The seasoned player of "Abyss of Stars," the [Starfall Master] Li Zi, brings a system template and travels to the game's world, arriving in the era of the game's beta version. This is the worst of times. The cosmic forces and conglomerates collude, causing the doors to the universe to be closed, the planet's resources to be exhausted, and even sunlight to be monopolized. This is also the best of times. All the extraordinary systems are just beginning. In this era, he is the only [Starfall Master] with the final version patch. While people are enthralled by the smoke of plasma guns and cannons, Li Zi has already torn apart battleships with gravity. While superhumans are smug about their awakened abilities, moonlight has already become Li Zi's servant. While the interstellar fleet crosses the Milky Way, Li Zi has just ignited the forty-second star, illuminating the entire universe. "People have been trapped on the ground for too long; they've forgotten that this starry sky should belong to all of us." —Facing the unspeakable aboriginal evil gods, Li Zi, holding a black hole, gently said.

“I'm on the hunt for someone special, someone who would howl at the full moon with me. And you, my dear, seem to check all the right boxes,” Thorin tried to seduce Riona with his mesmerizing gaze. “Not in this lifetime, not in any lifetime.” But Riona couldn’t stand the sight of that smug face. What did Thorin hope to gain from a fangless vampire who couldn’t even turn into a bat, anyway? There must be something seriously wrong with the brain of that infuriating Alpha werewolf. *** Since their parents died, Riona Kahler and her brother have been adopted by the King of Eira, who treats them more like overworked houseplants than a cherished family. As the only vampires in Eira without fangs, they're outcasts among their own kind, toothless and ridiculed. Riona's spirit remains unbroken until her brother falls ill due to the palace's cruelty. Determined to protect him, Riona vows to escape, but there's only one way to do that. Thorin Klein is one of the most famous Alpha werewolves, renowned not only for his charming looks but also for claiming the Alpha title at the tender age of thirteen. Despite his howling success, his mother’s powerful werewolf clan, the Klein, never acknowledged him because his father went rogue. Determined to prove his worth to the Klein clan, Thorin believes he has finally found a potential solution. Though Riona couldn’t stand being around Thorin for more than one second, Riona realizes that marriage is their only path to achieving their goals. It's a love story that bites and barks in all the right places. #werewolf #Alpha #vampire #fromslavetoqueen #enemiestolovers #strongFL #contractmarriage

[MATURE CONTENT] Arella is an angel. Well, she used to be an angel. A real, bona fide, halo-wearing, wing-flapping celestial being. That was until one tiny whoopsie where she unfortunately burns a pair of wings at a banquet happens. Fine! There was more than one tiny whoopsie. Fast forward a few hours later, and Arella found herself booted from the pearly gates with nothing but her wings and an eviction notice. Her family called it a "vacation." Ha! A vacation, in the human realm of all places! One hundred years later, Arella calls it her new life. Turns out, living among humans isn’t half bad—especially when you can turn invisibly smug at their lack of ability to fly. Early retirement has never been so blissful. That is, until the heavens smack her face with a message: Arella’s back on duty. And her new job? Marry. The. Demon. King. Wait, what?! Marrying the Demon King isn’t exactly on Arella’s bucket list, especially when demons and angels have been sworn enemies for eons. But orders are orders. So, off she goes, wings drooping and attitude cranked to full sass, to meet her new husband—a devilishly handsome demon who seems unnervingly smitten with her. Not to mention the heat that surges within her the moment she lays her eyes on him. Cue in dinner dates, fiery arguments (literally), and a series of catastrophes involving Arella purposefully setting a demon's hair ablaze with her holy fire. But as Arella settles into this bizarre celestial-demonic union, she uncovers a sinister plot that threatens not just her marriage but their entire reality. Turns out, angels and demons might have to join forces to stop a threat that neither side can handle alone. And Arella? She might just be the unexpected key to saving everyone. Armed with nothing but her quick wit, trusty angelic powers, and a painfully doting husband who may or may not leave her love notes carved into rock when she is angry, Arella must navigate battles, betrayals, and the occasional marital spat to protect their world. After all, nothing says “happily ever after” like saving existence itself, .... right? Right? One fallen angel. One absolutely smitten demon king. And a whole lot of chaos.

NOTE: THIS IS ALL FANFIC OUT OF MY IMAGINATION. Sean Xiao (Xiao Zhan. I'll direct him as such in this novel it might be a short story or maybe longer than I expected let's hope and read together) Sean Xiao and Wang jie(Wang yibo. I'll also direct him as such in the novel). are twins born on the same day. Sean, was just few seconds older than Wang jie. But they were separated due to an unexpected event which was still strange to the Xiao family. In summary, this is a story about two un-identical twin brothers who were separated... I'm even confused with the summary. I only have the idea. I suggest you read and enjoy. Additional note: no r-rated events maybe cuss words but I'll try to be as innocent as I've claimed to be. I'm an innocent mind. just enjoy the brothers who go through ups and downs with great turn of events and later of course, a reassured fate. _____________________________________ Remember to support your lovely author.

