--- **Synopsis:** In a universe where gods wage war and mortals suffer the fallout, a young boy named Aetheris Lucernas Abaddon is born into a world that neither welcomes nor understands him. His origins are shrouded in mystery, with whispers of an impossible union that defies all known laws of existence. From the moment of his birth, it was clear that Aetheris was different—something beyond comprehension. As a child, Aetheris felt the pull of ancient forces, whispers from beings older than time itself, urging him toward a destiny steeped in darkness and grandeur. With each passing year, his power grew, shaping him into a figure that could transcend the boundaries of reality. No longer merely a boy, Aetheris became a living legend, an entity that embodied both sin and salvation, hope and despair. But with this power came a relentless burden. Gods, monsters, and mortals alike demanded that Aetheris use his unimaginable strength for their purposes. They pleaded, they threatened, and they schemed, each seeking to control the force that he had become. Aetheris, however, was not one to be controlled. "I am the beginning and the end!" Aetheris declares, his voice resonating through the very fabric of the universe. "I am beyond your understanding, beyond your gods and your nightmares. The power I hold is mine alone!" As he defies those who seek to bend him to their will, the consequences of Aetheris's choices ripple across the cosmos. His actions stir entities long forgotten, and the mortal realms tremble as the line between creation and destruction blurs. Chaos spreads like wildfire, and the very universe teeters on the brink of collapse. Yet, in the midst of this cosmic upheaval, Aetheris faces a harrowing truth: in his relentless pursuit of power, he may have become the very force of chaos he once sought to escape. *The Inception of Mayhem* is the story of Aetheris Lucernas Abaddon, a tale of ambition, power, and the thin line between humanity and monstrosity. As his choices threaten to reshape the destiny of all, Aetheris must confront the darkness within and decide whether he will be the savior of his world—or its greatest downfall. ...

Since time immemorial, a brutal war between humans and demons scorched the earth, leaving the world on the brink of eternal darkness. For centuries, humanity struggled against the tides of chaos, until the divine Devas, supreme gods of light, intervened. With their aid, humans finally crushed the demon legions, and hope for peace flickered at last. But just as the end of war seemed within reach, the Demon Lord unleashed one final, catastrophic curse—one that would forever alter the balance between good and evil. Instead of fading into myth and legend, the war spilled across time, stretching its dark claws into the modern world, entwining itself with the fate of a new generation. Enter Aramiya Ryuu, a seemingly ordinary high school student in a quiet town—until strange, unsettling events begin to unravel his everyday life. As shadows stir in the corners of his world, his dormant powers awaken, pulling him into a realm of magic, danger, and hidden truths. With mysterious new allies at his side, Ryuu must quickly learn to master the powers within him—powers he doesn’t yet understand, but which may be humanity’s last hope. The demons are relentless, and the forces they serve now wage war in the modern era, threatening to plunge the world into chaos once more. As he delves deeper into the truth behind the Demon Lord’s final curse, Ryuu finds that his own past is entwined with dark secrets, ones that could reshape the future of humanity—and the war itself. In the face of unimaginable threats, he must confront his destiny, balancing love, loyalty, and the weight of a world that rests on his shoulders. Will Ryuu rise as the hero humanity needs, or will the demons finally succeed in their quest for domination? As old battles merge with new dangers, the ancient, eternal war begins again—this time, in a world far more vulnerable to its dark power..... https://www.royalroad.com/profile/510301

After the betrayal of Luciferel, and having to deal with the Nephilim problem God made a few changes to how Heaven was run. Time does not quite flow the same in Heaven, so God was able to draw inspiration from millennia of human history. In the end, God chooses to structure things like a mega-corporation with him as the CEO and his archangels acting as department heads. To keep the threat of another angel rebellion to a minimum, every few years the angels would be ordered to change departments. To ensure that things ran smoothly and that the communication between departments happened in a timely fashion a Heaven-wide internet was established called Godnet. Due to an accident caused by mistaken identity, John Smith was killed by an angel on her first day in the Department of Death. By the time she released her mistake, it was far too late to "just" put him back in his own body. In an effort to correct her mistake the angel tried to have John Smith be reborn in the universe she originally was supposed to have a John Smith die in. The Angel was originally in IT for Godnet so she thought that it would be not too difficult to hide her little oops by altering a few records. However, she got a call from Upper Management during the process of having John be reborn. Figuring the " proper" department would step in to finish the process, the angel left to report to upper management, not wanting to receive an even bigger punishment than what she was already going to receive. In her rush to leave, she forgot to close down the connection to Godnet.

