Souta's world is shattered when a mysterious, otherworldly nightmare traps him in a never-ending sleep. Waking up in a hospital bed, he initially believes it was just a bad dream. But reality quickly distorts as he finds himself trapped in a haunting, soundless version of the world he once knew—a world where the rules of time and space no longer apply. As Souta wanders the empty halls of the hospital, he comes face-to-face with an entity that feeds on the silence, a terrifying, unseen creature that hunts him with no sound, no warning—only an overwhelming presence that grows stronger with every moment. In this place, the absence of noise is a weapon far more deadly than any physical assault, and Souta is helpless against it. The creature’s pursuit takes on a chilling quality, as if it’s not just hunting him in the dream, but hunting his very soul. But Souta’s nightmare is far from ordinary. As he struggles to survive in this soundless prison, he begins to encounter strange figures—two mysterious men who appear to be studying him and other comatose patients, yet their true motives remain unclear. They are experts in this strange condition, but they may have their own hidden agenda. Souta soon realizes that his coma may be a much deeper and more dangerous state than anyone could have predicted. As he continues to slip between the waking world and the nightmare realm, Souta discovers that his journey is intertwined with something far more sinister. The line between dreams and reality begins to blur, and his survival depends on unlocking the truth behind the forces that are manipulating him. Who—or what—is behind this nightmare? What is the true significance of the door that calls to him, offering a possible escape or an even worse fate? Guided by cryptic warnings and pursued by nightmarish creatures, Souta must find a way to escape the cycle of fear, uncertainty, and isolation. But the more he uncovers, the more he realizes that the nightmare is not something that can be simply escaped. It is a hunt—one that has only just begun. In Somnia: The Endless Hunt, dreams are not just a place to escape—they are a battlefield. A war between light and shadow, sanity and madness, where nothing is ever as it seems and no one can be trusted. Souta must confront not just the monsters of his mind, but the truth about his own existence.

Cyber Dream: The Blade of Capital In a futuristic metropolis, technology has transcended human imagination. Modified metallic prostheses, intelligent AI companions, brain-embedded neural networks, and sprawling virtual spaces create a world that feels almost magical. Diseases like cancer, once feared, are now trivial thanks to nano-medical robots. Yet beneath these marvels lurks a new threat—a creeping form of cyber-psychosis that erodes minds and souls. Our story follows Kestrel , a former corporate elite turned dissident. With a prosthetic body shimmering in neon light, he roams the city’s dangerous fringes. On a rain-soaked night atop a high-rise, as he surveys a dazzling yet distorted skyline, he asks, “What is capitalism?” This question is both a critique of old social orders and a call to awaken those numbed by high-tech splendor. Soon, Kestrel embarks on a perilous journey into cyberspace with his advanced AI companion, Victoria. In this digital labyrinth, data streams hide secrets; memories can be stolen and identities rewritten, blurring the line between reality and illusion. Together, they uncover a staggering conspiracy: colossal corporations covertly implant neural networks into people’s minds, manipulating thoughts and establishing total control over society. The narrative begins with the chapter “Awakening,” where vivid imagery of neon-lit streets and rain intermingled with laser beams sets a mesmerizing scene. Kestrel’s inner monologue reveals deep discontent with a world that is outwardly vibrant yet internally decaying. He recalls a simpler time while questioning if the human spirit can endure under the dehumanizing grip of technology. Is the cost of progress the loss of our very selves? As events unfold, Kestrel becomes entangled with an underground network orchestrated by corporate elites. This hidden collective arms rebels and exposes the grim truth at humanity’s core. Each cyber intrusion and virtual clash plunges him deeper into isolation and fear, even as Victoria begins to show signs of independent consciousness. Her struggle to blend logic with emerging emotions adds complexity to their mission. Cyber Dream: The Blade of Capital is more than a high-octane cyberpunk adventure filled with chases and confrontations; it is a profound exploration of freedom, power, and the nature of reality. As Kestrel’s rebellion and Victoria’s quest for self-awareness ignite a movement, the novel challenges us to question what it means to be truly free in a world where technology is both a tool for progress and a weapon of control. A thrilling journey awaits.

