Progression Stories

An ordinary man. A mysterious contract. An infinite armory beyond imagination. Miles has spent five dull years trapped in a lifeless nine-to-five routine, watching his dreams slowly fade away. Just when he believes his life will end in mediocrity, a package arrives in the middle of the night-delivered by a stranger who vanishes without a trace. Inside the package lies a metal box. Inside the box... something that should never exist. When Miles awakens from a terrifying dream, he realizes the nightmare was no dream at all. By signing a blood contract, he has been chosen as the wielder of the Infinite Armory-a mysterious arsenal capable of summoning unlimited weapons, technology, and tools beyond human understanding. But power comes with a price. To survive, Miles must complete a mission only hinted at by a shadowy entity: "Save everything that must be saved." As the line between reality and the unknown begins to blur, Miles is dragged into a dangerous world of contracts, weapons, and hidden truths-where every choice could mean salvation... or total destruction. The countdown has begun. And there is no turning back.

Before worlds had names, there was a Pulse, a rhythm born in the void, shattered into light and shadow.From that fracture, destinies were scattered across the universe. On a distant world beneath twin moons, seven young adepts cross a boundary that was never meant to be found. A hidden river. A sealed path. A choice that cannot be undone. What begins as curiosity becomes silence, secrecy, and power that no one was prepared to face. As ancient forces stir and unseen eyes turn toward them, bonds begin to change, trust fractures. Loyalties blur. And desire, dangerous, unspoken, and forbidden, takes root where it should not exist. Because some connections are more dangerous than enemies, some love is a crime written into the laws of creation. And some choices don't destroy the world; they change who you become inside it. This is a slow-burn blend of fantasy, mystery, and forbidden romance, where power awakens before wisdom, and every heartbeat pulls them closer to a destiny they were never meant to survive.

Jake Rivers was always a parasite. He just didn't know it could be literal. A forgotten god caught him cheating at carnival games and decided to make the metaphor flesh. Now Jake is microscopic. Blind. Starving. A brain-eating worm in a fantasy world where magic is real and death comes from inside. Every creature he enters dies within weeks, neural pathways consumed one memory at a time. But first, they become legend! Jake takes one ability from each host. They gain all of his. Symbiosis and murder, always together. And he's getting addicted. Simple animal thoughts were bland. Complex minds are intoxicating. Intelligent consciousness tastes like nothing he's ever experienced. Every memory he consumes is better than the last, and the hunger grows stronger with each kill. The locals call it the Whisperer's Blessing. Power and death, arriving as one. Naga serpent-lords take notice of the pattern. But Jake is seeing something they can't: he's been everyone. Both predator and prey. He experiences reality from every angle, and reality is breaking. Magic is corrupting. Concepts are bleeding together. Something eldritch is pushing through the cracks between worlds, and the scattered civilizations of Ouroboros can't see it coming because they've never been anything but themselves. Jake has been everything. Knows languages no single being should speak. Understands magic from perspectives that shouldn't exist. He's becoming something unprecedented. Something necessary. Something monstrous. The god wanted him honest about what he was. Be careful what you wish for. This parasite might be the only thing that can consume an apocalypse. Dark progression fantasy. Visceral body horror. An addict climbs the food chain toward godhood.

Sabrina was murdered on an ordinary night. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't home anymore. A newborn in another world, her first sight was a glowing bar floating above her mother's head.

When a foreign crown prince arrives to claim the kingdom's princess, the quiet balance of the royal palace begins to crack. Beneath political schemes, magical duels, and shadowed assassins, a poor cook carrying a forgotten blessing stands at the center of it all. He does not wield a blade. He does not cast destructive spells. Yet his food steadies armies, shields the wounded, and turns the tide of conflict. This is a gentle progression fantasy- where power is forged not through conquest, but through warmth, resolve, and the courage to protect what truly matters.

