Conquest of F.E.A.R.

*Warning: Mature Content Ahead* Blocks of rocks plummeted from the sky, mysteriously transforming into stone statues mere minutes later. These enigmatic monuments, known as the Sacred Statues, held an extraordinary power: they could transmute people's deepest fears into extraordinary abilities. Someone terrified of heights found himself soaring to dizzying altitudes, confronting his darkest dread. Another, afraid of isolation, became invisible, doomed to be ignored by all. A person fearful of public scrutiny began to radiate an intense, attention-grabbing glow. And one who dreaded demons found himself bound to that malevolent entity, his worst nightmare incarnate. In a world where terror becomes power, the boundaries between fear and strength are tested. Those who face their fears are granted extraordinary abilities, but at a steep price. For Jax, his greatest fear of souls becomes his darkest reality. To harness the power of the Sacred Statue, he must first conquer his terror and become the very thing he fears, a trial known as the First Trial. Only upon conquering their phobia could they wield their newfound abilities and earn the esteemed title of "Master." As the Sacred Statues continued to fall from the sky, a new era of transformation began. The weak discovered untapped strength, and the powerful became even more formidable, all thanks to the extraordinary gifts bestowed by the mysterious statues. Will Jax overcome his fear and unlock the secrets of the Sacred Statue, or will he succumb to the very terror that haunts him? Can he find a way to wield his newfound power without losing himself to the darkness? Dive into this gripping tale of self-discovery, transformation, and the true meaning of courage.

SONS OF HERMES : YEAR 2117 Humanity survived the end of the world. What it couldn’t survive—was its salvation. In the aftermath of three cataclysmic wars, Earth is governed not by nations, but by corporations.

Sakarah Mishima, their prodigious intern Together, they patrol the sprawling, code-sensitive districts of Dream City , holding back the tide of rogue AIs and rising rebellion. But when missions start going wrong and classified files vanish mid-upload, the team stumbles onto a conspiracy: their corporate contractors—supposed saviors of civilization—may be hiding the real origins of the war, and the truth about the Bineth Chip that changed them all. Amidst this unraveling order, a new threat emerges: The Prophet—a masked insurgent turning the world against Retributors through terror, propaganda, and a chilling new doctrine. He doesn’t just want to destroy them—he wants to erase what they stand for. And in the shadows of it all, a reawakened Manual named R.O.L.O. begins a journey to change the very foundation of existence. Born of circuits but dreaming of peace, he becomes the unexpected catalyst in a coming storm that will pit machine against creator, soldier against system, reality against dream and truth against control.

Angelic Predator: Am I sane??

He was killed, unjustified.No one's death can be called completely justified but, he died with nothing.Alone. Elarion,now reborn with memories of his past life. His appearance is flawless, with heterochromatic eyes and no visible scars despite past hardships. His demeanor is calm, restrained, and distant. He did not come back to speak. He did not come back to judge. He did not even come back to feel. He simply returned— quiet, distant, watching. Not a ghost. Not a god. Something in between. His body still bears the remnants of divinity, but his soul is unreadable. He doesn’t flinch at cruelty, doesn’t seek revenge, and doesn’t explain the power that hums beneath his skin. He walks alone. He goes through a lot of things...which help him..some changes him..and some cling till last. A girl with a secret. A city on the verge of collapse. And the slow unraveling of the fragile calm he once called peace. They want to know what he is. A cursed angel? A fallen god? A monster who forgot how to hate? But he no longer answers questions. He only acts— when he chooses to. And once he does, nothing survives the judgment. He has proven himself, completed the trial and returned again for a new life. Not for revenge, Not for love.
