Ether Online was a VRMMORPG that captivated players with its expansive world and fantastic creatures like vampires, angels, demons, and elves. Willow was just another player... well, actually, he was among the unlucky few stuck with the Explorer class—great for support, but pitiful in combat. Luckily, that all changed when he discovered the Grimoire of Eros in the Cave of Greed, allowing him to switch to the Divine Seducer class. But this transformation happened on the same day that Ether Online’s servers shut down for good. Still, Willow went to bed feeling content, as though he had finally closed a chapter. Until... [THE TUTORIAL ENDED.] He awoke under a blue sky, lying on lush green grass. It didn’t take long to realize that he was somehow in the world of Ether Online itself—and this time, there was no logout option! [You have unlocked the Unique Skill “Transparent Lasso.”] "Hm! So now I can measure my relationships with hearts? What's this—an eroge?!" [You have unlocked the Unique Skill “Vision of Eros.”] "WHAT?! Does this mean I can sense people's intentions, feelings, and essence? It’s basically like reading their character files!" [You have unlocked the Unique Skill “Carnal Bond.”] "The description says: 'When you reach a high emotional bond with someone and become intimate, all your attributes will permanently increase'... THAT’S AMAZING!"

In the enchanting world of Aetheria, where magic is woven into the very fabric of existence, an ancient prophecy stirs from the depths of forgotten lore. The once harmonious realm teeters on the edge of chaos as whispers of looming darkness spread like wildfire, unsettling nobles and villagers alike. The delicate balance that upheld peace is faltering, and the fate of Aetheria hangs by a fragile thread. Aric, a humble blacksmith's apprentice in the serene village of Eldenbrook, dreams of adventures beyond his anvil. His life is irrevocably changed when mysterious flames consume his village and shadowy creatures emerge from the Forbidden Forest's depths. Thrust into a destiny he neither sought nor understands, Aric must leave behind the familiar to embrace the extraordinary. Crossing paths with Lyra, a warrior shrouded in mystery and wielding powers she scarcely reveals, Aric embarks on a perilous quest to unravel the secrets of a prophecy that threatens to engulf Aetheria in darkness. Their journey takes them through treacherous landscapes—from ancient ruins hidden beneath towering mountains to the elusive city of Lumaria, bathed in ethereal light. Along the way, they gather a band of unlikely allies, each bearing their own burdens and hidden agendas. Friendships are tested as shadows deepen and betrayals come to light. The line between friend and foe blurs, and Aric grapples with challenges that demand not just bravery, but profound sacrifice. Will they restore balance to a shattered realm, or will darkness prevail?

In a world where kingdoms are fractured by centuries of war, betrayal, and powerful ancient magic, Valerian, a young man with a mysterious past, emerges from the ashes of his fallen empire. With a formidable mastery of dark magic, he is both feared and rejected by those he meets. But instead of abandoning his quest for truth and justice, Valerian decides to forge his own path, rebelling against the fate the world has chosen for him. Guided by his thirst for vengeance against the Emperor responsible for the destruction of his family and his kingdom, Valerian embarks on an epic adventure through lands steeped in legend. Along the way, he surrounds himself with unlikely allies: the Queen of Spirits, an ethereal creature embodying the wisdom and mystery of the elements; the Queen of the Winged, with her fierce charisma and majestic wings; and the Princess of the Descendants of the Ethereal and Dream Tree, guardian of an ancient and forgotten magic. As he navigates political intrigue, power struggles, and wars between realms, Valerian must face fantastical creatures, relentless mercenaries, and enemies who manipulate the forces of chaos for their own ambitions. But the greatest test for him will be to reconcile his dark nature with the desire to protect those he loves. Only by allying himself with these powerful women, each carrying their own burdens and secrets, can Valerian challenge the Emperor in a decisive final battle. As magical machines threaten to shift the balance of power, he discovers that dark magic, far from being a curse, may be the key to saving his world—if only he can master the darkness that consumes it. In this epic tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption, Valerian must choose between vengeance and the creation of a new world order. The fate of the kingdom rests on his shoulders, and only his heart, guided by the bonds he forges through his encounters, can lead him to the dawn of a new kingdom.

