Mercenary Yand

I thought being laid off from my job was the greatest of my worries but I just had to wake up in a ship's cockpit after my space game crashed. Now I have no map, no friends and no money. But that's ok, I've started from the bottom before! With my starter ship I will scour through space as a Mercenary and maybe even start up a Mercenary Company while I'm at it! This ain't my first rodeo in space after all! Except... Apparently my crew members are weird? The guy who bumped into me yesterday was found sliced up and floating outside the space station. The girl who tried to honeytrap me was reported missing with only a finger found in an alley. And then that merchant who scammed me had his entire ship blasted into bits by unknown vessels the very next day. Some people say my crewmates were behind it but they must be mistaken, right? I only know one thing for sure... In space, no one can hear you scream... *** Notes: Any R-rated scenes will be denoted by a '*' followed by an 'R' with the number of 'R's showing how much of it is R-rated.

Raito Yakamura a former mercenary decides to quit in order to secure a quiet life but his urges and instinct to kill remain and it only worsens when he makes a pact with a demon

In the land of Aetheria, strength is everything. The great warrior families—Argenthelm, Dravenmoor, and Varkos—rule with the might of their swords, their names etched in history as the strongest knights to ever live. Born into the prestigious Argenthelm family, **Rael** was expected to follow in their footsteps, to master the sacred sword techniques and awaken the power that runs through his bloodline. But no matter how hard he trained, no matter how many battles he endured, he could never grasp the essence of sword aura. To his father, to his brothers, and to the world, he was a failure. On his sixteenth birthday, Rael is cast out, forced to undergo the *Trial of Kings*—a cruel test that has claimed the lives of countless unworthy heirs. Alone, with nothing but a dagger in hand, he is thrown into the deadly wilds of Aetheria, where monsters, mercenaries, and rival warriors lurk in the shadows. But Rael is not like the others. He does not rely on brute force. He does not wield an unstoppable blade. He **thinks.** He **adapts.** He **survives.** And if the world refuses to acknowledge him as a knight—then he will carve his name into history another way.

Wasters. The word spreads like wildfire across the frontier—whispered in saloons, cursed in cathedrals. Born of rogue science and stitched metal, they’re outlaws in the eyes of the Church and monsters in the eyes of the world. Levi Wilson didn’t choose this life. Once a streetwise mercenary, he was captured, experimented on, and turned into something he doesn’t understand. Augmented with prototype Vaporguard tech and left with scars he can’t outrun, Levi escapes into a land already teetering on the edge—where the Church tightens its grip, bounty hunters chase Wasters for coin, and the Old World’s empire watches the New with hungry eyes. Now hunted and alone, Levi must learn to survive—not just the bounty hunters and Inquisition on his trail, but the growing power inside him. What begins as a fight to stay alive will drag him into something far greater: a war for the soul of the frontier, and maybe the world beyond it.

In the sun-scorched wastelands beyond the Seraphic Theocracy, the exiled struggle to survive. Among them is Silver, an orphan boy born into a world where Apostle blood was used as fuel and the gods turning their backs on him. Branded as one of the ‘Godless,’ he and his sister, Mira, a hardened mercenary, fight to carve out a future in a land where only the ruthless endure. But when Mira returns from the frontier bearing fresh scars and a secret, Silver realizes that survival is no longer their only concern. Whispers of change ripple through the desert—the land shifts, the monsters grow restless, and ancient forces long thought buried begin to stir. Silver never believed in fate. But fate has chosen him. Hunted by zealots, mercenaries, knights, and things far more monstrous, Silver must unravel the mystery of his own existence before the world is swallowed by the storm on the horizon. With each step, the line between man and god, salvation and damnation, blurs. And as the sands run red, one question remains: Will he be the savior the world needs… or its final executioner?

In the war-torn kingdom of Velmora, a prophecy foretells that only one warrior can wield the legendary blade Solmara and end the centuries-old war. That warrior is Kael Dain, a battle-hardened outcast raised among mercenaries, unaware of his true lineage. But the prophecy comes with a cruel twist—Kael must forsake love, for the one he gives his heart to will bring the kingdom to ruin. Then he meets Seraphine, a mysterious healer with eyes like molten gold and a past shrouded in secrets. Drawn to her in ways he cannot explain, Kael discovers too late that Seraphine is tied to the prophecy—her blood unlocks Solmara’s true power, and if she dies, the blade awakens. As dark forces rise and betrayal lurks in every shadow, King Varos, a ruthless ruler obsessed with fulfilling the prophecy for his own gain, seeks to capture Seraphine and bend fate to his will. Now, Kael faces an impossible choice: sacrifice the woman he loves to fulfill his destiny and save the kingdom, or defy fate and risk plunging the world into eternal war.

Michael was an emotionless mercenary, bound by one rule: "Trust no one." But when his final mission ended in betrayal, he never expected death to be anything but the end. Yet, as darkness consumed him, he opened his eyes to a world both strange and familiar at once. He had become Valerian Ravensberg, the outcast son of a mighty noble family. In the story he knew, he was merely a minor villain, a small obstacle in the hero's path. His fate? A swift and humiliating death. A name forgotten in a tale not his own. But Michael was never one to accept his fate in silence. In a world governed by power, deceit, and ambition, there is no law but survival of the fittest. If the story saw him as a stumbling block, he would break the story itself. He would rise—stronger, smarter, and more dangerous than anyone expects. With each step he takes in this world, one thought does not leave him: 'Can he rewrite a destiny that was never his to begin with?' 'If survival is the only rule, how far will he go before he loses himself?' When a mercenary finds himself inside a story not his own, who is truly writing the ending? The rise of Valerian Ravensberg begins now... --- *The introduction may be somewhat weak, so try reading five chapters first. *English is not my native language, so there may be some spelling mistakes.

Avery Asteria was far from having anyone's dream job. Family circumstances had him drop out of school and flying around the expanse of space looking for treasure among the discarded trash in an old ship his father had been restoring. It was far from glamorous work, but it was all he could do to earn the money he needed. He was not the only one looking for fortune among the stars, though. One day a score that looked too good to be true led to a run in with a band of pirates. With some quick wits and a bit of luck, Avery managed to escape the worst, but he ended up missing out on collecting the valuable salvage he had his sights on. Having lost a large chunk of his gear in his flight from the pirates, Avery seemed to be truly at the end of his rope. However, a twist of fate led him to discovering an experimental vessel that had been lost to the far reaches of space. With this new ship in his possession, his prospects were looking up. It had everything and more than what any spacefarer could want. And Avery was going to use it to become the leader of the greatest band of mercenaries in the galaxy.

Too bulky for a sidearm, too small for a proper rifle—behold, the Half-Spec Blaster. Too heftty for a quick draw, yet underwhelming at range—versatile, but never truly mastering any single role. But that’s just fine. Embracing this peculiar weapon, I, Narwhal—station drifter, low-rank mercenary, and certified expert in staying out of trouble—have a dream. A dream of living simply. With my powers, I could challenge warlords, take on high-risk contracts, and shape the galaxy with secret knowledge. But I won’t. Work moderately, survive well—that’s the ideal life in the void! Small-time guild jobs. The occasional space hunt. Food that doesn’t taste like recycled rations. If I can be of some use along the way? Good enough. This is the tale of a man drifting through the stars, clinging to a blaster that never excels in any one area… and an adventure that avoids too much adventure.
