The Abused is The Abuser in Another World by AkumaNoir062893
44 parts Ongoing Mature
In a world where demons, dragons, and forgotten gods vie for dominance, Noir-a former junk collector thrust into a realm beyond his understanding-finds himself at the center of a dark, unfolding mystery. Awakened in a new body after a brutal betrayal, Noir is driven by a singular desire for revenge against those who wronged him. But the rules of this world are unlike anything he's ever known, and he quickly realizes he's caught in a deadly game with no guide, no allies, and powers he can barely comprehend. Bound by an uneasy alliance with Asmodeus, a frustrated demon prince, and Takir, a cunning dragon spirit, Noir must navigate a treacherous landscape filled with ancient magic, powerful weapons, and shifting alliances. As he gains new abilities and confronts the dangers lurking in every shadow, he wields "The Grimreaper," a weapon feared even by gods-a hungry blade that craves the essence of its victims to grow stronger. With two powerful entities trapped in his mind and a mysterious dashboard visible only to him, Noir must learn to master the arcane forces at his disposal or risk being consumed by them. As the binding contracts tighten and new threats emerge, Noir's journey is one of survival, discovery, and the relentless pursuit of vengeance-where every step forward could lead to unimaginable power or utter annihilation. In a world where every choice is a gamble, can Noir find his way to revenge, or will he become just another pawn in a game played by forces far beyond his understanding?

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs
30 parts Complete Mature
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.