Jake had always dreamed of reincarnating into a fantasy world—wielding magic, slaying monsters, and becoming a legendary hero. So when an angel appeared before him, offering him a choice between Heaven and Hell, he grinned and said, “Hell yeah.” He didn’t mean it literally. Offended by his smugness, the angel cast him straight into the depths of Hell. And when he finally clawed his way back into the living world, something was wrong. Terribly wrong. Now, in a world ravaged by shadowy abominations and floating islands of magic, Jake finds himself feared and hunted. The first person he saves—an injured girl—looks at him with horror, calling him the very monster that burned her village to the ground. Confused and desperate for answers, Jake soon learns the truth: he is the monster. Not human. Not even close. Elsewhere, in the depths of Hell, Lucifer lounges on his throne, smirking. "Ah… I forgot to mention—he might not reincarnate as a human." Now, forced to survive in a world that hates him, Jake must uncover the secrets of his rebirth, master his monstrous abilities, and decide—will he embrace his fate or defy it? One thing is certain: he’s not the same person he was before. And this world is about to find out why.

Lin Yunfeng screwed up. Big time. One mistake. That’s all it was. A stupid, drunken mistake. So why the hell was Ren Muchen chasing him down a creepy-ass abandoned hallway like a maniac?! "You slept with me and ran? Fine! Let’s see how long you last!" Uh, yeah. No thanks. Yunfeng ran faster, heart pounding—until he skidded to a stop. Right in front of a half-rotten zombie. "Oh, come on!" Before he could even process his impending doom, the thing lunged. His life flashed before his eyes. Then—WHACK. A massive axe took the zombie’s head clean off. And just like that, Muchen was grabbing his collar, hauling him up like a ragdoll. "You’re not dying," Muchen said, looking way too smug for someone who just saved his life. "Not today. Not anytime soon." Yunfeng barely got his breath back before Muchen dropped the biggest bomb ever. "Because we’re having a baby." Wait. What?! Yunfeng clutched his stomach. "H-How do you know?!" "You KNEW?!" Muchen shook him like a damn rattle. "And you still ran? Take responsibility, you bastard! We made a life!" Well. Shit. There was officially no running from this.

I was sent to kill the Demon King. Why? Because my shitty stepmother convinced my weak-ass father that if I didn’t, my precious stepsister might one day be killed by demons. Never mind the fact that I’m the Princess of the Elf Kingdom and an elite assassin who has spent years slaughtering demons for fun. But when I finally sneak into the Demon King's castle, ready to end his existence, I don’t find a weak target. I find Xareth. My childhood friend. My former ally. The man who is now the most powerful demon in existence. And instead of a fight to the death, he does something way worse. He drops me on the floor, smirks like the arrogant bastard he is, and shows me a marriage contract. Signed by my parents. Selling me off. To HIM. To protect my stepsister. Now, I’m stuck in his castle, surrounded by demons, forced into a marriage I never agreed to. I should be planning my escape. I should be stabbing him in his smug fucking face. Instead, I’m throwing wine bottles at nobles, beating the shit out of my stepsister, and getting bitten on the neck like a damn snack. And Xareth? That bastard just keeps smirking, watching me lose my mind, like he planned this all along. But if he thinks I’ll ever be his obedient little queen, he’s got another thing coming. Because I may be his wife. But I am NOT his.

Abused and thrown away in a container, Mallory, eighteen years old, thinks that this is it; this is how her life is ending and what a tragic life it has been. But fate isn't done with her yet. Hunter Brown, a low-life gangster, is passing by an alleyway when he is alerted by the cries from a rolled-up carpet thrown in a container. She told him to let her die, but he decided to save her life. This is a novel about generations of secrets of the Wraith family being unfolded and an abused and broken girl who has to run for her life while trying to heal and start over. ________________________________________ Mallory walked into the dayroom, balancing a stack of dirty plates in her hands, each step echoing heavily on the floor. Seizing the moment, an uninterested Calvin Wraith decided to trip her as she passed by his seat, where he was engrossed in playing Snake on his phone. With a loud crash, Mallory stumbled and fell, sending the plates crashing to the ground and scattering everywhere. The commotion caught Mrs. Wraith's attention, and she rushed into the room, fuming with anger at the chaos. "Stupid girl!" Mrs. Wraith scolded and placed a hard slap across Mollory's face. With ringing ears and burning tears in her eyes, Mallory took a deep breath, striving to keep her voice steady as she pleaded, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Wraith. I'll clean this up right away." Lowering her gaze, she could hear Calvin snickering from the sofa, a smug grin on his face. "Yes, you will. I expect this room to be spotless in under an hour," Mrs. Wraith snapped, shoving Mallory aside before storming out. "Why did you do that?" Mallory asked, her voice strained as she looked up at Calvin after Mrs. Wraith had closed the door. Calvin stood up and moved closer, stopping just inches away from the frightened Mallory.

