Apocalypse Users Manual

Additional Book Tags; Physicological, Gore, Cunning male lead, Game elements, gods, Anti hero, Suspense, Large World, Gaslighting. Synopsis At the end of it all, Dssal was the one who built Pantheon. "My felicitations to the Nameless God." Hence, the apparent praise waiting for him—if he ever lived long enough to hear it. December 24th, 2026 marked the start of everything: the day he stepped into Pantheon. Not as some chosen god, though—that chance was barely there. Pantheon was a cosmic horror game, one in which Dssal entered as a throwaway nobody, burdened with the miserable title of "Feeble Wanderer." If Alice hadn't lived through this exact timeline ninety-nine times before, there would be no story to tell today. After all, even across every loop so far, she'd failed—and this run was her last. To the world continuum, a regressor was nothing special. As per the game's lore, a divine war among the Eight High Gods broke containment, and their chaos inevitably spilled from Cosmos into the real world. Earth could only survive if this impossible game was cleared—a matter of life and death. That is a version of the game even without the war which was never cleared on earth. Dssals predicament was almost impossible. Possibility only remained because to balance cause and effect it offered Dssal something different. The Eight High wields the power of manifestation, hence a new law emerged—one bound by a broken loophole: The User's Manual. Fallacy When inside Pantheon, by the Eight High's will, if developers and players alike believes Dssal (the creator) possessed something, the system would code it real—according to the manual. Falsehood could literally become a weapon. Dssal grinned when he heard it. This wasn't a power fantasy. This was the story of how the weakest Arcane Bearer alive lies, cheats, and claws his way through survival long enough to turn the end of the world into leverage. This is the story of How To Use A World's Apocalypse. --- A/N: The main story fully begins at chapter 11 btw and a full written volume of 101 chapters is already available hence do belive in this unrivalled authors consistency XD

Solar Ascension

Nox always had a dream, he wanted to see the sun without the hazy pollution fog that constantly hung above the slums, he also wanted a chance at becoming a Solar knight, the selected few that were granted a Helion Core and the chance to stand against the monsters known as Eclipsed. But for someone born and raised in the gutters of Aureum, dreams like that were nothing more than fantasies. The Academy, the shining heart of the Solar Confederacy, was a world reserved for the privileged — not for rats scraping through metal heaps for a handful of credits. Until a tier 2 Eclipsed suddenly attacked the slums and by some miracle, Nox found himself alive and in the hands of a crazy teacher at the academy. Now, under the watch of a definitely half-mad Academy instructor who seems far too interested in him, Nox finds himself walking through the gates of the Solar Academy — the very place he once thought unreachable. He doesn’t know it yet, but his survival wasn’t luck. It was the beginning of something far greater. Something that could change Aureum forever. *** Extra chapters and mass releases: 100 power stones = 2 Extra chapters. 50 Golden Tickets= 4 Extra chapters.

Harem of Villainesses: I Awakened SSS-Rank Skills After Killing a God

# Synopsis My past life doesn't matter. How I died doesn't matter. Only what I am now matters. I woke up in a dead boy's body with one mission: fulfill his last wish. "Kill the sun and weather gods," he whispered before his soul disappeared. I had no choice. A dying wish is sacred—so I accepted it. When I transmigrated, I gained a system and one skill: Absorption. My first target? The sun god, freshly reincarnated and weak. He was just a child. Killing him felt morally grey, until I remembered: gods don't die permanently, they reincarnate. He'd return in a thousand years. So I absorbed his core. [Congratulations! You have slain the Sun God and attained his blazing core!] [Title Acquired: Flame Champion] [Title Acquired: Godslayer!] Staring at those notifications, something changed in me. I didn't just want to fulfill the boy's wish anymore. I wanted to kill every god that exists. One god became two, two became six. Each kill made me stronger, I absorbed their cores, their powers, their very essence. But killing gods has consequences and unexpected rewards. For every god I slay, another villainess joins my side, each one bringing her own power to my crusade. Now, after six divine corpses, Heaven itself demands my head. They've sent their champions, warriors blessed by the gods I haven't killed yet, to strike me down. But I won't stop. Not until every god falls. Even if it means becoming Heaven's greatest enemy with an army of villainesses at my back.

