When creatures thought to be mythical suddenly begin an assault on Earth, the world's nations band together to devise a plan to counter them. Some share information on building powerful weapons, while others provide manpower. Unfortunately, humanity does not stand a chance against an enemy that has been hiding since ancient times. Driven into a corner, humans retreated into Undercity, the last stronghold of the human race. Due to its location in a large underground cavern, Undercity has managed to avoid destruction. Here, civilians can live fairly normal lives, and some have forgotten about the war. A group of scholars devised a method to mimic the abilities of mythical creatures, but learning to use them effectively and safely proved difficult, so they locked away all their research. Theo has only his mother left and is terrified of losing her. Desperate to protect her, he dedicates all his free time to researching the scholars who founded Undercity, hoping to unearth the secrets they left behind. One day, he finds an old rusty dagger hidden in the hollowed-out hollowed-out pages of an encyclopedia printed before the start of the war. This dagger held many secrets, and Theo lost his head while decyphering them. "It's time to go for a midnight walk." "Reap a soul within 4 hours." "Where's your head?"

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ Release Schedule:- 2 Chapters Every Day! But wait—there’s more! Want extra chapters? Your support makes it happen!

A soul-stirring story of a forbidden and abiding revelation of immortal world. Once upon a time, there was a girl named Anezka Orien who had been taken far away from home to the mortal world shortly after her birth. Her home held magic and power, wrapped in illusions. Twelve years later, she returned to Cosmos of Aislinn, A immortal world she had only heard about in the bedtime stories told by her foster caregiver. This unreal world is filled with mystery and magic, but even more enigmatic is the shadow queen of another kingdom, who has occupied Anezka's mind. The desire to unravel the secrets surrounding the queen has become Anezka's primary motivation, fueling her determination to confront the unknown. With each clue she uncovers, she draws closer to the elusive truth, hoping that understanding the queen's hidden secrets will finally grant her the freedom to escape this eternal, immortal realm's magic and return to the normal life she longs for. Excerpt: "People called her as cold-hearted, claiming she was hollow and unfeeling. They warned me to steer clear of her. She’s a fiery shadow, formless and voiceless; people can only sense her presence. Despite this, I felt an undeniable pull toward the Shadow Queen of the Kingdom of Corbin, a wistful ache as if our souls had met before. What matters most is that she is the only one with the power to free me from this unknown and elusive world's magic. Only she can help me, but she remains invisible, and I am determined to find her. I want to discover myself and unveil my purpose for existing in this immortal realm". —————— Once upon a time, there lived a mysterious Queen named Azara Catori, burdened by a curse as old as time. She was one of the three Ardere, fiery souls who instilled fear in the hearts of the townspeople from other elements. The Catori name was tainted with darkness and flames. Excerpt: "They called the uncouth an oddity–an appalling figure. She's a normal human, vulnerable like the exact people I try to avoid. They advised me to keep my distance from her. Yet, there was an unshakeable yearning for Anezka Orien that I found impossible to escape." ————————————————— Trigger Warnings : Mention of Death, Anxiety, Depression.

Synopsis of Shattered Skies: The Echo’s Call In the floating world of Nytheris, the sky is not an endless expanse—it is a vast crystalline dome, humming with forgotten magic. But long ago, something tried to break through, and though the gods sealed the breach, the sky was left fractured. Now, shards of the old sky fall like dying stars, carrying secrets of a lost past. Sylvaen has always heard the sky’s whispers. Born with the mark of an Echo, she possesses a rare connection to the fractured heavens—a gift feared and shunned. But when a Skyshard falls and the sky speaks her name, she realizes she is meant to find it. She is not the only one searching. The Hollow Chorus, a cult that believes the world must be shattered completely, will stop at nothing to claim the shard’s power. Fleeing for her life, Sylvaen joins forces with a rogue skyship captain with stars in his blood, a scholar who can read the past through touch, and a warrior who was once a shadow given form. As they race across floating continents, unraveling the truth behind the Fractured Sky, Sylvaen discovers a terrifying secret—the gods never truly left, and something beyond the sky is still watching. Waiting. The sky is breaking. The whispers are calling. And Sylvaen may be the key to either mending the heavens… or tearing them apart forever.

