Synopsis of "Chronicles of Hearts and Horizon" The story begins in a world where magic intertwines with the tangible, and ancient ruins hold the forgotten secrets of past civilizations. "Chronicles of Hearts and Horizon" follows the journey of two unlikely companions—Elara, a skilled treasure hunter, and Alden, a brooding warrior—whose paths cross in a mysterious, enchanted forest, setting them on a dangerous quest to unearth a powerful artifact, the Heartstone, hidden within the ruins of an ancient civilization. Elara is no stranger to danger. Her reputation as a fearless treasure hunter precedes her, known across the lands for her ability to navigate perilous terrains and decipher ancient languages. She is driven by a singular obsession: to find the Heartstone, an artifact said to possess the power to alter the course of history. The artifact, shrouded in mystery, is said to be capable of granting its wielder unimaginable power, but at the cost of one’s soul. The Heartstone is believed to be locked away deep within the ruins of the Temple of Eternity, a place that few have dared to enter, let alone survive. Alden, on the other hand, is a soldier of fortune with a tragic past. Once a knight, he is now a wandering warrior, scarred by the loss of his family during a great war that ravaged his homeland. Haunted by his past and driven by guilt, Alden has grown cold and detached from the world, living only for the present day, seeking solace in his sword and the quiet of the wilderness. His fate intertwines with Elara’s when they both arrive at the outskirts of the Cursed Forest, a dangerous and enchanted place rumored to be the final resting ground of many treasure hunters who perished in search of the Heartstone. The two meet under unlikely circumstances when Elara, scouting the forest for clues, finds herself trapped by a treacherous pitfall. Alden, drawn by her desperate cries for help, rescues her, and though reluctant to share her quest, Elara finds herself needing Alden’s strength and combat skills to navigate the increasingly hostile forest. What begins as a temporary alliance for survival slowly blooms into a deep and complex partnership. As they travel deeper into the forest, their relationship evolves from a purely practical one to a romantic and emotional connection. However, their journey is far from simple. The Cursed Forest is alive, a sentient place that seems to have its own will, shifting paths and conjuring illusions to mislead and trap travelers. Along their way, they encounter strange creatures—both mythical and terrifying—and are faced with riddles and challenges designed to test their resolve. The forest, it seems, has its own secrets and a dark history tied to the Heartstone. As Elara and Alden journey through the temple, the challenges grow more intense, testing not only their physical endurance but also their emotional resilience. The temple’s illusions begin to prey on their deepest fears and regrets, challenging the bond they have formed. The deeper they go into the temple, the more they realize that the Heartstone isn’t just a powerful artifact—it is a sentient being that feeds off of the desires and fears of those who seek it. Elara, still haunted by her parents' mysterious disappearance, is confronted with visions of them—alive but lost to her in a world where the Heartstone’s power can bend time and reality. For a moment, she is tempted to seize the Heartstone to bring her parents back, but she is reminded of the cost: the stone's power would enslave her, slowly draining her essence until she becomes a mere shadow of the person she once was. The forest’s enchantment seems to push her toward this temptation, but her growing connection with Alden acts as a tether, preventing her from falling into the stone's seductive grasp. Alden faces an equally tormenting vision—one where he returns to the battlefield, but this time he does not abandon his family.

In a kingdom characterized by political intrigue and betrayal, a young man named Roy finds himself at the epicenter of a deadly conspiracy. After enduring numerous assassination attempts, he is once again targeted by a group of elite assassins. Severely wounded (and on the brink of death), Roy narrowly escapes with a fatal injury, his blood staining the ground as his body collapses. As life drains from him, he begins to lose consciousness, accepting that this may be the end. However, fate has different plans. Just when he believes all hope is lost, a mysterious force intervenes, saving him from death’s grip. Although severely weakened, Roy embarks on a new chapter of his life, forced to confront the complexities of survival in a world where nothing is ever truly what it seems. This experience reshapes his understanding of loyalty and trust, because surviving is just the beginning of a far more intricate journey. As he heals, Roy confronts the harsh realities of his predicament. With adversaries lurking at every corner and secrets (that) envelop his past, he is thrust into a game characterized by politics, power and betrayal. Although he has endured painful experiences related to love and loss, he finds himself entangled with Princess Rina, who is determined to make him fall in love with her—(even if) it means sacrificing everything. However, for Roy, love is nothing more than a curse: a destructive force that has already inflicted enough pain upon him. Amidst the escalating tension and political turmoil, Roy must navigate a perilous world, constantly battling for survival while grappling with his own indifference to the emotions that others seem to desperately cling to. As he becomes increasingly intertwined in the treacherous game surrounding him, Roy must decide whether to embrace his past and the relationships that accompany it, or to remain an isolated figure, detached from the world he once knew. This tale of survival, love and betrayal reveals Roy's journey as one of resilience, self-discovery and the harsh realities of a kingdom dominated by manipulation and deceit.

