WARNING intense profanity.
"Kael-if you're reading this, I'm already gone.
Don't trust the Horns."
He said it was just a sickness. That he'd be fine.
But the truth was in the note I wasn't supposed to find.
"The Aether doesn't heal. It takes. It whispers, and waits, and wears you down until you say yes."
My brother thought he could handle it. Thought he could fix everything with a drop of borrowed power.
He was wrong.
Now the Horns are waking.
The Beast is stirring.
And I've got a demon cat with too many teeth and a name I gave him as a joke.
This isn't a story about saving the world.
It's about surviving what we left buried.
They should've never built the city so high.
One wrong blow below-
and the whole world comes crashing down.

Shadow Archive
When the world collapsed, it wasn't war, famine, or plague that brought it down. It was words. Sentient grimoires devoured cities. Living paragraphs swallowed memories. And language itself fractured reality. Kael Orven, once a brilliant young Librarian, now roams the ruins with no past beyond the glyphs carved into his arm-glyphs that burn every time he faces a corrupted text. When he witnesses a book eat a man's face, Kael realizes something terrifying: The words remember him. And they want him back. Forced into an uneasy alliance with Lira Vein, a blind exorcist who "hears corruption," Kael enters the war between Archivists, cults, and Monarch-class Grimoires capable of rewriting the world. But every answer he finds only leads to one terrifying truth: Kael once opened the Shadow Archive... and he is the reason the world collapsed. Now the grimoires are whispering again. The Monarch is returning. And the last line of the world is already being written. To save the future, Kael must walk back into the catastrophe he created- and rewrite the story that erased him. If it doesn't erase him again first. 🔥 Perfect for fans of: dark fantasy, cosmic horror, grim magic systems, emotional duos, tragic pasts, and post-apocalyptic mystery.Complete

The Hero's Guide to Heroing
A story about superheroes in a modern world. Once, humans and power wielders were at war. The war brought both side to the brink of destruction, forcing peace or extinction. A tentative peace prevailed for a time. Enough to build trust between the two sides for many years. But as the two sides grew together some of the old hatreds began to stir again. Those who held these old hatreds became known as villains, while those who fought them became known as heroes. "Are you sure this will work?" one of the figures around the table ask. All are dressed in black and hide their faces. No one wants to be known to anyone else in 'this' type of alliance. "I'm certain of it. We need to simply kill the few true heroes left, and then expose the rest for the self righteous corrupt creatures they are. I've already started gathering the pieces I need." "What's the end goal here?" a third figure asks. "To purge the world of corruption and all those who turn a blind eye to it." There is a long silence before a fourth voice speaks out. "Your talking about mass slaughter. I won't be a part of this." the figure stands and begins to leave the table. "It seems there is corruption in our very own ranks.... I suppose the best place to start is within the inner vessel, is it not?" "No! What are you Doing? Stop!"
New Game +
Rimuru Tempest, now at the absolute pinnacle of his power, stands as the revered leader of the Jura-Tempest Federation. He has seen it all: triumph and heartbreak, loyalty and betrayal, the rise of his nation, and the tragic price of war. But what if he could do it all over again? Ciel performs an unprecedented feat-sending Rimuru's consciousness back to the very moment of his reincarnation. This isn't a second chance; it's a New Game +. Armed with the wisdom of a god-tier being, the memories of a fulfilled future, and the power of a True Dragon, Rimuru must navigate the pitfalls he once faced as a naive, newly-reborn slime. This time, he won't be caught off guard by the schemes of Falmuth, Clayman, or the complex political machinations of the world. With his foreknowledge, Rimuru is determined to build a true paradise, a nation where no friend is lost and no sacrifice is in vain. But even with his immense power and knowledge, the past isn't so easily rewritten. New variables and unforeseen challenges await. Can Rimuru truly create a perfect world, or will the weight of his own godhood and the very nature of time itself create a different, darker path? --- Disclaimer This is a work of fanfiction.

No Step On Slime
A Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken / That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime fanfiction. Rimuru Tempest, once known as Satoru Mikami, is faced with a dilemma much different than anything he's ever had when building the Jura Tempest Federation. Although it is incredibly convenient to have a reincarnated companion from Earth, Rimuru soon finds the cultural divide between him and his fellow reincarnate to be a barrier that threatens to end their acquaintanceship. Hunter Revin was once a hard-working gunsmith. Killed during the American Troubles, his dying regret over having accomplished very little in his first life resulted in his reincarnation. With knowledge on how to create some of the deadliest and most efficient handheld weapons of the 20th to 21st century in his head, how will this gun-loving American contribute to changing the face of a pre-industrialized magic-dependent world? This fan-story is based on the anime/manga adaptation.Complete
Tensura - Systematic Overpowering (Milim Nava x male reader)
Y/N L/N was a normal 19 year old boy. He enjoyed all kinds of things, like anime, video games, and fantasy, including a bit of mythology. He was living a normal life, even if he didn't really like it. He dropped out of college, and was working at a fast food chain. But one fateful day... he died! What a shocker. No one expected that here, right? He then was reborn into the colorful but hostile world of Tensura! The powerful skills he'd gain from that reincarnation will guide him on a journey to become strong. After all he wasn't planning on being controlled and be forced to work a job he didn't want like in his previous life. But there was one skill in particular... One skill that changed the very essence of his being. One skill that simply called itself "The System". (Saybil is only there to represent the MC and has nothing to do with the actual story.

Kael Morrigan is nineteen years old and already broken. In a world where Gates tore apart reality and flooded seventy percent of Earth with monsters, there are no countries left-only Sectors. Walled fortresses where humanity's remnants huddle behind concrete and pray the next Gate doesn't rupture before the Hunters clear it. Seventy-two hours. That's all the time between survival and annihilation. Kael isn't a Hunter. He's a porter-the lowest, most expendable piece of the industry that keeps humanity alive. Every morning, Gate sirens wail. Every day, the countdown begins again. Every night, Kael comes home with contaminated lungs, bleeding hands, and barely enough to buy protein paste and recycled water. The Hunters call him deadweight. The corporations see him as replaceable. His neighbors avoid his eyes because they know he's just another corpse waiting for a Gate to claim him. But Kael gets up anyway. Binds his ruined feet. Shoulders his pack. Walks into the monsters' den. Not for glory or hope-those luxuries died with the old world. He does it because two girls in a freezing room need him to come home alive. In a world drowning in nightmares, survival isn't heroic. It's just refusing to quit when quitting would be easier than breathing. This is the story of how far one man will break before he's finally free. == If you'd like to support my work, you can check out my Patreon; it'll have advance chapters for free.
