mystery

Long before the world knew of kingdoms rising and falling, of wars waged for thrones and power, there existed an ancient and untamed land at the far eastern reaches of the known world. This land was called Drakenshard, a rugged expanse of jagged mountains, dense forests, and dark rivers, where dragons once roamed freely, and where the skies were forever painted with the hues of battle and prophecy. The very winds whispered the names of gods and heroes, and the soil was rich with the bloodlines of kings long forgotten. At the heart of this land stood the Skarn Clan, a proud and fierce people who had always believed themselves to be the chosen guardians of Drakenshard. Their roots stretched back to the First Men, a tribe said to have lived in harmony with the gods of nature and war. The Skarns had always held that they were called by the Old Gods to protect not just the land but the mysteries hidden within its deepest caves and towering peaks. But unlike other clans, whose strength lay in their warriors and the sharpness of their swords, the Skarns wielded a power much older and more profound—the power of the runes.

Abandoned by the gods when he needed their help the most, Sola finds himself chosen by a mysterious and feared deity. This entity, despised by all other gods, grants him power.

Akira Kenzaki was never meant to be summoned. Powerless, unchosen, and thrown into a merciless new world where magic is everything—he is a mistake. But death doesn’t let him go. Every time he dies, time rewinds. He remembers everything. The agony. The betrayal. The blood. Again and again. In a world where skills are rarer than miracles and stronger than magic, Akira—who cannot learn a single spell—must claw his way through by mastering the near-impossible: skills powered by Yatsu, a brutal energy that destroys as easily as it empowers. With his only weapon being the cursed ability Reforge, Akira begins a descent into madness, growth, and revelation. He will fight devils, chosen champions, and warlords. He will make unbreakable bonds—and lose them in the most horrific ways. And through it all, he will die. Hundreds of times. This is not a tale of a hero who was born strong. This is the story of a mistake… who chose to become something greater.

Asis returns to the ancestral Sinha Haveily after years of bitter estrangement, seeking peace but finding the echoes of forgotten bloodlines and restless spirits. Haunted by the death of her beloved grandmother and burdened by fractured ties with her own parents, Asis struggles against forces both mortal and monstrous. Unbeknownst to her, ancient powers stir in Bo Liv’s shadowed woods — the dominion of Lycans and high-blood werewolves bound by ruthless traditions and savage decrees. At their helm sits Harald Dyre, the merciless Alpha King whose soul is entwined with Ingolf, a god-wolf spirit of unrelenting fury. As old rivalries ignite bloodshed across the border territories, Harald’s fate becomes tethered to a single human girl: Asis — his destined mate, untouched by the darkness but shadowed by her own growing sorrow. Meanwhile, Asis's new friendship with the effervescent Berit reveals glimmers of light in a darkening world — until Berit's sudden, fated marriage. She pursued by unseen eyes and drawn toward forbidden truths, Asis must confront the darkness coiling around her life. Harald Dyre, bound by blood and prophecy, will stop at nothing to claim her — but to join him could cost Asis her humanity... or awaken a power within her no Lycan king ever anticipated. In a land where destiny is written in blood, and rebellion can only be answered by death, Asis must decide: Will she forge her own fate — or be devoured by the savage love of a monster made king?

In 2185, Warcraft Online was launched—and the world was never the same. What began as a game swiftly evolved into a global revolution. Information, education, media, politics—even human perception itself—were reshaped by its existence. It became more than a cultural phenomenon: it became the foundation of a new era, woven into the fabric of society and taught in schools as both history and future. Then came the Great Collapse—a cataclysm that shattered the old world and opened the gates to a boundless multiversal frontier. From the ruins, humanity rose again, now settled on KOI-5715.01—a world stronger, stranger, and saturated with power. Here, Warcraft Online has become more than a game. It is a second reality, a gateway to infinite realms accessed through the Akashic Library, where Storywalkers wield narrative as a weapon, memory as power, and fate as a game board. By 2225, the line between player and god had all but vanished. Across endless timelines, empires rise and fall in decades, systems awaken, and forgotten forces stir. The veil between memory and reality thins, and humanity begins its plan to dominate all of existence. At Glory Academy, the brightest—and most dangerous—Storywalkers are forged. Among them: are students, rebels, dreamers, and cursed prodigies drawn into a spiralling war of reincarnation, rebellion, and revelation. Some carry memories from lives they’ve never lived. Others die only to return stronger, their echoes rippling across realities. All of them are fated to shape the outcome of worlds. As The One in Red stirs The Eldritch Code, and Taebaek’s forgotten soul awakens within the cracks of destiny, the Paragon Council and their executioners, the Judicator Corps, move to enforce the Laws of Humanity—seven absolute edicts that hold the multiverse together through fear, force, and fatal consequence. The game is no longer about glory. It's about the right to rewrite heaven itself. ____________________________________________ Please share this story with as many people as possible.

Douluo: Reincarnated as Huo Yuhao, with Hanabi-sama as My Wife "Divine King Son-in-law? Not Even a Dog Would Take That!" "Emanator of Elation, Bringing Joy to the World" "Blowing Up Shrek and Framing Tang San" Synopsis: Reincarnated as Huo Yuhao, he awakens memories of his past life during the fusion process. Originally meant to transmigrate into the Honkai: Star Rail universe, he was accidentally noticed by the Aeon of Elation during the process. As a result, he, along with the most beautiful, kind, and stunning lady Huahuo, was sent to the Douluo Continent instead. Huo Yuhao: "Wife, what is Joy?" Most Beautiful Lady Huahuo: "Hahaha... We are Joy!" •••••••• Some terms for people who don't play Honkai Star Rail: Sparkle and Huahuo are names of one person. I used Sparkle only once so there wouldn't be any misunderstanding.
