firstborn

"Shit! He died again." A boy threw his sword the moment he landed on the ground. He used his levitating magic to pick up a dead body and carry it in his arms. "My tan skin is now even darker than yours." he commented as he compared his dark complexion to the pale, lifeless body on his arms. He looked at a corpse as if it was not new for him to see that person lifeless, but it doesn’t mean it’s not painful to see his brother like this. "It’s not a good time to die, Kuya." The boy softly talked to the lifeless body as he looked up at the blue sky. His long silver-blond hair swayed with the wind as he flew through the sky, ascending slowly without end. "The weather is too good for us to die." It was a bright and sunny morning. White, fluffy clouds drifted across the sky, and so did his mind. The boy’s purple eyes have turned darker the more he stares at his dead brother’s pink hair, stained with blood. He had been trying to make his brother’s life better in his every regression, but the more he tried, the earlier his brother died. Originally, his brother died at fifty, but now in his ninetieth try, his brother died too early, at fifteen years old. It made him wonder if his power to return in time would really help his brother to experience a good and peaceful life, which his brother had never experienced. Or if it was just a power to mess everything up and make his brother’s life miserable. “What did I miss this time? What more should I do?” The boy grumbled while he gripped tighter on his brother’s body. It’s tiring, especially because he keeps returning back in time nineteen times in less than a century. He fought a lot of higher beings that humans could never surpass, but he somewhat did. For his brother, he could face dragons, gods, beasts, and any kind of dangerous being. He becomes stronger and greater than any human. But why does he keep failing? The boy just let out a sigh before he sped up, ascending to the sky, only focusing on his direction toward the sun. “Let’s die again and try for the twentieth time. I will never give up.” ....... The eyes and interest of the higher gods are focused on the fragile-looking child whom the firstborn son of the Marquis wished to divert. Ernesto Oliva is doing his best to save his friend from the bored and conceited gods that have made their lives very twisted. He returned back to the past multiple times with one goal: to make his friend's life more fulfilling. He does, however, end up dealing with a variety of beings, including Deities , Dragons, Demons, Giants, and other mysterious beings .....

As storms rage, blood runs, and the cursed Mark of Cain awakens fully in him, Kevin will have to decide: will he become the weapon everyone fears, or the balance no one dares to hope for?

In a world where your clan’s emotion is your power, Kael Dourne has the worst one. The Sorrow clan sits at the bottom of every hierarchy that matters- smallest territory, lowest rank, fewest fighters. Their emotion is considered passive and useless in battle, the kind of thing that makes other clans look away out of something that isn’t quite pity. Kael has spent 17 years being looked through by people who already decided what he was worth, then his awakening ceremony happened. The stone didn’t just respond to him. It lighted up the entire clearing, cracked the ground, and sent threads of pale light racing toward the feet of sixty people standing in a circle around him. And in the moment before it stopped, Kael felt something vast open inside him- not just his Sorrow, but everything. Rage. Fear. Joy. All of it at once. All of it somehow his. The clan elders sealed the record before dawn. Because in the thousand years since the old world ended and the clan system divided Anima into separate schools, only one kind of person could do what Kael just did… The Firstborn. Now the Pride clan is sending people to ask questions. Something ancient in the Verdant Wilds has been moving toward the settlement for days. And Kael has three weeks, a grandfather running on borrowed time, and an ability that grows stronger the more he loses- to become something the world hasn’t seen in a thousand years. The hard part isn’t the power. It’s what the power costs to carry.

Lira, a young girl lost in a mysterious forest, stumbles upon a hidden garden of black roses. Weak from hunger and exhaustion, she meets Caelan, a brooding man with a white mask covering half of his face, the other half scarred and twisted. He gives her food and a clean dress, but his cold, sarcastic demeanor hides a deeper pain. When Lira touches his scars, something strange happens: they begin to fade, as if her touch can heal them. Confused and afraid, she pulls away, but her touch has already triggered a transformation. Flowers bloom, and the air shimmers with life, breathing color into the dark, decaying castle nearby. Caelan reveals that her touch brings life to the castle, a place trapped in darkness and madness for centuries. The power she doesn't understand makes her a target for dangerous creatures that want to steal it. Fearing for her safety, Caelan traps her in his castle to protect her, even as he resents her ability to undo the curse that binds him there. As Lira spends more time with him, she discovers that her magic is tied to Caelan's curse. Each time she touches him, the scars on his face fade more, but it also threatens his existence. Despite his bitterness, a bond forms between them, and Lira begins to understand that she may be the key to breaking Caelan's curse-but only if she can control her dangerous power before the creatures outside break in. Lira must decide whether to trust Caelan, embrace her magic, and save the castle-or escape before her powers consume them both.

Cain, humanity’s first murderer, carries the weight of a millennia-old sin. Cursed by God to wander the Earth eternally, he witnessed empire after empire crumble under the same vices that stained his hands: envy, greed, humanity’s inescapable violence. His punishment was not just exile, but the lucidity to watch history repeat itself—until a shadowed entity offered him an escape. A pact that tore through the veils between worlds, hurling his soul into **Ethos**, a realm even the gods have abandoned. Reborn as **Prometheus**, firstborn son of the distrustful Baron Alaric of House Mirewood, Cain faces a paradoxical fate: a youthful body, but a soul corroded by centuries of guilt. In Ethos, magic is a wild and corrupted force, wars between noble houses are waged with blood and betrayal, and ancient creatures—remnants of a forgotten past—rise from the forests to devour the unwary. Worse than any monster, however, is the Baron’s gaze, which sees something unnervingly alien in his "son": a youth with the bearing of a veteran of a thousand battles and eyes that have witnessed the world’s end. As Cain struggles to hide his true identity while wielding his ancient cunning to survive, dark secrets emerge. The entity that brought him to Ethos acts not out of benevolence—every step Prometheus takes in this new world feeds a cosmic design, where his very soul may be the key to unleashing chaos worse than his fratricide. Amid fragile alliances with ambitious sorcerers, battles against beasts that defy reason, and the ghost of Abel haunting his dreams, Cain must confront the question that has tormented him since the Garden of Eden: Can the damned find redemption in a world already born rotten? But Ethos is no refuge. It is a mirror. In its corrupt courts, he sees the greed that once consumed him; in its senseless wars, the echo of his own crime. And when the shadowed entity finally reveals its true face, Cain realizes his escape may have only been the beginning of a deeper condemnation—one where he is not just the prisoner, but the jailer himself. Now, torn between the thirst for redemption and the instinct to survive, Prometheus must decide whether Ethos will be the stage for his rebirth… or the final grave of all hope. For even in a new world, the sins whisper his name—and they have not forgotten.
