shadows of the crown

Across the vast convolution of worlds, divine beings rule as absolute sovereigns—each god assigned dominion over a singular realm. Skirmishes are inevitable, whether for power, amusement, or sheer pettiness. One such battle, between Nexus, the God of Trickery, and an aging, senile deity, resulted in an anomaly… A soul misplaced. Elliot, an ordinary man, was never meant for Ul’Tra-el. But fate, or perhaps a cosmic prank, had other plans. Unlike other worlds, Ul’Tra-el is an aberration—one that developed a voice. A voice that diverged from the natural order. A voice that changed everything. Its foundation cracked, leaking dimensions into one another. Rifts tore open like festering wounds, vomiting forth unspeakable horrors—monsters not meant to exist. But the world did not sit idly by. In response—perhaps an act of self-preservation—the world gifted its inhabitants power. Talents awakened, granting people extraordinary abilities. And for every rift sealed, the Voice of Ul rewarded them generously. Survival was simple: fight, grow stronger, and close the rifts… or die trying. In this ruthless, blood-soaked reality, Northern—a white-haired boy burdened by his past life—was reincarnated. But unlike the chosen heroes, he awakened as a talentless nobody. No power. No strength. No future. And when death loomed over him—when despair clawed at his soul and the cold grip of the failure threatened to take him— A Voice responded: [System Notice] [Your Soul cannot take a form.] [Searching for a Unique Pattern Ability…] [Searching…] [Search Found.] [A Unique System Ability has been detected.] [You Can Copy And Evolve Talents] ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.

Adelaine Hammond unexpectedly transmigrated into her own forgotten and unfinished novel. She had a new identity, a new world, and a new existence—she became Remillia Lockhart, a character she never knew existed. In simple terms, she's an extra, a minor character in her own story. The moment she accepts that this is now her reality, she set out two plans: survive and wait for the novel to end; or, survive, become the richest person alive, and live comfortably. She throws herself into everything necessary to stay alive. But then, strange things start happening—why is she developing love interests? The novel she once wrote is changing, becoming more bizarre and unpredictable. Monsters grow stronger, new enemies appear, and a series of events unfold that she never wrote. To her surprise, she’s even gaining abilities beyond the original protagonist’s. "Damn it. Should I just stay and enjoy the life I'm having or escape this world and go back to my plain, old, boring life?" I sighed as I stared at the hordes of monsters charging straight to me.

She was an omega everyone could bully—a wolf without a wolf. In her pack, Penelope lived a life worse than a servant, clinging to the naive hope that some chivalrous savior would descend from the heavens. What she never realized was that her true protector had been beside her all along. At her debut ball, fate dealt her a cruel joke: her destined Mate turned out to be the same man idolized by millions—a man whose touch promised ruin. Giddy with euphoria, she raced toward what she believed was her fairytale ending, only to plummet into an abyss of betrayal. When courage finally spurred her to act, it cost her everything—even her memories. Years later, a man claiming to be her Mate reentered her life, his devotion unwavering… until her past resurfaced, revealing him as Austin, her stepbrother—a man who’d coveted her from the shadows. Now torn between the dream lover who shattered her and the liar who remade her, Penelope faces an impossible choice: Whose hand will she take? *** [Excerpt] "Penelope Woods." "Ah... Yes?" My breath hitched as wetness pooled under his touch. "Do you want to be my Luna?" "...Yes..." "Such a good girl." Zayn's lips brushed my ear as he whispered coldly, "But you don't have a wolf." The contrast was jarring—our bodies so close, our movements so intimate, yet his words were like ice, draining all warmth from me in an instant. I was frozen, unable to move. *** CONTENT WARNING: This experimental narrative contains graphic depictions of violence, bloodshed, and explicit sexual content. Viewer discretion is advised.
