With the system’s help, his martial arts cultivation flowed as naturally as water finding a channel—completely devoid of any bottlenecks.Even the profound realms of technique that unparalleled geniuses struggled desperately to comprehend were, in Chen Cheng’s eyes, nothing more than a progress bar waiting to be filled through diligent practice!Step by step, Chen Cheng rises against the tide!

“Let me go Henry,” I said coldly. “I am not yours, not anymore.”Henry scoffed. “You will always be mine. I was your first mate.”“And yet you rejected me. I don’t need you anymore, I have-”“Who do you have, Nyssa? Him?” He laughed humorlessly. “You don’t even know who he is.”Rowan growled, a low warning sound. “Shut the fuck up!”“Why?” Henry shot back. “Tell her what you’re hiding, Rowan, let’s see if she still loves you after.”*********************Nyssa was once the beloved of the pack—the Beta’s daughter, mated to the Alpha.But once her parents died, and she was unable to shift, her life began to crumble until she was finally rejected by her mate, Henry.It was hard enough that he left her for her best friend, but as the Beta’s daughter, she was forced to remain with him until an attack leaves their pack vulnerable and they have to seek help for the lycans.What was meant to be a diplomatic trip turned into chaos when Nyssa realizes she is mated to Rowan—the lycan king.Lycans and wolves don’t get along, and there is a lot of history between the three of them.To Nyssa, the angel she doesn’t know is better than the devil she knows,But what happens when that angel is just another devil in disguise?After all, Rowan is hiding some dark secrets of his own, the kind that threatens their already fragile bond.Would she be able to handle the pressure?

You shall become king—

Ruling over all “serpents” in the world…

Become the man who bears the brunt of dragonkind’s fear and hatred.

A modern era when humanity is threatened by attacks from giant dragons flying from beyond the sky.

Controlling “leviathans”—serpentine spiritual beings created through magic—humanity is locked in a protracted war of resistance against the dragons.

Fortunately, there exist witches known as “magi”—battle maidens of salvation who formed covenants with “serpents” in order to combat dragons.

Nicknamed Hal, the young man called Haruga Haruomi makes his living through facilitating the covenants of these girls.

At the (partially coercive) request of his childhood friend Asya, one of Europe’s top witches, Hal returns to Tokyo New Town after an absence of three years.

Accompanied by the beautiful Asya whose appearance rivaled a fairy’s, Hal is running all over the place to secure his base of operations and taking care of matters related to school transfer when the elite dragon Soth suddenly attacks—!?

Life has been breathed into a brand new myth between dragons and dragonslayers.

A grand opening to the “birth” of a top-class battle epic!

When Kael died, he thought it was the end.Instead, he woke up in the body of Kaelion Drenlor—the disgraced heir to a powerful duchy in a kingdom on the verge of collapse.In this cruel and mystical world ruled by bloodlines, magic, and ancient deities, Kael isn't interested in playing the hero.Not when being a villain gets things done faster.Cunning, cold, and dangerously ambitious, Kael begins his rise from the shadows.He doesn't shy away from blood or betrayal—and he certainly doesn’t mind bending hearts to his will.As power gathers around him, so do those drawn by obsession, loyalty… and desire.But even as his influence grows, he keeps his true face hidden. Behind the mask of a second identity, he handles the dirty work the noble Kaelion could never touch.In the darkest corners of the realm, he plants the seeds of something greater: a secret organization—The Order of the Black Sigil.Built to manipulate, infiltrate, and control, it becomes a force whispered about in fear.But as Kael pulls strings from behind the scenes, the world begins to see him as more than just a shadowy lord. They begin to worship him.And gods, even fake ones, are dangerous.In a world of schemes, monsters, and ancient mysteries, Kael never asked to be a savior. But one step at a time, through love, lies, and war—he carves his throne from the bones of empires.In the end, only one will sit upon the world.###Before you dive in, here are some things you should know to better enjoy the story:1. The MC is not an all-knowing monster from Chapter 1Our main character is a teenager who transmigrated into a dangerous world. He’s not some ancient cultivator with 500 years of experience. At the start, he’s a bit unhinged (he kills someone in Chapter 1), but still grounded—more of an antihero than a villain.But this is a journey of corruption. As he faces the horrors of this world and gains power, his mindset begins to change—slowly, and then completely. By the time you're deep into the story, he’ll become the kind of villain others whisper about in fear.So no, he’s not your overpowered righteous MC. He’s dangerous, ambitious, and eventually terrifying.2. Yes, there’s romance—but NO, this is not a fast food haremLet’s be real:Day 1: Meet Girl ADay 2: Sleep with Girl ADay 3: Onto Girl BThat’s not happening here.This novel values slow burn, proper development, and emotional payoff. The MC does have multiple love interests, but every relationship is earned. Each girl has depth, motivations, and unique interactions with Kael. No one’s here just for fanservice. And yes—they each get proper screen time.If you’re here for emotional stakes, chemistry, and realistic progression: this one’s for you.3. The worldbuilding is deep and rich.High fantasy. Secret cults. Ancient orders. Political schemes. Forgotten islands. Brutal wars. It’s a lore-heavy universe built to explore.4. The power system is risky and unique.Getting stronger can literally drive you mad. But don’t worry—our MC finds ways to survive (and thrive).Also, each continent has its own power rules—some based on bloodlines, others on potions, rituals, spells or forbidden arts. So expect variety.5. Lots of action and crazy fights.From intense duels to massive battles, this story brings the chaos.6. Side characters matter.No “zombie” side characters here.They have their own stories, motives, and growth. They're not just props for the MC. Some might even surprise you.7. Yes, there are other transmigrators and regressors.But they appear later in the story—and when they do, things get wild.
