In the lives of 18 teenagers who were fortunate enough to avoid death at the "Mental Institute for Young  Children and Teens", have come together to pick up the pieces of the events that unfolded. This institute is not your regular institute. It was a place made for teens and children to get experimented on because they possessed special powers or were given powers. It was not a place for help and special care, it was a place of harm and danger. These teenagers will go on a journey to find the real answer, the enemy, and the truth. As you follow the lives of every character personally, you will see their relationship grow, secrets being exposed, and darkness following wherever they go.

*Each character is based on one of my friends in real life except one of them, which would be me. Not all is factual but each character represents one of my friends. Even though I am writing this, my friends did pitch in ideas in certain parts, so I can't take credit for those.  Also, each chapter will be in a different character's perspective (think about The Game of Thrones series) and to make sure you don't get confused, before every chapter I will write everything you need to know about that character up to that point.

A Knight's Journey: A Cultivator's Journey in a Superhuman's Modern World by CalmWandererOriginal
102 parts Ongoing Mature
What happened after you died? This was a question that baffled many, with two mainstream thoughts battling each other: Religion with its Manichean division of Heaven and Hell and Science with its nihilistic approach of returning to the Universe as cosmic dust. Turned out Damian Knight, now Demian Mikhailov, discovered that none of those theories were actually true when his previous life's memories awakened after being knocked out by a gangster's heavy punch to the head. Now 18 years old with a deficient body, he will have to find a way to navigate this World's deep waters, where Fighters with transcendent Physical Attributes were merely at the bottom of the power scale. From Intrinsic Superhumans to Elemental Cultivators, a single misstep and death could snatch him again, with everything he built in this new life disappearing as if a mere illusion. Fortunately, his Reincarnation came with three incredible gifts: an Equalized Adaptive Physiology Perk, a Soul Bond Perk, and a Soul Shield Perk. Armed with those three Perks, the young man will grow his personal strength to protect not only himself but also his Aunt, Adeliya, and his two older cousins, Brynhild and Seraphine from this World's hidden forces, and with some luck it may even help him deal with those new and growing feelings birthed from the collision of his two lives. 'Choices have consequences'. A story of tangled Reincarnations, Forbidden Love, and Cultivation to Immortality. (Ebook Format) Book 1 is available for purchase. Check my Patreon. Disclaimers -The MC will not use Systematic Cultivation at first due to a lack of Technique, although his Perks will somewhat make up for it. -All romantic and sexual relationships in this book will be between consensual adults. -It's a three-women harem. It will be progressive and the three will not join his harem right away. -There will be some blood-related romantic relationships. Let's enjoy this adventure together. Calm Wanderer

WARNING: CONTAINING AMOUNTS OF SASS PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO MANKIND In the city of NYC--- Ok. Hold up. First of all, New York City. What, are ya gonna assume everyone here knows what NYC is? Anyway, this is about two people. I can almost hear you rolling your eyes. Another cliché teen fiction with a bad boy and a good girl? Nope. This is about superheroes. I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing. And if you can name all the references in this book, you truly are a gift to mankind. Fangirl out.

Long ago, our planet was visited by beings from another world, and they built cities here and created human beings here based on their own DNA but modified to suit the Earth's environment. We humans referred to them as their gods, who taught them the knowledge of their world, on which our world was modeled after. But alas, they were flawed beings, just like us humans. They had complicated romantic relationships with each other and with humans, and also led human populations to fight war with each other using weapons of mass destruction over their petty disagreements. Human beings are still part of that legacy. A group of enlightened people who have reincarnated many times from those days to learn that this is not the way forward. Pooling their resources together, they have decided to try and put an end to this vicious cycle once and for all. But how much do they know? How much control do they have over their destiny? Will they succeed? Or will they fall prey to the machinations of their enemy, whose identity they don't even know.