Dalton Wyatt, a world-renowned scientist and inventor, is transmigrated into the body of a high school student, also named Dalton Wyatt, who had tragically committed suicide due to unfortunate circumstances and a complicated life. The enchanting world of cards he finds himself in is vastly different from Earth, yet eerily similar in certain aspects. Unlike the peaceful Earth, where humans fought only amongst themselves, this new world is plagued by dungeons and monsters. Here, humanity's survival hinges on battling these mythical and legendary creatures. Ordinary mortals lack the strength to stand against such formidable foes. Thankfully, a select few are blessed with the ability to harness their souls, manifest soul power, and become card apprentices—humanity’s last hope against extinction. Card apprentices are individuals who form contracts with grimoires, mystical artifacts that allow them to wield powerful and versatile cards to fend off monsters and conquer dungeons. A grimoire provides card apprentices with abilities such as card creation and card fusion. Most importantly, it enables them to unlock their full potential in card battles. While this world shares the concept of science with Earth, its focus is not on electronics or industrialization. Instead, cards replace the need for most technologies, fulfilling even the smallest of daily necessities. This world revolves entirely around the grimoire’s abilities, particularly card creation and card fusion. Transmigrated to a place where strength can be bought with money, Dr. Wyatt is forced to earn a living to ensure his survival. Fortunately, with his otherworldly knowledge and expertise, card creation comes naturally to him, setting him apart from other card apprentices. Dr. Wyatt crafts and sells perfect, powerful, and resourceful cards, steadily growing stronger in this monster-ridden world. --- "What did you say? Making good cards is hard? Bah! Card creation is a breeze." "My friend, let me enlighten you—there are no 'trash card ingredients,' only incompetent card creationists."

But rather than succumb to despair, Michael discovered that the orb had unlocked a mysterious Bloodline system within him. This newfound power surged through his veins, awakening something deep inside. Fueled by determination, he vowed to harness this strength and become the strongest warrior, just like the protagonists in his beloved manga. With each passing day, Michael trained harder, learning to wield his abilities and navigate the treacherous world around him.

The infamous Sword of Slaughter was going to be reborn as a human. The sword spirit could hardly contain his excitement. His goals were clear. He would drink the finest wines, savor various delicious foods, sleep with beautiful women, and live life to the fullest. He would grow stronger, surpassing his current limits, and tear apart the fake firmament that trapped myriads of worlds. "They had dared to block the path to immortality... I will slash them all down." "They say I poisoned my own brother... In a way, they’re not wrong." In the martial world of Danxia, Seth Fenix was cursed with Withering Yin Syndrome, a rare disease that drained his strength and halted his cultivation. Mocked as the "Withered Demon," his ugly appearance and rumored betrayal of his brother made him a hated outcast. Seth paid no mind to the scorn of others, and only focused on himself. Then, everything changed when an incident awakened the Divine Yin Lotus Seed within him. It gave him hope—a cure for his illness and the power to rise again. But Seth soon learned that unlocking its full potential required one thing… The sacrifice of celestial blood. "Dual cultivation is actually the cure to my illness?" In the martial world of Danxia, qi flowed through everything. Unfortunately, Seth Fenix was born with Withering Qi Syndrome, a disease that drained qi from his body and made surviving past the age of nine nearly impossible. Miraculously, he managed to live for nineteen years, tirelessly searching for a cure with the help of his eccentric alchemist mentor. One day, after drinking her latest potion, his condition seemed to improve—only to later discover the shocking truth behind the 'elixir'. It was her breast milk?! --- He was a devil who sacrificed his family to save himself. At least, that’s what everyone believed. In truth, a soul from another world had hijacked Seth’s body and sold his family secrets away. The action led to the Fenix clan's massacre. After that, the real Seth, powerless and trapped within his own body, had to endure years of torment—until the day he broke free. Thus began the tale of a demon who did as his heart pleased. ---

"Love, Lagos, and Heartstrings" "But seriously, I’m coming over for an introduction. Your mom will give us her blessings because we’re perfect together!" she texted with a wink emoji, secretly pouring her heart out. They met in a group chat online, got close, and before she knew it, Nike had caught feelings. But now, they were drifting apart. Jimi’s response? A sarcastic laugh. "What makes you think we’re good together? That’s an awful thought," he replied hours after, like he always did. It hurt more than she let on. His cold attitude and constant delays left her feeling emotionally drained. How could she make him see that her feelings weren’t just some silly crush?