"Run!" my father exclaimed. Once more, please! I have spent nearly my entire life running. I got really good at it eventually, and it was helpful. Being a werewolf who was unable to shift at the age of twenty made me feel different, and naturally, the rest of my family and the pack shunned me. This seemed to be Luna's fate. With her ‘inabilities’ all around her, Luna was a lone wolf without her usual disposition. At the darkest hour of the night, with the moon in full view, a strange figure hovered over the house and crawled into her room, casting its shadow over her as she slept. It was without form and void. The only distinctive feature was the icy eyes which looked like they contained icebergs. Its presence was so strong as well, the extreme drop in temperature made her wake with a start. The eyes glowed even more as fire danced beneath it's mirth, as it caressed her lips with its fingers while whispering, “The time is now”. With a creepy laugh, it vanished. The voice is deafening, ringing in my ears, voices in my ears for many years but it's worse now. My vision blurred and I could see red eyes flashing through and through. Like a vortex, the voice plunged me into a darkness that was thicker than normal. I shut my eyes in fear of the unknown as I spiralled deeper into the never-ending darkness. I was gone for as long as I was drawn into the darkness. A flash of light sparked in her head so painful it forcefully drew her out of the darkness and caused her to open her eyes. The white light which reflected what seemed like a battle between ice and fire glowered out of them. She looked ethereal yet evil, an angel but had the look of a devil as she made various moves of getting up slowly. She stood by the window as a gush of chilling wind and cold hit the room she was in. She heard a whimper and standing behind her was the biggest, fiercest creature that immediately pounced on her. What happened to Luna? A shift had occurred in the realm. Why her sudden disappearance? ‘The time is now!’ Would she ever be free from the never-ending clutches surrounding her? Mate. Where was he in this whole scenario? Most importantly, who is Luna?

Samantha never expected to find magic in her hometown, let alone in a dimly lit bar on a rainy Tuesday night. Yet here she was, perched on a barstool at the Black Swan, her world about to tilt on its axis. The air thrummed with an otherworldly energy she couldn't quite place. Ethereal dancers moved like smoke across the floor, their bodies fluid and mesmerizing. As Samantha nursed her drink, she felt the weight of curious stares prickling her skin. That's when she saw him. Marcus. A name she didn't know yet, but one that would soon be etched into her very soul. Their eyes locked across the crowded room, and Samantha's breath caught in her throat. He moved with predatory grace, all lean muscle and barely restrained power. Their first interaction was as intoxicating as it was bewildering. One moment, he was her gallant protector, rescuing her from an overly aggressive drunk. The next, his eyes hardened to chips of ice as he snarled, "Stupid girl," before melting into the shadows. Samantha's mind reeled, but her body hummed with an excitement she couldn't explain. Little did she know, this encounter was merely the first step into a world beyond her wildest fantasies – a realm where vampires ruled the night and pain blurred exquisitely with pleasure. As she delved deeper into this hidden society, Samantha found herself drawn to the intoxicating blend of power, submission, and supernatural allure. The crack of a whip, the whisper of leather, the exquisite sting of fangs – each sensation pushed her boundaries and ignited desires she never knew existed. But with every ecstatic high came the sobering reality of danger. Vampire politics were as deadly as they were intricate, and Samantha soon realized she was a pawn in a game where the stakes were life, death, and eternal servitude. As she left the Black Swan that night, Samantha couldn't shake the feeling that she stood on the precipice of something life-changing. She had no idea how right she was, or how deeply she would fall into a passionate, dangerous dance with forces beyond her imagination. The real question was: in this world where pleasure and peril intertwined so intimately, would she emerge empowered... or lose herself completely?

#1 Demons & Dragons {MATURE CONTENT R18 - No Rape} "There's nowhere else to run, little ember," Azrakhel chuckled, his voice a silken rasp against Rinn's ear. The moonlight filtering through the cracks in the abandoned castle tower bathed them in an ethereal glow, highlighting the raw desire simmering in his mismatched red and gold eyes. Rinn, her back pressed against the rough stone wall, scoffed. "In your dreams, demon. I'd rather kiss a gargoyle than be caught dead… well, not entirely dead," she amended with a smirk, "between your sheets." Azrakhel, amusement dancing in his eyes, trailed a finger down her arm, sending shivers down her spine despite the defiant fire in her violet eyes. "Sheets? How quaint, ember. This dusty floorboards will have to suffice for tonight's entertainment." Rinn bristled. "Entertainment? You think this is some game, demon? You burned down my house, my family—" He cut her off, his touch surprisingly gentle as he cupped her face. "Let the past be ash, ember. Embrace the now. The heat between us is far more interesting than cold vengeance." Rinn's heart hammered against her ribs, a traitorous counterpoint to the anger that still simmered within her. This infuriating demon, with his infuriating charm and even more infuriating good looks, had somehow breached the walls she'd built around her heart. "Vengeance may be cold," she conceded, her voice a husky whisper, "but so is this stone floor. Besides, demons like their conquests fiery, wouldn't you agree?" A slow, predatory smile spread across Azrakhel's face. "Then by all means, ember, let the flames begin." Their journey began with hatred, a fiery dance fueled by vengeance and a desperate pact. But amidst the chaos and the battles, a flicker of something unexpected ignited - a love as passionate and dangerous as the enemies they were sworn to be. Would Rinn choose the path of vengeance carved by the Council, or surrender to the all-consuming passion of the demon who both destroyed and desired her?

