Synopsis

In the world of Gaia, humanity ruled the world for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of years, and lord over all creation. However, a single cataclysmic event changed everything, subverting what was regarded as the natural order and placing humanity at the bottom of the food chain. The animals that humanity once knew and regarded as pets and livestock became terrifying beasts with monstrous strength and a horrible grudge that threatens the extinction of humankind. Kingdoms fell, lands were lost, and many lives perished as humanity retreated to their final haven, the Human Domain, an unnatural piece of land surrounded by high mountains. With the high mountains as their walls and a great wall that took all of humanity to build as their gate, humanity successfully stopped the beast tides' advances and herald in a new era of peace. Five hundred years later, the long-standing peace of humanity finally turned turbulent once more. In the new era of chaotic changes, Leon awakened the memories of his past life and arrived at a crossroad in his life. To stop at nothing in his pursuit of power and vengeance of his past life, or to lead the struggling humans in the battle against the threat of extinction and herald them into an era of true prosperity. Follow Leon on his journey as the two worlds of past and present collide, exploring the mysteries of the universe, and discovering something much bigger than himself. =====Bonus Chapter Missions===== 500 GT - 1 Bonus chapter 1000 GT - 2 Bonus chapters 1500 GT - 3 Bonus chapters 2000 GT - 4 Bonus chapters Note: GT = Golden Tickets [Currently on break] =====Tags===== [Reincarnation] [Fantasy] [Eastern Fantasy] [Western Elements] [Weak-to-Strong] [Adventure] [Mystery] [Action] [R-18] [Harem] [Ecchi] [Smut] [Polygamy] [Cultivation] [Alchemy] [Arrays] [Formations] [Runes] [Apocalypse] [Elves] [Demons] [Beasts] [Dragons] [Phoenixes] [Gods] [Devils] [Laws] [Magic] [Vast Universe] [Multiple Worlds] [Love Interests Fall in Love First] [Overpowered MC]...

Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

What would you do if almost everyone around you saw you as a hindrance or not at all? What if your own father was one of those who wished you gone? That is the story of Rosemary's life. Ever since the death of her mother during accident where only she survived, Rose has felt useless. Despite her best attempts to ignore the hurtful glances and words of the royal court and her father, she can't help but feel like a wilted flower. It becomes so bad that she considers ending it all, until she is rescued by a handsome young man with cold violet eyes who promises to change her world. ---- Before long, I reached a stone bridge overlooking Kaguya river. Luckily for me, the place was empty at the moment. Although, would anyone have even bothered saving a wretch like me? At most, they probably would have just watched as I met my end in a moment of morbid curiosity. And as I stood at the edge, I remembered all the times I had cried. All the times I had hurt. But now, I was ready. I smiled as the wind whipped around me. It was time to end it. Turning around, I let my body fall backwards into the river. The sky was a sea of stars. The city lights around me sparkled like gems. It was so beautiful. For the first time in a long time, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. I didn't regret it. No, I had finally found the courage to stand up for myself in my very own way. The water was high, so the fall itself didn't kill me instantly as I had hoped. As the river enveloped me, I closed my eyes. This was the end of my journey. A journey full of misery and tragedy. If there was another life, I hoped it would be better than this one. "Sis!" I heard a voice scream. Orlin! My brother came for me? What was he doing here? Had he followed me? But why? Did he care about me? Or was it just pity? No, right? Surely at least one person in this world loved me. Why had I given up on myself so soon? I knew he loved me. Yet, I still went through with this stupid decision. I allowed those girls and Father's words inhibit my better judgment... "Sis, where are you? Rose! Please show yourself! I want to talk!" Ore yelled at the top of his lungs. Right, my life was not all misery and tragedy. There were faint glimmers of joy and hope left. Ore was a big part of that. How selfish of me... I was actually about to abandon my brother. I tried to resurface, but my swimming skills weren't the best. To make matters worse, the current was far too strong. If not for the current, I would have at least been able to dog paddle over to the edge with some effort. My right hand broke through the fierce waters and was yanked by another hand. I was pulled out of the murky depths and saw a pair of cold violet eyes staring back at me. Father? No, it wasn't him. Although, those eyes felt familiar. Before I could make out the face of my rescuer clearly, darkness swept over me. Was it too late? I didn't want to die... Not anymore!

Capture The Blue-Eyed CEO

"I don't look like a prostitute because I am not one." she coldly smiles at his questioning gaze as she sips her coffee. 'Jerk!!' she screams in her head. "My apologies." he sincerely said, seeing the expression on her face. "But why do you have a key to this room." "Well, probably because this is MY room." she spat her words as she put down her coffee on top of the coffee table. She chose a magazine with the Kardeshians on the cover and put down her cup on top of it. He scoffed at this girl watching him with open distaste on her pretty face. He would admit that he felt insulted with how she acted now when just a while ago she was feasting on his body while he was on the phone. "You change your mind easily, huh?" he said mockingly. "Just a few minutes ago, you said you like me." "Well, a girl sure can change her mind, as many times as she wants. If you want to change my mind, you could stand up and turn around so I could see you from behind because you see, I prefer a guy with a nice pair of ass." ........................ Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. When her flight was canceled due to a heavy storm, she had a one-night stand with a stranger that happened to be the future CEO of one of the top five pharmaceutical companies in the world. However, the next time they met, he did not remember her! But is it a reason enough to take revenge? If it was, how far would she go to soothe her wounded ego? Was it really just her pride that got hurt? What really happened that night? And how does a night with a stranger change Jess's life?

Once upon a time, there was a small town where everyone loved to dance. And the song 'Cotton Eyed Joe' was all the rage. One day, a clumsy cowboy named Billy decided to show off his dance moves to this song at the local barn dance. He twirled and stomped with great enthusiasm, but his horse, who was tied outside, got spooked by the noise. The horse broke free and ran into the dance floor, causing chaos. People were jumping out of the way, and Billy was trying to catch his horse while still doing the Cotton Eyed Joe steps. It was a hilarious sight that the whole town talked about for weeks.
