Ash Mercier has always been good at understanding people what they want, what they fear, what makes them tick. It’s not magic. Just observation, pattern recognition, a skill sharpened over years of watching the world with cold, detached clarity. He thought he had life figured out. Until one night, something shifts. It starts small. A street that feels too quiet. A flickering light that shouldn’t matter. A strange feeling he can’t shake. Coincidence. Imagination. That’s what he tells himself. But the moments keep piling up. The city around him feels… wrong. The people, the places things he’s known his whole life suddenly feel unfamiliar, like a script he’s no longer following. Ash has spent his life reading people apart, staying in control, always one step ahead. But now, for the first time, he’s starting to wonder has he ever truly been in control at all?

After a tragic accident that claimed the lives of his parents and little sister, Leo, just 17 years old, found himself shouldering all responsibilities alone. By some miracle, he survived the past four months on his own—attending high school, juggling multiple part-time jobs, and enduring sympathetic gazes that pained him. The only respite he found was in books, which offered him an escape and some semblance of joy. One day, while engrossed in the book 'Path of Heroes: Battle Against the End,' his life took an unexpected turn. Halfway through the story, he inexplicably found himself transmigrated into the world of Path of Heroes, inhabiting the body of Azriel Crimson—a character never mentioned in the story's first half. An extra. Someone seemingly irrelevant to the plot. Unfortunately—or perhaps fortunately—fate had other plans, and Leo soon discovered that being a mere extra was not his destiny after all. -------------------------------------- Character illustrations will be available on Discord.

As the other participants—a mix of personalities with varying degrees of anime knowledge—prepare to enter the simulation, Arthur remains the only one who has never indulged in anime. Upon entering this new world, he discovers an unsettling truth: pain is excruciatingly real, despite the creators' claims of a dampened pain response. He eventually finds himself trapped in prison, unable to log out, and demanding to be released from the program.

Betrayed by his own blood. Cast out by his people. Slaughtered like a beast. King Vaelthorn ruled with power, wisdom, and an iron grip—until the ones he trusted most turned against him. Poisoned, broken, and thrown into an unmarked grave, his legend should have ended there. But fate is cruel… and generous. Reincarnated a century later with all of his past memories, Vaelthorn finds himself in a world where his empire has crumbled, his name has been erased, and his enemies sit upon the throne he built. The weak rule, and the strong are shackled by cowardly kings. But the gods have made a mistake. This time, Vaelthorn bows to no one. With forbidden magic flowing through his veins, a legion of war-hardened outcasts, and a mind honed by betrayal, he will tear through the ranks of the false rulers who sit atop his throne. They stole his kingdom. Now, he will take their souls.

Strength is a pursuit that drives us all, though for vastly different reasons. Some seek it to shield their loved ones, to stand as an unshakable wall against the world's storms. Others crave it to solidify their dominance, clinging to power with an iron grip. And then some chase strength not for protection or control but for ambition—to carve their names into history through sheer might. Yet among all the reasons that compel one to grow stronger, none is more destructive or consuming than the thirst for revenge. This path is paved with pain and fueled by suffering, and in the end, it often leads not to triumph but to ruin. Alex, a seventeen-year-old boy, watched in helpless horror as his family and clan were slaughtered before his eyes by the Four Higher clans. Powerless, he had no choice but to run. But even as he fled, one thought burned into his soul, searing deeper with every heartbeat. They will pay. Every single one of them will pay. I don’t care if I have to sell my soul to the devil— They. Will. All. Pay. Let us journey with Alex on his journey for revenge, in a world of magic.

