Body Tempering

"Honey... Where have you been? Can you help me?" Glenn asked his wife; his body was completely paralyzed. "Don't 'honey' me, Glenn. I'm fed up with all this pretense. Why are you so stubborn? It would have been easier if you died in yesterday's accident..." Amber snapped, glaring at him, visibly frustrated. Glenn was surprised by his wife's words, and then Jason, his business partner, suddenly appeared and warmly embraced his wife. Glenn's world immediately crumbled. What betrayal cuts deeper than discovering those closest and dearest are the perpetrators? Glenn Smith knows it all too well. The revelation of his wife, Amber, deceiving him, fostering a secret love with Jason—his colleague—and Ethan not being his biological son but a product of their affair, shattered Glenn's world. The very individuals he lifted from poverty and elevated status stabbed him in the back. Yet, a life-threatening accident thrusts Glenn back in time to when he first encountered this deceitful duo; he seizes a second chance. Once a naive, unsuspecting man, Glenn now vows to metamorphose into someone unrecognisable, someone ready to retaliate against them!

They called him the empty vessel, a useless stain on a lineage of gods. While his cousins fractured the heavens with their golden qi, Chen Mo could not even light his first meridian, his body rejecting the very essence of modern cultivation. But when Chen Mo bleeds, the earth does not drink his blood, it cowers. Hidden deep within his chest is the Primordial Bloodline, an ancient, volatile power that his clan has not seen in ten thousand years, and one that requires the brutal, forbidden trials of the Forbidden Mountain to wake. To survive the hunts of rival sects and the deep-seated jealousy of his own kin, Chen Mo must plunge into a crucible of violence, hunting demonic beasts and tearing power from their carcasses. But as the dragon-tiger roar begins to echo from his soul, a terrifying truth emerges: his own family does not want a savior, they want a sacrifice. Caught between a grandfather who wants to harvest his heart and a demonic sect that fears him as the harbinger of the end times, Chen Mo races toward the final Heaven and Earth Tribulation. He is left with a devastating choice: succumb to the primordial rage and watch the world burn, or sacrifice his humanity to save the very people who broke him.

Kade was more than a thief; he was a legend who had escaped three hundred prisons across fifty countries and built a global empire of shadows. But his luck finally ran out on a cursed mountain, where he died clutching a bag of diamonds that could buy a nation three times over. Death, however, was just another lock for Kade to pick. Awakening in the dark abyss of the world of Arak, Kade finds himself bound by the "Red Death Chains" and a sentient Villain System that demands total obedience. The System wants a puppet to rebuild the fallen demonic empire of Zordon. The body he'd reincarnated in. It picked the wrong man. Before the System could even finish its first tutorial, Kade breaks the mana draining chains and slaughters a horde of orc demons using nothing but a rusted shackle and his legendary instincts. Realizing the System needs his brilliance more than he needs its guidance, Kade forces the cosmic entity into a corner, striking a deal with it. Now, armed with new abilities and his intelligence, Kade aims to rebuild the empire of Zordon both in the realm of demons and humans. Arak has had peace for a period, but it would no longer last, not while he has returned.

To save them, he broke himself. To destroy them, he will break the world. Evans was the Azure Cloud Sect’s greatest healer. He spent years mending broken bones, curing deadly poisons, and saving the lives of disciples who called him brother. He gave away his wealth, his time, and even his own health to ensure others flourished. His reward was betrayal. Accused of crimes he didn't commit by the very people he saved, Evans is stripped of his rank, his dignity, and his cultivation. With his Qi sealed and his body broken, he is thrown into the mud, cast out as a "parasite." But the sect made one fatal mistake. They didn't check his pockets. Possessing a mysterious, charred seed given to him by a dying beggar—an artifact that only blooms in the ashes of a ruined life—Evans survives.

Now, Evans walks a new path. He will cure the world of its hypocrisy, one "righteous" cultivator at a time. They called him a parasite. He will show them the plague.

"Every time I kill, a memory of my mother is erased. Every time I use this power, my own name becomes foreign to my ears." Five years after the Red Rose plague transformed Chicago into a vegetative hell, Nico Moretti survives as a monster wearing human skin. Known as Subject 01, Nico is the Patient Zero who successfully adapted to the alien seeds from Aegis Pharma. However, that power comes with a horrific price: every 1% increase in Mutation permanently strips away 1% of his memories. In the midst of the Great Bloom Cycle that has begun to destroy the remnants of civilization, Nico rescues Elena Vance, a scientist who holds the secret key to Project Catalyst. Nico is now hunted not only by the Apostles—humans who worship the plague—but also by Sovereign, the collective consciousness of the roses that seeks to take over his body completely. With the arrival of The Reapers from space and a military ready to incinerate the city, Nico must fight through thousands of Bloomers toward the Greenhouse. He must choose: lose all his memories to become a God who destroys his enemies, or die as a human who doesn't remember who he is. Blood must be spilled, mutations must bloom. Because in this world, power isn't free—it is paid for with the soul.

From Erwin Wickison I never asked to be here. One moment I was living my life, and the next I was dragged—along with millions of others—into a place ruled by a system that treats us like pieces on a board. Every Game is built to break something, whether it’s a body, a mind, or the small parts of myself I keep pretending are “good.” I’ve watched people die. I’ve watched people change. And I know I’m changing too. I just hope there’s something human left in me by the end… if there’s even an end. WARNING. This book contains smut, psychological decay, moral collapse, human intimacy twisted into survival, and a variety of horrors that do not wait for your permission before sinking into your mind. It will not hold your hand. It will not apologize. And it will not stop once you open it. If you continue, you’re choosing to step into a sequence of events designed to peel apart the comfortable assumptions you rely on to feel “safe.” Some of you will be fascinated. Some of you will be disturbed. Most of you will not remain the same. I’m not here to reassure you. I’m only here to tell you one thing: Whatever you think this is, whatever you think you know… you don’t. And once you begin, you can’t go back. — Welcome to the Games
