"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

The Archon of Rot is dead. The city is celebrating. And something beneath Lion's Gate is already feeding on the dead. The Hero's Triad returns to a city draped in banners and gratitude but the streets are bleeding. Bodies are found torn apart from the inside. The sick fill the infirmaries with wounds no healer can name. And somewhere in the web of Lion's Gate's politics, faith, and commerce, an Archon moves unseen, not with claws, but with threads. Nyra is hunting something that wears every face. Neo is being found by something that knew his name before he did. And Thal carries a truth he has kept buried, one that is about to be used against everything he has tried to protect. The Kruul have a King. He has two of the three. And the third has just been named. Some histories don't stay buried. Some bloodlines don't stay silent. And some secrets, once spoken, cannot be unspoken. The Archon of Rot was a battle. The Archon of Threads is a city.

After the death of his wife, Tywin Lannister swore he would never marry again. The realm had other plans. As tensions rise between House Lannister and House Targaryen, the crown demands unity—and the price is a marriage neither side desires. The chosen groom is Tywin himself. His bride: Visenya Targaryen. The King’s sister. A woman feared in court, unmatched in wit, and untouched by every suitor who dared approach her. This is no romance. It is a political alliance forged to prevent rebellion… and both of them know it. But Visenya is no pawn. And Tywin Lannister does not yield. What begins as a forced union soon becomes something far more dangerous—a silent war of control, pride, and power, where every word is a move and every move has consequences. Because in a realm ruled by lions and dragons… neither of them was ever meant to bow.

"Blessed by the Primal Demon Ashlesh, Faen transforms the toxic gloom of Zaun into a realm of euphoria, using the power of 'Joy' to conquer both his enemies and the hearts of beloved champions like Zeri and Jinx." "A high-octane R-18 adventure where political revolution meets intimate conquest, following Faen as he tears down the Chem-Barons' rule while exploring the limitless potential of his demonically enhanced body." "Discover a darker, sexier side of Runeterra where a transmigrator's curse becomes his greatest weapon, turning battle, pleasure, and governance into a singular path to absolute power." "Faen doesn't just want to save Zaun; he plans to reshape it through violence and delight, building a new order supported by the unwavering devotion of the world's strongest heroines." "With a unique power system that converts intense emotion into physical strength, this novel blends explosive action with explicit romance, offering a fresh, hedonistic take on the League of Legends universe."

« MATURE CONTENT » I was supposed to check my stats. Instead, I checked my sins. One scroll through the system notifications and I realized I’d made the dumbest, hottest, most catastrophic mistake in cultivation history: [Heir Conception Confirmed: All three blessed wives have been Impregnanted.] [Gestation: 3 months. Offspring inherit 50% divine bloodline + maternal elemental affinities.] [Legacy Skill Unlocked: Imperial Seed – Children born at Core Formation minimum. Twins/Triplets chance +70%.] Translation? I bred the maid who poisoned me, the archer who swore she’d never kneel, and the ice queen who hadn’t even been kissed… in one night. Now they’re all carrying little demigods—and Heaven just flagged me as Calamity Incarnate. I wanted a quiet moment to breathe. Heaven handed me a countdown. 3… 2… 1… The sky split like a bad promise. Tribulation clouds boiled over the horizon, rings within rings, and every ring had my name carved into it. Lightning didn’t just flash—it wrote scripture across the firmament, every stroke a sentence: Zhao Tianlong, Calamity Incarnate. And behind me, three heartbeats answered in perfect sync. "Husband, stand back; you should save your energy to fight us in bed..." I glanced at the notifications again, just to suffer. [Heaven’s Will: Surveillance Active. Concealment: Impossible.] [Designation: Catastrophe-Grade Variable. Tribulation: Immediate.] [Bonus Condition Detected: Three Heroines Pregnant. Difficulty Multiplier: x10.] [Note: Heaven disapproves of speedrunning destiny via breeding.] "H-husband, why is the sky thundering..." "The clouds seem to be darkening with concentrated Qi." "It's like it is spreading across the land to take you on, Tianlong." I almost laughed. Almost. My naive wives, they can’t see how the clouds look beautiful, like a beautiful woman. "Hah… I make fountains out of heavenly beauties with my thing," I spat, a chuckle forming while getting disgusted, cute, lovely glares from my heavenly wives. "So if even Heaven itself dares to spread her legs at me, all she’ll do is scream louder," I said, lifting my middle finger towards the sky with a grin that almost ruined my hot husband image in front of my wives. "Tch, perverted bastard... I will just fight." "Ahem, yes, standing beside him might corrupt me." "H-husband... I-I will go fight too... you are embarrassing me..." They stepped beside me—left, right, and one half a pace ahead. Unaware that their sway of hips and jiggles of melons were too distracting. "...." I could only look at three of my beauties, thinking how they are different than last night, but again it appears I might have to corrupt them more. "So, shall we begin the journey of Dual Cultivation?" No NTR, No Yuri

Dawnfall: The Age of Shattered Truth — Summary The Age of Shattered Truth began with a disaster no one could understand. The skies broke. The land trembled. And in a single moment, the world was forever changed. From the chaos, vast floating islands rose into the heavens—ancient, untouched, and impossibly clean, as if they had never belonged to this world. Alongside them came new horrors: unknown beasts with unnatural strength, roaming freely across the broken lands. But they were not alone. From a realm beyond human understanding, mysterious beings descended—some appearing human, yet carrying an overwhelming, otherworldly presence. They brought with them power, knowledge… and secrets no one was meant to uncover. Civilization collapsed. Truth itself became uncertain. In this fractured world, where survival is the only law, a young survivor named Kael struggles to endure. Alone in the wild, he discovers something hidden deep within himself—an unusual ability that connects him to nature in ways no ordinary human can comprehend. As Kael learns to hunt, adapt, and awaken his growing power, he begins to sense that the disaster was no accident. The floating islands… the beasts… the beings from the Unknown Realm… All of it is connected. And at the center of it lies a truth so dangerous, it could either rebuild the world— or shatter it beyond repair.