In a world where the dead cling to the living through malevolent spirits called *Shades*, 19-year-old **Jin Soel** harbors a cursed gift: he can resurrect the dead, but each act of defiance against death exacts a gruesome toll. A degenerative curse known as **the Rot** consumes his body, crumbling it piece by piece. Torn between desperation and guilt, Jin uses his power to dig up graves, seeking answers about his mother’s mysterious death years ago—and the monstrous Shade she became when he first unknowingly resurrected her. When Jin revives **Min-ah**, a murdered classmate, her soul erupts as a ferocious Shade, forcing him to destroy her corpse again to survive. Bloodied and crumbling, Jin is confronted by **Yuri**, a cryptic woman with one ghostly eye and a vial of temporary salvation. She drags him into the **Hollow Market**—a macabre underworld where the damned trade secrets, memories, and flesh. There, Jin learns Min-ah’s death was no random tragedy but part of a sinister *harvest* to breed powerful Shades. As Jin navigates this shadowy realm with Yuri—whose motives blur the line between ally and manipulator—he uncovers threads linking Min-ah’s murder to his mother’s past. But every resurrection Jin performs to unravel the truth accelerates the Rot, edging him closer to becoming one of the very monsters he hunts. With Shades growing stronger and his body failing, Jin must decide how much of himself he’s willing to lose to protect the living… and outrun the ghost of the mother he doomed to eternal torment. **Dark, visceral, and morally tangled**, *Bleeding Shadows* weaves a tale of cursed power, haunted legacies, and the price of clinging to those already gone. Perfect for fans of *Chainsaw Man*’s existential grit and *The Girl from the Other Side*’s eerie melancholy.

Ein was a hitman on hire. A killer, a shadow, a death with insomnia, if you may. He had witnessed countless pairs of eyes dim as the light of life faded, leaving nothing but vile hollowness. Needless to say, the sight of a soul popping out of the dead body was a first. And it wasn't just any soul. It was the dead heir of Byers Holdings, the same guy he killed with his own hands. Turns out the rich boy Adriel had a horribly irritating and loud soul, but worst of it all - impossible to get rid of. Who would have thought that killing on a blue moon night could lead to being haunted?

The world we knew was gone, the people we loved, Our family and our friends whom we've known all our lives, all turned into monsters. The few of us that was left on earth turned into scavengers and some into hunters in order to survive even another moment in this deathly wave.

My Name is Diana Sinclair, and this is the story of how the world ended and how I died in the process. Or so I thought.

Lihat dia melawan bahaya dan pada saat yang sama menyelamatkan nyawa orang-orang. Tapi dalam misi kecil ini, ada halangan kecil —— Tiga godaan yang memikat. *********** Melawan godaan ambil 1: “MMPH,” Luo Huian mendorong mer yang telah menekannya ke tempat tidur sambil duduk di pinggangnya. "Turun." “Saya tidak bisa,” jawab Qi Yongrui saat dia melepas bajunya. “Ayah Shun bilang dia iri dengan Paman Wang. Dia juga ingin memeluk cucu. Jadi, istri ayo kita kerja keras malam ini, oke?” Luo Huian: Tuhanku selamatkan aku, aku adalah perempuan tanpa keinginan! **** Melawan godaan ambil 2: “Menurutmu dia tampan?” tanya Fan Meilin kepada wanita yang berdiri di sebelahnya. Meski dia yang memenangkan perlombaan dan piala, istrinya malah melihat mer lain. “Ya tentu,” Luo Huian, yang merupakan penikmat keindahan, segera setuju. “Tapi mengapa kamu bertanya?” Mata Fan Meilin berkilat saat dia tersenyum pada Luo dan mendekatkan tubuhnya sambil berbisik di telinganya, “Dia mungkin tampak tampan tapi saya adalah pengendara yang lebih baik. Tidak hanya di jalur tapi juga di tempat tidur, apakah kamu mau mencoba sayang?” Luo Huian: Lawan godaan! Biaya apa pun! Saya adalah wanita berhati baja. ***** Melawan godaan ambil 3: “Apakah ini perlu?” tanya Luo Huian saat duduk di sofa, menonton mer melacak jarinya di lengkungan tubuhnya sambil dia duduk hanya dengan pakaian renang modern. Mer itu mengangguk saat dia menulis di notepad kecilnya, “Saya perlu melacak setiap inci kulit Anda untuk menciptakan karya terbaik saya, jadi jangan bergerak.” Setelah selesai menulis, dia menyerahkan notepad kepada Luo Huian, jarinya menyentuh lekukan dada, pinggangnya dan ——— Luo Huian: Kesucianku berada dalam risiko besar! ** Fl yang berusaha melakukan segalanya untuk menyelamatkan kesuciannya dari diambil karena itu akan memperlambat kultivasinya X Mls yang berusaha sebaik mungkin untuk merebutnya darinya. *********** Peringatan pemicu: meskipun buku ini diatur dalam pengaturan komedi, mungkin ada beberapa topik yang tidak nyaman yang akan membahas depresi dan kesepian. ***********

