Knight

"If this is a world of wolves, a world where only the strong survive...then I will become one myself and fight to earn my place!" A politician's arrival, followed by one of the greatest fires the kingdom of Volicheus had ever seen. Young Alder was there at the center of it all, and came face to face with the man who orchestrated the event, and swears to take revenge on the man for his actions. Years later, and after a variety of strange incidents...a search party has been elected to defeat the mysterious organization known as the 'House of Wolves'. This book follows multiple perspectives in that pursuit. That of Alder, seeking revenge and losing his way in the process, that of Ardos the noble, attempting to emulate his ideals in a politically corrupt world, one turning towards the house's influence. That of Aurelia, encountering monsters and devils of fantastical proportions as they infiltrate cities, and working with a knight in order to find the bigger picture behind these infiltrations. And lastly that of Teresa, attempting to find secrets and connections and to reveal the identity of the enigmatic man who leads the House of Wolves. This is a story with betrayal, philosophy, complex political machinations, large scale conflicts, mysteries, and more.

"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.

Draven Kane, former Crimson Knight of Voldimore, is executed for the massacre of his own clan — a crime manufactured by Maren, the clan healer who believed she was saving him. Reborn through the Blood God System, an ancient imprisoned entity sealed inside the Kalu bloodline for six generations, Draven discovers that every enemy he absorbs makes him permanently stronger. But the system is not his. Shikakiro, an ageless architect who has been dismantling bloodlines for thirty years, has partial access to everything Draven feeds it through a hidden sigil placed without his knowledge. As Draven fights to grow faster than Shikakiro can harvest, manage a Corruption threshold that risks silencing his dead clan’s voices forever, and navigate a city that has been publicly storied against him, he returns to Voldimore with one question that matters more to him than revenge. Did Elara choose to believe the frame Maren built around him — or was she simply handed a weapon and pointed? The answer to that question will determine whether the man who came back from the execution ground still exists, or whether what the Blood God System is making him has already replaced him entirely.

Suddenly appearing in a different world, it looks like I got caught up in a Hero Summoning. And of course, I’m not the Hero, but it’s another guy……and while being very cautious and scared of the cliche-like development, I was thrown into the maelstrom of war……or not. The Demon Lord? It was defeated a thousand years ago. Hero? He’s just the main actor in a festival. Nobles? They’re kindly taking care of us. The Demon Race? They have good relationships with Humans. Wars? It’s already 800 years since the last one. Monsters? The Guild and Order of Knight are taking care of them. Return to Earth? It is eventually No-Risk. What I’m planning after being caught up into this? I’m gonna enjoy the life in a different world as much as I want to, go on a cultural exchange and sightseeing, and after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years……I shall go home safely. The other world was――at Peace. A kind world where the three races, the Demon Realm’s Demons, the God Realm’s Gods, the Human Realm’s Humans, they are kind neighbors to each other, with everyone living a peaceful and fulfilling life. But although I wished to peacefully spend a year before my return, for some reason, the heavyweights of this world keeps gathering around me....

In the foreboding realm of Vesperia, Daniel Solace, a valiant combatant, emerges as the protagonist within the Order of the Church. This militaristic organization, akin to a court order, operates under the Holy Father and 14 royal families, each aligned with a knight of the White Order. Their purpose is twofold: to prevent the escape of the seven deadly sins and thwart the agents of the apocalypse—the ominous Four Horsemen—intent on unraveling life itself. As Daniel delves into his role within the Church, the sacred halls become a battleground for the interplay between faith and darkness. The Chosen Blades, including Daniel, embark on perilous quests to retrieve relics hidden within the churches—artifacts echoing forgotten heroes and cataclysmic events. These relics hold the key to shaping destinies and standing against the malevolent influence of the looming apocalypse. However, not all within the Church's ranks are righteous. Hidden cults and covens exploit the vulnerability of the faithful, weaving a sinister tapestry that threatens the delicate balance between hope and forbidden knowledge. Unholy abominations, born from the twisted sorcery conducted within the sacred walls, further challenge Daniel and his comrades as they navigate the treacherous paths set before them. In Vesperia, Daniel Solace's journey unfolds against the backdrop of a looming apocalypse, where the Church's military might, the enigmatic relics, and the Chosen Blades become the last line of defense against the impending doom orchestrated by the Four Horsemen and the looming specter of the seven deadly sins.

🏆 ["Sliver Medal" in System Category of "Meganovel Annual Writing Contest 2022"] 🏆 ‘Perhaps being stuck in a game isn’t so bad!’, Kyle thought moments before he was mistaken for a hidden boss by a rather dim, but quite powerful knight. That was the moment he learned what immediate regret meant. Kyle was an ordinary student at an insignificant university. Being the pinnacle of ‘average’, his life was as mundane as it could get, that is, until he found himself unable to log out of the full dive game that had recently released. Life in a game wasn’t too bad, that is if one’s not hunted day and night by the players, who mistook him for a special hidden boss with near human level A.I. And no amount of trying to convince them that he was, in fact, human helped. He survived a while until a knight kicked him though a boss door in a dungeon. Usually, facing a lich at such a low level would be a death sentence. By all means, it should have been. But lady luck smiled on him for once in his absolutely mundane life, and he found himself in the possession of said lich. About as confused as he can get, Kyle’s new life took a rather awkward and bizarre turn. And as such, his life of adventure fille with colourful and quirky characters, ferocious monsters and downright terrifying encounters began!

I woke up to find myself a weakling vampire with only 10 health points, and the Holy Light Knight Order was right outside to purify me! In my despair, the 【Proficiency System】activated—so long as I live, everything is grindable! To survive, I did anything! While other vampires were hunting maidens, I was slaughtering a hundred thousand rats in the sewer, my 【Bite】skill maxed out, awakening the talent 【Life Drain】! Holy Light burns painfully? I treated myself like the Monkey King's flesh and braved the Holy Light, my 【Holy Light Resistance】maxed out, awakening the talent 【Holy Light Affinity MAX】, and directly took a Holy Light bath in the church! They thought I was an elegant noble, but what I was actually thinking was, "This sword strike will probably only take 0.001% of my health—too risky, I must kill him instantly!" They called me the "Nighttime Scourge" because I targeted only the most heinous scoundrels, after all, the proficiency points from "Sinful Blood" were simply too generous! Years later, the Abyssal Demon God descended, and the gods fell. In the despair of the entire world, I brushed off the dust from my tailcoat and looked at my blood bar that had grown to an uncountable length. "You... can break my defense?"
