Guilty Crown Shu X Gui

They left me to die. But this world had other plans. When our deep-space expedition crashed on a hostile alien planet, I thought the survivors would stick together. I was wrong. The moment the beasts came, my crew threw me to them—used me as bait to save themselves. I should’ve died out there. But death never came. Rescued by the native tribes who walk through ash and fire, I awoke in a world of primal gods, ancestral trials, and secrets buried in the soil. They didn’t know what I was—or what I could become. Neither did I. With broken tech, buried knowledge, and fire in my blood, I rose. And as I carved out a new place among these people, I asked myself: If I can lead them... should I? If those who betrayed me return... will I show mercy—or burn them to ash? In this world, survival is earned. And I was abandoned—so I will rise.

This is the story of a man who lost everything, rose again, and chose to become a nightmare the world will never forget.

In a kingdom where emotions fuel magic, everyone is trained to control their feelings—because too much love, rage, or grief can literally level a city. But Ariya, a seventeen-year-old girl born with "null magic" (zero emotional magic response), is the anomaly: unbothered, unmagical, and totally free in a society ruled by restraint. Until... she accidentally saves a dying mysterious boy—Kael, who turns out to be the last heir of a cursed bloodline, banished centuries ago. His emotions are magic. Unfiltered. Explosive. And now bonded to Ariya, the only person who can suppress his chaos and stop the ancient curse eating him alive. Together, they’re forced into hiding. But there’s a catch: the more time they spend together, the more Ariya begins to feel. And as she starts to awaken emotionally, her null magic doesn't disappear—it morphs. She doesn’t just feel things. She begins to absorb and amplify the emotions of those around her, turning her into a magical bomb of empathy. As enemies close in and kingdoms wage war over control of Kael’s unstable powers, Ariya must choose: Stay emotionally numb and safe, Or unlock her power, fall in love, and risk losing everything in a magical meltdown that could destroy them both.

"I wanted him to see me. Now he can't look away." He was perfect. Successful. Charming. The kind of man women crave without ever touching. But I didn't want just a moment- I wanted forever. So I did what no sane woman would ever do: I took him. And now, as he stands in front of me with those eyes-dark, dangerous, devouring-I know: He's not the kind of man you admire from afar. He's the kind of man you fear. Those eyes-damn those eyes. They speak louder than words. They see me like I'm everything he's ever wanted. But in that gaze, there's no love. Only something deeper. Darker. What began as obsession has become something far more dangerous- a twisted game of control, power, and desire. And there's no way out. Not for him. Not for me. For those who believe in the darker side of love- and are willing to lose control to find it.

***Together, they were like fire and ice.*** Damon pursued, ready to conquer while Alexander ran, trying so hard to remain cold and guarded. Alexander had thought guarding the sick crown prince was something so easy until he found himself cruelly yet so innocently tempted. ***excerpt*** There was indeed nothing he could do when it came to this man. "You...you are shameless." Alexander managed to say something once he recovered from his momentarily shock. Damon smirked. "I know and I am unapologetic for being that way. Alexander, I am going to do whatever it takes to make you mine." Damon smiled painfully, his voice serious as his eyes burned into his. Alexander was lost for words. At least Damon was being brazenly honest about his intentions. Knowing that did not help to lessen his overwhelmed state at the bold declaration. Now, Alexander knew this man had his eyes set on him but what was he going to do about it. Run or give in to his desires. Desires his mind was still coming to terms with. Running was the safer option because uncertainty was not his greatest suite. But... this man had assured him that he had no problem chasing him. Alexander knew he was doomed...so sweetly doomed. ...

The war ended with a sword through his heart. His new life begins with a dagger in his soul. Orion Myrelis died a hero… or so he thought. When he awakens in a silent void, stripped of everything but memory and regret, a message from the system delivers a cruel truth: [Congratulations. You have completed the tutorial.] Thrown into a world bound by the laws of a living Tower — a construct older than time and ruled by gods who were once men — Orion finds himself reborn not into glory, but into the cursed body of a failed climber. The boy named Ajax Zareth lingers inside, his soul trapped beneath Orion’s, amused and strangely grateful for the company. Together, they must navigate floor zero and prepare because the countdown to the First Trial was already ticking. Marked as a Drifter, Orion is an anomaly. The Tower bends around him. Beasts are drawn to him. And unlike the others… he has two traits. Prior to being reborn an ancient being took pity on his soul and granted him a unique power. One that could lead him to surpass even the gods if used right. But power always comes with a price — and Orion will soon learn that the Tower was never built to save him. It was built to test him. Break him. And if he refuses to climb… it will bury him.

Now inhabiting the body of a gifted arcane student named Elian Durne, Cain finds himself in a world governed by twelve forgotten Crowns—ancient constructs that distort memory, bend reality, and unravel the self. These Crowns offer godlike power... at a devastating price. The first to call him is the Crown of Silence, a domain of truth, memory, and unspeakable knowledge. To wield it, Cain must complete impossible rites, survive identity-fracturing distortions, and solve the paradoxes written into the very fabric of the world. But he is not alone.

Perfect for fans of Lord of the Mysteries, Reverend Insanity, and Mother of Learning, Paradox of Crowns is an occult isekai saga of psychological unraveling, forbidden power, and the war between forgotten truths and written fate.