Perla had always felt a longing for adventure, stifled by the rules of her strict upbringing and surrounded by her older brothers free to do as they wanted. She longed to carve her own path, to seek out excitement and perhaps even a little romance along the way. One day, while escaping yet another tedious piano class, she stumbled into the hollow of a massive tree. At its base, a mesmerizing green light beckoned her, and before she knew it, she was transported to a bizarre forest teeming with colossal, long-extinct creatures and menacing carnivorous plants. This was the realm of Beastkin, where men could transform into mighty beasts. Here, the constant threat of war had led to a peculiar imbalance, with most females giving birth to male Beastkin, resulting in a dire shortage of women. The land was a battleground, filled with mercenaries and adventurers seeking glory. While the males formed companies to embark on quests, their females stayed behind, living a life of comfort. But not Perla—she was determined to break free from the mold, to grow stronger, and to join her new love interests on exhilarating escapades.

Living a normal life is boring, but I was happy with what I had. Even when I spent most of my life in regret and misery, I lived because I had someone that I loved dearly. And that said someone took my life... But fate had different plans for me... As if death wasn't enough for me. As if the gods were mocking me. I got reincarnated into a hardcore romance game that I used to play. That too when the prequel game that I played the most ended twenty-five years ago. A game where death is everyone's mistress. A game that people either liked or hated too much. Now reincarnated into the body of the Villainess's son. I became someone that I hated the most... "Hahaha..." I laughed at my own misery. As if that too wasn't enough, I also became the slave of someone else's desires. Now, one might say a mother is a mother even if the world sees her as a Villainess. But what if your mother is the very incarnation of evil? That your mother is the hurdle that you have to overcome? What if your mother is the very reason you might die? Gentleness and love are the last things one could expect from her. "Hahaha..." Again, a hollow laugh escaped my lips as the realization dawned on me. That I have been... Reincarnated As The Villainess's Son... =============================== [Discord link:- https://discord.gg/5Vgw4JCrBW]

He was summoned to this world to save it. He fought for it, to save his sister. Shawn was an emerging engineer before a portal pulled him and his cousin from Earth. He was told by the person who summoned him that they would save the world. Except, his summoner just used the last of her divinity to get him here, and they're outmatched against her insidious, power-hungry brother. He commands an army of zealots determined to make the world whole, or shatter what’s left of the hollow planet to pieces. But Shawn has a mission of his own, to find his sister, kidnapped to this strange planet of gods, magic and monsters. He makes a deal to help his depowered summoner, in exchange for helping launch a rescue mission, and imbues a dangerous power into himself. Now armed with the powers of fire, ice, and force, plus his engineering knowledge, he'll equip his friends with cutting-edge weapons and equipment inspired by Earth technology to give them the edge they need, and jump-start a magitech revolution. Shawn and his allies will delve deep into this nested realm of monsters, mysteries, and secrets, toward the core world in their efforts to confront a tyrant deity… Take flight into the depths of Remaria! What to expect: * A fantasy adventure into a fractured world, with detailed worldbuilding and complex characters. The main POV is Shawn for 80-90% of the story. * Progression elements are more than numbers--allies will bond, powers will grow, and tech will advance. * Violence and danger are lurking elements in Remaria, as are mysteries and secrets buried within the depths of the world. * Rating: PG-13. There's violence, the heroes have old wounds in their past, and some language. Expect some sensual content of a non-explicit kind down the line. * This story is a somewhat slow burn. The characters will keep progressing, as will the dangers they face.

