Hero A Gone

Ethan Cross was just an ordinary college student in his past life—until he died trying to save a banker playing hero. Now, he finds himself reincarnated in "New World", a realm plagued by Dread Beasts, where only those who awaken Aethermarks can become Heroes. But there’s a problem. Ethan has awakened as an E-rank Hero, the weakest tier, cursed with only one ability slot—a death sentence for any aspiring warrior. With no powerful clans willing to recruit him and the world already looking down on him, his future seems bleak. Until he discovers his Innate Talent: Sanctum of Beasts. This mysterious power grants him access to a personal dimension, where he can hunt endless waves of Dread Beasts. Unlike the real world, slaying them in this space drops Ability Fragments, which he can combine to gain abilities without slot restrictions. Even better? Time flows differently—he can train for days, yet only an instant passes in reality. Determined to rise from nothing, Ethan embarks on a secret journey to accumulate power. But as he completes missions and unravels the truth about the Black Pits, he realizes there’s something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface. The Hero Association hides dark secrets. Villains roam freely in the shadows. And Dread Beasts may not be the mindless creatures everyone believes them to be. With powerful enemies watching his every move, Ethan must play a dangerous game—remain unnoticed or become the hunter of both beasts and men. But one thing is certain: In this world, strength is everything. And Ethan Cross will carve his own path to the top—no matter the cost.

In a world where ‘hero’ is a cursed word, I stand alone. They hate me. They fear me. But I have the power — and the burden — to save them. This is my final life, and I will not waste it.

The eyes are our primary source of information for everything. There are so many things that I haven't been able to accomplish. I wondered to myself... if my eyes were just like the others' eyes, would I be able to see? But neither did they see...

As a child with an unattainable dream, I yearned to become a Hero, but I veered off the right path. Looking back, my aspiration to save others was nothing more than a foolish dream. I now realize the magnitude of my sins and the impossibility of atoning for them.

Not being a hero isn't the issue. The only problem I'm facing right now is surviving in this world!

In a word where power set people apart and those who dont have it are seen as scum. Josh, a powerless induvidual is who has been looked down on ever since his birth still wants to achive someting with his life. He wants to prove to himself, and his friends that he is more than a dissapointment. Him and his brother Malrik set of to epic journeys to find his true purpose.

In the 21st century, Su Qi'an, a modern and virtuous young man, unexpectedly finds his soul transported to the feudal and backward dynasty of Da Liang—a fictional empire not found in history—after saving a girl from drowning. Born into a poor family with a virtuous wife, Su Qi'an initially aspired to use his status as a scholar to achieve official rank and lead a peaceful and prosperous life. However, he is caught in a chaotic era marked by drastic changes in Da Liang, a fractured imperial court, warring regional warlords, nomadic tribes threatening the northwest, and pirates rampaging in the southeast. To survive, Su Qi'an, a humble scholar from an impoverished background, rises from obscurity to become a legendary figure, sweeping across all opposition and uniting the land under one rule. Whether branded a treacherous rebel or a virtuous statesman, Su Qi'an is destined to be a true hero of his age. ✨Love this translation?

DEAD, DEAD GONE: EXPEDIAN 1.0 Music.. Space.. Adventure!!! The Expedian 1.0 was once a legendary starfighter of the elite Interplanetary Star Force, a beacon of power and precision. Now, sixty-five years later, it’s a forgotten relic, its once-mighty frame falling apart. But for Captain Zana Haw Jr, this battered vessel is more than just a piece of history—it’s home. Refitted as a cargo hauler, the Expedian 1.0 carries Zana and the Expedition Star crew across the galaxy, braving perilous missions to explore the unknown for Units and Glory. From ancient ruins to supernatural anomalies, they encounter strange alien species, cursed artifacts, and threats beyond comprehension. Along the way, they must outmaneuver rival treasure hunters, bounty seekers, and a growing conspiracy that threatens to consume the cosmos itself. But the dangers aren’t just out there. Within the crew, tensions simmer—Lady Geiren’s fiery temper clashes with Mage Vernan’s questionable loyalties, while Holden’s reckless antics push them into constant trouble. Meanwhile, Onion’s sharp intellect and Lopoea’s powerful telepathy prove invaluable as they navigate treacherous landscapes and impossible odds. As they delve deeper into the mysteries of space, one truth becomes clear: the past is never truly gone, and the Expedian 1.0 may hold the key to a future they never expected.

