I am an evil mother, for I burdened my child with all the responsibility; my torment and my resentment.. The beautiful child who could not smile, grew up in pain and violence.. The traitor of the Empire, "Ayan de Altan," was executed in the public square... My child, whom I never looked at throughout the twenty-five years, never, smiled sadly and said arrogantly on the day of his execution: "I do not care for this Empire's hatred of me, for I never desired your good feelings. So here I am, being executed now to rid you of your final chains. The last Altan monster is executed; Altan will be erased from existence." Ayan was executed, but the pain and sorrow remained in my heart. Years after my son's death, I went to his grave and took a small bottle of purple poison, remembering what the seller said... ["It is a very harmful poison; it makes the one who drinks it suffer greatly, as if their body is being torn apart. Madam, is there someone you want to kill with such brutality?!"] I took a deep breath, opened the bottle cap, and poured it into my mouth. "I am the one who deserves to die in pain." I felt the poison starting to tear my body apart. I began to gasp and ache, tears burning in my eyes. "Ayan, I am sorry, my little one. If time could go back, I would have given you love instead of resentment. I would have held you more, told you that you are the best child in the world. I... I didn't hate you. I burdened you with my hatred for myself and my helplessness... my child, I love you, finally."

At ten, Rei Tsuzuki lost his village, his voice, and everything else to a demon attack. At seventeen, he was hailed as a Hashira but he's refused the title, because Hashiras go to the front lines, and someone has to make sure the wounded have a home to come back to. ---- Not a translation, doing it for fun

He watched the river swallow the only person he ever loved. For years, he carried the guilt, the grief, the silence. He built his life around a grave that never had a body. He mourned a boy who was supposed to be dead. Until one night, under a familiar moon, he sees him again. Alive. Breathing. But those eyes — the ones that once knew him better than anyone — look at him like a stranger. Because the boy who drowned survived. And the boy who survived forgot him.

“Doing the wrong thing for the right reason… never ends well for anyone.” Seven great races ruled the continent of Eldarion. Humans weren’t among them. To the world, mankind was nothing more than background noise, as insignificant as a breath of air, as laughable as a failed joke of creation. A race with no promise. No power. No future. Tyler was born into that world—a world where every “hero of humanity” was fated to fall before they could rise. So he abandoned the path of heroes entirely. He chose the road stained in shadows. He chose the power no sane soul would touch. He chose to become a demon— not for glory, but for survival. His purpose was simple: Ascend as the Demon King. Stand as a monstrous shield when the true invaders finally tear into their continent. And he succeeded. He rose higher, darker, and stronger than any being before him. But power has a price. A price he only understood when it was far too late. For in climbing toward salvation, He became the very abomination he once swore to destroy— The Desecrator. And the world whispered: “There is no lesser or greater evil. There is only evil.” Yet a more profound truth lingered in the dark: “Because sometimes, only one Evil can devour another.” *** Discord - https://discord.gg/4xbt5Nwrtn *** #Yandere #ComplexCharacters #NoHarem #Dark #RareBloodline #Magic #Slowburn #FatedLove #Demons #Dragons #Otherworlders #RunicSorcery #Evil-FL

I thought inheriting the Thorne estate would be a triumph. I thought I could command its halls, its art, its secrets. I was wrong. The house is alive. It watches. It whispers. Every desire I indulge, every temptation I surrender to, comes with a price I can’t yet see. Pleasure bleeds into fear, seduction into horror, and every choice I make threatens to claim more than my body… it wants my soul. In the shadows of this cursed legacy, I must navigate power, temptation, and the darkest corners of myself—or risk losing everything I thought I was. One wrong choice, and I’ll be trapped in its shadows forever.

After a dying he wakes up in a Baltimore hospital as Mr. Mikaelson. He quickly realizes he has arrived in the world of Hannibal, a place where psychological acuity is the ultimate weapon. Unlike the others, he possesses a suite of heightened cognitive abilities—"Scene Reading" and "Psychological Profiling"—that allow him to see the truth behind the polite masks of society. Knowing that Will Graham is being systematically broken by Hannibal Lecter, the "new" Mikaelson refuses to be a bystander. He begins building a secret arsenal of counter-evidence, working in the shadows with Beverly Katz to protect Will and expose the Chesapeake Ripper. He isn't just a new face in Baltimore; he is the only person who can see the monster in the room and is brave enough to hunt it. The Investigator’s Arsenal: The Powers Scene Reading: Inspired by expert forensics, this allows the host to reconstruct a crime. By observing blood patterns and disturbed objects, he can mentally visualize the murder as a ghostly recreation, seeing exactly how the killer moved and acted. Psychological Profiling: This power allows for the deep analysis of a subject's mental state. It grants the ability to "read" personalities, identifying hidden traumas, triggers, and the subtle deceptions used by sophisticated predators like Hannibal. Cold Logic: A passive mental state that allows the host to suppress fear and revulsion when faced with the macabre. It ensures that his analytical mind remains sharp even in the most gruesome crime scenes, though it can lead to emotional detachment. Counter-Manipulation: An advanced social skill that helps the host navigate conversations with high-level manipulators. It provides a "mental shield" against gaslighting and psychological steering, allowing him to hold his own in a battle of wits with Hannibal.

In this world, magic is not inherited… it is torn from the heart, and human worth is measured by a coin extracted when needed. Mythical stones decide who is worthy of wielding power, while stolen coins feed on human fates. When a forbidden force chooses a demon named Lilithia as the heir to a legendary stone, the system that claims justice begins to collapse. Mages thrive on blood, and the Drakhaen : descendants of dragons, enforce a balance that fears the truth. There are no heroes… and no absolute innocence. Only those who understand the game survive. As ancient seals shatter and the Ravagers of the Vein emerge, Lilithia’s existence is revealed to be more than a key to salvation… She is the door that will force the world to confront its own lie. Featuring a dual LitRPG system of Living Stones and Heart Coins, where power grows through synchronization, stolen fate, and dangerous progression. ( Original System LitRPG ) [Gender : Male Lead]

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it.

I was supposed to live quietly. Study hard, stay invisible, make my mother proud. No friends. No distractions. No boys. But then he happened — Adrian Madden. The university’s golden boy, the Prime Minister’s son, with eyes like winter storms and a smile that promised trouble. He saved me once — from humiliation, from the cruelty of others — and ruined me all the same. His charm was a weapon. His attention, a wildfire. And before I knew it, I was burning. We fell — recklessly, hopelessly, secretly. But love in his world was dangerous. When his family was framed, their mansion set ablaze, I lost him to the fire… or so I thought. Seven years later, I walk into Madden Corporation, desperate for a job — only to find him alive. Colder. Sharper. Untouchable.

And I don’t know if he’s here to love me again — or destroy what’s left of me.
