antihero

He lived a life full of regrets, wishing for a second chance, destiny gave it to him, but as the son of a murderer, will he follow in his father's footsteps or forge his own path?

This is my take on DBS and how it should have been, i will change ALOT from the original story..give far more attention to character development, Forms, Power Creeps and Villains/Antagonists, also i will try to keep that DBZ Energy and not retcon everything that was stated

‎"The Abyss Crown: Rise of the Condemned" is an epic dark fantasy adventure set in Aethelgard, a world teetering on the brink of destruction. It's caught between the internal conflicts of four coexisting but often warring kingdoms and the existential threat of the monstrous Demon Lord Malakor and his vast legions. ‎The story begins with Elias, an ordinary 18-year-old from Kyoto, Japan, accidentally summoned to Aethelgard. Intended to be a ritual to bring three prophesied heroes – Borin Stonefist (Dwarf), Elara Whisperwind (Elf), and Sir Gareth Ironclad (Human Knight) – Elias is the unforeseen fourth. Deemed an anomaly and lacking immediate visible power (his immense, unique abilities are dormant), he is cruelly framed for attempting to rape Princess Seraphina of the Human Kingdom of Veridian. Publicly shamed and condemned, Elias is mercilessly teleported to the dreaded Dungeon of Death, a 100-level inescapable prison where none return. ‎This dungeon becomes Elias's crucible. Stripped of everything, he must fight for survival, unlocking his dormant powers, including multiple elemental affinities, forbidden dark magic, and a unique Monster Assimilation ability that grants him the powers of creatures he consumes. He also develops a Perception skill to read weaker foes and the unparalleled Dominant Tamer ability. As he descends through increasingly perilous levels, facing ever-stronger monsters, his body and mind transform, turning him from a weak, terrified boy into an incredibly powerful and cunning warrior. ‎Upon emerging from the Dungeon of Death, Elias is stronger than any conventional hero, but his journey is far from over. He navigates a world fraught with political intrigue, inter-kingdom wars, economic fluctuations, and the pervasive darkness of the Demon Lord's forces. He seeks subtle revenge on those who wronged him, sometimes through calculated strikes, other times by exposing their corruption. Along the way, he acquires allies, including a magically gifted elven slave, and slowly, unexpectedly, captures the hearts of the very princesses of the various kingdoms (including the one who framed him and even the Demon Lord's daughter, Lilith), forming complex romantic relationships. ‎The narrative meticulously details military tactics, their evolution, and the economic and social impacts of continuous warfare and demonic miasma. Elias, now an overpowered force, becomes a pivotal player in the grand war against the Demon Lord, forging unlikely truces, facing brutal casualties, and ultimately striving for freedom and justice in a world consumed by echoes of its past. His rise from the abyss will challenge the very foundations of Aethelgard. ‎Themes: Betrayal and Revenge,Dark Fantasy Survival,Dungeon Evolution,Magic & Military Strategy,Sex, War, Politics, and Power,Slow-burn Romance, Realism, and Emotional Growth ‎ ‎ ‎Target Audience: 13+ mature readers who enjoy Game of Thrones-style realism, Attack on Titan intensity, Goblin Slayer brutality, and Shield Hero/Nanatsu no Taizai themes of betrayal and rising from nothing. ‎

My Hero's Journey didn't kick off with a dream of justice, but with a pair of thighs. Twenty-meter-tall ones, belonging to the hero Mt. Lady, no less. Everyone knew me as Izuku Midoriya. The kid with a useless Quirk, 'Trainer'—only good for teaching poodles tricks. In a world of explosions and superhuman strength, I was a punchline. A Deku. But punchlines don't get into U.A., and they certainly don't land internships with giant goddesses. To hit my target, I needed a miracle. My name is Izuku Midoriya, and they say to be a hero you need a big heart. Girls with big chests have big hearts, so I'm definitely on the right path." [Author's Note] What you'll find: Harem.

I’m Azula Uchiha, five-year-old 'princess' of the most dramatic clan in Konoha, stuck in a world that’s basically 'Naruto'.

At the top of it all sits the Empire, ruling with an iron fist and a miracle drug called Psychalite. It turns ordinary people into living weapons, mages, killers, gods in human skin.

Note: This book also involves ANOTHER WORLDS like one piece. Ken transmigrated into the world of Naruto and took the place of Nawaki, Tsunade’s younger brother who was originally fated to die during the war. However, he gained a strange "Lord God System" that allowed him to designate others as his "Reincarnators"—he could assign them missions, essentially turning them into his workers, earning him points in the process! [Mission Objective: Act out an ecchi scenario with your own brother.] [Mission Reward: Wood Release Kekkei Genkai.] [Mission Failure: Erasure.] Tsunade, who had been forcibly turned into a Reincarnator, stared at the system prompt with a deeply conflicted expression. After a long silence, she picked up the phone. “…Little brother, come over here for a moment.” “Hm? What is it, sis?” “…Forget it. I’ll come to you instead…” *book cover not owned Note: Mc is an edgy(perhaps?)sis con. Get out if you are weak hearted. *This is a translation ------ Every 300 Powerstones - Bonus Chapter

Now, as ancient factions hunt him and a prophecy unfolds, Ken must master his godlike abilities before something apocalyptic emerge from the depths of the underworld. The Yakuza’s son will learn: some truths are deadlier than bullets.
