Ren's Dagger

Seventeen years ago, the sky over Azura City tore open. From those jagged portals emerged a chaos that nearly leveled civilization, halted only by the emergence of the Shield—a secret order of elite warriors who stood as the final line of defense against the monstrous entities of the "Beyond." Today, the portals are a part of life, and joining the Shield is the only path to honor. ​For twin brothers Ren and Zen, the upcoming Shield Exam is the crossroads of their lives. Zen is the golden child—calm, precise, and possessing a natural talent that has already marked him as a future member of the Ten Leaders. Ren, however, is fueled by nothing but raw, reckless willpower. While his brother glides through training, Ren is the underdog, constantly dismissed by his peers and struggling to prove he belongs in a world where magic is outlawed and only results matter. ​The gap between them becomes a chasm when Zen achieves a legendary status during the trials, while Ren is left behind, branded a failure. In a moment of brotherly parting, Zen leaves Ren with a single, strange parting gift: a weathered, unremarkable dagger. To the other aspirants, it is a cruel joke—a pity prize for the brother who couldn’t make the cut. ​But as Azura City faces a new wave of portal activity and deep-seated secrets begin to leak from the Shield’s shadows, Ren realizes his journey isn't over. Haunted by his brother’s success and his own perceived weakness, Ren must decide if he will accept his fate or forge a new one. In a world that has already written him off, the "useless" dagger may be the only thing standing between Ren and the darkness threatening to consume his home.

REBORN AS A HIGH ELF IN ANOTHER WORLD

Look, I’ll be honest. My previous life was… pathetic. I worked myself to the bone, had zero love life, and my grand finale? I saved a woman from kidnappers, and she thanked me by stabbing me in the heart. (She panicked. Long story. It still hurts though). I thought that was the end. Game over. But then I woke up. The good news? I’m alive. The weird news? I have pointy ears. I’m a High Elf. The really bad news? I’m chained to a wall in a dungeon, smelling like wet dog and misery. Apparently, this body has been a slave for 10 years. I was ready to accept my fate as a punching bag for some nobles. But then, a beautiful, glowing blue box appeared in front of my face. [System Initialized] [Race: High Elf (Lifespan: Endless)] [Mana: 3000] [Skill Unlocked: Matter Manipulation] Wait, 3000 Mana? Matter Manipulation? Creating spells from scratch? The guards think I’m just another broken toy they can torture. They have no idea I just unlocked God Mode. It’s time to break these chains, wreck some nobles, and explore this new fantasy world. And since I died a virgin in my last life… I plan on enjoying everything this new world has to offer. Stay tuned to watch my journey in this high-fantasy world as I get stronger and break this world's rules along the way. What to expect: OP Main Character: From slave to powerhouse at a moderate pace. LitRPG Elements: Stats, Skills, Crafting, and a System that practically looks like cheating, but it's not. Revenge: Bad guys get what they deserve. Brutally. R-18 Content: Yes, there will be smut. But not so much. Just enough to show the realism of this new world. (Detailed scenes, fantasy races, etc). Magic & Crafting: Using modern knowledge + magic to conquer the world.
