Romantic Beautiful Mermaid

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.

The CEO of the Mercer Group steps out, ignores the fake heir, and bows deeply at Dane's feet. "Welcome, Master Mercer."

[!]: SYSTEM START: Ancestral Resonance Cultivation Ascension Nexus (ARCAN) [!]: Genre: [Hunter System] x [Weak-to-Strong] x [Cultivation] [!]: Objective: Survive the Gate. Sow the Seeds. Build the Empire. --- Rome D'Angelo is a One-Star Hunter with twenty-one essence points, thirty thousand dollars in debt, and a survival instinct that borders on suicidal. His life is a simple, three-step cycle: 1. Fight monsters far above his pay grade to keep the lights on. 2. Nearly die in the process. 3. Get patched up by Kiona Tsukimori, a Three-Star healer way too talented to be wasting her mana on him. She thinks he’s an idiot with a death wish. He thinks she’s the most beautiful woman who’s ever yelled at him. It’s a match made in whatever circle of hell spits out One-Star dungeons. But when a routine raid turns into a Double Dungeon slaughter, Rome makes the ultimate gamble: he sacrifices his arm to ensure Kiona’s escape. He expected death. Instead, he got a voice in his head. [ SYSTEM INITIALIZED. CLASS: SOWER ] Rome has awakened a power that defies the laws of the Hunter world. He doesn’t just level up by hoarding strength; he ascends by cultivating it in others. The catch? His growth is tied to forging deep bonds with "S.E.E.D.S"— people with latent, world-shattering potential. And his first compatible target is the very healer who just watched him die. Now, every date is a quest, every touch is cultivation, and every shared heartbeat brings them closer to godhood. Rome just wanted to pay his sister’s tuition. Now he has to survive monsters, guild politics, and a harem of dangerous women who might just be the death—or the making—of him.

In a world that demands perfection, only the broken can cut through fate. On the eve of his historic ascension, Li Xuan was the undisputed crown jewel of the Azure Sky Sect. A peerless genius destined to rule the firmament. But supreme talent breeds venomous jealousy. Hours before he could condense his legendary Pristine Jade Core, he was brutally drugged and betrayed. His sworn brother wielded the blade, his beautiful fiancé orchestrated the trap, and together, they systematically smashed his jade dantian into ten thousand glittering, useless pieces. Stabbed through his spiritual foundation, stripped of his core, and left to die in the bone-chilling mud of the Abyssal Wasteland, Li Xuan was labeled a "cripple." A broken mirror forever unfit for the Dao. But his enemies made one fatal mistake: they left the shards inside his soul. Driven by an absolute, terrifying will for vengeance, Li Xuan refuses to heal. Instead, he does the unthinkable he awakens the jagged, razor-sharp fragments floating in his ruined body. Where others see absolute destruction, Li Xuan forges a forbidden new path: Fractured Ascension. A perfect mirror can only reflect the world, but a shattered mirror cuts it to pieces. Each jagged fragment of his broken soul becomes a lethal weapon hungry to devour heaven’s Qi, twist natural laws, and reflect every past humiliation back tenfold. Armed with a hurricane of broken glass tearing through his veins and an unbreakable will, the boy they discarded rises from the pits. No mercy. No negotiation. Those who broke his foundation to keep him on his knees will watch him ascend using the very shards they left in the dirt. “You thought you destroyed my future? You merely unleashed my edge.”

But instead of simply enjoying the fantasy world he had always dreamed of, he discovered that his mysterious system constantly glitched because he had accidentally inherited the blessings of two goddesses: the Goddess of Lust and the Goddess of Steel. Now trapped in a world filled with monsters, dungeons, beautiful heroines, ruthless enemies, and deadly quests, Adams must rise to the top and complete the mission entrusted to him by the two goddesses in exchange for an unimaginable reward.
