'What is my purpose?' He thought as he gazed at the carnage that surrounded him. With every step he takes countless perish, with every action countless mourn. Behind him legions so vast they cover the horizon and blot out the heavens. His soldiers, servants, friends, children. 'That's right.' He remembered with a tinge of melancholy, 'This is my purpose.' Author's note: High fantasy setting, with a heavy emphasis on action, army tactics, political schemes and world building. No harem and very little romance.

In a forgotten corner of the Infinite Heavens, Earth was once lost to the tides of cosmic conflict, its glory extinguished. But after a thousand years, the planet revived, becoming a beacon of unparalleled power, its energies drawn from the mysterious Origin Core. Now, Earth stands among the top forces in the Infinite Heavens, attracting both reverence and fear. Yu Tian, an ordinary man from a parallel Earth, is unknowingly bound to this destiny. Betrayed by his closest friend and thrust into an untimely death, his soul is pulled into a cycle of reincarnation. Reborn in the Azure Sky Realm, a middle-tier world, Yu Tian discovers that his new body contains a latent bloodline tied to Earth’s Origin Core, granting him extraordinary potential and setting him on a path far beyond his understanding. Bound to the Celestial Ascension System, Yu Tian is given the chance to rewrite his destiny. However, the system offers him choices that shape his journey, and the weight of his decisions will not only define his future but determine Earth’s place in the Infinite Heavens. From cultivating ancient powers to facing rivals and uncovering the forgotten truths of Earth’s resurgence, Yu Tian must navigate a treacherous path of power, betrayal, and revelation. With enemies lurking at every turn and the fate of worlds hanging in the balance, Yu Tian must ascend through realms, unlock the mysteries of the Origin Core, and ultimately defy the very forces that seek to control his destiny. "The heavens are vast, and the path to power is steep—will Yu Tian rise to claim his place among the gods or fall to the weight of destiny?"

The MMORPG 'EVR' was released unexpectedly one day, along with its advanced equipment that allowed players to fully immerse themselves in the game, even though prior VR technology wasn't nearly as realistic. To prevent people from replacing their real lives with the game, the servers were shut down during the day and on weekends. I was the best at the game, but since I had no friends or family, I could only watch and bet on sports while waiting for the servers to reopen—until the day I died and regressed to a week before the game was released. I know everything that will happen in the game. I know the game is not just realistic; it's real. And for some reason, I don't need to log out! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a no-harem story (and probably no romance, either, but you never know). It starts off quickly after narrating unnecessary details, so I suggest reading at least a few chapters to get to the heart of the story.

Arthur Sully was an ordinary man, grounded, determined, but stuck in the monotony of life. That was until fate, cruel and unexpected, struck him down in a tragic accident. When Arthur opens his eyes again, he finds himself in a foreign, untamed world, an endless forest teeming with terrifying monsters, alien flora, and dangers lurking at every turn. Struggling to comprehend his situation, Arthur soon discovers something extraordinary: he can adapt. Each time he faces death-through poison, claws, or fangs, his body evolves, becoming stronger, faster, and more resilient. Thrown into a brutal survival game, Arthur’s resolve is pushed to its limits as he learns to fight, adapt, and master his strange ability. Arthur must confront not only the monsters of this alien realm but also the terrifying truth of his existence. He must Adapt, evolve, survive, or die trying. Tags: World-hopping, Sci-fi, No-Harem, System, Kingdom-Building (2nd Arc). Though the novel has a System tag but it works only as a panel that shows his progress, abilities and has some nifty features.

