tragedy

In a world where the powers of Gods turn humans into monsters, only one exception exists. Noen lives in Halmswick, a city ruled by corrupted power-bearers. Minigod abilities are everywhere. Brutal, destructive, abused without restraint. When Noen loses his girlfriend Lyra to one of these power-holders, something inside him shatters… and something else awakens. A power that has gone extinct. While every known Minigod power has been twisted by corruption, Noen’s reacts differently. It resists corruption itself. Hunted by corrupted power-bearers, tested by allies, and forced to grow stronger, Noen faces an impossible truth: To save a world ruled by divine corruption, he must stand against those who call themselves gods.

After a devastating large-scale invasion took place, the Heretic Cult suffered severe losses. Broken the most by it, two men find short-lived closure as a boy named Agnus pops up in both of their lives, shortly discovering he was the catalyst behind it all. His existence reignited the dormant pain lying within the two men, and awakens a path of retribution that the three must undertake for the cherished ones they lost. New brotherhood blooms, while Agnus himself is stuck in the same cycle of nothingness. As a precaution against his father when he was born, Agnus’s emotions were sealed off, and he had never felt the sensation of joy roaming in his chest or the heartache of sorrow. His path wasn’t solely for revenge, but to also seek the humanity he had never felt. Dangers lurk in the forms of friends, and hidden forces catapult the Heretics into disarray. Can he find a way to kill his enemies, all the while finding his true self?

Vengeance opened the door. But what stepped through was far more dangerous. Beneath the cold lights of modern Germany lies an ancient network hidden in the shadows: Dominion, a secret organization, its existence has remained silent... until now. Lars Braun, a man broken by the loss of his daughter, suddenly finds himself entangled in a mystery beyond all comprehension. What began as a quest for revenge leads him to plunge into the darkest corners of the world.

In a world where divinity is not inherited—but understood—children are drafted into realms that reshape their souls. Xīng Hé awakens naturally, without guidance, without protection, and without knowing what her power truly is. Chen Yè, a street orphan with no visible concept, survives by intellect alone in a system that measures worth through divinity. Yao Xian, an attendant bound by centuries of pain, watches another generation walk the path she once failed to escape. As realms fracture and concepts clash, evolution comes with a cost—one paid in blood, memory, and identity. Power is not gained freely. It is extracted, refined, and sometimes stolen. This is not a story about heroes rising quickly. It is about what remains after survival, when divinity is no longer a blessing—and choice itself becomes a weapon.

Born to a crown she never wanted. Bound to a legacy she refuses to obey. As the king's illegitimate daughter, her bloodline is his curse - one forged in secrets, violence, and hidden bones. Princess Valerie Aurum Kryon Bonesses has spent her life in the shadow of a heartbroken king who would rather see her perfect and buried than just and crowned. But when Valerie is thrust into a war for a throne built on cruelty, she discovers that some legacies are not inherited... they are conquered. As she uncovers the horrors her family hides behind gilded walls, she vows to expose every secret - even if it means tearing her kingdom apart. Her rebellion will shatter a dynasty. Her mercy will forge a new kingdom. In a realm where heirs are broken to prove their worth, Valerie must decide: become the monster her family made... or destroy the crown that created them. The bones of the royal family are cracking - and a new queen will rise from the ruins. @All Rights Reserved

A Love Born in Lies A love born in silence. A past buried in shadows. A heart caught between truth and illusion. --- I don’t remember who I was. Not the girl in the mirror. Not the life I left behind. All I know is this mansion… And him—Professor. My husband. Cold. Untouchable. Mysterious. A man who says I belong to him… Yet looks at me like he’s already lost me. He doesn’t smile. He barely speaks. But the way he watches me— Like he's guarding something he’s terrified to break— it haunts me more than the gaps in my memory. Then come the fragments. A sister’s voice. A forgotten diary. A flower shop. A crash. And the moment I start to remember… everything starts to fall apart. --- What if the man I live with is part of the lie? What if the truth is more dangerous than the illusion I’m living in? What if… the love I’m falling into is the one thing I was meant to escape?

