Snap: The Overpowered Outcast

✰ Synopsis ✰ The forty-sixth floor stank of wet fur and something metallic. Rhea Kinn's back pressed against cold stone. Her husband's shoulder warm against hers. They'd come for the crystal. They found a baby instead. Eyes too dark. Skin too warm. A child tucked in goblin filth, wrapped in nothing but a scrap of linen and the silence of a dungeon floor that should have swallowed him whole. Elian wanted to leave it. The guild protocol. The practical thing. Rhea lifted it anyway. One arm cradling the infant, the other grabbing the bounty. Two decisions made in the space between heartbeats. They named him Luzian. He grew. He stared at things that weren't there. He chewed on a wooden spoon and watched the afternoon light like it owed him something. The scan stone came out white. No affinity. No element. Just light that refused to shift, refused to name him anything. Elian pulled the obsidian disc from his pocket. The thing the church warned against. The thing that reads what you are, not what you say you are. The disc glowed. The disc cracked. And the baby smiled. ✰ Disclaimer ✰ This is not a story about a chosen one. No prophecy. No ancient bloodline. No destiny written in the stars. This is about a baby found in the dark. A father who pretends not to see. A mother who holds on too tight. A child who watches light move through dust motes like he's waiting for something to end. The prose is short where it hurts. Long where it burns. No one speaks in complete sentences. No one explains what the broken rune means. If you're looking for a system menu or a stat screen, put the book down. The magic here doesn't quantify. It cracks obsidian discs and leaves a hum beneath the skin. It looks like a baby's smile and feels like the fine hairs on the back of your neck standing up for no reason. The parents don't get to be heroes. They get to be warm. They get to be silent. They get to carry the weight of a child who shouldn't exist and pretend he's just a child. He's not. But they'll hold him anyway. That's the whole story. That's the only story.

The villainous prince Rewrites fate

In the original story, Alex was never meant to matter. He was a stepping stone—a disposable villain designed to elevate the protagonist. His purpose was simple: appear powerful, challenge the hero, lose spectacularly, and make the world praise someone else. His defeat was never a possibility. It was a certainty. But everything changes when Alex becomes aware of the truth. He remembers the story. He remembers his fate. And most importantly… he understands his role. A role he refuses to play. Instead of rebelling blindly, Alex does something far more dangerous: He steps off the path… without alerting the story. Rather than confronting the protagonist, he targets the structure behind him—the heroines, the events, the timing, the emotional bonds that were carefully written to make the hero shine. Because if the foundation collapses… the hero cannot rise. At the center of Alex’s power is his identity as a Progenitor Vampire. In a world where vampires reproduce slowly through birth, Alex stands above them all. He alone possesses the ability to create vampires through his bite, and those he elevates—his generals—inherit that same privilege. Every vampire born from his lineage is bound by absolute loyalty from birth. This is not just power. It is inevitability. Alex begins his quiet war by intercepting the heroines before they ever meet the protagonist. These women were never meant for him—they were written to love the hero, support his growth, and become symbols of his success. To Alex, they are something else entirely: Assets. Weapons. Future pillars of his empire. Through manipulation, emotional pressure, and overwhelming presence, he reshapes them: Curses placed to delay their growth are broken early. Abilities evolve beyond what the story allowed. **Their loyalties shift before the protagonist ever meets them.

The void's promise

They threw him into the dark to feed a slumbering god. They didn't know the god was starving—and that the boy was hungrier. For ten thousand years, the Blood Lotus Sect has reigned supreme, built on a foundation of ruthless cultivation and a dark secret: they sacrifice their weakest newborns to the Abyssal Pit to appease an ancient horror. But when a nameless, hollow boy is tossed into the dark, he doesn't scream. He doesn't break. With a soul as empty as the void itself, he catches the eye of the dying god below. Instead of consuming him, the ancient entity makes him its vessel. Now, sharing his mind with a cynical, world-ending parasite, the boy climbs out of the abyss wearing the stolen skin and identity of a murdered Outer Court disciple named Dver. To the arrogant young masters and paranoid elders of the sect, Dver is just another piece of trash. A traumatized survivor clinging to the bottom of the hierarchy. They are dead wrong. He is an apex predator wearing a sheep’s skin, and his cultivation requires him to eat theirs. As Dver systematically infiltrates the sect, turning their deadly politics into his own personal hunting ground, he catches the eye of Lyra—the Sect’s flawless, untouchable Saintess. She believes she can purify the broken boy. She thinks she can save him. But Dver doesn't want salvation. He wants to slowly, deliciously corrupt her until she is just as monstrous as he is. A grand sacrifice is approaching. The elders are preparing to feast on the heavens. But they have no idea that the abyss is already walking among them, smiling, and waiting for the perfect moment to swallow them whole.

I am now the Leader of a Vampire-Zombie Country!

A Filipino high student from Leyte, named Basilio Valencia died in a landslide but was reincarnated into another world, which is a partial modern and fantasy world with some modern technology. But thanks to an ability called Tech, he still has his phone, journal, and laptop, as well as some pens and journaling equipment. Thus, he can still listen to his favorite songs and watch his favorite shows, anime, and movies from his previous life through his gadgets. Seeing his creature comforts being reincarnated with him, Basilio thought that he would recontinue his partially changed way of life, but his luck ran out when he almost died in a hostile army known as the Vamzom (Vampire-Zombie) Army. That army, which a Demon Sorcerer cursed and transformed to be blood-thirsty creatures that are more like a hybrid of both vampires and zombies, was killing humans and other races that had blood with combat helicopters, pistols, and swords for their blood. But then, the army regained their humanity partially when they realized what they had done to him and the other humans and races. So, they regretted their actions and worked hard to save him. But, while Basilio was in a coma, their leader, Ruslan Makesa, driven by guilt, took his own life by stabbing himself with his Blood Sword, before placing his powers as a Vamzom in a box; he intended to pass that and his leadership to the Basilio once he survive and wake up from his coma. And so, after Basilio had survived and woken up from his 2-month-long coma, the army apologized to Basilio and asked him to lead them, promising to be good to all races. Basilio was shocked but he forgave them, taking Ruslan's leadership with his own morals and ideals. So, after that, Basilio built a country with the Vamzom race that is civilized and friendly with his cultural traits and morals as a Filipino in his previous life, as well as modeling the new nation, known as the Ruslav Nation, after the Philippine republic. But Basilio discovered that there is a race called Otherworlders, which he was a part of, and took this as an opportunity to make alliances with them. But will Basilio adapt to this new life in a strange world? Warning: The photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!
