The Server's Chronicle: A Fantasy Of Faith

Senior Server Felix stood at the front of the church, his voice steady and solemn as he greeted the congregation. “Our help is in the name of the Lord,” he intoned. “Who made Heaven and Earth,” the people responded in unison, their voices matching his reverent tone. “Today, we initiate new members into this divine and holy Order,” Felix continued. “Today, we welcome new brethren into the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.” At the back of the church, Louis sat on one of the few single chairs, his posture slightly slouched as his focus remained on a sheet of music in his hands. The title read, "Brightest and Best – Key of A-flat." 'Why didn’t Gramps give me an F or G? A-flat is so difficult, and I only have three days to finish it,' he grumbled silently, his brow furrowing in frustration. But he dared not voice his complaints. He could already imagine his grandfather assigning him even more difficult pieces—F-sharps and endless A-flats—as punishment. From the front of the church, a serene voice called out, “Harry! Step forward!” Louis glanced up, momentarily pulled from his inner musings. His eyes landed on a girl stepping forward from the pews. She had black hair neatly styled in a bun and striking green eyes that seemed to shine with warmth and composure. Dressed in a modest brown dress and black sandals, with a rosary resting gracefully around her neck, she exuded a calm, dignified presence. Her tanned skin and graceful demeanor only added to the aura of reverence surrounding her, befitting an Altar server. 'Sigh,' Louis thought as he brushed a hand through his white hair, his blue eyes softening with a mix of admiration and envy. 'I wonder what it’s like to be an Altar server. They all seem so pure and divine… and powerful.' Just as he returned his attention to his music, a calm, gentlemanly voice spoke beside him. “You could also be an Altar server, if you’re interested.” “Huh?” Louis blurted out, snapping his head to the side. But no one was there. “What in the name of Jesus is going on here?” he muttered, glancing nervously around. “At least you know my name,” the voice replied again, seemingly amused. “What?” Louis whispered, his heart beginning to race. "I'm certain you will be a good server," the voice said, calm yet enigmatic. Louis narrowed his eyes, still searching for its source. "Who are you?" "I have many personalities. I have many names," the voice replied with an air of mystery. "It’s your choice which one you accept." "You’re not making any sense," Louis muttered, growing more unsettled. "Blessed are those who have not seen but believed…" Before Louis could respond, his vision blurred, and the world around him seemed to melt away. He jolted awake, gasping for air. His hands clutched the crumpled sheet of music, its corners bent from his restless grip. His head teetered precariously over the edge of his bed, a faint ache in his neck reminding him of the awkward position he’d been in. "Holy Mother of Jesus!" he exclaimed as he lost his balance, tumbling off the bed in a heap of blankets and scattered papers.

Mandate Of Heaven [BL]

"I've seen enough, I'm done." Lie Zhanfeng muttered, watching with a mix of satisfaction and amusement as Xie Dongyi, the tragic villain of his favorite stallion novel, seized an ancient inheritance from the protagonist. The villain had finally fought back! But just as Lie Zhanfeng was about to read the next chapter, a bolt of lightning struck him dead. When Lie Zhanfeng opened his eyes, he found himself inside the very novel he had been reading, inhabiting the body of a lowly village thug- a cannon fodder destined to be killed by the protagonist. Worse, he had died before finishing the book and had no idea what happened after Xie Dongyi grabbed the inheritance. But like any reader, he assumed the villain met the same tragic fate as always. Determined to rewrite the story, Lie Zhanfeng made it his mission to protect Xie Dongyi and prevent his blackening. Shadowing the villain like an overzealous guardian, he fended off danger at every turn, believing he could change Xie Dongyi's tragic future. But there was one thing Lie Zhanfeng didn't know: Xie Dongyi's fate was far darker than he imagined. After awakening a sinister demon bloodline, Xie Dongyi became an unstoppable force. Hunted by the strongest powerhouses, he self-destructed in a final act of vengeance, dragging all his enemies to death with him. And when Xie Dongyi was reborn, he looked at Lie Zhanfeng-who had been protecting him-and said, "Don't ever betray me, or I'll drag this world to death with us." UPDATES: 1-2 chapters daily

Die Schicksalsbraut des Drachen

Hüte dich vor dem Verrat des Schicksals. -- Sterlings glühend rote Augen bohrten sich in Fayes entsetzten Blick. "Mein kleiner Schmetterling, verstehst du denn nicht?

