An Ocean Of Books

An ordinary cultivator - that was the best way to describe Zhao Yunxiao. Be it in terms of strength or talent, he had always been in the middle of the pack, neither excelling nor falling behind. However, he did not really think badly of his current situation. Some people were destined to become the stars in the skies, while some people were born to be like the rocks on the ground. The stars might be dazzling, but the rocks supported the earth itself. Both of them were necessary in order to maintain the balance of this world. As someone ordinary, Zhao Yunxiao did his best to live his ordinary life to the fullest. He was careful and meticulous, doing his best to make sure he understands everything fully instead of jumping into doing things. He knew his limits and did not dream of anything out of reach. Instead, all he wished for was to live a life of freedom. But one day, he realised that something seemed to be amiss. Perhaps he was mistaken all along. Perhaps even the rocks on the ground had their chance to shine under the right circumstances, even if only for the slightest of moments. This is the tale of an ordinary cultivator... until he was no longer ordinary. *** This story will be written for leisure and thus not be locked, but if you are feeling generous and wish to show your appreciation in monetary terms... https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/SweatingCloud

If there was an object that could grant any wish you wanted, what would you ask for? Most would ask for wealth and prosperity, while those who are sick would probably ask for health and safety. It sounds impossible, but what if something like that actually existed? ... Kirigaya Yuuya, a corporate slave, found himself in an unimaginable situation. After doing a good deed for a beggar, he was given a magical candy that supposedly granted wishes.

Fear and panic set in as he realized the fate of Arthur Vanitas was a miserable one—he was nothing more than a stepping stone for the protagonist. Just as despair started to overtake him, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind. [Ding! The System of a Thousand Worlds is ready to assist you!] [By completing the challenges and missions in the selected book worlds, the system guarantees a change in your fate!] [Mission 1: Complete the world titled "Rise of the Unwanted Queen!"] [Reward: Mastery of the Five Elements Talent and other mysterious rewards.] [Mission 2: Complete the world titled "The Destruction of the World by the White Mage."] [Reward: ...] And with that, Yuuya's journey to change his fate began. ... #Note: This is not a villain novel where the main character defeats the protagonist at every turn.

School Stories

Kang Jaeyoung had been close friends with Yeon Jeonghoo since their first year of middle school. With their parents mostly out of the picture, they naturally relied on each other throughout their struggles. But after being told that his soul was inadvertently placed in the wrong world, Jaeyoung is suddenly punished with nightmares. At first, they weren’t so bad, but they got increasingly disturbing over time. Eventually, they were so unbearable that he was afraid to fall asleep. It was then that he discovered that when he slept while being in some sort of physical contact with Jeonghoo, he drowsed restfully and dreamlessly. At that realization, Jaeyoung embarrassedly asked Jeonghoo to sleep beside him at night. But as their feelings grow even deeper than their initial depth, their “unrequited” loves become intertwined, breaking through the barrier and extending beyond. Light begins to peek through the cracks, undeniably bound to shed its beams upon hidden devotions once that wall inevitably collapses. Deeply devoted and clingy top (Yeon Jeonghoo) x Completely smitten and caring bottom (Kang Jaeyoung) *This. Is. An. Omegaverse! I repeat! OMEGAVERSE!!! *Friends to lovers *There will be smut *This is a light read. Do not expect incredible plot twists or excellent wording. There will be a few original aspects and I’m actively avoiding cliches, especially some VERY overused ones, but I can’t guarantee that they will be nonexistent.

Death and rebirth usually meant that one was reborn as an mortal human being not as an Immortal Devil. This was not part of the contract! And what's with this cliche of being the last of a dying noble family! And what's with this strange wishes! Hell No! Let me show you how a proper Devil's Contract is done!

Something horrible glimmers at the edge of his consciousness an event so catastrophic he left heaven in order to avoid it or prepare for it? A mission he embarked to bring Lucifer back however that has now changed his new mission wasn't to bring back his brethren rather he needed to kill Lucifer, and let the apocalypse happen. Excerpt: Prologue “A feathered wooden arrow shaft sticks out of my chest, black silky soft things why do they put them there anyway? Not that it matters. Dark red blood pools where the golden tipped arrow struck the chest pulverizing a rib tearing soft lung tissue underneath, breathing is difficult, extremely painful even. Lying on the ground a surface too soft and plain to be natural, blood continues to farther pool at my back, the celestial arrow must have gone through completely.” You will die Michael if you go on this journey You will die The warm fluid spreads under him almost a comforting presence except for the excruciating pain that comes with the open wound. “Humans! I thought they would love me” A labored chuckle ‘Yet here I am dying as a result of my arrogance, in retro-respect them killing each other ceaselessly should have been sign enough but no I had to heal them!’ strangely he wasn’t angry Elderine’s words reverberated endlessly in his mind. You will die You will die The sky shines twilight in the cloudy afternoon it would rain soon ‘Maybe it will wash away the blood, how optimistic of me.’ Blood continues to pour out ‘Michael the Arch-angel foiled by his kin and humans! Would make for a great poem I want to hear it.’ ‘How would it start…hmm…’ He groaned, life continued to flow out of him endlessly with every drop of his immortal blood. You will die A tear dropped from a corner of his eye down the side of his face, ‘Were angels capable of that? I guess so’ Another tear came out then more flowed out in pain, surprisingly he wasn’t crying because he was sad for himself, he had known his fate from the day he left heaven, but for those he couldn’t save, they had to suffer and die due to his recklessness he wouldn’t forgive himself or those who caused it “Elina…...Eva” he tried to shout raspy sounds came from his lips. You will die, You will return stronger than before. Soon he could not breathe any more, the Light became darkness. PS: just thought i should add this part this story does not in any way contravene or involve any type of religion, references to a religion if any are purely for fictional purposes, I do not intend to disrespect anyone.
