Phoenix Ascendant: Reborn as a Black Lotus Slayer

"We granted you this power not for mere dalliances with handsome men, but to vanquish the black lotus in the multiverse." Astra's lips curled into a knowing smile. "Rest assured, I'm fully capable of achieving both." ------------------------ Astra Orion's life seemed perfect until tragedy struck with the loss of her mother, her father's remarriage, and her 21st birthday. That fateful evening, a grand celebration was underway, attended by her friends, family, and loving fiancé. Astra, the heiress to a prestigious architectural company, was also on the cusp of working on her most significant project yet. But fate had a cruel twist in store. An unexpected hovercar accident tragically took her life a few weeks later. In her final moments, she couldn't help but wonder if it was a merciful escape from the chaos that had befallen her once she took the reins of Orion Arch. With a sense of resignation, Astra embraced death, but the divine powers seemed to take pity on her soul. Instead of fading into the void, she found herself granted a new lease on life through a potent and mysterious system called ARCHANA. The enigmatic forces offered her a chance at immortality and an opportunity for vengeance. If she could alter her destiny and bring retribution upon those who had plotted her demise, she would earn the privilege to traverse the vast multiverse. Thirsting for revenge and driven by the revelation of the malevolent forces at play, Astra seized the opportunity with unyielding resolve. Returning to the night of her 21st birthday, she shed her former naivety and gentleness, and instead, she embraced her newfound identity as the formidable Black Lotus Slayer. With the universe's most potent system by her side, Astra embarked on a relentless quest to unravel the truth, avenge her past, and make every black lotus pay. Her heart, once filled with joy and hope, now burned with a fierce determination to reclaim her destiny and become the master of her own fate. And this time she wouldn't forget to have fun with anyone she fancied. 1x2. R18. Strong language and a lot of sexual content; read at your discretion. The cover belongs to me; I own the rights.

Watchful eyes

Silas glanced at the text message he had just received, his attention captured. Swiftly, he rose from his seat in the auditorium, spotting Astra as she made her exit from the stage. Determined, he left the auditorium with a sense of purpose.

With hurried steps, he pursued Astra as she entered the elevator. Silas managed to slip through the closing doors just in the nick of time.

As he stood near the doors, he couldn't help but notice how Astra had retreated to the rear of the elevator, startled. Silas remained poised, aware of the opportunity to have a private conversation with her, hoping to dispel her fear of him.

In a reassuring tone, Silas spoke, "Astra, I won't harm you. I promise Father won't hurt you ever again. I don't want you to live in fear of me forever."

Astra met his gaze briefly before lowering her eyes. Silas continued, "I want things to go back to the way they were."
