Why Does The Author Call Mist Melancholy

Joining WSA 2025. #WSA2025 (Tw: contents will focus on the dark genre, exploring disturbing topics) Every author loves their story. Sure, you may get tired of writing it after quite a while, but even so; it was a novel you enjoyed writing before, no? The words you put consideration to, the effort you did research overnight. The thrill to have a reader, the thought of someone enjoyed your work. All of it was something you used to cherish, but you may end up forgetting the joy over small things one day as you move on. Everyone loves their work. But some forget they did.

Being the author of the breakout novel, Gates of The Primordials, Jarren Fletcher did not care about the constant critiques claiming he had a habit of treating extra characters as mere plot devices, creating and then dumping them once they’d served their purpose. To Jarren, it didn’t matter. Extras were just that—extras. All that mattered was the main character. But Jarren never expected to wake up in his own story, reincarnated as one of the meaningless, disposable extra characters, Deremiah Morcant—a coward who took his own life to escape the perilous challenges of the Gate Trials. Now, Jarren has to face those deadly challenges himself in the body of a weak, insignificant extra. He must find a way to survive in the rules of the dangerous world he had created, whilst also trying to save it. But time is running out. The next Wave is coming, and so are the paragons.

To his horror, the knowledge he possessed came with a gruesome price of being the sole fixation of The Author.

Born amidst the violence of his homeland, Calum is taken into the heart of the elven forest, where his new life begins under the watchful eyes of his adoptive father, Thalior. As an outsider in a world that views his kind with suspicion, Calum struggles to fit in with the elves, whose instinctive mastery over magic and archery leaves him feeling inadequate.

However, amidst this tension, Calum forms a bond with Lyra, a playful and fearless elf who seems to see past his human origins. As the two grow closer.

I was a normal novelist, who got really popular after creating my first novel "Fever War" and went to Comiket to not only meet my fans, but also sell my own merchs. Only for me to make a stupid bet with one of my fans and was sent into my own novel. Now I have to survive this everchanging landscape, fight against other human competitors and the invaders while closely follow the lead of the MC of the story. Make changes to my decision due to my appearance and the butterfly effect I have caused and try to find a way back, and get back against the one who sent me to this place.

One day, I woke up to the world enwrapped by a mysterious mist and there seemed to be a murderous creature that lurks in it. I opened my phone to find no signal other than an app showing 99+ messages... I opened the app to find that I had been added to a group chat called 'Building 1' which everyone in my apartment seemed to be in. Everyone was panicking in the group chat. Then suddenly gets muted, a user with the name 'user101' sends a message. User101: 'The game has started and I hope you all live till the end. This game will continue for 3 days. This is a time of challenge for the human body, mind and nature. You can do anything for the next three days however you must follow these rules:- 1. Do not go into the mist. Don't let curiosity kill the cat. 2. Every 2 hours, one random person will vanish if no one completes their tasks. Be quick, or it could be you. 3. Food will be delivered to your door by a server dressed in black. Do not trust servers dressed in white. 4. Close all blinds and windows after 6 P.M. or the creature will hunt you down. 5. There will be a safe hour at 12 P.M. where you can move around the whole building but must be back before 1 P.M. 6. Do not go into the corridor at any time. 7. I am not trustworthy. Let the survival begin.'

Upon awakening, Dev finds himself inhabiting the body of Conrad Valor in a world far different from his own. His mysterious reincarnation takes an even stranger turn when he encounters a young woman who addresses him as "Lord" – though he has no memory of such a title. As Dev navigates this new reality, he uncovers dark secrets and horrifying truths that lie beneath its surface. Each revelation brings him closer to understanding his role in a fate that could reshape reality itself. Expectations: - Slow Burn story - A protagonist's compelling growth from vulnerability to strength - A vast, intricately crafted world with deep lore - An innovative power system that encourages reader speculation - Romance - Secretive organizations with hidden in shadows - A blend of mystery and horror elements - Powerful emotional moments I started writing this because I wanted to create a world and a power system that captures the awe of the supernatural in a way that transcends human comprehension. Much like how, in our own universe, we may never uncover all its mysteries, I wanted to tell a story that inspires countless theories—none of which offer a definitive answer to the truth. That idea grew and evolved into The Eye Behind Mist. If you decide to join me on this journey, thank you! I’m having a lot of fun creating this, and I hope you’ll enjoy it just as much. ***Warning: This is a work of fiction intended for mature audiences.

