Chronicles Of The Jobless Hero

When Saguna's sister vanished twelve years ago, no one believed his story about shadow monsters. Now the marks on his neck are burning, whispers haunt his mind, and fire flows from his hands. With two unlikely allies bearing similar marks, Saguna must master his abilities and repair the thinning Veil before the shadows consume everything—including his trapped sister.

The Universe was devastated after the fall of the gods. Great beings from the Void invaded our reality, unleashing the most apocalyptic war ever seen. The imposing Lord of Light, the fearsome Lord of Darkness, the majestic Primordial Dragons, the Phoenix, the Planet-Devouring Serpent, and many other entities that presumed to be invincible were annihilated one after another. Annihilation seemed inevitable until the great Supreme Ruler of Creation personally intervened, annihilating all the Emperors of the Void. Finally, he faced off against the Supreme, the one before whom all rulers of the Void knelt. The battle lasted eons, pushing the entire universe to the brink of collapse. It was then that Yggdrasil, the Guardian of Reality, used its ultimate ability to seal both of them within itself before self-immolating, ending the lives of the three most terrifying beings that have ever existed. Or so we thought... Now, a new and dark threat looms over creation. An echo of that ancient conflict resonates, and the fate of everything hangs by a precarious thread. Only the one who can hold up the heavens will have the power to stop it.

In a world without day, where the sun is dead and monsters roam the blackened wilds, survival hinges on a single, brutal truth: if you do not bond your soul to an effigy, you will die. Sixteen years ago, Silas was torn from his old world and thrust into this ruinous city of a thousand starving souls, believing—naively—that transmigration had chosen him for greatness. But when his talent test brands him pathless and his mind collapses into madness, that hope dies. Now deemed useless by the clergy and society, Silas is left clinging to two things: a cursed second chance and the company of his two friends—Cassian, a rare Light-path prodigy, and Velira, a water-path orphan with more resolve than strength. When Silas undertakes the dangerous soul-refinement ritual, his effigy twists into something unnatural—part effigy, part monster What begins as a fight for survival becomes a descent into a deeper mystery: one that ties Silas’s unstable soul to forbidden relics sealed beneath the cathedral, hybrid monsters stalking the outer darkness With every refinement, every soul-splitting ritual, the cost grows heavier. And in a city where the clergy would sooner let you die than help you rise, Silas must decide: Will he follow the broken paths laid before him… Or carve a new one, even if it damns him?

In one life, his mind commanded steel and concrete. In this new one, he was forged in the shadows to become a weapon. Reborn into a legendary ninja clan, he learned to kill in the silence and live by the rules of the dark. But when a bloody betrayal wipes his clan from the map, he is forced to flee, carrying the burden of lost techniques and a unique power: the ability to see the hidden truths and weaknesses in all things. Now, living under the guise of a common adventurer, he only wants to forget the past. But in a world ruled by sword and sorcery, secrets never stay buried for long. And the ghosts of a shattered clan cry out for answers.

Across the shattered threads of infinite realities, eight chosen warriors rise. When omniversal collapse looms, the Celestial Vanguards—each forged by fate, power, and purpose—must stand against the forces that seek to unmake existence itself. From the divine will of Kael to the crystalline fury of Veyra, they are not heroes by chance. They are destiny’s last defense. But as secrets unravel and gods stir from silence, one truth becomes clear: Ascension is not given. It is earned. Dive into Chronicles of Ascension — a cosmic saga of power, sacrifice, and the will to rise against the end of everything.

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.

WIP

In the waning years of the Eternal Era, a prodigious monarch unearthed a forbidden tome buried beneath the roots of heaven itself — a book said to predate the world, capable of seeing flaws in all things and fusing what should never be joined. But power breeds fear. Betrayed by those he called brother, the monarch was ambushed while decoding the tome’s final page. As his life slipped away, his blood soaked into the book — and the tome glowed, vanishing into his very soul. And then… he vanished from the world. --- One hundred thousand years later, in a humble village beneath the Forgotten Sky, a boy is born. Weak. Silent. Unremarkable. But at his birth, a strange golden mark flickers behind his eyes — and a sleeping book begins to whisper in the void. With no memory of the ancient soul slumbering within him, Rui Xuan begins a journey unlike any other. Mocked as talentless, denied cultivation by broken techniques and corrupt sects, his destiny shifts when a floating, radiant tome awakens within his mind. This book can analyze anything. This book can fuse everything. This book… is alive. As realms descend into war and ancient enemies awaken, Rui Xuan rises from the dust — rewriting techniques, forging divine hybrids, and unveiling the truth behind the celestial betrayal that shattered time itself. But with each chapter the tome reveals, he is drawn closer to a name the heavens buried: THE INFINITE MONARCH.

