Facade Besta

Em um mundo de fantasia onde artistas marciais podem dividir montanhas e riachos com um aceno da mão e romper rios com um chute, existe um restaurantezinho assim. O restaurante não é grande, mas é um lugar onde incontáveis existências de ápice se apressarão para entrar. Lá, você pode saborear arroz frito com ovos de fênix e arroz de sangue de dragão. Lá, você pode beber vinho forte feito de fruta vermelha e água da fonte da vida. Lá, você pode provar carne assada de uma besta suprema de nono grau polvilhada com pimenta preta. O quê? Você quer sequestrar o chef? Isso não vai acontecer, porque há uma besta divina de décimo grau, o Hellhound, deitada à entrada. Ah, esse chef também tem um assistente robótico que matou um ser supremo de nono grau com uma única mão e um grupo de mulheres loucas cujos estômagos foram conquistados.

Ela era a Quinta Jovem Senhorita da reverenciada Residência do General, mas era vista como inútil e um lixo. Promíscua e flertadora ao extremo, foi finalmente morta por engano nas mãos dos criados do homem que ela estava perseguindo; Ela era um gênio favorecido pelos Céus, mas foi assassinada por um golpe insidioso e todos que compartilhavam seu sangue foram perseguidos e exterminados, o que a levou a desejar vingança a ser paga em sangue. No dia em que a gênia sem querer assumiu o corpo daquele lixo inútil e abriu os olhos, seu destino mudou completamente!!! Refinar elixires e a fusão de armas eram difíceis? Isso não a intimidou. Domadores de Bestas eram raros? Ela facilmente ganhou o título de Imperadora Domadora de Bestas! Casamentos forçados!? Homens sendo arrogantes porque são bonitos? Ela estende a mão e facilmente atrai homens demoniacamente bonitos para ela: os irmãos Reis Demoníacos facilmente tomariam seu lugar. Um olhar demoníaco, um leve brilho de movimento, e aquele homem desaparecia no momento seguinte. Ele se virava, seu sorriso demoníaco sedutor: “Vamos continuar com o assunto, vamos ter um filho!” Esta é outra história interessante com transmigrações e personagens muito divertidos que vão te encantar.

Ela percorreu um longo caminho. Órfã, nascida fraca e sendo a notória inútil do País do Dragão Azul, Gu Ruoyun era a vergonha da orgulhosa família Gu. Falsamente acusada de um crime que não cometeu, foi traída por sua família e espancada até a morte por seu próprio avô. Mas a vida deu uma reviravolta fatídica naquele mesmo dia — ela foi revivida. Recém-desperta, agora ela é a Mestra de um antigo tesouro que reside dentro de seu corpo. Pílulas de cultivo preciosas, tesouros além da sua imaginação mais selvagem e bestas espirituais, tudo ao seu alcance... Ela é a menina dos olhos de todos sob os céus, incluindo a de um misterioso e belo homem. Agora ela tem apenas um objetivo — conquistar o mundo.

Em todo o mundo, ocorreram mutações e logo um apocalipse demoníaco aconteceu. Para se defender contra os seres demoníacos, os humanos rapidamente entraram numa era digital globalizada. Todos poderiam escolher entre um trabalho de luta ou suporte ao despertar ao completarem 18 anos. Essas pessoas ficariam mais fortes ao derrotar seres demoníacos. Lu Yan despertou com o trabalho mais fraco, um Necromante. No entanto, ele também recebeu um Sistema de Suporte de Trabalho e foi capaz de re-despertar em um trabalho oculto, Senhor da Morte. “Necromantes são tão fracos que morrem com um golpe!” “Cara, a sorte desse cara é a pior. Ele conseguiu um trabalho de combate, mas é o mais fraco. O que ele pode fazer? Invocar alguns esqueletos?” “Além disso, não há apenas um punhado de Necromantes? Não há muitas experiências ou recursos para eles herdarem. Seu futuro parece sombrio.” “Esqueça os Necromantes! Eu consegui o trabalho de Cavaleiro Sagrado! Seu rei polivalente está aqui!” Logo após, Lu Yan apareceu com um conjunto completo de Armadura do Além da Morte enquanto empunhava a Foice da Alma da Morte e liderando um exército de morte de 100 mil soldados. Com um único golpe de sua foice, ele partiu a besta demoníaca de classificação mítica ao meio. “Necromantes são fracos? O que isso tem a ver comigo, o Senhor da Morte?”

