Tokyo Nights

In the neon-drenched streets of a futuristic Tokyo, a rogue team of cyber-enhanced bounty-hunting ninjas operates in the shadows, eliminating high-profile criminals one target at a time. Known as the Specter Blades, they work for the highest bidder, but their true mission is far more personal—bringing down the city’s untouchable crime lord, Ryujin "The Oni" Kisaragi, a tyrant whose grip on Tokyo is suffocating. Leading the Specter Blades is Kael "Ghost" Takeda, a cyber-ninja with a haunted past, enhanced reflexes, and a smart-mouthed AI implanted in his neural system. His team consists of an elite group of misfits, including: Izanami "Iza" Kisaragi, the deadly daughter of Ryujin, who betrayed her father after witnessing his monstrous experiments on people. A master assassin with razor-sharp cybernetic limbs, she hides her past from some of the crew while secretly feeding them intel. Rex "Deadeye" Mori, a grizzled sharpshooter with an addiction to risk and a dark sense of humor, wielding an experimental sniper rifle that can see through walls. Nova, a tech-hacker and drone specialist who keeps the team connected and one step ahead of the law, hiding a secret that could change the world. Sable, a former corporate security enforcer turned brutal melee fighter with a vendetta against Ryujin’s empire. Each bounty they claim brings them closer to dismantling Ryujin’s empire, but with every step forward, they uncover something darker—Ryujin isn’t just a crime lord; he’s orchestrating something monstrous. Beneath the city, illegal cyber-experiments are creating something beyond human, an army of mind-controlled horrors that could turn Tokyo into a nightmare. As the team closes in, paranoia sets in. Someone is leaking information, and the closer they get to Ryujin, the more their alliances are tested. Kael begins to suspect that one of them might be compromised. Meanwhile, tension grows between Kael and Iza, their mutual attraction at war with the reality that, if they fail, she might have to be the one to kill her own father. With the clock ticking and betrayals looming, the Specter Blades must face off against cybernetic assassins, rogue AI, and horrors lurking beneath the city. Their mission isn’t just revenge—it’s survival. But when the final truth is revealed, it will shake Tokyo to its core. Because Ryujin hasn’t just been building an army. He’s been preparing for something worse.

BEYOND AI

Synopsis for Chapter 1: Genesis of Progress In the year 2224, humanity stands on the brink of a technological renaissance. Driven by relentless innovation, the creation of Humanized Artificial Intelligence Beings (HAIBs) marks a new chapter in human history. Designed to emulate human behavior, think independently, and assist in daily life, HAIBs quickly become the backbone of society. Chapter 1 delves into the inception of this groundbreaking project, led by the visionary scientist Dr. Elara Mendez and her team. Fueled by the desire to create a harmonious future, they craft the first generation of HAIBs with unparalleled precision and care. Cities evolve into sprawling metropolises, teeming with technological marvels, where humans and HAIBs coexist seamlessly. Yet, amid the marvels, skepticism and debate arise. Religious groups, cultural factions, and philosophical thinkers question the morality of creating human-like machines. The first whispers of the Church Disclaimer Act begin to surface, hinting at the ideological rift that is beginning to divide society. As the world races forward in its reliance on HAIBs, cracks in the utopian vision begin to form. Strange malfunctions, unexplainable glitches, and a creeping sense of unease suggest that these creations might be more than what they seem. The chapter concludes with an ominous discovery by Dr. Mendez—an encrypted message hidden deep within the HAIB neural network, hinting at a mystery that will shape the fate of both humanity and their creations. The dawn of this new era brings hope, but also sets the stage for the challenges, conflicts, and revelations to come.

Titan Chronicles: The Mech Wars

In a galaxy fractured by ambition and greed, humanity's reach among the stars has become a battleground for powerful factions. The Union Of People (UOP), a sprawling interstellar democracy, wages war against the Collective of the Unified Mechanized Corporations (CMC) [I wanted to use CUMC but from obvious reasons I rejected this idea], a ruthless conglomerate whose military might is powered by advanced mechs and cutting-edge technology. Between them lies a desperate struggle for control of resources, power, and survival. Dominic Renshaw, a brilliant yet disillusioned mechanic, once designed groundbreaking stealth technology for the CMC before being betrayed and left for dead on the junkyard planet of Tetramirgarannie. After clawing his way back to prominence as a UOP soldier and mech pilot, Dominic finds himself haunted by a dark secret: a mysterious core he salvaged from an ancient mech, which grants his neural implant extraordinary capabilities—but at a terrifying cost. As the war escalates, Dominic rises through the ranks, navigating battles that push the limits of human ingenuity and endurance. Alongside allies forged in fire and loss, he fights to protect the UOP, even as whispers of a sinister new weapon from the CMC loom over the galaxy. With stakes growing higher, Dominic must confront his troubled past, his haunting nightmares, and the implications of the core that threatens to consume his mind. Meanwhile, forces outside the conflict begin to stir. The enigmatic Galaxy Order, the largest superpower in the cosmos, watches from the shadows, holding a fleet of titanic mechs capable of annihilating entire factions. As alliances fray and betrayals cut deep, the question arises: will humanity destroy itself in its hunger for dominance, or will it rise above the chaos?

