Single Dad

"You used to say a piece of bread was worth more than my life, didn't you? Well, look at me now. I have everything, yet I would rather feed this to my guard dog than toss it to traitors like you. The world has changed, Cindy. In my world, you are not even worth the dust on my shoes." The apocalypse was not the end of everything. It was the beginning of the reckoning of sins. When the black meteor Khamul crashed into the continent of Eldoria, the world transformed into a living hell overnight. Axel Edward was betrayed by his girlfriend for a single piece of moldy bread and thrown into a horde of zombies to die. However, death instead awakened a miracle: the 100x Rebate System. The rule was simple. Give any resource to a woman chosen by the system, and receive a return up to a thousand times over in god-tier quality! Give away a sip of leftover water? Axel received an entire warehouse of pure mineral water. Give away a rusty kitchen knife? Axel received a steel-shattering laser vibration sword. Offer basic shelter? Axel received an invincible divine fortress. While the rest of the world shivered and starved in the dark, Axel was busy figuring out how to finish his fresh Wagyu beef and taking hot baths inside his grand palace. Alongside the goddesses who had sworn absolute loyalty to him, Axel would ascend to the highest throne. To those who betrayed him: prepare to beg for death. To the ruined world: bow down and worship your new ruler.

She stole his mother Eleanor’s final masterpiece—a painting called “The Unbroken”—burned the original, and claimed the work as her own, building an art empire on the lie.

As old loyalties resurface and enemies close in, Dominic must decide: will he become the monster Vivienne created, or will he prove his mother’s belief—that some things remain unbroken, no matter how the world tries to shatter them?

For twenty-five years, Benedict Vandross gave everything to the Ashcroft family. He sacrificed his dreams to build their billion-dollar empire, worked tirelessly to protect their legacy, and loved them as if they were his own. Yet to them, he was only the quiet young man who never complained, never refused, and never asked for anything in return. Then the family's "long-lost heir" finally comes home. Overnight, Benedict is cast aside. The father he admired no longer looks his way. The mother who unknowingly cherished him is told to forget him. The sister he protected turns against him. Even the woman who promised to spend her life with him chooses the newly returned heir instead. Humiliated, betrayed, and left with nothing, Benedict walks away without a single word.

As old secrets buried for decades begin to surface, a ruthless conspiracy threatens to destroy the empire from within. The "heir" they welcomed may be nothing more than a carefully placed pawn, while the son they threw away becomes the only man capable of saving everything they hold dear. When the truth is finally revealed, will regret be enough to mend a family that buried its own heir? Or will the man they never valued choose to let their empire fall? Sometimes the greatest betrayal isn't losing your family-- it's discovering they never knew who you truly were.

In the Nine-Fold Abyss-Heaven, destiny is a game rigged by the powerful. Ten years ago, a ruthless transmigrator named Victor claimed the "Sovereign System," ascending to godhood by consuming the luck and souls of everyone in his path. To the cosmos, he is a righteous savior. To those beneath his boot, he is an inescapable nightmare. When Julian transmigrates into the body of a discarded, talentless mining slave, Victor instantly flags him as a cosmic threat. Instead of granting a quick death, Victor inflicts absolute suppression—slashing Julian’s experience gains by 90%, shackling his soul, and publicly subjecting him to suffocating humiliation. To the world, Julian is a broken, unranked insect destined to crawl in the toxic spirit-ash. But Victor’s arrogance blinds him to the true nature of Julian’s interface: The Ashen Balance. Unlike standard systems, Julian cannot level up through easy victories or safe cultivation. His cheat triggers only at death’s door, converting raw agony, suffocating despair, and cold fury into irreversible Defiance Attributes. Forced to cultivate backward by strengthening his mortal flesh against the very laws of heaven, Julian turns his suffering into an unyielding weapon. From the suffocating depths of the slave mines to the grand, mocking colosseums of the higher realms, Julian undergoes a grueling, weak-to-strong ascension. He will bleed for every single attribute point, rally the broken outcasts of the realms, and systematically dismantle the False Hero’s empire. Victor stole the heavens, but Julian will burn them down to pay the debt.
