I used to believe heroes were symbols of hope. People smiled when they saw them. Children dreamed of becoming them. The world called them saviors. I know better. At seventeen, I attend Duskfall Academy—the most prestigious hero school in the country. I have friends, good grades, and a future that should be bright. To everyone around me, I'm just another student trying to become a hero. It's a lie. Because every smile I wear hides a single truth: I want revenge. And I'm not the only one. Somewhere in the shadows, a villain known only as Nyxshade wages her own war against the heroes. She moves like a ghost, leaving bodies and questions in her wake, tearing apart the foundations of the very society that worships heroes. The world fears her. I don't. Because every time her name appears on the news, every time another hero falls, I can't help but wonder if she's chasing the same answer I am. The truth buried beneath uniforms, medals, and smiling faces. The truth that the heroes are so desperate to keep hidden. As my days at Duskfall Academy continue, the line between hero and villain begins to blur. Friendships are tested, secrets emerge, and the shadows around me grow darker with every passing day. The heroes call Nyxshade a monster. The villains call her a savior. As for me? I don't know what she is. I only know that our paths are leading toward the same destination. And by the time we reach it… this world of heroes may no longer exist.

Some debts do not disappear with death. When someone dies with something unresolved, they do not pass on. They remain. They decay. They become an entity born from the weight of what was left unfinished. Broken promises, hidden guilt, words never spoken… everything takes shape. Yüta never believed in it until the night he saw one of them staring back at him. Dragged into a secret network of hunters who defeat these entities in order to release them, he soon discovers that defeating them is not always the hardest part. Some want to be heard. Others seek revenge. And some believe humanity does not deserve to continue existing. In a world where every death leaves a crack, the question is not how to fight… but who has the right to decide what deserves to rest.

The story of a child who runs away from home and sees the real world, with adventures leading the child to create the world of his dreams.

It is the story of a brave Agniveer—bound by duty, defined by valor, and torn between love and obligation. Arjun was a man who had pledged his life to the nation even before he wore the uniform. Yet, his heart belonged to Kavya,the woman who feared losing him to the very uniform he dreamed of. She never wanted him to join the armed forces, but circumstances unyielding and unforgiving left him with no choice. Becoming an Agniveer was not just his decision; it was his destiny. But fate, as always, had other plans. Before he could build a life with Kavya, he was forced into a marriage with Shreya, a union neither of them desired, for both were already in love with someone else. What began as a reluctant compromise soon spiraled into a nightmare when Shreya was found murdered… alongside the man she loved. And Arjun;innocent, unaware, and absentwas framed for their deaths. On a brief leave during a festival, he returned home hoping for solace, only to be shackled in accusations he could neither comprehend nor escape. The nation he had sworn to protect could not protect him. Branded a criminal, he was thrown into prison, his honor shattered, his spirit broken. Defeated by life, Arjun stood at the edge of despair… until he met Madhav Kaka. A man of quiet wisdom, Madhav Kaka rekindled the dying flame within him. He did not just give Arjun hope,he gave him direction. With renewed strength, Arjun stepped out on bail, determined to fight not just the world, but the darkness within himself. Rising from the depths of depression and disgrace, he began rebuilding his life piece by fragile piece. As a freelancer, he struggled to survive, but more importantly, he struggled to believe again. And then… he returned to Kavya. Against all odds, against all pain, he managed to win back her heart,not as the man he once was, but as the man he had become through fire and loss. Yet, destiny had one final twist in store. A forgotten chapter of his past,his childhood love re-entered his life, stirring emotions he thought were long buried. Torn between past and present, love and truth, Arjun found himself in a battle far more intense than any he had faced before. But this time, he chose differently. He chose truth over illusion. He chose dignity over desire. He chose self-respect over everything else. In the end, Arjun not only proved his innocence and reclaimed his lost honor, but also rediscovered himself the man he was meant to be. Not every victory is about love. Some victories are about standing tall… even after the world has tried to break you. And Arjun,once a broken soldier rose again, not just as a survivor, but as a symbol of resilience.

In the turbulent era of Europa from 1914 to 1922, a devastating world war ignites following the assassination of Great Duke Francis, heir to the Middle Nations of Germano-Hungry—loyal allies of the formidable Great Empire. This spark escalates into a brutal clash, with the Great Empire locked in combat against a coalition of powers: the steadfast Republic of France, the shadowy Transnatia (formerly Romania), the expansive Great United Front of Russia, and the naval-dominant Island Nation of Commonwealth (Britain), as additional nations are pulled into the conflict across the years. "Trenchbound" chronicles the war through shifting perspectives of soldiers on the battlefield, each chapter capturing a unique viewpoint at critical junctures. From the desperate struggles of everyday infantrymen navigating treacherous trenches and mechanized assaults—featuring colossal steam-driven tanks and armored contraptions—to the elite magic divisions, where mages command ethereal flying machines (distinct from conventional aircraft) to soar above the fray. These sorcerers enchant bullets with devastating spells, causing them to explode on impact or unerringly track their targets, turning the odds lethally against ordinary troops and amplifying the chaos of combat. Through these personal narratives, the novel delves into the grim realities of a war where arcane enhancements merge with industrial might, exposing the fragility of life, the bonds of camaraderie, and the shattering consequences of enchanted warfare that reshapes Europa's destiny. This alternate historical epic blends authentic period tensions with limited magical intrigue, painting a vivid portrait of survival amid enchanted peril.

Born a prince of Manderana, he was never meant to live. On the night of his birth, the stars vanished, the moon disappeared, and the artifact of selection shattered—declaring his affinity as dark magic, a path unfit for a king. Spared from execution only by mercy, he was sentenced to exile. At the age of four, the unwanted prince was sent to the North—a land of monsters, demons, and endless war—armed with nothing but dangerous survival techniques and a monthly allowance that would end when he turned fifteen. No blessings. No hidden talents. No destiny written in his favor. Only observation, adaptation, and the will to live. This is not the story of a chosen hero. It is the story of a child who learned how to survive— and what that survival would eventually cost the world.

Muhan Lockhart died at the end of the world and came back to the beginning of it. He carries twenty-three years of a life that hasn't happened yet in a body that hasn't earned them — the memories, the failures, the faces of everyone he couldn't save. He knows what's coming. He knows the Trauma Spell will select them. He knows which people will find each other in the Dead Zone and what it will cost. What he doesn't know is whether knowing changes anything. NOT YET is the story of a man running a second chance like a war — against gods who have opinions about who gets to love who, against a world that keeps trying to end before he's finished with it, and against the specific quiet devastation of a girl with midnight dark hair who keeps forgetting she already knows him. He remembers everything. He's not letting go of any of it.