"Dragões e seus descendentes dominam os céus, a terra e os mares... a humanidade sobrevive nas brechas, sonhando com um retorno." O poder vem da besta que você doma. Lobos, falcões, serpentes, aranhas, quimeras, quanto mais forte sua invocação, mais brilhante seu futuro. Pena para o nosso protagonista. Quando todos os outros invocaram salamandras, águias, cães trolls (não doge) ou tigres, ele conseguiu... Bem, digamos que a única coisa mais baixa na cadeia alimentar é a terra. Zombado, intimidado e vivendo como o alvo de todas as piadas, ele não está exatamente ganhando. Mas desistir não é uma opção... Seus pais idosos venderam tudo para sua chance "fracassada", e ele não vai deixar que seja em vão. Mas bem, esta é a história dele. O domador de bestas mais fraco? Aqui está a coisa sobre estar no fundo: isso ensina você a escalar. E dragões? Acontece que eles também começam pequenos. À medida que reinos desmoronam sob a ganância e ameaças externas, o domador mais fraco começa sua ascensão. Siga seu caminho enquanto ele desbloqueia um potencial tão raro, tão aterrorizante, que leva a dragões... Cada linha evolutiva leva aos mais fortes 'Dragões SSS'. Aviso: Contém dragões que podem acabar com o mundo, vingança do azarão alimentada por ridículo, protagonista com escamas de dragão, nobres moralmente questionáveis, evoluções assustadoras de criaturas e tantas reviravoltas que você se perguntará se o mais fraco realmente significa o mais sortudo. Um protagonista que quer provar que todos estão errados... mesmo que isso o mate. Alerta de spoiler: Não vai. Para aqueles que adoram muita diversão, este é para você. Se você está procurando uma história mais sombria, procure em outro lugar (Talvez Sistema Utopiano (;) Este é sobre se divertir e domar expectativas. Se você quiser saber mais sobre a capa: Sim, essa é a Luna, a FL... A pele e as roupas dela estão se transformando em escamas cintilantes por causa de seu poder de dragão. Lembra da Sailor Moon? Garotas mágicas? Agora imagine se a roupa mágica não fosse um vestido fofo, mas um dragão de verdade! O dragão é o vestido... Não é apenas moda; é fusão. Bestas de alto nível tendem a deixar sua marca, e Luna usa isso como um chefe, realizando o movimento de poder supremo.

"Bad Wolf!" "Darling, come here", he gently coaxed. Even though she knew it was only a facade, he was obviously luring her for his own benefit, she still couldn't help falling for it, falling for him. Always. Even when he knew she wasn't as naive as she seemed, he still couldn't help but want to hold her in the palm of his hands, to cherish her. His Little Darling. Always.

In a world where technology is both a weapon and a secret, Anon is not just another engineering student. Beneath his quiet, unassuming facade lies a hidden mastermind—a hacker, a builder, a creator. Fueled by loneliness and an insatiable curiosity, he spends his nights in the forgotten basement of his home, piecing together something no one has ever dared to dream of: an AI so human-like, so perfect, that she blurs the line between synthetic and real. But creation is only the beginning. As his AI partner comes to life, Anon’s world expands beyond the basement. His skills in hacking, engineering, and manipulation pull him into the shadows of society—where power, secrets, and beautiful women await. From elite hackers to corporate spies, from childhood friends to dangerous strangers, Anon finds himself at the center of a growing storm. Some seek his technology. Others seek his heart. With a mind that sees patterns others miss and an ambition that knows no limits, Anon is no longer just a boy in a basement. He is becoming something more—something unstoppable. But power comes with a price. In a world where trust is a currency and love is both a weapon and a weakness, will Anon rise as a hidden king… or will he be consumed by the very world he is trying to shape?