Ethan Heart lived an ordinary life on Earth-poor, unnoticed, and destined for nothing. When he died saving a child, he believed his story had ended. Instead, it began. He awakens in Aeris, a fantasy world ruled by races born from myth-dragons, elves, vampires, giants, and more-where every sentient being gains power through an Awakening at the age of fifteen. Reborn as a weak, mute orphan, Ethan should have remained insignificant. But during his Awakening, something ancient stirs. Deep within his Sea of Consciousness, a sword bound to his heart awakens alongside him. Silent. Timeless. Waiting. As Ethan rises from obscurity, the sword grows with him, drawing the attention of factions, worlds, and forces that should never have noticed a boy from a small human-controlled planet. The truth behind his rebirth, his lost parents, and the sword’s origin slowly begins to surface—hinting at a past the universe itself tried to bury. This is the story of a man who was never chosen— Yet becomes impossible to ignore.

As an Ascended, one of humanity’s enhanced defenders, Ash’s very existence is a slow poison to the people he loves. He only wants to die so his family can finally live, but fate won’t let him go. Instead, his mind is torn from his body and forced into a Godborn: a divine vessel trapped in a trial where death is very real, and permanent. Now Ash is locked in a race against a cruel paradox: - If he dies in the trial, the Godborn takes his real body and kills his family. - If he survives, he’s dragged back to his world to keep destroying them just by existing. To save the only people he cares about, Ash must win a trial he never asked for, in a body weaker, more fragile, and no less mortal than his own. No. Even worse...

I woke up suddenly in a room I had never seen… in a body that was not my own. My name? Dan Noctayne. Heir to a noble lineage renowned for their mastery over the Darkness element. Yet, my talent in Darkness is pitiful—barely enough to manifest. Instead, I possess a legendary, unheard-of gift: The Space Element. This world is merciless. Ranks define your worth. Races and realms collide—Humans, Demons, and beyond. Elemental talents clash, blood flows like rivers, and the drums of war never fall silent. But I have discovered something far more terrifying… Every time I die, I return. I endure the agony, I taste the bitterness of death… and then, I rise again. Wait… am I inside a novel? If so, it’s a story I’ve never read before.

Crossing into the 2D world, with both parents dead, money in my pocket, and a place to live. Even if the universe’s ‘no-imouto clause’ is in effect, this still looks like the classic daily-life harem-protagonist trajectory in a 2D world, right? Surely next comes the otaku-bait development, a wonderful story of being surrounded by girls, yes? [Welcome to the “Sacrifice Game.” We wish you the chance to witness the end within true fear.] Wait a sec— This script isn’t right, is it? Corpses whispering, shadowed pits creeping, paper effigies asking for directions, a cursed village’s night patrol, an eye peering from under the bed… Grotesque rules weave a blood-stained net; there is no escape. Only by facing the endless nightmare head-on can one fight for a sliver of life. So, since I’m being entangled by all these horrors, can I get a system? Preferably the kind that becomes overpowered just by checking in! While I was thinking that, I realized I’d gotten the ability to roll back after death. It sure is a cheat—but doesn’t that mean I have to keep betting my life on trial and error? I refuse! I don’t want to be a Subaru-style, die-and-retry protagonist! Someone save me, please! Then I turned around and saw the girls trapped with me: Shinomiya Kaguya, Fujiwara Chika, Gotō Hitori, Yotsuya Miko, and others. Damn it, then bring it on! How could I let beautiful girls be sacrificed in a place like this? I’ll create a happy world—no Urobuchi-style tragedy and no grimdark despair! .... This is a translation of a Chinese Novel, with minor changes in some parts of the original story.

