In a world where humans have harnessed a volatile energy source-one capable of breathing life into the dying or reducing empires to ash-civilization teeters on the edge of collapse.
Anarchy reigns. Cities crumble. Laws mean nothing. In this new age, strength is no longer a virtue-it is survival. The weak are swept away like dust in the storm. Only the powerful carve out a place for themselves in the chaos.
Amidst this turmoil stands Alex, a young boy caught between two worlds: the brutal reality of power and the quiet yearning for meaning. While others chase strength for dominance or safety, Alex questions it all.
"Is strength truly the purpose of our existence? Are we born only to conquer, to endure, to survive? Or is there something more... something deeper than the fight?"
As he grows stronger, so too does his unease. For each battle won, each power mastered, he feels the weight of the world press harder on his soul.
In a world where power decides who lives and who fades into oblivion, can Alex find a reason to live beyond mere survival?

Hero Time (Composite Ben 10 reader x Multiple Crossovers)
"In a world where Grimm, Danger Beasts, Monsters, and notorious villains run rampant, there are those who stand against them. Benders, Huntsmen, Heroes, people who have the power to fight them, for the sole purpose of defending the innocent. At least some of them. Other guys just want to prove how powerful they are, and push around people without powers. I learned that the hard way. My name is Y/n Tennyson. I'm 20 years old, and I am in possession of the most powerful alien weapons, in the universe. When I was little, people like Bakugo and Issei picked on me everyday, just because I was too powerless to do anything. So one day, I decided to drop out of Union Academy and went on a cross country road trip with my grandpa and cousin. Then on our first stop, I went out on a walk where a meteor fell out of the sky and crashed right in front of me. But, as it turns out, it wasn't a meteor, but a pod containing a watch that, once stuck upon your wrist, could turn you into any alien you want. Needless to say that my life went uphill from there. I traveled across the galaxy, saved it from blowing up. Fought a giant alien, AS a giant alien. Stopped a race from destroying the universe. Blew up my watch. Got a new one. Dated a tennis player, and broke up with her. Fought a giant alien, as a giant alien AGAIN, this time in Tokyo. Killed an interdimensional demon along with my archnemesis. And made friends with a Slimebiote named Skurd. Now me and my friends are unlicensed heroes who defend the world from destruction. Mainly because it's the right thing to do, but partially to show Union Academy what kind of hero I am now. And I can't wait to see the look on their faces."

The Elementless King
Every child in the world dreams of manifesting their element- water, wind, silk even gas. Strength that determines worth, destiny, even survival. But when Renji's time came, nothing answered. No flame, no spark, no element. Just emptiness. Branded a failure, mocked by the world, Renji drowns his shame in shadows-until something stirs in the void where his element should have been. A darkness older than kings, a power that whispers of crowns shattered and kingdoms undone. Now hunted by both men and monsters, Renji must choose: Live as the elementless outcast they believe him to be... Or embrace the abyss inside him, and rise as something far more dangerous. He was born with nothing. But the world will remember him as- The Elementless King. ⚠️ This story is entirely my own creation. AI tools were only used to assist with (grammar and sentence structure).

Attribute : Devil -- BOOK 1 (Under Development)
In a world where every human is born with a unique attribute-an essence that defines their power, their identity, and their destiny-it is the Universe itself that decides who they are meant to be. These attributes might manifest as magical powers, a predetermined fate, an omen, or a divine gift bestowed by the Creator. Some acquire magnificent, extraordinary abilities; others receive mild or moderate traits; some appear mundane, but never disgraceful. The Universe alone knows which attribute best suits each individual. Yet, on one solemn night, far away on a distant island, everything changed. In a quiet church, as a baby was being granted their attribute by the Universe, a shift occurred-one that would redefine the very meaning of disgrace. Suddenly, chaos erupted. A mysterious hooded man snatched the infant away. Before he vanished, the last word he noticed inscribed in the pedestal was: Devil. A name synonymous with a curse, the lowest of the low. Was it a misfortune? Had the Universe condemned this child? Or was there a darker purpose behind it? Can the Universe truly foresee the future it sets for its children? Dive into the enigmatic journey of Lash-a tale of a frozen region, a kidnapping, perhaps even a hijacking. Are you ready to witness the fury of the Devil incarnate? This anime-inspired fantasy saga awaits your mind's embrace. (Not Final Product). NOTE : Might Lack Notations.
