Priest Purgatory

Time is your lifeline. Lose it, and you die. Steal it, and you survive—maybe. After dying under mysterious circumstances, William Chandler, a master thief with a dark past, awakens in Purgatory, a twisted afterlife where survival is decided by a deadly System Guide. Here, time is the only currency. Every second you lose brings you closer to permanent erasure. And the rules? They're always changing. The only constant? Trust no one. Except William’s Guide is glitched. His abilities don’t make sense. His time doesn’t drain properly. And sometimes… it fights back. Even kills for him. But a glitch in the system doesn’t make him safe. It makes him a target. Thrown into deadly games like “Snakes and Ladders”, chased by man-eating plants, and hunted by people desperate to live another hour, William must navigate a world of lies, loopholes, and looming extinction — with only a broken system to rely on. And if he ever wants to uncover why he was really sent here, he’ll have to outwit the Game Master, the other players, and the system itself. --- Warning: This story contains psychological tension, survival horror elements, morally grey characters, and emotional moments that may ruin your night’s sleep.

Ari was the most useless priest in the kingdom, a man whose faith lay at the bottom of a wine jug and in the arms of the girls at "The Silk Rose." His life of sinning and absolving is shattered when his childhood love, the glorious Templar Captain Thalassa, returns to his life. A fateful accident in ancient ruins transforms the holy maiden into a Demon Queen and her best friend into a voluptuous Succubus. Trapped, terrified, and fearing the Church's purge, Ari offers them the only way out—a plan so shameless only he could have conceived it. "You're completely insane!" Thalassa said. "Marry you? Both of us?" "It's a terrible sacrifice, I know," Ari said, his voice trembling with a contained—and completely fake—emotion as his gaze drifted again, almost by accident, to Vespera's curves. "To give up my life of... of chastity and celibacy... for your safety. To bear the burden of having two impossibly beautiful and powerful wives..." His gaze, unseen by them, lost itself for a moment in the vivid memory of the naked hologram of Vespera that had appeared just minutes before. Oh, yes, he thought to himself, maintaining his martyred expression with award-winning conviction. The sacrifice... it's going to be tough. So tough. I'll have to endure it every day and every night. What a heavy cross I must bear. Thus begins the strange double life of a priest, his Demon Queen wife, and his other Succubus wife, as they try to manage a secret dungeon, keep up appearances in town, and, above all, survive their new and chaotic marriage.

Yan Rui was a famous actor — rich, proud, and used to being in control. One night, after filming a scene as a royal offering, he dies in a sudden accident… and wakes up in another world. Now, he’s kneeling in a real temple, tied up in red silk, surrounded by chanting priests — and facing Mo Jue, a powerful and dangerous snake demon. Mo Jue calls him “the offering.” But Yan Rui refuses to be anyone’s sacrifice. Trapped in a strange world of ancient empires, monsters, and deadly politics, Yan Rui must survive — and deal with the cold demon lord who watches him too closely. But the more they clash… the more something dangerous begins to grow between them.

Death is inevitable—unless you seize control of fate itself. Erasmus has never believed in gods. Faith is a tool, a system to manipulate, a currency to be spent. As a priest, he preaches salvation while quietly siphoning power, turning devotion into influence, and blind belief into wealth. But when the sky fractures and the world collapses into something unrecognizable, Erasmus finds himself trapped in a realm where logic is an illusion and the unknown is alive. Here, the ground murmurs secrets. The air devours memories. The trees do not sway—but they watch. Stranded in a land where identity itself is prey, Erasmus does what he has always done: observe, adapt, and take control. But in a world that feeds on the mind before the body, ambition alone may not be enough. Something in the dark is listening. And it does not forget.

As the most devout priest of the Holy See, Elias never imagined that he would have a forbidden love with the paladin Theron. When he first treated Theron, he discovered that the majestic knight had ancient dragon bloodline flowing through his body.

The strict discipline of the Holy See warns them, but every night Theron quietly arrives. Your holy light is calling me, Reverend. "Theron's hot breath brushed against Elias' ear. In the darkness, Elias trembled and responded, 'In the name of God... this is blasphemy...' No, "Theron's kiss burned on his neck," this is our miracle

Seamus Danford is just your average 18-year-old freshman, trying to survive college with his hot (and kinda obsessive) girlfriend Viviane. Everything was fine until his drunk, gambling-addicted father suddenly announced he was marrying a woman he had just met. Worse? The night before the wedding, Seamus dreamed his soon-to-be stepmom was sucking his dad’s blood. Too bad he couldn’t stop the wedding. Now his father is married to Isolde, a rich, gorgeous widow… who also happens to be Viviane’s mother. Yeah, Seamus is now dating his stepsister. But breaking up? Not an option. He’s way too deep for that. However, on the wedding night, things get even crazier. Viviane sucks his blood during sex. Turns out she and her mom are vampires, and his blood is something rare: [Red Nectar]. The taste? Irresistible. The effect? He’s now bound to them by blood imprint. As if that wasn’t enough, a strange system suddenly awakens inside him: [Scarlet Purgatory Lust] is a power that lets him grow stronger by having sex with vampires or letting them drink his blood. Now Seamus is stuck in a world he never knew existed, with vampire factions fighting over his rare blood and lust-fueled powers awakening inside him. Will he survive this erotic, dangerous world… or get devoured in more ways than one?

