The Curse of Asmodeus

DaoistkVafkU
In Kensington, in the spring of 1995, Professor Simon Brice is summoned to a mansion where the past seems to breathe within the walls. The Heinforth family preserves more than tradition — they preserve a secret that defies reason. Their daughter, Brenda, has been writing indecipherable symbols since childhood, as though guided by a memory older than her own life. Now isolated, she is no longer merely a disturbed young woman. There is a presence within her. Called by a name he does not remember ever bearing, Brice soon realizes he was chosen. Not by the family. But by whatever inhabits Brenda. Before him, others had tried to understand. Among them, a Vatican priest, fascinated not by the girl’s salvation, but by the mystery she carried. Obsessed with the symbols, he believed himself close to uncovering a forbidden truth. Days later, he was found dead — hanged, mutilated, and surrounded by the very same inscriptions. One word remained unmistakable: Judas. Within the room where logic dissolves, voices emerge from a time that should not exist. Smoke, screams, fire — fragments of a history that refuses to remain buried. Visions of a Paris in revolution, of mirrored brides, of inevitable executions. And an impossible artifact: a golden chalice shaped like a human skull. Caught between science and superstition, Brice struggles to resist. But the entity recognizes him. And demands something that belongs to it. As memories — or perhaps entire lives — begin to awaken, it becomes clear that a pact was broken. And that the punishment was never forgotten. Now, only one question remains: what, exactly, did Brice bring with him… and how long has it been waiting to be reclaimed?

I Became Final Boss

Fifteen years ago, John transmigrated to Blue Star—a world identical to Earth in every way, except for its name. To everyone else, John was just an average man living a quiet life. But every time John slept, he entered a game world known as the Dao World that felt more real than reality itself. The dream world was a vast cultivation landscape governed by ancient Taoist laws, and John wasn't anybody; he has ability of infinite resurrection in dream, whenever he died, he would wake up in the real world, and when he slept next time, he would start the dream where he had left off With no competitors and the ability to "respawn" after every dream-death, John spent fifteen years relentlessly advancing. He broke through the shackles of mortality, transcended the laws of physics, and finally achieved the legendary Godless Realm. Known across the heavens as the Sage Emperor, he stood at the absolute peak of existence. Then, the "Game" officially launched and became Reality. The sky over Blue Star shattered. A cold, mechanical voice echoed in the minds of billions: [System Initialised: The Great Migration has begun.] [Target World: The Primordial Realm.] [Quest: Slay the Tyrant!] [Description: The Sage Emperor has achieved Supreme Authority. His reign is tyrannical and must be ended. All citizens of Blue Star are drafted as ‘Heroes’ to liberate the world.] John froze. Billions were chosen. His family. His friends. Every human on Blue Star. All granted power. All promised rewards. All sent to kill him. To survive, John makes the only choice he can— He accepts the quest. To kill himself. But as the System tightens its grip and the line between dream and reality collapses, one truth becomes clear: The world thinks it’s hunting a monster. But they have no idea… They’ve awakened something far worse.
