hephaestus story

A young archaeologist ends up dying under incredible circumstances and ends up being reincarnated in another world as the son of Hera. What will he do with the power of a god in his hands? Will it be a calamity that will destroy the world or will it be the one that will dethrone the Olympian gods from their golden thrones?

The Unbroken Smith Born from flame and cast from heaven, Hephaestus, the god of fire and forge, was destined to rise from the ashes of his own suffering. Crippled and scorned, he wielded his hammer to craft wonders that even the gods could not ignore. This is the story of the outcast, Hephaestus who forged his own destiny: a tale of resilience, creation, and the unyielding power of fire. A fresh take on the tale of the tormented Olympian God.

God of Fire and Hephaestus is seen as a stain to Olympus and is treated like a slave by every god and is mocked by his cheating 'wife' by openly being with his brother Ares and all her lovers. But its time for them all to remember he is the God Of Fire for a reason and he is not to be dealt with disrespect anymore.

When the System arrives and suddenly resets reality as we know it, Kaelen Sharpe, a office worker by day and an amateur blacksmith by night, wakes to find his passion has become his power. With monsters on the streets and the world unraveling, he’s given a new path forward. As old gods stir and civilization collapses, Kaelen’s hammer will decide if he rises as a legend or shatters under the pressure.

Looney Meek was born in Boston, Massachusetts during the Salem Witch Trials. After her mom is manipulated and r**** by a man in her town, she and her mother face persecution at the hands of those who were supposed to believe her and her mother. They were tried as witches and burnt at the stake; they punished as liars, mentally ill, and ruining the life of a man due to a time where patriarchy and misogyny led to heinous acts. However, Looney Meek forever lives on, becoming the ruler of The Sheep Keep, where she minds spirits that once lived and never questioned society and just blindly followed what they were told. Because of the sheep in her town, she was burnt alive at seventeen, and her story is still told throughout the centuries. Looney essentially becomes a fairy tale and even makes herself known to people when they sin because of patriarchal, political, social, and religious conforms, because she and her mother were victims of these reforms. She welcomes you, dear reader, to her story, her reborn body, and how she and her birds either drag sheep to her keep, or protect people that are at risk of becoming what she minds. Thank you for listening to her story, and welcome to the keep! (Verb tense changes due to her telling her story in the past and present).

Nigel Ainsworth, my ex-husband, had just been appointed my new boss. Staring at his handsome, stone-cold face, the memory of his betrayal from three years ago tightened around my heart like a vise. The hands that once set my body on fire now signed off on surgical directives, and the thought made my stomach clench. I let my voice drip with ice. "Dr. Ainsworth, if you'd shown this much backbone three years ago, we might not be in this position." Without a second glance, I spun on my heel and strode out of the suffocating office, my heels echoing sharply on the polished floor.

Shen Lu opens her eyes to find she has transmigrated into a wasteland world, becoming the fake young lady who was kicked out of her home. With her is her equally miserable fiancé, the future major villain. Fortunately, her golden finger activates, and in this wasteland world where the average person can't even get a single hot meal, she embarks on the path to riches through food. Egg waffles, spicy hotpot, and crawfish. Braised pork belly, crock-pot soup, and egg fried rice. ... From a small stall to a small shop. Then from a restaurant to a holiday resort, in less than two years, Shen Lu's name became known throughout the world. Countless celebrities and dignitaries hold out Star Coins, begging for just one bite of Shen Lu's cooking. The Shen Family, who had used her up and ruthlessly abandoned her, regret their past actions, crying and shouting as they beg for her forgiveness. Shen Lu crosses her arms: "Sure. Why don't you slit your throats first to show me your sincerity?"

Yunyun is reincarnated into a post-apocalyptic novel with a powerful female protagonist. Unfortunately, she isn’t the heroine. She’s just a minor cannon fodder character… destined to die early. But after awakening memories of the novel, Yunyun accidentally reveals the future through her thoughts— [Mommy, boohoo… your scumbag husband has been cheating on you for years and even has a child with another woman. In the end, they’ll join forces to cripple and torture you to death!] [Uncle, you’ll be betrayed by an ungrateful subordinate and driven out of your own luxurious home, left to freeze to death in the snow!] [Grandpa… Grandma…] In the original story, only her young aunt—the novel’s female lead—survives to the very end, killing her enemies with her own hands… only to live on as something neither fully human nor a ghost. Before they can recover from learning their fates, another thought leaks out— [Sigh, the apocalypse is coming soon. As a three-year-old cannon fodder, can I go offline early? I don't want to suffer through the end of the world…] Looking at the little milk dumpling in their arms, pretending to be silly just so she can laze around… What else can the Bai family do but spoil her? They hoard supplies, renovate and fortify their home, and prepare in advance for the coming apocalypse. Meanwhile, little Yunyun follows her protagonist aunt, accidentally kicking off the base-building plot and helping create a super base where food and clothing are abundant, even in the apocalypse. Step by step, the Bai family rises to power. In the end, Yunyun is dumbfounded: [Wait… wasn't I supposed to be cannon fodder?! Why does this feel like a "pampered lucky baby" story?!] The Bai family: Their little Yunyun is, indeed, their precious lucky baby.
