tribulations and adversities. The path to the Dao is complex and dangerous, countless die while trying to ascend to the Heavens, but those few who... more>> persist on this path are destined for greatness.

Vincent had a weird nightmare.... more>>

Humanity was destroyed.
The city he called home burned to the ground, his home blew up, and his loved ones died one by one before his eyes as he watched in crippling desperation, knowing one day it would be his turn.
When the nightmare truly ended, he opened his eyes to the bottom of the sea and a world that he knew nothing about.
—
Even though the MC is literally chased by the time, there will be many slices of life, tons of world-building, and interaction with many different characters. The burn will slow as our main character, Vincent, searches for his family and friends in a System world that is brimming with monsters wanting to take a sweet bite from his flesh and time.
—
This book’s main goal is to build a mysterious System world where to require anything–stats, skills, food, or even a little bit of underwear— you need to sacrifice something dear to you, your own limited lifespan. Also, I want to write interesting characters and build a culture built upon this ‘Time is all’ mechanic.
—
There will be stats but also the cultivation mechanics.
The system actively manipulates its inhabitants instead of only giving out free power and being done with it.
Our protagonist, Vincent, is a young man in his early twenties, also an ex-college-freshman with many regrets and errors, but he understands those facts too late.

***I am planning to release daily until it is chapter ten, then two times a week schedule (Monday-Friday)

*** The first ten chapters are short, but later chapters will be much longer. (2700~ words)

Wang Xue was known as the Bloody Monarch in his previous life. Known to slaughter anyone he didn't like and capable of killing an innocent child on a whim.... more>>

He was disconnected from everyone, no lover nor friend; he was alone throughout his life.

When he died in the Cataclysm that he prepared to trap the people that wanted to kill him, no one mourned his death.

With him setting off the Cataclysm, the Wheel of Reincarnation was broken, and no one should've been able to get another chance in life.

But his soul found its way to the body of the deceased young man, called Wang Jia.

This is the tale of the one who had fallen from above and started anew in life. Will he regain his name as the Bloodbath Monarch, or will he become a hero for the people?

Well, one thing is for sure is that Wang Xue follows his own path.

**
P.S this novel is not for those who does not like killing. This is a story of a guy who is kind of insane and follows his own thought process in dealing with things. I think I was in a phase when I wrote the concept for this.

Note: There is overarching plot, but this is just a feel good story I wrote when I was young and just wanted to get back to simple things. Tell me if you liked it. <<less

A System Apocalypse changes the Earth.... more>>

A Threat of extermination looms over Humanity.

A Hero returns from killing a Demon Lord.

“Whoever said being a Returnee Hero is easy was full of shit!”

Leonidas Paendrag spent five years in another world to defeat the Demon Lord and his literal armies of Hell, only for the final battle to send him back to Earth unexpectedly. Denied the rest he desperately wanted, Leonidas is instead thrust into a world of emerging fantasy races, warring human factions, and a dysfunctional family more intent on killing each other than the monsters roaming the planet.

With royal elven politics, dungeon raids, area bosses, human doomsday cults, rogue US military holdouts, and hostile fantasy races mixing together into a nightmare cocktail of bullshit; Leonidas must use all his accrued knowledge, skill, and experience as the Hero to cultivate, grow stronger, and forge his own place in a post-System Incursion Earth.

And in the process, figure out why the System keeps calling him a ‘Cataclysm’ and painting a target on his back.
