I Raised An Obsessive Servant

I was the last one left, I watched as humanity's greed took over, as brothers killed brothers and fathers turned on sons. I watched humanity end and with nothing left to live for, I ended my life. Now I'm back to a month before the apocalypse, I've been given a second chance and I will not waste it. I'll prevent the death of those I love and make sure humanity survives. If the world can't control itself, then I'll conquer it and lead us to survival.

I hated being locked up like a damsel in distress. Like I was some princess that needed constant protection, but deep down I was grateful. I was still struggling to summon my powers, so if I was attacked alone I would be defenseless. I understood why Valerian wanted me to stay confined within the walls of our home since there was a protection spell suffocating the entire atmosphere that surrounded it. But I was so bored. Valerian was not there to take me out and keep me occupied with his cocky smiles and quirky comments. The only thing I could think to do to pass the time was to take a stroll around the castle grounds. I exited out into the courtyard and walked past the beautiful wooden benches and vibrant trees. Roses of every colour confiscated the grounds and it was like I was walking through a rainbow. My fingertips caressed the petals and I inhaled the sweet scent of their exquisiteness as I walked through the trails. I was so mesmerized by the area that I didn’t realize where I was going. I gasped as I reached for the next rose in my path, and it crumbled from my touch. The rest of the walkway was filled with black and decayed roses that tumbled to the ground like ash from a horrible wildfire. My frightened eyes glared out into the distance as I realized the dead flowers led to a shadowy tunnel made from black brick. A sign barely dangling from a broken chain at the top of the entrance read ‘dungeon.’ My body cringed at the sight. This was the dark side of Valerian that I knew and wanted to avoid as much as possible.

They hacked the human mind. They bent the world to their will. But they didn’t account for the boy inside the machine. Deep beneath the surface of the world, far from law and light, the Parallax Syndicate built The Oyster—a laboratory where thought could be weaponized, where obedience could be programmed, and where free will became a design flaw. From this hidden fortress, four scientists reshaped society, one mind at a time. Nations obeyed. Wars vanished. Peace reigned—by force. Their system was flawless. Their influence—undetected, undeniable. And their legacy? A boy born within their machine. Heir to their empire, molded by their intellect, trained to uphold their command. But beneath the precision they instilled, a question took root—What if humanity was meant to choose? Raised in the heart of this system, Kael Draven was meant to inherit it all. Trained by his father, Dr. Aurex Draven, Kael knew every code, every algorithm, every flaw. But unlike them, Kael believed in something dangerous: freedom. Now, with the world asleep under the Syndicate’s spell, Kael is the only one who can wake it. Armed with the Syndicate’s deepest secrets and haunted by the memories they tried to erase, he’ll spark a rebellion from within. The mind was their weapon. Kael will make it their undoing.

Kim Do-hyun was just another potato in the crowd—an anxious college nobody waiting to fail the Awakening Program. But when the portal swallowed him, his identity shattered, and a new life took root. Now he is Han Tae-yang: a street fighter, failed streamer, and accidental legend who spent a decade trapped in Divine Tower of Gods, the cruelest game ever made. Everyone else quit. He climbed fifty floors alone. And then the game became reality. Relics bleed into the real world. Monsters walk in daylight. Governments scramble, corps rise, guilds rise, and hunters kill for scraps. Yet through chaos, one name spreads like wildfire: Loner. With sarcasm sharper than any blade, a ghost bride as his sister’s familiar, and a system that can copy powers, Tae-yang dismantles the new world one relic at a time. While others beg for safety or riches, he plots in the shadows—because for him, survival isn’t enough. He’ll break the tower. He’ll burn the system. And he’ll drag the gods themselves down with him. Action-packed. Darkly hilarious. Brutally clever. If Solo Leveling married Super Gene and raised a snarky delinquent kid, this is it.