Yokai Awakening follows the rise and fall of a bloodline tied to both glory and ruin. Long ago, Prince Mydeimos Crimson, the firstborn of the Crimson King, stood as the strongest of his kind—a ruler blessed with love, family, and unmatched power. But in a single tragic moment, he lost everything: his wife, his children, and even his own life. No one, not even the Crimson King himself, knows how he truly died. Centuries later, the Crimson name is no longer a symbol of peace but of fear—monsters seeking to reshape the world in their image. In this new era, a boy named Jae Hoon is born. Unlike the corrupted legacy of the Crimsons, Jae cherishes his family, dreams of protecting those he loves, and longs to create a better world. From childhood, he learns magic, awakens his mana core, and begins uncovering the hidden truths of the world—and of himself. But fate is cruel. Betrayed and humiliated by Princess Liora in the royal capital, Jae returns home only to find his village in flames. There, before his very eyes, a hooded figure slaughters his people and rips his father apart in the most horrific way imaginable. Cornered at the edge of a cliff, Jae faces certain death—until a mysterious system appears before him with a single question: “Do you wish to awaken?” That moment marks the beginning of Jae Hoon’s Yokai Awakening—a rebirth into a world filled with political issues,power hungry, deadly yokai beasts, and unending war. Yet even with his new strength, peace is fragile. To survive, Jae must endure betrayal, political strife, and battles that push him to his very limits, all while uncovering the mysteries of his reincarnation, the Crimsons, and his own destiny. At its heart, Yokai Awakening is a tale of fantasy, action, reincarnation, and hope—where one boy dares to challenge fate itself to forge the world of his dreams.

Welcome to a world where survival demands dying once first. For a thousand years, humanity has lived under the constant threat of the Calamities monsters born from ether, a mysterious energy that appeared during a long-forgotten cataclysm. To avoid a lethal overload, every human must consume a daily serum, tightly controlled by the Order. Without it, death is inevitable. At sixteen, everyone must face the Awakening, a spiritual trial from which only 30% emerge alive. Those who survive gain a Resonance, a unique power, and become Initiates the last line of defense against the Calamities. Sirius is a cynical young hitman from the slums of Astoria. He seeks neither glory nor power, only a quiet life alongside his twin sister Iris and their friend Lucy. Everything changes when an embargo on the serum strikes the city, plunging it into chaos. As the death toll rises, Sirius comes to realize that the true monsters are not always the ones being named. In the shadows, a sinister conspiracy unfolds: parasites implanted in the brains of Initiates distort their senses and emotions, turning the survivors of the Awakening into obedient instruments, unable to distinguish truth from illusion. Cornered, Sirius, Iris, and Lucy are left with only one choice: face the Awakening themselves and inherit powers as unpredictable as they are dangerous. Saving everyone is not their priority. The Order, the manipulated Initiates, and the Calamities are merely obstacles to bypass or opportunities to exploit as long as it keeps them alive. But in a world where reality itself can be falsified, how far can one go without becoming the very thing they fight? Discord: https://discord.gg/spCNaXxape

“Change is the only constant in every world.” They would one day speak of the Kingdom of Hearts as the first of its kind. Of a king whose moves reshaped the land. But every kingdom has a beginning — and this story starts long before the crown. This is my first time writing, and english isn't my first language. Author’s Note: This story was originally written in Portuguese and translated with AI assistance.

“Peace never lasts long when Heaven writes your story.” This is Arc 2 of The Living Scripture series. Readers are strongly encouraged to complete Arc 1 – Flame & Breath first. Max thought she’d earned a honeymoon, not a new apocalypse. With Seth, the man who breathes silver storms beside her, they return to a world that’s already forgotten how to kneel. Demons are learning to pray, angels are choosing sides, and humanity is once again in the middle of everyone’s bad decisions. Max could explain what’s coming… but she’s too busy making sure the world doesn’t explode before her coffee does. The Living Scripture – Rise of the Unseen Because some miracles arrive with sarcasm and scorch marks. Follow the arc. It won’t hurt you… emotionally. Probably.

In a future where Earth is burnt away by man's folly, the Emperor of Mankind leads humanity into the stars and founds an empire powered by the Living Flame, a force both powerful and of absolute authority. But beneath the Empire’s glory sits an older, nameless Enemy: something formless and impossible that helped birth the Flame… and may still be guiding it. Three children are born under ominous, converging fates. Zayn enters the world hidden from the Living Flame, marked as an outcast before he can even speak. On the brutal mining world of Mortrum, Ash grows up under acid rain and slavery’s cruelty, until one violent act of self-defense shatters the fragile life he’s been protecting. In the white halls of House Whiterock, Luna, the “Silver Princess”, is heir to a throne but denied the Flame’s gifts, making her both a political liability and a target. Watching all of them is Avraham Darkflame, an Inquisitor with secrets, debts, and a plan years in motion. As the Empire tightens its grip, the three are pulled toward the same chain-bound destiny… one that could break the Living Flame’s dominion but may ignite something far worse.
