codependent manipulation

Zephyrion had spent the past seven years as an elite assassin for the Order. However, he had never expected that everything he had been led to believe was a lie. Fleeing the Order, he returns to his former life as the second son of one of the most powerful Houses in the Ferran Empire, only to find it divided among rival heirs, ambitious relatives, and powerful factions already maneuvering to seize control. But Zephyrion is no longer the same naive boy as in the past. His years of brutal training have forged him into an Ascendant who defies the very foundation of the world’s power—no longer bound to a single element. Armed with a calculating mind, lethal skill, and the principles his mother once taught him, he will manipulate, outmaneuver, and dismantle every force that stands before him. A/N:   This novel is action-packed and centered around manipulation, so expect intense battles, calculated moves, and ruthless decisions.   The MC is cold, lethal, and highly manipulative.  The first arc focuses on his return home and the establishment of stakes. After that, the pacing accelerates significantly as he grows stronger at a rapid pace.   The story follows the MC’s rise as he develops the Seven Principles of Manipulation, and each arc explores the core of a principle and how it is shaped.   An academy arc will appear later on, and it will be worth the wait.   This is a long-form story (1000+ chapters). It’s recommended to read through the free chapters before deciding whether to continue.   Cheers. … Discord: https://discord.gg/8JthpjYZez

Zephyrion a passé les sept dernières années comme assassin d'élite pour l'Ordre. Cependant, il ne se serait jamais attendu à ce que tout ce qu'on l'avait poussé à croire ne soit qu'un mensonge. Fuyant l'Ordre, il retourne à son ancienne vie de second fils de l'une des plus puissantes Maisons de l'Empire Ferran, pour la trouver divisée entre des héritiers rivaux, des parents ambitieux et de puissantes factions manœuvrant déjà pour en prendre le contrôle. Mais Zephyrion n'est plus le même garçon naïf que par le passé. Ses années d'entraînement brutal ont fait de lui un Ascendant qui défie le fondement même du pouvoir de ce monde — il n'est plus lié à un seul élément. Armé d'un esprit calculateur, de compétences mortelles et des principes que sa mère lui a jadis enseignés, il manipulera, déjouera et démantèlera toutes les forces qui se dresseront devant lui. A/N: Ce roman est plein d'action et centré sur la manipulation, attendez-vous donc à des batailles intenses, des coups calculés et des décisions impitoyables. Le MC est froid, mortel et très manipulateur. Le premier arc se concentre sur son retour chez lui et la mise en place des enjeux. Après cela, le rythme s'accélère de manière significative à mesure qu'il gagne en puissance à une cadence rapide. L'histoire suit l'ascension du MC tandis qu'il développe les Sept Principes de la Manipulation, et chaque arc explore l'essence d'un principe et la manière dont il est façonné. Un arc académique apparaîtra plus tard, et l'attente en vaudra la peine. C'est une histoire au long cours (1000+ chapitres).

Karl, a young man stuck in a rough patch after losing his job and burning through almost all his savings, wandered through the cold, dark streets of Eldoria. On the damp, silent sidewalks, he stumbled upon something bizarre: an old gacha machine mysteriously appearing at every corner he turned, almost as if it was following him. Driven by a mix of curiosity and the overwhelming weirdness of the situation, Karl finally gave in and used his last bit of money on the machine. From the gacha ball, he pulled out a card with a barcode. Back in his cramped apartment, curiosity finally won over caution, and Karl scanned the barcode. To his shock, an app called "Common Sense Manipulation App" installed itself on his phone, claiming it could alter people's "common sense." ------ Support Me By Gifts or Power Stones -----

Ashriti's POV He lies beautifully. And I let him. I knew he didn't love me. He loved my money. My power. What I could give him. But he stayed. And that was enough. I ignored the cheating. I defended the lies. I paid for the damage. Because being used by him felt better than being without him. They said he was poison. They didn't know I was addicted. And then- he was gone. No warning. No goodbye. Just silence where his voice used to live. I'm still standing in that silence. Still waiting for him to come back and tell me this is just another one of his cruel jokes.
