Monster

The apocalypse arrives. Earth lies in ruins. But Maxwell Sullivan survives, navigating hell for one hundred years only to see the world end. He failed. Yet Fate laughs at him—throwing him back to zero hour, to the day all the chaos began! With a perfect memory of one hundred years of relentless warfare, every hidden relic's location, every monster's weakness, and every concealed betrayal is now within his grasp. Cold, cruel, and merciless, Maxwell is no longer the failed hero. He is the Absolute King who will plunder the future, slap the faces of the false "heroes" who once stepped on him, and build an empire from the ruins. Beside him stands Viana Enderson, the almost shattered princess, who now becomes his loyal right hand, shield, and brain. Ancient tribes, greedy conglomerates, even cross-dimensional entities—nothing can stop the King's domination. The apocalypse is merely a playground for the King of Time. Prepare to witness the most absolute conquest, where the future is his and the entire universe will kneel beneath the steel throne of a man who stepped forth from destruction!

WARNING: INTENSE THEMES When Greg opened his eyes in a strange bed in a world not his own, he expected confusion, not a glowing screen that labeled him as a "Host." But the system that bound itself to him wasn't one of swords, spells, or cultivation—it was something far more dangerous. The Desire System rewards every choice made. Each act of connection, every bond formed, every line crossed earns Greg "desire points"—points that can heal wounds, unlock powers, and strengthen his body. But not all missions are equal. The more dangerous and forbidden the act, the higher the reward from the system. When even looking into the healer's eyes is labeled "average danger," Greg realizes this isn't just a game. Each mission tests not only his performance but also his resolve. Will he use the system to grow stronger, or will he lose himself in the process? Caught between survival, confusion, and difficult choices, Greg must walk the fine line between man and monster in a world where temptation can be the most dangerous weakness of all.

In a modern world draped in the illusion of normalcy, secrets crawl beneath the surface. Cities bustle with unaware citizens, blind to the existence of the gifted, warriors, healers, mages, and monster hunters, born to protect a fragile balance between reality and chaos. Among them lies one boy, invisible to destiny… until destiny calls his name. Ridiculed, discarded, and cast aside, 17-year-old Kael Ardyn is a nobody with no spark of magic or strength. But when he saves an old beggar from thugs, Kael is taken in by the man, who reveals himself to be a forgotten legend of the ancient world. Under his brutal mentorship, Kael is reshaped, body and soul, into something the world has never seen: a martial-arts prodigy with forbidden medical mastery. As monsters tear through cities, noble families scheme, and powerful organizations hunt the reborn legend, Kael finds himself at the center of a hidden war, a war he might just be born to end. But power comes with a price. Can he uncover his true lineage before it consumes him? Or is he merely a pawn in a game older than time?

In the underworld of ruthless power and unforgiving loyalty, I made an oath that would bind me for life—a blood oath sealed by vengeance, desire, and a woman who became my most dangerous weakness. They call me a monster, a king in a kingdom built on violence and fear. But I never asked for this life. I only wanted to survive. Then she walked into my world—fiery, untamed, and brimming with secrets. Our bond was meant to be temporary. A flash marriage. A simple alliance in a world where trust is a currency no one dares to spend. But with her, everything changed. The Mafia doesn’t forgive, and neither do I. She’ll learn that soon enough as I drag her through a storm of betrayal, bloodshed, and passion she never expected. Our marriage may have been a lie, but my hunger for her is very real. Now, we’re both trapped by an oath we can't escape, each step we take pulling us deeper into a world that only one of us will survive. And in the end, the savage honor I live by might just be the death of us both.

Dying a tragic death after being betrayed and used as a mere tool, the young man swore that he would never live for anyone else again if he were ever given a second chance. Yet, fate threw his soul into the body of Aldric—an illegitimate son of a king, who had been slaughtered at the bottom of the Forbidden Forest's ravine by his very own biological father. On the brink of death for the umpteenth time, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed inside his head: [Egoist System Activated]. This mysterious system did not require a holy hero. Instead, his power points surged drastically every time he made a selfish and ruthless decision. Forged by the darkness of the cursed forest, he began to crawl his way back up with a black sword in hand, preparing to tear down the royal throne built upon demonic sacrificial rituals. He did not return to become a savior for this rotten world. He came to seize the highest throne, and to become a monster far more terrifying than the rulers before him. "For the deepest wounds never give birth to a hero."

The sky split apart. A mysterious System descended. The world turned into hell. Mutant zombies, ancient monsters, and tyrant Lords hunt the remaining humans. Civilization collapses, hunger spreads everywhere, and hope is nearly extinct. Yet in the middle of the apocalypse, one man rises. Axel. While others struggle merely to survive, Axel awakens a forbidden talent: [1000x Critical Chance]. One tree cut down… becomes a forest. One monster slain… becomes a mountain of resources. One fortress built… becomes an impregnable city. The ruined world becomes the foundation of his empire. Together with Abby, a strategic genius with a heart as cold as steel, Axel begins building something greater than a mere shelter. An Absolute Fortress. An empire rising from the ashes of the apocalypse. The tyrant Lords will fall. Monsters from other worlds will be harvested. Even the Ruler of the System will be challenged. Because in this chaotic world, only one law remains: Everything Axel touches… becomes 1000 times deadlier. And this time, he doesn't just want to survive. He wants to rule the world.

"This world doesn't need a hero. A broken world just needs a ruler crueler than any monster out there." Jonathan was left bleeding out on the wet asphalt. His fiancée walked away arm-in-arm with a rich boss, right as the city sky ripped open and monsters rained down to swallow the streets. Just as his breath was fading, a cold, mechanical voice buzzed in his head: [Critical Condition. Initiating Alpha Evolution System Synchronization.] Instead of dying, Jonathan got back up. Saving the world? He couldn't care less. He used the system for one thing only: hunting. From the street thugs who stomped on his head, corrupt military generals acting tough, to giant apocalyptic monsters—he butchered them all. He drained their energy to evolve. Now, so-called 'Gods' from other dimensions are descending to Earth because they feel threatened. They think Jonathan is just a street rat who got lucky with a cheat. Let them come. Jonathan only sees them as one thing: dinner for his next evolution.

As kingdoms burn and old powers stir, Blood of the Dragon is a dark fantasy tale of fate, identity, and the terrifying cost of becoming legend.
