his numb, orphaned heart, had her own life, and a little boy calling her mother.

Duncan Abnomar was transmigrated to a magical world. Most of the lands of the world had sunken, and the surviving humans could only live on islands.

The island city-states and the fleets challenging the sea have become the only lights of civilization left, while the shadows of old days still lurk in the deep sea, waiting to devour this dying world again. But for the new captain, there's only one pressing question – Does anyone know how to sail this damn ship?!"

Because who, honestly, wouldn't have bet on a good demon invasion every few hundred years? Although, to be fair, this time the causes are much clearer. Man always finds new ways to destroy himself.

Let me ask you a question: who said that magic was reserved for muscular and dramatic warriors? No, my friends, true salvation, this time, doesn't come from paper, scrolls, and the patience of a genius, but from hunger, fear, and the will not to give up on your fate.

H-how is that possible?" Corpses of many warriors were scattered, as I was standing proudly on top of the Plague Dragon. It took me more than enough time kill this creature. I lost many things.

A peaceful life without any bloodshed, that’s the only dream left for Mr. Kim, a former gangster. Using his savings, he bought a nice apartment and started running a small bookstore. As everything seemed to be going smoothly, he met a high schooler named Ah Yeon, the one who was destined to turn his peaceful life upside down. Learning about her background and feeling pity for the child, who been suffering from abuse and bullying, he offered her a job at his bookstore. Over time, they grew closer, almost like family. Reading was her hobby, and because of that, she often recommended novels to him. One of those novels was 'The Death Note'—a romantic yet revenge-filled story, full of kidnapping, abuse, killing, mafia... and it all revolved around three main characters. Initially uninterested, he picked it up on a boring day. When she saw him reading the novel, she asked him a curious question. “From the main three characters, who would you save, if you ever got the chance?” “No one…” he replied without much thought. “What? Why?” “How can someone save a fictional character? Use your brain.” “I know it’s just a story; that’s why I’m asking as if. What if we transmigrate to another world and get the chance? If I could, I would save the villain. He is just like me..." Her eyes reflected sorrow as she said it. Few days later, news reached to Mr. Kim that the girl had committed suicide after murdering her stepfather. That day, for some reasons he kept the book with him, but the next day, he was dumbfounded to find himself in the body of a young girl who had been tortured terribly.

Few years later, his peaceful life got an unexpected turn when he met him, the villain, Ah Yuan. He reminded him of Ah Yeon. From the depths of his heart, Kim wished to save him.

Ashes Reborn For five years, I was a ghost, condemned to the shadows by the people I trusted most. My brother, Murat, framed me for a crime I didn’t commit, stealing my freedom and my legacy. My wife, Leyla, abandoned me, choosing to believe his lies and sealing our bond with betrayal when she married him. They destroyed me, but they underestimated my resolve. In the depths of that prison, I was reborn. Iskender Yilmaz ceased to exist, replaced by Ali Demir—a man of wealth, power, and relentless determination. With a new face, a new name, and a heart hardened by betrayal, I returned to Istanbul, no longer the man they knew, but the reckoning they deserved. I infiltrated their lives as Ali, weaving myself into the cracks of their perfect facade. Murat, so blinded by his own arrogance, never saw his empire crumbling beneath him. Leyla, torn between the life she built on lies and the truth she could no longer deny, found solace in the stranger I had become. But vengeance is not without its cost. As I dismantled Murat's world piece by piece, I was forced to confront my own pain, my love for a woman who betrayed me, and the man I had become in my pursuit of justice. Ashes Reborn is my story—a tale of betrayal and vengeance, yes, but also of redemption. It is a testament to the fire within us all, the one that destroys but also rebuilds. I am Ali Demir, and this is how I rose from the ashes.
