The Last Godfall: Transmigrated as the Young Master

They call me Vencian Vicorra… third son of a noble house. A prodigy born for greatness. They couldn’t be more wrong. I’m Luke. I woke in his body, carrying his memories and his burdens… but none of his gifts. Without any magic or training and no clue how I even got here. A midnight ritual tied my life to a fate I never wanted... my family is falling apart under charges of treason, my engagement ended without a word from me, the court watches every move. And somewhere, my death is already written. To survive, I must do the impossible... wear the mask of talent and become the man everyone expects. I’ll learn to lie with conviction and find secrets worth killing for. But every secret I uncover drags me closer to a truth that could end more than my disguise. Fail, and I’ll lose the only life I’ve found worth living. Succeed, and I might discover what killed the real Vencian... and why my death may be the key to something darker. A slow-burn story of supernatural investigation, hidden schemes, and buried secrets, where every lie reveals a deeper truth. Behind noble courts and sacred cathedrals lies a world ruled by celestial laws and occult myths, where power demands the sacrifice of identity, and the fall begins long before corruption takes hold.

Phantom Wayfarers

Sebastian’s life is turned upside down when he is unexpectedly thrust into the dangerous and unpredictable world of the Realm Walkers. As he navigates this new reality, he must face deadly challenges, forge uneasy alliances, and confront secrets that could change everything he knows about himself and the realms around him. With every choice carrying high stakes, Sebastian discovers that surviving this world means more than just strength—it requires courage, wit, and the resilience to overcome the darkest twists of fate. Note that the build up of the first few chapters may seem slow. Chapters per week 2-3 might increase to 5-7 Just lacking motivation ......... Sebastian pushed himself upright, though it felt as if the air itself had turned to tar around him. His thoughts drifted through a dense, suffocating fog that weighed more than his own limbs. Every breath was an effort. Every movement felt resisted by something unseen—something that clung to him without leaving a single bruise or mark to prove it existed. There was no chain. No wound. No logical reason for the heaviness sinking into his bones. And yet it was there. Relentless. He staggered toward the mirror standing quietly before him—too quietly, as if it had been waiting. A shard of memory flickered at the back of his mind, but every attempt to grasp it made the fog thicken, swallowing the thought before it could form. When he finally faced the glass, he froze. His reflection was… wrong. The face was his, yet the expression wasn’t. A smile threatened at the corners of his mouth—not his smile, but something using it. The eyes blinked half a second too late. And the longer he stared, the more the reflection seemed to grow aware of him, as though it had just woken up. A crawling cold travelled up his spine. “What… are you?” he whispered. His reflection tilted its head first. A smile still played across its lips—thin, deliberate, and wrong. There was no warmth in it. No flicker of anything human. It was a cold curve of the mouth, carved with the kind of precision that suggested practice rather than emotion. The eyes above it didn’t match the expression; they remained distant, unfocused, as though gazing at something beyond him trying but also failing to recall. Then its gaze focused on him It then spoke: “The scavenger of the Sovereign’s lost soul, A legacy bound to us… for the world to behold.”

Dead Secret

A long long time ago during The Cosmic Void Era, 3 600 years ago an astronomical catastrophe known as The 1st Vital Necro War transpired. A mighty and powerful entity known as The Archon Devil unleashed havoc, when he opened "The Black Gate" a rift in the fabric of time and space that connects the Mortal plane to the Abyssal plane. Forever condemning the mortal worlds to all of their woes, plagues and suffering. Whether or not they are directly or indirectly influenced and inflicted by The Maō (魔王), The Arch Demons (鬼), The Evil Spirits (悪霊) and The Semi Devils (悪魔). Thus in response The Arch Angels (天使) rose to the challenge, to battle the invasive parasitic monsters in order to re-establish balance and harmony to the cosmic order. 13 years later, amid the aftermath genius alien scientist and engineer Cerebellum Esau Isaac returns to the cyberpunk city of Neo Edo Tokoyo after a six-month absence to check on his teenage foster brother. However, he finds his younger brother Appuru Appolyse Kazeki hanging out with a mysterious rogue and shady character who calls himself Red. As they journey across the galaxy together, Isaac and Appolyse find themselves being wrongfully accused as they're labeled as criminals and fugitives for aiding and abetting. In turn they are constantly pursued by bounty hunters one of them being The Shaolin Mandarin, who abducts young Appolyse and takes him to a distant planet. Just because Red lied about his true identity and he just so happens to be The Red Hood. One of the most wanted criminals in the entire galaxy, and the intergalactic authorities are still hot on his trail and fast approaching.

Saga of the Void

"I just want to be me... Is that hard to ask?" Natsu woke up... and was just there. No memories, no family, nothing... just his name, and nothing more. Now living a quiet life on his own, secluded from the rest of everything, Natsu wants nothing more than peace. A simple home. A warm meal. A family he can protect. Yet fate refuses to grant him what he wants, what he simply wishes for. Behind his calm smile lies a being shaped by endless cycles of destruction and rebirth, a vessel carrying echoes of forgotten gods, ancient horrors, and truths that predate creation itself. Though stripped of much of his former power, the weight of existence still bends around him. Fate watches. The cosmos remembers. Gods whisper his name in reverence and fear. Entities watch him carefully and in silence. And the boundaries between worlds begin to tremble. As old powers stir and new threats emerge, Natsu finds himself caught between divine politics, cosmic forces, and the fragile humanity he desperately clings to. This is not a tale of conquest. It is a story of endurance. Of choosing kindness in a universe that demands cruelty. Of holding onto love when existence itself tries to tear it away. From quiet moments of family life to clashes that ripple across reality, the Saga of the Void weaves together cosmic horror, mythic fantasy, emotional intimacy, and slow-burning hope. Because even in a universe shaped by gods and monsters— Sometimes the greatest act of defiance is choosing to remain human. AUTHOR NOTES: I am currently writing a vast mythological epic + emotional mythopoetic saga and it contains graphic violence, very unnerving themes like gore, rape, torture, slavery, abuse, sexual content, etc... This will be a very compelling roller coaster experience and I hope you guys find it a meaningful read and enjoy it as well. WHAT TO EXPECT: -1 Chapter a day after the release of Chapter 05. New releases will now be between 1:00am-4:00am MNL Time. -Pacing of the story switches depending on the focus of the story. Expect the saga to be a slow burn most of the time, but it is a meaningful slow burn with a very gratifying pay off. -MC will have a lot of wives so be informed (they play a major role in the saga they're not just simple love interests) -MC is OP from the very beginning but be informed that this is not a simple power fantasy. -There will be lots of drama and uncomfortable topics and scenes. -The saga is more about character growth and identity exploration not just for the MC but for every casted characters. -Certain gods and cosmic entities will have genders reversed to female or male but mostly female.
