Many people expected the world to end back in 2012, and in some ways it did. 2012 was the year the legal protections on Earth ran out, and an intergalactic reality TV crew took residence on Mars to start up the first season of ‘STARDOM: PLANET DIRT!’. With them came the implementation of the STAR System, a game-like reality warping array of technology that allowed those chosen by the producers of the show to wield magical powers, fanciful tech, and dangerously poor emotional control. Nothing boosts ratings like dramatics, of course. ... more>>

Aurora Barker is someone who doesn’t pay much attention to what’s going on with the world of superheroes, supervillains, and capitalistic evil aliens. She’s too focused on trying to drive her daily delivery route, earn enough money to finally afford a doctor who can start her on HRT, and maintain her early friendships with new people in a new city. Of course, this lasts just long enough for her to be recruited into the 12th season of Stardom, with new powers and politics to deal with on top of her need to maintain her secret identity.

Five thousand years ago, mighty beings known as the Dragons roamed the world. They dominated with their strength, intellect, hard scales, and mythical powers. No being dared to raise their gaze in their presence.... more>>

Once, the God tribe attempted to do so. The outcome: complete defeat for the tribe. This result shook the world, establishing the dragons as the kings of all monsters and the Gods of Gods.

Rather than cursing his fate, he thanks for the second chance… a chance for taking revenge against the very humans who killed his family and his lover. With the desire for revenge, the very being of Azeth had been changed, which now had manifested in the form of the Chaos Dragon! <<less

Once upon a time in the quiet suburban town of Meadowbrook, there lived an ordinary high school boy named Ethan. He was known for his unassuming nature, his love for video games, and his penchant for getting lost in the captivating world of virtual adventures. Little did he know that his life was about to take a turn for the extraordinary.... more>>

One sunny morning, while Ethan was walking to school, something strange happened. A blinding flash of light enveloped him, and he felt a strange sensation coursing through his body. It was as if his very existence was being rewritten. When the light dissipated, Ethan found himself standing in the same spot, but everything had changed.

He looked down at his hands, and there it was—a translucent interface hovering before his eyes. It displayed his name, level one, and a set of statistics he couldn't comprehend. It was a system, much like the ones in the video games he loved so dearly.

"What in the world?" Ethan muttered to himself, bewildered.

Just then, a voice echoed in his mind, clear as day. "Welcome, Ethan, to the System of Infinite Possibilities. You have been chosen as the Chosen One. Your destiny is to embark on a journey filled with challenges, monsters, and magic."

Ethan blinked, still trying to come to terms with this surreal turn of events. "Chosen one? Monsters? Magic? Is this some kind of prank?"

But the voice assured him that it was all too real. The system provided Ethan with a series of options. He could choose his starting class: Warrior, Mage, or Rogue. Without hesitation, he selected the class of Mage. After all, he had spent countless hours mastering spells in his favorite games.

Instantly, he felt a surge of power coursing through his veins. He clenched his fist and conjured a small fireball, amazed by his newfound abilities. It was like living inside his favorite RPG, but this time, it was real.

Ethan decided to test his powers and found himself in a nearby forest, where he encountered his first challenge—a fearsome goblin. With a wave of his hand, he cast a powerful fireball that incinerated the creature. His system interface displayed a notification: "Goblin defeated. Experience points gained."

Excitement welled up inside him as he realized the potential of his new life. He could level up, gain new skills, and explore this magical world in ways he had only dreamed of. <<less

Prologue is a philosophical monologue I wrote, story starts from Devin(I). You can skip the prologue and the start from the next chap instead

Author's note: Story contains harsh elements, and the MC has twisted and a sick way of looking at things, he is not like your normal "JUSTIFIED" MC, he is not a goody-two-shoes, an upholder of justice, but instead he is evil and ruthless to the core, and will do anything to gain power. The story has minor romance plot and will be limited to only one girl, there will be a shadow harem, that means a new girl every arc but will not have an intimate or romantic relationship with the MC. It can get dark, and gory, you have been warned.

Please do let me know, if you find any grammatical errors or any better word to fix things up. <<less
