Hiccup Horrendous

"Devouring Lifespan to grow stronger!!" When Ricky Stormwind—a washed-up office worker—drank himself to death, he expected eternal nothingness. Instead, he awoke in a new world… as a mosquito. Weak as an ant. Fragile as a piece of paper. Prey to everything. But this world is no ordinary one. Magic, monsters, and powerful beings dominate the land, with ruthless forces waging war for supremacy. And Ricky? He possesses a terrifying ability—he can drain lifespan from any living creature and use it to evolve. A single bite can grant him hours. A feast?..... Years!! Now, in a forest filled with predators and beside a village on the brink of destruction, Ricky must climb the evolutionary ladder—from insignificant pest to a calamity that could devour the world itself. But when his first real meal triggers a mass sacrifice, the world mistakes him for a rising Demon Lord. Bounties are placed on his head. Armies march to hunt him down. And lurking in the shadows, a forbidden power calls to him, promising a path beyond mere survival—one that could reshape reality itself. In a world where everything is prey to something greater, something horrendous… he will rise to become the apex. https://discord.gg/egZYREvZbD

Everyday was the same for Skullius. An Undead minion of the lowest order like him, didn’t have to find a grand purpose… other than mining mana gems for his Lich master, of course. His peers thought so. They lacked ambition. To be fair, so did he. But there was just that something that kept nagging at him. A spark that no other skeleton seemed to have. Other than being the sassy bullshitter obsessed with mana that he was, why did Skullius vaguely remember being something other than a Moronic Undead drone once? What had come before his Undeath? In the end, it was this spark that allowed our atrocious hero to escape the clutches of his evil master and reach another world. And it is in this world, chock full of dangers – most beckoned by Skullius’ abnormally horrendous luck, to be honest – that the skeleton’s journey begins. In Aigas – the new world – he prepared for the greatest getback of an age armed with a power greater than that of the Liches of Deadmanland! ...... [Author’s Answers To Popular Readers’ Questions] Q: (IHateArjuun77) -Hey author, is your book trash?- A: (Author) -Haha, screw you dear reader. The answer is NO. The story has elements of comedy, action, magic, adventure and Brutality. Like it gets really dark sometimes. There’s a comprehensive story with characters that I tried my damndest to NOT make generic on top of a cool power system that’s for the most part easy to understand. So its not trash. Q: (IFreakingHateArjuun56) -Hey author why is your first volume so slow paced and... trash?- A: (Author) -Haha. It’s how I designed the First Volume to be. It’s a fun setup that doesn’t focus on many things other than the MC’s mentality, powers and route of progression. The next volumes are normal paced, focusing on the world, the villains and general expansion but all while still retaining the book theme and fun experience- Q: (ShadeIsAPervert001) -Hey author, I instinctively sense that I’ll hate this book, when should I drop? A: (Author) -Is this the same reader?! Anyway, I’ll give a range. Read a minimum of the first 20 chapters to a max of up to chapter 44 before you decide on anything too rash. I’ll hunt down this reader! --- Discord: [ https://discord.gg/8hcraTjzE9 ]

Marrying the horrendous King of Lievca couldn't get any worse since Elsie, the white princess of Sevannah, had heard a myriad of tales about the unfortunate demise of Lievca's Queen that had plagued the kingdom half a decade ago. And Moon, never has she ever thought her life would play a sick game on her that has her thrown into the high walls of The Great Lievca. Never in her wildest dreams had Elsie imagined she would end up baring her neck to the mysterious monarch of Lievca to mark her as his — which very much could grant her a death sentence. Because Ace, the King of Lievca, is fighting a war no one sees — one against the demons clawing through his mind, whispering of blood and betrayal. "Don't get too close, it's where my demons hide..." But when whispers from the past claw their way back into the court, and Elsie starts seeing flickers of the dead Queen in mirrors and dreams, she realizes the demon in the King may not be the only one lurking in Lievca. And if she doesn’t face her own inner darkness, she might not survive the crown — or the King who was never meant to love again.

