Forsaken Warrior

Cassian Ven Dyke, the bastard son of a powerful ducal family, grew up in the slums of Veldora under the care of his father figure, sword master Russel. When Russel passed away, Cassian was left with only a silver necklace as his inheritance. After putting it on, Cassian was attacked by three psychotic thugs who tortured him in an attempt to steal the necklace. Refusing to give in, Cassian was ultimately stabbed through the heart with the very same necklace. Instead of dying, he mysteriously vanished as the necklace lodged itself in his heart. Just before disappearing, he heard an eerie message echo in his mind: [True mana detected. Origin: Human...] [Human detected.

The True Test of a Warrior, this book was supposed to be the last novel in the Warriors of Oduduwa novel franchise, but of course, the content of this book exceeded the boundaries that I had set for it. As I wrote this book, I explained in complete detail the origin of some of the covenants in the Yoruba country and dished out a lot of background stories on some of the major characters in this book. Then I introduced another primary antagonist and exposed a fraction of his evil capabilities and his twisted ideals. This story also contains a mixture of the political structure of the Yoruba Empire and the nature of some of its greedy leaders. Before the introduction of the British indirect rule and how the political structure affects the people at the grassroots. To sum it up, the entire book centres on the culture of the Yoruba people; however, some things are different; for instance, there was no such thing as the Adegunju province and the Ẹṣọs test never existed during the pre-colonial era (a little spice to make the story interesting). I spent a lot of time and effort on this book, cross-checking each character and charting each event, hoping to come up with an excellent ending that will entertain everyone who reads it. I hope you all enjoy this story

“My parents died protecting me.” “I only wanted a better, average life with my younger brother, but life knew how to punch you in the face. Nothing ever goes like I wanted.” “I started with the thrashest F-level trait possible, but so what? I’ll never surrender or resign myself to fate.” — Ash. Two hundred years ago, humanity opened portals to other dimensions, but involuntarily, they ended up bringing their worst nightmares to Earth—otherworld monsters that killed everything in their path. Mana came along with the monsters, strengthening humanity’s bodies and allowing them to awaken traits to fight against these monsters. Yet they were still too weak. The only option found for surviving was to enter other worlds, steal their resources, and empower themselves to fight against their enemies. — This novel is inspired by one of my favorite Korean novels, which I had the pleasure of reading. However, the setting is entirely different. If you have read it, you'll likely recognize it in the prologue.

When Luella decides to take revenge on her family, she goes to one person she fully trusts. ~+~ ~Fragment~ "Do you want this?" His voice was low, almost a growl, but there was a hint of something else beneath — something that made her heart skip a beat. She swallowed hard, her throat dry. The question hung in the air between them, heavy and tangible. "I… I don't know," She finally answered, her voice barely above a whisper. His lips curled into a smirk, a slow, dangerous smile that sent shivers down her spine. "Liar" he murmured, his voice a deep rumble that vibrated through her. "You want this. You want me." She opened her mouth to protest, to deny it, but he didn't give her a chance. His hand shot out, gripping her chin roughly, forcing her to look up at him. "Do you want me to prove it?" He asked, his voice dripping with challenge. ~+~ Tags: #Revenge #Strongfemalelead, #norape, #reincarnation, #Fakeidentity, #EdwardianEra, #VampireRomance #Smut #Supernaturalpowers #magic #darkfantasy #long-distance pining (The main characters are aware of each other's feelings but can't be physically be together yet.

I closed my eyes with a sigh and let the needle slip through limp fingers. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. They could always find someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light. Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

There will always be a battle between two concepts that stay relatively the same throughout every story, life vs. death, light vs. darkness, evil vs. good, but they all fall under one category…Negativity and Positivity. In our minds that is all they are, just concepts. But…what if they were people? Beings that feel, can move, have emotions, and have their own story. Bundle up everything that those two concepts are and you can create two embodiments, one for each idea. Can we understand what they feel in our minds? No, we cannot, but here…they are honest and exist among us. We must watch, we must listen, as they become real in our hearts and minds, they deserve a spot in the light—the darkest abyss vs. the brightest stars.

The world, born billions of years ago, has been shaped and transformed by humanity's relentless drive for evolution and innovation. Over the ages, countless myths and legends emerged, igniting belief so powerful it birthed a force akin to creation itself: faith energy. This energy, fueled by humanity's collective consciousness, began to reshape reality in subtle but profound ways. Guided by a mysterious being, a formless guardian charged with maintaining balance, a plan was set into motion. Using the collected faith energy, the guardian crafted a new world — a perfect mirror of Earth — and duplicated a fragment of every human soul to inhabit it. But even the formless one, with all its knowledge, could miscalculate. In a twist of fate, actual souls, not wisps, were reborn in this parallel realm, leaving their original bodies lifeless.

But as Ariase steps back into the halls of his former school, he realizes that everything is different — his world has changed, in ways he cannot yet fathom. Now, Ariase must navigate this rewritten reality, unravel its mysteries, and come to terms with his place in a world that is both his and not his at all.

In the crumbling order stands Celestra, an heir born into a noble clan in a world where strength and ruthlessness are prized above all. Forsaken by a gentle nature, she is bound by duty to an unforgiving legacy. While the world around her descends further into despair, Celestra is drawn to an ancient promise of peace—one whispered only in myth and shadow. Her journey is to find the truth of the world while fighting for peace. But salvation may come at a price she isn't willing to pay.
