Survival story of a realm wanderer

At the beginning of time, a large group of powerful beings engaged in a war that shattered the universe. The universe became fragmented and somewhat unstable, but eventually—despite the chaos—everything stabilized and the situation improved. The universe was now split into countless realms with almost no contact between them. Because of this minuscule interaction rate, the realms developed in completely different directions. Some remained similar; others became utterly alien. The inhabitants of many realms do not even know other realms exist beyond their boundaries. The beings that fought in this war have been called by countless names and titles across different eras and epochs. But in the current era, no title fits them better than Gods. Very few beings today know the truth of what really happened in the first epochs. Even among those few, fewer still know the full truth. They know the gods fought a war, but very few know what caused it—and even fewer know what the gods fought against. But one thing remains unknown to all: why the gods mysteriously disappeared. The countless realms were fragmented and separated; ways to travel between them were extremely limited. In the third epoch, one of the most powerful gods noticed this problem and sacrificed their essence to create a gate that could connect the different realms. This gate existed in a place far from any realm, yet at the same time existed within every realm. It was later named “The Myriad Gate.” And this gate is the centerpiece in the story of a boy named Asher Blackwood. The gate was his only blessing and, at the same time, his sole curse. It made him turn ugly while he took a beautiful journey.

The Awaken of Paige

Five years after her family was destroyed by greed, betrayal, and cold-blooded murder, Paige vanished—presumed dead by the very world that failed her. Now living under the identity of Victoria, she struggles to hold the fragments of her life together, caring for her siblings while desperately trying to save her broken mother. But something inside her is unraveling. A serial killer has been hunting the guilty—criminals who escape justice—leaving behind a trail of blood and silent judgment. Deep down, Victoria knows the truth she refuses to face: something dark within her is awakening. And then there are the twins. Xavier—dangerous, magnetic, irresistibly lethal. His sculpted presence and haunting aura pull her into a darkness she cannot control, igniting a violent hunger that thrives on blood and sin. Around him, morality blurs, and destruction feels intoxicating. Alexander—the complete opposite. Gentle, refined, disarmingly kind. His warmth feels like a sanctuary, a dream wrapped in softness and light. With him, Victoria glimpses a life untouched by chaos… a peace she fears she does not deserve. Torn between two identical faces from entirely different worlds, Victoria begins to question her sanity. She knows who she is—or at least, who she used to be. So why is she drawn to both men? Why does one awaken her darkness, while the other tempts her with salvation? Desperate for answers, she sets out to uncover the truth behind her fractured mind. But the truth finds her first. In a devastating turn of fate, buried secrets rise, forcing Paige to confront the monster she has become. Darkness and light collide, and the cost of truth demands more than she is prepared to lose. Reborn from pain, Paige rises—not as a victim, but as something far more dangerous. A deadly assassin driven by vengeance. And this time, she shows no mercy—whether the enemy is family, foe… or the ones who once dared to stand beside her.

Shining Light In Steel [A Girls Frontline Fanfic]

(Exported from Wattpad. You can check it out in Wattpad if you want. And if you want, you can also support me both in Wattpad and here in Webnovel!) --- Alright, let's see what we have here: - A young man with amnesia. But not just any young man with amnesia, but a supposed 'young man' with amnesia who's comprised of metal, wires, and complex programs. [√] - Suddenly woke up from a cryostasis inside of an old bunker with no explanation whatsoever. [√] - Having no clue what is even going on around him. [√] - Decides to walk out from the said bunker after gathering the scraps left behind by the former inhabitant and embark on his new adventure into the strange new world. [√] Those aspect combined fits well into the typical 'protagonist woke up with amnesia and set out for his journey across the new world and to defeat the main antagonist' kind of story. But unfortunately, this isn't the fantasy world that he's expecting/hoping to woke up into. Instead, he's greeted by the rusty, gritty sight of Earth in the year 2060's. Undead abominable creations caused by 'ELID', rogue robots that kills any living beings on sight, factions consist of ideals & goals, and the political power at play across Europe. With all being said, let's see how this 'young man' could fare against the unforgiving reality of the situation He have put himself into against his own will. Whether a variable like him could truly shine a bright light among the other beacons, to make a different in the brave new world He woke up into, or will the past memories He no longer remember eventually caught onto to him; forcing him into circumstances that question and put his own choices, morality, necessity, and dignity to the test.

The Apex Devision

Every city has an official version of itself. And then there's the truth. In a city that prides itself on order, certain cases close too cleanly. Certain deaths are ruled natural too quickly. Certain powerful people are never quite touched by investigations that come uncomfortably close — and then, somehow, don't. APEX DIVISION is a high-stakes procedural thriller set in a city where wealth, legacy, and power operate by a completely different set of rules than the ones Reid's team enforces. Each case peels back another layer of a world where old money funds hidden agendas, where loyalty is manufactured and then weaponised, and where institutions that are supposed to dispense justice have been quietly, methodically hollowed out. The city looks orderly from above. From the inside, it's a machine — and someone is running it. At the edge of every case they solve, a symbol appears. I. APEX DIVISION is for readers who want their mysteries to mean something — who love the satisfaction of a solved case and the unease of realizing the solution opened a larger room. It's a series about smart people doing difficult work in a world that is more deliberately broken than it appears, written with the belief that the best crime fiction isn't really about crime at all. It's about what people protect, what they destroy, and the narrow, complicated space between devotion and obsession. The city has an official version of itself. Reid's team is going to find out what it's hiding. APEX DIVISION — because the perfect crime is never the point. It's always the door.