In his first life as 'Caine Wilson', was the villain—ruthless, cunning, and very powerful. He played his part perfectly, crushing the so-called "protagonist" and parading his enemies, their families, and anyone who crossed him naked through the streets. He watched with glee as the "hero" lay broken, stripped of his dignity, before finally ending his pitiful existence. But just as Caine, thought he had finally won and secured his place at the top, 'Higher ups' intervened. A booming, ethereal voice—like the universe’s pissed-off judge—shook the skies: "You have violated the sacred code of villainy! The villain shall not win. The balance has been broken. Caine Wilson, the world hereby rejects you!" Before he could even enjoy his victory, his world blinked out, like a story whose writer just erased the last chapter in frustration. Everything went dark. And when he awoke, he wasn’t Caine Wilson anymore. He was 'Su Xiaobai', a nobody on 'White Cloud Star', a world of cultivation, martial arts, and endless struggle. But this time, things were different. He could feel it—he could see through the cracks of reality itself. He could break the fourth wall! He wasn’t just some reincarnated soul; he was a villain who had 'seen the system', who understood the game. And he was about to flip it upside down. --------------- Discord: https://discord.gg/dsc4fftBeF **Cover Page is not owned by Author**

In 2025, Earth is still happily unaware of most cosmic forces that occur beyond its atmosphere. That would change one day when over 50 high school seniors, on a field trip far away from home and safety, find themselves at the heart of a terrifying phenomenon. Without warning, multiversal mana pierces through dimensional barriers, causing an earth-altering event: blood-red rains fall for precisely a minute to mark the start of an unimaginable nightmare. Within minutes, any human touched by the rain begins a transformation into a mindless zombie, sowing chaos and fear. But that is not all of the horrors: insects, plants, and animals touched by the rain undergo rapid and terrifying mutations, evolving larger, stronger, and far more dangerous. With each kill these creatures make, they become stronger, raising the threat bar with each life taken. In the midst of this storm, there is a light at the end of the tunnel to restore the hope of humanity. Those who managed to kill one of those mutated creatures developed an awakening. These became known as "Awakeners"; such a person was granted powers, but most importantly, a system-a place that showed them where they were and how much further they could go in developing their abilities. A rare scroll, possibly a relic of new powers or cryptic information regarding the world's new laws, might come with each kill. The Earth then becomes a cruel battlefield where the newly Awakened have to struggle for life against an endless tide of mutants. For a group of high school seniors on a field trip, survival means fighting through fear and confronting a world where only the strong survive. A blood-red-colored rain started an apocalypse and heralded a new era when the struggle for power, survival, and evolution would be joined in the desperate fight to shape the future of mankind. 1. **Low Grade** - Green 2. **Common Grade** - Blue 3. **Uncommon Grade** - Yellow 4. **Elite Grade** - Orange 5. **Heroic Grade** - Purple 6. **Champion Grade** - Red 7. **Demon Grade** - Dark Red 8. **Angel Grade** - Light Blue 9. **Heavenly Grade** - Gold 10. **Ethereal Grade** - Silver 11. **Legendary Grade** - White 12. **Dimensional Grade** - Black