For, through the world of Avaloria, a promise of eternity whispered the tale of deceit cloaked beneath the veil of truth. Redemption; the chance for the realm to stand once more against world-ending doom, the legends whispered. But amidst these clambering threats, the people of Arvindor turned a blind eye, entwined in their own pursuits. And here, in the heart of Arvindor, are our heroes introduced. Strong ones walk the earth with the strength of behemoths amidst the chaos. Their presence, palpable; the kings and lords who wage wars of conquest are blind to the impending threat as power-hungry rulers ravage the land in their quest for supremacy. Resources are not just plundered; the land itself bleeds under the weight of their ambition, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. In that endless abyss of power struggles, could a new hope rise—a flower yet to bloom in the dark? Or will it crumble in corruption, snuffed like a light before it had the chance to shine in full brilliance? Will compassion remain but a flicker of light amidst the shadows, or will it die tragically, leaving the world in darkness unyielding? As the world teeters on the brink of chaos, Avaloria's fate dangles at the balance, relying solely on the intentions of those who possess its future in their hands. Let us meet Valcroy Everheart, a young squire who has just finished his training as a Page to the House of Frostborne and started his journey as a young squire, attending the Heir of Frostborne, Erik Frostbourne, of the same age as he is. Follow them as they both get lost in the world of Avaloria and discover the secrets that were not meant to be known and deception that tied the Compassion. One Day I Will Find The Words And They Will Be Simple

The Beginning of the Beginnings invites readers into a sweeping epic of creation, rebellion, and ultimate redemption, where cosmic forces clash and divine realms unfold in a spectacular fusion of biblical inspiration and high fantasy. Before time began, Yahweh forged Heaven and Higher Heaven—vast, awe-inspiring realms filled with angelic beings, from the earliest primordial spirits to towering celestial warriors. For ages, peace reigned. But Lucifer, once the brightest of angels, dared to challenge the Creator. His insurrection ignites the First War in Heaven, as a third of the angelic host rallies to his side, shaking the foundations of eternity. While Heaven and Hell collide in cosmic battle, Yahweh brings forth humanity in the Material World, introducing the gift—and peril—of free will. But Lucifer’s darkness soon taints this new creation, leading to the Fall of Man and unleashing trials that threaten Earth’s very soul. Amidst this turmoil, Yahweh’s intervention takes a personal form through Jesus Christ, a beacon of hope and salvation, as humanity struggles between light and shadow. The story crescendos with explosive battles, as angelic armies and demonic legions wage war across divine realms. Archangels face the princes of Hell in breathtaking encounters, while the Lake of Fire stirs with ancient powers and the Last Dragon of Light awakens, heralding the final confrontation. The fate of all existence teeters on the edge as good and evil, faith and betrayal, collide in the ultimate showdown. In The Beginning of the Beginnings, readers will find a richly layered universe where familiar biblical themes are given new life, woven with thrilling fantasy and gripping stakes. This is the story of divine creation, rebellion, and the unbreakable resolve of the forces of light—an unforgettable journey into the origins of good and evil, faith and sacrifice, and the eternal quest for redemption.

Getting transmigrated inside a novel is not really a bad thing—you know the story, you have the power of the future in your hand, you know all the hidden keys. You might as well end up as the most powerful and omniscient being in that world. That is, if you don’t wake up during the epilogue. And yet I find myself in the body of a fallen priest at the end of the novel, a tragic hero who had his mana circuit broken in the last war, being shunned, drown in debt, and destined to die not long after. Fortunately, I know just the cure. Unfortunately, the cure was in the hand of one of the Demon Lords—you know, the race that my kingdom just wage war with. Would he give me the cure if I asked him politely? There’s no harm in trying, right? I’d die if I didn’t get the cure, anyway. “Sure, but you have to be my bride as the price,” the Demon Lord said. ...huh? Sir, you know I’m (technically) a priest, right?

Hunter Tamaniel was a simple student with a somewhat ordinary life.