The resets are fracturing, the familiar patterns warping, and Azeron is no longer alone in his torment. He discovers he’s not the first to endure this nightmare. Others have tried to break free, their failures echoing through the fractured timelines. But Azeron is different. His memory, a curse and a key, is unraveling the very fabric of the cycle.

"Why is this happening? Why?" A few melting figures glared at the impending doom of darkness above. A colossal shadow cast its veil over the Green Star, declaring an impending cataclysm.

WSA 2025 Entry What is a man, if not a vessel of hidden truths and whispered deceptions? Beneath the fragile facade lies a labyrinth of secrets—truths buried so deeply they intertwine with the lies we tell ourselves just to survive another day. The masks we wear may fool the world, but they cannot hide the fractures within. Even those we hold closest, the ones we entrust with our hearts, may be the very hands carving unseen wounds into our souls, feeding them to the monsters lurking in the shadows. He was never meant to uncover it. But when fragments of forgotten identities surface and unseen forces move in the shadows, Aramith is thrust into a web of deception, blood, and a history long buried. Worse still, within him stirs an attribute unlike any other—the strongest, yet the most chaotic. A power that bends to no master, a force that threatens to consume him whole. To wield it is to risk destruction; to reject it is to remain powerless. And yet, power alone does not reveal the truth, for blood tells no lies, flowing only when life is claimed, but even its crimson clarity is no guide to the truth. How does one find what is real when their very existence is a fractured mirror, splintered into shards that reflect only distorted glimpses of an identity lost? Each shard offers the promise of clarity, yet together, they form nothing but ruin. To uncover the truth is to face the darkness, and to risk losing what little remains of the self. For in the end, can a man truly hold a reflection if he no longer knows who—or what—he truly is?

Japan – National News Broadcast The polished news anchor sat upright, her gaze sharp as she adjusted the stack of papers before her. The newsroom behind her hummed with quiet urgency, the weight of the moment settling over the broadcast. "Authorities are baffled by a sudden and unexplained surge in sleep-related deaths across Japan," she began, her voice steady yet tense. "More and more citizens are passing away in their sleep without any prior health concerns. Experts are working tirelessly to determine the cause, but no clear explanation has emerged. Authorities urge the public to remain vigilant and report any unusual symptoms before bedtime." A graphic appeared, displaying the spike in fatalities over the past month. Behind her, unsettling photographs flickered across the screen—blurred images of individuals found in their beds, their faces frozen in expressions of terror. The anchor’s tone shifted. "Health officials recommend citizens avoid excessive fatigue and maintain healthy sleep habits. More updates will follow as investigations continue." --- United States – Paranormal Podcast In a dimly lit podcast studio, the host leaned forward, his eyes wide with curiosity. Across from him, a rugged man in a worn flannel shirt, gripping a faded photograph in one hand and a beer can in the other, leaned back in his chair. "So, you're telling me you saw this creature firsthand?" the host asked, clearly intrigued. The man scoffed, shaking his head. "Damn right, I did. Ugly thing had wings bigger than my body—slow but sneaky. Thought it could steal my pigs again, but I was ready this time—camera in one hand, shotgun in the other." He slammed the table for emphasis, then shoved the blurry image toward the host. The photograph depicted a small, red-skinned humanoid figure with large, bat-like wings, its eyes glowing faintly in the darkness. "Spit, the thing didn’t know what hit it when I fired!" the man chuckled, his voice full of excitement. The host held up the picture to the live chat. "Alright, what do you think? Mothman? Demon? Or is our friend here just seeing things?" The chat exploded with theories—some skeptical, others eager for the investigation to continue. --- China – Liangyuan Street Market Surveillance footage from a bustling night market in China captured a chilling scene. A woman in a red qipao walked gracefully through the crowd, her figure striking in the soft glow of lanterns. Suddenly, she paused. Her body flickered—like a glitch in a video—before vanishing completely, as though she had never existed. The footage zoomed in, replaying in slow motion. In the final frame before she disappeared, her face distorted unnaturally, her eyes hollow and empty. The screen cut abruptly to black.