Thong was but an ordinary young man, dwelling in a remote and rustic village far removed from the bustling cities of the world. His father, the man he cherished above all, had always been the guiding light in his life. Though their bond was unbreakable, his father was plagued by a relentless illness that slowly drained the vitality from his body. Day by day, the malady gnawed away at him until, at last, the inevitable came—his father succumbed to its grip. In the wake of his father’s passing, the family’s modest inheritance was cruelly seized by his elder sister, a woman of great power and renown in the nation. She was a prominent figure in the realms of business and influence, her name commanding respect and fear alike. Yet, her heart harbored no love for their father. She took for herself everything their father had intended to share between his children, leaving Thong with nothing but despair. Wrath burned within him, fierce and unrelenting. In the depths of his anguish, he resolved upon an act most unthinkable. Ignoring the weight of law and morality, Thong took his sister’s life. He struck her down amidst her lavish comforts, her husband falling to his blade as well. The joyous life she had built crumbled in an instant, ended by her own brother’s hand. With his deed done, Thong fled to the humble village of his birth, retreating to the small hut where he had grown up. There, he waited in silence, awaiting the retribution that he knew would come. Those he had slain were figures of immense power; he was certain their allies would hunt him down without mercy. Thong sat within the confines of his hut, his heart heavy yet calm. He closed his eyes, resigned to his fate, but as moments passed, something unfathomable occurred. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a place entirely unfamiliar. The decrepit hut he had known was gone, replaced by a dwelling of intricate craftsmanship and resplendent beauty. The air was crisp, filled with the scent of pine and the faint hum of spiritual energy. Surrounding him was a mountain peak cloaked in thick mist, the heavens above painted with a brilliance he had never seen. His body felt different—stronger, lighter, brimming with an unearthly vitality. Slowly, he came to realize the truth: he was no longer in his own world. Somehow, he had crossed into another realm, one that bore a striking resemblance to the fantastical cultivation tales he had once devoured with fervor. Thong stood there, staring into the endless sky, his heart pounding with both fear and awe. This was a world of immortals, of boundless power and untold possibilities. His journey, it seemed, was only just beginning.

Going against the corrupted world, the General had succeeded in what he’d set out to do. With every enemy beaten, all obstacles cleared, and his soul drenched in blood, he stared at the blue sky and sighed. He regretted it all. Everything. It wasn’t worth it. He wasn’t happy. Staring at the corpses of everyone he’d killed in the recent battle. He only felt deathly emptiness. Why did I kill them… I could’ve just let some live… He thought he was tired before the battle, but now he was truly drained. None of it meant anything. It was over though. The war over. The battle finished. And his time was done. If he had tried as hard as he could in the earlier battle, maybe he could’ve survived this, if he decided to, maybe he could stay alive. But it was too late. There was no point. He had done it before. He’s survived against all odds and even against greater things, he’s powered through it all. But no. It wasn’t worth it. He was better off dead. So he allowed it. And it was over. The fool was dead, but someone nameless into another world would not be. Authors Note: Not a wish fulfillment story. I just wanna make something half decent at this point.

One moment, my Ethereum and Bitcoin were safely stored, and the next, they were gone—vanished without a trace. The total loss was around $221,000, and it wasn’t a transaction I had made. I was shocked and immediately started reaching out to the platform involved, hoping to reverse the transaction, but to no avail. Bybit couldn’t offer any immediate help. In desperation, I went to the police, filing a report and hoping for some kind of resolution. I also contacted the FBI, but they too were unable to assist me. The explanation I received was that cryptocurrency transactions are extremely difficult to trace and reverse, and that without concrete leads, there wasn’t much they could do. I felt completely helpless. It seemed like the money was lost forever, and my options were exhausted. Just when I thought all hope was lost, someone recommended I reach out to ADWARE RECOVERY SPECIALIST. I was naturally skeptical after all, I had already tried every official route and nothing had worked. But I was willing to try anything. Within 36 hours, ADWARE RECOVERY SPECIALIST not only helped me recover every single dollar of my lost funds, but they also uncovered the identities of the individuals responsible for the theft. I couldn’t believe it my money was back, and I now knew who had taken it.