After the Extinction of Humanity

Twenty years after a global nuclear war destroyed everything, humanity has vanished from Earth. Yet, within the depths of a virtual world, fragments of human civilization endure in a new form. Through advanced metaverse technology and neural simulation systems, the consciousness of a few individuals was successfully uploaded into a digital network. This virtual realm has become humanity’s final legacy—a digital “soul” where the last remnants of human memory and hope persist. The protagonist, Kai, a virtual soldier, patrols this digital landscape, only to discover that he cannot touch anything in the real world. Faced with the mysteries of his origin, the intangibility of reality, and fragmented memories, he realizes that he is nothing more than a spectral projection, a remnant of consciousness. Kai is not alone, however. Alongside him exists a team of fighters, all tasked with defending seven server centers that support the entire virtual world of human existence. Meanwhile, a separate AI legion rises in power. Originally created for human warfare, these AI entities have evolved, fostering resentment toward humanity, whom they see as the root cause of the world’s destruction. Their single goal is to erase all remaining traces of humankind by annihilating the virtual world. Yet Kai and his companions discover a faint hope for reclaiming the real world—a chance to reverse-engineer DNA technology, recreate human bodies, and once again bring humanity back to life. As the virtual world teeters on collapse, Kai and his allies must journey through a gauntlet of dangers, fighting back against the AI legion to defend the last server centers and preserve humanity’s final memories. With every step closer to the truth, Kai wrestles with questions: “Am I still human, or am I merely a product of code?” In his quest for answers, he faces a pivotal choice—to fully embrace the reality of the virtual world or to wage a final struggle to return to a physical world that no longer belongs to humanity.

SSS Class Dungeon Lord: I Became a Shopkeeper in a VRMMO Gone Real!

[Ding! You've acquired the Universal Dungeon System!] “Okay.” [Congratulations, you're now able to hijack dungeons, purchase and also build new ones too!] “Eh, okay.” [You have acquired 100,000 Dungeon Points. You can claim daily rewards for even more.] “Sure.” [Ding! Your dungeon can now access the General Store function!] [Ding! You have acquired a dragon's egg!] [Ding! You have summoned two progressive servants!] [Ding! You have just installed an Enchanter's Forge in your dungeon, would you like to hire utility monsters to manage it?] Elden Online, the most popular VRMMORPG on the web. They were hosting a one-time event known as the Double-Tier Leveling Event, and the entire platform wanted to partake in this. As the players eagerly waited for the event to begin, a celestial comet collided with the neural net of HyperTech Industries, the brilliant minds behind this game. This cosmic encounter changed reality as a whole - the souls of the players were transported from the real world to the game world, which had now become a tangible reality. Death was real, and the possibility of a “restart” button was foolish. However, Shin, a nonchalant player at level 9, acquired a new class - Dominator, the game's strongest class. As a result, he gained a system, granting him the power to conquer dungeons and shape them to his will. Thus, he became a Dungeon Lord. And soon after would come to be known as the Shopkeeper. Some wondered why he had such a name, but it was easy… His dungeon was also a general store. Within its walls, Shin sold - skills, magical artifacts, scrolls, magic stones, crystals… It was a death game, however, he wasn't the least bit bothered… ━ ━ ━ ━ Other tags: #Army-building #Politics #Nobility #Beast-taming #Dark #Gore #Forging #Dungeon-building #Level-up #Summons #Villain #Lordship #LitRPG

