Rogers Darren is a smoker, drinker, liar, lothario, gold-digger, rule-breaker. At a brutal Marine HQ hearing, Darren faces accusations of scandalous wages, stolen Germa tech, suspicious Celestial Dragon deaths, and a few too many questionable entanglements with nobles-just another day for the greatest disgrace in Marine history. Biting his cigar, Darren simply grins: "I smoke, I drink, I lust for money and women, I crave power, I lie, and I break every rule... but I'm a damn good Marine." Silence fell like a dropped anchor.

Isekai, a very common occurrence in modern fiction, generally an ordinary human gets reincarnated, and turns overpowered, has a harem, and basically becomes a winner in life... But, What if? The one reincarnating is not a human at all. but an A.I. Something like A.I., which has been the cheat of protagonists for quite a few times, is to become the protagonist itself, and is to possess free will. Now, in a world full of Devils, Angels, Gods, Dragons, and practically every supernatural being you can think of, what is an A.I. turned devil gonna do? Stay tuned to find out. (If you feel that story at some part looks A.I. made, then no, it isn't, because the main character is an A.I., that's the problem, and chatGPT was used for editing. Hope you all enjoy the story.)

In a world where Dexter Morgan and John Morgan grew up under Harry's watchful eye, two brothers share a dark bond shaped by the same lessons. While Dexter follows his code, John has embraced it in his own way — a code that spares the innocent and punishes only the guilty.

Ashen Kade grew up in the Shatterlands, a place where mutants hunt the living and hope dies fast. He should have died too. The First World’s nuclear apocalypse was supposed to wipe out every human outside the Celestial Marches. Yet Ashen survived, and the secret behind that survival is something the gods never wanted uncovered. When a band of mercenaries drags him into their fight, Ashen is thrown into a world filled with Netherborn monsters, metahuman killers, and the warring powers of Solmir Peak and the Voidspire. Determined to rise above the ruins of his birth, he claws his way into Aurion’s Gate, the shining capital of the Celestial Marches, protected by the Temple of the Skyfather. The city is paradise on the surface. In truth, its light hides corruption deeper than anything in the wastes. Ashen endures brutal training, becomes a junior demon hunter, and finally earns a place in a world that hates him. Then the real chaos begins. The Nullstar Sect, the Red Covenant, and agents of the Voidspire all strike from the shadows. War erupts between the Celestial Marches and the Shatterlands, and Lord Vaelen Stroud seizes control of the holy armies. Ashen must choose who he is. A weapon of the Marches, or a son of the Shatterlands. Broken but unyielding, he returns home and builds Evergreen Bastion, a last haven for anyone the gods left behind. But Aurion’s Gate wants the Shatterlands crushed before they rise again, and the armies of the Radiant Concord are already marching. Ashen Kade will stand alone if he must. Against gods. Against monsters. Against fate itself. Because the Shatterlands are done kneeling.

He asks himself, not knowing that from here on, there's no turning back. The legendary servants of chaos return after 600 years, reacting to Sora himself. Death grants him endless resurrection, and Fate walks beside him, guiding his every move. Secrets older than the world itself threaten everything he loves. And Sora must challenge Fate, even as Fate itself stands by his side.

"When you look close enough, you'll realize there's nothing in this world. It's just a white canvas, and we paint our paths. What's the use? We're too illogical to paint a perfect path. But I, Mason Gray… No, Jumong Ryujin, will paint a perfect path not for the sake of power but to save a stupid world from dying so soon. There's nothing good to achieve beyond everlasting stupidity, but I still want to do it. Why? Because I am human and also possess stupidity, which leads to stupid decisions. To tell you the truth… without stupidity, humanity would have been extinct." ..... Mason had always been detached from the real world, finding flaws in every single thing in life, but his life becomes more nihilistic when his night sleep turns into a portal between two worlds, transforming him into a Celestial—humans who travel between the two realms. The Celestial Realm, a place where only those with strength are given rights, sees Mason Gray, as Jumong Ryujin, find himself in a battle of power and mystery in this alien realm when he is reincarnated in the body of the God. Hunted by Hoods and other Celestials, Mason uses his calculations to evade dangers and save Earth from a future apocalypse… But things don't exactly go as planned… do they?

THE FOUNDRY PROTOCOL "Try not to die like a bitch this time." That was the last thing the System told me before it rebooted the timeline. I’m Jack Monroe, a construction manager who failed to save the world. In my first life, I died screaming on Day 30, ranked 47th out of 50 warlords, watching my fortress crumble because I cut corners on a concrete wall. Now, I’ve been sent back to Day 1 with a roadmap of the apocalypse carved into my skull and a 30-day countdown to a cosmic Server Wipe. Round Two isn't about heroics. It's about industry.

Shamblers turn into Runners, Runners turn into Mutants, and my neighbors turn into looters. I have a plan. I have a blueprint. I have a shovel.

He will seize control of his fate. He will climb until he stands at the absolute Pinnacle of the universe! --- Tags: #Psychological #Interstellar #Unrivaled #ExtremelyFastPaced #UndeadArmy #NoHarem #RuthlessMC #Urban #Apocalypse Disclaimer: This is purely a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities, each adding a unique evolution to his path. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?