With an unyielding promise, Moku vowed to wage war against those underestimating Monster Species. In a world of magic and peril, his journey for empowerment and revenge had just begun. Join Moku in this gripping fantasy, battling limitations and prejudice to face his destiny in the Bog forest. {Disclaimer: This novel will be the basis or background story of all the subsequent novels that I will write. English is not my first language and this is the first novel I've written. So if there are any mistakes in writing or language that are difficult to understand, please understand. I will keep trying to be a better writer. And you can see the changes in my writing style from chapter to chapter. ------------------------------------ Hello, my loyal readers! Thank you so much for still being here and accompanying me on this journey until now. TROC started three years ago, and it was the first project I truly dedicated myself to as a serious author. As a new writer back then, I am well aware that there were many flaws in the early chapters, but your unwavering support is what allowed me to learn and grow over time. Finally, we have reached the turning point: The Final Volume — Sunk of Demon War. Just like the previous volumes, I expect this one to reach 200+ chapters, or perhaps even more. My goal is to complete Volume 3 within this year, God willing. A few technical notes: Encyclopedia of Species: Information regarding the Warbeast Species and other Mana Species will not be included in this volume. Instead, I will be compiling them into a dedicated Side Story collection, formatted like a world-building manual. The "Definitive" Edit: Once Volume 3 is concluded, I plan to conduct a massive overhaul and edit starting from Chapter 1 to ensure the entire series meets the quality standards I’ve developed today.

The world is collapsing. The gods are reincarnating. And the only man trying to hold everything together… is a roofer. Shane Albright was just a blue-collar contractor trying to keep his crew sober and his construction business alive. He understood the weight of a bundle of shingles and the cost of a bad step on a steep roof. He did not expect to become the structural support of the universe. Everything changes when Shane receives the Celestial Proxy System. What begins as a strange HUD helping him run job sites quickly evolves into something far larger. As the system grows, Shane discovers the world is being quietly dismantled by Apex Negativa, a hidden architect of entropy feeding on division, addiction, and chaos. The System wasn’t built to make Shane powerful. It was built to make him responsible. But Shane isn’t just a contractor with a cosmic cheat code. He is the Scion of the Triple Anchor—born from the essence of the Norn of the Present, the God of Justice, and the God of Silence. As civilization collapses and ancient gods awaken in mortal bodies, Shane begins rebuilding something stronger than governments—communities. Because fate has already decided how this story ends. Ragnarok must happen. And when the world burns, someone will have to rebuild what comes after. Shane Albright just wants to make sure the roof of the world doesn’t leak. ⸻ Gods fight the war. Shane rebuilds the world afterward.

Aiden was reborn into a cultivation realm, carrying the abilities of his former in-game avatar, a necromancer. All he ever wanted was to adapt, keep his head down, and survive in this ruthless, law-of-the-jungle world. But destiny had other intentions.

[The world as you know it has come to an end. The Multidimensional Gods have decided to include humanity in the war against the Chaos Gods and their army of monsters.

The system isn’t broken. It’s just waiting to be stained." In a world powered by "Pure" Blue Mana, Arthur Fenric was born a glitch. To the Royal Academy, his crimson energy was a disease—a hollow, infectious rot that lacked the harmony of the Great Font. For twenty-six years, the disgraced prince tried to harmonize. He tried to be "pure." He failed. Exiled to the Frost-Bound Barrens with nothing but a rusted blade and a death sentence, Arthur finally stops trying to breathe underwater. Out here, in the sub-zero silence, his "disease" reveals its true name: [SYSTEM MIMICRY]. Arthur doesn't channel mana; he infects it. He doesn't study spells; he steals their blueprints. By Staining the world around him, Arthur realizes that the "holy" resonance of the Kingdom is just data waiting to be overwritten. From the density of ancient cedar to the predatory speed of frost-beasts, everything is a resource. Every "Pure" soul is just a battery. The High Lords think they discarded a prince. They don't realize they unleashed an Architect. The Barrens were his laboratory. The Kingdom will be his masterpiece.

After dying in an accident, Julian thought his story was over. Instead, he wakes up in a medieval fantasy world, ruled by steel, filled with magic, and crawling with monstrous beasts. Reborn as Darion, the bastard son of an emperor, he is thrown into a life of mockery and scorn. As an illegitimate noble, he holds no power, no respect, and no future. Until Awakening Day. In this world, only the children of noble families awaken a Class: an ability that determines their status and role. Some become Dukes for awakening classes that summon mythical beasts. Others rise as Commanders, wielding magic capable of dominating entire battlefields. Darion awakens… nothing. Laughter erupts across the ceremony hall. Declared classless and a disgrace to the imperial bloodline, he is cast off as a mere baron and exiled to a dying territory—barren lands, starving knights, and graves of fallen soldiers who died defending a domain the empire long abandoned. Darion is left with a single, bitter question: What is a classless lord supposed to do with dead knights? [Ding!] [Late Awakening Detected] [YOU HAVE AWAKENED: NECROMANCER] With no gold, no allies, and enemies closing in, he decides to build his kingdom the only way he can… By raising an immortal legion from the battlefield.