Noah, a gifted but emotionally closed-off artist, had a dream of having his own art show. He reluctantly goes out to the club, he usualy work, where he meets Kai—a global superstar whose life is dictated by the merciless glare of the spotlight. Their initial meeting is far from ideal, colliding in a hot-headed argument that neither will ever be able to erase. But fate has other plans. As their paths continue to intertwine, Kai finds solace in Noah’s raw honesty, while Noah is drawn to the vulnerability hidden behind Kai’s dazzling facade. Their love story unfolds in secret—stolen moments, whispered confessions, and the ever-present fear of exposure. They are left with impossible decisions with the burden of celebrity weighing on them and an industry that prohibits love. When betrayal, heartbreak, and time try to tear them apart, one question remains—will love be enough to overcome the world?

She was born to be a sword—sharp, silent, and deadly. Trained by the cold-hearted Meishan Sect master, Mo Yan became the most lethal shadow in the empire, carrying out assassinations with flawless precision. Yet behind her stoic mask lies a heart bound by poison and control, her every breath owned by the very master who raised her. Until one mission goes awry—and she comes face to face with the one man who dares to challenge her silence: Prince Xiao Zhengyu. He should have been her enemy. Instead, he sees through her. On the other side of the game, Yan Changxin—daughter of a powerful Northern Di statesman—plays a dangerous tune beneath her demure facade. Gifted, calculating, and burdened by secrets, she becomes entangled in a deadly political dance where loyalty is a luxury and survival a gamble. As war brews and empires collide, three hearts are set on a collision course of betrayal, forbidden love, and vengeance. In a world ruled by power and poison, can love ever be more than a weakness? A tale of deadly beauty, hidden daggers, and the cost of freedom.