Starting With SSS-rank: I Get A New Skill Every Livestream

One day, I decided to end my short livestreaming career. Not that I had ever started it with the intention of earning money. My life had hit rock bottom: a disappointment to my family, painfully average in academics, buried under massive debt after my company failed, and to top it all off, the one person who had been my emotional support, my loving girlfriend, cheated on me. Yes, life had turned into hell. So I chose to cut off all distractions and focus solely on my studies. However, the moment I went live to announce my decision, the few viewers I had exploded in rage. [There will be slaughter! Whoever made my Kyle sad deserves to burn in hell!] [My time with Kyle… gone… that demands… massacre.] [Kyle… Kyle… don’t go…] Then came a suggestion. [I have sent a gift for you. I hope that helps change your mind.] That gift, sent by one of my regular viewers, completely changed my life. I learned that the world I lived in wasn’t as simple as I had believed. Nightmares, shadows, ghouls, curses… they were as real as humans. And with the blessing I received, I became part of that hidden world. On top of that, I received a system that sometimes rewards me simply for existing. It’s crazy. The viewers I thought were just regular people were all deities. •••••••• A/N: For the first few arcs, the protagonist will operate in secrecy, and there is a good reason for it. The main character will experience sudden growth in strength, as this story isn’t about gradual power-building but about personal connections and slice of life. Expect heavy slice of life in this one. And please read through the free chapters before passing judgment.

Fate: I Just Want to Die and Sit on the Throne of Heroes

I crossed into the world of Type Moon and, for some reason, the Root itself recognized me. As long as I die an abnormal death, I can ascend to the Throne of Heroes and become its lord, an existence stronger and freer than even the Seven Grand Servants. So, in order to die, I started acting like a complete fool across the Nasuverse. I cursed Gilgamesh to his face in Uruk, challenged almighty Zeus in Greece, openly kidnapped Skadi in Northern Europe, proclaimed in Israel that Solomon was a demon god instead of a holy king, and even stood at Morgan’s side in Britain. Yet for some reason I am still alive. By 1994, Fuyuki City, history has given me a ridiculous list of titles: the third friend of the Most Ancient King, the first prime minister of Mesopotamia, the man favored by the Greek gods, the king of giants in Northern Europe, the incarnation of God who awakened Solomon’s humanity in Israel, the miracle worker supported by Prince Camelot. On top of the Fuyuki Bridge, a young yet world weary Lovi sits on the railing, staring at the city lights and sighing. “Tell me, what exactly went wrong? Or you could just kill me here and let me finally ascend to the Throne of Heroes. Please.” Kiritsugu Emiya lights a cigarette, glances at Artoria holding the Holy Spear, at the treasury of the King unfolding beside Gilgamesh, at the crimson spear tip reaching out from the distant Kingdom of Shadows. The cigarette in his hand trembles slightly.

272 Days Until...

Kyle. A boy worn thin by expectations that were never truly his own. Misunderstood, overestimated, and exhausted from a lifetime spent pleasing everyone but himself. After graduation, he leaves behind his quiet countryside home, hoping a distant university might finally offer him peace. Instead, the city offers him something far stranger than loneliness. Waiting inside the house meant to be his new start is a girl he has never met-serene, unfamiliar, and fundamentally wrong in ways he can't quite name. She doesn't feel human. And she isn't very good at pretending to be. She asks if she can live with him. Reluctant, and too kind to refuse, Kyle agrees-unaware that he has just welcomed into his life something far older and far greater than he could possibly understand. She is not merely otherworldly. She is an existence that should not care about human hearts at all. An Outer God wearing a fragile disguise, observing a species she was never meant to touch. Yet he fascinates her. Beneath his calm exterior is a boy shaped by a past that taught him to distrust affection, to measure love as obligation, and to fear what it might demand of him in return. His brokenness is not something Anathasia was prepared for, nor something her kind was ever meant to encounter. As she watches him, studies him, and begins to feel, the boundary between observer and participant begins to erode. What begins as quiet cohabitation becomes something far more dangerous. Will their impossible bond heal the wounds Kyle tried so desperately to bury, or will it awaken emotions in both of them that neither of their worlds will allow to exist? [DISCLAIMER] This is a work of fiction set in a version of modern-day Earth. While real-world locations, historical events, cultures, and mythologies may be referenced, they are depicted in a fictionalized manner for storytelling purposes. All characters, interpretations, and narratives are products of my imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, beyond historical figures, is purely coincidental.
