Shadow of truth

"Success is a shallow foundation built on luck and circumstance. Failure, accumulated and stacked like endless bodies in a mass grave, forges the deepest roots into unshakable power. I know all this about power with surety as all I had were countless failures. After all, I am Vakochev, and I set the very Scales of Existence. This... is my story. Existence, is my Story." --- In the brutal Lands of Stone, where mountains move and beasts devour civilizations whole, power is the only currency that matters. Damian Vakochev was once a prince to a glorious power, but he was stripped of that power, family, and everything he held dear as he was left with a shattered foundation. In an age where tribes war for scraps and Neolithic Empires crush all who oppose them, where ancient beasts roam territories older than memory and Mana flows through the Lands of Stone like blood through veins, where Warriors reinforced by Mana who could go against entire armies and Primal Beasts could devour entire mountains, Damian looks upon it all and asks...why? Who said things had to be the way they were? Who decided what power truly was? Why could he not stand over the tallest mountain and declare exactly what power was as he saw fit?! Why did he have to follow the set path of cultivation? Why were others born with Land and Sky Physiques while he was not? What prevented him setting up his own rules and his own paths?!

Kyle broke free. Sadly, punching the leader of a gang of thugs had consequences, and the leader's cronies would beat Kyle to death. But so what?! He didn't regret punching this guy even once! However, a powerful Magic Lady saved Kyle and then did something strange. She offered him a job. Apparently, he would have to go to a different world, a brutal realm where strength was the only law, and become its Overseer. A world where one person could fight thousands of people. A world where gigantic beasts broke mountains. And Kyle? He was just some random guy. He couldn't break mountains. Hell, he could barely fight a single guy, but what was he supposed to do? Reject the offer and get killed? Whether he liked it or not, he had to grow stronger, and while the beginning was tough, he actually found something he really enjoyed. His gigantic hammer. It was exhilarating when beasts exploded into chunks of flesh whenever he struck them. He loved turning boulders into rubble. With his hammer in hand, Kyle would forge a path of destruction through beast hordes and any ancient gods who dare stand in his way. And as his power grew, he became more and more involved in a war between two fundamentally different forces of nature.

Wren Langford was just a normal guy. He was not the type that turned heads walking into a room but not the type that got ignored either... he was just somewhere comfortably in the middle, which had never really bothered him. He got through college, made his friends, and lived his life... It was fine. Graduation night was supposed to be a sendoff with good food, good company, and the girl he'd liked for longer than he'd admit sitting close enough that he'd finally talked himself into doing something about it then his dad called and dropped the news mid-dinner... he was heading out of the country and Wren needed to go run the resort he owned out in some small town in Mayne. Wren said okay, hung up and went back to his food. He would deal with one problem at a time. The night ended with him at her apartment door saying everything he'd kept to himself for years and she let him finish then she told him plainly that she'd graduated top of her class, had companies already calling her and was thinking about her life in a way that didn't have room for someone like him. The door closed and he stood there in the hallway for a moment before walking away and he was on the bus to Harlow the next morning when the interface appeared out of nowhere. [Congratulations, you have been chosen as the Host for the NTR Business System] [Steal people's lovers and earn System Points... your path to becoming the richest man alive] [Main Mission Received: Make Langford Lodge the most popular resort in the world] Wren stared at it for a while and outside the window, Mayne rolled by then he exhaled slowly. "So I should make this resort the most popular resort in the whole world, huh?"

He woke up in a hospital bed-only to realize he was no longer himself, but Kakashi Hatake.

A human dies, a Demon wakes up. Strong, fast, immortal, naturally talented in magic, capable of picking up languages with ease, what's not to love, right? Wrong. It's hard to enjoy life when nothing causes real enjoyment anymore, and your emotions are dim, distant, and foreign. This can make a man religious. This is a story about a man, turned demon, trying to find a way to keep himself together and maybe, just maybe, one day return the humanity he lost. ---- I do have a patreon. patreon (.) com/wiererid/ The patreon holds 1 advanced chapter for this story. I only just created it, so it's nothing too special yet, but if you want to support me, it's there.
