Synopsis
It is said that you shouldn't meet your heroes. Gehaldirah, a high elf of royal bloodline didn't have to meet the realm lord of High Heaven before he became disillusioned. His admiration for the paragon of the high elf race turned into hatred when he got some damning knowledge about why demons kept attacking his home and looting the sacred tree of life. His hatred for the realm lord turned to self-hatred for his weakness and mediocrity. Gehaldirah had a moment of introspection. He isn't at the bottom of the ladder in this strength-based hierarchy. He is a king of law, but that apparently isn't enough to guarantee your fate. His strength is also mediocre because it was granted to him because of his bloodline. He determined he had to change himself. He has to become better. He concocted a plan that is one part genius and one part greed. His plan for reincarnation led him to the trial of heaven that occurs every origin cycle. He needed Origin essence so he participated in the trial. He got more than he wanted from the trial. His plan for reincarnation would be a success after some adjustments. But now he has a different aim. He won't aim for just the realm lord. The realm lord has control of the High Heaven Realm. That isn't enough for Geraldirah anymore. He became greedier. He has his sight set on the movers and shakers of the Void Universe. Only the power to subvert the will of World Gods will do. The plan to create LEGION, the ultimate organism was then hatched. If one person cannot achieve something, what about a multitude of them? His journey will not be easy. He will have to overcome Celestials and their Celestial Supreme, Gods and their GodKings, Demon kings and their Demon gods. The Void Universe is full of obstacles that will like nothing more than to put an end to his path. It is not that they hate him. They will oppose him simply because the era of conquest is coming. There are no friends in the era of conquest. It is everyone for themselves. And he will use everything and everyone for the advancement of Legion. AUTHOR: I cannot promise that you will like it.

A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper. "Ruth!" ******************* They say that there are only two types of people in the world - good and bad. Good people get happiness in their life while bad ones have to pay for their wrongdoings.

