Scholar's Mate

“In an age where knowledge cuts deeper than knives, Victoria is about to learn far more than is safe for any soul to bear.” Victoria and Robert were torn from the gentle dullness of their ordinary century and cast into a realm governed by proto-concepts—those ancient, unblinking truths from which life, death, and divinity themselves are carved. Proclaimed “Heroes” by a world too desperate to question its own choices, they were commanded to rise in strength, confront a Demon Lord, and deliver salvation to a land that had never been theirs. Robert donned the mantle with the fervour of a man stepping into destiny. Victoria… hesitated. And in that hesitation, something old—older than scripture, older than light—turned its gaze toward her. She felt its attention like a draft through a locked room. In a moment poised between terror and terrible understanding, she accepted its offer: a contract sealed in silence, a year of her life exchanged for a thing that should never have been permitted to exist. Not in this world. Not in any. She did not yet grasp that, in straying from the Hero’s ordained path, she had not merely shifted her fate— she had begun to unwrite the very scaffolding of her humanity. Now Victoria walks like a phantom through a world that has marched on without her— one year behind the celebrated Hero, yet burdened with an insight so sharp it threatens to cut her free from mortality itself. She can now trespass upon knowledge forbidden to scholars, sorcerers, or even those who stand at the pinnacle of human mastery. She commits the kind of acts whispered only of beings who have stepped beyond the human threshold… and never returned. And in a world built on primordial, immovable truths, one truth endures: Knowledge is power. But power, when mishandled, becomes a curse that devours its bearer— quietly, inevitably, like rot beneath embroidered silk.

Apocalypse: Infinite Breaker Online

#WSA2026 -- [ Contains lemons, explicit wording, and gore ] Infinite Breaker Online descended upon Earth like an apocalypse, forcing every human to play the game for twelve hours a day. Five years later, the First War of Worlds came to an end, and Axir Grimspire emerged as one of the Ten Sovereigns who led humanity to victory. He had everything. A girlfriend of five years, trusted friends, a powerful guild he had personally built from the ground up, enemies, and rivals. He shared his strength freely and put his girlfriend on a pedestal, treating her like a queen and fulfilling her wishes because he loved her. Then the truth was revealed. Axir was betrayed, ambushed, and left gravely injured by the very people he trusted most. His girlfriend and his friends. To them, he had been nothing more than a tool. Everything he earned, everything he built, had been for their benefit alone. Not only that, his only family, his sister, was sexually assaulted and killed by the two very men he considered his brothers. And at the edge of one of the four Forbidden Zones, the Godfall Abyss Cliff, they cast him aside. No one had ever returned from Godfall Abyss. Players who died in the forbidden area could not respawn. Dying there was true death. Player Axir died. Some wept. Some rejoiced. But...it was not the end. As Axir fell into the abyss and met his final death, an Ultra Unique Event activated. Hidden within the forbidden zone lay the Abyss of Desire, an event that granted a single wish to one who met the requirements to trigger it. Axir triggered it. His wish was simple. To return to the moment just before the one-week beta of Infinite Breaker Online arrived on Earth. Time reversed while his memory stayed complete. However, triggering this event also meant connecting the Abyss to Earth. It also changed 50% of the World of Belkris, the server with which Earth and other planets were connected. But that would not stop Axir from completing his goals. This time, he would use those who betrayed him instead. He would make their lives hell. This time, he would not be one of the strongest. He would be the strongest player, beat the game and unveil what lay beyond it!
