A thorny path

Josefine_4852
She was kneeling on the cold stone floor of the main hall with her hands tied behind her back. Not daring to face the intruders she kept her head low and her gaze fixed on the ground. She was only wearing a nightgown and her messily tied hair had started to come undone, causing lose strands of auburn colored hair to cover her face. She was thin; way to thin as most would probably say. Her beautiful features were concealed by sunken cheeks, dark circles and a dull complexion. Beside her was the rest of the family, all of them kneeling in a row with their hands tied back. She hadn’t gotten a good look but from the corner of her eye her father had appeared to be badly beaten... *** The man who had killed her family that night had been truly terrifying. His face was entirely unfeeling as he beheaded them and he did not flinch when their bodies hit the floor. So why had that man defied the king's orders just to spare her life? Amelia thought that her miserable life would continue being filled with nothing but abuse. She had not expected that she would be treated kindly, both by him and by his servants. And she had certainly not expected that she would slowly begin to let her guard down aroud him. *** (Cover art from pinterest)

I Became Final Boss

Fifteen years ago, John transmigrated to Blue Star—a world identical to Earth in every way, except for its name. To everyone else, John was just an average man living a quiet life. But every time John slept, he entered a game world known as the Dao World that felt more real than reality itself. The dream world was a vast cultivation landscape governed by ancient Taoist laws, and John wasn't anybody; he has ability of infinite resurrection in dream, whenever he died, he would wake up in the real world, and when he slept next time, he would start the dream where he had left off With no competitors and the ability to "respawn" after every dream-death, John spent fifteen years relentlessly advancing. He broke through the shackles of mortality, transcended the laws of physics, and finally achieved the legendary Godless Realm. Known across the heavens as the Sage Emperor, he stood at the absolute peak of existence. Then, the "Game" officially launched and became Reality. The sky over Blue Star shattered. A cold, mechanical voice echoed in the minds of billions: [System Initialised: The Great Migration has begun.] [Target World: The Primordial Realm.] [Quest: Slay the Tyrant!] [Description: The Sage Emperor has achieved Supreme Authority. His reign is tyrannical and must be ended. All citizens of Blue Star are drafted as ‘Heroes’ to liberate the world.] John froze. Billions were chosen. His family. His friends. Every human on Blue Star. All granted power. All promised rewards. All sent to kill him. To survive, John makes the only choice he can— He accepts the quest. To kill himself. But as the System tightens its grip and the line between dream and reality collapses, one truth becomes clear: The world thinks it’s hunting a monster. But they have no idea… They’ve awakened something far worse.
