Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds.
With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations.
In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind.
However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.
"The Author has decided to discontinue this story. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Thirteen words.
That's all it takes to shatter the world of "Aetheric Chronicles"—the year's most acclaimed fantasy webnovel. For thousands of readers, it's heartbreak. For the mysterious masked figure in the final chapter, it's an unfinished destiny. But for Alex, the story's most passionate fan, it's nothing short of betrayal.
Then comes the message: "If you truly wish to know the rest of the story..."
One mysterious message.
And one simple reply.
That's all it takes for Alex's world to turn upside down. Now, he's about to discover that some stories refuse to end, even when their authors abandon them. And sometimes, the most passionate readers must become part of the tale they love.
In a world where prophecies fail, characters rebel, and plotlines unravel, being the "strongest reader" might not be enough.
After all, what happens when an unfinished story decides to write itself?
"Some stories choose their readers. Others consume them."

Hell is empty and all the devils are here.
Shakespeare – [The Tempest]
As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down.
Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules:
First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM.
Second, do not interact with Rui Ye.
On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected.
“I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.”
In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?”
But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late.

She watched the sun set through the tinted glass, rays blazing over the water, setting it aflame. Elize looked dreamily at the sea and said, "This looks too beautiful to be real."
"No Liz," said Caleb. Elize turned her gaze to meet him, and he was... mesmerized. In a breathy voice, he said, "You are… surreal. Do you know when I saw you for the first time, I thought I had met an angel?"
Her cheeks became pink like the sky outside. A smile tugged her lips up as his sunstruck eyes held her gaze. "When I first saw you, I was done for my life. Your blond hair, those sharp curves— it all acted like a magnet." His heart thudded in its ribcage and his pulse raced.
She took a sip of her wine with trembling hands without realizing that it wasn't blood.
"And that instant I knew you were my mate. And that instant I knew that I could die looking at you."
There was so much intensity in his words that Elize's heart raced for this beautiful man. She wanted to go to him and place a kiss on his lips. Her flute shook on its way to her lips. She drained it absentmindedly and her head became dizzy immediately.
Caleb came to her side the next instant. He took the glass from her and placed it on the table. Stroking her back softly, he apologized to her for giving her the champagne. She coughed a little and some tears poured out in response when she felt the burn of the wine in the back of her throat. But Caleb had paled so much by that time that she couldn't help giggling. "Since you didn't remember, it is your punishment that you drink the entire bottle of wine and then next."

I remember the darkness.
I remember dying.
'Beep…Beep…Beep.' I heard in the distance, echoing throughout the cavernous purgatory I was standing in. My chest hurt; my ribcage ached. I felt dissociated from my body, my head was foggy.
“We’re losing her! You have to upload now.” A voice shouted, it echoed in my head and I covered my ears to shut out the sharp noise. I floated, listening to the steady sound in the background. The beeping was getting more erratic, it was an alarm siren blaring in my head.
“Please don’t go, don’t leave me!” A little girl cried. My heart wrenched, I screamed out in frustration, running blindly around through the darkness.
“Emily?” I shouted

Locked away for centuries was the price I had to pay for saving my brother's life. He was always the light. I, the dark. The world was a better place with him in it. His personality has proven that much to me. Years upon years I had to be the spectator to his horrible life. Anger was one of the emotions that kept me going.
Now, I was summoned to the Dark Realm, a spiritual plane with the same siphoner-vampire that made my brother's life a living hell. Vengeance. The Supreme God had smiled at me. That was what I thought. The Guardian Angel who summoned us to this nightmare wanted us to work together to find the Goddess of the Realm. The prize at the end was too enticing to pass up. A chance to live in the land of the living. A chance to be with my brother. To protect him.
There was only one problem. I couldn't kill the vampire. A fair rule. Too bad it said nothing about torturing her. I was the Alpha of the darkness. Nothing like my brother. Welcome to the dark side, Princess.

Kidnapped at the age of three, Rain found herself amongst the people who put monsters and devils to shame. Subjected to their torture since young age, she turned out to be the cold-blooded killer with no emotions but was gifted some superhuman abilities. As a result, she began turning into one of those demons herself. But two little angels in the form of her brothers saved her from this eternal damnation and to protect those angels from the fate same as her, she decided to flee from the shackles of those monsters.
Rain believed herself to be one of those monsters whose sole goal in this life was only to create a safe world for her brothers. But the interference of a certain pesky man forced her to question her goal. He just barged into her life and made her believe that although she was filled with darkness, she was a fairy. “A Dark Fairy” is what he called her.

But before that he had to intern in his own company under a disguise as Kai. It was there that he met Rain. Now gone was the ruthless king of the underworld and what remained was a young puppy in love who just wanted to be noticed by this mysterious girl who had captured his heart with her hypnotizing eyes.
********
“Wha… Just what happened here?” his best friend gulped as soon as his gaze landed on a girl standing there like a demon sent by the Hades himself. “Elliot. What in the world happened here? Why does Rain look like thi… like this….”. He wanted to say demon when he heard Elliot say “Fairy.”
“Fairy??!!! Are you out if your mind? She’s clearly a Demon, okay?? A DEMON! Straight from the hell!!!” his friend trembled.
**********
Although she had escaped, she soon realised that she could never be free unless those monsters were annihilated from the face of the Earth.
Thus began a secret war. A war to save humanity. This is her journey of redemption. This is his journey to unbound her from the darkness within her. The story of his assistance to her quests, complimenting her where she lacked. He thought that he was lucky enough to get a chance to join her in this war but unknown to him, he had already signed up for this war before he even met her.
But what is it that they are fighting? What is it that she is protecting her brothers from? How was Elliot involved in this war before he even knew her? Will she be able to overcome the darkness within her to lead a happy life?
Let’s accompany Rain on her excursion to find the answers.
