Chronicles of a Regressed Hero

When the world is thrust into chaos with the awakening of mana, Gawain Alaric is one of many caught in the storm. But unlike the others, he’s been here before. After witnessing the fall of humanity in his first life, he returns to the past with one goal: seize the power he once lacked and alter the fate of the world.

The world has undergone a forced evolution, and now, humanity was forced to fight for their lives in the nightmarish tutorial, all the while building enough strength to save themselves from monsters in human skin.

Gawain has seen their true face and witnessed the destruction they bring. This time, he will stop them before they can plunge the world into chaos. At the heart of this apocalyptic upheaval stands the Tower—an ominous structure that appeared overnight, its peak shrouded in the clouds. And well, let's just say Gawain knew about the horrors there better than anyone else. The Tower isn’t just a place of trials and rewards; it’s a game board for the gods, who watch from their lofty thrones, amused by the suffering of mortals. To them, Earth is nothing but a grand spectacle, and humanity’s fight for survival is their favorite form of entertainment. But this time, he won't be just a mere pawn. He won't let that monster wipe out his home. This time, Gawain will be the one pulling the strings.

A Fraud as Hero and A Hero as Demon Lord: A Twisted Tale

[WPC August Entry 2024] "Erik, you committed a serious crime by plagiarizing a man's work," declared the God. "There are millions of criminals committing worse crimes than mine. Why am I being punished?" Erik retorted. "Because you stole a novel from a man who used to be a hero and died protecting the planet." --- "Hello, fraud. Live in a world as me, the pathetic hero you described, and I will be your greatest adversary, the demon lord," Rome proclaimed with a chilling smile. In this novel, Erik is reborn as the hero of the stolen tale, but the demon lord Rome and the Gods won't allow him a moment's peace. Because who wouldn't? Erik stole a novel from Rome, God's favored child. He plagiarized it, catapulting himself to the position of the world's top novelist while Rome spiraled into despair, ultimately ending his own life. For Rome, the novel wasn't just a collection of words. It was a universe where he had lived through triumph and sacrifice, where every character and plot twist had been a part of his own existence. As a former hero, Rome made a wish to the Gods. He yearned to be reborn as the demon lord in the same world where he had met his end at the hands of the demon lord, with Erik reincarnated as the hero destined to fall by the demon lord's hand. Will Erik defy fate and evade the clutches of the demon lord, or will Rome exact his revenge? Or perhaps, something even more monumental is about to unfold? ---- **Disclaimer:** This novel is a work of fiction and is not based on any real individuals or events. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. It is not intended to offend or attack anyone. I deeply apologize if any content is perceived as offensive.

I Became a Predator in a World of Systems

In a world where every citizen died and was resurrected with a system that bestowed upon them different races and abilities, society is now divided into two distinct categories: Predators and Preys. Predators are the higher-ranked, evil-generating individuals, feared and respected for their power and malevolence. Preys, on the other hand, generate good, often finding themselves at the mercy of the ruthless Predators. Aiden, a calm, collected, and law-abiding citizen of Canada, lived in this new world as an Incubus—a mild evil-generating system tasked with awakening the deepest lusts in others. Though his life took a dark turn with the world purge, Aiden managed to maintain his moral compass, balancing the demands of his system with his inherent sense of justice. But fate had other plans. After a horrific accident left his body brutally destroyed, Aiden's soul was unexpectedly transferred into the body of a wealthy young conglomerate—one who bore an Extreme Evil System. Suddenly, Aiden found himself in the shoes of a high-ranking Predator, a Demon, a race that transcends all others, a direct descendant of the Devil himself. Now, Aiden must navigate the treacherous world of Predators, wielding the overwhelming power of a Demon while grappling with the moral conflicts of his former life. As he adapts to his new identity, Aiden must decide whether to embrace the darkness within or find a way to survive without losing his soul.
