Beyond The Divorce

Orian Kestrel just wanted a stable desk job, but a clerical error lands him the role of Director at the Department of Ethereal Services. Now, he's managing demon permits and ghost complaints under the watchful, murderous eyes of Enforcement Officer Vireya Solith. As Orian's 'bizarre' administrative fixes start uncovering centuries-old secrets, he realizes the department isn't just inefficient—it's hiding the fact that the dead have already outnumbered the living on Earth.

Roland Mac Donald built an empire from nothing then lost everything to the two people he trusted most. Poisoned slowly, broken mentally, and discarded off a cliff like a forgotten relic, his death was supposed to be the end of his story. But death rejected him. When Roland awakens, he is no longer powerless. A mysterious SYSTEM binds itself to his existence, granting him skills, intelligence upgrades, financial mastery, and combat abilities far beyond human limits. With it, he begins climbing back from the ashes…not just to survive, but to reclaim everything that was stolen from him. As his influence grows, Roland infiltrates elite business circles, takes control of hidden military forces, and uncovers a deeper conspiracy behind his betrayal one that reaches far beyond his brother James and fiancée Naomi. Every mission pulls him closer to dangerous zones, deadly illusions, and truths that confuse the line between reality and manipulation. But the deeper he goes, the clearer one thing becomes, his betrayal was only the beginning. Because someone else has been watching him rise… and the SYSTEM was never meant to belong to him alone. And when the final notification appears, there is no option to refuse. Only one message remains: “WELCOME BACK, HOST… OR SHOULD WE SAY, EXPERIMENT NUMBER SEVEN?”

They burned his home. They erased his family. And for ten years, they believed Dante Moretti was dead along with the ashes. He returns with nothing but cheap clothes, a cold stare, and fists trained by the legendary Master Armani—the man who turned him into a weapon. In a city ruled by money and bloodlines, Dante is mocked as a nobody, humiliated as a stray, and treated like dirt by elites who don’t know whose empire they’re standing in. When he saves a powerful heiress from death, she repays him with contempt, believing he’s just another poor man reaching above his place. What she doesn’t know is that he owns the sky above her head and her family’s fate is already tied to his. Forced into a marriage meant to control him, Dante steps into the lion’s den willingly because kings don’t avoid traps. They turn them into thrones. This is not a story about love at first sight. It’s about power reclaimed, enemies crushed, and a man who lets the world laugh… right before it learns to bow. Insults turn into kneeling. Laughter turns into fear. And every man who once looked down on him pays in ruin. They called him a nobody. Now the city will learn his name in a hard way.

Humanity has fought a terrifying invasion for centuries, relying on Aether cultivation to survive. Yet even its strongest warriors cannot uncover the truth behind their enemies. In humanity’s final battle, Kaevryn, the last guardian, faces an enemy beyond his understanding. Just as everything seems lost, a mysterious Core awakens within him. Then, a seventeen-year-old boy begins experiencing memories of that impossible battle. With a weak body and little cultivation, Kaevryn must start from nothing. But the memories of humanity’s greatest warrior may be his only chance to change the future. As he trains, the mysterious Core reveals a hidden world, a powerful phantom, and secrets that could change everything he knows. Can Kaevryn grow strong enough to protect humanity before the darkness beyond the Celestial Veil returns?

For three long years, Ethan Rhys lived as a broke, live-in son-in-law for the Vance family. He cooked their meals, swept their floors, and swallowed daily insults from his cold wife, Chloe, and her vicious mother, Brenda. Nobody knew that Ethan was actually the Sovereign Lord—the supreme master of a multi-trillion-dollar global syndicate completing a mandatory three-year trial of absolute humility. On the exact day his trial ends, Chloe hands him divorce papers at her grandfather's 70th birthday banquet to be with Julian Sterling, a wealthy real estate heir. Ethan signs without begging and drops his cheap wedding ring into her champagne glass. Before he can walk away, twelve armored cars surround the hotel, and the province's richest titan kneels before Ethan, restoring his trillions and ultimate power. Ethan immediately bankrupts the Sterling family and cuts off the Vance family, leaving Chloe and her mother penniless in the slums. But his revenge is only beginning. Ethan discovers his younger sister, Lily, who vanished four years ago, was kidnapped by the Darkwood Syndicate—and that his parents' deaths were not from illness, but slow poison administered by Brenda Vance under orders from Lord Sterling, head of the Nine Great Clans in the Capital. Armed with unlimited wealth and martial strength, Ethan launches a crusade from his hometown to the Capital, crushing corrupt billionaires, taking down the Nine Great Clans, and reclaiming his family's rightful legacy.