In the chaos of apocalypse, she had endured torture and injustice in the hands of her own husband who had sold her off to other men just to fill his belly. Haunted and scarred, Bai Mingyue thought the Heaven's had smiled on her and gave her a second chance to life by letting her become a boy after her death. But before she could feel relieved, she slowly learns the truth of the chaotic world she was plunged into. *** "You're still trying to play dumb? You think I won't know because you don't say? Do I look like a fool to you?" Jiang Xiuran's tone rose by a few decibels. "Your heat began. When did your omega genes activate? Spit it out and don't you dare look away when I'm talking to you, Fang Mingyue!" His voice was low, icy and laced with potent threat but Mingyue could hardly fathom what she was talking about! "You still won't talk,huh?" "Don't you realize how dangerous it was for you to roam around in that kind of state? Are you begging to be defiled in public?!" "You think the world will show you mercy just because you act innocent? What if a rogue alpha catches your scent while your brothers aren't around? Do you think you can fight them off with that frail body?" Mingyue stared, stunned and felt like she was going deaf. Heat? Omega? G-Get... r*pe in public? She shuddered and her expression turned awry and extremely pallid. But she's a man now! She badly wanted to retort yet her voice was caught in her shaking throat. Why?! Just why would she still be subjected into that horrendous thing even as a man?! Is there really no safe place for her? Not even in this place? Just what kind of world had she been thrown into?

“You know, I’ve met death. Rather polite, actually. But it doesn’t knock, just lets himself in.” Life. That fleeting flicker between two eternities of silence. People spend it chasing things—money, love, validation, a good seat on the train. They build empires of paper, relationships of glass, and sleep each night under the illusion that tomorrow has been promised. But it hasn’t. It never was. Death doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t care if you’re a king or a child. It arrives like an old friend, or a thief, or worse—like something you invited in. And yet… every now and then, the universe hiccups. A soul slips through. A crack opens. A second life is born—not as a reward, no, but as a test. Because what could be more dangerous than a man who's seen how the story ends—and comes back knowing exactly what not to do? But here’s the rub: a second chance is not a reset. It’s a curse with velvet gloves. You remember the pain, the loss, the betrayal—and worst of all, the choices you didn’t make. So when someone tells you this is just a story about life and death, smile politely. In many cases—in most cases—you’ll hear stories of heroes rising from the ashes, grateful for their second breath. However… in my case? I wanted to be the villain. To see a different end to this story. People say a person’s nature is hard to change. That deep down, we are who we are. But I changed... simply because I was curious. --------------- Join the discord server. https://discord.gg/BaP4c8b8Vq

[Female Alpha× Male omega] ................................................. Arthur watched as the gaze of the alpha in front of him not moving the slightest as she then grinned, making him heat up and blush, forcing him to look away from her dangerously beautiful face. And then, she spoke, her eyes obsessively wandering around his lips now, making Arthur feel like he might burn away from just the gaze of those eyes alone. "So, you agreed to marry me?" "Mm." "I want words, love." "Y-yeah." Arthur couldn't help but stutter out of nowhere. "That's more like it. Use that sweet voice of yours more, sweetheart. Understood?" "Y-yeah." He stuttered again. "And it should be louder in bed, got it love?" "Th-Hic!" Arthur suddenly hiccupped and covered his mouth hurriedly, secretly glancing at her but locking eyes accidently, making him feel even more miserable now. God he can't really blush any more than this. He was exhausted just being at her gaze already. Why was she so perfect and hot and sexy and breathtakingly beautiful and intimidating? 'God, this woman...' "You know what, my love? Blushing and looking at me like that...I don't know how I am holding back from just throwing you into a wall and fucking your brains out and making you a complete breathless mess." Her beath was heavy and Arthur knew. She meant it all. She was serious. And he was into it...very much. His eyes must have sparkled with the excitement as she then smirked, leaning close to him. And then she whispered. "You are going to be the death of me Arthur. I swear to god I am going to make you the happiest omega alive." * * * Note: Omegaverse Female Alpha × Male Omega And, yes, that alpha here has a cock. (If you are not a fan of this trope, then please don't move further. I already warned you, so don't complain later. Thank you.) (I don't own the cover art.)

