Dark One is a Progression Fantasy Web novel. It’s set in a world where humans can obtain supernatural powers and grow in these powers to become stronger depending on their aptitude, and their fortunate encounters along their journey as sacred artists.

A sacred artist’s advancement is quantified through a system called Realms — like stages of growth. The dream of every sacred artist is immortality — if they don’t lose their motivation along the way.

Longevity is not uncommon, but immortality is a thing of legend! <<less

In an era marked by division and rampant warfare, the European continent was torn asunder by relentless conflicts. A young man, born into a poverty-stricken... more>> family, joins a mercenary band out of sheer necessity for survival. He seeks neither glory nor power, his only wish being to preserve his life and provide a decent living for his family. However, fate thrusts him into the very heart of historical tumult. As the war spreads, our protagonist witnesses the duality of human nature: the good and the evil. He experiences the joy of victory and the bitterness of defeat. Throughout his battles, he evolves from an inexperienced recruit to a respected veteran. His story is not about becoming a hero, but about maintaining humanity in the face of a brutally indifferent war. Each chapter in the book is centered around the protagonist’s experiences on various battlefields. It narrates how he encounters and is influenced by different characters under the impact of war. From the harsh realities of combat to the intrigue-filled courts, from tests of loyalty to difficult choices, his journey is one of growth, sacrifice, and self-discovery. During this journey, the protagonist faces not only the swords of enemies but also inner turmoil. He grapples with loyalty and betrayal, love and hatred, striving to find his place in a world filled with uncertainties. As the story unfolds, he gradually realizes that the true battle is not just on the battlefield, but within the depths of every individual’s heart. This is not just a novel about war; it is a story about humanity, courage, and hope. The book shows readers that even in the darkest of times, the human spirit can still shine brightly. Through the eyes of the protagonist, we see a world that is both cruel and beautiful, filled with challenges and possibilities. As the story reaches its climax, the protagonist is faced with a decision that could change his life forever. This decision not only has the potential to alter his own fate but could also affect the course of the entire war. Faced with this decision, the protagonist must answer a question: What can an ordinary person do in such a fractured world? <<less

I'm new to this kind of thing, so any advice or criticism would be welcome. (Especially grammar, I can get most words right, but I can't hear where to put ',' or how to separate sentences nicely.)

I have searched the web for any image that could properly portray our protagonist while keeping it free. I have found a very nice picture that was close to what I was going for, but it IS AI-generated and I have no idea how copyright works. I do not own that image, I have simply searched for a free picture describing her features and found this... if you are the owner of this picture, please write me a message and I will take it down as soon as possible. (The Image is temporary and I will commission an artist later for a more accurate depiction~)

Disclaimers:
I'm not a native English speaker so expect to cringe a lot.
This story will mostly focus on fights, Evolutions, bloodlines, etc.
There will be romance and snu-snu, but don't expect it any time soon. (He is a beast after all. And I still don't know how to tackle Yuri stuff...)
Don't expect the protagonist to drag his modern knowledge into this world, it will stay somewhat classic Xianxia.
This is/will be a slow story! If you are looking for constant action, you are in the wrong place. There will be action, but not as much as action-only focused stories.
1st. Edit: This story's Main Romance is Yuri only, other characters will get their romance in the background, but won't be much touched upon.
2nd. Edit: Until chapter 10 it will be very chaotic when it comes to the gender bender, after the 10th chapter it's solid, I didn't know how to do this properly since I'm not quite that skilled to make it more appealing.
(Insert something that I forgot, since whenever you start something there is always something you have forgotten...) <<less

Hello, I am Ray Gremory, and I think... I killed Rias Gremory...
I am the second son of Duke Zeoticus and Duchess Venelana Gremory. I... more>> apparently was born when Rias should have been. I am the only other child my parents have, so that is why I said I killed Rias Gremory. Oh, and my older brother is the Devil King, Sirzechs Lucifer, that I am constantly compared to because I was also born a Super Devil, sigh. How do I know I took Rias's spot? Because when I was 4 years old, I was kicked in the head by one of our family camels and regained a few of my past life's memories. Damn, I forgot most of the story-line of my new world, so nothing is going right in my new life. "Please God help me..." *PAIN*... "Ouch, Damn you God!" <<less

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. ... more>>

Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

If you’re a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don’t want to miss this series!