For centuries, they existed alongside humanity—beings with shifting forms, unnatural abilities, and no place to belong. Feared, hunted, and cast into the shadows, they were seen as monsters. Demons. Not because they were, but because it was the only way humans could understand them. When fear turned to control, they were captured. Experimented on. Locked away in labs deep underground, stripped of their names, their identities, their freedom. To the world above, they were nothing more than forgotten myths. But secrets never stay buried forever. Sixteen-year-old Ryu Mikael wasn’t thinking about any of that. He had bigger problems—like the homework he forgot to do. Instead of facing another lecture at school, he decided to ditch, heading into the mountains to get some peace and finally finish his work. Away from the noise. Away from everything. Then he saw him. A stranger. Standing there, still yet tense, his head tilting slightly—watching. There was something unnatural in the way he moved, like a predator studying prey. Then, in an instant, he lunged. And Mikael’s life changed forever.

Called from their homes to face the trials, Matthew and his friends must battle both monsters and themselves.

I am Reisuke Fujiwara. The King of the Streets. A gangster feared and respected by all. But even I couldn’t escape fate — Truck-kun spares no one. Waking up before some smug god, I learned my life wasn’t over. I was thrown into the body of a crown prince — kind and soft, like a plush teddy bear.

I play by my own game.

Kayn just wants a normal school life. No drama, no trouble—just study hard, blend in, and become a Royal Knight. But there’s one tiny problem… He looks like the final boss of a dark fantasy game. Towering muscles? Check. Demonic red eyes? Yep. Mysterious aura of overwhelming doom? Unfortunately, yes. And just to make things worse: Zero magic (but can punch a dragon into orbit). Completely immune to spells (mages are crying). Every weapon he touches instantly breaks (at this point, it's just sad). Despite his best efforts to be a normal student, everyone is losing their minds. The so-called "hero" candidates are convinced he’s the reincarnation of a legendary Demon Lord and live in constant fear of his “inevitable world domination.” The professors and nobles despise him because he’s a peasant. And worst of all? Every villainess in the academy is in love with him. Cold-blooded crime heiresses, mischievous assassins, and even demon princesses see Kayn as their perfect bad-boy soulmate. No matter how hard he tries to avoid trouble, misunderstandings keep throwing him into the spotlight! His dream of a peaceful student life? DEAD ON ARRIVAL. Now, Kayn has to survive academy life without accidentally conquering the school, triggering an all-out war, or—heaven forbid—becoming the next Demon Lord. (Seriously, why does everyone think that?!)

“What happens when you come face to face with the end of the world, get saved and taken to a new one, apparently? I had no idea what lay in store for me, but I never truly imagined anything like this, giant monsters worshiped by crazy cultists, robot soldiers and a whole new crazy reality filled with power beyond understanding… What can I say, at least it’s not boring”

I had finally done it—crafted the ultimate Paladin build. Maxed-out stats, armor tougher than a fortress, and so many resistances that even death had given up trying. I was an unbreakable wall, an unstoppable force. Nothing could take me down. Then my PC exploded. And just like that, I died. Fate really has a messed-up sense of humor. But instead of moving on to the afterlife, I woke up as my Paladin character… in a world that made absolutely no sense. No knights, no castles, no dark dungeons—just people zipping through the air on swords and firing off energy blasts like magical railguns. "This is definitely not where I’m supposed to be," I muttered, just as a smug-looking noble sneered down at me. "Kneel, kiss my boot, and beg for mercy!" he demanded. I glanced at my maxed health bar and then at his punchable face. I decided to help him reincarnate gently—Divine Smite, Judgment of Light, Wrath of the Heavens, Purging Flames...

boyxboy Alphius [a very sassy AI] x Rian [a very grumpy robotics genius] Rule #1 of surviving the 22nd century: Never adopt a sassy AI from the dumpster. Especially if he’s hot. Rian is a robotics prodigy who’d rather talk to his overenthusiastic microwave than actual humans. His life? Tinkering with robots, writing codes, avoiding sunlight, and adding the quirkiest AI personalities into his household appliances. But when he drags home an android named Alphius from the dumpster — a smug, sassy disaster with a face “designed to ruin my productivity”— his quiet(ish) life implodes. The problem? • Alphius claims he’s “just a humble trash gremlin”… but he’s clearly lying. • His code is alive — a self-evolving tangle of algorithms that rewrites itself faster than Rian can debug. Every line he cracks spawns ten more, whispering secrets about a past Rian can’t remember… and a future he’s not ready to face. • He’s weirdly obsessed with Rian’s “abomination-grade” coffee (as proclaimed by the coffee machine, who’s considering unionizing). • His glitching screens keep flashing warnings about an incoming asteroid, but Rian could not find a single news on it.