Wrong. Her grandmother sent Luo Huian to a world where Gloom Rocks had wrecked chaos. Beasts and monsters were given birth to by the Gloom Rocks that sucked every ounce of happiness from humans. This world was dominated by hunters who could kill the beasts with the powers that they had awakened. And in this cutthroat world, Luo Huian got the short end of the stick. She woke up in the body of an F-class hunter! Dang it. If that wasn’t worse enough, the previous owner had confessed to her cousin-in-law and was kicked out of the family. Double frog in the hot crock. With not a single penny in her pocket Luo Huian goes out to complete her mission. But what would happen when Luo Huian who was an F-class hunter annihilated the Z-class Glooms and Hollows that even the S-class hunters could not? Watch her fend against the dangers and at the same time save the lives of people. But in this small mission, there is a small obstruction —— The three alluring temptations. *********** Resisting the temptation take 1: “MMPH,” Luo Huian pushed against the mer who had pushed her down on the bed while sitting on her waist. “Get off.” “I can’t,” answered Qi Yongrui as he took off his shirt. “Daddy Shun said that he is envious of Uncle Wang. He also wants to hold a grandchild. So, wife let's work hard tonight alright?” Luo Huian: Dear Heavens save me, I am a woman of no desire! **** Resisting the temptation take 2: “Do you think he is good looking?” Fan Meilin questioned the woman who stood next to him. Even though he was the one who won the race and the trophy, his wife was looking at the other mer. “Well yes,” Luo Huian, who was an appreciator of beauty, agreed at once. “Why are you asking this though?” Fan Meilin’s eyes flashed as he smiled at her and leaned in closer to her body as he whispered in her ear, “He might be good looking but I am a better driver. Not only on the track but also in bed, do you want to try darling?” Luo Huian: Resist the temptation! At all costs! I am an iron-hearted woman. ***** Resisting the temptation take 3: “Is this necessary?” Luo Huian questioned as she sat on the couch, watching the mer trace his fingers on her curves while she sat in nothing but modern swimwear. The mer nodded as he wrote on his small notepad, “I need to trace every inch of your skin to create my finest creation, so don’t move.” After he finished writing, he handed the notepad to Luo Huian, his fingers brushing against the curve of her bosom, waist and ——— Luo Huian: My virtue is at extreme risk! ** Fl who is trying to do everything to save her virtue from being taken as it would slow down her cultivation X Mls who are trying their best to snatch it from her. *********** Trigger warning: though the book is set in a comedic setting, there might be some uneasy topics that would discuss depression and loneliness. ***********

Eclipsed by fate Who remembers the ruin of a god? Who dares to chase what was never meant to be found? Noor—an enigma draped in silk, a storm without thunder, a shadow that bends the world yet leaves no trace of its touch. She is whispered of in corridors where power is traded like currency, yet no man holds her name, no past binds her, no hand dares to reach. She walks unclaimed, unseen, forgotten by design. But some things refuse to be buried. Some ghosts never rest. Sanlang, a man cast in golden light, sculpted into perfection, a deity in the eyes of the world—and yet hollow. Beneath the applause, beneath the worship, something stirs. It begins as whispers in the dark, fragments of a life he does not remember, a truth that gnaws at the edges of his mind. A gavel’s fall. A price too steep. Shackles too fine for a king. And in the abyss of his lost memories, she stands. Watching. Waiting. Who is she? A dream? A curse? Or the key to a something that should have remained untouched? He chases her like a man chasing the sun, believing himself the hunter. He is wrong. She does not run. She does not fear. She does not need to hide, for she knows—should he tread too far, should he step beyond the veil—he will find not salvation, not love, but the remnants of a god unmade. He who was never meant to remember. But now that he does, the only question that remains is this: Will Noor let him live with the truth? Or will she erase him as she did herself?

Brenda had gambled on love twice, and both times, fate dealt with her. The first heartbreak was bitter and better to let go, but the second? That one shattered her. She had poured every ounce of herself into it, only to be left standing in the ruins of her own devotion. Love had drained her, left her hollow, and taught her that vulnerability was a luxury she could no longer afford. So, she made a choice—a bold one. Love was no longer part of her story. Brenda let go of the romantic fairy tales and turned the page to a new chapter. One where she wasn’t pining or hoping. She was single, powerful, and utterly unshaken in the freedom of being beholden to no one. She wasn’t looking for love anymore because she had found something even better: herself. And in this new life, she didn’t just live—she thrived. * * * * * Until….Spencer came in... Ready to give her another taste of love. Could she allow herself to feel again? To trust again? Or would she choose the familiar safety of solitude, where her heart could never break? L.O.V.V.E.E – E.V.O.L.V.E