They used specialized tools and techniques to track the stolen crypto and reverse the transaction, something I had no idea was even possible. Throughout the process, they kept me informed and made sure I understood every step. Their professionalism and expertise were invaluable. I’m sharing my experience to let others know that, despite how hopeless a situation might seem, there is a chance to recover lost funds if you find the right people to help. Thanks to ADWARE RECOVERY SPECIALIST, I was able to regain what I thought was lost forever.

[Matured Content] Saving an injured Fae in the forest had not been Islinda's plan, and worse, he turns out to be royalty, Prince Valerie of the summer court, heir and crown prince to the throne of Astaria. But then, humans were wary of those otherworldly creatures while the Fae looked down on the humans, thinking of them as lesser creatures. Islinda and the prince were worlds apart but that didn't stop them from falling in love.  Unfortunately, Prince Valerie couldn't stay in the human realm forever and had to return to his kingdom with a promise to come back for her. And she believed him.  But then, the other one comes instead.  Dark, broody, ruthless yet dangerously handsome, everyone feared Prince Aldric. Even as a fierce warrior and son to the king of Astaria, Aldric is denied his right to the throne and cursed never to take his place because of his dark heritage.  Twisted from the inside and starved of affection, Prince Aldric does what he is best at, causing misery. He captured  Islinda - the woman who has drawn his brother's attention. He stole her from her home for his cruel purpose.

Now she has been dragged into the middle of the dirty politics played in the courts of Astaria, not to mention surviving the cold games played by the prince.  But all hope wasn't lost because the cruel prince could tempt her all he wants but he was never going to get the one thing he wants the most. To be loved. He would never have her heart!  Or could he?  ________ "What can you offer me, little human," He grinned, slow and cruel. She would make such a wonderful plaything.  "Please," She begged him, tears now gathering in her eyes, "Just let me go."  "Fine," He shrugged as if it was an easy request, "You can go."  "W-what?" She croaked, finding it hard to believe.  "Little human, you would find out my mind changes very easily." Those words sounded merciful yet she could sense the threat beneath.  But did he really mean?  Islinda didn't sit around to find out as she broke into a sprint. If there was even the slightest chance of him changing his mind, then she would take it. She would not give up hope yet.  She didn't know why but Islinda spared a look over her shoulder after a while and the blood drained from her face at what she saw coming.  Oh no, she just made a terrible mistake.  This was never freedom.  It was a hunt.  And she just became the prey.  _________ Note: This is a dark fantasy book and the male lead is a villain, so don't expect fluffy romance. What to expect? Death, gore, thick sexual tension, and explicit scenes. Also, it is not reverse harem. Gift magic castle = 5 bonus chapters! Come, let us have a wild hunt!

The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle is a classic crime novel that follows the famous detective Sherlock Holmes as he investigates a mysterious case on Dartmoor.

The world was broken long before the Rupture tore the sky apart and unleashed its shadows. Kael Moren, a warrior gifted with the rare ability to wield both magic and steel, once believed in the Order of the Veil—a brotherhood sworn to protect the balance of the world. But the Order is gone, betrayed from within, and the balance shattered. Now, Kael is a reluctant protector to a handful of survivors, haunted by a truth he cannot ignore: the cataclysm that destroyed his home was no accident. The Rupture was the Order's desperate attempt to save a dying world, a choice that unleashed darkness far beyond their control. Among the chaos stands Eren, Kael’s former friend and fellow warrior, now a man twisted by the shadows he once fought against. Eren’s plans are as dangerous as they are mysterious, and Kael must face the possibility that his old friend may hold the key to understanding the Rupture—and stopping it. With his cursed sword Veyrune draining his strength and the weight of broken trust heavy on his shoulders, Kael leads his group of survivors toward Veyland, a city rumored to hold remnants of the Order’s forgotten knowledge. But each step closer to the truth reveals a darker reality: the world may not be worth saving, and the shadows consuming it may be only the beginning. Caught between loyalty to a broken past and the harsh truths of an uncertain future, Kael must decide whether redemption is possible—or if the only way to end the cycle of destruction is to become what he fears most.
