--AUTHOR'S NOTICE--

I regret to inform you, that as of Monday, 10.01.2022, I'm putting Temptation Chronicles on Pause. I came to the conclusion, that as of now, I'm unable to continue writing, due to several issues coming up as of late. These include, but aren't limited to: University Graduation work, Exams, as well as Monetary Issues. I'll try my best to get back onto writing as soon as possible, however this most likely won't happen at least until June 2022. Once I've graduated, I might continue writing this story, given that I'll have the time to do it in my free time.
Another thing I've noticed, is that ever since I've started writing, my enthusiasm for this story has been on a steady decline. The issue isn't that I don't think highly of it, which I definitely do, it's a more personal reason. I don't think that it's up to par with what I envisioned for it, as well as having to write in a style I personally don't really like.
I hope to see you once again, when I'm back writing, until then, please enjoy the story up to the current point.
See you this summer (probably)!

You know you want it. Come on, click on it. Give in to [Temptation].

Born into a family of heroes, Dan Atys, son of some of the top heroes of the world, was an absolute [Low Tier] loser. Getting bullied was his bread day in and out.

What do you think happens to someone like that? I mean, he was raised by heroes, groomed to be one. You'd think he'd turn into one as well, right?


Turns out, Dan thought not. The abuse has messed with his mind, and even his powers didn't seem to affect the people who blindly follow principles. His power, [Temptation] , is a superpower that affects the mind of the afflicted. The only condition that is needed to be fulfilled, is that Dan wills it so. Up to this point tho, he thought it's a charm effect, that has a positive effect on those surrounding him. This usually worked this way, but for some reason, ever since he enrolled into the prestigious School of Herocraft, Heracleon, named after the first superhero in history, his powers didn't seem to affect anyone. No one wanted to be friends with him, and all the affection he had from others, was through extreme abuse. They wouldn't just beat him up, they would torture him both physically, and mentally. So much for those "heroes."

After realising his true potential, the ability to manipulate just about anyone in the world, he thought it would be natural for him, to "stray" from the path of "heroes." 

---DISCALIMER---
We've had a few people clicking on TC, because they were expecting some sexual/explicit [Temptation] content. There's nothing of that sort going on! Please, read the synopsis if you're interested in the story, and if it caught your eyes, please, do give the story a read.
Thank you.

    The synopsis actually hooked me in. I don't regret reading this and I would highly recommend it! This plot is promising and has a lot of potential. This is added to library! Can't wait for more...

    As an avid reader, "The Temptation Chronicles" left a profound impression on me. The narrative was a compelling blend of mystery and psychological depth, weaving an intricate web of temptation that kept me hooked from the very first page. The characters were complex, their struggles relatable, and the plot twists unpredictable. It wasn't just a read; it was a journey into the human condition, filled with thought-provoking themes. I found myself reflecting on the power of desire and the choices we make in the face of temptation. A truly captivating and unforgettable literary experience.

    Author supporting his work, as you do.

    This is an updated version, I'm deleting the previous one.

    I promise a quite action filled series, with a lot of schemes, some politics, and a healthy dose of revenge, to top it off. I like my plot-twists, so expect them (or actually don't, that'd spoil them ;) )
    I managed to win Silver Prize for WPC #194 (I actually started writing this for that). This will be updated daily, entirely based on YOUR support ;)

    Finally Volume 1 - The Rise of Temptation, has finally been completed, and with that, Volume 2 is starting!

    Thanky you so much for your support up until now, and I'm hoping that you'll continue doing so from now on as well! :D

    Have fun reading,

    Don't stop writing, you can do it. Don't stop expressing, or you'll dull the skill. Don't stop improving, writer fever makes us ill. Don't stop having fun, story must be told and seen.

    somehow i dont feel the anti hero vibes on mc. i feel the villain vibes more on the heroes. it feels contradictory tbh. it was nice though but it was a let down that such old man died and mc has no reaction. technically the old man was the first person that made the mc feel warm at least he has been kind. i was expecting more when it says anti hero tag but so be it. 3.4 for now. reason? the writing is average but still better than any novel (4)
    story development (i really cant feel thr villain vibes although mc is smart) (3)
    character design (technically, each of their character development is good but not better because mc was quite naive. he easily trust too much despite being bullied all his life (trust me, I'm a victim of bullying and i know pretty much their mindset. they wont trust too much) updating stability is better, good job! (4) as for world background, you did not state what their world was in. why is their heroes and villain and how such powers came to be so it lacks info. btw some of your plots are forced upon mc so it adds up to the rating.

    The kind of MC who always got bullied whenever he went, even his parents as well, barely had any friend in school, and always thought himself as a useless being for being born with such a lowly power... compared to others who shot flame, blizzard, thunder and poison from their hands... his Charm wouldn't do much but to max the charisma point in the S.P.E.C.I.A.L points.

    Or is that so? Anyway, did you noticed that I use mostly past tense for the paragraph above? Well, I wouldn't like to spoil you more, because the satisfaction when the MC finally able to [REDACTED] those bullies... well, you wouldn't be that satisfied knowing [REDACTED]. Definitely worth to read and watch the MC do tons of [REDACTED] with his true power.

    Then, about the writing... it's clear and vivid, less ambiguous, telling the surrounding and what the character think and do, especially with the first person perspective, making it more easy to follow and understand of what happened.

    Then there's the dialogue. The dialogue is clearly the strongest point of this stort. Every dialogue sound different to each character---that sense from the annoying brads, the archetype of scaredy-cat persons, etc---giving them rich timbre (or tone color in musical term for rich-sounding music or dialogues in this case).

    The plot, I have nothing to say anymore as you must read it for yourself to get that sense of "take that, b****!"-ish.

    About pacing, well I think it's a bit rushing (at least in my standard) in the beginning of chapter when the MC had yet to found his true nature. Hoping to see his past being told as a miserable human, just to see him "return the favour" later on. Well no matter, the story development itself already alright, and I truly enjoy reading it.

    About grammar, no comment on that, since I'm not native speaker, and you seemed did a better job than me.

    With that being said, I guess that's all...
    Lastly but not least, I'd like to thank to the Author who keeps updating and writing this good story for us.

    Thank you... ^^
    Keep on writing~
