Seventeen years after the great war that reshaped realms, the world stands in uneasy peace under the watchful eye of the Shadow Monarch. His son, Sung Suho, comes of age in a world still marked by ancient power and fractured destinies. But Suho’s awakening is no ordinary inheritance. Bearing the weight of dual legacies—one forged in shadow, the other in destruction—Suho steps into a world transformed. As new Gates emerge with unfamiliar forms and unknown dangers, he faces trials that challenge not only his strength but his very essence. Each victory deepens his connection to forces far older and more complex than he could have imagined, while the mysterious System that governs Hunters begins to show signs of strain. Humanity itself has evolved. Mana pulses through the land and its people, shifting power balances and sparking new conflicts. Nations vie for control over these portals between worlds, and shadows of past heroes have twisted into something unrecognizable. Dark forces from other realities cross over, bringing chaos and challenge, forcing Suho to confront threats that blur the line between friend and foe. Torn between competing wills within himself and caught in a web of cosmic intrigue, Suho must learn what it truly means to wield power—not for conquest, but for purpose. Alongside unlikely allies and against enemies both familiar and strange, he fights to protect a world on the brink of fracturing. As Gates multiply and time itself seems to unravel, Suho’s journey leads to an inevitable reckoning. To survive—and to save all that remains—he must master the legacy he has inherited and forge a new path beyond legend. From the dawn of his ascension to the crucible of destruction, Suho’s fate will decide the shape of a new age. He will not simply follow in the footsteps of those before him, but become something entirely his own: the heir who reshapes the future. Note: ”While this is meant to serve as a sequel to Solo Leveling, and although I did pull inspiration from Solo Leveling: Ragnarok, this story is intended to be its own story which occurred within a separate reality.”~Darth Katalyst

Ask, under the starry sky there was a beauty, her black hair like eternal night, bright eyes sparkling like stars, her powerful magic made the world tremble, her supreme beauty made all creatures submit, who was this beauty? "That's right, it's me, the Witch King, Dorothy!" ps: The original title is "Armed Witch." This is a slow-burn story, not for those who dislike a slow pace. Not for those who dislike a slow pace!

NEW DAWN In the decaying sprawl of a post-industrial mega-city where corruption thrives in the towers of the elite and the oppressed scavenge for dignity in the shadows, a figure has emerged—neither savior nor tyrant, but something far more dangerous: a man who believes in change. He is known only as Ashar, a former enforcer turned political outlier, forged by tragedy and tempered by exile. Once a tool of the system he now seeks to dismantle, Ashar walks the fine line between revolutionary and renegade. Clad in a mask not just to shield his face, but to symbolize the anonymity forced on millions, he rallies the disillusioned and the forgotten. But Ashar is not a myth. He bleeds. He doubts. He remembers the family he lost to the government's silent purges. Haunted by the ghosts of his past and burdened by the hope of a better future, he steps into the light of a New Dawn—not to lead a rebellion, but to ignite one. As the powers that be scramble to extinguish this growing spark, factions form, loyalties fracture, and the line between justice and vengeance blurs. In a world where truth has been weaponized and trust is a luxury, Ashar stands not as a hero—but as a mirror held up to a broken society. And what that society sees... may finally tear it apart.

What if the gods gave you power… not out of justice, but regret? Kael was only ten years old—a simple farm boy in a forgotten village—when a monster tore his world apart. His parents were slaughtered, his home destroyed, and his sister vanished without a trace.

But the world beyond the hills is far more dangerous than he imagined. Ancient races, divine secrets, and legendary beasts all stand in his path.

In the celestial expanse, the planet of Osiris hangs like a luminous opal, suspended amidst the starry tapestry by the silken threads of fate. This world, a marvel of wonder, is home to nine realms, each governed by godlike monarchs who wield powers both mystical and mysterious. The royal bloodlines of Osiris possess a prestigious gift – the ability to harness the power of Quantum Energy. This arcane force, a manifestation of the cosmos' inherent majesty, courses through the veins of the nobility like liquid starlight. Those who wield this power are known as Warlocks or Quantum Kinetics, and they are the epitome of esoteric prowess, their abilities rivaled only by the celestial bodies that light the firmament. Yet the star-kissed realms of Osiris tremble on the cusp of cataclysm, the Shadow Terrestrials, ancient harbingers of darkness and despair, stir from their celestial slumber, their malevolent presence threatening to unleash unfathomable chaos. Against this apocalyptic backdrop, the monarchs of the nine realms convene at the Glazier Ball, a dazzling spectacle of wonder and majesty, where the fate of the luminous Daughter of Light hangs precariously in the balance, a delicate pawn in a grand game of power, mystery and ancient lore, as the realms themselves teeter on the brink of oblivion.

After the awakening, the hell he once saw transformed into an Ambrose, yet not a single soul had changed.

Strongest will makes us to stand still after regression, when you are not changing, you are choosing