To the quiet despairs, the forgotten corners, the shadows that whisper secrets in the dead of night. To the nameless anxieties that burrow deep within the human heart, gnawing at the edges of sanity. This book is dedicated to the muted background hum of existence, the slow, insidious erosion of hope, and the persistent vibration of unease that resonates in the spaces between the stars. To the forgotten gods, the careless creators, and the indifferent universe that watches our struggles with cold, cosmic detachment. This is for the crumbling alleyways, the faded murals, and the abandoned buildings that echo with the silent stories of forgotten lives, lives as fleeting and fragile as the whispers carried on the wind. To those who wander the desolate landscapes of their own minds, grappling with existential questions that yield no easy answers. To those who find solace in the bleak pronouncements of nihilism and absurdism, who embrace the brutal honesty of the darkness, and who find a strange kind of peace in the face of utter meaninglessness. This book is for you. For those who carry the weight of unspoken burdens, the invisible wounds of loneliness, the ghosts of past disappointments that linger like shadows in the periphery of vision. For those who seek a connection, a purpose, a reason to rise each morning despite the gnawing emptiness that threatens to consume them. This is also a dedication to the unsettling silence of empty streets, the flickering streetlights that cast long, distorted shadows, the dissonant sounds that emanate from the unseen corners of reality. It's for the creeping sensation of being watched, of an unseen presence lurking just beyond the reach of perception. For those who feel the subtle distortions in the fabric of reality, the subtle anomalies that hint at something far stranger, far more terrifying, than the mundane reality they inhabit. To the city itself, a cold, uncaring beast, yet also a testament to human ambition and resilience, a canvas on which our hopes and dreams are painted, only to be washed away by the relentless tide of time. To the ordinary lives lived amidst the extraordinary, to the single grains of sand lost in the vast, unforgiving machine of existence. This is for the cosmic horror that seeps into the cracks of our everyday world, and the subtle echoes of the Genesis Event that resonate in the quietest moments. And finally, to the uncaring vastness of the cosmos, to the indifferent gods who created a universe both beautiful and terrifying, this is for the ultimate struggle between order and chaos, between light and darkness, and the journey of a single, insignificant man caught in the middle of it all..

[Puppet of the Gods / Kamigami no Kugutsu] Since the dawn of existence, two opposing forces have governed the world: Linear Fate and Boundless Fate. Linear Fate ensures absolute order, where every event is predetermined and unchangeable, while Boundless Fate embodies limitless possibilities, allowing free will to shape destiny. The Archons, self-proclaimed gods of the world, feared the chaos of free will and sought to eradicate it, forging an alliance with Linear Fate to suppress Boundless Fate and trap mortals in an unbreakable cycle of predestination. From the remnants of Boundless Fate and the last flickers of human defiance, Nazo was born. Unlike any mortal, he was untouched by Linear Fate’s and the Archon’s control, an anomaly with the potential to restore the shattered balance. However, the Archons recognized the danger he posed before he could ever realize his power. Knowing they can’t erase him yet and the fact that Boundless Fate was severely weaken, they’re able and did twisted him into their greatest puppet. From infancy, they manipulated his very existence, embedding within him a false purpose. He was raised as their enforcer, taught to believe that resisting fate was futile, that free will was an illusion, and that Linear Fate was the ultimate truth. His emotions were suppressed, his memories distorted, and his mind shackled in an unending cycle of obedience. Whenever a sliver of doubt arose, the Archons manipulated reality around him, ensuring that every attempt at defiance resulted in despair and failure. Yet, despite their efforts, the tiniest echoes of Boundless Fate still lingered within him. It was barely perceptible, but enough to spark questions. Enough for cracks to form in the Archons’ perfect world. Enough to make him wonder—could linear fate truly be change?

