Have you ever felt that a 'dream' is far too vivid to be mere imagination? As if you were truly 'there,' experiencing the life of 'someone else' in a different world... 'Zen' is an ordinary young man who has lived with these surreal experiences his entire life. But when the 'Echoes' from the other side of his dreams grow clearer and more powerful, he begins to realize... this is no longer just a dream. It is the 'Resonance' of spiritual waves. Every 'self' in each universe he touches has a life and feelings of their own; it's just that their 'soul waves' align with Zen's in a strange way, like a radio tuned to the perfect frequency. This allows him to 'perceive' and 'connect' with their experiences, memories, and even their powers. From a watcher in unfamiliar worlds to discovering a dormant power, and the truth that all life in the multiverse may be connected through these invisible 'waves'. "One Dream, A Thousand Universes" is the journey of a young man awakened from the world he once knew to confront the secrets of the multiverse—a story of combat, magic, advanced technology, and the very meaning of 'life' reflected through the mysterious waves of Resonance. If you've ever felt that "this world might not be our only one," or have questioned the 'reality' you perceive... perhaps Zen's story is an echo from your own universe as well. Come, journey with him and find the answers... in a world where every dream, and every 'wave' you feel, may hold more meaning than you could ever imagine. Note: This story was originally written in Thai and lovingly translated into English by the author himself. While some expressions may differ slightly from standard English, every line carries the author’s intent and emotion as closely as possible.

Not every horror story gets released. Some are buried. Forgotten. Or never meant to be seen. These are the films that whisper in projection rooms, flicker through broken reels, and show up on tapes no one remembers recording. “Each novel is a standalone nightmare—scripted, cast, and directed by a man no one remembers hiring.” The Director. No one has seen his face. No one has survived two of his films. You're not reading a novel. You're watching his cut. Just pray he never turns the camera on you. --- ## Book 1: My Husband is a Serial Killer (and He Doesn't Know It) The reel clicks to life in an empty theater. Frame one: a woman's trembling hands holding a bloodstained journal. The handwriting inside matches her husband's perfectly—each confession detailing murders that made headlines, each date stamped with precision. Behind the camera, something breathes. Mara Lockwood thought she'd escaped her fractured past when she married Daniel Kessler—a gentle trauma therapist who forgets where he puts his keys, loses hours to daydreams, and loves her with desperate intensity. Their seaside home feels safe. Quiet. Until the journal surfaces from a locked drawer, its pages filled with Daniel's careful script describing acts of violence he swears he never committed. The camera never blinks. As bodies surface along the fog-drenched Oregon coast and Detective Elara Finch closes her investigation net, Mara faces an impossible choice: expose the man she loves or become his accomplice. Because the deeper she digs, the more she discovers about their shared time at Haven Creek Mental Health Facility—memories that were supposed to stay buried. Daniel's blackouts are getting worse. His sleepwalking more violent. And someone keeps leaving notes on Mara's windshield: "He doesn't remember what you made him do." In the projection booth, a clapperboard snaps. The Director adjusts his focus. He's been waiting for this story—one where the audience can't tell who's performing and who's just pretending to be real. Because if Daniel's the killer, Mara might be the reason he became one. And if she's covering for him... The film has already started. --- Disclaimer: All characters are original.

I read King of Gods(Great story by the way) and got kind of annoyed that we didn't see many of the 10,000 Ancient Races in the story. Therefore I am going to try to make my own 10,000 True Bloodlines to maybe have if I ever bother to write a book with them in it. Also I just kind of want to prove that it is possible to do. If you have any thing you think could work you are free to add any comments and I will try to incorporate them.

Lucy is a breathtakingly beautiful girl raised in a poor village by her cruel, manipulative aunt, koko, who teaches her that she is destined for greatness nothing less than becoming the Empress of chimneys, But to reach that throne, Lucy must leave behind everything she knows: her humble beginnings, her kindhearted childhood love Mark, and, perhaps most dangerously, her own morality. Guided by a dark prophecy and fueled by ambition, Lucy enters the imperial palace, where she must navigate palace intrigue, betrayal, ancient magic, and the dark god who promises her power in exchange for her soul. This is a story about the price of destiny and what happens when a girl begins to believe she deserves more than the world has given her.

From the first breath, I was accumulating points. Now, I see that my father abandoned me, and my mother despises me. What more is left of filial piety? Who would worship such despicable people, I’ll conquer the world instead.

The world I transmigrated is filled with players, with survival already a struggle. Moreover, I was entangled with a System to become the most visible NPC... The natives resent me while players see me as a thorn in their side. I needed to strive with all my might to live a good life in this foreign world while avoiding being bullied by the players. I can only turn the sufferings I experienced into the sufferings of others. I would have to keep all the benefits for myself, grow vigorously, and become an invincible boss who could never be defeated by players... This is a tale of the classic Fourth Day Disaster story while being struck by the disaster itself. My completed work of over ten thousand subscriptions, "Dream Master of Ten Thousand Worlds" is a testament to my credibility. Feel free to dive into it.

I was a dying physicist. Now I’m a condemned concubine on a dead moon—with a broken body, a forgotten name, and a system whispering in my mind. When I opened my eyes, I was no longer on Earth. I had been reborn in the Celestial Empire, a realm of immortal dynasties, cultivation across star systems, and spirit beasts bound to warships. My new identity? Lady Shen—a discarded imperial consort accused of poisoning the Emperor and left to rot in exile. But fate has other plans. Bound to the Heavenly Mandate System, I’ve been chosen as a "host" in a divine protocol that merges ancient cultivation with lost galactic technologies. Quests. Upgrades. Secrets of a long-erased dynasty. To survive, I must rise—starting from zero, hunted by assassins, surrounded by political vipers, and entangled with a dangerous, cursed Emperor who seems to remember me from a life I never lived. This isn't just about clearing my name. This is war—for my soul, my freedom, and the stars themselves. I died once. I won’t die again. If I must ascend alone, so be it. If I must become Empress, then let the universe kneel.

A study of a Man.

Note: This is a novel with the Chinese title, "凤临天下：一后千宠" widely know as Fenglin Tianxia if anybody is familiar with it. This story is a time-travel fantasy novel written by Tengu Yueyan and completed in 2015. I found some raws and several versions of MTL online but I could barely understood most of it so I did my research and tried to translate it better to relax my mind. I know it is a weird way to relax but that is just how I do it. It tells the story of Ling Qingyu, an orphan girl who left her hometown after losing everything: her parents, her family's fortune, her engagement, her home. It is a story of revenge and success from hardwork. This novel has the transmigration theme as well as the reverse harem theme. I don't mean to give a spoiler but it seems that the FL will end up with about 15 great quality men which includes assassins, military generals and scholars to name a few. Our FL is just busy building her empire, connections and her harem! This is to fulfill the promise of vengeance to all that have past blood debts to the original owner of the FL's body.