Das Paarungsritual: Sie kam für das Gold, doch ging gründlich benutzt

Warnung: Dieses Buch enthält eine große Anzahl sehr heißer Szenen für Erwachsene!(18+ NUR) *BITTE NICHT LESEN, WENN DU EMPFINDLICH AUF INTENSIVE INTIME SZENEN REAGIERST* "Sag, dass du uns gehörst." Nicholas' Hand schloss sich fester um meinen Hals ... nicht würgend, nur haltend, um mich daran zu erinnern, wem jeder meiner Atemzüge gehörte. Seine silbernen Augen brannten sich unerbittlich und fordernd in meine. "Sag es, Lilith." "Ich gehöre euch", flüsterte ich, und die Worte schmeckten zugleich nach Hingabe und Erlösung. "Lauter." Sebastians Stimme war dunkle Seide hinter mir, sein massiger Körper an meinen Rücken gepresst, seine Hände hinterließen Abdrücke auf meinen Hüften. "Wir wollen dich schreien hören." Bevor ich antworten konnte, stieß Lucian von hinten in mich und füllte mich so vollständig aus, dass ich Sterne sah. Die Dehnung, die Fülle, das überwältigende Gefühl, in Besitz genommen zu werden ... es raubte mir jeden Gedanken. "Ich bin ...", versuchte ich zu sprechen, aber dann hob Nicholas mein Bein an, brachte sich in Position, und plötzlich drang er von vorne in mich ein, und ich wurde von beiden gleichzeitig genommen. Zu viel. Zu ausgefüllt. Zu intensiv. "Atme", befahl Nicholas an meinen Lippen, aber Atmen war unmöglich, als sie sich beide bewegten und einen Rhythmus fanden, der mich heftig zwischen ihnen zittern ließ. "Ich gehöre euch!" Das Geständnis riss endlich aus meiner Kehle, als Lucians Mund die empfindliche Stelle an meinem Hals fand, seine Zähne darüber schabten und drohten, mich dauerhaft zu zeichnen. "Ich gehöre euch, ich gehöre euch, ich gehöre euch ..." "Braves Mädchen", knurrten alle drei unisono. "Jetzt beweis es." Lilith Thorne geht unter. Ihr Vater ... der Beta des Schattenmoor-Rudels ... wurde vor sechs Monaten ermordet. Ihre Mutter hat eine Überdosis Eisenhut genommen und liegt im Koma. Ihr Freund hat seinen wahren Gefährten gefunden und sie wie Müll weggeworfen. Und sie ist wolfslos ... eine Ausgestoßene in der Wolfsgesellschaft, unfähig sich zu wandeln, wertlos und unsichtbar. Angesichts der drohenden Zwangsräumung und der erdrückenden Krankenhausrechnungen trifft Lilith eine verzweifelte Entscheidung: Sie nimmt am Ritus teil, einem uralten Ritual, bei dem unverpaarte Alphas für eine Nacht Frauen gegen Gold beanspruchen können. Aber sie wird nicht mit irgendwelchen Alphas gepaart. Sie wird von Lucian, Nicholas und Sebastian Blackwood auserwählt ... den Verfluchten Alpha-Königen. Drillinge, die von der Mondgöttin verflucht wurden, ihren wahren Gefährten zu finden, bevor sie 26 werden, oder sich für immer an ihre Wölfe zu verlieren. Ihnen bleiben noch drei Monate. Was als eine Transaktion beginnt, wird zu einer Obsession. In dem Moment, in dem sie sie berühren, legt sich ihr Fluch. Ihre Wölfe erkennen etwas in ihr. Und sie können sie nicht gehen lassen. Aber Lilith ist nicht die, die sie zu sein scheint. Sie ist die letzte Tochter der mächtigsten Hexenblutlinie, die es gibt, ihre Magie wurde seit ihrer Geburt unterdrückt. Und wenn diese Magie erwacht, wird es alles verändern. Als sie endlich die Wahrheit erfährt ... dass das Brechen ihres Fluchs bedeutet, ihn auf sich zu nehmen ... trifft Lilith eine Entscheidung, die alles verändern wird. Sie opfert sich, um sie zu retten, und stirbt in ihren Armen, während sie ihren Namen schreien. Aber der Tod ist nicht das Ende. Er ist erst der Anfang. Und wenn sie aus der Asche aufersteht, vom Tod gezeichnet und mit Kräften, die sie sich nie hätte vorstellen können, wird sie nicht mehr das gebrochene Mädchen sein, das in den Ritus gegangen ist. Sie wird etwas weitaus Gefährlicheres sein. Ihre Gefährtin. Ihre Königin. Ihre Erlösung. Oder ihre Zerstörung. Teil 1: DIE INBESITZNAHME Wie tief würdest du für drei Könige fallen, die dich wie eine Religion verehren und dich wie eine Eroberung beanspruchen? Teil 2: DIE AUFERSTEHUNG Wie dunkel würdest du werden, um zurückzuerobern, was der Tod dir gestohlen hat? Das Paarungsritual ist eine dunkle paranormale Romanze mit besitzergreifenden Alphas, intensivem sexuellen Inhalt, einer starken, aber gebrochenen Heldin, die ihre Macht entdeckt, gefundener Familie, schicksalhaften Gefährten und einer Liebe, die so verzehrend ist, dass sie den Tod selbst überwindet.

Of Flames and Gold

[My WSA 2024 Entry novel! Please vote] In a world where mythical beings have fallen into an "eternal slumber," a thriving underground market exploits the stolen essence of these dormant creatures. At its epicenter are dragons—majestic beings desired for their scales, organs, and prized eggs. The most coveted treasure of all is a dragon's name, a key that holds the power to control its very existence. Dragon Lord, guardian of a clutch of dormant eggs, lives in isolation atop a hill, surrounded by a forest that veils his castle. He bears the scars of past betrayals, having been deceived by those who feigned love to steal his treasures or claim his head as a bounty. Jaded and cold, he trusts no one, living a solitary existence. However, his solitude is shattered when a woman unwittingly stumbles into his life. Yara finds herself in Dragon Lord's treasured den amidst a battle between the dragon and thieves. In a twist of fate, she mistakenly bonds with the dormant eggs, breathing life into them. Reluctantly, Dragon Lord allows Yara into his world, and their journey unfolds amid the looming threat of underground organizations seeking to exploit the dragons for profit. As the eggs come to life, so does an unexpected connection between Dragon Lord and Yara. Despite his cold and jaded exterior, he finds himself unable to ignore her presence. Yara, too, cannot deny the pull she feels towards him, and emotions begin to burn beneath the surface. Together, they must navigate the challenges of waiting for the eggs to hatch, fend off those who seek to exploit the dragon and its offspring, and confront the secrets that Yara harbors—a revelation that could destroy everything. In this tale of flames and gold, two scarred souls in a world where trust is a rare and precious commodity must confront the ghosts of their pasts. They navigate the dangerous currents of love and deception, protecting unborn dragons from a world hungry for their magic. Will their bond withstand the trials ahead, or will the flames of betrayal engulf them in the end? A/N: It starts out SLOW, because I tend to get lost in the pages and be descriptive but once it gets to the action, it really picks up! Looking forward to growing with you all on this journey!!!

