The Glitch Ascendence

"They call me a mistake. But to me, a world that treats suffering as 'efficiency' is the true error." Under the unchanging skies of Aeterna, millions live in a fabricated harmony. In this realm, every breath is an algorithm, every tear is a rendering glitch, and every death is merely the deletion of an obsolete file. To the High-Archon, order is everything. To the commoners, obedience is survival. Yet, in the darkest corner forgotten by the server’s light—Sector 13—lives Kai. As an Extractor, Kai spends his days scavenging through mounds of binary refuse, searching for residual memories to trade for a mere handful of stability. He is nothing but dust within a gargantuan machine—at least until he stumbles upon an anomaly that should never have existed. A fragment of code that grants him the sight to see the world not as matter, but as a fragile string of binary syllables. Alongside Diogenes, the only father figure in this cold, synthetic world, Kai learns that reality is but a thin veil masking an unimaginable rot. But truth demands a heavy price. When the Inquisition catches his scent and betrayal bleeds from those he once trusted, the lantern that had long protected him is extinguished in a pool of data-blood. Bereft of a name, a home, and mercy, Kai begins his ascent from the trash heaps toward the apex of the digital pyramid. He will infiltrate, he will deceive, and he will betray reality itself. For to topple a god forged of logic, you do not need a blade... you only need one unstoppable Glitch.

Lord of nightmares×

In a world shrouded by the Curse—a Veil that births nightmarish Rifts and twists humanity into the Awakened, each branded with Dominions born of terror—Xia Ying emerges from his First Nightmare irrevocably changed. His awakening grants him a rare and insidious power tied to fear itself. But power, in this world, is as dangerous as it is coveted. To survive, he must conceal the truth. When he registers at the fortified Bureau, he reveals only a fraction of his Dominion, disguising its divine depth beneath the unremarkable title: **Lord of Nightmares**. In a society that drafts the branded into brutal acclimation camps and funnels elites into state-controlled institutions, any hint of greater potential invites scrutiny, exploitation… or quiet elimination. Forced through mandatory terror-training camps and thrust into a sudden low-tier Rift outbreak in New Haven’s slums, Xia Ying learns to feed on dread while maintaining the mask of a capable but ultimately ordinary survivor. Public heroics earn fleeting admiration; private harvests of panic fuel his silent, relentless evolution. When the government’s infamous **Dread Legion** offers him power and belonging, he refuses—choosing independence over chains. But refusal has consequences. His growing profile triggers a crimson summons: compulsory enrollment in the **Academy of Shattered Nightmares**—an isolated volcanic island fortress where the nation forges its most promising, and most dangerous, Awakened. Beneath wards that barely restrain the island’s leaking dread, students study forbidden history, including the 22 lost **Ascension Chains**—shattered pathways to apotheosis once walked by godlike beings known as the Originals. Surrounded by clan heirs, arrogant prodigies, and watchful instructors who sense more than they should, Xia Ying walks a razor’s edge. He rekindles fragile alliances from his camp days, sows loyalty and doubt in equal measure, and dominates theory without ever unveiling the true scope of his hunger. Campus politics, engineered “accidents,” and a brutal dread tournament push his control to its limits. When a student’s loss of control tears open a Rift within academy grounds, Xia Ying’s intervention earns him both rare favor… and dangerous suspicion from the headmaster. As whispers of ancient echoes and Original legacies ripple through forbidden lectures, Xia Ying refines his Dominion in secret—advancing not through brute force, but through calculated terror, psychological supremacy, and the patient forging of instruments meant for a far greater design. In a world that teaches the branded to fear their own hunger, Xia Ying alone embraces his— —and hungers for more.

My Vampire System In The Dragon World

In a broken world of ash and black clouds, dragons rule the sky and old vampire clans rule the ground. Human life is cheap, sold in chains to dark lords who drink blood and wage silent wars in the night. Kairn is a nameless slave boy in an iron mine at the edge of a dead kingdom, beaten, starving, and waiting to die. On the night a blood-red comet crosses the sky, a dying dragon crashes into the mine and burns everything Kairn has ever known. As he lies under stone and fire, a cold voice speaks in his mind and offers him a deal: live as a cursed vampire, bound to a hidden System that hungers for blood, or die as nothing. Kairn chooses to live. He wakes as a newborn vampire with a status screen carved into his soul, weak stats, and one strange path: “Draconic Bloodbound – locked.” To grow stronger, he must hunt in the dark, feed on those who would kill him, and survive the hunt of both humans and elder vampires who fear what he might become. As Kairn’s level rises, his powers twist his body, his mind, and his sense of mercy. He learns that the System is not a neutral guide but a chain forged by the First Sire, an ancient monster who once enslaved dragons and turned their blood into fuel for vampire evolution. The only way to break that chain is to claim a dragon of his own and evolve into something the world has never seen. In a land where the sun is a rare ghost behind storm clouds and trust is a quick way to die, Kairn must decide what he will sacrifice: his last human feelings, his few fragile allies, or the whole burning world above. There will be no heroes, only hunters and prey.
