antihero

Sable was never meant to survive. Nineteen years old. Medical school dropout. Living in maintenance tunnels beneath a city that forgot he existed. When the Rain falls and tears reality open, most people pray for Grace—supernatural powers to fight the monsters. Sable gets fifteen seconds. Fifteen seconds to rewind time. Triggered only by regret. Only after he’s already failed. It’s not a gift. It’s a curse that forces him to watch himself die—over and over—until he learns to stop caring. To stop feeling. To become the monster the system thinks he already is. But when a seven-year-old girl’s life depends on him, and an Anointed Knight comes to execute them both, Sable discovers something worse than dying repeatedly: Living with what you become when death stops mattering. A dark progression fantasy about the cost of second chances, the monsters we create when survival requires sacrifice, and a boy learning that some scars never heal—even when time itself rewinds. CONTENT WARNING This story contains: • Graphic violence and death • Morally gray/dark protagonist • Child endangerment situations (not graphic) • Psychological trauma and mental degradation • Dark themes including murder, survival, and moral ambiguity • Time loop mechanics with permanent consequences Recommended for mature readers who enjoy dark progression fantasy with psychological depth.

He didn’t grow up with a real name. In the place he was raised, they didn’t bother with names at all. They just burned numbers onto kids, and his number was XI. That’s how people talked to him—like, “Number Eleven, do this,” “Number Eleven, stand there.” It wasn’t a life. It was just… existing. He spent most of his childhood underground. Cold stone floors, dim lamps, the same halls every day. He didn’t know anything about the outside world or why the people there were training him. He only knew that the shadows around him always felt strange, like they were watching him. One night, during some ritual he never understood, something unexpected happened. The shadows that were supposed to kill him didn’t. They moved toward him instead—like they recognized him. Like they’d been waiting for him. After that, he walked out of the fortress. No plan. No idea what to do. He picked the name Kael because he needed something normal to call himself. But the world outside isn’t simple. People stare at him. Some are scared of him. And the shadows that cling to him… he still doesn’t know how to control them, or if they’re even safe. Kael isn’t trying to be special or powerful. He just wants to understand who he is and where he belongs. Maybe he’s just a kid who was treated wrong his whole life. Or maybe he’s something else—something the people in that fortress were afraid to admit. Whatever the truth is, he knows one thing: He’s never going back to being a number again.

"When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back." Yandere MC - yes Weird and mysterious protagonist - yes Harem – no (absolutely not) Single female lead – yes Fantasy world - yes Academy life - yes Well-written, coherent story - yes An author who loves lemon tea - yes _ _ _ In the Empire’s most prestigious academy, a single moment can change the course of an entire life. Alicia Emberlune is the last remaining descendant of a bloodline despised by the Empire, the legendary Witch Clan. For her, entering Aethelgard Imperial Academy is not simply a step toward education. It is a fight to prove that she deserves to exist. On Soul Binding Day, the creature she calls forth will determine her destiny. As extraordinary students summon radiant and powerful beings of S and SS Rank, Alicia’s hope wavers. When her turn finally arrives, something appears that no history book has ever mentioned and no scholar has ever witnessed. A small boy with a human appearance sits silently at the center of the ritual circle. His skin is pale as death and his eyes are entirely black, devouring light like a void. The measurement orb does not react to him at all. The judgment is delivered with merciless clarity: F Rank. A humiliation so rare that the Academy has not recorded a similar incident in more than a century. Alicia becomes the target of ridicule and escapes the auditorium in tears. She does not yet know that this strange child is not a creature like the others. He is a being torn from another realm, an existence without name or origin, drawn to her by an instinct older than memory. To this child, Alicia is light, warmth and the only piece of truth in a chaotic world. Even after being rejected, he continues to seek her with silent and unwavering determination. As he wanders the Academy, something ancient and dangerous begins to awaken within him. This is a tale of strength, hatred and destiny reshaped by an unexpected bond. Alicia cannot yet imagine that the child she summoned, the one the world labels as F Rank, may in fact be the beginning of a nightmare powerful enough to shake the foundations of the Empire.