After being reincarnated in a world of Gods, Demons, and Great Emperors, Wang Wei embarks on a journey to bear Heaven Mandate, proves the Dao, and proclaims himself a Great Emperor--a Supreme Being that overlooked Myriad World and Races. However, his Dao involves despising fate and its encompassing glory. So what awaits our protagonist on his journey full of vicissitudes to defy and even control fate? While he controls the fate of countless races and worlds, is fate playing with him? Can he escape the very shackles of fate that he controls? Better Synopsys: After an unknown cosmic accident that enveloped the Earth, Wang Wei was reincarnated into a magical world of spiritual cultivation. This world was composed of powerful Demons, cunning and brutal Devils, ruthless and indifferent Gods, detached and ethereal Immortals. More Importantly, Great Emperors--Supreme Beings that stand above everyone and everything, even life and death itself. Despite being born in one of the most powerful sects in the world, Wang Wei was placed under tremendous pressure when so many expectations were placed on him by his sect due to the fact they have not cultivated a Great Emperor for countless millennia--an act which threatened the fundamental status of his family, friends, and sect. On top of that, Wang Wei was not one of the chosen few of this world that was granted special gifts by Heaven, thus further aggravating his circumstances. However, he did not retreat in the face of adversity. With the mindset that “If Heaven does not give me, I shall take it for myself”, Wang Wei begins to plan his rise to the top with a brilliant tactical mind and the help of his mysterious soul so that one day he will become a Great Emperor that not only control his fate but the fate of all lives in existence.

Seven Realms, One Egg, Two Hearts. In ancient times, there lay a story that was condemned to be chained in secrecy—an unthinkable era was brewed by continuous discord among the inhabitants of the seven realms, blinding them to the cruelty of war. From there, the era's aroma lingered, and darkness dominated both the realms of humans and elementals. But a streak of hope appeared in the sky. In times of crisis, a glowing orb emerged from the depths of the Wyrmpirean seas. People from all seven realms were revitalized and rejoiced. Mythical beasts of Water, Earth, Fire, Air, Spirit, and Shadow came to light. Their power grew through the alchemy of elements and light, and this glowing orb turned out to be an ethereal egg. It was the vital force of the great Luxian beast, destined to be the sentinel of Wyrmpire. However, the poison of greed for power once again took hold of one of the human leaders. In an age when the seven realms coexisted in delicate equilibrium, the harmonious symphony of magic and mythical creatures was abruptly silenced by Gat of Luwalhat'ti's insatiable thirst for dominion. He ordered the capture of the elemental beasts and exploited their essence. Relentlessly pursuing the fabled Mythical Egg for his own self-indulgent desires, he caused this primordial artifact—whispered to possess unimaginable power—to shatter the peace and plunge the world into devastating war, reigniting the embers of chaos from the past. The realms became more divided than ever. Sinagthala, the first to succumb to his ruthless conquest, bears the scars of his ambition. Emir Akkainu, in a desperate act of self-sacrifice, secured the egg at a heart-wrenching cost—his own son, Karrim. Now, Karrim, burdened by a curse yet bestowed with enigmatic abilities, embarks on a perilous quest for vengeance against the Gat. His path intertwines with that of Klarra, Gat's daughter, who, disillusioned by her father's tyranny, yearns for peace and justice. Amidst the chaos and despair of a war-torn world, an unexpected love blossoms; a fragile beacon of hope amidst the encroaching darkness. Will they find redemption amidst the ruins of a broken world, or will the insatiable hunger for power and the scars of the past consume them all, as history repeats itself? The convergence of Karrim and Klarra's journey is set to test the very limits of their courage, loyalty, and love.

In the wake of the cataclysmic apocalypse that devastated humanity, the sudden emergence of the enigmatic and malevolent 'Hollows' posed an unprecedented and dire threat to the surviving population. These mysterious beings, with the unsettling ability to shift into various forms – from ferocious creatures to ethereal specters – added a layer of complexity to the peril faced by the shattered remnants of society. Amidst this escalating danger, a distinct group known as 'Theurgists' rose, harnessing arcane powers rooted in the very essence of nature. Shrouded in mystery, Theurgists emerged as the last line of defense against the encroaching Hollow threat, their abilities offering a glimmer of hope in the face of overwhelming darkness. Under the guidance of the global authority, the Omni, a sweeping initiative was launched to combat the Hollow menace. The formation of the Ark Knights, an elite cohort of Theurgist champions, signaled a critical turning point in the ongoing struggle for survival. Tasked with stemming the Hollow incursion and preserving humanity's dominion, the Ark Knights embarked on a hazardous quest to secure a future free from the specter of annihilation. Forced by circumstances beyond his control, Kandril found himself thrust into the heart of this tumultuous conflict, compelled by familial duties to embrace his destined role as a Theurgist in the relentless battle against the encroaching forces of oblivion.

