Becoming A Monster

Red, the main protagonist, was born an orphan. At first, the world was very good to him as he was given a dear friend named Ienze. But later on, as if the decision of the world was opposed, his dear friend was killed by the two most powerful beings in their world. Of course, as a lowly figure, Red was oblivious of their identity. But despite that, Red had made up his mind that he will get strong and kill those that killed his dear friend. And on the way to becoming strong, he will have lots of adventures and one day he will go astray from his real goal, which is vengeance. But thankfully, he has fate as his guide. He will meet various people. Some of them will become his enemy while some will become his ally. Finally, he will reach the peak, which will open his eyes to the real structure of the world. And, by that time, he will have become fate's personification, which is fun at first. But later on, he will understand that great power comes with great responsibility. By that time, the question is, what will he do? Will he surrender his power? Or perhaps give up on his vengeance? Or maybe he will shrink down and let things be? As for the answer to those questions, it is yet to be decided.

Osric Thorne was the discarded heir of the Thorne shipping empire, a man who thought he had everything until his wife, Elowen Vane, and his best friend, Cuthbert, threw him off the Gilded Sovereign in the middle of a Category 5 storm. With his feet chained to an anchor and the scent of Elowen's expensive perfume lingering in the salt air, Osric was meant to be a forgotten feast for the scavengers of the abyss. Instead, his family’s "worthless" heirloom—the Abyssal Pearl—reacts to his dying rage. Fusing with his heart, the pearl awakens the [Leviathan Evolution System]. In the crushing, lightless depths of the Atlantic, Osric doesn't drown...he adapts. By consuming the apex predators of the sea, he gains their power: the obsidian armor of the great white, the bio-electric discharge of the deep-sea eel, and the terrifying sonar of the prehistoric leviathan. Now, a monster is rising from the depths. Osric Thorne isn't coming back just to reclaim his company; he’s coming back to dismantle the Vane legacy piece by piece and turn the surface world into his personal hunting ground. He was once a man of the boardrooms, but he has returned as the Warden-King of the Abyss. The elites of Oakhaven are about to learn a bitter truth: the ocean doesn't forgive, and neither does Osric Thorne.

What if I told you that they were right? That Bigfoot, The Abominable Snowman, The Loch Ness monster and yes, even The Boogey man were actually real? What if I told you your parents were right when they told you that there are monsters and demons that lurked in the shadows at night? I have seen those monsters, through visions of prophecy and none have baffled me more than The Marauder and The Supremes. Beings even Science could not explain, creatures that held godlike power for so long and walked among us as both oppressors and at times, as saviors. This is one such prophecy I had that I had to put on paper. Call it a story if you wish (it would actually make me feel less crazy). But this is the story of Brendan Payne; the sixteen year old high school boy who went from a regular teenager to finding out that he was not human but instead was born into a race of beings that were believed to be the final and perfect stage of evolution. And by finding out his destiny, Brendan is torn between fighting for the humans who resented him and joining forces with the callous yet beautiful witch, Finch, who claims to have his best interests at heart. This...is The Legend Of Marauder