Nova City, Earth - 2,150 A.D Ryne, an athletic teenager with a penchant for parkour, is trying his best to survive in a world that does nothing but punish him. Haunted by the sudden death of his mother six years prior, Ryne’s father forced him and his sister to move to the neglected and financially disadvantaged district known only as ‘Fracture’. Within this unforgiving environment, Ryne endures physical abuse from his father and psychological torment from his peers. All the while fiercely protecting his vulnerable younger sister. Just as hope fades, Ryne’s life takes an unexpected turn when he encounters Brad and his group, kindred spirits who share his passion for parkour. As their friendship deepens, Ryne finds a sense of family among his fellow inhabitants of Fracture. However, a mysterious voice whispered in Ryne’s ears. [The apocalypse is imminent, one month remains.] With time running out, he must hold on to hope in the face of despair. As the countdown to annihilation unfolds, the mysterious voice sets various tasks for Ryne. When the time ticks down to zero, people across the globe manifest bizarre and extraordinary abilities while the rest of humanity transforms into grotesque and monstrous creatures. Ryne must confront his inner demons and make a choice—cling to the flickering ember of hope or succumb to the overwhelming despair surrounding him—all the while navigating a landscape plagued by mutant beings. ----------------------------------------------------- Author's Note: As you may know, I'm also the author of My Undeath, a reincarnation novel set in a fantasy world. It wasn't my best work, but I loved writing the story. I put a lot more time and effort into Fractured Horizon, and ironed out the details over the course of a year before writing and publishing it here. If you liked My Undeath, this novel has almost ten times more planning put into it before release. ----------------------------------------------------- Schedule: 7-15 chapters per week Chapter Length 1,000-2,000 words Disclaimers: 1. The 'Earth' in this world is not as we know it to be. Applying common sense is pointless. 2. There are not any planned harems. 3. Increasing powers/strength in this novel will feel similar to cultivation, but this is not a cultivation novel. 4. These creatures aren't zombies as you know them and will not be called such by the characters, but that's all I will say here. -------------------------------------------- Themes: fantasy, science fiction, zombie-like mutated creatures, adventure, dark, horror, survival. -------------------------------------------- Inspiration: Resident Evil definitely inspired the world. Growing up, I played the Resident Evil games and watched the movies. All of The Walking Dead never entertained me because it was mostly drama and hardly any tension. 28 Days/Weeks later, Resident Evil, World War Z, Army of the Dead, Train to Busan, All of us are Dead, Z Nation, etc. are all cemented in my brain as thrilling pieces of zombie fiction. -------------------------------------------- Support the Author: Please use coins/stones/golden tickets, or review my novel!

Horizon Academy is an action and fantasy book set in a world where magic and superpowers exist. In a country full of mystery and secrets that pose a threat to civilization. It follows the story of a high school whose students (the protagonists of the story) and staff cross paths with a 'terrorist'/ villainous group known as The Order of Blight.

Dalton Wyatt, a world-renowned scientist and inventor, is transmigrated into the body of a high school student, also named Dalton Wyatt, who had tragically committed suicide due to unfortunate circumstances and a complicated life. The enchanting world of cards he finds himself in is vastly different from Earth, yet eerily similar in certain aspects. Unlike the peaceful Earth, where humans fought only amongst themselves, this new world is plagued by dungeons and monsters. Here, humanity's survival hinges on battling these mythical and legendary creatures. Ordinary mortals lack the strength to stand against such formidable foes. Thankfully, a select few are blessed with the ability to harness their souls, manifest soul power, and become card apprentices—humanity’s last hope against extinction. Card apprentices are individuals who form contracts with grimoires, mystical artifacts that allow them to wield powerful and versatile cards to fend off monsters and conquer dungeons. A grimoire provides card apprentices with abilities such as card creation and card fusion. Most importantly, it enables them to unlock their full potential in card battles. While this world shares the concept of science with Earth, its focus is not on electronics or industrialization. Instead, cards replace the need for most technologies, fulfilling even the smallest of daily necessities. This world revolves entirely around the grimoire’s abilities, particularly card creation and card fusion. Transmigrated to a place where strength can be bought with money, Dr. Wyatt is forced to earn a living to ensure his survival. Fortunately, with his otherworldly knowledge and expertise, card creation comes naturally to him, setting him apart from other card apprentices. Dr. Wyatt crafts and sells perfect, powerful, and resourceful cards, steadily growing stronger in this monster-ridden world. --- "What did you say? Making good cards is hard? Bah! Card creation is a breeze." "My friend, let me enlighten you—there are no 'trash card ingredients,' only incompetent card creationists."

