The Xenomorph Within

Chung Woo, a brilliant but socially detached individual obsessed with fictional worlds, meets an untimely end. Reincarnated by a capricious deity into the brutal Alien vs. Predator universe, he's granted three wishes and a System to aid his survival. Choosing power, knowledge, and a way to satiate his thirst for entertainment, Chung is reborn as a Xenomorph. However, this isn't just any Xenomorph. Chung retains his human intellect, his cold, calculating nature, and his vast knowledge gleaned from countless hours immersed in fiction. This unique perspective allows him to see the Xenomorph hive not as a mindless swarm, but as a potential empire ripe for conquest. He utilizes his System, a powerful interface providing him with status updates, resource management tools, mission objectives, and even a shop to acquire mutations and upgrades, to manipulate and control the hive. He quickly rises through the ranks, his strategic brilliance and ruthless efficiency making him a force to be reckoned with. He discards the Xenomorph's primal instincts, replacing them with cold logic and calculated ambition. As Chung expands his influence, he begins to reshape the hive, evolving it into a highly organized, technologically advanced killing machine. He leverages his knowledge of human technology and tactics, adapting them to the Xenomorph physiology, creating horrifying new breeds of warriors and bio-weapons. He uses the System's map function to locate resources, strategically plan attacks, and expand his territory. He hunts Predators not just for sustenance, but for their technology, incorporating their weapons and armor into his growing army. The story follows Chung's relentless pursuit of dominance, his transformation of the Xenomorphs into a galactic superpower, and his brutal clashes with Predators, humans, and other alien species. It explores the ethical implications of his actions, the blurring lines between man and monster, and the chilling efficiency of a mind honed by fiction now unleashed upon a brutal reality. Will he become the ultimate apex predator, or will the universe find a way to tame the beast within?

Mommy Villainess

[Mommy Villainess (The Lady with the Crab Mallet)] *** [Original book cover. Artwork by Artist Michiro for WN Author sola_cola.] *** In Tilly's past life, she was a villainess who neglected her husband and son for power. Then, the "real woman of the prophecy" came and took them away from her. When she failed to seize the throne for herself, she was executed for all the crimes she committed. Then, came her rebirth. She wants to meet her son again so she vowed to be a good person this time. Good enough to seduce Captain Kiho--- her husband in her past life. But soon, she realized that flirting with the captain is the least of her worry. After all, she discovered that her "evilness" in the past was caused by the true villain--- someone who wanted her dead to steal the special power that she didn't know she possessed. Power that has something to do with the Four Ancient Beasts of the Moonchester Empire: The Red Phoenix, the Blue Dragon, the Golden Tiger, and The Black Serpent. Apparently, she's the Beast Priestess... ... and her lineage isn't supposed to exist anymore. Because of her blood, there are people who want her gone. So now, aside from having a happy life with Kiho and their son, she has a new goal: to burn down the b*tches who want to ruin her family again. *** [EXCERPT] *** [‘Why am I so horny tonight?’] Tilly thought to herself while sucking the crab leg suggestively. And then, she noticed that Captain Kiho gulped while staring at her mouth. [‘Ah, I’m not the only who’s hot and bothered here.’] She didn’t know if it was the alcohol in her system or her desperation to have a child… … but she suddenly felt like flirting with him. They were bound to get married and have a child together anyway. “Captain,” said Tilly as soon as she pulled the crab leg out of her mouth. “I can clearly see that we’re both attracted to each other. Shall we spend the night together?” Kiho remained pokerfaced but she saw panic cross his now glowing yellowish eyes. Ah, the captain was flustered. “My lady, you seem to be really drunk.” She walked towards him and when he didn’t move an inch, she stood in front of him and looked up at him with a grin. “Captain, are you the type of man who will only sleep with his betrothed?” “That seems to be the case, my lady.” He said that as if he was forcing the words out of his mouth. Plus, she could see in his eyes that he was conflicted– that it was hard for him to reject her. [‘Aw, I didn’t know that I have this kind of effect on my ex-husband.’] Or perhaps she just didn’t pay attention in the past. “Captain, I have a solution to your problem,” said Tilly in a playful voice. Then, she stood on her toes and whispered in Kiho’s ear. “Let’s get married.”