Despised by his wife she asked for a divorce after bringing another man home into their bed. The heavens seem to roar in fury and when thunder struck his phone, a new app was installed. *Infinite Wealth App: Congratulations New User, let's begin your rise to glory!* *Ding! New car has been awarded!* *Ding! User's bank account has been credited!* *Ding! Property awarded to user!* *Ding! Complete tasks and receive massive rewards!* When his ex wife sees him rise, she falls to her knees in regret. Those who put him down wish they could turn back the hands of time.

"Kill it! It's a defect! A stain like that has no right to exist in our city!" I looked at the small, pathetic puddle of black ink at my feet. The High Inquisitor’s laughter echoed through the hall, followed by the mocking sneers of the elite. My family’s last hope was crushed. My rank was zero. My future was a death sentence. But as the guard’s boot came down to crush my "beast," the world went cold. "Don't," I whispered. It was too late. The shadow didn't die. It opened its mouth. One gulp. That was all it took for a Rank-B knight to vanish into the darkness. In a world where Beast Tamers are kings and ranks are law, I was born a zero. They called my summon a "Formless Blob." They sentenced us to death before we could even breathe. Little did they know, my beast isn't from this world. It doesn't have a rank because the system can't measure the Abyss. It doesn't have a limit because it grows by eating everything they hold dear. Ranks? Social status? Respect? My shadow is hungry. And today, the elites are on the menu.

In a world where your class decides your worth, Ravel Ashlock was a Bearer: the lowest class, paid to haul packs into dungeons and carry corpses out. On Meridane, the System reads every seventeen-year-old and writes a class on a plate. Warriors, mages and knights rise. For fourteen years, Ravel carried their luggage and their dead. He buried the people he loved and trusted a party that sold him to the Church the moment he saw what he was never meant to see: a silver thread rising from every corpse, pulled somewhere it should not go. His best friend killed him for it. He wakes at seventeen, on his Reading day. His mother is alive. His sister is eleven. His betrayers have done nothing yet. The plate that once read Bearer now reads Necromancer, Unregistered, a class the System insists does not exist. Regression has not made him strong. He is level one. His old skills live in memory, not muscle. Raising a rat costs him a nosebleed. The Church hunts anything that smells of the grave, and the priest watching him will one day order his death. He knows which dungeons no one has cleared, which heroes will fall, and the day the sky will open. He does not know why death let him go. So Ravel does what a Bearer does. He picks up the dead no one else will touch and asks them, one by one, whether they are finished. Some are not. From the flooded canals of Greywater to courts where gods bargain over worlds, this is the story of a man building an army from promises, a System built to hide a crime, and one question: who decides where a soul goes when it ends?

After three years of hiding his trillionaire identity to play the "perfect husband," Xavier Knight is served divorce papers on his anniversary—only to be picked up in a convoy of Rolls-Royces by the woman who will become his new, more powerful wife. I gave Sarah Miller everything: my time, my heart, and three years of silent service while she climbed the corporate ladder. But on our third anniversary, she didn't bring home a gift; she brought a billionaire suitor and a divorce contract. She called me a "parasite." Her mother called me a "stain." They thought they were throwing away trash. Little did they know, the "delivery boy" they despised was the elusive Chairman of the Sovereign Group. Now, the trial is over. The lion is awake. And Sarah is about to realize that losing me was the most expensive mistake of her life.

On the night of his mother-in-law’s sixtieth birthday, he was publicly divorced, humiliated, and discarded like trash—right in front of her first love. He didn’t argue. He didn’t beg. He signed the papers and walked away. What no one knew was that the “useless” son-in-law had sealed his true identity for years. Once the divorce was finalized, the seal broke. After the divorce, powerful CEOs sought his command. Medical giants trembled at his name. Martial clans bowed or were erased. Those who mocked him lost everything—status, wealth, pride. His ex-wife watched her world collapse, regret tearing her apart as she realized the man she abandoned had become untouchable. Now they kneel. Now they beg. But when power stands at the summit, regret means nothing. After the divorce, he didn’t look back— because the entire city was already at his feet.
