ROOT: Awakening

Akakaze22
One ordinary life. One random accident. One world he never knew existed. Cyrus Moore was just your average, run-of-the-mill, perpetually bored eighteen-year-old. One that was absolutely over the monotony of everyday life. His days are filled with nothing but boring classwork, half-hearted conversations, and a nagging feeling that life is passing him by. That is, until he gets hit by a car and everything changes. After waking up from the accident, Cyrus discovers he's not only alive, he's different. Strange powers begin to stir within him. Reality starts to unravel. And soon enough, he's plunged into a hidden world where magic pulses beneath the surface of modern life. Now, nothing is quite what it seems to be. Now, caught between the mystical and the mundane, Cyrus must navigate deadly enemies, magical creatures, covert organizations, and a ragtag group of others just like him-gifted, confused, and in way over their heads. In a world full of pulse-pounding action, heart-wrenching drama, and electrifying twists, Cyrus and his friends must embark on a spellbinding ride through a modern world. One where the confines of fantasy are far more real, and far more dangerous, than they seem. The awakening has begun, and reality will never be the same.

The Winged Sovereign (MHA Fan-Fic)

Not all heroes stand in the sun. Some watch from the dark, waiting for the perfect moment to change the world. Reincarnated into the superhuman society of My Hero Academia, the man who calls himself Nocturne refuses to play by the rules of the Hero Commission. Armed with a chillingly versatile power, he operates as "The Winged Sovereign," a shadow broker who deals in the currency of human desire. Once a year, he can create a single, glowing butterfly capable of unlocking a person's ultimate potential, granting them a bespoke Quirk forged from their deepest wishes. To the Quirkless knight, he offers unstoppable strength. To the anxious portal-maker, he offers absolute sanctuary. But Nocturne’s charity is also his weapon. When his empowered avatars are defeated, the butterfly returns—bringing the recipient's original Quirk and their newly manifested power directly into Nocturne's ever-growing, self-synthesizing arsenal. As the years pass and his swarm grows, the whispers of the Winged Sovereign spread through the criminal underworld and the halls of UA alike. Now, he finds himself at the center of a deadly chess match. Pro Heroes view him as an unregulated S-Class threat, while apex predators like All For One see him as the ultimate prize. Forced to carefully select his champions using his empathic Emotion Sight, Nocturne is building a shadowy network to fix a broken society. But as his powers compound and the stakes reach city-shattering heights, he must face the ultimate question: Is he orchestrating a better future, or is he simply spinning a web that will trap them all?
