Insomnia Yokai

[The System has arrived on your habitable planet, known as ‘Earth.’] [In five seconds, monsters from countless realms will invade Earth.] [Remaining Time: 5 seconds.] [You can now view your attributes, talents, abilities, and skills by simply thinking about them.] [Kill monsters, and you might survive.] “Monsters?” Damian’s breathing quickened as the pain in his chest grew sharper. On the day of the Awakening, humanity was forced to defend against an invasion of countless monsters from the towers that connected realms across the multiverse. While billions of people died helplessly, billions more seized the opportunities hidden behind the horrors spilling out of the gates. Leveling up, growing stronger, awakening talents, learning supernatural skills, changing one's very race, and even achieving immortality all became possibilities. But for Damian, who was suffering from a sickness that would kill him within a few years, the Awakening was a curse. While other humans awakened powerful talents, hunted monsters, and evolved, Damian remained talentless, a liability and a burden the awakened had to carry. Damian never wanted to be seen as weak or useless, but what could he do? He was dying. If only he had awakened a talent or at least possessed a stronger body, he might have been able to level up and cure his sickness. But he couldn’t. All that would change when a mysterious figure set him on a path that would lead him to his true destiny. Witness the rise of a warrior who would make countless men tremble in fear. Witness the rise of a monster who would force every race, every being, and every existence to kneel. Witness the rise of the Champion.

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?

With every move of her hands and every batting of her lashes, Selene was able to captivate the world with her delicate beauty. She was the "Queen of Showbiz," the beloved of the Castillo family, unlike Keira, the ugly duckling of the family. It didn't matter the context or truth behind the issue, Keira was to be blamed by everyone. "Selene can do no wrong! How can such a delicate, fragile thing think ill of someone? It must be Keira who is making up lies!" "How dare you cause your sister to become sick! Receive your punishment!" Such words were a norm for Keira. The place she called home was Hell's Gate, and the people she called family were poisonous demons. Her life was filled with blame and abuse hurled by her sister's supporters. She was schemed against, attacked, and ruined to the point of no return. The last nine months of her life were the worst. Her insomnia had developed into Sporadic Fatal Insomnia, causing her to lose weight as she suffered consistent sleepless nights. At the age of 23, Keira Castillo passed away alone in her dingy apartment. Her final moments were filled with dread as she begged and prayed to whichever god was listening. "If only I had one more chance..." To her delight, she had regressed to when she was 18. 'The man you love? I'm taking him. The title 'Queen of Showbiz'? That's also mine. Everything you gained from stepping all over me, I will take. My dear Selene, I will play you in the palms of my hands and live my life the way I was supposed to.'

(2025) IN RE-EDITING PROCESS! (Current progress: 1/149) I wanted to let you know that I haven't updated in a while because I've been busy re-editing everything. I've altered the prologue, character names, and other details that didn't convince me. I'll be back soon with an improved version of SELFDOM. I'm proud of how it's turning out, so I hope you like it too! ------------------------------ *Main genres: Dark fantasy, mystery, adventure, action. *Subgenres: Slow-burn romance, epic fantasy, psychological thriller. *Trigger Warning! This novel contains themes and content that may be distressing to some readers, including violence, abuse, mental health struggles, or other sensitive topics. Reader discretion is advised. ------------------------------ Sabrina's dreams were a crack in her sanity. Worn down by insomnia, her mind spirals, barely able to hold onto what’s real. In a desperate attempt to help, her friends take her on a journey, but what begins as a search for salvation ends in bloodshed. Hunted and murdered by a stranger who seems to know them, Sabrina awakens—but not as herself. Now, she's Itziar: a divine, fearsome entity trapped in a world where danger and deceit lurk in every shadow. With her memories shattered and her sense of 'self' slipping through her fingers, Itziar struggles to piece together who she was, and how she ended up in this surreal world. 〚 Synchronization: 0%... 18%... 27%...〛 A strange system bombards her with cryptic notifications. But as the synchronization increases, so does the feeling of something dark creeping into her soul—or perhaps, the reawakening of something monstrous buried deep within her. As fragments of her past resurface, Itziar uncovers a chilling truth: her reincarnation was no accident. The more she uncovers, the more she feels herself slipping away, losing the humanity she once fought so desperately to hold on to. In a world that idolizes her as a savior and fears her as an executioner, Itziar faces an internal battle: embrace the darkness of her former self and risk becoming the monster she once was, or cling to the remnants of her humanity, fighting to prevent her destruction—and possibly the world’s.

