beast master: decay and decay

KingGodEmperror
In a dangerous world where humanity lives behind giant walls to protect themselves from monsters coming from mysterious Rifts, people rely on brave Hunters to gather materials from the wild lands outside. Our main character, Sav, lives in City D and dreams of becoming a Hunter. However, Sav has the Undead Affinity, which lets him control skeletons and zombies. Everyone thinks this power is weak because undead creatures are usually fragile and fall apart easily. People often make fun of him for it. But Sav doesn't give up. He spends his time reading books about magic (called mana) and notices the symbols used look like something he vaguely remembers from a past life – something he calls "coding." He believes he can use these "coding" ideas to make his Undead summons stronger, even if they start small. Putting his theory to the test, Sav finds tiny mouse bones and uses his unique "coding" method to summon a Skeleton Mouse. Even though it's incredibly small and weak, it follows his commands perfectly and doesn't crumble immediately. Feeling hopeful, Sav takes his Skeleton Mouse to the Hunter Association. Despite being laughed at and questioned by others, the man at the desk agrees that Sav technically meets the requirement. Sav successfully registers as an E-Rank Hunter, the lowest possible rank. This small success marks the beginning of his journey to prove that his "weak" affinity can become strong.

The Horlock Chronicles

After a fight gone wrong, Brandon Horlock falls through a portal to another world. Listen in as he tells us how he got here. How he persevered through a life of crime, betrayal, and torture. How he saw everything he dreamed of fall away. Brandon’s spent most of his life in the shadows -- picking pockets, slipping past guards, and dodging the fists of his abusive father. After his mother’s death, the streets of the Danese District became home. His family? Two equally scrappy friends. His mentor? Not quite. More like a boss -- a pawnshop owner with one foot in the criminal underworld. It’s not a good life. But it’s theirs. So when a high-risk job promises enough gold to finally escape the slums, Brandon takes the chance. The target? A luxury train full of the realm’s future rulers. The job? Rough up a noble heir and steal whatever isn’t nailed down. Easy money. Until it all goes sideways. The fists fly. Magic flares. And Brandon ends up on the wrong side of a prodigy mage from the most powerful House in the realm. Worse still, he uncovers a secret that was never meant for someone like him. Because magic? It doesn’t just belong to the elite. Now, on a world not his own, Brandon is out of his depth, low on options, and hunted by people who play a far deadlier game than he’s ever known. But if the streets taught him anything, it’s how to adapt. And he’s not done yet. Expect: A gritty, morally ambiguous fantasy Criminal intrigue and shadowy deals Violence and betrayal A slow-burning journey of transformation and rebellion The prologue is in third person but the next chapters are in first. Why? Because I'm an idiot. I'll eventually do something about it but take this as a warning.

ERROR 001: Mercy not Found

In every apocalypse story Zane ever read, humanity always evolved—unlocking powers just in time to survive. But when the real apocalypse struck, nothing happened. No miracles. No abilities. Just silence, death, and the slow unraveling of civilization. Born into one of the most powerful families on Earth—the second, unwanted son of the President of the United States—Zane should’ve lived a life of prestige. Instead, he was a secret—an embarrassment his father kept hidden. Ignored at home. Bullied at school. Invisible to the world. When the world fell apart, people clung to status and power to survive. Zane was cast into Zone F—the lowest of the low—while his family escaped to the fortified haven of Zone SS+. It was a death sentence. But fate had other plans. A spatial rift opened. A monster emerged. Just as Zane braced for the end, he was pulled through a portal—dragged before one of the most powerful beings in the universe. There, in a realm beyond time and pain, he was broken, rebuilt, and reborn. Trained to kill. Forged into a weapon. Now he’s back—a walking disaster. No longer weak. No longer invisible. And no longer merciful. After a lifetime of being cast aside, why would he save anyone? Why show mercy to those who never gave him a second glance? Can a world that never showed mercy survive a man who has forgotten how to give it? ERROR 001: Mercy Not Found The apocalypse was just the beginning. Zane Walker became the end.
