However, unknown to him, the fates of both himself and his younger brother had already been sealed at the moment of their birth. Thrown into a living hell at a young age, he did everything he could to survive. After years of unimaginable struggle, he and a few others finally managed to escape from the hell they had been thrown into. But by the time he emerged from that hell, he could no longer be considered a human being. Transforming from prey to a deadly predator, he mercilessly hunted down and killed everyone responsible for his suffering. Yet, even after completing his revenge, he felt no joy or satisfaction as his emotions had long since died in that place of despair. Attempting to live a normal life after enduring such brutality, he failed miserably. On his 20th birthday, just as he had resolved to soon end his miserable and arduous life—everything changed! The world he knew began to collapse before his very eyes, engulfing him in utter darkness... And when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a place that felt both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. People who once seemed known now appeared as strangers, and the line between memory and reality blurred...

So picture this: you wake up in a rusty, beetle-shaped contraption sliding sideways across a murder-dune in a place called Scarragon. Your shoulder is basically shredded toast, your memory's fuzzy, and there’s absolutely no customer service in sight. That was Grahilo’s morning. Then things got weird. After limping through the desert like a very angry tumbleweed, he spots a glowing green orb chilling in the sand like it’s waiting for a meet-cute. The orb hypnotizes him. Forces him to swallow it. Cue excruciating cosmic body reboot. There’s screaming, convulsing, and then—boom. New upgrade unlocked: silver hair, neon eyes, and gamma veins that look like someone installed a nuclear reactor in his circulatory system. After that? He tests out his fancy powers. Accidentally punches the ground so hard it opens an ancient ruin. Then he raises his hand and materializes a black dagger with green runes and “probably haunted” vibes. Grahilo officially levels up from "lost desert guy" to "walking superhero origin story." Kirigaar, the city that kicked him out like last season's leftovers? They’re about to regret that. Grahilo vows to leave Scarragon completely and start fresh in a new country. One small problem: the country is dealing with portal chaos. Monsters, energy signatures, things that snarl and break physics. Naturally, Grahilo decides to join the local defense force. And while he might not understand the rules, he’s got glowing eyes, punch magic, and void daggers. He’s the guy they didn’t ask for—but might just need. Expect mystical relics, combat training, teammates who aren’t sure if he's a threat or a miracle, and one gamma-born outcast rewriting his fate with every sarcastic thought and every step forward.

Gifted with the power to absorb mana, evolve endlessly, and name lesser beings into powerful allies, Kael begins his ascent. He tames monsters, crushes demons, and rises through a world that fears his very existence. He is no chosen one. He is no savior. He is the Abyssborn — and he will reshape the world not with light… but with shadow.

Where warriors are born A novel about sisterhood, struggle, and secrets. Deep in the forests of the kingdom, where no map dares to point, there is a village invisible to the eyes of the world. There, nameless, homeless girls are trained to become the Guardians, a secret sisterhood of warriors whose only duty is to protect... and protect each other. Yuli, an orphan marked by her past, arrives at this sanctuary unaware that she is about to forge a new life, a new family, and a destiny that will confront her with buried truths, invisible alliances, and an enemy lurking in the shadows. In this sacred place, ruled by an elderly woman as wise as she is indomitable, known as La Tía, more than just strength is cultivated: the courage of those who decide to fight for love, for loyalty, and for those who can no longer do so is sown.

Their feud begins in the university's ruthless student council, but as media scandals, assassination attempts, and family vendettas mount, their rivalry unexpectedly gives way to something deeper—love.

With city control dangling between crooked businessmen and crumbling political legacies, the two lovers must choose: uphold the systems that raised them—or burn them all down for a chance at something real. As family secrets surface, disguises unravel, and alliances shatter, Jamie and Bernard’s love is tested by betrayal, media firestorms, and arranged marriages.

“What you sacrifice is what you become.” In a world where power is carved from curses, contracts, and forbidden rituals, one boy offers everything—his name, his soul, and even the right to breathe freely—in exchange for a single truth: why was he spared when everyone else died? Born with nothing but a cursed mark and a forgotten past, he awakens a system unlike any other—one that doesn’t reward strength, but sacrifice, intelligence, and will. Each technique comes at a cost. Each domain reflects the deepest scars. And in this world, names have power—but his is missing. Thrust into a fractured world of cursed relics, hidden factions, and divine laws long broken, he must navigate twisted exorcist guilds, unstable allies, and ancient beings that feed on despair. Every choice he makes echoes with consequences. Every power he gains is a step closer to losing himself. But he is not here to be a hero. He is not here to be saved. He is here to burn the system to the ground—and remake it in the image of those he lost. --------------------------------------------------- Perfect for fans of: Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, Jujutsu Kaisen, Shadow Slave, Reverend Insanity.

"I will touch the stars... or die trying." ==================== Note: NO R-18, R**e, Romance or pre-marital handholding. I take no pleasure in writing such things. There's a bunch of killing and gruesome descriptions though. The novel is a bit slow in the first chapters, but after that, it picks up and gets significantly better. Also, the power system is similar to BotDS, but I've asked the author for permission to use it. It's also heavily inspired my writing, but the beginning is where its most prevalent.

A pulse that has waited for centuries beneath the skin of the earth, spinning dreams from shattered skulls and nesting nightmares in stone wombs. The ones above call it the Abyss. They are wrong. It is the echo of everything we’ve tried to forget— every buried god, every silenced scream, every name erased by time and shame. Those who descend with fire in their hands believe they are hunters.
