Strongest God Of Wrath

"I WILL HAVE MY VENGEANCE!" All Sage ever wanted was simple, make his mother proud, become the man she believed he could be, learn about the father he never knew. But fate is cruel. His world shattered when a god descended, demanding his mother's death. Sage, Sage the helpless, Sage the weak, Sage the broken, could only watch as everything he loved burned to ash. In that moment, something inside him died. And something far more dangerous was born. SAGE THE HELPLESS BECAME SAGE THE RESTLESS. Now he has one purpose, drag the gods from their thrones and make them pay. He will become their nightmare. Their executioner. HE WILL KILL EVERY LAST ONE. Even if it destroys him. ●●● Thor towered before the assembled gods of Asgard, ancient authority burning in his eyes. "I see." BANG! Mjolnir crashed into marble, its impact shaking the very foundations of the divine realm. "Lift this hammer," Thor declared, "and you will have your duel." The challenge that had humbled gods and heroes alike. The test no mortal had ever passed. But Sage was no longer mortal. He was vengeance incarnate. THE GODS WILL FALL TO WRATH INCARNATE. ●●● A Note on Mythology The mythological figures in this story draw inspiration from various pantheons and legends, but they are not meant to be historically or culturally accurate representations. I've taken creative liberties with personalities, powers, relationships, and lore to serve the narrative, especially since I'm weaving together multiple mythologies into one cohesive world. Consider this a reimagining rather than a retelling. If you're looking for faithful adaptations, this might not be for you. But if you're ready for a fresh take on ancient legends, read on. ●●● What to Expect Epic fights, memorable characters, gods bleeding, and no harem. Sage isn't some emotionless machine,he adapts to whoever he's dealing with, whether that means showing compassion or throwing hands. Now enjoy! ●●●

A King's Fate

Alexander Frederick was an ordinary university graduate, poised to inherit his family’s business and a quiet, predictable future. That future was erased in blood. A feared organization (The Selflaw) slaughtered his parents and murdered his closest friend. Grief collapsed into rage, and rage awakened a power so violent it shattered science, reason, and every limit Alexander believed immutable. In claiming vengeance, he destroyed more than his enemies. He destroyed himself. Death should have been final. Instead, Alexander awakens in absolute darkness—bodiless, adrift within an endless void where time fractures and existence feels uncertain. A presence speaks. He believes it to be judgment. He is wrong. What answers him is older than divinity, vast beyond comprehension, and bound by laws even the universe resists. Reborn into a world of Integrators, Alexander rises without his memories, yet burdened by fractured echoes that refuse to fade—fear, shame, grief, and a buried weakness gnawing at his subconscious. Balanced on the edge of madness and a meaningless death, he refuses to break. Not yet. Not until he understands what he has become. Not until he uncovers the truth behind his own incompleteness. The unreasonable power he once wielded has not vanished. It lingers—fractured, restrained, and tied to death itself in ways even the strongest of this world cannot perceive. In a realm far larger, crueler, and more indifferent than the one he lost, Alexander is drawn into conflicts far beyond revenge—forced to confront hidden currents that shape reality, face his fear of dissolution, and walk toward a destiny he can neither deny… …nor escape.

