What would happen if you put 150 students together in a school-like system and had them compete in various challenges to earn points to try and become number one? The outcome has been pretty bland for the past few years at Astral Academy, and the results are not what the higher-ups who run it want, until now. New students have enrolled and will change everything. New faces with clashing personalities will compete against each other to get the reward that first place offers. Five different classes with thirty different students in each class. Who will come out on top? Malakai, who came from London to compete in this academy? Maria, the daughter of a famous actress? Alexander, who has got everything he has ever wanted? Ryan, who can get anything he wants? Isabella, who has never had to try for anything she's done. Dillon, who wants everything everyone else has? Adam, who wants to prove a point? Too many names but only one top spot. Will they be entertaining? I post chapters every Wednesday and Saturday.

"People are all born liars and are mostly used to lying, even to themselves, believing in their supposed honesty. If someone who has never lied truly existed, that very existence would be a lie. For humans, lying becomes a strategic tactic of survival in the game called 'life.' We fail to realize that at birth, that our freedom is none, we are slaves to intuition and fate itself, playing a game where, in the end, we inevitably lose no matter what." -Andrew Philosophy __________________________________ The cover Illustration by... : u/shijmei (Reddit) @ka_w0ruu (Tik Tok) Other Genre : -Psychological -Philosophical -Thriller / Suspense -Crime

Ethan chuckled darkly, his gaze mocking my pitiful state. "I knew you would take his side. You're just like him, aren't you?" "No, Ethan, I promise…" I stammered, but the words felt weak even to me. "Your father is a monster," he spat, his voice low and filled with venom. "And I swore to make him pay for the lives he's destroyed." *** Isabella Grey’s life was a picture perfect dream—until it became a nightmare. In one shattering moment, her father is arrested for alleged crimes, and the man she trusted most, her husband Ethan Grey, reveals himself as the mastermind behind it all. The man who swore to love her never did; she was nothing but a pawn in his ruthless plan for revenge.

Will Isabella rise from the ashes of her shattered world? And will Ethan’s quest for redemption come too late, or will it uncover a love neither of them saw coming?

Due to the rain, the electricity of the City was cut off. "Who might be this late," Said the man, in the '40s. He was the only earner of this family, supporting his wife and their only daughter. His name was 'Reez Mosce'. "What happened dear, w-who would knock this late," Said his wife 'Riza'. Taking the shotgun in his hand, he gestured toward his wife and said, "Take Ellie through the basement". 'WHAT ABOUT YOU!!!' She wanted to ask him. But seeing his grave expression, she couldn't help. She could only look at him with concern filling her eyes. Reez replied as his gaze somewhat softened toward his wife, "Go away Riza hide in the basement with Emily" 'The Unknown' randomly happened every day. The murder reports that news announced to them, the people wanted it all to be false, they wanted to continue with their peaceful life. *** The sound of thud was getting erratic on the door. The door hinges broke off from the wall. Reez held the shotgun aiming toward the door. His condition was not so good, his legs were trembling as he gulped a mouthful of saliva. He was scared shitless, but he couldn't show it to his family. He was the moral support for them. *Crash* The door crashed showing a figure as it stood in the rain. The raindrops splattered across the front wetting the sofa and the tables. Ellie watched as the fire raged through the house.

My family is full of A-Holes! Ridiculously powerful A-Holes who have views of the world so twisted that they could literally burn all of the known world to the ground. I am the strongest of them all, yet... I'm tired of it all. That’s why I left. Being stuck with those same people for years got really bland. I needed a breath of fresh air, away from the Narcissism, Hedonism, Sadism, Masochism, and general Gotham asylum vibes that each one of them exuded like some kind of messed up perfume. Six deranged family members hanging on your back all the time gets really annoying after a while. Especially when you are just as insane as they are. Unfortunately, after five long years of bliss, I am being pulled back in. Family Drama to the rescue. A threat that can't be punched away for very long has arrived at our doorstep and I'm forced to return to help solve it.

Someone appears, silent as a shadow. They understand every thought, every wound, every quiet dream you’ve hidden away. Who are they? They look at you with your own memories in their eyes, wearing a life that feels like yours—and yet it’s not. They claim to be you. Would you trust them? Would you let them in, knowing they might reveal the parts of yourself you’ve buried the deepest? And if they are indeed a part of you… are you forced to accept them? Do you want to? Their presence stirs something you can’t define—a connection that feels fated, an understanding that runs deeper than you can explain. They slip through the fabric of your life, binding themselves into your existence, as if they’ve always been there, waiting to step forward. Yet behind that familiarity lies a tension, a question that lingers: What if they’re here to reflect not only the best parts of you but also everything you fear to see? Are they here to free you from your own shadows… or to pull you into theirs? Currently Improving Chapters, If some dont make sense, well it will soon. Quality over Quantity (finished polishing!

"This is your new reality. Find me, defeat me, and you will be free."" These were the final words of Kaito Nakamura, the mastermind behind Eternal Nexus, a VRMMORPG that turned into a deadly nightmare. On the day of its release in 2030, over 50,000 players were trapped inside when Nakamura uploaded his consciousness into the game and cut off any possibility of logging out. The ultimate twist? Death in the game meant death in real life. Any attempt to unplug the player from the VIZion system would instantly kill them. Five years have passed since that horrific day. Only 10,000 players remain. With the world desperate for a solution, the world governments launched Project: GRIM REAPER—an elite operation to send ten of the most skilled individuals from around the globe into Eternal Nexus. Their mission: locate Nakamura’s in-game avatar, defeat him, and bring an end to this death trap once and for all. My name is Rei Kurogane, and I was chosen to be one of the ten. I’m not a professional gamer, unlike the others. I’m a Kenjutsuka—a practitioner of the ancient art of swordsmanship. My brother and sister are among the thousands still trapped in the game. I have no choice but to enter this virtual hell, not as a player, but as a warrior determined to save them. Nakamura started this game. I will end it—with my own hands.

I can't... It's going to kill us all... We have nowhere to run.

You could call me crazy. You could call me a freak. But I would do anything if it was for us. No matter who got in the way. No matter who hurt you. I would do anything to protect you. Because at the end of the day you are always a fighter. Because if you can’t fight for your love then Your love isn’t worth fighting for. Did I want to kill them? No. Did I need to kill them? Yes. Because they were going to hurt you, hurt us. And I couldn’t stand us getting hurt. So I did what I needed to do. You could call me crazy. You could call me a freak. But I would do anything if it was for us.
