the rise of the black plain

"I want to retire." One of the elites in the army, Luke, complained silently as he wanted to take a break from his job. Duty bound as a soldier and genius as a mage from a famous magic academy, Luke had achieved the rank of corporal in his younger age. One day on a mission, there's storm going on inside his country as conspiracies brewing in secret. 'Who cares about the country, go to hell!' thought Luke, as he avoided a barrage of bullets and ran away for his life before his body would be shred to pieces. In the last second before the explosion hit him, time stopped and some unknown force pulled him from the fabric of reality, placing him in a place far away from home. The mystic land of dragons, inner energy, and demons. "What the--"

Alex is the young master of the richest family in the world, a man whom many princesses want to marry. However, he’s treated worse than a nanny by his mother-in-law

"Ciccio," she spoke, taking a purposeful step forward. "In the realm of business, there exists a strategy known as 'the hostile takeover.' It revolves around the idea of 'if you can't beat them, buy them.' Since you are dissatisfied with the way this hospital is managed and how the staff treat patients, rather than struggling to pay the bills amidst difficulty, why not consider acquiring the hospital itself?"

Silence. That's all I ever wanted. But here's the thing about silence. It comes in different flavors. There's the peaceful kind, when you're alone in your room at 2 AM. Then there's the suffocating kind I got at school. High school was already a special kind of hell for me. Empty wallet, empty lunch tray, empty seat next to me in every class. The usual stuff. Emily was the only one who made it bearable - until she wasn't. *Snap.* That's how quick it happened. One moment she's my best friend, the next? She's telling people things.. embarrassing things I trusted her with. Things I'd never told anyone else. She even lied! God, I can still hear the whispers. See the smirks. Feel the stares burning into my back. I went from being invisible to being a walking target. And it's funny how being ignored starts to feel like a luxury when you're dodging spit balls and "accidentally" dropped lunch trays. But then... *something* changed. You ever get that feeling? Like there's this... I dunno, this *presence* in your head? Not like voices or anything crazy. More like... you know when you're playing a video game and suddenly unlock a new ability? Yup. It's that kind of feeling. It started small. Just little things at first. But now? *tap tap tap* My fingers drum on the desk while I write. The tapping makes little shakes in the wood. Each tap feels like a small promise. I used to think rock bottom was a place. Well ladies and gentlemen, it turns out.. that it's more like a launch pad. And yeah, maybe I don't have everything figured out yet. Maybe I'm still piecing together what this... *thing* inside me is. But I do know one thing: They're gonna wish they'd left me invisible.

It was a day like any other in the City of Buenos Aires, children at school and adults at work.

Glenn Brawijaya lived as he wanted. He relied too much on the wealth of his parents and didn't want to bother with anything because he always believed that his parents' wealth would be inherited to him. However, what happened if he was hit by something he never expected? Even, his extended family's wealth fell into the hands of his uncle after his parents had an accident that killed both of them. He even had to be expelled from his luxurious home.  Then, what would he do? Would Glenn take back what was rightfully his? Or just stay silent and accepted the fate?

Though blind, Darien supported Cersei as she built her company. When Cersei asked for a divorce, saying Darien was mediocre and a burden, he was left alone, broken, humiliated and dejected.