“Erebus: The Shadow Sovereign” (Subtitle option for clarity: “Rise of the Dark God Across All Verses”) ----- In the beginning, there was only the Abyss—silent, eternal, and indifferent. From its depths arose Erebus, a being of unimaginable power, six meters tall, with eyes as black and white as the void and the cosmos themselves. Born to wield every dark and forbidden power, Erebus was destined to command the threads of existence. From lower-tier worlds of pirates, ninjas, and mortals, to the mid-tier realms of titanic dragons and warlike gods, Erebus’s presence fractured the boundaries of reality. As he ascended, the strongest beings from countless verses—anime, myth, legend, and lost histories—observed him, sensing a rising threat unlike any other. To aid in his conquest, he forged an army of loyal generals: six immortal Shadow Generals, unbreakable and eternal, and sixteen temporary generals, each from a different universe, world, or reality. Their motivations varied—some inspired by awe, some by love, some by the debt of survival—but all were drawn to the inexorable power that was Erebus. As he marched from verse to verse, conquering and reshaping worlds, battles erupted. Cities, planets, and realms fell beneath the shadow of his will. Yet not all could be controlled. Death stalked even his most loyal generals, and with each loss, Erebus felt a fragment of something he had never known: grief. It twisted him, reshaping justice into cold, unyielding vengeance. Erebus’s ambition was limitless: to conquer all realities, to challenge the strongest beings across time, space, and fiction, and to become a force that even gods would fear. But the higher-tier verses watched, patient and calculating, waiting for the moment they must intervene. Even as he crushed lower and mid-tier realms effortlessly, the stage was being set for a war unlike any in all existence—a war where one being stands against all, and all stand against one. “Erebus: The Shadow Sovereign” is an epic dark fantasy saga of conquest, grief, and godlike power. It explores the rise of a multiversal tyrant, the loyalty and sacrifice of those who follow him, and the inexorable transformation of a being who knows neither mercy nor defeat.

a world forever altered by the emergence of mysterious monoliths and the Awakening of superhuman abilities, seventeen-year-old Max Morgan lives in the shadows of New York, haunted by the scars of a past life he can scarcely forget. Reincarnated from Alex, a battle-hardened special ops agent betrayed and gunned down by his own team after forty-seven years of unwavering loyalty, Max has vowed never to let anyone close enough to wound him again. Trust, to him, is a fatal weakness—a lesson etched in blood from his former existence, where camaraderie turned to treachery in a haze of gunfire and desert dust. Orphaned young and raised by his elder sister Elena, a confident Awakened warrior thriving in her guild's dungeon raids, Max feigns normalcy as an unremarkable, unawakened teen. But when his own system finally activates, granting him the unique skill "Administrator Rights"—a daily Administrator Point convertible into a thousand stat points or a hundred skill points—he glimpses a path to unparalleled power. Capable of eclipsing seasoned Awakened through sheer, effortless growth, Max converts his points in secret, boosting his stats to godlike levels while testing his might in low-level dungeons under a ridiculous paper-bag disguise to avoid detection. Yet, even as he unleashes brutal fury on monstrous foes, . Max's isolation deepens. Paranoia from Alex's betrayal keeps him from confiding in Elena or forming bonds, turning his gift into a solitary curse. As whispers of greater threats loom and fleeting encounters hint at potential allies, Max must navigate a world of heroes and horrors, all while guarding his heart against the one enemy he fears most: vulnerability. In this tale of reincarnation and redemption, power comes easy—but trust may prove impossible.

They call it the strongest clan. They call it a blessing. For Hiroki, being born an Uchiha is nothing but a countdown to an execution. He has no system. He isn’t a genius like Itachi. He isn’t a prophesied savior like Sasuke. He is just an extra in the background, destined to be nothing more than a corpse on the floor to motivate the real heroes. But Hiroki has a secret: he knows the script. He knows the night of blood is coming. Paralyzed by a primal fear of death and armed only with mediocrity, he has one goal: Survive. Not to save the village, not to save his family, but to simply keep breathing when the curtain falls.
