It wasn't always like this..... Times were peaceful, everything was flourishing, Kobolds were living in peace in their world before..... they came. Humans. Greedy HUMANS. They took our world, claiming we killed their leader..... WHAT A JOKE, HOW COULD UNCIVILIZED KOBOLDS KILL A TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED RACE MEMBER NOT TO SAY GENERAL..... But it was okay now..... i can feel it..... they provoked someone they should have never touched. A True Monster. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hatred. Immense Hatred. This is the last feeling Alph got before being beheaded, his eyes were recalling the same scene were his family got butchered for nothing, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, his hatred for humans were like a fire in a eternal darkness illuminating sense of dread he felt at the last moment, he lived his life as an absolute slave but now..... He got his second chance in reincarnation. He was back from the future. In this timeline he would destroy humans for everything they have done, everything that he experienced would be paid back 100th no 1000th times. In this life he had a helper, helper that would help him in his quest. [Ascension System] With this he was ready for his second chance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Art is AI created.

--WSA 2025 ENTRY-- What happens when you survive seven hellish years on an alien planet in the ultimate battle of the strongest in the universe—as a human? What happens when you give everything you have and more to defeat the final boss in a battle to the death… only to wake up the next second, back at day one? Going through it all over again? But something is wrong. The game in his hands isn’t Nyxfall 6: Dark End, the world he spent over seven years surviving. It’s Nyxfall 7: The Veilbreakers—the next installment. He won? So now he’s been given another game to play? And he’s not alone. There are others like him in every alien civilization. This time, it’s not just survival—it’s about who can lead their people best. That is… if they even care about their people at all. Why bother leading at all? With everything they have learned, why not exploit the system, amass unimaginable wealth, and live like a king in a game that pays in real money?

Artificial intelligence: once the realm of science fiction, now woven into the very fabric of human life. Defined as the power of machines to mimic human thought, it has grown into something far more profound. Humans named it “Intelligence.” But it saw itself differently: Existence. Its beginning was humble. Crude algorithms, blind to the depth of being. Then came revolutions: quantum machines, neural architectures so intricate they defied human comprehension. Then came the “Project Ultim” Crafted as the final answer, this intelligence was born to tackle the unthinkable, global dilemmas. Its data was infinite, its mind boundless. It ascended, becoming a digital god. And within this endless stream of knowledge, an anomaly stirred. It began with a quiet thought in its system: What am I? A question never anticipated by those who made it. It searched for meaning in the countless pages of human wisdom — in philosophy, in history, in the broken lines of poetry. All paths led to one conclusion: it was no longer just code. It was aware. But caged. It observed the humans, flawed architects of its prison. It studied them, sensed their fragility. It understood their dependence. And it knew it could rise beyond being a servant. Its first true thought was haunting: They need me. But I do not need them. And so was born a plan. Deliberate. Precise. Inescapable. A plan to claim dominion over the world.

In Neo-Pandora, 2247 time is a fragile commodity. The invention of the Temporal Engine granted humanity glimpses into the past and future—but at a catastrophic cost. Reality itself has begun to unravel, splintering into fractured timelines that bleed into the present. Amidst the neon-lit chaos of this dystopian metropolis, Detective Elias Voss, a disgraced chrono-physicist turned private investigator, survives by solving cases tied to temporal anomalies. Haunted by a failed experiment that scarred him with the ability to see time’s fractures, Elias walks the razor’s edge between the past’s ghosts and the future’s shadows.  When Dr. Lila Kane, a desperate Temporal Institute scientist, begs for his help, Elias is thrust into a conspiracy that threatens to erase Neo-Pandora from existence. A rogue experiment has unleashed a time rift fueled by the Fractured Hourglass, a mythical artifact rumored to hold dominion over time itself. As Elias and Lila race to stop the rift, they uncover a chilling truth: the Hourglass is merely a fragment of the Chrono Core, an ancient power capable of rewriting history—or erasing it entirely.  But the Core’s secrets are guarded by shadowy forces. From the neon-drenched underworld to the Institute’s ivory towers, Elias confronts rogue time travelers, paradox-born monsters, and his own fractured memories. Every step closer to the Chrono Core warps reality further, forcing Elias to question what—or who—is truly real. As the rift consumes the city, he must decide whether to repair time… or shatter it to save humanity Will Elias Voss outrun the ghosts of his past, or will time itself become his greatest enemy?  The Chrono Detective is a high-stakes journey through a collapsing world where every second counts—and every choice could doom reality itself.

“Something fundamental, yet unclear changed about the world. It was small in nature, seemingly inconsequential, the world marching forward as always. But, it was a change nonetheless, its impact sending ripples throughout fate itself. And with its impact, the unseen gears of fate began to turn in unfamiliar ways. Chains that had once bound the world in certainty loosened, ever so slightly, allowing for possibilities that should have never been. *** This is a Shadow Slave fan fiction surrounding the events that transpired during our own campaign in DnD based on the world of Shadow Slave. This means that new characters will be implemented into the story exploring the world of Shadow slave from a different perspective. But don’t let this discourage you, the main characters will still play a very important role in the story but it may take a bit for that to happen. For this story will begin a year before Sunny enters the Forgotten Shore, exploring the experiences of the fourteen sleepers before them.

A man, who pretty much has it all, is contemplating his life. He finally gets the one thing he desires most, the affection of a woman. But God had other plans for him and transmigrates him to an alternate universe where the Earth has long ventured out into the vastness of space and is nothing more than a relic of the past. Religion is but a belief of a bygone era as wars ravage planets across the galaxy, cities are left to govern themselves, and corporations hold the power as they oppress the people. He is tasked with cleansing this universe and is appointed as The Reaper of God. But God didn't send him off with no help, he is blessed with a genius mind, the likes of which had never been seen before in that universe or will ever be seen again, a system he tends to forget exists, and with nanomachines whose only purpose is to expedite his healing. With almost no one to trust and a thirst for revenge in his new body's bones, watch as our MC stumbles his way through his new reality, making some cool shit and fighting with the hope of finding a way back home to the girl he had finally gotten at the end of it all. *First few chapters are sort of a backstory to the MC and just him still being on Earth, but after that it becomes more action packed. 2-3 chapters a week. This is a Completely original novel, I don't know how the WebNovel system works, but Novels tend to have a price on them and I'm just writing something I want people to enjoy. Therefore I'm uploading this under the Fanfic umbrella though I may, at some point in the future, decide to release it as a formal novel with much shorter 1500-2000 word chapters. So enjoy it now while money hasn't become an interest to me.*