POWER ON is a character-driven fantasy epic about destiny, identity, and the clash between ancient powers and modern hearts. Blending explosive elemental battles with quiet human moments, the story follows Juichi Nakamura-a young man thrust into a world not his own, bound to forces far older and more dangerous than he can comprehend. Juichi isn't a warrior. He's not gifted with natural charisma or perfect judgment. But when he arrives in an unfamiliar land, chased by shadows and haunted by fragmented dreams, he learns he is the vessel for not one, but multiple Elemental Dragons-beings of unimaginable power tied to the primal forces of fire, wind, water, and earth. This is an impossibility in a world where even bearing one elemental spirit is enough to change the fate of kingdoms. His existence upsets the balance. Some see him as a miracle. Others, a threat. And at the center of it all is Juichi, the boy burdened with too many dragons and too few answers. But this isn't a tale of one hero saving the world. It's about people choosing to stand, even when their world no longer makes sense. It's about navigating pain, embracing uncertainty, and daring to love when everything seems destined to fall apart. POWER ON excels in mixing moments of light-hearted comedy-like nosebleeds and awkward confessions-with moments of intense drama, revelation, and cinematic tension. It's a world where enemies may become allies, forgotten names may shape the future, and even monsters may dream of becoming something more. It's not just about defeating evil. It's about asking: What makes someone worthy of power? And what do they become when they finally have it? POWER ON invites readers to follow Juichi and his companions not just on a journey across landscapes-but across identity, memory, fate, and choice. And as the winds shift and prophecies stir, one truth becomes clear: This world will not survive unless its forgotten past is brought to light.

Description: If a person can't even remember their own name... can they truly exist? A young girl(?) opens her eyes in the middle of an endless forest, unable to recall her past or even who she is. At first, solitude doesn't feel like a missing piece - until an unseen voice whispers a temporary identity into her ear, a delicate flower becomes the breath against her chest, and silent footsteps begin to walk beside her. But not every outstretched hand carries kindness: the language of bodies can be a brutal reminder of whether mercy or savagery weighs heavier. Is this world a place meant to be lived in, or a refuge for someone who should have died long ago? Did she fall into it by chance, or did someone summon her on purpose? The choices she makes, the bonds she forms with the beings she encounters... are they truly "right," or has she already crossed an irreversible line somewhere along the way? BEIVA: I. Eternity Into Mortality is the first link in a philosophical and emotional journey, where a stranger without memories is forced, step by step, to face the heaviest questions about herself, those around her, and an unknown order pulling the strings. And once you set foot in this world, you may find yourself asking the real question: should you fear them... or the version of you hiding inside?

Readers of Seeker's Codex: Beyond the Abyssal Line know William Lockhart as the White Knight: Guildmaster of the Order of the Crescent Halo, master of Light Muti, Elric's polished protégé. At sixteen, he's none of that yet. He's a royal cadet from a lesser Britannian branch, Crown Light just awakened and barely under control. His blades of radiance stutter, his shields crack when pushed, and the wild lunges that will one day become Lightstride are messy, desperate flashes that leave his joints screaming. Commanders parade him as proof the Crown is watching the front, but in the mud and smoke he's just a boy who can't ignore civilians screaming behind the lines. This spin-off picks up long before the Sixth Battle of Britannia, before Radiant Charge becomes a myth and before Master Elric ever calls him "protégé." We watch William at sixteen caught between palace and trenches, expected to shine like a symbol while his own conscience pulls him the other way. Every bad order he chokes on, every life he fails to save, every moment he chooses people over protocol is what slowly carves him into the man you meet in the main story-the White Knight who stands in Magnara, watching a new generation rise, determined that they inherit a better world than the one that forged him.

Life was never the same since the pandemic for Maya. She broke up with her boyfriend, became distant from family, and now lived in a tiny studio apartment doing the same routine work for measly pay. The only ember of light in her terrible life was her favorite video game, Synthetic God, into which she had poured her heart and soul for the last two years. So much so, one could say she was the most powerful character in the game. So, when she found herself in the body of her character, she was ecstatic to say the least. However, the feeling didn't last long, for the world of Synthetic God is divided into two: one ruled by the Order of Gods and the other by the Institution of Mankind. Neither of them like powerful individuals. It just so happens that Maya chose a class that is hated by both factions. Within the rules of the game, Maya was just another character who played a role in the story. But now embodying the character whom she loved so dearly, her powers rivalled those who sat atop the hierarchy, and the gods do not like being challenged. While her journey is fraught with danger, Maya's true battle is on the inside. Burdened by the memories of her past and the events of the present, her two worlds collide. Amidst the chaos, Maya must confront herself or else risk becoming a husk of her former self. Chapter 5 days a week. Every Mon, Tue, Wed, Thurs, Fri
