THE SCRIPT IS RIGGED, SO I'LL JUST ERASE IT

failedwritter
​"Now do you see?" ​Seraphina Valerius looked at me with cold pity. "You can't outsmart the Heavens, Vesperian. They aren't just strong. They are the Script." ​In this futuristic world of 2526, the 7 Heavens' Chosen were hard-coded to win. Arthurian swung his sword, and 'Causality' ensured he hit. Seraphina spoke, and 'Fate' made it real. ​Against them, I was just a D-Rank disappointment from a family of 'Pragmatic Monsters.' ​"You're right," I muttered, looking at my charred hands. "I was arrogant to think a human could fool the stars." ​—BOOM!! ​The golden barrier of the Aetheria Spire shattered. The Hero’s 'Certain Victory' sputtered into grey mist. ​"...Wh-What was that?" she gasped. ​I smiled. "Maybe you should go ask the stars. Oh wait! You can't. I erased them." ​My name is Vesperian Thorne Malakor. ​Ten minutes ago, I was supposed to be a corpse. On the last day of school, I got into a fight with the kid I used to bully—the Hero, Arthurian. I tripped, smacked my head, and the memories flooded in. ​I realized two things: ​I was inside a futuristic game I used to play. ​I was a Villain. ​Not the cool, tragic kind. I was the worst cliché—a spoiled, arrogant Young Master meant to be a stepping stone. My fate? To be humiliated by the Hero, manipulated by a Devil, and die a dog's death in a D-Rank Rift. ​The hero? The same kid I’d been bullying. The 'Main Character' of a world teetering on destruction. ​"Ah, fuck it." ​I had no idea if I could survive, but I was going to try. Extorting extras, manipulating protagonists, stealing 'Cheat Items' before the Hero finds the map—nothing was beneath me. ​But the universe noticed. As an Unregistered Soul, I am an 'Illegal Variable.' The 'Laws' tried to correct me with 'accidents' and random monster spawns. ​The script was rigged. The house always wins. ​If I played by their rules, I was dead. So, I stopped playing. If the universe uses Laws to protect its favorites... then I’ll use the Void to erase the laws. ​[SYSTEM: UNREGISTERED SOUL DETECTED] [ELEMENT: VOID-ENTROPY (RANK: D)] [WARNING: YOU ARE AN ILLEGAL VARIABLE] ​Excellent. If I'm illegal, I don't follow the rules. ​I’m the only one who sees the 'Conditions' of the script. I know the flaws in Arthurian’s 'Victory.' I’ll live with no regrets, gather the 'Dregs' the hero discarded, and make the Heavens tremble. ​We aren't here to save the world. We’re here to survive it. ​The price of rewriting destiny is steep, and the Void is always hungry. ​"Let them come," I muttered, watching the 7 Chosen glow like gods. I stood in the shadows, my D-Rank mastery flickering. I didn't need their light. I had an eraser. ​"The script says you win today, Arthurian. I think it's time for a rewrite."

Battle Through The Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am Your Second Master

I transmigrated into the world of Battle Through the Heavens, but I arrived far earlier than expected. At this time, the Xiao Clan was still one of the four great families of the Jiama Empire, with Dou Wang experts guarding it. Xiao Yan had not yet been born. According to the clan records, the only Xiao Yan was an ancestor from five hundred years ago whose grave could not even be found, while his father, Xiao Zhan, was still just a child. The future rise of the Xiao Clan did not belong to Xiao Yan, but to a mysterious young man named Xiao Li. Years later, Yao Lao asked curiously, “Xiao Yanzi, your family seems quite wealthy. Is there a pharmacist in your clan?” Xiao Yan smiled. “Of course. My second granduncle is the only pharmacist in the Xiao Clan. I just don’t know his rank.” Yao Lao nearly went mad. “Evergreen Vine, Snow Bone Ginseng, Blood Essence Fruit… Heavens, this old man is blessed!” Single Heavenly Flame: Yin–Yang Dual Flame.

I Was Given The Worst Beast... So Why Are The Dragons Kneeling?

Dragons rule the skies, the land, and the seas. Humanity survives in what they’re allowed to keep. In this world, power comes from the beast you tame. Wolves become kings. Eagles become legends. Chimeras decide the fate of nations. A strong summon means a bright future. Kael Ashborne didn’t get one. On the day every young tamer awakened their destiny, Kael summoned the lowest-ranked creature ever recorded—a formless, useless thing barely considered alive. No claws. No fangs. No strength. Just weakness. He became a joke overnight. Bullied, discarded, and written off as a failure, Kael was told to give up. After all, what future could a tamer with a worthless beast possibly have? But giving up was never an option. His aging parents sold everything for his one chance, and Kael refuses to let their sacrifice be meaningless. If this world only respects power, then he’ll carve his own path to it—starting from the very bottom. Here’s what no one realized: The weakest beast doesn’t evolve like the others. While normal summons follow fixed paths, Kael’s creature adapts. It survives what should kill it. It absorbs traits it shouldn’t have. Every impossible victory unlocks something ancient—something forgotten. Dragons don’t begin as kings. They begin as nothing. As kingdoms rot under greed, nobles hunt power they don’t understand, and dragonkind stirs from extinction, Kael’s rise turns ridicule into fear. His beast evolves beyond known limits, breaking every rule of taming and leading toward a single, terrifying truth: Every evolutionary path leads to dragons. And Kael stands at the origin. World-ending threats. Insane evolutions. Morally bankrupt nobles. Allies who become legends—and enemies who realize too late that they should have killed him when he was weak. This is the story of the weakest beast tamer climbing from the bottom of the food chain to the peak of existence. After all… even dragons start small.

Then one day, an extraordinarily beautiful woman materialized beside him.
