As the Emperor Falls

Qunaon
In a world forged by war and power, there were children who were never given the chance to choose their path in life. One of them… survived. When a refugee camp was massacred without a trace, White stood amidst the ruins. not as the last victim, but as someone who decided to remember it all. He didn't cry. He didn't ask for help. He made a vow. That the world that destroyed them… would be repaid. Fifteen years later, the world knew him by a new name. He grew up as a disciple of a legend, walking among nobles, academies, and wielding powers no one his age should possess. Behind it all, he moved in the shadows. saving. destroying. changing. Without a name. Without recognition. He became a hero… to those the world never saw. Yet every step he took, every life he saved, slowly brought him closer to something far darker. Because vengeance never stops at one point. And the truth… isn't always as he remembers. When all promises finally converge, he must choose. remain the unrecognized savior… or become something the world will remember forever. Even if it means… becoming the enemy of everything.

Reincarnated as the Villainess — So I’ll Become the Most Iconic One

I died in Tokyo. Stupid way to go—literally hit by a delivery truck while thinking about instant ramen. Then I woke up in Isabel Nyx Raven's body. The villainess. The one the entire kingdom despises. The one who dies screaming in every single game route. Here's the thing though: if I'm DOOMED anyway, I might as well be LEGENDARY. So I learned dark magic from a 70-year-old grimoire keeper who looks like death personified. I corrupted the Crown Princess into practicing forbidden curses. I publicly humiliated Prince Aldric in front of the entire court and made it CLEAR that I'm not the desperate girl who needs his approval—I'm the one he should be terrified of. I built a cult of students who will commit crimes just to impress me. I made a deal with a sarcastic Shadowviper familiar. I caught the attention of a dangerously charming foreign prince who practices dark magic openly and looks at me like he understands exactly what I am. And I did it all while walking a razor's edge between genius and catastrophe—one misstep away from heresy charges, underworld entanglement, and the Crown declaring war on my house. The church is investigating me. Rival kingdoms are circling. My fiancé hates me. The underworld thinks I'm their newest weapon. And Prince Riku? He's either going to be my greatest ally or my most beautiful disaster. But here's what they don't understand: I'm not playing to survive. I'm playing to be UNFORGETTABLE. Even if it kills me, I'm going to make sure the world never forgets the name Isabel Nyx Raven. Watch me burn it all down. (("I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com))
