Only peace can save us. Sinn Bay once dreamed that this motto could define his life. But nothing can save him from suffering. His inner calm is constantly shattered from all sides. Life blends into a waking nightmare, and every event feels like an endless stream of derealization. The absurdity of existence in its purest form — a rebellion against a senseless world. A tragic hero, trapped in a ruthless reality, spiraling into egocentrism and self-gratification at the cost of others. This is the story of a man who lost everything — and now unravels the fabric of existence to repay the favor.

Oren falls into a foreign land after surviving something that should have erased him entirely. Whatever he once was, whatever power or purpose he held, is gone. He awakens weak, human, and surrounded by people who treat suffering as routine and survival as currency. ( will probably change) (Author’s note: The title of this story may change in the future. Those who continue reading will understand that the current title relates to the MC’s past.)

Sylas never expected to die on an ordinary day—much less because of a god’s “clerical error.” Thrown into the deadly world of Arifuerta, Sylas must navigate monsters, mystery, and the limits of his new power. After all, if fate made a mistake killing him… He might as well make the most of it.

Zekai is twenty-two and has already decided that life is meaningless. He has no job, no ambition, and no interest in the future. While others chase purpose, he watches from the sidelines, convinced that the world runs on illusions people are too afraid to question. Then his grandfather dies during a circus performance. The death is ruled an accident. The silence afterward is not. Something is left behind—something old, something deliberate. From that moment, Zekai begins to notice what others cannot: patterns beneath coincidence, intent behind tragedy, and a presence that seems amused by his existence. The city changes around him. Crimes grow stranger. People disappear without explanation. Whispers spread of a figure who appears in moments of fear—part savior, part nightmare. Zekai does not seek to become anything. He only reacts. Yet the more he intervenes, the more the world pushes back. Every choice carries consequences he cannot escape. Every step forward reveals another layer of truth he was never meant to see. Some paths offer power. Some demand sacrifice. Some do not allow turning back. As Zekai is pulled deeper into a hidden side of the city—where justice, guilt, desire, and fate collide—he is forced to confront a question no one can answer for him: Is freedom something you choose… or something taken from you the moment you play along? Because this story is not about destiny fulfilled. It is about what remains when the final number is reached— 22.

On the day known as the Great Awakening, the barrier separating mortals, spirits, and gods shattered without warning. Divine influence poured into the world like rain and the world was forever changed. Aren Cross stood at the very top of that new world, one of the strongest Hunters to ever live. For that strength, he was betrayed. In his final moments, Aren attempted to evolve once more, to abandon humanity and ascend as a god. He failed. But, instead of death, Aren awakens in his high school classroom, moments before his first bloodline awakening ceremony. This time, with knowledge of the future, he will choose the strongest Evolutions. Water and Fire are opposing elements? Why not pick both? Wings or Burrowing Traits? Let me take them all.

For thousands of years, people have clung to life in a Victorian world split down the middle by something that should never have been. On one side: the mortal empire—smoke-choked factories, gas lamps flickering in narrow streets, the clatter of machinery and the press of too many bodies in too-small spaces. On the other: the Marrow Depth, a twisted mirror of everything we know, rotting with sins no one alive remembers committing. When the Blue Moon rises, the Depth wakes up. Things crawl through. Things that were once something else, maybe even human. Kill them, consume what’s left, and you’ll feel power flood your veins—strength beyond anything natural. But there’s a price. There’s always a price. The corruption doesn’t announce itself. It creeps in quietly, changing you in ways you won’t notice until it’s far too late. Our ancestors survived because something—someone—shattered the space between worlds and left seven seals holding the worst of the Depth at bay. We’ve lived in that shadow ever since, telling ourselves the barrier will hold. That the Primordial’s sacrifice was enough. But the cracks are spreading. The people in power know it. They’ve known for a long time. And they’ve decided we’re better off not knowing what’s coming.

