Synopsis

Magic is not real. Monster that defy logics should not exist. Yet, I cannot refute what is before my very eyes. What my mangled body has told me through painful experiences. What my dying mind has comprehended with my last willpower. The world that I have once lived in changed abruptly one day, and the new era dawned for the human race. It is done by the hands of those who are known as Rulers. They call it mercy, but I know it is a game to them. If they truly wish to help the human race, then there surely a better way than sacrificing billions to uplift the selected few. The Zoning Events was set in stone, and the dimensional barrier collapses, allowing the monsters that we could never hope to defeat with our current technology to enter our universe. Allowing horrifying worlds and landscapes to merge with our own. And through blood, sweat, and fear, we understand that our science cannot truly surpass the natural law of the universe. Only through magic, the human race might survive. Only through magic, a better future can be reached. Everything has its price, and no price is too great for the second chance. This is the story of the last Merchant. One Last Merchant. *** Disclaimer: This story contains graphical sex scenes and depictions of torture! Please enjoy!

Chapter 1Prologue

"You…! How dare you!? You are just a Merchant!"

I stare silently at the being who was once heralded as a God. No. Perhaps, it was even more powerful than the Gods themselves, for I have met Gods and ended plenty. What does that make me? Certainly not a God. I am… simply human.

"Everything has its price," I state. "Even your death has its price."

My eyes glow eerily, and my aura swirls menacingly. This is what I have achieved at the expense of all that I have loved. I wonder whether it is worth it. What do I have in the end after they are all dead? It certainly does not bring me any joy.

"Wait! Wait!"

There is certainly fear within its eyes. The same kind of fears that my eyes have long forgotten.

"I never imagine myself saying this, but I do not wish to bargain," I state flatly and activate my power, the only power that can truly kill a being beyond comprehension.

It screams fill the void, and within the next moment, it ceases to exist, in all of time and space. Yet, in spite of that, I feel so empty and hollow. More so than before since my only goal for existing no longer exist.

"Wealth of Knowledge," I activate one of my greatest powers. It allows me to know things that I would not have known otherwise. "Tell me. Is there a way to truly have what I desire most?"

I learn there is a way. A slim chance.

"Power of Money," I activate another one of my greatest powers. The powers that belong to my class, the Merchant. It is a unique class. "I will trade all that I have for his time. The Aspect of Time."

My wealth. My status. My possession. All vanishes. The only thing remains is me, and the knowledge that I have gained.

And in return, a person is summoned. He looks as human as I am, but there is great power dwelling in him, for he is an Aspect.

"You are not the first to do so, and you certainly will not be the last. I do have the power to grant you what you desire the most, but in exchange, I require your assistance in the near future," the Aspect of Time tells me before flickering out of existence once more, leaving behind an hourglass.

All that I have fought and earned only worth a fraction of his time, and in return, he would give me all of my time back.

I reach out and touch the hourglass, and the dimensional void fades away. I close my eyes for the first time in so long.

And I am able to hear. Hear a voice that I have not heard in so long.

"Hey Zan! Zan! Are you in there? Dude. If you die, can I have your PlayStation?"

My eyes slowly open, taking in the bright light of the infirmary. And despite my painful bruises, I laugh loudly and then grab hold of my best friend. He is real, and I have returned to the past.

"Woah. Woah! Not here. I'm not ready!"

Lackey's Seducing Survival Odyssey

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ Release Schedule:- 2 Chapters Every Day! But wait—there’s more! Want extra chapters? Your support makes it happen!

Affinity:Chaos

"Grey, elemental affinity, zero" The Elder announced the result loudly On hearing this, it was like a bolt of lightning struck Grey, he stood there dumbfounded and just stared at the Elder. Shocked voices could be heard from the people and there was some which were also filled with scorn. Grey stood dazed amidst all the noises without any reactions. One word was constantly reverberating in his head, 'How?'. 'Why, why did this happen to me?' Grey asked himself over and over again **************** Unbeknownst to Grey, something greater lies in wait in his body.... *************** Check out the book, leave a review after reading, and also your powerstones. Hope you enjoy this, and Thanks for reading ^_^ P.S: When I started this book I had zero writing experience, so the first chapters aren't that great, although, my writing quality has improved over time. Also, English isn't my first language, so there are some instances where my choice of words are not good enough for what I'm trying to portray. A heads up, the book will be using a medieval setting. My world building is not the best, but it gets better over time, so bear with me on the early chapters! P.S: Cover art not mine I just edited it. If you're the owner and want me to take it down you can notify me. Other novel: Lunar:Secret Guardians Check it out as well! Discord Server: https://discord.gg/gs68a4ZzaN

