The Exiled Prince Who Raised the Apocalypse

Ben_Lies
He took seventy-two pills to end his misery. Instead, he woke up in a fantasy world as a prince—and became father to the very monsters destined to destroy humanity. Kain is twenty-two, homeless, and utterly broken. Abandoned by his parents, fired from his job, hunted by debt collectors—he swallows every pill he can find and waits for death. But death has other plans. He wakes as Prince Aldric, fifth heir of the Astravian Empire. The pills should kill him any minute. So he runs—far from royal politics—to an abandoned village on the empire's forgotten frontier. There, he finds orphaned children. Abandoned like him. Unwanted like him. He takes them in. Feeds them. Loves them. Becomes the father he never had. He doesn't know what they truly are. Each child is an apocalypse-born—a being destined to awaken and destroy humanity. The prophecy is written. The end is coming. And Kain, who blames his own miserable life on the father who abandoned him, refuses to abandon his children. He will protect them. Love them. Fight for them. Even if loving them means watching the world burn. Even if protecting them makes him the father of monsters. Even if his children will one day kill everyone. --- Because Kain knows one truth that prophets and heroes have forgotten: Monsters aren't born. They're made by a world that refused to love them. And this time, the world will pay for every child it threw away.

Boundless: Tower of Evolution

The world didn’t end in fire or chaos, it changed quietly. Zane Mensah, an observant and withdrawn university student, is among the few who notice the subtle signs that something is wrong. The sky stands unnaturally still, animals begin to behave in disturbing ways, and an invisible pressure seems to settle over the world. While others dismiss it, Zane’s instincts tell him a pattern is forming, one he doesn’t yet understand. Then everything breaks. As animals across the world begin to mutate and humanity collapses into chaos, cities fall and survival becomes the only rule. Nations shrink into isolated safe zones, resources grow scarce, and fear replaces order. With no knowledge of cultivation or power, humanity struggles against a rapidly evolving threat. Just when hope begins to fade, mysterious alien beings known as the Astreans appear. They construct towering structures, gateways to a brutal trial system known as the Tower of Evolution. Promising strength and survival, they offer humanity a chance to fight back… but at a cost. Only those under the age of twenty can enter. Inside the tower, participants are tested, broken, and forced to evolve. Power comes through absorbing essence left behind by the dead, elemental forces and bloodline remnants that can either elevate or erase one’s existence. Survival is no longer just about strength, but adaptation, instinct, and the will to surpass others. Zane enters the tower not as a hero, but as a survivor. Driven first by the need to live, and later by the desire to control his own fate, he begins a journey through a world where only the strongest rise, and where even allies can become enemies. Because in the end, only one truth remains: To evolve… or be left behind.
