Puppet Master Twilight

They exist in human rumors and dwell in the shadows of the world. "Does this mean I will become a Kaidan?" In ancient times, they were worshipped as deities, empowered by faith. "Then I am a deity!" In more recent ancient times, they were regarded as demons and fed on fear. "I will become the master of Kaidan!" However, as the tides of time washed over, they gradually vanished, leaving behind only texts considered to be delusions. "To restore the glory of Kaidan is an undeniable duty of ours." But you are not yet a Kaidan, hmm, nor a person. "Well, becoming a Kaidan counts as success."

[The latest masterpiece by the author of Reverend Insanity] In the heart of a volcano, the mechanical fairy palace left by the ancients longed for a successor. The mother sacrificed her life to obtain the treasure seal of the fairy palace, entrusting it to Ning Zhuo on her deathbed. Buddha Heart Demon Seal! To deliver oneself to enlightenment, and others to demonhood. The bearer of the seal, by lightly engraving the Heart Demon Seal, could control mechanisms as if they were feathers.

Universes open to new realms, where natural beauty rivals the heavens. Ancient bells transmit the law, dancing under the moon's pure radiance. With the true form embodying myriad things, who in the world could contend!

Joon never asked to be isekai’d. One minute, he was living his painfully average life—dodging responsibilities, talking shit online, and absolutely not taking anything seriously. The next, he woke up in a mysterious tower filled with monsters, martial artists, and overpowered lunatics. Good news? He has a broken system that lets him copy enemy moves and make them twice as strong. Bad news? The system never shuts up, he’s constantly thrown into death matches, and somehow… he keeps winning in the most bullshit ways possible. From one-shotting martial arts masters to out-trolling ancient council members, Joon climbs the tower with a grin, a middle finger to logic, and a growing list of people who either want him dead… or worship the ground he walks on. But as he rises, so do the whispers of a legend—the Twilight Joker. A name feared. A title now tied to him. And if there’s one thing Joon knows, it’s this: He’s about to become the biggest fucking headache this world has ever seen.

Thus, Shen YiJun finds himself 'willingly' taken captive by the man he is supposed to stop. _____________ This is a story of Yu YongTian and Shen YiJun, disciples raised under the same sect and master but as incompatible as fire and ice.

[Puppet of the Gods / Kamigami no Kugutsu] Since the dawn of existence, two opposing forces have governed the world: Linear Fate and Boundless Fate. Linear Fate ensures absolute order, where every event is predetermined and unchangeable, while Boundless Fate embodies limitless possibilities, allowing free will to shape destiny. The Archons, self-proclaimed gods of the world, feared the chaos of free will and sought to eradicate it, forging an alliance with Linear Fate to suppress Boundless Fate and trap mortals in an unbreakable cycle of predestination. From the remnants of Boundless Fate and the last flickers of human defiance, Nazo was born. Unlike any mortal, he was untouched by Linear Fate’s and the Archon’s control, an anomaly with the potential to restore the shattered balance. However, the Archons recognized the danger he posed before he could ever realize his power. Knowing they can’t erase him yet and the fact that Boundless Fate was severely weaken, they’re able and did twisted him into their greatest puppet. From infancy, they manipulated his very existence, embedding within him a false purpose. He was raised as their enforcer, taught to believe that resisting fate was futile, that free will was an illusion, and that Linear Fate was the ultimate truth. His emotions were suppressed, his memories distorted, and his mind shackled in an unending cycle of obedience. Whenever a sliver of doubt arose, the Archons manipulated reality around him, ensuring that every attempt at defiance resulted in despair and failure. Yet, despite their efforts, the tiniest echoes of Boundless Fate still lingered within him. It was barely perceptible, but enough to spark questions. Enough for cracks to form in the Archons’ perfect world. Enough to make him wonder—could linear fate truly be change?