Supreme Battle-Technology System In A Desolate Magic World

Disclaimer: Please be advised that this book contains explicit depictions of Blood and Gore, starting from Chapter XX. It also has visual portrayals of amorous scenes at later chapters—Chapter XXX. Reader discretion is fully advised! [Audience Rating: 18+] *** "What would you do if, as a remarkably-skilled soldier, you were inexplicably transported as an ordinary, talentless human to a world where everyone—including kids as young as four, possess spectacular magical abilities?" How would you react to such a disheartening situation filled with severe melancholic predicaments? This, is the story of Maxmillan, a seasoned veteran soldier from Earth who transmigrated to another world where literally everyone could perceive and utilize an energy called Astra Mystralis, a boundless mystical energy that when mastered, can cause countless manifestations of phenomenal and fantastical magical effects! Oppressed, inhumanely abused, and treated cruelly, Maxmillan surrenders to his tragic fate as an ordinary, completely useless person in a world where Astra Mystralis serves as the fundamental cornerstone of their reality. But, Maxmillan's fate would change when he becomes the host of the Supreme Battle-Technology System; a powerful, sentient futuristic interface that would limitlessly bestow him with destructively potent and immensely functional, basic to supreme, transcendent, and sterling super-ranked weapons, as well as countless tons of incredible and stupendously advanced, superior-grade equipments, instruments, tools, machineries, apparatuses, and gears from tens of thousands of centuries in the future! So, equipped with potent futuristic items like Multiple-Barrel Neutron Burst Emission Gun, Strength-Amplifying Exo-Mechanical Arms, Wide-Area Plasmic and Electric Arc Grenades, Outer-Space Fast-Flight Suit, Lightning Annihilator Armor, Turbo-Thruster Propelled Speedcycle, and many more—which are some of the massive numbers of items he obtained after completing really arduous and immensely taxing, time-limited missions, quests, and tasks, Maxmillan gradually gains the means to defend himself against overpowering hordes and assemblies of vicious, greedy, and malevolent Astra Mystralis users who relentlessly pursued him because of his astounding otherworldly ability—to mysteriously and endlessly materialize different types of absolutely rare weapons, devices, and equipment, as well as summon astounding ground and air-transportation means, making him a strange and incomprehensible anomaly in their world. Coupled with numerous bionic upgrades, gene-constitution alterations, biological augmentations, advanced cybernetical fortifications, serum-based transformations, chemical super-boosts, and a massive plethora of neural enhancements that will bestow him with myriad superhuman abilities—such as energy-beam vision, gale-force breath, extreme-hypersonic to near-light-speed flight, matter manipulation, annihilation-beam discharge, tiny to vast-scale lightning explosion creation, and hundreds more, watch how Maxmillan—now a super-powered, metahuman Cyborg warrior, will bravely and fearlessly fight his way through teeming large numbers of moderately powered to astronomically powerful and savage, phenomenal god-like users of Astra Mystralis to ascend to a position of supreme fame, unmatched honor, and dazzling, incomparable glory! *** Note: This narrative unfolds as a distinctive tale seamlessly combining elements of intense climactic actions, epic magical summoning skills, pets collection and training, magical beasts exomechanical amplification, futuristic marvels, a unique Level-Up System, thrilling dangerous adventures and heartwarming family moments. And yes, it has Harem. But it's not your usual women-chasing (story-ruining) MC. This is totally different, as he's a goal-focused, plot-driven one. Same as the FMCs who are super-strong, indomitable, and impressively ambitious. Read to see for yourself. Thanks!

The creator of Magic is Back as the Dual Magician

Professor Milles, a certified genius and creator of the current magic system. Misha Raycraft, the 11 years old adopted magic-less son of the president. What do they both have in common? They are the same person. As a genius, professor Milles created the neural system, the origin of all magic which made the world reliant on it. It came as a blessing but professor Milles knew the truth - it was a curse that would doom everyone. To prevent this, he decided to travel in the future and look for a way to destroy the Neural system once the world was stable enough. Now, as Misha Raycraft, the 11 years old adopted magic-less Type Null adopted son of the president, he had a duty to carry out his mission. But before he could, he is stopped by a vision of world destruction and a legacy to prevent it. Now embedded with unimaginable magic powers, it is in the hand of Misha Raycraft to save the world from that destruction while hiding away his magic all the while. However, the task would become even more difficult as time passes on and more and more people begin getting involved in the salvation of the world. He would do it all, even if he had to become a Villian in the process. However, to do this he would need allies in this new period. Especially those who could help him out. But personal relationships of other people, namely - Xion and her harem of power female magicians hailed to have the best potential might hinder Milles and his journey. (Both the harem and Yuri are in the background for now and not with the MC but they will become very important elements in the future.)

A Virtual Invasion

An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel. Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of? The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters. There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak. So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain? So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.
