In a city untouched by time, the night belongs to the hunt. The rules are simple: survive, capture, obey. But one night, everything changes. Someone-or something-has broken the balance, and nothing will ever be the same.

Whispers spread through the courtyards, secrets coil in the shadows, and loyalties are tested as bloodlines, tradition, and rebellion collide. For those chosen, the hunt is not just survival-it is destiny. For those who resist, it is death.

And at the heart of it all stands a girl who was never meant to belong, a boy who would bleed for her, and a city that will tear itself apart before letting go of its ancient ways.

Because in Sparta, the hunt isn't just a tradition.
It's a reckoning.

Ye Mo, a powerhouse of the cultivation world, failed her tribulation and was bound to a system. She now roams across three thousand small worlds, gathering merit, all in preparation for her return to the cultivation world and eventual ascension to godhood. In her very first life, she was just a small fry in the 21st century, she died saving a child. Unexpectedly, her soul was transported to the cultivation world, where she became a peerless prodigy.

The Amazing Spider-Man x MHA (OC) by pentv1

In a world reshaped by the dawn of Quirks-extraordinary superhuman abilities-the first spark of change came in the Chinese city of Qing Qing, where a child radiated light from their body. From that moment, humanity began evolving in unprecedented ways, with nearly 80% of the population manifesting powers that ranged from the miraculous to the bizarre. Society adapted, forming a new superhuman structure where Pro Heroes stood as paragons of hope and justice, battling villains who sought to exploit their gifts. But in this vibrant world of heroes, not all powers were created equal. Arashi Nakamura was born into a modest family, and is part of the dwindling 20% of humanity believed to be powerless. For years, he accepted his fate, resigned to a life in the shadows of larger-than-life heroes like All Might. Arashi admired them but understood that without a Quirk, he could never stand among them. Until one day he was bitten by the Radioactive Spider... My Hero Academia is owned by Kohei Horikoshi Spider-Man is owned by Marvel Comics