HouseLv15

First of all the chapters are way to short. They are like 400 words and that's just unacceptable in my book. You get into the chapters and boom its over not even a scroll. The chap takes like 1 minute to read. I don't know about u but this seriously annoys me because its hard to get into the "mood" / "setting". Secondly the flow of the story is so slow. Its been like 120 chapters and noting happened. He killed a few monsters and that's it. His personality is all over the place. Says he won't save them because it won't give him any benefits saves them anyway. Half helps them then leaves them hanging. Ether you save them or you don't don't do it halfway because then its just a ****ing waste of time. Has this way to let people become his employees "aka workers or slaves" so they can't tell anyone his secrets. Doesn't use it for like 100+ chapters. He isn't using his abilities to the "fullest" and that's so illogical. Like says hes priority is to save his mom. Doesn't do it for 100+ chapters because reasons & he likes to waste time for no reason. Has a shit ton of mono log for no FUCKING REASON LIKE EVERY CHAPTER. Fucked up the slow ass flow even more. Rough flow of what happened till chap 120ish, Comes back from the future & know that the "apocalypse" will happen Saves his friend & some other peeps and puts them on hold (now we are at like chap 10-15) Now he leaves them to save is mom i think that was the reason. Kills a few monsters (takes like 1-2 cha**) Runs in to this girl who has a big role in the future. Follows her for some reason. Fights a bit more (1-2-3) chaps Sells some items to system Finds base where it its assumed his mother is. Goes inside with the click from the girl (army) This is all that happened in 120 chapters. You might say WOW that's allot. But let me tell you something its not like more then half the chapters until now are like shitty mono-log inside MC head or some other useless chitchat we don't ****ing need but takes up words that are already in short demand in his chapters. Like I seriously don't know how to convay my disappointment in this story. If Master of time is a 5 this is a 2 at most. Might be one of his worst books I have read of this author. Also lets talk about the tags. Its been like 120 chaps so we should have a feeling for the tags until now. #R-18 -> No, Where he has not even looked at a girl except his old gf in the first few chapters #System -> Sure but its a system where everyone can see his system prompt. (Well we the readers can't see it because author doesn't even show it) #Harem -> Nope, MC hasn't even show intention towards anyone let alone more then one. (So if your here looking for R18 & harem, your shit out of luck just like me) #Overpowered MC -> Well hard to say author keeps saying he is overpowered and all but in reality we haven't seen MC use his powers really. Also he puts all his stat-points in Charisma (weird right) So will he be as weak as a normal human for the rest of the novel? Who knows lets find out later I guess because all he did was kill some monsters with a gun. So I don't know if you call this overpowered. I don't even know how author is going to pull of saying that MC is super overpowered and all when all he has are normal human stats. Sure he can craft guns & magic but soon everyone will be able to do that so what abut MC. How will he handle someone who is like 50 x his speed how will author pull of saying he will be able to "kill" the guy when he will be so fast. So we don't really know yet. The only overpowered thing might be his knowledge & his skills that are still LOCKED. # Merchant MC -> Sure he is a merchant. #Survival -> words seems a bit stale for now. But lets find out later I guess. #Historical -> don't really know what to make of this tag. #Ruthless MC -> kinda but then again he did save all those people for no fucking reason. #Opportunistic MC -> Sure he won't leave the chance to make some money. #Villainous MC -> 50/50 We still need to see he is not really villainous for now. So all in all its not bad I'm just disappointed in the author. Writing Quality ⭐⭐⭐ its ok. Stability of Updates⭐⭐ Looked fast in the beginning but it looks like it slowed down allot. He updates like 400 words like every two days. That's the same as like one normal chapter a week that's so slow. Story Development⭐⭐ Meh noting really happened until now Character Design⭐⭐ Noting special. (would like a more decisive MC) World Background ⭐⭐ ⭐ Normal. So all in all its really noting special. Ill keep updating this review in the comments.

Well, that's most disappointing work from you that I ever see. If I wouldn't know who write it, I would never guess. It's a simple story. Post-apocalyptic with second chance and mature mc. Yeah, one of those. What makes it special? You already could guess from the name. And that's one part of what wrong with this novel. It's extremely boring. And his unique occupation doesn't help in the slightest. He don't have intresting abilities or much strength of his own(duuh), and whole using of others doesn't come intresting either. Because it's not some emperor that rule over people , but boss and employees /slaves. You can feel difference just from words. 70 chapters just info dumps after info dumps. Chapters really short. And there is no intresting characters either. Most of the time we just see how mc makes logical decisions and trying to be useful... Or given more information. Character mc is other problem. It's logical that he turns out the way that he is acting and he's choices are very pragmatic...but it's just that. There is nothing to talk about. Well aside times that he doesn't act like he is supposed to act, and helping out after he confirms 3 times in his head that this is useless act... Already could see how he trying to create his own organization and bring as many people as he can. Because it's actually logical decision ... Still nothing interesting. In the end. It's just a cliche story about second chance in appocalypsis. That's all...

I like the witing of mister erosire thats why it 5 start But its getiing repetetive like going around the circle For example he got in dangerous situation and he will tell that he can get out but wont or i know how but i cant not yet like he shocasing how op he is in every chapter i mean he is op but not yet while he is doing his thing he not even an aspect that i think is unkillable but acting as such The issue about saving all that he loves he essentially not doing it like for his mother he is saying that its a priority but always delaying it just because the tracker say its fine what i mean is like the mc know that the author wont make it hard for him
