When brilliant physicist Ethan Cross receives a terminal ALS diagnosis, he expects nothing but a slow descent into darkness. Instead, his late grandfather leaves him the Engine — an obsidian disc that opens a portal to the Substrate, a primordial world older than time itself. With only a handful of years left, Ethan becomes both creator and witness. He watches life spark from chemistry, guides the slow march toward complexity, and meets the first sentient beings who will never know his name. Every intervention costs him years of vitality, yet he refuses to simply observe. He builds skies, protects fragile lineages, and learns to coexist with the ancient entity called the Silence — something that was already watching when his grandfather first arrived. As the Vael take their first steps and Ethan’s body fails, he must answer the only question that matters: what does a dying god owe the world he helped birth? A story of science, legacy, mortality, and the terrifying beauty of creation.

In an era of warring lords and ancient spirits, a forgotten god is reborn. Kaito, a seemingly ordinary boy from a tranquil Japanese village, lives a life of quiet simplicity. But when a monstrous oni shatters his peaceful existence, a dormant power awakens within him – a blinding, divine light that banishes the darkness and leaves his village in awe and fear.

The Book of Becoming — Before gods had names, before death had a meaning, Cain broke the first law. He defied Heaven, murdered his brother Abel—then resurrected him. That single act of rebellion shattered the equilibrium of creation, birthing sin, memory, and consequence. Abel returned, no longer mortal. His rebirth was incomplete, a soul rewritten by divine paradox. Now he walks the multiverse as Necros-Babel, the Almighty’s Eternal Witness, Shepherd of Endings, and Paragon of Death—the first Reaper, the shadow by which all others measure their silence. Even gods fear him, for he remembers what they have chosen to forget. Ages later, as time circles back upon itself, the Nine Ascendants rise—each embodying one fragment of the divine equation lost when Abel died: light, flame, shadow, will, void, genesis, mind, flesh, and judgment. They are not heroes. They are the unresolved ideas of gods long dead, summoned by the universe itself to restore balance to a world collapsing under the weight of its own perfection. But deep beneath the ocean floor, in the cathedral of bones that was once Eden’s foundation, Cain sleeps still—his blood crystallized into the Seal of Dominion, binding Heaven, Sea, and Void together. Should the seal fracture, his awakening will not be a resurrection but a rewrite—the unmaking of existence so it may begin again in his image. The Ascendants’ light cannot save creation without first confronting the oldest truth: to ascend, one must consume their own divinity. Each must descend into the heart of their paradox, where their virtues become their devourers, and the shadows of Cain whisper the law of all flesh—that to know God is to inherit His hunger. The final prophecy speaks of the hour when Fire meets Stillness, when the Nine stand beneath a bleeding sky and remember their mortality. In that instant, the heavens will collapse inward; time will fracture; the rivers of light will flow backward; and the sky itself will scream. And at the center of it all, Necros-Babel—Abel reborn, the first and last witness—will decide whether creation deserves to begin again… or end forever.

Tired of standard Xianxia tropes? I wrote an Epic Progression Fantasy based on ancient Vietnamese Mythology Hello everyone! If you are looking for a fresh take on cultivation, kingdom-building, and epic cosmic battles, I’d love to introduce my novel, The Epic of Lac Viet. Instead of standard Daoist tropes, this story dives deep into the untapped richness of ancient Vietnamese mythology—featuring the Dong Son Bronze Drums, the mythical Lac Bird, and the primordial Dragon-Fairy bloodline. Synopsis: The story follows Tran Kien, a calm and fiercely determined youth. When his homeland faces annihilation by the descent of the Nine-Tiered Heavenly Palace and vengeful spirits from the Underworld, he accidentally resonates with a supreme ancient artifact. Starting as a humble cultivator, Kien must navigate a treacherous path, forge alliances, and build an unstoppable army to protect his people. His journey isn't about selfish immortality; it's about pushing the boundaries of mortality to challenge the Heavenly Emperor himself. What to expect: • [+] A Brand New World: Deep lore based on actual Vietnamese ancient history and mythology. • [+] Progression Fantasy & Cultivation: Meaningful Weak-to-Strong progression, evolving into reality-warping, cosmic-level battles. • [+] Kingdom Building: Epic scale warfare, strategy, and army management. • [+] The Protagonist: Calm, hardworking, and deeply anchored by his duty to his homeland. (No harem, no mindless arrogance). • [+] Slow-burn Epic: A massive, layered world that rewards patient readers. The Best Part? As an author, I hate dropped novels as much as you do. That’s why I already have a massive backlog of 700 chapters completely outlined and drafted. I am publishing DAILY updates, so you never have to worry about this story going on hiatus.

Erus has royal blood, but his own father treats him like a monster. To the King, Erus is just a savage creature who needs to be controlled. The people also branded him Tyrant. Growing up hated and alone, Erus only wanted one thing, a place where he truly belonged. ​To prove himself, he entered a deadly trial where the winner earns a title and a spot serving the King. He was even desperate enough to try making a deal with the God of Death just to win. But then Cana showed up and completely changed his path. Instead of a dark pact with the underworld, an accidental "Master-Slave" contract bound them together. Erus is the Master and Cana is the servant, but their connection is way deeper than a simple spell. ​As they fight through the trial, Erus realizes he isn't the only one with terrifying power—Cana’s abilities might actually be stronger than his. They share a bond that goes back to a past someone tried desperately to bury. Now, they have to survive a trial designed to kill them while facing enemies who are just hiding behind their own fear. ​In the end, what’s more important: the title that was stripped away, or the memories that were erased to keep the truth hidden?