Crossover Fanfiction: My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU × The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya.. Hikigaya Hachiman thought he had endured the worst of high school life—awkward social landmines, forced Service Club assignments, and navigating the emotional labyrinths of girls he could never quite understand. That was before Haruhi Suzumiya transferred to Sobu High. Loud, brilliant, unhinged—and worst of all, bored—Haruhi is determined to revive her infamous SOS Brigade by targeting the most "interesting" people she can find. Unfortunately for Hachiman, his dead-eyed cynicism and psychological insight make him the ultimate enigma in her eyes. Yukino Yukinoshita isn’t far behind. Yui Yuigahama, as always, gets caught in the gravitational pull. But Haruhi isn’t just another eccentric student. Reality itself bends subtly around her will. Events repeat. Time hiccups. People act strangely. Only Hachiman seems to notice—and only Yuki Nagato, a quiet new transfer with unsettling calm, seems to understand. What begins as a war of social manipulation turns into something far deeper: a silent battle for control of reality, identity, and emotional truth. As Haruhi and Hachiman clash in escalating games of dominance, club activities, and unspoken yearning, the seams of the world start to unravel. In the end, this isn’t just about clubs or friendships or even romance. It’s about who gets to write the story—and who dares to rewrite it. ---

In the peaceful (if slightly peculiar) village of Laurel, Milo Greenroot just wants to take naps, sip questionable tea, and avoid anything that smells like responsibility. Unfortunately, when you’re the village’s only certified herbalist—with a knack for mixing explosive potions and accidental truth serums—peace is never on the menu. Joined by his sarcastic best friend Luca and his overly responsible apprentice Alma, Milo stumbles from one cozy catastrophe to the next: gossip-fueled uprisings, potion-fueled hiccup plagues, and cats with better judgment than most adults. As strange brews stir stranger consequences, Milo finds himself helping his neighbors in unexpected ways—and maybe, just maybe, discovering that even the laziest herbalist has a part to play in something bigger (like saving the town from its own chaos). A heartwarming, laugh-out-loud slice-of-life adventure with potions, peculiar villagers, and the power of tea-induced honesty. Discord: https://discord.gg/4esnyc5R

Follow Louie and his angelic bride as they navigate their unconventional relationship and embark on adventures in this slow-burn, spicy romance. Excerpt: "What do you propose then?" She asked, lifting her head off his leg and taking a drink from her glass. "You're letting me decide?" He smirked, putting his drink on the side table and leaning forward. "I didn't say I'd agree." She rolled her eyes before turning and leaning her back against his legs, placing her own glass on the ground next to her. Lucifer leaned back against the couch and stretched his arms across the back of it, "I was just going to suggest you make right on our deal from earlier." He proposed. "Ahh." She answered, tilting her head back so she could see Lucifer's face, which held an amused look and a genuine smile, "You really think you held up your end, huh?" She asked with her own smirk, once again letting her head rest on his legs as she looked straight up at the star-speckled sky. She was a wee bit tipsy, and maybe that had something to do with how she was feeling, but it really was a beautiful night. With the warmth of the little balcony playing alongside the moment of sharing their deepest pains with one another, She found herself not only feeling closer but also quite comfortable with her Devil. "Undoubtedly." He replied to her question, and she raised a brow, "Admittedly, there was a hiccup or two, but nothing that ruined the evening." He defended, "Plus, I resolved them, did I not?" "A hiccup?" She scoffed, looking as far up as her eyes would allow so she could see him, "Someone tried to kill me, Luce." Lucifer placed a hand on each cheek and leaned over her so that he stared directly into her eyes. Pools of blue looking down and sparkling emeralds looking up, "Tried." He said in almost a whisper. She felt his warm breath on her forehead while his hair tickled her face, "Didn't I protect you? Kept you safe?" "I suppose," She agreed, blushing as he shifted forward a bit more so that his lips were now just an inch or so above hers. "Then may I please have what you promised me?" Lucifer asked again. She swallowed and gave a slight nod.

