Guild Navigator Dune

“Delete my game account and have a mansion on the outskirts of the city?” Am I being treated as an abandoned dog? How laughable! Former Vice Guild Leader of a Super Guild in the game Divine World, Xu Feng, was ultimately discarded. Despite pouring his heart and soul into the Reaver Guild, Xu Feng found himself no better than a discarded stray. Luckily, fate had other plans for him. Upon falling asleep at night, Xu Feng miraculously found himself to be reincarnated. “You people will soon regret your choices,” Xu Feng fixed the position of his glasses and ensured they would pay the price. --------- Discord: https://discord.gg/7hXBJ7Rkdb

Embers of Mythralis In a world where ancient gates connect realms beyond imagination, Earth has become the hub of a vast multiversal network — a place where elves walk in neon cities, dragons are the stuff of memory, and dungeons bloom like living scars across reality. But the most dangerous secret isn’t hidden in a dungeon. It’s sleeping under one family’s roof. Kaela and Kai look like ordinary twins — beautiful, gifted, and a little… strange. Raised in the city of Lysium by their legendary aunt, they’ve grown up navigating high-tech life and high-fantasy rules. They train with relics. Attend guild trials. Study systems. Avoid dungeon breaks. What they don’t know is the truth of their blood. Their mother was a white dragon from the forbidden realm of Mythralis. Their father — a fallen god, chained beyond the stars. Now, forces from across the Realms are beginning to move. The deities want the twins dead. The dragons want them punished. And the dungeons? They’ve begun whispering their names. Caught between destiny and desire, the twins must confront their inheritance — and survive long enough to uncover why every gate in the multiverse fears them. A war that shattered the Realms once. They may be the spark that ignites it again.

In a shattered world once governed by flawless systems and divine-class AIs, Kael is born broken. No class. No stats. No Soulcode. In a world where strength is defined by the system embedded in your very essence, Kael is a Null—a glitch, an error, a discard. He was meant to be deleted. But something went wrong.

> [ Hello, amazing readers! We wanted to give you a quick heads-up about the story you're currently enjoying, "THE THERAPIST: I Accidentally Became a Guild Therapist". This is the original version of Livia's journey, and as you might have noticed, it's designed to be a bit more in-depth.

But don't worry, Livia's original adventure will absolutely continue! We're committed to bringing you every single chapter of this unique story. However, if you're looking for a version of "The Therapist" that's perhaps a bit more "Webnovel Friendly" – with a faster, easier-to-follow plot and a pacing that's tailored for a more dynamic reading experience – you might want to check out the rebooted version! It's titled "BUFFER WAIFU: Awakening Beyond the Code" and is available in my story list.

Thank you for your incredible support, whether you're with us for the deep dives of the original or the fast-paced thrill of the reboot! ] > *I Accidentally Became A Guild Therapists* Welcome to Aethelgard — where emotions glitch harder than any dragons. Livia was just your average psychology student—until she got hit by a motorcycle, fell into a coma… and woke up inside an MMORPG. Not as a hero. Not as a mage. Not even as a legendary assassin. No. She respawned as an NPC Mental Supporter Lv.1 — a useless class with zero attack skills and zero respect from literally anyone. She thought her new life was doomed. Until the strongest (and most mentally unstable) guild in the game, Bloodbath & Beyond, “kidnapped” her... …and made her their official guild therapist. Monsters fear them. The developers can’t delete them. And only Livia stands between them and complete emotional implosion.

In the year 600, after the Great Reset shattered Earth into ruins and city-states, humanity clings to survival under the Explorers Guild, a powerful organization tasked with reclaiming lost relics and battling monstrous creatures. Caelen, a 15-year-old orphan labeled “Gemless” for his weak mana, dreams only of surviving the Guild’s brutal entrance exam. But when a ruin’s collapse awakens the Nephalem system—a forbidden power fused with the AI spirit of his ancestor Zorak—Caelen becomes something more: half-angel, half-demon, marked by Vanta black and Lotus pink energies that could make him the Guild’s greatest asset or its deadliest target.Guided by Zorak’s cryptic warnings, Caelen hides his dual nature at the Guild Academy, where magical prodigies like the fire-wielding Kael mock his “weakness,” and the celestial devotee Lysa senses his secret. In the virtual Battle Royale RuinRush, Caelen dons the guise of Astral Kin—a white-haired warrior with mismatched red and pink eyes—unleashing his powers without fear of exposure. But as he trains his Ascended skills, the darker Fallen energy stirs, whispering rage that threatens to consume him.With corrupt teachers like Master Torv and elite Guild Rankers hunting for the ruin’s “forbidden energy,” Caelen must navigate bullies, forge alliances, and master his Nephalem abilities to survive. As the first-year mission looms, secrets unravel about the Great Reset, Elysium’s fall, and Zorak’s ancient sacrifice. But the real danger lies within: as tragedy and betrayal fuel Caelen’s anger, the Fallen side of his bloodline grows stronger, threatening to unravel everything he’s fought to protect. In a world where power is both salvation and damnation, can Caelen balance his dual nature—or will he become the monster the Guild fears? -------------------------------------------------- It's inspired by a few different Series. thank you and I hope it's enjoyable for you despite its flaws. I'm using this as a hobby so no promises of consistent uploads or a set release schedule. and I do apologize but I'm open to criticism just don't be a complete jerk about it. currently AI is being used to format text, flesh out content such as dialog or connecting plot points together. I'm feeding it my ideas for arcs,character bios and descriptions, power ideas, world building ideas, and short stories I make or summaries of arcs/characters etc... and then taking what it gives me as a Draft. if I can't find problems with it and it's true to what I wanted I upload it here, this is a rather long process as I'm not paying for any particular AI and I'm learning how to write full stories or arcs outside of just plot ideas. so I'm learning with it. hopefully it doesn't take long but if there is continuity problems or grammatical errors, or inconsistencies please let me know I will do what I can to fix it. just can't promise a time frame on it. I thank you for your time and patience and I hope this no matter how rocky it starts, it turns into something pretty neat. even if I have to release another book and scrap this version due to so many rewrites or fixing. depending how deep it goes. Thank you everyone and I'm looking forward to where this will be in time.

