Monster

In the darkest corners of Marseille, where hope sinks faster than a rusted anchor, an overdose should have been the end for Jean Valéry. But for this broken Navy veteran, death was only a doorway. He awoke with another soul burning within him—that of the Black Sea Alchemist, the failed guardian of Atlantis, whispering of ancient magic and the vengeance of the deep. Every corner of the Old Port is now his laboratory, every drop of polluted saltwater an ingredient for deadly potions and poisons. Fractured memories guide him, while a raw and dangerous alchemical power demands release. But Marseille is not only a haven for crime bosses. Deep within its murky waters, an ancient power has awakened, demanding accountability for the failures of his past reincarnations. To save the city, he must first seize it from the grip of the underworld. To atone for the sins of the past, he must become a monster in the present. This is not a story about the rise of a hero. This is a story of transmutation—how a broken man is melted down in the crucible of magic, malice, and destiny. The question isn't whether he will survive, but what he will become afterward: an unbeatable crime king, or a protector damned by the sea?

He dreams of joining the Warrior Legion, but his body rejects Aether completely. His life changes in a single night when mysterious parasitic creatures called "The Spores" descend. One tries to take over his brain, but Eilan stops it—only to discover the parasite has taken control of his right hand, creating a being with two minds in one body: Veltis. As Eilan learns to coexist with his inner parasite, he discovers the world isn't what it seems. Servina Lux, the exiled emperor's daughter, leads a secret revolution behind a mask. The Great Naked Ones emerge from nowhere. And Shadow Emperor Vandal Grim plans "The Extermination Protocol"—destroying half of humanity to save the planet. As corrupted Aether spreads and humans transform into monsters, Eilan faces an existential question: Are the parasites the real enemy, or are humans themselves? Between loyalty and friendship, between survival and humanity, Eilan must choose his fate: become a monster that saves the world, or a human that destroys it. "The veil rises... and the world waits."

“Look at him. Completely useless.” Whispers spread like poison as students mocked Asta. He stood alone before the crystal ball,his palms open, waiting for his family’s legendary flame. Nothing came. “No spark. Not even rookie fire. What a joke.” Laughter rang out. “I heard he killed his mother, like, he literally ate his way out from his mothers womb like a monster!” Asta trembled. “It’s not true… I saw the man in the black cloak…” The Empress rose,her eyes cold. “You worm. No flame. No worth. Get out of my sight you disgust me.” Asta walked away through jeers, to the labor pits. An old worker whispered. “They’re blind. I see the Legendary Dragon Flame in you...sleeping deep.” Asta stared at his palm. A dark smile grew. If the old man was right… he wasn’t weak. He was the strongest. When the Dragon Flame wakes, those who laughed will kneel in ashes. Did he awaken it? Did he take revenge? Dive into the fantasy to find out.

In the world of Elarion, a person's fate is decided at birth. Everyone possesses an Aether Heart—the source of their talent, status, and future. Those born with powerful hearts are destined to become rulers, while those without one are treated as less than servants. Akseli Vainio was born without an Aether Heart. As the last heir of the once-glorious Vainio Clan, he became the family's greatest disgrace.

In a world where magic is the ultimate corporate currency, one man's ability to bend probability could either save the city—or burn it to the ground.

In the neon-drenched streets of New Eden, where corporate empires are built on ancient magic and reality bends to those who control it, Alex's newfound abilities make him the most valuable—and hunted—man alive.

Now, as a malevolent cabal called the Architects emerges to exploit his powers and collapse all probability into one predetermined fate, Alex faces an impossible choice: trust the woman who betrayed him to save humanity's free will, or embrace absolute control and become the monster everyone fears.

The fate of New Eden hangs in the balance. And the probability of survival? Impossible to calculate.