Transmigration aus einer Zombie-Welt zur Frau des Mecha-Königs

Im Sun-Sternenreich gab es drei Worte, um Scarlet Su zu beschreiben: nutzlos, Abschaum und dumm. Doch eines Tages änderte sich Scarlet Su's Sternkonto von dem Benutzernamen "Die Braut des Mecha-Königs" zu "Der Mecha-König ist scheiße". Plötzlich fragten sich alle, was für ein neues, aufmerksamkeitsheischendes Spiel sie da spielte. Als eine junge Frau auf einer von Zombies verseuchten Erde stirbt, taucht sie in eine Tür ein, die in eine wunderbare neue Welt führen sollte, doch stattdessen erwacht sie auf einer interstellaren Welt im Körper von Scarlet Su, der ungewollten Ehefrau des Lieblingsgenerals und Mecha-Königs des Reiches. Sie wird sofort Mutter des Sohnes des Generals und Miteigentümerin eines unerschlossenen Müllplaneten. Glücklicherweise ist sie mit ihrem Lagerraum, Millionen von Vorräten und der Bereitschaft, hart zu arbeiten, ausgewandert. Leider wird sie dazu gebracht, in dieser interstellaren Welt als Sensenmann zu arbeiten. Jede Woche muss sie Seelen in die Unterwelt bringen, sonst riskiert sie, ihre neu gewonnene mentale Stärke zu verlieren und wieder die alte, schwache und nutzlose Scarlet zu werden. Sie wurde von Scarlet, der Nutzlosen, zu Scarlet, der Erstaunlichen, und plötzlich rief ihr Mann an, der sie verzweifelt bat, seine Liebe anzunehmen. Sie sagte: "Sprich zuerst mit deinem Sohn, er ist derjenige, der einen Vater sucht." Aber sein Sohn sagte: "Wenn du mein Vater sein willst, reihe dich dort drüben in die Reihe der Bewerber ein und trage deine Daten ein." Excerpt: "Der verlorene Ehemann kehrt also nach all der Zeit zurück, und ich dachte schon, du seist tot", sagte sie sarkastisch. "Hüte deine Zunge, Scarlet, ich bin immer noch dein Mann." Scarlet lachte und verschränkte die Arme: "Du bist dir also bewusst, dass du ein Ehemann bist, wie soll ich jetzt reagieren, da du dich entschieden hast, den Titel anzunehmen, den du vor ein paar Monaten so leicht ablegen wolltest. Soll ich in die Hände klatschen und mich dann ausziehen und dich anflehen, mich zu schänden?", rollte sie mit den Augen und spottete über ihn. Sie sah, wie ihr Mann langsam auf sie zuging, mit einem konzentrierten, wütenden Blick in seinen Augen, und sie fragte sich, ob sie ihn zu weit getrieben hatte. "Du hast es gewagt, mir Scheidungspapiere zu schicken, Scarlet, hast du deinen verdammten Verstand verloren?" 'Nein', dachte sie, 'im Gegenteil, du hast deinen verloren. Das Titelbild ist nicht von mir und kann auf Wunsch des Besitzers entfernt werden.

Betrayed by Blood, Claimed by the Alpha

“P-please let me go..” I stammered and before I knew it, I was word vomiting while crying. “—I won’t return. You won’t ever see me again. I know you don’t want me as a mate. You hate me, so please let me go.” I cried out. Cain’s jaw tightened with each word that left my lips “What gave you the idea that you have the power to choose what you want?” His voice was low, “You don’t get to decide what, how, and when you leave. Only I get to do that. You don’t get to leave me, you don’t get to run! You only leave when I want you to.” "I didn’t ask for this,” I whispered, trembling. “I didn’t ask to be your mate.” Cain stepped back, “Neither did I,” he muttered under his breath. “But the bond doesn’t give us a choice, does it?” ~~~~ As the only child of her late Alpha father, Avery Jae was meant to inherit her family’s legacy.

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..." Note: I don't own the cover. If the creator wants me to take down the cover or put credit, please notify me by replying to my review at the Review section.