In a world of swords, sorcery, and spiritual supremacy... one stoner will rise higher than them all. Tyler "Toke" Greenfield was just another burnout from Humboldt County—until a cosmic hiccup yanked him into the Qi-Realm, a land where powerful cultivators soar across the skies and clash for divine treasures. But Tyler isn’t here to fight for glory or ascend to immortality. He’s here to farm the dankest spiritual herb in all of existence. Armed with the mysterious Ganja Cultivation System and a passive ability that supercharges plant growth, Tyler revives the long-forgotten Verdant Leaf Sect—one puff at a time. From chill-inducing Spirit Kush to galaxy-tier Cosmic Chronic, his crops are so potent they break cultivation bottlenecks, summon divine beings, and even cause ancient sects to panic. He just wants to vibe and roll a few, but the heavens have other plans. Can Tyler stay lit enough to outsmoke celestial trials, dodge greedy cultivators, and spark a revolution through herbal enlightenment? Or will he become the blunt of someone else’s ambitions?

I was fine with its writing before but now i realise that its absolutely horrendous.

He is trapped in a perilous round of endurance as she penetrates his life, mutilating reality and scrutinizing his ethics. Is it safe to say that he is her associate or her casualty? Also, how far will he go to move away from her when the differentiation among defender and hunter becomes cloudy?

Gabriel was just another unlucky nerd – until he was sucked into Faytheria, a world where vampires eat chocolate, goddesses have teenage meltdowns, and magic is as unpredictable as a dragon with hiccups. Now, he's the "Player," a human hated by everyone, marked by a petulant goddess, and in love with the most sarcastic and dangerous vampire at the Arcane School. Between spellcasting classes that go wrong, bizarre detentions, and gala balls with mythological creatures, Gabriel just wants to survive. But with Seraphine Noctaria, the vampire who loves to literally play with her food, on his tail, Gabriel's life (or unlife) becomes a hilarious comedy of errors. And the burning question is: in the end, will Gabriel become dinner, or will he dine on a vampire?

Mani had a lot of secrets. Hiding in his office, he pretended to be someone he was not until his safe space disappeared in a day. Coworkers that he ignored for years pulled him along to participate in saving their world. None of them knew what they were doing, yet they marched forward together. Once out of his shell Mani stepped into the greatest adventure of his life. (Included: mature topics of young adults self discovery, middle age identity crisis, and senior citizen moonshine addiction. Consider yourself warned.) *** Mani swirled pink liquid in his cup "This is called a moonshine right? Moonshine.. it should not make us blind right?" he drank it while still pondering pros and cons of drinking it in their current situation. "Well, did not make me blind," Yax offered his expert opinion "and I've been pilfering it from my dad since like.." he really could not remember, seemed like forever already. He reached to get another bottle and tumbled all the empty ones to the ground. Cid pulled him back by his shoulder "Sit down, I'll do it." he refilled Yax's cup on the right and Mani's cup on the left, then filled his own in the middle. With closed eyes, he enjoyed strawberry aroma wafting up from this holy drink. Mani bravely emptied his cup "Did we really saw it back there" he whispered from left "it was so much bigger than.." he trailed off in search of proper example. "Yep, we saw it" Yax's answer came from the right "it was absolutely huge." Mani leaned over Cindy and looked at Yax seriously "Do you think we will need magic to move it?" He did bring along his beads. Yax also leaned over to give his most serious answer "Naah, it should have an engine somewhere in there to move it. I heard" he looked around carefully and whispered so only Mani could hear "my dad said it's technology so ancient that it was sealed away, to keep it safe. It's better than magic." At the other side of their campfire, Ivory huffed while trying to snatch last bottle of holy moonshine from Jone who gently pushed him back while seriously stating "All technology at certain point starts resembling magic to those who do not understand it." "Hear, hear" Blaze confirmed from his spot on the ground with one hand waving up and showing a peace sign for some reason. Next to him, twins were out and snoring already. Mani pursed his lips and looked up into the sky. He could not see any real moonshine, leaves blocked the sky, but it should still be up there somewhere. He still hoped to get some magic, it would be awesome to get some real superpowers. He hiccuped, while leaning on Cindy next to him. Well, he kinda did have some already, or those do not count? Yax leaned fully on Cid, snuggling. He had to admit some parts were rather mystical. Like this holy potion. Or Mani. Mani was most definitely something magical. But he is not going to say it. And no one can know what he thinks to himself. He grinned, satisfied by himself and his skill to keep secrets. Squished between two drunks, Cid rolled his eyes, there goes Yax, spilling the beans to whoever wants to listen his 'secret thoughts'. Not like anyone was sober enough to pay any attention. "Time to end this party." Cid said while standing up and dragging Yax towards the tent he shared with Ivory. "Tomorrow is another day where we have to rise up and do our best to save the world." Even though he knew that all they were saving is themselves. And their friends. Well, that is his whole world, really. The forest was silent, darkness was endless, beasts were hiding. With closed eyes and half asleep, Blaze was sure that he can hear gods above laughing, louder and louder from that abyss they call home. ...___...