Andrew, a young student, was patiently waiting for the bus home after school. The lonely street and the impending rain that had started out of nowhere, along with a novel he used to read in his free time, distracted Andrew from the long wait for his bus. However, little did Andrew know that the sudden appearance of a very tall, old man would completely change his life. Traveling to a world that, until a few seconds ago, Andrew, or now known as Finn, believed to be fiction, Finn will have to survive in this new world filled with monsters, tragedies, corruption, and depravity. Will Finn be able to stand tall with his ideals and morals and live a peaceful life as an adventurer, or will he fall to the pleasures and corruption of this world and become another of its great tragedies? -- This story will have some POVs and thoughts from the characters. There will be a lot of explicit content, from gore to suggestive themes, also the character won't be strong in 2 or 3 chapters, he will grow stronger as long as the story progress. And finally, there may also be a lot of background story or lore (I don't know what you call it) about certain characters, places, and even eras.

Telmaris. A nation where strong hunter's guilds set their quarters due to its livelihood and abundance of dungeons.

In the Empire of Vaelgard, the path to the throne isn’t won by blood alone but by brilliance, battle, and the King Project. Through the halls of King’s Academy, elite guilds compete for the right to ascend as royal successors. Every student is ranked by the system’s divine seal, determined by the Aspect Talents they awaken: Valor for Knights, Dominion for Kings, Clarity for Queens... and Insight—a low-tier Aspect most suited for Pawns. Lucian Greyveil was a Pawn. A commoner. A no-name. But he was also the mastermind behind Guild Aetherion, the top-ranking guild of the Kings project. He crafted their strategies. Predicted enemy moves. Covered weaknesses. He never sought the crown—he only wanted a place to belong. That was his first... and last mistake. When Aetherion rose to the rank of eligible royal successors, the nobles no longer needed a founding member that was lowborn pawn. Lucian was discarded without fanfare—replaced by a noble-born with a higher-ranked Aspect. He didn’t rage. He didn’t beg. He simply bowed... and left with a promise: "I will return. And will claim that throne... And your heads." Vanishing into obscurity, Lucian began assembling a new guild—one made not of prodigies, but rejects. Not of royals, but rogues. He trained them, pushed them. Now, a new guild emerges from the shadows. The Black Sigil. And as the final stage of the King Project approaches, the nobility will learn: perhaps a pawn could be the strongest piece on the board when played right.

Everyone said Kael Ardyn was weak. No class. No guild. No family. A useless background character in a world ruled by Rift Hunters—people who gain powers from rifts that tear open the sky and unleash monsters. Until the day he died. Betrayed. Crushed. Forgotten.

This time, he’s not just trying to survive. He’s going to rewrite fate itself.

Vivienne has spent more time as her avatar than in her own skin. In the wildly popular VRMMO The Seven Cataclysms, she reigned supreme as Vivisari, a demon-mage of apocalyptic power.

The world had long known about the portal machines, powerful devices capable of tearing open gateways to unknown realms. But they were far too dangerous, unpredictable, unstable. No one dared use them—until the meteorite came. Its explosion sent a wave of energy across the planet, awakening abilities in certain individuals. Fire, water, earth—elements now bent to human will. Suddenly, the portals weren’t just dangerous—they were opportunities. Guilds rose to power, controlling the machines, sending adventurers into the portals to retrieve crystal cores from creatures that had existed beyond human reach. These cores, ranked from F to SSS, became the key to strength, wealth, and influence. Leon was just a D-rank adventurer, skilled but unremarkable, always choosing solo missions over working in teams. He kept his distance from guild politics—until the master of Titan’s Fang took his own life, leaving the guild without a leader. Against all odds, Leon was chosen to inherit the position. But power breeds resentment. Just as he was about to take full control, his own guild turned on him. He never saw the final blow coming. Then, he woke up. Sixteen again. Before the betrayal. Before the leadership. Before the mistakes. This time, things would be different. And this time, he had a system—one that would make him stronger, faster, and ready to claim what was stolen from him.

