The Hero of Destiny

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. Therefore, please feel free to point out any mistakes whether in the plot or in the grammar. Every comment and review is important for me. Also, since I've just started, I know the quality is very poor but I promise that it will improve overtime so please bear with me. As I'm not much experienced in this field, the pacing is really slow for now but once the world building and the magic system is in place, the pacing is going to increase. Thank you :)] ***Please keep in mind that the novel is purely based on fiction and it has no relation with real names or real events. The names in the novel are just a fragment of imagination and does not refer to anyone or anything!***

Arcadia— Heroes Of Relics

Updates every 10:00PM UTC+7 Centuries ago, a mysterious meteor descended upon the Earth. Instead of wiping all life forms on the planet, it terraformed the Earth, transforming both living and non-living things alike. This event was called the Great Meteor Fall. Monsters and Beasts appeared and proliferated on the land, causing a shift to the ordinary lifestyle people once knew. Humans also underwent changes thanks to the meteor. Some were granted supernatural powers, and some were granted strength. With these changes, mankind concluded that life will never be the same. The rise of adventurers and guilds was only a few things brought about by the change. Those who wielded great power became prominent figures. But this was just the beginning. The ground zero of the meteor, where it descended, became the territory of a powerful entity known as the Dark One. No one knew where he came from, but rumors said he was inside the meteor when it landed. The energy levels in ground zero were so potent that an average human wouldn't be able to survive it. As such, only high-ranking adventurers could enter it with great difficulty and survive. However, no one came close to the fortress of the dark One, built on top of the meteor itself. As years passed, the monsters and beasts became more powerful, and the adventurers struggled to keep up. But there was no real threat. The Dark One didn't seem to care for Earth's inhabitants, or maybe he was in deep slumber, awaiting his awakening before he invaded Earth. It was foretold, however, that the Dark One was close to awakening, and the powerful monsters and beasts were a clear sign of it. Backed into a corner, the countries were forced to rely on forbidden technology to combat the upcoming invasion. Messing with the space-time continuum, mankind was able to summon influential and powerful people from the past. They became known as Heroes of Relics. These heroes partied up and became Earth's last line of defense against the oncoming invasion. Albrecht Stein was part of the Heroes of Relics. However, he was kicked out of the party since they no longer needed a porter. His only particular skill was spatial storage space, and he was just an additional headcount, so they kicked him out. Just like the other Heroes, he was transported to the future with the sole purpose of defeating the Dark One. But now that his purpose was gone, he decided to live a quiet life in the countryside. That is until the final countdown was issued, and the world's destruction drew near.

Bigshot Wants To Return Home And Retire

The top boss in the capital, Master Lou, suddenly found his thighs hugged by a baby with pigtails. He even cried and called him daddy. Master Lou, "Who are you?" The baby, "I'm your son!" Master Lou, "????" The baby swindled Master Lou into going to the countryside to look for his mother. Song Wei recognized the man's face and immediately closed the door in his face. "Sorry, you've found the wrong person. His mother is next door." Master Lou held her hand as she was about to close the door and gave her a meaningful smile. "Woman, how have you been?" Later on… the news of Master Lou fetching his wife back from the countryside and having a child spread like a wildfire in the capital. The capital's socialites cried, "How can a village woman be worthy of our Master Lou?" Song Wei said, "You guys are right!" The baby was dissatisfied. "My mommy is young, pretty, and has a good figure. A medical expert is begging her to teach them. A top hacker is her assistant…" Song Wei gritted her teeth and covered the baby's mouth. "Shut up!" She had finally retired to the countryside to live a carefree life in her retirement, but all of this was ruined by her son! Her son even unknowingly proclaimed that she was extremely capable, causing a group of socialites to come and provoke her. Song Wei could not bear the description and rolled up her sleeves with her hands on her hips. "Come, if one of you comes, I'll kill one. If two come, I'll kill two!" When Master Lou heard the news, he smiled and warned everyone, "My wife came from the countryside. She's ignorant and afraid of strangers. Don't bully her." The socialites were furious. "Who can do that?!"
