Changing FateWORLD

Arka was just an ordinary player obsessed with the legendary RPG Eclipse of Aethernia—a game filled with an epic story, an elite magic academy, wars between nations, and one painfully unforgettable ending: the protagonist, Aeron Valtherion, must sacrifice himself to seal the Demon God and save the world. Arka always hated that ending. But fate toyed with him. One night, after replaying a hidden route that had never been fully solved, Arka awakens in the world of Aethernia—not as an NPC or side character, but as Aeron Valtherion himself, the hero destined to die. Armed with complete knowledge of the story’s plot, hidden events, betrayals, and even his own death, Aeron realizes one thing: if he follows the original storyline, he will inevitably become a sacrifice for a world that never gave him a choice. Determined to change his fate, he enrolls once again at the prestigious Astralheim Magic Academy, where he reunites with key figures of the story—the royal princess, a genius mage from a noble house, the heir to a knightly clan, and a mysterious individual tied to a future tragedy. He knows who will become his allies, who will betray him, and who is meant to die. But the more he tries to alter events, the more the world seems to resist. Familiar incidents begin to shift. Battles grow more dangerous. Characters exceed their original limits. It is as if fate itself is adjusting to ensure that one outcome remains unchanged—his sacrifice. Behind the Aether magic system that sustains the world, Aeron uncovers an ancient secret: the “Eclipse Route,” a hidden path never fully revealed in the game. A possibility of a new ending—one where the Demon God can be defeated without costing his life. To reach it, he must surpass the limits of the original protagonist, defy the will of the gods, and risk the relationships that have become real to him. In a world written to end in tragedy, Aeron refuses to be a martyr. This time, the protagonist is not merely a character in a script. He is the player who knows that every world has a hidden loophole— And he will find it… or shatter fate itself.

[Romance] Lord Black Dragon Still Hasn't Hatched Today

Jasmine received "shocking" news: she had to marry the Dragon Ghost as his wife. But in exchange, after the marriage, she would inherit the entire estate, subjects, and territory of her husband. Jasmine was overjoyed: "Is there such a sweet deal in this world?" On the wedding day, she dressed up sharply and stepped into the magnificent cathedral, casting an affectionate glance toward her future partner. And then she saw... a Dragon Egg. The majestic Dragon Ghost was nowhere to be seen; there was only an egg lying there all by itself. Inventory of assets: A dilapidated castle, with drafty winds blowing in from all directions. Subjects: Three hundred skin-and-bone slaves who, at first glance, looked like walking skeletons about to collapse from hunger. Territory: A dead land spanning ten thousand square kilometers around the Dragon Valley, so desolate that "dogs eat stones and chickens eat pebbles." Jasmine knew she had fallen for the scam of the century, but unfortunately, the knights who escorted Jasmine here had long since "whipped their horses and vanished," running away a long time ago. An old butler, so aged he could barely walk, tremblingly stepped forward, waiting for the new Lord's instructions: "My Lord..." Jasmine held the "egg-husband" in her arms, and her rational nerves snapped: "I have land and people, could I really let myself starve to death?" Putting words into action, Jasmine rolled up her sleeves and officially embarked on the path of tilling the soil to get rich. Many years later. A strange town suddenly appeared on the mainland, rumored to be obscenely wealthy. From that place flowed exquisite fabrics, pure white porcelain, and sparkling jewelry... Anyone who had ever set foot there could not help but exclaim in amazement, while wandering poets competed to compose poems praising that prosperity until their throats were sore. A certain greedy King became overcome with avarice and brought a massive army, intending to seize the town for his own. The result? They were treated to the sight of a giant dragon descending from the sky to "pay them a visit."