Death punishment: Quest for vengeance

In 1950, a cosmic event reshaped the world. Ordinary people awakened extraordinary abilities—some benevolent, others catastrophic. To control the chaos, hero organizations formed, offering power, wealth, and status in exchange for loyalty and strength. For decades, the system held. Ember City became the symbol of that fragile balance—until it nearly vanished. Five years before the present day, a Demon King threatened to erase the city entirely. Two legendary heroes, Tempestia and Moon-Light, defeated the demon and sealed it within a stone statue. The victory came at a cost. Both heroes disappeared. The world believed they died. Others believed they chose to vanish. Peace followed. But the seal did not last forever. On Thanksgiving night, five years later, a villain known as Oblivion shattered the statue that bound the Demon King. The demon returned—stronger, prepared, and ruthless. Ember City fell. Heroes rushed to defend it. Civilians were caught in the slaughter. Streets burned. Blood soaked the ground. Among the defenders was Black Mentis, the strongest hero alive—and Alan Winchester’s father. Mentis led the heroes into battle against the demon army. But before dawn, the fight took a fatal turn. Oblivion revealed his true hand, ambushing Mentis alongside a mysterious cloaked man. Betrayed and overwhelmed, Black Mentis was mortally wounded. Knowing he would die—and that the city was already lost—Mentis cast a forbidden spell. The spell gathered the power of every hero who had fallen that night—every strength, every ability, every fragment of will—and transferred it into one vessel. His son. Alan Winchester. The spell saved nothing else. Black Mentis died as the sun rose. Ember City lay in ruins. Alan survived—but his body was never meant to contain such power. The inheritance burns inside him, tearing at his limits, threatening to destroy him from within. Grief leaves him hollow. Rage gives him direction. The truth of his father’s death—and the role Oblivion and the cloaked man played in it—drives Alan away from what remains of his old life. His path leads him to China, where ancient disciplines, brutal training, and forces beyond modern hero society begin reshaping him. He is no longer training to be a hero. He is training to become something else. This is not a story about heroes and villains. It is the story of a boy crushed by inheritance, reshaped by loss, and hardened by survival—moving through a world of hidden realms, infinite realities, and beings that rival gods. Alan’s choices will decide more than revenge. But revenge is where his journey begins. ----- New chapters/EPs will be uploaded on Mondays & Thursdays (bonus chapter randomly on Saturday depending on my mood) at 1 PM CET (North Africa/Europe time).

The legend of januza: Rebirth of the Echoes and Chronicles of Azerin

Discord: https://discord.gg/9BbeXfhT7 The official sequel to the legend of januza return of the Devourer Renji Kurogane’s awakening began slowly born not from revelation, but from suffering. Each time he fell into despair, each time death brushed against him, something ancient stirred within his soul. Pain acted like a key..... Agony like a whisper..... And every moment he fought to survive unlocked a small, fractured piece of the power he had forgotten. But it was always incomplete scattered memories, unstable strength, glimpses of a life that wasn’t supposed to exist. Everything changed the day his closest friend, Choji Namikaze, died in the battle against the king of the generals , an apostle of the azerin And everything transformed the moment Choji was reborn. That miracle shattered the final seal inside Renji. In an instant, a surge of divine awareness erupted through him, tearing apart the identity he believed he had His full memories returned not human memories, but the memories of Januza, an ancient being who once went against gods and shaped the foundation of existence . The truth hit him like a tidal wave: he had not been gaining new powers… he had been reclaiming what was originally his buy only in fragments With his awakening came clarity. The looming catastrophe the world had feared, the one the gods of creation had warned about, was built upon a lie. The hunters themselves were preparing for the wrong war. The threat was never about them. Renji’s memories as Januza were never meant to awaken unless his brother did so first. And now, Azerin had risen. Azerin, the God of Corruption. A cosmic being who existed far above the gods of creation, a force capable of corrupting universes with a thought. Renji realized with horror that the true battle wasn’t divine against mortal, or creation against destruction no it was something else it was brother against brother corruption against destruction Azerin had awakened first, and with him came a wave of corruption powerful enough to consume existence itself. His intention was absolute: wipe away all life and rebuild the universe in his twisted image. Only Januza could stop him. And Renji Kurogane was Januza reborn. No longer believing himself a mere vessel, Renji accepts the truth.his human life was a fragment, a quiet reincarnation meant to keep him hidden until the right moment. That moment is now. To face Azerin, Renji must reclaim the full power he once possessed, mend the shattered pieces of his identity and despair and must now rise once more as the being he was always meant to be. The fate of every world hangs on whether Renji can become Januza again and regain his full powers before his brother’s corruption consumes the universe forever.