Born of flames and waves, rejected by both, yet accepted by frost. In a world where the majority of humans contract with spirit...avatars. Axel is born to the High Priest of Fire and the High Priestess of Water— an forbidden union. Though fire and water are not enemies, they are not meant to mix—especially not for figures as politically and religiously significant as his parents. Yet their naivety and youthful passion led to his birth. A forbidden child, he was abandoned—left to die. And yet, here he was again. A perfect copy of his father—the so-called strongest avatar. People would start asking questions. And he wouldn’t let that happen. Axel is hunted down, poisoned, and marked for assassination. But by a stroke of luck—or perhaps fate—he survives, eventually forming a bond with an ancient spirit: the Spirit of Frost. An element lost to time. The spirit whispers in his ears, draining away his warmth, his emotions… even the anger he once held, in exchange for the power to rise against the world that wanted him dead. “We shall freeze them all,” the spirit murmured, “pushing them into the cold embrace of death.” Its gaze moved beyond Axel’s enemies—toward the true threat: the spirits who had sealed away winter itself.

Ken had to kill everyone in the town. He had made a deal. So, he started. First, he killed the priest. This was the man who said Ken should be beheaded. Next was the old woman. She had cheered the loudest. Then came his friends and neighbors. He also killed the schoolteacher. She had acted like she didn't see what was happening. With each death, a glowing mark appeared on Ken's chest. Each scream made a shadow behind a curtain grow stronger. But things felt wrong. As Ken killed more people, the world around him started to break apart. Reality seemed to glitch. When he looked in a mirror, his reflection didn't move with him. The stars in the sky changed their positions. They formed an eye that just stared. Then came the final sacrifice, the last living soul: his mother.

I wasn’t supposed to be here. Not in this fallen temple. Not in this broken life. Reborn as a false priest, a lie draped in worn robes, praying to gods who had long forgotten me. This place was my prison. My exile. A tomb for a soul who had no right to hope. Then he appeared. A filthy man, reeking of sweat and something darker, something intoxicating. His eyes gleamed with wild fire, and a crooked smile tugged at his lips like he knew every secret I tried to hide. He sauntered in, voice low and teasing. "Well, well, what do we have here? A little lost lamb in a den of shadows?"He asked. "I am the last priest this temple has."I said. He laughed, a slow, sultry sound that sent shivers down my spine. "False priest, true sinner. You’re far too serious for a place like this." His gaze lingered a moment too long, the heat in his eyes promising danger and delight. "I’m not supposed to fall. Not supposed to want."I said. He stepped closer, breath warm against my ear. "Oh, but darling, temptation is the sweetest kind of prayer."He grinned. And just like that, my quiet exile shattered, torn apart by a demon’s obsession. A seduction incubus who wasn’t afraid to play with fire… and power me in ways I never expected.

But by chance—or fate—he saves one of the 7 Demon Lords during a catastrophic war event. Instead of killing him, she falls for him. Obsessively. Violently. Eternally. And then… so do the others.

They summoned ten of us to their world. Nine were chosen. One was cast aside. At the merge ceremony, the others bonded with beautiful gods, exotic beasts that could make their greatest wishes come true. Or... Give them the power to. I stood alone, rejected by every last one. Then... by those who summoned me. "The Cursed Hero," they mocked. I thought it was over for me. But something… answered. Something... saved me. Now there’s a mark burned into my skin, a scar that brands me as "The Demon". Cursed. Dangerous. The kingdoms look at me with fear, and the other heroes keep their swords close when I’m near. Priests think I’m the mistake in their prophecy. Maybe they’re right. Because whatever power I’ve been chained to, it’s waking up. And it demands blood... ------------------ Writing Schedule: Tuesdays and Thursdays

I am a lost soul, i was seduced by darkness and now im its mistress. I have done many terrible things, deceived many people, and committed cruel crimes. But I am not afraid of earthly judgments; my magic shall protect me from any grasp. I shall banish evil and good spirits alike; it is only my inner darkness that I cannot escape. I am the controller of humanity, the ruler of the world, the grand master, the high priest, the judge and holder of secrets. I am the creator of rules and regulations; I am the puppeteer that lurks in the shadows.
