Grispera

Lucas lost everything. His abusive father pushed his mother to the brink of death. His younger sister turned into a chip for blackmailing and lost her life. Left alone in the world without his loved ones, he decided to end his life to meet them in the afterlife.

Instead of dying, Lucas was born as a baby without his past memories in a world of cultivation. He had a loving family of mother and older sister. Even without his memories, as Lucas grew up, he knew in his heart that he had to protect his family from all the evils and strived to become stronger.

With his growth, Lucas occasionally started to see many heart-rending visions, which affected him greatly and affected the way he looked at others, including his family. The revelations shocked him. He couldn't trust anyone, even his once close family and friends.

What were those visions? How will Lucas cope with the unsettling revelations and his chaotic feelings?
Will he become estranged or strengthen his bonds with his family and friends and gain the love and warmth that he once longed for.

Read from the perspective of Lucas and join him on his journey of growth, acceptance and love.

***
The prologue of the novel (the first 2 chapters) is tragic and hard to digest but HOLD ON!
Do read at least the first 10 chapters before deciding to drop off.


Note: No Gender-Bender, Yuri, NTR and Rape.

Shards of the Broken Heart

Accompanying the shrill scream was a whooshing sound and the presence of my sister sticking close to me while facing away from me to look at the others present guardedly.

Seeing her solemn face, one would think that there might be someone who was having nefarious intentions against me and was lying in wait for a long time when I was inside the boiling magma.

But the ones she was guarding me from were the maids from our household.

(But why did she just call me a pervert?)

I poked her shoulder and asked inquisitively.

"Uh, my dear sister, why are you trying to protect me from the maids? But first of all, why am I a pervert?"

Alice turned her head, and while glowering at me from top to bottom, she hissed.

"If not you, then who is the pervert? Where are your clothes?"

I looked down and found myself in my naked glory.