In a desperate last stand on the ravaged battlefields of Mars, Sergeant Major Axel "Apex" Kael, a hardened US Marine MARSOC operator, is consumed by an alien weapon's blast. Instead of oblivion, he awakens in Aethelgard, a breathtaking world of ancient magic, sprawling ruins, and slumbering colossal mecha known as Starforged Sentinels. Disoriented but alive, Axel's formidable combat instincts kick in when he stumbles upon Princess Lyra Aethel and her royal guard under attack by the technologically advanced and ruthless Shadow Syndicate, the very invaders he fought on Earth. In a twist of fate, the dormant Starforged Sentinel, a legend tied to Lyra's royal lineage, awakens to Axel's touch, intuitively translating his unparalleled tactical prowess into the controls of the ancient war machine. A reluctant hero, Axel becomes the unexpected pilot of Aethelgard's greatest hope, using his modern military genius to turn the tide against the Syndicate's overwhelming forces. As Axel adapts to a world of swords, magic, and mystical technology, he finds himself drawn to the compassionate and resilient Princess Lyra. Their bond deepens amidst the crucible of war, as she learns from his pragmatic strength and he from her unwavering hope. Together, they must navigate political intrigue, unravel the mysteries of the Sentinels' past, and rally disparate kingdoms against the encroaching darkness. But as the war intensifies and the Void Regent, the Syndicate's enigmatic leader, makes his move, Axel and Lyra's connection will be tested, proving that even a warrior from another world can find a new purpose, a new home, and an unexpected love worth fighting for.

Saint Halstead Academy stands as the most prestigious school in the United Kingdom. To the outside world, it’s a place where the nation’s elite are shaped: scholars, leaders, and future icons. But if you dig a little deeper, you’ll find it’s also a hotbed for influence, politics, and quiet battles. Enter Sylvester Blackthorne, a seemingly unremarkable transfer student with impeccable manners and average grades. But don’t be fooled—there’s more to him than meets the eye. Calm, calculating, and always on the lookout, Sylvester glides through the hallways like a shadow. He has no interest in popularity, clubs, or accolades. All he craves is a little peace. Yet, peace is a luxury that someone like Sylvester can’t afford. As rivalries flare up, elections turn into psychological warfare, and secrets begin to surface, one thing becomes crystal clear: At Saint Halstead, power isn’t something you earn; it’s something you seize. And Sylvester? He’s not here to join their game. He’s here to change the rules.

[ON BREAK FOR PERSONAL REASONS]

In the war-torn world of Eltherion, where ancient gods have vanished and tyrants now rule through forbidden magic, a forgotten spark begins to awaken. Kael, a lowly blacksmith’s apprentice from the slums of Ardentia, never believed in prophecy, power, or destiny. But when a mysterious voice calls to him through fire, and a monstrous shadow hunts him through the streets, Kael discovers a truth buried beneath centuries of lies — he is the last of the Flameborn, descendants of a divine order sworn to protect the balance between light and darkness. Taken to the hidden Ember Sanctum by Seren, a powerful Flameborn warrior, Kael begins his transformation. Through brutal trials, haunting visions, and the awakening of fire magic deep within his blood, he must learn what it truly means to wield a god’s flame. But the Circle of Ash, a fanatical empire that hunts all who carry ancient power, has already found him. Their Inquisitors are coming — and they will stop at nothing to extinguish the last embers of rebellion. As the secrets of his past unfold, Kael must embark on a journey across shattered kingdoms, forbidden ruins, and dream-forged realms to unite the lost Flameborn and reclaim the Sword of Elarion — before the Void swallows the world.