The Eiyu Empire, once envisioned as the foundation of eternity by Taiko Hideyoshi, has fallen prey to decay.

Oh, where do I even begin with this epic tale of the world of the four realms? Let me paint you a picture of a world beyond your wildest imagination, a world created by not just one, but Six almighty Gods, over a billion years ago! The Six Almighty Gods created Arcana, the realm of the Gods. Olympia, the realm of the Celestials, who were children of the Gods. Lyra, an empty realm. And the Abyss, the realm of the dead. Now, let's talk about Lyra, the third realm. Picture this, a vast and empty realm, devoid of any life. But then, the Six Gods didn't just leave it empty, they created not one, not two, but eight different races of lower beings to inhabit it! Can you even fathom the sheer scale of creativity and imagination it must have taken to create such diverse and fascinating creatures? We have Monsters, Demons, Elves, Giants, Humans, Dwarves, Fairies, and Beasts, all living together in Lyra. Our story focuses on Jordan, the lazy genius second prince of the mighty Wolf clan. After leaving the Underground Tower - his home for 21 years, he arrives at the Wolf clan city to take over as leader, but instead, he unites all the fifteen monster clans under him. And with that he created the most powerful empire on the continent, The Northern Empire. When other races discovered the new nation of monsters, one human kingdom decided to wage war against them, thinking they were a new and weak kingdom. This war sets off a chain reaction that triggers the Great Change - a series of events that transform the world in ways both destructive and evolutionary. But the new Empire was in no way weak. Jordan and his empire went to war on the human kingdom and three of the six demon lords. Jordan used this war to solidify the standing of his Empire in the continent and gain authority among the Kings and Queens of the Mavis continent. But all this was just a means to an end for Jordan's ultimate goal. When he left the Underground Tower, he discovered that The Veil used to trap the Demon race was about to break. And with that, the release of the Demon Legion, the largest and most powerful army on the continent. Now Jordan must rally not just the monsters, but all other five races: Elves, Giants, Humans, Dwarves and Fairies, together and face against the powerful demon army. War, death, and destruction ensue, and amidst the chaos, Jordan finds himself at the center of it all.

Title: 万界独尊 (Sovereign Across Myriad Realms) Synopsis: In the infinite sea of existence, countless realms rise and fall under the gaze of the heavens. From mortal kingdoms to celestial domains, each world is but a fragment of the vast tapestry of creation. At the peak of all stood Ji Tianhao, the one who defied fate and conquered the heavens. He waged war across realms: ancient worlds where titans roamed, spirit realms ruled by divine beasts, and celestial heavens where immortals governed the laws of existence. With his unmatched might, he subdued them all—gods, demons, and primordial beasts. Yet, at the pinnacle of his journey, Tianhao faced the ultimate adversary: The Eternal Abyss, the source of all creation and destruction. Though he stood undefeated, Tianhao realized the futility of his conquests. In his final battle, rather than perish, he invoked an ancient art, shattering the river of time. His soul was cast back 100,000 years to his birthplace, the humble Primordial Spirit World. There, he would rise once more, not only to defy the heavens but to seize control of his destiny.

In the second millennium of the glorious Lightless Age, the domains of twelve cosmic architects encompassed the sea of stars. Under their guidance, the cursed human race lifted the bloody banner of prosperity and conquered planet after planet, unrestricted by the laws of the universe. With millions of mutants roaring behind her in support, the Empress of a dead star declared, "I shall lead my people to the peak of the universe, standing unmatched over all civilizations, enjoying the world as our bounty!" Helming the lost mothership of a forgotten conqueror, a nameless ghost waged the most brutal galactic war, his goal— "To reclaim the Holiest of Cosmic Domains, the Infinite Continuum where immortality is no myth!" Basking in the darkness of the anti-star, a cautious force built an unstoppable fortress, each worker whispering the first precept: “Free will is the source of all disorder, being begets chaos." The fate of the universe seemed to be sealed in the hands of these forces, and it would have been so in truth, had it not been for one existence. This was someone who had once stared at the sky with a calculating look and claimed, "If an undying monarch schemes against me, I will tear apart their body with my hands; if it is a Transcendental Monstrosity, I will raze down its spirit with my soul; and if any cosmic architect stands on my path, I will conquer its domain with my mutant army!"
