I Became The Pope, Now What?

Life became a contest of predator and prey when I, Ella Quinn opened my eyes inside of the survival novel I bought for research purposes. The place was rather dreadful to visualize with my own eyes. Ogres, monsters and creatures, huge as a bear I had to survive through all these. But in order to escape from here I needed help from the characters of the novel. My journey began with finding them out one by one. However something didn't sit right about that peculiar world until all of us discovered the hidden truth behind our surroundings.

“In a world ruled by monsters, the weak don’t die, they’re forgotten.” I was invisible unless they needed someone to humiliate. They broke my bones. The tyrants of Aegis killed my only friend. But that day, when my blood touched the floor, something inside me awakened. A voice. A system. A power that whispered: “Adapt. Survive. Ascend.” Now I’m not the prey anymore. I’m the beginning of something they can’t control. The government thinks they own the monsters. The hunters think they own the city. Worse, the bullies at Aegis Academy think they have all the power. Big fishes in little ponds.  They are wrong. I will rise to the top, I'll overturn the hierarchy, failures will become alphas. I’ll bring anarchy upon them because I can. Because the real monster… is learning to hunt back. Watch them learn what Apex truly means.

My name is Zane, and I am just a poor boy from the Mainland slums. To keep my little sister, Kemi, alive, I trusted the richest magic guild in the city. I thought they were going to cure her sickness. Instead, they used me. They strapped my sister to a machine to tear a legendary power source called the Calamity Core straight out of her chest. When I tried to save her, they broke my bones and left me to die on a freezing hospital floor. But I didn't die. A blue digital screen popped up in front of my eyes, granting me a forbidden power: sovereign necromancy. Now, every monster I kill and every corrupt billionaire I crush must stand up and join my shadow army. The rich think they own this city behind their high concrete walls. But I am coming for them with an army of the dead, and I will make every single elite bleed for what they did to my family.

“Sign it, Edward.” Edward Cole stared at the divorce papers in his wife's trembling hand. Three years ago, he took the fall for her brother's crime. Three years ago, he walked into Hell Prison so her family could stay free. Three years ago, he sacrificed everything—his freedom, his reputation, and his future—for the woman he loved. Now she looked at him with disgust. “You're an ex-convict,” she said coldly. “You don't deserve to stand beside me anymore.” Her words shattered what remained of his heart. While he suffered in prison, she became a business queen. What she never knew was that every contract, every opportunity, and every miracle that built her empire came from him. From the shadows, he protected her, loved her, and gave her everything. Yet when he finally returned, all he received was betrayal. Her family mocked him. Society despised him. Everyone believed Edward Cole was nothing but worthless trash. Until one phone call changed everything. “Lord Zeus, shall we reveal your identity?” The world's most powerful billionaires bowed their heads. Kings waited for his orders. Entire nations trembled at his name. The man they abandoned was Zeus—the hidden ruler of Apex of the Stars. And now, those who broke his heart would learn the price of betrayal.

Chang San was just an ordinary young man in his Clan. But a big tragedy happened in his life. The death of his parents became a turning point in his life... "I will repay you all" Can he? LIKES, CRITICISM AND SUGGESTIONS ARE PLEASED, GOOD BLESSINGS

A hero must be compassionate, selfless and courageous. But that isn't all. Because a hero must also be powerful. In this world, power is everything. Strength decides who gets to save lives and who's left with community service. That’s why I was nothing — a rank 50 E-Class reject, skating through the streets, saving what little I could while the real heroes battled gods and monsters. Then one day, I died. Almost. Dragged into the abyss, I was given a second chance: the Forever Core. An armor that evolves. A system that never stops adapting. Every battle, every hit, every mistake, I come back stronger. Now, the monsters that once crushed me can’t kill me the same way twice. I must adapt. Evolve. I must grow stronger and fight harder. Because humanity is worth fighting for. Even if I have to burn every villain alive to prove it.

What would happen if you got a book that would tell the fate of your life until your death? Of course, we will try to change that fate. Lin Feng changed his destiny from a mortal to a god with the Book of Life and Death. But unfortunately, when Lin Feng entered the realm of the gods, an absolutely terrifying crisis occurred. “No matter how secretive the enemy's schemes and monstrous plans of the ancient gods are, I am the only one who will know the future developments! With the book of life and death, whatever choice I make right now, will affect the future!"

Spencer Ford was a ghost in his own life, overlooked, underestimated, forgotten. Until the day death reached for him… and missed. Surviving a fatal accident grants him a power that shouldn’t exist, the God of War Physique, an instinctive mastery of martial arts that experts spend decades to achieve. But fate isn’t done with him. A second brush with death awakens something even rarer, a divine healing gift capable of rewriting life and death itself. Now the world that once ignored him is desperate to claim him. Or kill him. Martial clans want to control him. Medical guilds want to dissect him. A shadowy organization wants his powers erased. From nobody to legend, Spencer must choose what he stands for, and who he becomes. In a world where everyone can awaken a power he became the one they were never prepared for.

Matthew stood there, trying to keep his emotions in check. "I did everything I could for you, Rachel. I sacrificed so much—" She cut him off with a bitter laugh. "Sacrificed? Please, you barely managed to keep up with my lifestyle. I had men lined up, rich, powerful men, who would’ve given me the world. And I turned them down for you. What a joke." Matthew’s hands clenched into fists at his sides. "I loved you, Rachel. I thought we were building a life together." Rachel smirked as she zipped up her designer bag. "Love doesn’t pay the bills, Matthew. Love doesn’t buy the things I want. And frankly, you just couldn’t keep up. So, I’m moving on—to someone who can." As she headed toward the door, she paused to deliver one final blow. "You’ll never be more than what you are right now—a pathetic, broke man with nothing to offer. Enjoy your sad little life, Matthew. I know I will." Matthew Donovan has always been underestimated. Betrayed by those closest to him and left with nothing, he discovers that his family’s exile is over, and he is the heir to a vast business empire. As Matthew steps into a life of luxury and influence, he faces new challenges, including a vengeful ex-girlfriend, her scheming brother, and a world of deceitful elites. But when a bomb explodes at a high-profile party meant to announce his return, Matthew realizes that his journey to reclaim his family's legacy is fraught with danger. With secrets unfolding and enemies lurking in the shadows, Matthew must navigate treacherous waters to protect what is his and uncover the truth behind the attack.