In a world dominated by the tyrannical Overlord, where society thrives on the power of Q-Energy, those deemed unworthy are discarded and left to perish. Ishizaki, a scavenger barely scraping by in the outskirts of civilization, never imagined he was anything more than another forsaken soul. But his life changes forever when he unearths a strange, sentient device hidden beneath the rubble—Solus, an advanced AI fused with Q-Energy. From the moment he touches it, Ishizaki is marked for death. The Overlord’s forces descend upon him with terrifying efficiency, forcing him into a desperate flight for survival. As he struggles to stay alive, he finds allies in the most unlikely places: Drax, a grizzled warrior with a thirst for vengeance; Kaede, a rogue scientist harboring dangerous secrets; and a group of orphaned children who have lost everything. But the deeper they flee into the ruins of the old world, the more Ishizaki realizes something is wrong. He is changing. Visions of a past he does not remember. A voice whispering in his mind. An unbearable sense of déjà vu as he draws closer to the Overlord’s darkest secrets. When the group uncovers the remnants of Project Ascension, a forbidden experiment buried beneath layers of deception, Ishizaki is confronted with an unbearable truth—he is not who he thought he was. The answers lie within a heavily guarded research facility, a place where monsters were made, and humanity was lost. It is there that Ishizaki encounters Unit 01, a being fused with both flesh and machine, a prototype of something greater—the first subject of Project Ascension. But what shakes him to his core is not Unit 01’s power or the horror of their existence. It’s the fact that they recognize him. “You were meant to replace me.” Before Ishizaki can demand answers, the facility begins to collapse. Unit 01, unstable and dying, makes a final sacrifice to ensure the group’s escape. But freedom is an illusion. As they emerge into the broken world beyond, a chilling sight awaits them—the Overlord’s forces are already there, waiting. Their arrival was expected. Now, with the truth about himself unraveling, Ishizaki faces an impossible choice: accept that he is nothing more than a failed experiment and keep running, or embrace the terrifying possibility that he was created to end the Overlord’s rule. Even if it means sacrificing his own humanity. The path ahead is uncertain, but one thing is clear—he is forsaken, but he is not alone. And for the first time, Solus speaks not as an AI, but as something else entirely. “Ishizaki… you were never meant to survive. But now that you have, what will you do?” With enemies on all sides, time running out, and the weight of the past crushing him, Ishizaki must forge his own path. A path of vengeance. A path of survival. A path of the forsaken.

In a world spread across four majestic continents and countless nations, where power is the only currency and betrayal is a way of life, **Luka Halton**, the third son of Duke Halton of the mighty Cromwell Empire, is cast into exile. Framed by his scheming siblings for a crime he did not commit—stealing the Third Princess's jewelry and sneaking into her private chambers—Luka is stripped of his title, his wealth, and his family. His cold and power-hungry father, Duke Halton, and the calculating Emperor Adrian Cromwell banish him to a life of obscurity. But Luka is no ordinary nobleman. Trained in the art of the sword and honed by years of surviving the treacherous politics of his family, he is a man of cunning, intelligence, and unyielding ambition. With nothing but his wits and a burning desire for revenge, Luka crosses the sea to the **Central Continent**, home to the **Valkia Empire**. Penniless and alone, he wanders the land, surviving through sheer will and strategic thinking. His fortunes change when he stumbles upon the **Viscountcy of Southvale**, a crumbling noble house on the southern border of the Valkia Empire. The once-proud estate is now a shadow of its former self, ruled by **Lady Elara**, a timid and stuttering woman who is the last surviving member of her family. With only a handful of poorly trained soldiers and a land on the brink of collapse, Elara is desperate for salvation. Luka sees an opportunity. Using his charm, intelligence, and manipulative prowess, he convinces Elara to marry him, presenting himself as a loving and devoted suitor. In truth, his intentions are far darker: he seeks to use the Viscountcy as a stepping stone to rebuild his power and exact vengeance on those who wronged him. As the new lord of Southvale, Luka begins to transform the impoverished land into a thriving stronghold, employing ruthless tactics, shrewd alliances, and innovative strategies to strengthen his position. But the path to power is fraught with danger. Rival lords, jealous of his rapid rise, plot against him. The southern border is threatened by a foreign nation eager to expand its territory. Within the Valkia Empire, the imperial family is embroiled in a bitter struggle for the throne, and the calculating ** imperial senate ** grows suspicious of Luka's ambitions. As Luka navigates these challenges, he must also confront the ghosts of his past—his fractured relationship with his family, the betrayal that exiled him, and the burning desire for revenge that drives him.

Set in a world where espionage and sorcery intertwine, this story blends the high-stakes tension of a spy thriller with the grand spectacle of fantasy warfare. Political intrigue, covert operations, and hidden agendas shape the fate of kingdoms, while powerful warriors and mercenary cults wield magic and technology in brutal conflicts. Expect a main character started from nowhere with no family or friends with the help of his system leveling up in life going onto dangerous missions and collecting different kinds of magical powers. (this is not a system novel just about killing monsters and leveling up.)
