The Shield Slash

*From ancient times, the Devas—beings of divine power—protected humanity. But even gods can fall, and their corruption brought a terrible curse upon their immortality. Now, in a world where humanity has turned against divinity, ancient threats thought to be myths awaken in the shadows. *To combat this darkness, a new generation of divine beings is needed. Enter the Devangsh—fragments of gods living among humans. But are they free from the corrupt desires that doomed their predecessors, or will they fall as well? *Among them are five seemingly ordinary students balancing their lives among friends and loved ones while hiding their true origins. Their fragile peace shatters with the arrival of Akshay, a mysterious transfer student whose presence carries an unsettling aura. Is he a new ally or an ancient enemy? Calamities follow in his wake, shaking the foundations of their lives. *Loyalties will be tested, beliefs will falter, and as enemies rise, the Devangsh must confront their destiny. Will they rise to save the world—or succumb to the darkness within and around them?

In a world governed by six elemental powers, where no one can wield more than two without succumbing to destruction, balance has been the key to survival. But balance is fragile, and chaos is rising. Among the seven ancient families who once protected the world, a prophecy whispers of a Chosen One, a child born with the potential to wield all six powers. Yet this prophecy also brings a shadow—a fear that such power could either save the world or destroy it. The youngest heir of the seven families, a ten-year-old boy, lives unaware of his destiny. Like his six friends, he believes he can wield only two powers, unaware that his extraordinary spiritual strength has already begun to unlock something far greater. His parents and elders, haunted by the prophecy, recognize his unique gift—a bloodline so strong that it could awaken powers beyond comprehension. Their awe is matched by their fear: his potential could make him a savior, or the very force that plunges the world into chaos. When rival magical families, driven by greed and ambition, learn of the boy’s existence, they launch a devastating attack on the seven families, aiming to capture him and exploit his untapped potential. The elders, realizing the magnitude of the threat, make the ultimate sacrifice to protect their descendants. In a desperate act of magic, they send the heirs of each family—including the youngest—to a secret sanctuary, shielding them from the world while ensuring they can train and grow strong. Years pass, and the heirs, now young adults, must emerge from their hidden refuge to confront the chaos overtaking their world. The youngest, still unaware of his true potential, discovers the truth of his lineage and the prophecy that foretells his role as the Chosen One. But the journey ahead is fraught with peril. His ability to wield all six powers defies the natural order, and his spiritual strength makes him a target for those who would manipulate him—or destroy him. Guided by his six companions—four boys and three girls, each carrying their own family’s legacy—the Chosen One must navigate a world on the brink of collapse, uncover the secrets of his powers, and face the terrifying truth of his destiny. Will he restore balance, or will his existence bring the chaos he was born to prevent? In a tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the burden of unimaginable power, The Legacy of Seven explores the fine line between savior and destroyer, and the choices that define a hero.

[WSA 2025 Entry] The apocalypse is here, and it’s so overdone. Monsters? Check. Burning sky? Check. Random system that gives you powers but also wants your firstborn? Double check. In the middle of this mess are two guys who couldn’t be more mismatched if they tried: The Fool: A guy who’s spent his life perfecting the art of doing nothing. His resume includes “professional procrastinator”, “class clown”, “expert nap taker”, etc... Now he’s got to survive an apocalypse that didn’t even give him a heads-up. How rude. The Regressor: A guy who’s lived through the end of the world more times than he can count. Literally. Because he forgot. Now he’s just a brooding mess with a leather jacket and zero useful advice. When the fool realizes his classmate is a regressor, he’s like, “Great. I’m stuck with the guy who’s seen it all but remembers none of it. This’ll go well.” Yet, they will still group up and face trials that test their sanity more than their skills. But as the so-called End demands more blood and the regressor’s memories start to resurface, they realize the real apocalypse might be their inability to agree on where to hide. Can a lazy dreamer and a forgetful hero save the world? Probably not. But hey, at least they’ll have a good story to tell—if they survive. ________ __ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

"They told me the stars could guide me home, but they never said the journey would leave me so utterly lost." Do you still remember your highschool deskmate? The boy with the brightest smile, that girl with the world's most beautiful silhouette? In three years of high school, the shadows of two people intertwine with the chalk, black and white both distinct, drifting around within the memories. The Su Yuanzhou in her memories was an underachiever in high school. He skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. Yet, when she went back to the past she would always surprise herself for seeing a lot of his side, maybe if she did this before he probably wouldn't die. To be able to meet each other on this planet is some kind of fate, and to be able to illuminate our fleeting lives, how fortunate we are. ... Ren Yuxin was trailing behind Su Yuanzhou like a guilty puppy, her face plastered with an exaggerated pout. "Come here," Su Yuanzhou said, stopping in his tracks and turning to look at her. His tone was calm, but the slight twitch in his jaw betrayed his frustration. "Why?" Ren Yuxin asked, her voice overly cautious, taking a step back instead of forward. "Just come here." His patience was running thin. Ren Yuxin crossed her arms and tilted her head dramatically. "No! You’re going to hit me!" Su Yuanzhou froze, staring at her in disbelief. A few students nearby stifled their laughter, pretending not to watch the exchange. "I’m not going to hit you," he said, exasperated. "Do I look like that kind of person?" "Yes." Ren Yuxin nodded solemnly, her eyes wide with mock innocence. Su Yuanzhou sighed, rubbing his temples. How does she manage to drive me insane every single time? His patience—already minimal—was hanging by a thread. "Ren Yuxin," he said, his tone low and dangerous. "Come here. Now." "No way!" she retorted, taking another step back. "I know you’re mad because I—" She paused, looking guilty. "Because you what?" Su Yuanzhou prompted, narrowing his eyes. "... Because I accidentally sent that embarrassing video of you singing in the shower to our group chat," she admitted in a small voice, her eyes darting away. Su Yuanzhou’s face darkened instantly. He felt every shred of his dignity crumbling. "Accidentally?" he repeated, his voice rising. "It really was an accident!" Ren Yuxin protested, raising her hands defensively. "I didn’t mean to press send!" "Accident or not, you’re dead," Su Yuanzhou said, stepping toward her with purpose. "See! You are going to hit me!" she squealed, turning on her heels and running off. "Get back here!" he yelled, chasing after her.
