The Bears Up There Cataclysm

What if your survival depended not on brute strength, but on blueprints?" [Initiating Black gear protocol…] [Neural handshake at one hundred percent..] [Bonding…complete. ] “Oh yeah,it's about to go down!" ………… You’ve heard of cultivation systems, harem systems, and all those fantastical systemy stuff. But here’s a twist: an Engineering System. No ancient bloodlines, no secret martial arts, no old grandpa giving pointers—just wrenches, metal, and enough ingenuity to rewrite the rules of survival. Meet Ryan Renfield,your typical college student whose life takes a drastic turn after awakening the Black gear system when Doomsday arrives. But in an unruly world where power is everything, brains often fall short of brawns. That’s fine though as Ryan isn’t here to play fair anyway—he’s here to invent, outwit, and dismantle all his opponents... while looking damn cool at it. However,it's just not about looking cool as he must come to terms with the truth of his origins and it's relation to a universe level threat. So what are you waiting for? Strap in for a wild ride where innovation trumps magic, technology crushes tradition, and one man’s genius becomes humanity’s last ray of hope. P.S:There's going to be a lot of face slapping (Hehehe, Author's evil laugh)

In The Shadows' Burden: The one Who Bears All, the story follows Umbra, an enigmatic and immensely powerful god known for his boundless love and unshakable will. As the strongest among the gods, Umbra stands apart, choosing not to wield his power for harm, which earns him the deep love and loyalty of the people. This adoration, combined with the unwavering support of the Shadows—his devoted followers—fuels the envy and resentment of other gods who feel threatened by his unbreakable will. Unable to tarnish Umbra's character directly, these jealous gods conspire to alter time itself, manipulating both past and future events to rewrite the truth of who Umbra truly is. They influence the very narration of his story, casting doubt on what is real and what is fabricated. As part of their scheme, they force Umbra into a relentless cycle of reincarnation, subjecting him to endless forms of suffering before each rebirth. Each life brings its own torment, compelling him to bear the weight of existence in all its forms. As we travel through Umbra's lives with him, we will encounter an array of overpowered characters, each with their own unique abilities and motivations. The veil of deception slowly lifts, revealing hidden truths and a complex past shaped by betrayal, love, and resilience. Ultimately, The Shadows' Burden becomes a powerful exploration of faith, truth, and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery amid a universe determined to hide it.

Betrayed by her own family, who had her incarcerated for a crime committed by her older sister, Lauren wanted to end her life when they also went ahead and disowned her after her release from prison.

For years, Lauren lay in wait as she worked as a bar hostess and planned her simple but well-elaborated revenge against her parents' "golden child."

She needs to RUN! So what happens when this said husband too has no intention of letting her get away with this scot-free and intends to find his "fake" wife and make sure that she pays for her deception? What happens then when she realises that the man that she has been searching for is none other than the very husband that she has been running away from? Will she go and claim him back, or will she continue to let her sister be with him?

It was this very law that Alastor found himself entangled with. Awakening in a forest on planet Earth, in a forgotten corner of the universe, Alastor possessed no memories of his life before the age of four. Growing up, he quickly learned the brutal truth of this society: power was the currency of respect and longevity. Alastor clung to the hope of unraveling the mystery of his past. But his hopes were seemingly crushed when his bloodline ability manifested as [Speed]. It was an ability widely considered weak due to its inherent limitations, doing little to enhance his standing in this power-obsessed world.

The pendant he wore, a constant presence he vaguely remembered from his earliest memories, suddenly flared to life. It was his only tangible connection to his past.

Content: [Matured] “Brother Abubakar.” Soliat’s hardened nipple brought a moan to her lips. “You’re too conscious, it’s driving me insane.” He brushed a thumb to her lips. “Let me ask you a question, what I did at the party, did you like it?” Her heart hitched and she did not know her nipple would harden more than it already had, except it did. “Answer me.” Slowly he trailed a hand from her face down to her neck, then her cleavage to in between her breasts, pushing the towel downward. “I—we—it was in a public place, I—I don’t know.” He eyes left his finger and the assault it was committing to look at her face. “Would you know if I did it again?” He did not wait for her to reply and dragged off her towel, kissing her to the bed. “Brother Abubakar,” she moaned. “It’s Abubakar now.” He broke the kiss to say. He peppered light kisses on her cheek and trailed it to the sweet spot on her neck. “I will touch you, Solia, but I won’t go all the way, is that okay with you?” He covered her breasts with his hand and her reply came in soft moans. “Ahh!” She whimpered when his finger pinched her nipple and a pleasure pain swept through her. “There’s a thin line between pain and pleasure, darling, and if you let me, I’ll show you.” Then he replaced his torturing hand with his mouth. “Abubakar.” She arched her chest so that his warm mouth would completely cover her aching bud. “That’s more like it, moan for me some more.” He gave her hardened bud a torturously slow lick while his hand manifested on the other peach. His hand travelled down her body, twirling on her skin and caressing her waist. “Do you like this, Solia?” “Yes, Brother—“ He bit her nipple. “Shall we try that again, do you like this, Solia?” “Yes, Abubakar.” Super hot, right? why not check out the book!

The world of wyverns has always had a very strict social pyramid, and for centuries Alex Conrad's family has been at the top in England. They even founded a school so they could keep their children away from humans and wyverns deemed to be less worthy. But ever since Alex was a kid, the pyramid has been slowly crumbling, and now for the first time, their doors will be open to wyverns from all social backgrounds. Plenty of upper-class families are less than thrilled with the Conrads' decision, and almost all of the new students harbour hostility toward the ones who have looked down on them for so long. Especially Alex's new flatmate, a boy named Matthew Montoya, who is determined to prove a point by making Alex's life as miserable as he can manage. Things take a turn when the tension on campus claims a student's life and the two have to decide if they're going to let the tragedy bring them together or rip them further apart.

Young or old, poor or rich, there's always a place people are rushing to. This is the only way I can discern who is alive and who is not. The dead never rushes. Spirits are never late for anything. Nakijima Iori has always been a bit special, or more abnormal. He has always been able to see ghosts...not the friendly ones. Spending most of his life in a temple in Osaka, he decided to move to Tokyo to pursue a degree in Management and to leave his past behind. Little did he know a small accident on the bus would lead him into the arms of Huang Yushi, the lead detective for the Tokyo Special Unit and another person who can see ghosts. Huang Yushi, known as Hound Chief, has been the lead detective in the Tokyo Special Unit for the last 6 years. His team deals with "special" cases that many would believe as abnormal or unreal. Little did he know in his next mission a cute little spitfire would fall into his arm and turn his structured world upside down. Solving cases together, and learning about each other's past, they both need to learn how to accept each other's differences. Who knows, as time passes, there could be more than friendship between these two.