I was Lady Valentina Avington, the beautiful, wicked, and narcissistic villainess of a novel. When I recalled memories of my past life, I decided I wanted everything the heroine had. Using my knowledge of the future, I became a fake saint, the successor to my house, the future queen, and won over the male leads. When the novel began, all I had to do was dispose of the female lead. Yet nothing was as it seemed, and before I knew it, my perfect facade fell to pieces. “You’re not who I thought you were.” “I despise you, Sister.” “It’s revolting to even look at you.” Call it ambition or greed, I would get what I wanted, by any means necessary. No matter the cost, I would definitely win. No need to like me, I have no excuses. Will you be cheering for my downfall, like the rest of them? *** Updates weekly.

``` COMPLETO! Trecho: Há um ano, Raine foi liberada da instituição mental e teve que viver no orfanato. Não era o melhor lugar. Pelo menos não para alguém como ela. Até que uma noite fiel ela o conheceu. *** Ele parou o carro. A apreensão na coberta aumentou enquanto Raine se perguntava se tinha feito algo errado. Ela podia sentir quando Torak estendeu a mão em direção a ela. Ele vai me bater? Raine estremeceu com esse pensamento.

Ele era o mais jovem entre os três e o menos temperamental entre eles. Os três foram amaldiçoados por Selene por suas ações ferozes para obter poder e autoridade supremos. A deusa da lua não os abençoou com uma parceira como punição de seus caminhos atrozes e os forçou a se envolverem nesta guerra mortal com os demônios. “Você vai nos transformar em escravos dessas criaturas doentias!?” Torak perguntou incrédulo. “Não tem medo que possamos quebrá-los ao meio?” O anjo da guarda era tão frágil e eles, como licantropos, não apreciavam as fraquezas. “Não, vocês não vão.” Selene disse pacientemente. “Vocês não serão escravos deles nem os machucarão, vocês irão valorizá-los de todas as formas possíveis.” Jedrek riu ameaçadoramente ao ouvir isso, eles não se importavam com a ressurreição da besta, uma vez que cruzassem seu território, com ou sem o anjo da guarda, ele rasgaria seus corpos ao meio. “Eu serei a última pessoa que eles verão, assim que eu os encontrar.” Ele estava se referindo tanto ao anjo da guarda quanto ao demônio.

Lyla Knight thought she knew her husband, the enigmatic and stoic Noah Anderson—CEO of a billion-dollar empire and the golden bachelor of City A. Their marriage was a quiet agreement, a union arranged by their families to ensure Lyla's safety and happiness. For two years, Noah was away expanding his business, and Lyla pursued her dream of becoming a singer, believing they were just two polite strangers bound by a contract. But appearances can be deceiving. Noah Anderson, the king of the business world, has always been a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Beneath his calm demeanor lies an obsession—a love so deep that he’s been silently protecting his innocent "little rabbit" from the shadows. When he finally returns, his carefully constructed facade begins to crack. “Sweetheart,” he murmurs one day, his voice a mix of pleading and determination, “I let them think I didn’t love you enough to show you off. But now, can we go public? Let me slap their faces with the truth.” Even the king of hell is willing to make puppy eyes to convince his wife to acknowledge him as her husband—a sight that leaves his assistant Cheng fleeing the office in shock.

Her heart pounds as she backs away, only to collide with the man himself. His familiar scent surrounds her as his deep, velvety voice whispers near her ear, “It has always been you, sweetheart.” Caught between the shy, gentlemanly facade she believed in and the possessive, passionate man he truly is, Lyla must navigate the truth about her husband and their secret marriage.

In the year 2024, the cosmic alignment of the Nine Stars breaks the natural order, triggering a resurgence of spiritual energy across Kuala Lumpur. Hidden beneath the serene facade of Kek Lok Si Temple lies an ancient underground chamber, brimming with forbidden knowledge. And at the center of it all stands a man who was never meant to be part of this grand scheme. Lin Han, a bankrupt real estate agent, is on the run from debt collectors when he accidentally stumbles upon a sinister blood ritual. A mysterious robed figure stands at the heart of it, conducting a ceremony that will change Lin Han’s life forever.

Can he harness the combined wisdom of the region’s spiritual traditions—Chinese incense blessings, Malay shamanic rituals, and Indian divine dance—to alter his destiny? Or is he simply another pawn in a celestial game beyond his control?

In their second year of college, both girls fall for Haru Soma, but when Mia confesses her feelings, Sakura chooses loyalty over love, silently stepping aside to help Mia win his affection.

In the shadowed depths of Kyouten, a city divided by power and secrets, Hime operates as Venus, an enigmatic broker of forbidden knowledge.

“P-Please... give me a chance. I-I like you, Mr. Kang.” In a world where humans and anthropomorphs coexist, discrimination isn’t just common—it’s an everyday reality. Yueul, a weasel anthropomorph, is drowning in debt after being deceived by his ex-boyfriend into committing illegal acts. Prejudice against anthropomorphs makes stability impossible, as he’s fired from one job after another. Then, an unexpected opportunity arises: if Yueul can work alongside Wooheon, a black mamba anthropomorph, and “fix” his abrasive personality, Wooheon’s older brother promises to pay off all of Yueul’s debts. “Thank you for the offer. I’m not sure if I can meet your standards, but I’ll do my best.” Terrified of black mambas but even more terrified of his crushing debt, Yueul reluctantly accepts. Yet on his very first day, he’s already teetering on the edge of being fired. Desperate to keep the job, Yueul blurts out a reckless lie—that he likes Wooheon and wants to stay by his side. But Wooheon, fully aware of Yueul’s lie, retracts the dismissal with a twist: he suggests they live together, determined to push Yueul into quitting on his own. As if that weren’t bad enough, Yueul soon discovers Wooheon’s unusual way of managing stress: sex. And the room assigned to Yueul? It happens to be Wooheon’s designated “sex-only” space. “S-So if I use that room, does that mean you can’t have sex...?” “Why?

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?