In the sprawling metropolis of Aerion, where towering spires pierce the sky and ancient magic intertwines with modern technology, a secret society of extraordinary children has existed for centuries. These children, known as the Awakened, possess unique and powerful abilities that manifest when they reach the age of fifteen. Among the newest initiates is sixteen-year-old Kaelan, a brilliant and inquisitive boy with a passion for knowledge. When his power awakens, he discovers he can manipulate the flow of time, slowing it down or speeding it up at will. Meanwhile, his best friend, Anya, a spirited and athletic girl, gains the ability to control the elements and harness the raw energy of nature. As Kaelan and Anya navigate the challenges of their newfound powers, they uncover a sinister plot brewing in the shadows. A powerful cabal, led by the enigmatic Magister, seeks to control the Awakened and exploit their abilities for their own nefarious purposes. With the fate of Aerion hanging in the balance, Kaelan and Anya must join forces with other Awakened to thwart the Magister's plans and protect the world they know. Their journey will take them on a thrilling adventure through the bustling streets of Aerion, the hidden depths of the city's ancient catacombs, and even into the ethereal realm of dreams. Along the way, they will encounter allies and enemies, test the limits of their powers, and discover the true meaning of friendship, loyalty, and the responsibility that comes with being extraordinary. One day, as Kaelan and Anya were studying in the library of their prestigious academy, Arcanum, a strange energy began to pulse through the air. Bookshelves shimmered, and strange symbols appeared on the walls. Kaelan, sensing the disturbance, reached out with his power and slowed down time, allowing him to see the symbols more clearly. "Anya, look!" he exclaimed, pointing to the wall. "These are ancient runes, symbols of power. They're activating!" Anya's eyes widened in excitement. "This is it, Kaelan! Our powers are awakening!" As they delved deeper into the mystery of the runes, they realized that they were not alone. Other Awakened across the city were also experiencing strange phenomena, and it was becoming clear that something powerful was stirring beneath the surface of Aerion.

Amidst the eerie silence of an unfamiliar hall, a cacophony of confused voices rose, mingling in a chorus of bewilderment. "Where are we?" "What happened?" "I thought I died!" Each utterance hung in the air, a testament to the collective disbelief gripping the room. As the haze of confusion lifted, disjointed memories surfaced, fragments of lives cut short by tragedy. "I remember... I was stabbed..." ventured one voice, echoed by another's affirmation of a similar fate. "I... I died in a plane crash," muttered a third, only to be met with a stunned agreement from a fellow survivor. Amidst the chaos of bewildered voices, one man stood apart, his expression a mask of contemplation amidst the turmoil. As his companions recounted their brushes with death, his mind churned with questions, each more confounding than the last. "I got shot... I remember it vividly," he murmured to himself, his voice barely audible above the din. "So how am I still here?" The enigma of their shared resurrection gnawed at him, compelling him to seek answers in the depths of his memories. With each revelation of a paired demise—a male and female, bound by the same tragic fate—a flicker of recognition ignited within him. "This... this seems familiar," he mused, the pieces of a puzzle slowly coalescing in his mind. But the picture remained incomplete, obscured by the fog of uncertainty that shrouded their surroundings. As the words "pairs, pairs, pairs" echoed in his mind like a cryptic mantra, a sudden realization struck him with the force of a revelation. "It can't be... don't tell me..." he whispered, his voice trembling with disbelief. With a sense of urgency, he began to scan his surroundings, searching for any sign or clue that could confirm his suspicions. Then, as if guided by an unseen force, his gaze shifted upwards, and there, bathed in an ethereal light, stood an angelic figure with golden apparel, its gaze fixed upon him with a warm smile. The sight took his breath away, filling him with a mixture of awe and trepidation. The man's heart raced as faced a real angel, his mind struggling to comprehend the surreal encounter unfolding before him. The angel's words, spoken with an air of amusement, only deepened the enigma shrouding their meeting. "I never expected anyone to notice me," the angel remarked, a hint of playfulness in its voice. "I was concealing my presence to let everyone fully calm down, but to think someone noticed me. Just who are you?" Ethan's disbelief and confusion intensified at the angel's question. "Eh... Ethan Rivers," he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. As Aurelia, the angel, finally revealed himself to the bewildered assembly, a hush fell over the room, each soul drawn in by his radiant presence and commanding aura. Ethan's gaze lingered on Aurelia. "Greetings, lost souls," Aurelia declared, his voice resonating with a majestic power that seemed to fill the very air around them. "I am Aurelia, and I shall be your guide to your new life." As Aurelia extended his arms in a gesture of welcome, Ethan felt a surge of rage and hesitation, "This it bad, really bad."
