In the gleaming city of Virelion, where superheroes are worshipped as gods, young Theo Lucent is cursed-or gifted-with the ability to see people's sins as haunting visions. Hidden away by fearful parents, he grows up surrounded by the ghosts of society's darkest truths. As he uncovers the corruption rotting the superhero elite from within, Theo transforms from a silent outcast into a symbol of rebellion. Branded a terrorist and hunted by the very heroes he exposes, Theo becomes a myth known as the Sin-Eater, armed only with the truth. In a world built on lies, his power isn't destruction-it's revelation. And sometimes, the bravest act of heroism is simply refusing to look away.

Reincarnated from Hell
Kael was never meant to return. Condemned to the endless torment of Hell, his story should have ended in fire and chains. But fate - or something darker - spat him back into a broken world, alive yet scarred, carrying the whispers of the damned inside his soul. Now Kael walks a wasteland scarred by war, hunted by shadows that remember his name. With every step, fragments of his past bleed through: memories of battles fought under Hell's banner, of a Legion that once obeyed his command, and of a destiny he cannot escape. But Kael is not alone. With Lira, a warrior sworn to fight the darkness, he must confront both the enemies rising from the abyss and the darkness rising within himself. For the chains of Hell are not broken - only shifted. And as the Legion stirs once more, Kael faces an impossible truth: To save this world, he may have to become the very monster he fears. Reincarnated from Hell is a gripping sci-fi fantasy epic of redemption, war, and power - a story where shadows whisper, worlds burn, and one man must decide if he is humanity's savior... or its doom...

The Demon's Tongue
Centuries ago, a demon known only as Kael the Silenced was bound inside a forbidden grimoire, his voice sealed by ancient magic. Any word he speaks can kill-and any mortal who hears him dies screaming. When Elara, a reclusive human scribe and linguistic scholar, is hired to translate the lost language of the grimoire, she doesn't realize she's breaking the final seal. Now, Kael is free-but his curse binds him to her. She's the only one who can hear his voice without dying, and the only one who can write the words that might unbind them both. Every word he speaks through her ink burns with power-and temptation.
Magekiller
Cain was just a farm boy on the edge of a war he never asked for, until a raid by Kirel's mages left his village in ash and his arm forever cursed. Twisted, scarred, and burning with living fire, his limb became both a torment and a weapon. Shunned by those he tried to save, hunted by soldiers, and scorned as a monster; Cain has only one oath left to guide him: destroy the mages who ruined his life. But vengeance isn't simple. Every spell he casts on himself to build resistance tears his body apart. Every bounty he takes drags him deeper into a world of guilds, black markets, and bloodshed. And every step toward power pulls him closer to the truth of the curse in his veins, a truth tied to Kirel's High Mage, whose sorcery could burn nations to the ground.
No Power, No Chains
In a world where power defines worth, Shallot Black was born with nothing. No gift. No glory. Just a name and a legacy that wanted him erased. Cast out by the Black family and forgotten by a system that worships strength, Shallot disappeared. But he didn't die. He trained. He planned. And in the silence between wars and headlines, a new name began to surface. Reaper. He doesn't wear a cape. He doesn't need a spotlight. But when the world's foundations start to crack when hero agencies fall, and power becomes panic all eyes turn to the one man they couldn't control. Shallot isn't here to save the system. He's here to dismantle it. Because the powerless were never weak. And the Reaper never asks permission to cut the chain. Please let me know if there is any way I can improve.

Wake: Whispers from the Underland
After a devastating breakup, Lyra finds herself lost, both emotionally and physically, wandering through a dark and mysterious realm known as the Underland. In this haunting place where shadows stretch endlessly and time slips away, Lyra is consumed by her grief and confusion, unable to find her way back to the world she once knew. In the depths of the Underland, Lyra meets Damien, a seemingly perfect guide who promises to heal her broken heart. With his gentle words and comforting presence, Damien convinces Lira that he can help her move on from her past and restore her peace. But as Lyra's trust in him grows and love starts to blossom, so does her unease. Something about Damien doesn't feel right. His kindness seems too perfect, his offers of solace too convenient, and soon she begins to suspect that the Underland-and Damien himself-are not what they appear to be. As Lyra delves deeper into the twisted and deceptive landscape of the Underland, she learns the terrifying truth: the realm thrives on the souls of those who are lost and broken, offering false healing in exchange for their soul. To escape before the Underland consumes her soul, Lyra must confront her deepest pain, face the emotional scars she's been running from, and discover the strength to heal from within. But Damien, now revealed to be a sinister force in the Underland, will stop at nothing to keep her trapped in his false embrace. In a race against time, Lyra must break free from Damien's manipulative grip and find a way to reclaim her heart before it's too late. The only question that remains: can she heal in time to save herself, or will the Underland claim her soul forever?Complete
Awakening
A small and quiet Utah town is full of life. Friendly neighbors. Beautiful scenery. Friends and family that stand by you no matter what. And the light of faith being their guide and protection. Also hostile shadowy creatures, a town-wide epidemic, an unexpected famine, and unrest between even the closest of friends. And standing in the middle of it all is an ordinary young man with the remarkable, and secret, ability to see spirits and specters. Or at least, that's what he thought. Turns out he's the most unordinary being there, and with his town falling into disarray, all he has are his abilities and a mysterious weapon only he can wield.

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. Patreon.com/akibo
