Estaria, the Goddess of creation and eradication. The daughter of the God of destruction and the Goddess of life. Her father has been dead ever since she was born, and her mother disappeared without leaving a trace. In desperate times, as she grew old, she decided to bring her father back to life. But she had no idea where her father was. So, with nothing else to use, she thought of just recreating him through reincarnation. But the reincarnation process needed a woman whose body was strong enough to host the reincarnated vessel. With no options left, she crafted smaller deities using her own fresh and blood. Many of them failed. But one whom she named Nanako succeeded bearing a child she then named Hajime. Yet Hajime wasn't exactly what she expected.

But she was unaware of them due to one of the souls having fragments of his memories from when he was still alive in his past life. The other soul had completely forgotten everything, but bit by bit as the individual called Hajime journeys this new world, the memories of the other soul would start to retain giving him split personalities.

Alternative Universe. A lot of nonsense ideas, questionable logic, and a plot that might or might not exist. Honestly, I’m not even sure this thing deserves to be called a plot. If you already hated the first two chapters, don’t continue reading. Save yourself the time. Also, don’t leave your personal “this should be like this” or “that should be like that” opinions. This story was never written to satisfy every reader. In fact, I wouldn’t even strongly recommend this fan fiction. It exists mostly as something I wrote for myself, a way to pass time and explore a few ridiculous “what if” ideas. As usual, the OC dies, gains some power, and gets reincarnated into a crossover world where many things don’t make sense. My Hero Academia will be the main world, but since this is an AU, expect plenty of deviations and unexpected elements. To be completely honest, this fan fiction is basically just a creative experiment. It’s not meant to be taken too seriously. It simply exists to answer a random “what if” scenario that crossed my mind. This is written in a light novel style, and the pacing is slow. (￣ー￣) . . . One Piece was created by Eiichiro Oda, who began the series in 1997 and turned it into the best-selling manga in history. Naruto was authored by Masashi Kishimoto, who launched the ninja epic in 1999, exploring themes of loneliness and perseverance. Bleach was created by Tite Kubo, who introduced his stylish supernatural story about Shinigami in 2001. Finally, My Hero Academia (MHA) was created by Kohei Horikoshi in 2014, blending traditional shonen elements with strong inspiration from Western superhero comics. . . . Maki is the OC. Originally just a random guy. . . . The cover image isn’t mine. I found it on Google. . . . If you’re 18 or below, go somewhere else. This isn’t for you. Also, I’m typing this on my phone’s keyboard, so expect plenty of typos and mistakes. If you’re still planning to read this, you might need to turn off your brain for a bit. (Not literally.) . . . Most importantly, I’m not interested in reading comments about how the story “should” be written. “This should happen.” “That should change.” “I hate this.” “I hate that.” First of all, this is my fan fiction. So instead of lecturing someone else about how they should write, why not create your own story? I’m writing my own nonsense for my own reasons, not to meet someone else’s personal standards. . . . Peace out. “Why publish it? Simple. I wrote it, so I published it. Not for approval, not for views , and certainly not to babysit everyone’s fragile opinions. I’ve warned you from the start—this isn’t for everyone. If the first chapter made you roll your eyes, feel free to leave quietly. Don’t stick around to sprinkle your bitterness and unsolicited critiques across my work. This story exists on my terms, not yours, and that’s the entire point.” .. .. .. .. .. .. For the people who still don’t get it, let me make this painfully simple. I’m not here to entertain your personal opinions, essays, or whatever intellectual gymnastics you’re trying to perform in the comment section. If you’re here to rant, argue, or prove how loudly you can misunderstand something, congratulations. You’ll be banned. Feel free to keep shouting into the void somewhere else. You’re absolutely free to display just how impressively low your reading comprehension can go. Freedom of expression is a wonderful thing, especially when it reveals exactly how little someone understood in the first place. For the readers who actually came here to read quietly and enjoy the story for what it is, you’re welcome here. That’s the entire point. [ Sorry, the story doesn’t revolve around a random reader who thinks their opinion is law. ] Readers accept that not every story is for them. Fake critics believe every story exists for their approval.

In a world shattered by an ancient disaster, humans rule, and beasts are enslaved. Humanity dominates through mana and matrices, refined into rigid systems that determine status, survival, and worth. Beasts exist beneath them, bound by collars and chains, their strength reduced to mere raw Instinct and obedience. Two races. Two paths. One order that was forcefully imposed. Until something began to change. A hundred years ago, a meteor tore through the sky, carrying a dragon’s roar and a destiny that did not belong to this world. What fell from the skies that day wasn’t whole, and what survived was never meant to remain divided. A human child was born in one of the most oppressed corners of the world. But something inside him was wrong. His instincts pushed him to act when others hesitated. Power around him faltered in unfamiliar ways. Neither the human Matrix nor the beast Instinct fully accepted him, as if something essential within him had been displaced rather than lost. As he grew, he was drawn toward Scars, places where the world itself has been wounded, and to the echoes that feel distant, yet intimately his own. Each step forward brought more fragments of understanding, never enough on their own, always pointing elsewhere. Every advance forced a choice: to submit, to break, or to become something the world couldn’t classify. This is a story of survival in a world built on hierarchy. Of power born from failure rather than perfection. And of an identity that was shaped by absence as much as presence. In a world that enslaves beasts and controls humans, something divided has begun to move. And when what was scattered starts to return, this world will no longer be enough. ================================== Discord: https://discord.gg/3q2GJdk27D

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get a second chance? To relive your past, correct your mistakes, and undo your regrets— only to discover that such a gift might be a curse. After living fifteen full years, Kevin and Julie wake up as ten-year-olds, forced back into childhood with the belief that their adult lives were nothing more than a dream. But the dream refuses to fade. It reshapes their minds, sharpens their instincts, and awakens abilities no child should possess. In a bustling Nigerian town where gossip travels faster than truth, where faith outweighs reason and superstition is never dismissed, Kevin begins seeing the future in painful, involuntary flashes—visions that grow longer, clearer, and more dangerous with time. Julie manifests a different curse: she absorbs the emotions of those around her, and when she loses control, those feelings erupt outward, overwhelming minds and warping reality itself. Surviving primary school becomes harder than adulthood ever was. Friends turn hostile, families grow unstable, and childhood becomes a fragile performance they must maintain. As they adapt, the truth behind the dream begins to surface—not as prophecy, but as memory. What begins as a struggle to control strange powers evolves into a supernatural coming-of-age story rooted in the cultural rhythms of modern Nigeria, where prayer is protection, fear is inherited, and the unseen is always watching. As Kevin and Julie’s abilities escalate, whispers of angels, demons, and forces beyond religion draw closer, revealing that their awakening was no accident—and the dream was only the beginning.