In an age of blood, steel, and freezing spray, a Viking’s worth is measured by the swing of his axe. They are raiders. They are conquerors. They are the terror of the North. Ragnar, the eighteen-year-old bastard son of a starving chieftain, is none of these things. Just a month ago, he was a Senior Naval Architect in Seattle, designing high-efficiency cargo vessels. Now, he stands on a frozen fjord in 865 AD, facing a suicide mission to England that threatens to wipe out his village. Mocked for his refusal to raid and his obsession with "wizard words" like logistics and drag coefficients, Ragnar is dismissed as a coward. But they are all wrong. Where they see a longship, he sees a displacement curve waiting to be optimized. Where they see a storm, he sees wind energy waiting to be harnessed. They say his methods are madness. Soon, they will realize that while they are playing at war, he is engineering an empire. -------- Disclaimer: *Kingdom Building & Tech-Uplift: MC uses modern engineering to revolutionize the Viking Age. *Weak-to-Strong: Starts as a despised bastard, progresses to a wealthy tycoon/warlord. *High Detail: Detailed descriptions of ship-building and primitive industrialization.

One day, Soren and his classmates are suddenly transported into a world full of magic, monsters, and unimaginable dangers. Everything they thought they knew about reality is shattered, and survival becomes a game where every decision could mean life or death. As powers awaken and secrets unravel, Soren must navigate a world that rewards the cunning, tests loyalty, and forces him to confront how far he is willing to go to endure.

In a world governed by divine systems, sacred gifts, and carefully curated destinies, the greatest threat is not a demon lord or a fallen Divinity—but an anomaly the world itself cannot observe. When Null, a seemingly unremarkable human, is summoned alongside a proclaimed Otherworldly Hero to the mighty Atlantis Empire, he is immediately marked as a mistake. While heroes are celebrated, Null is ignored—until an Ultimate Ability awakens within him. That ability is Fantasy Omniscience. Unlike sacred gifts granted by the World, Fantasy Omniscience is a transcendental intelligence capable of reading existence itself as a novel—past, present, and confirmed futures laid bare in absolute truth. It bypasses fate, divine concealment, prophecy, and even the World’s own narrative control. Yet there is a paradox. Fantasy Omniscience cannot fully observe its own user. Null exists as a conceptual blind spot—a being excluded from causality, unrecorded by destiny, and immune to narrative correction. The World cannot define him. Deities cannot foresee him. Even omniscience cannot predict what he will become. In a world where every story demands a final enemy to justify its ending, Null is not the hero. He is the unresolved variable. The one existence the story cannot conclude. And if the world insists on survival… It may have no choice but to make him its Final Antagonist.

Demon King Roselle, who helped a girl who would later change his life and discover much about his own life in the process...

76 years ago, the world changed. Or rather, should I say it evolved? Even so, this, "evolution" came at a price. Or maybe, the 'price' is what caused the evolution in the first place. What is this 'price', you ask? An invasion. Monsters from another world. Creatures we've only known through fork lore, myths and fantasy novels. They came from portals, known as Dungeon Gates, threatening all of mankind as we knew it. So in order to fight this catastrophe, the evolution happened. Half of the world's already large population Awakened as superhumans with Skills, Spells and Special Attacks all so they could pass through the Gates, enter the Dungeons and clear them. One by one. Thus marked the beginning of the Great Age Of Warriors. Name's Raid. And I'm one such Warrior. Now here's the kicker. I'm an F-Rank. The first one in history. Due to my low Mana Capacity, I could only choose one Class. The infamous Blacksmith Class. A Class no one even looked at twice, because weapons of mass destruction can easily be created with today's technology without much hassle. Now I'm faced with the reality of being seen as the weakest Warrior of all time, but you know what? To hell with it all. I'll make the most of the cards I've been dealt, even if those cards are...pretty shitty cards. I'll show all those High-Ranked Warriors what's what. They'll know my name whether they want to or not. Tag along for the ride if you're interested. Because once I get going, I'm not stopping until I reach the top.

The first thing he learned about the world was that it had a ceiling. It was very far away. At the very bottom of a world made of layers, a nameless man awakens beneath a sky he cannot reach and among laws that do not recognize him. In this abyss, law is the only truth, and power is taken by those who dare to climb and discover themselves. Each layer above holds new civilizations, new rules, rulers, and fragments of something that governs reality itself. To grow, one must exert one's own willpower on the world as law, and to conquer, that law must triumph over all else.