Bryan, a reckless youth in modern-day Chicago, hates werewolves for taking his mother and brother. Raised a man called Pa. Clever, he survives as a hired hunter, unaware that he carries the blood of the most feared Alpha — Lord Amark, his father. When captured by Owen, his mother’s brother and ruthless hunter leader, Bryan is forced to work under Mayer, Owen’s sharp and disciplined second. Their reluctant partnership grows as Bryan’s hidden power begins to surface. Meanwhile, Amark’s brother, Pheles, reveals that Bryan’s twin, Bruno, is alive. The brothers reunite with rivalry and pride, but are bound by blood as Amark returns. After Pa. Clever’s death, Bryan’s grief triggers his first full transformation, terrifying friend and foe alike. The climax comes when Amark confronts his sons. Bryan and Bruno fight him, but in his final moments Amark reveals mercy, not rage. With Mayer’s shot, he falls, blessing his children before dying at peace. Pheles becomes Alpha, with Bruno and Bryan as Betas, and Chicago finds fragile calm. But as the wolves mourn, a mysterious howl pierces the night — warning that the story is far from over.

My peaceful short life had been quickly cut off by a band of bandits that had raided my village, killing my father and capturing my mother. The bandit leader took a fancy to me and decided to make me one of them because of my face, for reasons unknown to me, but this was only the start of my journey. The more I grew up the more I realized that I had no talent, I was as ordinary as I could be, with no inherited memories, no old masters to help me improve my talent, no legacies left behind, no locked bloodlines that would burst into activity when I was in danger. But I still had something that most people didn't have. A stubbornness that many wouldn't possess, the stubbornness and sense of danger that I got for life after I saw my father die in front of me. And with that, I shall predate upon those that are more talented than me. I shall walk forward and reach the apex of the world, not because I want to protect anyone, but because that's simply what I want to do! Regardless of the methods that I have to use or the people that I have to push out of my way!

Five years ago, I was the "worthless" foster son who had taken the fall for a crime I never committed. I went to prison for my brother's future, thinking that my family would be there to care for my wife. I was wrong. While I rotted away in Blackgate Prison, my inheritance had been stolen: they had wiped off my existence and treated my wife as a slave. They thought I would die in there. But the fate had different plans. In the darkest cell, I met with a mysterious master. I did not just survive; I was reborn. I learned the Nine Heavens Medical Art and activated the Sovereign Martial Body. I healed warlords and crippled assassins in a single touch. Now the prison gates are open. I am no longer the submissive orphan. I am a Dragon King. To my foster family celebrating my misery: Prepare your coffins. To all those billionaires trying to touch my wife: Prepare to lose your hands. I will save lives with my left hand and destroy my enemies with my right hand. The King is out, and debts must be repaid in blood.

I am Kava, an ordinary person as usual. I'm not the chosen person by the system. One day, I got a lot of money. I went to a cafe to celebrate with my sister, Mika. It was then that we came under attack from a chosen system user. I lost the fight and my sister was taken away. I found a Florine system bracelet and I put it on. However, that's not a combat type system and I wasn't chosen. Even the system guide insulted me. What do I have to do to be able to use the system?

This story follows the beginning of Soultaker, a raw and dark story about the character's growth and journey in defending the city he was raised in and ultimately, the origins of a dark, legendary figure.

"Congratulations, my Heir," a mysterious figure declared, "you have proven your worth, and you're now the Heir to the God of Healing and Medicine, Elandor!" Suddenly, I found myself in excruciating pain, hanging on the edge of a hill. The figure's words barely registered, and I felt like I was forgetting something crucial. Before I could make sense of it all, I blinked, and the pain was gone. My wounds had vanished, replaced by a newfound strength. There, around my neck, hung a gemstone amulet. I gasped as the amulet shone, flooding my mind with knowledge. "In the realm of healing, I'm the ultimate arbiter of life and death. As Elandor's heir, I command over ailments and the frailty of life. I am the embodiment of healing's power and authority." As memories flooded back, I realized why I was here. Darius Blackthorn, that treacherous scoundrel, had thrown me down this hill. "I won't let you get away with this. I'll have my revenge for all the pain you caused me. I'll show those Rossi family snobs who mocked me for being poor and treated me like a live-in servant. You'll regret ever looking down on me. I'm a god's heir, and you will pay for every bit of suffering you put me through." Fueled by rage, I stood there, determined to make them all pay.
