Nora Clark Step Up

Derek Carter never asked for a System, an apocalypse, or the pressure of being humanity’s so-called "last hope." He was just trying to survive the daily struggles of being an orphan in Paleview City—dodging bullies, scraping together meals, and lying his way into school. Life was already hard enough. Then, one day, a blue screen pops into his vision: [Warning: The world is doomed. Try not to die.] Yeah, great. Just what he needed—cryptic doomsday messages and no instruction manual. Now, monsters are creeping into the city, reality is unraveling, and Damien’s "legendary" starting stats are barely above zero. The System promises him power, but there's just one tiny problem—he’s never won a fight in his life. Armed with sarcasm, questionable decision-making skills, and the sheer refusal to die, Damien is about to embark on the worst (and possibly last) adventure of his life. Because if the world really is ending… he’s at least going to make it someone else’s problem first. After all, heroes are overrated—survivors get to tell the story.

Welcome to The Last Step – A Tale of Fate, Power, and the Unforgiven. In a world where magic defines one's worth, three souls walk a path toward an uncertain destiny—each bearing a power that can shape the fate of nations. Lucas, the God’s Chosen Sorcerer, wields divine magic that bends reality itself, blessed by forces beyond mortal comprehension. A shining beacon of hope—or a harbinger of destruction—his path is riddled with expectations he never asked for. Celia, the Queen of Curses, commands a power feared by even the strongest mages. She carries the weight of a past filled with whispers and condemnation, but where others see a curse, she sees the strength to carve her own future. Kaiser, the Unwanted Void, stands apart. Neither blessed nor cursed, he is the anomaly that should not exist. In a world that measures worth by magic, he is a shadow in the light—yet, the abyss within him holds something far greater than mere sorcery. Together, they are bound by fate yet divided by their own battles. As war brews and forgotten gods stir, the lines between hero and villain blur. In the end, their choices will decide more than just their own lives—they will determine the very foundation of their world. This is their journey. This is their Last Step.

Haruto Takeda, a twelve-year-old prodigy with a passion for football management, has spent years honing his skills in the virtual world of “Global Football Manager 2050”. Born into a wealthy family, Haruto has always had the resources to pursue his dreams, but he yearns for something more than just playing games. When a bold idea strikes him—to create a real football team from scratch—he sets out on an ambitious journey to turn his virtual expertise into reality. Leaving behind the comforts of his luxurious home, Haruto ventures into the nearby village of Hanamura, where he discovers a group of passionate but disorganized players.

With his sharp mind, strategic thinking, and unwavering determination, he begins to transform the ragtag group into a cohesive team. But the road to success is far from smooth. Haruto faces challenges at every turn—doubt from the players, opposition from rival teams, and the pressure to prove himself as a young leader. Along the way, he learns valuable lessons about teamwork, perseverance, and the true meaning of leadership. As Haruto and his team grew stronger, they set their sights on competing in local tournaments, aiming to make a name for themselves in the world of football.

Through Haruto’s eyes, readers will experience the thrill of chasing a dream, the struggles of overcoming obstacles, and the joy of achieving the impossible. This heartwarming and action-packed story will resonate with anyone who has ever dared to dream big and fight for what they believe in.

Call it petty or perhaps foolish, if you will, but to Lauren, his small revenge became the last saving straw in his drowning life. Lauren became suicidal after finding out that his parents were both alive but had discarded him as a baby right after his birth just for being born different and yet raised his twin sister with so much love and affection. So as a coping mechanism, he made it his life mission to teach them a small lesson by denying his sister, Laura, the joy of being with the only man that she has ever loved as a little token of payment for this unfairness. For years, Lauren lay in wait as he worked as a bar host and planned his simple but well-elaborated revenge against his parents' "golden child." But finding out that he was pregnant with another man's baby not so long after the wedding was never part of his plans. So Lauren knew then that it was time to draw the curtains closed before his "husband" found out that he had been duped. He needs to RUN! So what happens when this said husband too has no intention of letting him get away with this scot-free and intends to find his "fake" wife and make sure that he pays for his deception? What happens then when he realises that the man that he has been searching for is none other than the very husband that he has been running away from? Will he go and claim him back, or will he let his sister be with him, rather? And what if, while Lauren thought that everything that was happening was as a result of his own game plan, he was rather just a pawn in someone else's chess? *** Note: This author would not give warnings for any scene in the book.

The room was quiet, except for the faint sound of the ceiling fan whirring above us. Liya's phone screen dimmed, casting the room into near darkness. Sana had already fallen asleep, her soft breathing rhythmic and steady. I turned onto my side, hugging my blanket closer. The excitement of the night still lingered in my chest, but so did something else, a strange unease.

The way he and his friends treated us, guiding us around the party, buying us dinner, it didn't seem like the actions of someone untrustworthy.

I was just eating during break time when I accidentally choked on my drink and died. When I woke up, I found myself lying in a spacious bed inside a big, fancy room. That’s when I realized I had most likely been reincarnated—just like in the fantasy novels I used to read. At first, I thought I had been reborn as the heroine or maybe the villainess. But no—I had reincarnated as the villain from the most recent novel I read: the Duke of the North. I examined my body, and to my shock, it turned out that the duke was actually a girl?!

*Note: I am not the author, merely a humble translator. Crab OG author : 喝一杯红酒 OG title : 游戏制作：从治愈玩家开始 Chen Xu travelled to a parallel world and was surprised to find that many classic and excellent games from his previous life were missing. I had a plan, but why did I get an 'emotion collection system', and the emotions such as happiness, sadness, excitement, fear, anger and other emotions provided by players who have played the games I made can make me stronger? But why is it so much easier to get anger than happiness? Looking at his score, Chen Xu expressed his confusion. As a result, Chen Xu's career as a game designer gradually took a turn for the worse. In Undertale, countless players pounded the table and screamed: I was cheated by this game! In Outlast, countless players screamed, my cabinet moved and I stopped playing. In Dark Souls, when countless players entered the game smiling, "Go away, please go away, leave the Firekeeper behind and go out with your flame, we don't want to link the fire! Soap, Alex and Ghost were sacrificed in Call of Duty; Zack and Aerith were killed in Final Fantasy 7; Arthur and John were betrayed in Red Dead Redemption; Countless players went berserk: "You bastards! Can't we be kinder to the protagonists? Q: How do you feel about the players' anger towards you? Facing the reporter's question, Chen Xu smiled slightly: This isn’t criticism, this is encouragement from players around the world to me, this is love! Thank you all, I will keep up the good work!

After his father's remarriage, Asamura Yuuta ends up getting a new stepsister, coincidentally the number one beauty of the school year, Ayase Saki. Having learned important values when it comes to man-woman relationships through the previous ones of their parents, they promise each other not to be too close, not to be too opposing, and to merely keep a vague and comfortable distance.

Standing on fairly equal ground, these two slowly learn the comfortable sensation of living together. Their relationship slowly evolves from being strangers the more the days pass.