Humanities technology advanced exponentially throughout the years. The only thing that they hadn't focused on for a while was space. The endless abyss that they call space was still unknown to them. Once they colonized their solar system, they thought it wasn't enough. They sent a search party out of their solar system but soon lost contact. Not long after, Earth lost contact with all of the other planets. Then a huge earthquake shook the earth itself and then portals opened up around the world. Soon monsters came out ravaging and flattening cities. Only a brave group of humans entered the portals which they then found multiple discoveries on the other side. They found stones that gave them different abilities and monsters a different world with a boss that lets them exit the portal, which was soon called dungeons. Those 6 friends were then later on called the 6 Primordial Braves. With the news of this, countries all over the world sent in people to retrieve stones, and then they would crush them, granting them abilities. They would then go back in to retrieve more and hand them out to the public. 500 years passed... This isn't the story of a hero. It's the story of a weak girl who was ridiculed and bullied every day because of her low status. And due to her cowardly nature, she was unable to fight back, making more people pick on her. While she was laying in an alleyway, with bruises and cuts all over her body, she saw a green, semi-see-through panel that appeared in front of her. It was like a notification you would see in the VR games from 400 years back. The green panel had a black text that said...

Also, at the beginning of the novel, there is an act of short and sweet revenge that lingers just a bit longer through the story, but this novel is not revenge-based. The Yuri aspect won't be as heavily used compared to my first novel. The girlfriend is mainly used to help the MC get through the mental box and distorted feelings that the MC has to suffer through at the beginning of the novel.

"That’s insane." "Then prove me wrong." Nick’s voice was steady, filled with something far beyond conviction—certainty. He spoke of other worlds, of hidden doorways between reality and the unknown. Of a method that could take them beyond the limits of human perception. Water wanted to laugh. To dismiss it as another delusion. But something in Nick’s eyes made him hesitate. And so, against all reason, he followed the instructions. Lie down. Close his eyes. Let the darkness take hold. Then, he imagined it—the Golden Dawn. A colossal gate standing in the void, radiating warmth both comforting and unfathomable. The glowing key in his hand pulsed like a heartbeat. Beside him, Nick stood unwavering, as if he had done this before. The moment the gate opened, everything changed. A wave of impossible sensation crashed over him, sinking into every cell of his being. The laws of reality shattered. They fell—not through space, but through something deeper. An endless abyss where time itself twisted and burned. A brilliant blue aura erupted around them, a force so powerful it felt alive. And then, from the darkness, they came—beings beyond comprehension, their eyes seething with murderous intent. They pursued, their presence distorting existence itself. But ahead, it awaited. The world beyond the gate. Light. Sound. A shift in reality itself. And then— He opened his eyes.

In a dystopian America where prisons are overflowing, the government introduces the Death Race, a brutal, high-speed battle where inmates must race to survive—or die trying. The reward? Freedom for the winner. The cost? A bloody, merciless road littered with wrecked cars and bodies. Enter Jaxon "Driver 88" Cross, a former special ops soldier framed for a crime he didn’t commit. Betrayed by those he trusted, sentenced to Blackridge Penitentiary—a supermax prison housing over a million criminals—Jaxon is thrown into the arena of death. With nothing to lose and a burning desire for vengeance, he must outdrive and outgun ruthless killers, corrupt officials, and his own demons to earn his way out. But in a world where the system is rigged and the race is never fair, survival is not just about speed—it’s about knowing when to strike, who to trust, and how to kill. The engines roar. The countdown begins. The road to freedom is paved with blood. Welcome to the Death Race.
