The Potters Return

I was just a 21-year-old college student pursuing an engineering degree, and like any other person my age, I hoped to secure a placement in a large company to support my family. However my life turned upside down the day when I, along with my friends, decided to go on a trip to the hills. The peaceful trip turned into our worst nightmare when a wounded, unknown man attacked us out of nowhere. That man was illogically strong, even with the injuries, and nearly killed all of us. But to save my friend, I grabbed him and jumped off the edge of the hill. I should have died there, but a strange holographic window appeared in front of me, declaring that I carried a unique bloodline and teleported me to an unknown world. I needed to survive in this unknown world and find out the answers—why I was still alive, why I was teleported here, and how I could return to Earth. But the more I traveled this unknown world ,the more I got tangled in its affairs, and I realized my bloodline wasn't as simple as it seemed.

In a world ruled by the sea and stained by the abyss, pirates chase glory, treasure... and godhood. They sail vast, cursed oceans teeming with monsters, haunted islands, and ancient secrets best left buried. Every creature—man or beast—can absorb the mysterious Abyssal Energy to grow stronger. But power comes at a price. The higher you rise, the less human you remain. Everyone relies on the Voice of the Void, a system interface that displays ranks, spells, and skills. It seems helpful—until it starts whispering. Watching. Feeding. Lucien, a fallen prince with a cursed bloodline, sails the treacherous oceans haunted by ancient horrors.  But he is different. When he dies, he doesn't truly die. Bound to Carrion Kronos—a soul-stealing crow forged from forgotten magic—his soul leaps into a new vessel each time he falls. Each death is a step toward something greater... or something monstrous. With a crew of broken dreamers and dangerous misfits, he sails into the heart of the unknown—chasing vengeance, freedom, and answers. Because this world’s system isn’t just flawed. It’s a trap. A ritual. A transformation. And the truth at the end of it all? Not everyone who ascends becomes a god. Some become something far worse. ### Author's Note: Welcome to the dark waters of the Abyssal Seas! This story blends pirate adventure with cosmic horror and LitRPG elements. Expect a slow burn that gradually reveals the sinister truth behind this world's power system. Our protagonist Lucien isn't your typical hero—he's a fallen prince with a dark past and an even darker future. Fair warning: This tale gets progressively darker as it unfolds. The horror elements will intensify as characters advance through the ranks, and the true nature of the Voice of Void becomes clear. Updates: 2 Chap/day Thank you for sailing with us into the abyss. May you retain your humanity longer than most. ### Additional tags: #LitRPG #Dark Fantasy #Pirates #Cosmic Horror #Lovecraftian elements #Revenge #Crew Building #Cursed Bloodline

--WSA 2025 ENTRY-- Neraxis saved the people and wiped out the monsters, but instead of cheers, he faced silence and a glowing blue text: [Task Failed Successfully!] [Rating Generated: SSS-Rank] "The hell does that even mean?" he muttered, finding the situation a bit strange. Before he could process, the so-called heroes—who had hidden while he fought—emerged. He waited for gratitude, only to feel a dagger pierce his back. The only girl he loved stood behind him. She betrayed him. The crowd and heroes? They were staring at him with disdain and contempt. "You..." he groaned as a spear and sword headed for him, ending his life. But instead of dying, he was sent back to the past—specifically, to the first day of the academy, year 2367, 8 years before his death. However, many things had changed. One of the most significant was the sudden appearance of a Tower, a mysterious structure that had appeared across all the continents, granting power to those brave enough to contest its challenges. "Not again... With this chance I will end you all" Neraxis vowed to himself, embarking on his path of revenge, while also trying to give his life new meaning. ***** Disclaimer: MC is not instantly going to be a villain, as his background is that of a hero.

Avery Carter tried her hardest to live the life of a perfect, submissive daughter. However, one day, someone appeared claiming to be her real daughter, declaring that Avery was fake. Without hesitation, Avery gave up her position as the "real" daughter and returned to her biological parents.

She transformed her mother and father’s lives, making them billionaires overnight. With a hundred billion dollars to her name, she became a master of technology and a talented woman, soaring straight to the peak of her life. But everything changed when she met Alexander Moran, a wealthy and handsome man. He was an absolute bigwig—decisive, cold, and callous. Yet, for some reason, he couldn’t stop tangling with her, always eager to give her all his love. On their first encounter, he said, "I'll give myself up as collateral." The second time they met, she questioned, "Why should I trust you?" After multiple encounters, his tone shifted. "You shouldn't have crossed this line, Avery, if you didn't want it to be like this." a sturdy arm wrapped around her swaying body. Her head grew hazy, and an intentional, hot sigh escaped her lips. 'How the hell did I get myself into this situation?' Avery thought, her mind spinning.

I gave them my everything. My time… my strength… my heart. I trained while they slept. I smiled when they laughed. I stayed… even when it hurt. And what did I get? Nothing. They looked at me like I was pathetic. Like, I didn’t belong. Like I was… less. But I... the naive person I am, continued trusting them. They told me to act like trash, fine—I became trash. They told me to act like a scumbag, fine—I played the role. However... One mistake, one single moment... That’s all it took. And they threw me away. But now… Someone else woke up in my body. A stranger, a man who doesn’t know the pain I suffered, but wears my face. Let’s see what he does with it. Because me? I’m done with this life, so to the soul who took over my body... This is your mess now… 'Gray'. –––––––––––– Discord: https://discord.gg/dp865x8BfZ - Tags: Villain MC | Gore | No-Yuri | No-Netorare | Kinky & Obsessed Heroines | Misunderstandings | Smart MC | Strength-based Social Hierarchy | Strong Love Interests | Sword & Magic | Strong Wealthy Characters | Special Abilities | Revenge |

"When she read, Lisa had always hated villains. In her defense, she never expected to become one." Lisa was an avid reader, and among all the books she loved, she had a new obsession: Beauty and Power, a book in which the main villain shared her name. The book began with two characters, Lisa and Eleanor, who, during a vacation trip, ended up getting lost in a cave and found themselves in the world of beasts. They were best friends and did everything together, so it was no surprise when both transmigrated to the same world. In the world of beasts, they were the most beautiful and caught the attention of the most powerful males. Over time, however, Lisa's envy and ambition grew stronger and stronger. The friends soon became rivals and then enemies. Lisa, the villain, led the fox clan against the tiger clan in the book’s final battle, where she was ultimately defeated by the protagonist, Eleanor. As a consequence of her sins, she was blamed for the war and sold into slavery. To ensure she could never manipulate anyone again, her tongue was cut out. That was the price she paid for her greed. "Now that was a great ending!" Lisa exclaimed, delighted by the story. However, she was far less thrilled when she woke up in the villain’s body. Sold as a slave and unable to speak, Lisa could only rely on her intelligence to survive in that body. But after all, what could she do with the body of a notorious criminal?

This time, he will not forgive. Yet even vengeance may not be enough to cleanse a world that deserves nothing—and a man who believes he deserves less.