After he gave the gold coins to the old man, the librarian stared greedily at the gold coins for some seconds unable to believe his own eyes, but he quickly adjusted himself and thanked the customer, however, Arthur ignored him, he picked the books and left the building, the old man didn't stop speaking as he shouted at Arthur to come back if he needed any sort of book . 'He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have' even though the old man got a whopping 220 gold he still wanted more, human greed is really the worst thing in them. ...Author... just stop... because a business owner trying to get a high paying customer to return is definitely the dangerous and evil greed of humanity... It's not like they're just trying to get enough money that they can live well. Greed only becomes a dangerous trait when the person's demand for something will never be satisfied, and they'll go to any length to try and collect that thing anyway. So if I loved gold, and I could never get enough, and so I ran around killing anyone as long as they had gold. That would be when greed becomes a legitimately negative trait. Did the old man do something like that? No, he's just running a business. Just chill out with the 'humans are inherently evil and disgusting' ****, man. If you're going to try and talk about the greed that humans can hold in their heart, at least think about what's actually happening in the story you're writing first.

The Cave of Greed

In "Cave of Greed", some players mentioned that 40% of the physical damage dealt by monsters to players (including those blocked by shields) would trigger reflected damage. However, if the defense was high and the physical damage received was low, the reflected damage would also be reduced. In the Hero map and Distortion, the reflected damage percentage of the thorns was 15% of the damage. After the 15% was offset by the defense, it would be the damage dealt to the players. For example, if a player had 1,000,000 Frost Bullets, their reflected damage would be 1,500,000. If the player's Physical Defense was 2,000 and their Defense was not reduced by the monster, the number of Frost Bullets would be 152/(15 + 2)= 13.240,000. At the same time, some players felt that the reflected damage was not very effective. The damage that was reflected back was not even as good as a scratch. This was because the damage dealt by the monster was too low, and the monster's HP was very high. It was impossible to rely on oneself to counter death. Unless the reflected damage was calculated according to the percentage of the monster's HP, it would not be of much use. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Greed, anger, and obsession were the three poisons mentioned by Buddhism. They referred to the excessive paranoia of likes and dislikes, the excessive paranoia of dislikes, and the fundamental unreasonable reality. Greed refers to having greedy thoughts about the object of one's love, anger refers to hatred, resentment, and the psychology of harming others, and obsession refers to the darkness of one's mind and ignorance. These three kinds of troubles were thought to be the root causes of human troubles, hindering the understanding of nature. Greed, anger, and foolishness were the shortcomings of human nature and needed to be overcome through cultivation. The purpose of cultivation was to comprehend, to be aware, to seek proof, and to let the heart obtain true freedom. The specific methods to overcome it included precepts, meditation, and wisdom, which purified the mind through precepts, meditation, and wisdom. The overcoming of greed, anger, and obsession also required correct cognition and behavior, as well as the guidance of education and culture.

Forced to become a national server for the sake of a house

Ever since Nan Yu retired, Tong Cheng, as a teaching assistant, had complained to Nan Yu. For example, the person in charge said that they were trash. For example, the second team implied that they would collapse sooner or later. Another example would be the opposing team encouraging their members to jump ship. One day, Nan Yu smiled and said,"Do you want to buy a house?" "Yes!" Tong Cheng nodded. I want to buy one that is 50 square meters." Nan Yu: "You've got some potential. There's a chance for you to buy a 300-square-meter house." "Go ahead." Tong Cheng sat down obediently. "Inherit my position and become the wild core of the team." Tong Cheng was speechless. Refuse!" "My highest salary is 500,000 a month," replied Nan Yu. "I bought a house and a car in two years." Tong Cheng was a little tempted. Nan Yu continued."Once it becomes a national server, no one will dare to gossip. Your word is the word." "When you retire, you will have a lot of spare money in your hands. You can open a shop and eat for the rest of your life." "Then I'll reluctantly agree." -- This was a story of being forced to operate. There would always be a 300-square-meter house in front of them, and there would always be people chasing after them with the belief that they could earn 500,000 yuan a month.
