He Who Hunts Demons

Elmer Hills watched his parents murdered by a Demon Summon at the tender age of ten, shattering his life and whatever bright future he hoped was in store for him. Driven by hatred for demons and a thirst for revenge, he journeys to the city of Ur eight years later and becomes a Demon Hunter, making a living out of hunting the endless swarm of demons roaming the lands of Fitzroy, while he actively seeks out that which had murdered his parents. However, his path is frowned upon by the Church. Like every other illegal Demon Hunter, he is hunted down, but when he is found, he is offered a place in their ranks. Elmer accepts. After all, what better place for him to garner the resources to find the demon that has been tormenting him for years than in the Church? And besides, not only does he get paid double for his services, he becomes a Transcendent. More power was always appreciated. WHAT TO EXPECT: - Strong to Stronger MC - A very revenge-focused storyline - Expansive worldbuilding and diverse cast of races, elves, dwarves, vampires, goblins, and so much more - Lots of demon hunting and steady progression - A magic system with a mix of cultivation and rpg systems - Perfect for fans of Lord of the Mysteries, Shadow Slave, and The Witcher

Beneath the surface of the industrial world, the Awakened walk unseen, bearing mandates that grant power at a horrifying cost that accompanies wielding it.

Under The Veil

Original ONGOING Portal Fantasy / IsekaiTime LoopUrban FantasyProgressionWar and MilitaryActionMysteryPsychologicalRomanceApocalypseDystopiaFirst ContactGender BenderHigh FantasyMagitechMale LeadMartial ArtsMythosReincarnationSteampunk Warning: This fiction contains: Graphic Violence Profanity Sensitive Content On the empty street, a lone figure walked. A black coat draped over a white shirt, stained in dark, uneven patches that had yet to dry. Black trousers followed the same muted tone, blending him into the night as though he belonged to it more than the world around him. His hair was black, unremarkable at a glance, yet his eyes—sharp, brown, and unwavering—carried a quiet weight. Not exhaustion of the body, but something deeper, something that had settled within him long before this moment. Blood marked his clothes. Fresh enough to glisten faintly beneath the dim light, yet old enough to cling stubbornly, refusing to fade. The road remained silent. No footsteps but his own disturbed the stillness. No distant engines, no whisper of wind—nothing. Only a single street lamp stood above, casting a weak, yellow glow that felt… insufficient, as though it illuminated less than it should, leaving parts of the world just slightly beyond reach. And in that dim light— Something about the scene felt incomplete. Then, without warning, the streetlight flickered. Once. Then twice. Then irregularly, as though something unseen had begun interfering with its rhythm. The shadows shifted with it—but not entirely in sync. A fraction too slow. A fraction too late. As if they were no longer bound perfectly to the objects that cast them. NOTE:- Please only read if you are ready to imagine the extreme gore and all types of mortal cruelty.

Shell: Tower Climbing in a Monster's Body

The Zenith erupted from the earth—monsters, demons, and alien horrors pouring out of a million Towers, wiping out half of humanity in a single year. My parents vanished in the chaos. I didn't.

Artist Leveling - Summoning Gods With Art

Roderick Vale is a failure. In a family of Gravity mages, his only talent is turning expensive linseed oil into charcoal-smudged garbage. His brother hates him, his mom pities him, and his "masterpiece" of a noble knight looks like a stickman with a stroke. Then the stickman stepped off the canvas. It’s 2D, it smells like wet paint, and it makes the sound of tearing flesh. When the System greets Roderick, it doesn't give him fireballs or flight. It gives him the power to bring his own neurological disasters to life. Gildenfall isn't ready for an army of sentient scribbles, and honestly, neither is Roderick.

The Silver Tongued Devil

Matas is a roofer, not a hero. When a highway wreck and a red curve in the sky drop him onto the side of a forgotten mountain, there's no prophecy waiting for him—only stone, hunger, and a System that records his every choice instead of explaining any of them . Samhal survives because a buried crystal Heart keeps the worst luck off its people, quietly paying out Probability Debt so roofs don't fall and dungeon doors don't explode. Now that Heart is humming off‑beat, debt is coming due—and every "near miss" the System forgives has to be paid in blood or stone, somewhere, by someone. Drafted as a wall scout, Matas earns his bunk the only way he knows how: reading bad load paths before they kill someone and letting a hostile System wire more omen into his bones every time the village needs an "active participant." To get anyone out before the Heart fails and the rust‑choir of ten thousand trapped souls wakes, Matas will have to become exactly what this world fears—an honor‑bound Omen‑Step engineer who decides which debts get paid, and whose names get written on the ledger. Chapters post Mon/Wed/Fri Comments, follows, and saves help the story be found. If you like the direction, interact—I read and reply to all comments within 24 hours. [ Patreon ]