Yet, a lingering mystery remains: the enigmatic figure Yamada, driven by an inexplicable hatred.

The Ji oh Joey Saga offers us a glimpse into life in a mysterious and perilous world. While New York City is often portrayed as a bustling metropolis, the city that never sleeps, it hides countless secrets and enigmas beneath its streets.

These creatures encompass a wide variety of species, from humanoid reptiles that closely resemble humans to hybrid Yokai beings with diverse appearances and personalities, reminiscent of the world of Undertale. One of the most prominent races is the demons, who ruled the earth for over a thousand years in "The Great Rift" beneath the surface. In the Ji oh Joey Saga, adventure, excitement, mysteries, and intricate conspiracies unfold, reducing living beings to mere pawns in a vast, complex game.

"Ah... I think I'm dying." Caiden’s final breath escaped him as he slumped against the cold, unforgiving earth, his blood pooling like the depths of his regret. The weight of his failure was crushing. This damned life. This cursed story. And damn it all, Lorian. The continent’s golden hero. The shining protagonist. Caiden had been just an ordinary man from Earth. Now, he was stranded on Gaia, a world where steel clashed and magic roared. By Lorian’s side, he fought, forged bonds, won battles, and faced impossible odds. But beneath the surface of their camaraderie, envy festered—poisoning his every thought, drowning him in despair. And then, the betrayal. He turned on Lorian. And everything came crashing down. "Shit..." As darkness closed in, Caiden braced for eternal silence, the cold grip of death taking hold. But then, it all stopped. He woke up. Back where it all began. "... F*ck. Not again." A second chance—he didn’t ask for it, but here it was. Caiden must now navigate a world full of Yokai, rewrite his own fate, and—above all—avoid betraying Lorian a second time. Because, in this story, where he’s nothing but a side character in someone else’s epic, the odds will always be stacked against him.

Hello, I'm Ken, and I'm graduating high School soon. Don't get too excited, though. My life's been a masterpiece of mediocrity, a symphony of sameness.

Not getting enough sleep has deadly side effects. And not just in the physical sense. That's for those lucky insomniacs. If you fall sick and die from lack of sleep then consider yourself lucky. If you recover from your insomnia and go back to being a normal human being, then you've won the lottery. Unfortunately, most of the human population have sleeping problems. And for those who do not fall under the two previous categories, something far more sinister awaits them. There are those whose minds become so disoriented and debilitated from the exhaustion of insomnia that it leaves them vulnerable to demonic entities. Ones which feast on despair and trauma. And do so with a bright smile on their faces. Faces only the infected can see. You leave your mind weak enough just about anything can step in. And who's mind is more enticing to a nightmare demon than a mind which is already crumbling and hallucinating from a lack of sleep. Be wary. Be cautious.

"The Age of Humanity wanes, and in the endless night that follows, the old blood will awake once more."

In the aftermath of an endless void, a divine spark gave rise to three sibling deities—Amaterasu, the radiant creator; Tsukihana, the contemplative mediator; and Susano’o, the storm-bringer. Together, they shaped Kaminoyama, a world of beauty and balance, their harmony birthing sacred beasts, yokai, and mortals endowed with infinite potential. But perfection is fragile. A clash of ideologies among the siblings spiraled into a devastating war, plunging the land into chaos. Susano’o’s storms corrupted the lifeblood of the world, while Amaterasu’s light fought to preserve it, and Tsukihana sought balance between her warring siblings. Their conflict shattered the heavens, extinguished suns, and birthed dark forces that reshaped the world forever. The final battle saw heart-wrenching sacrifices, as Tsukihana gave her life to sever Susano’o’s chaos from the world. The war ended, but at a tremendous cost—a single sun, a lone moon, and a fractured realm scarred by darkness. Now, with the gods withdrawn, mortals must forge their own path in a land where hope flickers like dying embers. What lies ahead in the ashes of creation? Only those with the courage to rise will uncover the truth—and face the remnants of divine fury.
