Shy Venom

qqquest
In the shadow of a powerful clan, Hinata Hyuuga is a whisper of inadequacy, a quiet failure destined for obscurity. But a desperate wish upon a falling star brings not salvation, but a covenant. A second skin of living darkness, a partner born from the cold between worlds, now shares her body and soul. As her flesh is rewritten into a form of terrifying, beautiful power and her gentle fist learns a monstrous new grace, she is haunted by a ravenous hunger that cannot be sated and guided by a second, ancient voice that echoes in her mind. Now, Hinata must walk a razor’s edge, hiding the power of a cosmic predator behind a shy smile, while her other half whispers promises of glory, dominance, and the exquisite taste of fear. The question is not if she will become strong, but how long a goddess of quiet, lethal violence can pretend to be a simple genin before the whole world is forced to kneel.

Lord Of Beasts

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top! P.S.
