Alicent Hightower

Alice is a 28-year-old software developer. She makes money, donates to charities, and even gives food to the homeless. But, in truth, she could not be sadder. She has no friends and she and her family have been estranged ever since she came out of the closet to them. She tries to distract herself from her problems, right up until she suddenly dies. It is not the end, though. Alice is asked to make 3 wishes, 3 things she'd wish for if she were to be reborn.

She decides to try to live life to its fullest here, vowing that, above all else, she will live a meaningful life and, finally, FINALLY, find love! What she doesn't know, however, is that she's about to find more of that than she can handle. --- GL/Futa harem! Daily updates at 12 pm est.

Six years ago, Alice Anderson’s life was shattered in a single, heart-stopping moment. Pregnant with Jace Miller’s child, she faced the wrath of his father, Daniel Miller—a ruthless, powerful man who would stop at nothing to protect his family’s legacy. Terrified by his threats and with nowhere to turn, Alice fled the glittering chaos of New York, seeking refuge in the remote wilds of Australia. There, she gave birth to her daughter, Ava, and for six peaceful years, she built a quiet life far from the shadows of her past. But peace never lasts. A sudden, unexpected call from her mother draws Alice back into the life she thought she had left behind. Her return to New York comes with a bombshell revelation: Alice is the secret, illegitimate daughter of Michael Rodriguez, a business tycoon whose empire now belongs to her. The news sends shockwaves through the Rodriguez family. As Alice grapples with her newfound inheritance and the impending conflict within the Rodriguez family, her past collides with her present in the form of Jace Miller. Discovering that Alice has returned to the city—with their daughter—Jace is determined to rekindle the love they once shared. Her feelings are conflicted, and things become even more complicated when she encounters William Davis, a mysterious and magnetic rival to the Millers, who seems to have his own agenda. Captivated by William’s allure, Alice finds herself torn between the man from her past and the one who offers a dangerously seductive future. In a city where power and betrayal walk hand-in-hand, and love is as much a weapon as a desire, Alice must navigate the treacherous waters of wealth, family secrets, and ruthless ambition.

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings. And those awakened call the shots. Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could see, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.