In a world where MegaFauna crawl through interdimensional Gates and Cities run on ancient steam engines, chaos and (not so great) comedy collide in Past Life Hunter-a wild, genre-bending epic where nothing is sacred, everything is extra, and EVERY trope gets ‘lovingly’ mentioned. Enter Delphina de Velasques, knight elite, Ducal Lady, full-time Hunter, and of course, the Otome Villainess. Accompanied by a chaotic party, including a mysterious man who emerged safely from one of the Gates. Delphina will battle immense monstrosities, navigate dysfunctional Guild (and Noble) politics, and endure side-quests to survive the system’s BS and maybe, save the world in the process. Equal parts parody and homage, Past Life Hunter is a love letter to webnovel readers who want action, magic, and just the right amount of emotional damage (and murder). Warning: Contains strong female leads, weak men who learn, heavy & potentially triggering topics (tagged at the start of every chapter). Read responsibly.

In a world ravaged by the Outer Gods, humanity clings to existence. Among the dwindling guilds of Transcendent Awakened, Kael stands as a Rank 1, only an Awakened, his every attempt to climb up the ranks met with frustrating stagnation. He is a burden, a gear-carrier, an object of constant scorn and casual cruelty from his more powerful guild-mates, a bitter irony for one who simply seeks to survive. As the current, catastrophic conflict against an Outer God’s avatar pushes humanity to the brink of utter annihilation, they face an impossible choice—to send someone back in time to retrieve it. No one among the powerful volunteers for this suicide mission, thus, Kael, seen as the most expendable, is chosen. Bewildered and overcome with rage and bitterness, Kael takes advantage of the chance to change his destiny. He makes a commitment to break free from the bonds of his past, create a new identity, and overcome his limitations. Amid the chaos of the early apocalypse, Kael finds a secret power that changes everything.

Chapter 0 – Ashes of a Daughter Place: The Ruined Palace Date: Late winter, Year 768 The palace burned. What once stood tall in white stone and gold banners now crumbled in smoke and ruin. Screams had long faded. Blood dried too fast in the winter wind. The flag of Eltharion lay trampled in the mud, and beneath it all, Vireya stood alone. Her armor was cracked. Her blade, gone. She had killed and bled and shielded—and still, they lost. And yet she stood. On shattered marble steps, her father—the king—watched the last member of his kingdom flicker in the girl before him. He had not fled. He had not begged. But he had not answered her warnings, either. “Do you see it now?” Vireya whispered. Her voice was hoarse from ash and war. “He used us. Everything I said… everything you ignored—” Silence. He didn’t argue. He never had to. He was the king. She was the weapon. She took one step closer. Blood leaked from the cut at her ribs. The world spun. “I’ve fought every battle for you. Spilled every drop they asked.” Her voice softened. “And I came back each time hoping—just hoping—you’d see me.” Still nothing. The wind picked up, bitter and sharp. Her fingers trembled as they reached for her chest plate. She couldn’t breathe. She wasn’t sure she wanted to anymore. “If I were born again,” she said, eyes dull, “would you ever… love me?” He met her gaze, just once. But no answer came. No apology. No denial. Only the quiet shame of a man who realized too late what he had broken. Vireya’s lips trembled with a hollow smile. “That’s what I thought.” Her sword slipped from her hand. “I hope I’m never your daughter again.” And then—her knees gave out. The world tilted. Darkness swelled around the corners of her vision. But just before the fall, she felt arms catch her. Solid, trembling. Too late. She closed her eyes. Place: The Garden of Eltharion Date: Early spring, Year 756 The air was too still. Leaves rustled overhead, casting dappled shadows across her face. The scent of pine and soft earth clung to her skin—but beneath it, the sharp sting of memory. Vireya’s eyes opened slowly. The sky above was too blue. The silence is too clean. No fire. No blood. Her throat ached—dry, parched, and burning like she’d swallowed smoke. She coughed weakly, and her hand flew to her side— But there was no wound. Only the phantom pain of where a blade had once pierced her. The memory of steel sang louder than the wind. She pushed herself upright, limbs trembling. Her body was smaller. Softer. Younger. “No...” The word caught in her throat. Her voice was barely a whisper. The last thing she remembered was dying—falling in her father’s arms after giving up the hope of being loved. And now… this? Footsteps. She flinched instinctively, body coiled for defense. But it was only a girl—barefoot, with soft steps and a plain brown dress. Her maid. Lune. Mute. Loyal. Eyes like dusk, always watching but never judging. Without a word, Lune knelt beside her and gently offered a glass of water. Vireya stared at it for a long moment. In her old life, Lune had been the only one who never asked anything of her. Never spoke behind her back. Never looked away from her. Her fingers shook as she took the cup. The water touched her lips. Cold. Real. “Thank you,” she rasped. Her voice cracked. “You're still here.” Lune only bowed her head, then reached out to brush a leaf from Vireya’s tangled hair. A quiet gesture. Familiar. And just like that, tears pricked behind Vireya’s eyes—but didn’t fall. She drank. Slowly. The water didn't ease the ache in her chest.