This book is nothing but a vie, a look into the life of many yet none, just a peek at something that is there within a person. That fact drives us further.

"Cheers!" Four glass cups clinked gently together. Inside the rather cramped room, three men and a woman sat cross - legged around a low table. The four, holding their cups, had fiery eyes. Peanut shells and bread crumbs were scattered on the table. "You're something, really something. What on earth have you done? You actually made that big - shot so surprised that his jaw nearly dropped." The woman leaned closer, her eyes full of allure. "Hmm, should I tell?" The man lifted his cup to his lips, deliberately playing hard - to - get. "If you don't tell, you're not a brother then." Another man raised his eyebrows. "It's not that I don't want to tell, but if I do, I'm in big trouble." The man continued to create mystery, focusing on sipping his wine. "Why?" The man sitting next to him asked in confusion. "Because..." The man leaned in ambiguously. "He promised me that if I gave him the name of the inventor, he would give me all his property. But, I have to keep it a secret." "Hey, you're not going to sell out for just a bit of money..." Another man said. "Get out while you can. That's my principle." The man said in a low voice, and on purpose, he blew hot air onto the neck of the man beside him, making him laugh softly. "Besides, with this money, Xiaomo and I can live comfortably for a lifetime, right?" The man playfully picked up the pull - ring of the beer can. "Marry me? I'll give you a mansion, plus a yacht, and two unlimited - credit platinum cards. Take you to Europe in summer and to Tahiti in winter. We don't have to work 365 days a year. Just lie..." "Pah, pah, pah. What nonsense you're talking." The man quickly covered the other's mouth. "Someone's listening." "Oh, we were just about to go for a walk. Make yourself at home, feel free." The woman waved her hand and stood up unsteadily. "Take care. I'll pay off the rent I owe you in one lump sum tomorrow." The man didn't turn his head. Instead, with a ferocious expression, he pressed himself on another man, making him struggle and laugh loudly. "You're so heavy. Get off me quickly!" "Oh? I have to calculate this carefully. For two people? Charge you 10,000 per person per month. By now, you exactly owe 2.4 million. In these unstable times, only cash or checks are accepted." The woman hiccuped. "Don't worry. No problem." The man turned his head and laughed at them. "I won't renege. Are you still afraid that..." However, halfway through his words, as a shadow fell, the man's face suddenly turned deathly pale. Not only him, the other three people looked in the direction he was staring at. Several men had entered the door and were standing in the entrance hall. "Which one is Tony Zhang? We need you to come with us." In the hands of the five men were shiny black firearms.