Kail, a 23-year-old customer support agent, found himself in an unexpected predicament – he was somehow transported into the world of his beloved RPG game, "Stopping Ragnarok." To his astonishment, he wasn't alone in this bizarre adventure. Eight other players, supposedly the chosen ones destined to rescue the world within the game, joined him on this quest. Their mission? To thwart the sinister forces threatening to eradicate humanity in Terra Mercuria. It all sounded quite epic, at least in theory. However, as they delved into their adventure, reality quickly dispelled any grandiose expectations. The warrior turned out to be rather, well, twinkish, not exactly the imposing figure Kail had imagined. The mage had an odd fascination with dark magic, which was more intriguing than practical. The healer, a girl, had an unexpected twist – she possessed an anatomical surprise that defied convention. The Rogue, meant to be stealthy and ruthless, was far too polite and kind-hearted to fit the bill. The Ranger, whose title suggested environmental awareness, displayed a conspicuous disregard for nature's well-being. The Paladin, expected to be virtuous and noble, seemed more interested in flirting than righteousness. The Necromancer, a master of the undead, harbored a comical fear of his own creations. And then there was the Hero, the one designated to lead this motley crew. To Kail's surprise, the Hero vehemently rejected his role and instead clung to Kail, the Bard, as if he were a lifeline in this absurd world. So, while their mission to save Terra Mercuria remained a noble pursuit in theory, the reality of their adventure was shaping up to be quite the comedic spectacle.

　　Baek Yeon-ryung, male. 　　He was once involved in an extremely brutal murder case, and the victim was his only relative, his older brother, Bai Yanren. Ten years ago, the case had stirred up the entire Yecheng, not only because of the horrific state of Bai Yanren's death, but also because the person most suspected of committing the crime was only one of his own brother, Bai Yanliang. 　　The autopsy report found that Bai Yanren had been killed for a whole day, which meant that the young Bai Yanliang had been alone with the corpse for a day and a night. 　　No one knew what he had done or what he was thinking. 　　There was no sadness, no crying, no fear, and his face was expressionless. 　　His boyish face seemed to be wearing a lifelike mask, making it impossible to see the slightest emotion.

（Don't pay too much attention to the introduction. This is not an anti-intellectual or routine article. I will try my best to update at least one article every day, and usually maintain two updates a day.） A meteor streaked across the night sky from the depths of space, hurtling toward Earth. No explosion. No destruction. The next day, humanity awakened to supernatural abilities! Some could control fire, some could command storms, and some even woke up to find they could fly… Of course, some also awakened to more "unique" powers—like flipping tables with a single slap (yes, that’s you, Fatty). "Hmm… So your ability is… being as hard as iron?" "Yeah, I can’t die, but I also can’t hit back!" "Congratulations, you’ve successfully awakened into a living jade statue!" — Good news: I have an insanely powerful defense. Blades can’t cut me, bullets can’t pierce me, even lightning strikes do nothing—basically, I’m a walking shield. — Bad news: My attack power is literally zero. I’m basically an indestructible punching bag. And my best friend, Lin Yi? His ability is even more ridiculous. "Wait, you’re telling me you can travel briefly into the future?" "Yes! I just went forty years ahead… and the entire world was destroyed!" "…What?" "Oh, and by the way, you became the world’s strongest superhuman… AND YOU GOT NUKED TO DEATH!!!" "WHAT?!" From that moment on, my life completely spiraled out of control— I just wanted to be a normal guy, but… "Great God! Please guide us to the future!" "Hold up! I’m just a ridiculously hard-to-kill nobody!" "Western Corporate Federation: This man must be captured! He is the ultimate war weapon!" "Wait, you guys got the wrong person!!!" "Extraterrestrial Civilization: This being might be a divine entity! We must welcome him!" "A GOD?! No, no, no! Just let me go home!!!" I just wanted to live a quiet life… WHY IS EVERYONE KNEELING AND CALLING ME A GOD?!!!
