Counterfeit Hero

The adventures of a young man and how he found himself at the final battle between the legendary hero and the evil Demon king This story is has come to a end thank you to anyone that read it.

I closed my eyes and let out a long, shuddering breath. The needle slipped through my numb fingers and clattered onto the rough pavement. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first peace I'd felt in my short, miserable life. No one would miss me, and if any did...? Well, there was always someone else to beat or rape. They'd move on quickly. But then...gods? Since when did nothingness have so many gods? Chosen by the goddess of Fate, I'm thrust into a world of magic and wonder alongside nine other heroes. A world where the gods reign supreme, and evil is vanquished before it can spread its blight. Can such a place truly exist? Could life really be worth living? I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows, but my life has been nothing but darkness. Perhaps this new world will be the chance I need to find the light, to see the other side.

Anyi, the [Sword Hero], was slain by the Demon Lord during the Holy War. Yet, he opened his eyes to find himself reincarnated at the moment of his birth. At eighteen, the "[Hero System Launch]" echoed, and thousands of heroes emerged. They fought fiercely to become the strongest among humans, boasting greatly enhanced attributes and skills that defied the laws of physics. Despite their impressive potential, they had to start from scratch, mastering their weapons and gathering intelligence on monsters.

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.

a story that I started on the royal road that I am unsure if I should continue ============================== In a kingdom where the dead walk and the darkness whisper of doom, salvation rests in the hands of the broken, the discarded, and the damned. Once a name that inspired fear, Kaius was a warlord whose conquests left rivers of blood in their wake. Now, burdened by the weight of his sins, he lives in exile, haunted by the faces of the slain. But when a rising tide of undead threatens to devour the shattered remnants of Xanvern, Kaius is forced to confront his past and the ghosts it left behind. At the heart of this terror is a cabal of necromancers, wielding magic so vile it twists life itself into abominations. Their ranks swell with the enslaved dead, and whispers of betrayal echo through Xanvern as dark cults rise to worship them. To banish this suffocating darkness, Kaius must embrace the agony of his past, transforming himself into a weapon of fear and destruction. In a world where mercy is a death sentence and compassion is devoured by the shadows, survival demands he abandon his humanity. To save Xanvern, Kaius must walk the line between human and inhuman. But in the end, will he save the kingdom—or damn it to eternal darkness? To fight monsters, must one also become a monster?. (I'm a new author so I have no idea what I'm doing. Please don't expect much from me.)

So here I am—Nash, the most unmotivated hero you’ll ever meet. One day, I’m binging my favorite shows, and the next, I’m the new big boss of a Warden guild. Timing has never really been my thing. Between the Malefics, who think chaos is their calling card, and mythical beasts that just won’t stay in their hidden lairs, I’m constantly juggling crises and wrangling spoiled brats during my coffee breaks. And Mana, that subtle energy, can be a decent buddy… even if it doesn’t really get the concept of “snooze.” So yeah, between naps, I’m wading through high-stakes missions, magical artifacts, and guild meetings. And if the world needs saving, I’m here—ready to do it in my pajamas. That’s Nash, your guild master, set to ruffle even the coolest dragons! --- Discord: https://discord.gg/HrY5epthyw Participated on the Webnovel Rising Star II

She was always thinking of "you." If she saved the “world,” "you", who had to leave because of her, would also be saved. That was her atonement. That was her hope. Believing that, she donned the mask of a hero and fought. But the day she reunited with "you", her determination wavered. She was made aware of everything by a succubus who suddenly appeared one day. That which she truly desired. The world she truly wished for. In truth, she didn’t need anything else but “that” in her world. The immense world she was supposed to protect and save until then ended up changing into an extremely small one, where only "you" exist. After being assaulted by a lilim, which is a powerful succubus, Wilmarina’s body was thoroughly taught pleasure by the lilim’s hand, and infused with lewd mamono mana. She was reborn as one of the mamono lord’s kin, “Succubus Wilmarina.” The “heroic” falsehoods were torn away by devilish pleasure, and she stopped lying to herself. As far as she’s concerned now, "you" are everything in the world to her. She basically has no interest whatsoever in anything but "you". Even though she swore allegiance to the gods and the order, and tried so hard to protect their world and their believers, it had all been a lie from the beginning. It all completely vanished from her heart, as though pushed out by "you". She no longer cares at all about any of it. As for her heart after becoming a monster, it’s overflowing with a sense of freedom from having cast aside the hero’s mask, and a sense of exaltation knowing that she’s going to be getting what she truly desires. Her monstrous body burns hotly from many years of pent-up desire for "you", and because of the monster’s instinct which seeks the male body and essence. Her eyes carry a red, bewitching light, and in them the only thing reflected is "you". She would assault "you" while ruled by this devilish nature. As far as she’s concerned, living together with "you" and especially having sweet intercourse is what constitutes a time of happiness. The scent and warmth of "you", the pleasure she gets from "you", and the taste of "your" essence, etc. She experiences great joy and ecstasy from having her heart and body stained one color by all of it. Rather than decaying, the sword and sorcery skills she cultivated as “Wilmarina the hero” have been beautifully polished and strengthened. Should she receive orders from the lilim she adores, or, in the case that the enemy invades Lescatie (which has been changed into a mamono realm) and it becomes necessary to protect "you", she’ll use the full extent of that power to defeat the enemies of the mamono realm, and corrupt everyone into lewd monsters the same as herself. However, perhaps because she’d been separated from "you" for so long until then, she absolutely detests being apart from “you” for even the shortest time. Since even her power is actually "yours", she wouldn’t take the initiative to go off to battle except for the above written reasons, and in the midst of battle, her mind would probably be dominated by thoughts like “I want to hurry up and go home to be with darling.” She’s cast aside the heroic falsehoods of sacrificing herself for the sake of the gods and their believers, and she indulges in "you". She’s been reduced to a simple female who desires only to indulge in "you". Because of that, she’s able to finally achieve the form that she truly desires: merely that of the young girl “Wilmarina” who’s in love with "you".

Our hero summoned to a strange place, is requested to save the world. Even when suspicious our reluctant hero decides to help if they can. However maybe its at a cost most would be unwilling to pay.

I was going around my everyday life when suddenly something very strange and creepy happened! I still didn’t understand the mystery behind my sudden death. One moment I was a normal office employee in a small game company, the next moment I was a slave who fainted just from getting slapped! “Hey Delta, why did you kill me?” - “Delta brought host into this world for a purpose. Host must save Goddess Psais because without her permission, Delta cannot send host back to his world.” A purpose, a System, a Status Window and a magical world filled with magical mysteries. Though I desired for change from my monotonous life, I now realize that change was not always for the good! Now I want only one thing more than anything, which is to go back to the life which was safe and quiet. *** This is a story about a damsel in distress who is captured by a monster and our protagonist is tasked to be the hero who saves her. However, is the damsel, a Goddess, truly in distress? Is the monster that killed Gods and Goddesses and enslaved Destiny, truly a villain? Is the human, who is forced to be a hero, truly a Hero? Follow Deniel in his journey as he explores a new and mysterious world after being reincarnated as Alex. Watch him make mistakes and learn from them. Watch how a normal human with a frail physique and a weak mentality grows to be the strongest being that can even rival the Gods! Watch him find out what Fate truly is and how greedy Death can be for a soul. *** [P.S: This is the first time I'm writing a novel and English was not my first language.
