Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill

Every hero starts with power. He started with dust. One moment, the classroom buzzed with teenage chatter. The next, silence fell. Students blinked—and opened their eyes in an ancient hall carved from gold and marble. The air shimmered with divine magic. And at its center stood a goddess—flawless, proud, unbelievably beautiful and wrapped in flowing white. It was a divine summoning performed by a divine goddess. Among them was Vritra… and his stunningly beautiful mother. While others received blessings, powerful physiques and grand titles, Vritra was given a skill so pathetic it made even the goddess wrinkle her nose. An ability—so pitifully weak that it drew laughter, scorn, and even disgust. But that wasn't the worst part. Betrayed and cornered inside the labyrinth, Vritra had two choices: die… or fall into the death trap. A death canopy with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the demons endlessly for months. Finally!! He forced his dormant skill to awaken, after killing thousands and hundreds of thousands demons and devouring them, becoming a broken ability. ****** White robes. Cold arrogance A sinful revenge. White robes can stain. And in the dark, even divinity can moan. And then there was his mo— guilt in her breath, shame in her eyes, whispering apologies between gasps in his ear, doing what had to be done… for both their sakes. “Forgive me… this is the only way to survive.” ________________ Absolutely no NTR, none at all!!! Extra chapters based on response I receive, that's all for now, peace out!!

The Grey Remnant

Alex Fredrick was just a university student living a quiet life with his dog, Verwel, in the small city of Qwent. He wasn't looking for adventure, but when an unusual Saturday walk takes them deep into the nearby forest, their ordinary evening is shattered by an impossible, apocalyptic event. In a blinding flash and a deafening roar, the city of Qwent is annihilated, not by conventional weapons, but by a burst of ancient, cosmic power. Stumbling through the immediate, horrific aftermath, Alex encounters a dying, shadowy entity—Xerark, the realm's ancient protector. In a desperate, final act, Xerark transfers a piece of his fundamental power to Alex, burdening the average student with a fraction of immense energy and a cryptic understanding of the true, formless horror that threatens existence. Alex survives the initial sacrifice, finding his own body strangely altered and his loyal companion, Verwel, brought back from the brink but fundamentally changed. His city is gone, reduced to a sterile, grey scar upon the earth—the epicenter of Xerark's 'last stand' to create a barrier that saved what lay beyond Qwent's limits. Now, guided by an internal resonance from the power he didn't ask for, and accompanied by his mysteriously transformed dog, Alex must navigate a world forever changed. His journey takes him through unsettling, ancient forests and towards colossal, enigmatic mountains that guard a hidden sanctuary—a place Xerark's echo hinted holds the keys to understanding his new abilities, the nature of the consuming threat, and the role he must now play. From ordinary student to reluctant vessel of ancient power, Alex must race against time to uncover the sanctuary's secrets and learn to control the volatile energy within him. For the barrier Xerark created will not last forever, and when it falls, Alex may be the only one left to make the true, final stand.

The Power of +1 [Progression Fantasy, LitRPG about Money]

For more chapters and discussion about +1, please support me on my Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/coffeetimewriting Theo Sterling, a ruthlessly ambitious corporate climber, is violently ejected from his career and finds himself facing the poverty he desperately fears. With only $2,000 between him and the streets, a mysterious mental breakdown leaves him with an impossible gift, the power to grant any object a permanent "+1" enhancement. Driven by his gnawing terror of failure, Theo begins methodically exploiting his unique ability, with the aim of becoming a billionaire. From enhancing basic knives for quick cash (and cutting ethical corners when necessary), to optimizing high-value bicycles for substantial profit, he relentlessly seeks ways to maximize the return on each precious enhancement. Navigating a mundane world with his special power, Theo readily pushes ethics aside, believing ruthlessness is the only path to the almighty profit. As he dives headfirst into more questionable and morally grey endeavours, his bank account swells, but does this solitary climb built on calculated risks lead only to an isolating peak? Or is there a heavier, unseen cost to Theo’s singular pursuit of money?
