tragedy

What happens when guilt returns — not as a memory, but as your lover? After losing her parents in a tragic accident, Zara tries to rebuild her life, leaving her shattered past behind. But fate isn’t done with her yet. When she meets Zayan — a stranger who feels painfully familiar — her world begins to twist again. Every heartbeat pulls her closer, every truth pushes her away. Because sometimes… the one who heals you is the same one who broke you.

Curiosity is not about wanting to know the truth, but wanting to get closer to the abyss at any cost.

#WSA CONTEST 2026 A/N: ACTION PACKED CONTENT!! DING! [Welcome to Eyria] Ethan, known in his former life as Mesh, lived a hollow existence. Work. Sleep. Repeat. A life spent giving everything, and gaining nothing in return. Betrayed by the very people he trusted, his coworker and his boss, his life ended abruptly. Not with meaning… but with bitterness. Death, however, was not the end. He awakened in another world: Eyria. A land on the brink of collapse, where demons ruled the shadows of day and night, and humanity survived only by clinging to hope. Reborn as Ethan Cole, he entered a world already bleeding. There, he awakened a class unknown to Eyria. A hybrid class known as the 'Executioner'. It granted him overwhelming power, power designed to hunt demons without mercy. But that strength came at a cost. Each use carved away fragments of his humanity, replacing restraint with bloodlust, and reason with cold, lethal instinct. Still, Ethan made a vow. To erase demons from the face of Eyria. Yet as his power grows and his humanity fades, one question remains: Will Ethan become the shield that saves this world… or the blade that finally shatters it? Note: Schedule: 7 New chs/week. - MC is Overpowered but it comes at a cost.

“Never forget son,” Dusk remembered, each syllable resonated within his soul, as if it was a missing fragment of his existence. “Flaws make you grovel, a victim living at the mercy of those around you. If you seek true power, you must have no flaws. Live at the mercy of yourself.” He didn’t forget — no, couldn’t forget how the same person who held power as his sacred principle, grovelled in the filth and mud of the slums, flawed, weakened, battered, in front of a man draped in silk and contempt, begging for a week’s extension for a debt he can’t afford to pay. He couldn’t forget how the so-called perfect being, his father, one of the most powerful awakened, consumed in despair, ended it all with suicide. leaving his family to the rot of poverty, hunger, and neglect. It dawned on him as he stood, soaked from the pouring rain, staring at the grave of the last of his blood, his sister. If he doesn’t awaken, doesn’t become something more than once his father was, he will become another ornament in the slum’s filthy mud, discarded like his family. But after he awakens, instead of power and independence, awakening drags him into the ruthless world of the awakened, where unseen beings, hidden monarchs, hypocrites wearing halos use awakened as discardable pawns to their grand plan. “I will rise, and no one is going to make me grovel,” Dusk declares, choosing to carve his own path instead of submitting and crumbling to the world.

The fjord lay calm, its surface like polished glass, reflecting the leaden clouds hanging in the sky. Flocks of ravens circled back and forth, heralding the bitter northern winds soon to sweep southward. This was the very first scene the protagonist beheld after traveling through time to ninth-century Scandinavia. He had become nothing more than an ordinary self-sufficient farmer, with only a barren, desolate wheat field to his name. For centuries, the glory of the Roman Empire had crumbled into dust. The world lay shattered, kings waged endless wars against one another, and in this turbulent, dark Middle Ages, his first task was simply to survive—then, somehow, to find a way to end the chaos… ..........

For over 2.5 million years, the world has survived through an endless cycle of blood and balance. When monsters, gods, and unknown entities threaten existence, two forces stand at the frontlines—Hunters and Warriors. One hunts the unknown. The other wages war against fate itself. In the present era, a boy is drawn into this ancient conflict after encountering a power he was never meant to touch—a relic that does not grant strength, but demands sacrifice. Death is no longer an end, and survival comes at a terrible cost. As buried truths resurface, alliances fracture, and betrayal stains the battlefield, the line between hunter and warrior begins to blur. Legends long thought forgotten start to move once more—and with them, beings powerful enough to reshape reality itself. This is not a story of heroes.

The Last Existence — where every victory costs something, and no one escapes unchanged.

The world has been invaded by cruel creatures known as demons. After their own realm became uninhabitable, they fled to ours in a desperate bid for survival.

But among the ashes of despair, fate stirred. A mysterious bead merged into his soul, purifying the qi within his body.

Ella Tremaine was found dead in the school’s rear lobby. Bruises bloomed across her arms and legs. Cake stains dirtied her dress. The marks on her neck were fading, as if someone hoped they would disappear along with the truth. She died around midnight, while the rest of the school was still lost in the warmth of a dance party. This was murder. An Inspector was assigned to the case. Four suspects were questioned. Four of them confessed. Four confessions. Four different motives. Four different ways of killing the same girl. In a case where everyone is guilty, the truth becomes the first victim.

Synopsis In the modern world, Ling Tian wakes in a hospital after an accident on Floating Plaza Bridge, desperate to find his brother Yang. He learns Yang died swerving to avoid a fallen tree and save three children during a storm-induced mudslide. Grieving, Ling Tian visits The Lantern’s Fate—the shop he and Yang dreamed of opening—where Wu Lan arrives with a finished bird lantern identical to his birthmark, which Yang had left for their opening day. The two confess their long-held feelings for each other and agree to hang the lantern in Yang’s honor. That night, Ling Tian’s birthmark glows warm, pulling him into a vision of a mountain ledge in an unknown place. A boy who looks exactly like him—Lin Yun—lies wounded, clutching a glowing green plant as three armed men approach. Lin Yun presses the plant into Ling Tian’s hand and shares his wish to be strong enough to protect others before passing away. When their skin touches, a wave of light merges them, and Ling Tian vanishes from his bedroom, leaving only his green stone necklace and the blinking bird lantern to alarm Wu Lan and his parents. Ling Tian wakes in Lin Yun’s body on the cold ledge, then later finds himself tended to by a broad-shouldered man with Yang’s eyes, who teases him and insists on being called "Master Baby." The pair travels to The Crooked Mug tavern, where an old bearded man and a bright-eyed young girl approach their table, with the girl exclaiming that Ling Tian (as Lin Yun) is "the one." The girl helps herself to bread while the old man plays a flute and sings a song about time, space, and hidden paths, then shows off a glowing drink called "Brook-Song Gold" before they depart. When Yang returns slightly drunk, he steals two horses to escape the stable owner’s wrath, and Ling Tian clumsily mounts the second horse. They ride past cultivation sect lands—Sunfire Clan, Dragon’s Scale Herb Gardens, Earth Spirit Sect, and Misty Cloud Sect—before reaching Grass Valley Village. Yang notices Ling Tian’s unusual spiritual energy and questions him, then brushes it off as a joke. In the village, Ling Tian unconsciously releases a wave of energy to protect children from a falling tree branch, surprising guard Da Peng with powers he didn’t have days before. At the family estate, Ling Tian’s boxing stances confuse his father Lord Lin Wei, who scolds him before sensing his open meridians in awe. His sister Xiao runs to embrace him, and his mother Lady Mei Lian calms her husband. From the roof, the old man and girl sing their song again, then transform into radiant, divine forms before vanishing in silver mist. As Ling Tian’s hand touches his father’s, a jolt of power passes between them.
