antihero

When the world was forcibly logged into EON ARENA, everyone believed it was a fair system. Classes. Levels. Rankings. Survive, grow stronger, and climb the leaderboard. Aaron Cole was given none of that. No weapons. No skills. No combat stats. His class was called Observer, a role so useless that most players assumed he was nothing more than an NPC. What they didn’t know was that Aaron could see what no one else could. Behind every skill, every monster, every so called “random” event, there was a hidden logic layer. Damage formulas. Aggro rules. Spawn conditions. Failure thresholds. While others fought the system, Aaron read it. While the world accused him of cheating, the system itself began issuing warnings. Because Aaron wasn’t breaking the rules. He was operating in a layer the system was never meant to expose. And now, the system has noticed him.

The truth doesn’t set you free. It gets you killed. Fifteen-year-old Veles remembers the sound of bullets better than the faces of his parents. A refugee from Ukraine living in the US, he learned early that the world doesn’t care about survivors. Especially not in the era of the Gates, where Demons don’t just invade – they negotiate, and entire nations have sold their souls to the abyss to survive. Veles thought he had hit rock bottom when he touched an ancient Slavic totem in a ruined village, cursing him with a System that refused to initialize. Instead of power, it gave him a Flaw: Soul’s Echo. Unlike others who can hide their thoughts, Veles is cursed to speak the truth – whether he wants to or not. If he sees a weakness, he points it out. If he smells a lie, he calls it out. He cannot bite his tongue, he cannot feign respect, and he cannot stay silent. In a world built on diplomatic lies and military hierarchy, his unfiltered honesty is a suicide note. It gets him kicked out of foster care and thrown straight into the conscription line for the Mortal Legion – the cannon fodder of the apocalypse. He has six months to prepare for a war he cannot win. He trains, he fights, and he alienates everyone around him with his jagged tongue. And just as the odds predicted... he dies. Betrayed by a commander whose incompetence Veles couldn't help but expose. But death was the only requirement he hadn't met yet. [System Initialized.] [Welcome, Gravekeeper.] Resurrected on a battlefield silent except for the groans of the dying, Veles finally unlocks his power. He can harvest the abilities of the fallen, but the price is steep. To gain a fraction of their power, he must fulfill their dying wish. To inherit their full strength, he must accept their Flaw and add it to his own. Now, Veles must rise from the mud to hunt the demons and the traitors alike. He will become strong, not by being a hero, but by becoming a living graveyard of other people’s regrets – and he won’t be able to keep quiet about it.

Radeon. A cosmic emperor who devoured his own universe to cage an unknown blight, and now woke in the weak flesh of a nobody scribe. Will he live out a carefree life in this sect, with beautiful junior sisters on his arms? Of course not. In this anomalistic, backward, dissonant Samsara realm, Radeon had been given a chance.

Will he finally learn the blight’s true nature? Will he be able to surpass his former self? “Don’t just sit there.

[I am your land survival system, you are the new owner of this snakezoid body] [Obey me, and I shall teach you the secrets of survival with the aid of body upgrades] "What the... are you on shrooms?" ... The world that William reincarnated to, was weird. It wasn't necessarily littered with 'merlins' who could taunt actual dragons with their powers, but those who did have powers, could not be underestimated either. Once he reincarnated in this world full of snakes and lizards, William had expected to deal with a couple of fireballs at best, but no, it was dangerous to walk around without getting his head blown up. There were plenty of magicians who wielded intelligence-based powers, for example, which to some extent made them invincible too! Those weren't even the most powerful magicians, no! People were so attuned to the environment around them, along with their own bodies, that plenty of powers originated from such sources! Follow William's journey as he skims through the system's sarcasm, to grasp his rightful rise to power. Follow his journey on shifting a whole country's politics to his will, to achieve some ulterior motives, regarding his ascension to another realm!

On June 29, 2125, the apocalypse occurred on the very day of the launch of an artificial intelligence satellite launched by a world-class company called Pandora Tech. The purpose of this AI-based satellite was to control the world's automated electronic systems, including all internet networks, services, and free Wi-Fi. However, an hour after launch, the satellite returned to Earth and transformed everything—from machines, plants, animals, and humans—into half-zombie, half-robot monsters. A 17-year-old boy who experienced this event was rescued by a system and returned to the morning before the apocalypse. Having failed to save those closest to him, the system finally unlocked and gave him the power to become a werewolf, absorbing souls to transform them into Shadow Wolves. Afterward, he began to survive in the post-apocalyptic world alone, with only half his humanity and soul remaining, having failed to carry out a mission he knew nothing about. This is a war of survival between mysticism and magic against technology. Will he save the world or destroy it?