Harry's a she

Set in an alternate wizarding world shaped by a matriarchal society, this story reimagines the familiar backdrop of Hogwarts and its surrounding conflicts. Power is inherited through the female line, and pureblood families fiercely guard their legacy amidst growing tensions with Muggleborns. The imbalance in the number of witches and wizards has made pureblood males valuable but objectified commodities, intensifying the social and political struggles within the magical world. At the heart of the story is Arcturus Regulus Black, the reincarnated son of Regulus Black. Carrying memories of a past life, Arcturus refuses to follow in the footsteps of Holly Potter, the female equivalent of the Boy Who Lived. Instead, his ambition is to break free from the constraints of his birthright, gaining power to rewrite his destiny in a society where he is marginalized by virtue of his gender. Arcturus is not alone in his reincarnation. Ronda Weasley, the female reincarnation of Ron, and Serena Prince, the female reincarnation of Severus Snape, navigate their own struggles as they reconcile their former lives with the constraints and expectations of this matriarchal world. The group faces questions of identity, legacy, and loyalty, balancing their memories of the past with the possibilities of the present. Their journey unfolds against a backdrop of political turmoil. Holly Potter, destined to fight Voldemort, plays the central role in a fight that echoes the original timeline but is subtly altered by the presence of the reincarnated souls. Simultaneously, the enigmatic Aurora Malfoy—Draco's older sister and another reincarnated soul—must contend with her family's legacy in this transformed world. Meanwhile, Hogwarts, led by Alba Dumbledore, becomes a battleground of ideologies. Dumbledore, though a figure of wisdom, unconsciously upholds the traditions of the matriarchy, while Gellert Grindelwald rises as a voice for men’s rights, creating an additional layer of conflict. The struggle between these ideologies mirrors the broader fight against Voldemort, adding complexity to the characters’ decisions. In a story that mixes politics, societal critique, and the power of memory, the young protagonists confront questions of whether to preserve the world they now inhabit or risk everything to reshape it. Their choices will define the fate of the wizarding world, testing the limits of friendship, power, and identity in a society where nothing is as it once was. Note, this story will NOT have R18 scenes at least for the first volume, if it then does, there will be a tag and you can pass. To summarize this world, it's a matriarchal version of the Harry Potter world while the muggle world remains the same. With all this shit, there are half a dozen reincarnated people of all age (mostly Hogwarts's students) who will make butterfly effects while trying to adapt to this world, including the MC. I decided to write this book as a study, I wanted to see what would happen if I decided to create parameters according to the book and then I would try adding variables to see the changes. The result is that the world is a matriarchy which thus led me to add parameters to explain the reason as to why it's a matriarchy and then to add seven reincarnated persons who will each add butterfly effects.

The Crown Prince Is A Girl: Coveting The Throne

Please, this book is a slow pace. And please, read the first five chapters before deciding either to drop it or not~~ ____ Every lady's wish was to look pretty, find the one who happened to be their soulmate, and live happily. But the reverse was the case for Prince Eldie Romanus Heart. Born a female and raised as a man, Eldie had only one wish: to live a normal life. But fate denied her that life, especially when her father decided to crown her as the crown prince of the Heart kingdom, unaware of Eldie's true gender. Her life as the crown prince of the Heart kingdom was short-lived when her stepbrother found out about her identity and betrayed her. Instead of sentencing her to death for deceiving the king and the kingdom, she was married off to a king said to be the ugliest man in the universe. She thought her life as a queen in an unknown land wasn't going to be harder than hiding her identity, but she was wrong! Hell awaits her in a kingdom filled with people conspiring against her husband and ruled by her husband's enemy in his place. *** “Do you know how hard it was for me to watch people rule my kingdom in my stead and everyone calling me the ugliest across the continent because I haven't shown my face for once?” King Cadmail asked coldly, hiding the pain that lingered inside his chest. “You can never understand the pain! Just act as some worthless girl sent as a piece exchange for a land!” His words hit Eldie's face like a slap. “You have everyone at your beck and call and a family who supports you... But I don't. I am a traitor who deceived her kingdom for twenty years,” she muttered, the pain of betrayal overwhelming her. She fought many battles her father couldn't and brought back victories, yet everyone didn't hesitate to turn their back on her, including her father! “Supporting family? People at my beck and call?” He sneered. “Do you even know what it was like having a heart disease? Do you know the pain of being useless? If you think you know, give me your heart and take everything!”

The Kingmaker System

"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.