In the glittering world of 19th-century high society, where marriage is a strategic affair and personal desires are secondary to duty, Eleanor Hawthorne stands at the precipice of her future. Beautiful, poised, and well-bred, she is the epitome of a noblewoman, bound by the expectations of her family and society to marry well. Her every step is carefully calculated, her every decision weighed against the demands of propriety. But beneath her composed exterior, Eleanor feels trapped by a life that values social standing over personal happiness. At a grand winter ball, as Eleanor dances with suitor after suitor, her world shifts when she shares an unexpected, electric waltz with Jonathan Ashford, a mysterious and charismatic man with a past that doesn't fit the mold of the elite around her. Jonathan, a man who has seen the world beyond the gilded cages of aristocracy, awakens something in Eleanor that she has long buried: a longing for freedom, passion, and the possibility of a life that is her own. As the ball unfolds, Eleanor is forced to confront the reality of her situation—her well-meaning but controlling Aunt Agatha, who pressures her to marry for social standing; the wealthy but emotionally distant Lord Hargrave, who sees her as a perfect match in name, if not in heart; and the expectations of a society that demands conformity. Yet, it is Jonathan’s presence—his quiet defiance of societal norms and his deep connection to Eleanor—that challenges her to reconsider the life that has been laid out for her. Torn between her duty to her family and the growing feelings for Jonathan, Eleanor embarks on a journey of self-discovery. She must navigate the treacherous waters of love, duty, and desire while deciding what kind of woman, and what kind of life, she truly wants. In The Winter Waltz, the dance of love is more than a step to be mastered—it is a risk, a choice, and a chance to break free from a world that demands perfection in exchange for happiness.

Paused due to lack of financial motivation. When the sleepy little city of Warren Ohio starts teetering on the edge of chaos, Zoe is chosen to be a hero. There’s just one problem: she’s chubby, lazy, and way more invested in leveling up her Horizon Panther than saving the world. Monsters? Pass. But when a nagging system won’t stop harassing her and a looming Shard starts messing with her snack time, Zoe is forced to deal with her so-called "destiny." Begrudgingly. As long as it doesn’t interfere with her next raid. Cover by MK_Wizard Find her on ko-fi mkwizard

The Apocalypse descended as the world turned into a game. And while everyone panicked, I couldn’t help but wonder if there was something wrong with my eyes. [Logging into the Game Master’s Account!] And my ‘oh-so-average’ destiny, changed into ‘is this a cheat life?’ Kind of destiny. [Would you like to Create a Skill? GM Points will be consumed!] While others struggled to kill a single goblin, I was searching for stronger monsters. While they were happy with getting even a random weak skill, I was customizing what kind of skills I needed. Even my Talents and Gifts can be customised. The only limit was my imagination. Heck, even the hidden quests that people would trigger randomly were present in front of me even before the scenario began.  It wasn’t fair by any means. But isn’t that how life is already? [Would you like to make changes to the quests in the next scenario? GM Points will be consumed!] Is this how an apocalypse is supposed to be? I don’t know. I just tried following the script in front of everyone while trying out my cheat in hindsight. Don't get me wrong with the ‘pig eating tiger’ kind of thing. I just don’t like attention. I would rather stay with two trusted friends than with 10 fake ones. [Would you like to Initiate a Custom quest for the Players? GM Points will be consumed!] And for the players who were bullying the ‘weak’ me. One may even wonder how they ended up losing half of their stats and skills in a randomly triggered impossible type of quest.  Fate can be truly scary, you know?  One must always be careful of it.

Amidst the ruins of a once-great city, the living are forced to confront the possibility that they are not alone in this desolate world, and that the Disease may be only the beginning of a descent into madness and terror.

What would you do if you were sent to a new world and you were not the Hero? Meet Laila, a girl who was brought to a new world as nothing more than an unwanted extra.

A crew of sailors set out on an expedition to explore uncharted territories, embarking on a voyage across the sea. After several days at sea, they exhausted their supplies of food and water, and their spirits began to falter. Just when hope seemed lost, an island emerged on the horizon, revealing a paradise filled with exotic fruits, luminous stones, and a pristine stream of water. Most remarkably, they encountered pale, white-haired inhabitants who appeared to be divine beings, the children of God. This island soon became known as the Garden of Eden.

One day, the player base woke up in the game. However, this was not the [Easy] difficulty that everyone was used to play with. It was the most brutal, lethal [Hardcore] difficulty mode. Everyone was back at level one, with their respective class and knowledge of the game. As if it weren't enough, death was permanent and the log out button was disabed. But... Was it really a bad thing? #Antihero
