The First Deadly Sin

And so Arascus, God of Pride, waited. He waited for his defeat as the forces of Heaven & Hell combined descended upon him. He waited as they tried to kill him. He waited as they locked him away. He waited for a thousand years in that dark prison.

The Heavenly Dao exists. It decides what is right and what is wrong. To act against it is to sin, to act according to it is to be blessed by its graces. The world of cultivation is difficult, an unchanging principle. Yet there are those who are cherished by the Heavens, cuddled into rising above all and everyone else. How can this be? Why must this be? What is moral and just? What is evil and immoral?! WHY DOES IT GET TO DECIDE?! So we, the Sinners, we act against the Heavenly Daos, grasp our own fates in hopes of truly overturning them. This is a Journey of a young boy born Blessed, but turned Sinner. The greatest sinner of them all. ----- As some of you may know, I'm also the Author of Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies! This is my second project, and one I'm incredibly passionate about!

Eight homunculi girls, who consider each other as sisters, are brought to life in the Netherlands, Zuid-Holland, through advanced genetic engineering, each embodying one of the Seven Deadly Sins: Maeve, a Dutch princess, epitomizes pride; Benesha, of the aristocratic African Badila family, embodies wrath; Haniya Nadibun, a Moroccan girl, radiates lust; Mandane Esfahani, a Greek and Persian girl, personifies sloth; Eliza IJzerhart, from the wealthy Dutch IJzerhart family, exemplifies greed; Minah Sawada, a Japanese-Korean girl, manifests envy; and Kayla Graven, of Surinamese and Dutch heritage, represents gluttony. Maria, the eldest, was created without any singular sin, a supposed embodiment of perfection. However, this perceived flawlessness becomes her greatest curse. Shunned by her fourteen parents and seven sisters, Maria discovers she harbors the dormant essence of all seven sins, a power that awakens when she is abandoned. Consumed by grief and existential despair, Maria’s yearning for acceptance mutates into a thirst for vengeance. She questions her existence: was she nothing more than a prototype to ensure her sisters’ creation? Wrestling with rejection and her fractured sense of self, Maria vows to make her family experience the pain and emptiness that has defined her existence. Her quest for vengeance ignites a global catastrophe. Starting at the school she and her sisters attend, Maria unleashes a viral apocalypse, transforming humans into ravenous, vampire-like creatures. As the world crumbles, Maria’s inner turmoil and destructive power become a central challenge—not only for her sisters but also for humanity itself. Tasked with helping the homunculi overcome their sinful natures are Sansula Badila, Benesha’s human younger brother, and his partner, Hannah Katz. Their mission becomes even more urgent as they confront Maria, the most formidable and broken of the homunculi. Will they succeed in reforming Maria and her sisters, or will Maria’s darkness consume them all?

His life—a series of glamorous events and magazine covers—offers no escape from the emptiness that lurks beneath.

In the matriarchal kingdom of Masan, Princess Aiyara anticipates a bright future—she will inherit the throne once her mother, Queen Meilara, and father, King-Consort Masaru, depart on a bold mission to colonize an uncharted continent. Yet an unexpected eruption of raw power during the solstice festival shatters those plans. Weary of political intrigue and the condescension of foreign suitors, Aiyara unleashes a destructive force that injures guests and wrecks the palace, inadvertently revealing her capacity as a Sin Eater. Revered yet feared for consuming the sins of mortals without granting absolution, Sin Eaters endure a prolonged life but forfeit the familiar comforts of home and hearth. When Aiyara recovers from her ordeal, she learns she has lost her rightful claim to the throne: her nature as a Sin Eater makes her duty to Masan incompatible with traditional rule. Now exiled from the future she once took for granted, she must master the burdens of sin-consumption and confront the moral gray areas that surface in the shadows of every heart.

I'd always envisioned the devil, demons, and princes of darkness as redheaded, ugly beasts. But mine was a handsome gentleman. My introduction to the darkness was far more... refined. Mama had taken it upon herself to educate me on the intricacies of pleasing papa. I was schooled in the "dos and don'ts" of papa's delicate ego, and I had made it my mission to master each and every one of them. I was determined to be the perfect daughter, to earn his approval, his affection. But, no matter how hard I tried, I always seemed to fall short. His expectations were a moving target, and I was forever chasing an unattainable dream. But, nothing could have prepared me for the bombshell that was to come. Papa's birthday gift to me on my thirteenth birthday was a revelation that shook the very foundations of my existence. It was a moment that forever altered my perception of the world, of my family, and of myself. The memories of that fateful day still linger, a constant reminder of the darkness that lurked beneath the surface of our seemingly idyllic "Christian" family.

Is it Sin that makes one a sinner? Or is it Kin that makes one a sinner? Many say we are born innocent and untainted, and yet in Sin we are all related to one another. For we are one Kin, and with this Sin we share that we are born with. And even a certain doctrine holds that one's Kin, through the fact of birth, inherit a tainted nature with a proclivity to sinful conduct in need of regeneration… "I was brought forth in iniquity, and in Sin did my Mother conceive me." …or so the doctrine says, "We are all born sinners because of Kin that brings us together." …and so we think: we are born with Sin inherited from our Kin, But, should that hold us back from acting with virtue? No, we should not hold back, even when Sin entered the world through one Kin, and Death through Sin, and in this way, Death came to all beings, because all sinned, But even so, we all have freedom to be a being we want when we embrace Death, To be a fraudulent Human, To be a violent Angel, To be a benevolent Devil, And what one wants to be, neither "Sin" nor "Kin" should define what "Self" one is going to be, let "Journey" instead that defines one "Self"

Eren Kain was an ordinary engineer and inventor until the day the Tower of Trials appeared. A massive, otherworldly spire reaching into the heavens, the tower beckoned humanity with promises of power, wealth, and immortality—but also death. Unlike the others, Eren was forcibly bound to the Tower. No one else could enter until he began his climb, and he couldn’t leave unless he reached the top. Stripped of magic, aura, or any supernatural ability, Eren’s only advantage is his engineering genius and the technology he can smuggle in. From basic firearms to drones and exoskeletons, he uses every tool at his disposal to survive the monsters, traps, and bizarre ecosystems within the Tower. Yet even technology has its limits in a world governed by magic. As Eren climbs, he discovers the Tower isn’t just a trial but a puzzle. Its magic isn’t arbitrary—it’s systematic, a science he slowly learns to decode. However, one wrong calculation could kill him instantly, forcing him to balance experimentation with survival. He scavenges magic crystals, artifacts, and spell books, using them in crude, improvised ways to bolster his arsenal. Over time, he begins merging technology and magic, creating unique hybrid tools to overcome the increasingly insurmountable challenges. But why was Eren chosen? What secret does the Tower hold? With no escape and the weight of humanity’s fate on his shoulders, Eren must climb—not just to survive, but to unravel the truth of the Tower itself. every 50 collections I’ll give a chapter and every 20 powerstones I’ll give a chapter every 10 reviews I’ll give a chapter