Reven didn't want to die. He didn't deserve death. Transported into the first floor of the dangerous dungeon, Reven was forced to face death from the start. Slowly he became proficiency in the art of killing. As he increased his strength, Fate had come knocking on his life. Bounded by Fate, Tempered by Pain.

Superpowers appeared suddenly plunging the world into chaos. Wars broke out, countries were destroyed, and the powers spread like a plague. 100 years later powers became the norm, countries all collapsed, and The Watch rose up to protect the world. Life was black and white. The heroes fought the villains and saved the day, the villains did bad things and were defeated. That’s how most children saw it. Peter Het never should have seen it that way, but he did - until his image of the world burnt in front of his eyes. Levi Winter always saw it that way - until the world gave him reason to. Both wanted to try and make a difference using the powers they'd been born with. One had planned to help the world by being the perfect hero, the other by killing the people he saw as responsible for the problems that polluted the world. Neither found themselves doing what they’d imagined. The one seeking to be a hero became a criminal, the one seeking vengeance became an icon of heroes. Their paths in life diverged like streams rushing down a mountain and are then brought back together to cascade over the edge into a new unknown. Both are seeking peace in the unceasing hurricane of life and the violence they can’t escape, and they’ve come to realize that ‘hero’ is nothing more than a title.

___Lost Notes___ In this age of superheroes, the public safety is at the hands of these all so powerful figures. Located in the metropolis of Condor is the worlds strongest hero, UltraMan. In his decade long carrier, he has destroyed multiple conspiracies started by the city's old elite, single handedly apprehended the mafias that encroached upon the weak and feeble and even stopped several alien invasions and infiltrations. It is safe to assume that such a man would have many enemies, but with skin that cannot be pierced by any earthly means and strength that puts the legends of old to shame, how can such a creature ever be defeated? If UltraMan wanted to, he could have conquered earth at any time. So why did he not? No one quite knows. '' In any regards, he is seen as the balancing force of the world. So what happens if he is removed from the picture? What if I removed him? How will the world live? How will "I" live? ....

Somehow, I don't know how for sure, though, I've been sent to the world of my favorite game, Skyrim. The longer I'm here, the more I notice that this world is real. Not simply realistic, but real. Everything I do has an effect on the world, either good or bad, especially in the case with the storylines. I love Skyrim, but I'm not going to be able to survive here, right? How do I get out? Getting out isn't even the beginning of my problems. The longer I stay here, the more I realize – things are different, and not necessarily for the better. -------------- As embarrassing as this is, this is a Skyrim fanfic. It's probably permanently in progress, as I'm mainly just using it as a drawing board to practice writing storylines for games. Writing it out is just a fun way I've got for going about it. I've also written this in a style so that people who haven't played any of the Elder Scrolls series of games can read it as well. I warn you, though, there's a *lot* of words. Side note: I've also got this story on other sites/apps, in case you want to read it there. -------------- This is also a challenge to That Guy Right There. This is a combination of how I would write the fanfic you made, along with the fact that I got tired of waiting for the author, That Guy Right There, to finish his story, "Living Skyrim." It's pretty good, y'all should check it out. However, Guy's mc is an asshole, so I warn you now. The puns he makes are also kinda bad. So I challenge you, Guy. I'm gonna write my version of how it'd go, and you finish yours (unless you died.) This is a direct copy from my work on my other accounts on various reading/writing apps. Check that one out, too. It doesn't matter to me which you support, cuz I'm not monetized by any. I'm just the writer, man.

I recently started a new book as a re – and – better – run of this book's concept, titled: I AWAKENED A DIVINE CURSE In a world where one's worth is determined by Archons—godlike entities who watch over everything—the least you can hope for is to get picked by the most lowly of them. Raith was chosen by the Archon of failure and death. Having emerged from one of the three greatest family, he was forced to leave the family and began a lonely journey of being a Hero as he has always wanted. Hero–that was the only way Raith could redeem himself and be acknowledged by the world. But this Archon is just too useless! However, everything changes on the day when Raith dies for the first time.