Mike died in the stupidest way possible: electrocuted because of a coworker who was too distracted trying to flirt. Just when he thought he could finally rest in peace, a “god” decided his life had been far too boring and reincarnated him into a fantasy world… as the Demon Lord. Yes, the final boss. Before he even had time to understand what was happening, a Heroine stormed his castle determined to kill him. Desperate and with no idea how to use his new power, Mike faked his own death and escaped using an ability he didn’t even know he had. The plan was perfect. Except for one small detail. The Heroine appeared right beside him. Now the two of them awaken in the middle of a forest, far from the battlefield… and she remembers absolutely nothing. Not the war. Not her mission. Not who he is. Taking advantage of the most suspiciously convenient opportunity of his new life, Mike pretends that he has lost his memories as well. And so, the two decide to travel together and settle in a small town, trying to start over from scratch. But adapting to a peaceful life isn’t so easy when: — He is, technically, the most powerful former Demon Lord in the world. — She was humanity’s greatest weapon. — And on top of that… the Heroine turns out to be socially disastrous, with an irrational fear of men. Between odd jobs, failed attempts to act like a “normal human,” constant suspicion, and absurd arguments, the two begin an awkward life together. While the world enjoys a fragile peace after the mysterious disappearance of the Demon Lord and the Heroine, no one suspects that both of them are living under false identities.

“Let's set a small goal: Defeat Kakashi.” Shinichi Higashino wakes up in the world of Naruto. He has no famous clan and no powerful Bloodline Limit. Instead, he possesses a unique ability: How others perceive him becomes his reality.

A scar appears in the sky. At first, it is just an incision in the light—a disturbance in the perfect dome that the Valthera Temple has called order for centuries. But scars don't appear out of nowhere. They tell us about something that has already been broken. Marco is not looking for meanings. He has learned to remain invisible. Still, something in him responds when the sky vibrates. Every step on the city's rocks seems to take him towards a border that shouldn't exist. Elira sees change before anyone else—not as a light or a miracle, but as a silent transition between man and the world. Because not all tears are destruction. Some of them are opportunities. The temple interprets the scar as a warning. Others call it an invitation. When the surface of perfection begins to crack, the question is no longer who controls power—but whether it can be controlled at all. this story is a philosophical and atmospheric fantasy novel about power, faith and choice. It tells of a world where balance is not born from purity, but from the acceptance of imperfection — and how one silent decision can change the direction of heaven.

Every two months, humans fall asleep... and awaken in another world. Chosen by the gods, they gain Devine Blessings: access to a System to help them grow stronger and are sent on Divine Expeditions to save dying civilizations or carry out "Devine Justice" in a distant world. They return as heroes, stronger each time. Ronin is different. Blessed by a sealed god, he wields a forbidden power: he absorbs the strength of anything he kills. As he rises through the ranks and battles monsters, rivals, and divine forces, disturbing truths begin to surface. Regions once saved fall again. The System grows more controlling. And Corrupted Beings of forgotten Timeliness Arise. Ronin begins to question Are the gods truly Helping these Civilizations... or using them? In a world guided by Devine Will, strength is only the beginning.

The world didn't end with a bang, but with a 'Zero.' When the Giza Empire descended from the stars, they didn't just conquer Earth—they rewrote its physics. In their new world order, nature is a glitch, and magic is a currency reserved for the elite. Amani, the young "Lion of the South" from Arusha, was born with the power to command gravity. But in the eyes of the Giza, he is nothing more than an "unauthorized variable" to be deleted. To save his people, Amani must lead a ragtag pack of outcasts across the globe to retrieve the Four Fragments of the Prime Core—ancient artifacts capable of resetting reality itself. Japan: The Fragment of Will (Hidden in a sea of ink and samurai code). Germany: The Fragment of Mind (Locked inside a city of perpetual clockwork). Russia: The Fragment of Body (Guarded by a Tsar who cannot be broken). USA: The Fragment of Soul (Lost in a wasteland of illusions). Guided by the mysterious Darius—a man who knows too much about the enemy’s secrets—the Pack must level up their powers or be crushed by the Giza’s mechanical gods. But as the ice of Siberia melts and the iron gates of the world’s most dangerous Gulag slam shut, Amani realizes the most terrifying truth of all: The greatest threat isn't the Empire in front of him... it’s the shadow walking beside him.
