Cameraman Never Dies

In the greed-filled world of corporate empires and magic knights, Min Jae was a king in business, with pockets so deep he could drown in them. That is, until his life deemed his playthrough unfair and gave him a red card. Poison was his family's best friend, as everyone had at least tasted it once, not twice because they never could. Death was never on his calendar, neither was an offer for a divine gig. Enter the Deity of Stories, a celestial being with a fetish for plot twists, who offers Min Jae a deal he can't refuse: become her divine cameraman. No, not the kind with a lens, but one who records the tales of mortals. In return, he gets a second shot at life, in a world where his dearly departed parents are alive and well, ready to dote on him from birth. Reborn as Judge (because “Min Jae 2.0” sounded too dull), he quickly realizes this new life is no gift. This steampunk utopia, filled with airships, clockwork gadgets, and an alarming lack of Wi-Fi, thrives on manipulation. But who needs the internet when you have a divine camera and the sharp mind to control it all? Judge isn’t just here to record stories; he’s here to write them, casting himself as the mastermind behind every twist and turn. Armed with his divine powers, he navigates complex schemes, power-hungry nobles, and ruthless industrialists, all while keeping his ultimate goal hidden: to ascend to godhood and rewrite his own fate. Of course, he generally makes a glorious mess of things, all while trying to keep his dear parents blissfully unaware of his less-than-angelic schemes. But as the stakes rise and the Deity of Stories watches his every move, Judge must tread carefully. Can he manipulate his way to the top, or will he become just another character in someone else’s plot twist? --- Just a quick disclaimer: The book steers clear of any unwanted adult stuff. However, it does feature a potentially disturbing amount of violence—enough to make you wonder about the author's mental health. So proceed with caution—and maybe a shield!

SHADOWS AMONG THE LIGHT

In the floating city of Aether, where metal towers dance with ancient magic and steam engines, lies a secret capable of tearing reality apart. Rael, a young man with a dark past and forbidden blood, is thrust into the eye of the storm when a mysterious power within him awakens—a force that merges human genes with those of the Arkanis, interdimensional entities long considered eternal enemies. After a sudden attack by the radical Lumen Faction, which seeks ancient power, Rael learns that his father, Kael Veygar, was a legendary technomagus who sealed the Aetheris Gate—a portal to the heart of all dimensions—within himself. The seal wasn’t meant to protect Rael, but to save the world from destruction. Hunted as both key and weapon, Rael must face: Lyra, a Lumen Faction agent corrupted by illegal technology, burdened by vengeance and regret. Dax, a genius technomancer obsessed with knowledge, trapped in a game of power. Jyn, a bounty hunter android with a dark past, selling loyalty for freedom. Nexus, an ancient dimension where his mother—the Arkanis queen—is trapped, and where the secret of Kael’s death lies. From the black markets of the Lower District to a Cursed Island surrounded by magnetic seas, Rael risks his life to uncover the truth: that he is a symbol of sacrifice, forced to choose between opening the Aetheris Gate to save his mother or destroying it and losing his humanity. But the Lumen Faction won’t stop there. Armed with dimension-shattering weapons and hybrid soldiers, they force Rael to become a pawn in a war that will decide the fate of all beings—humans, Arkanis, and those in between. Amid betrayals, illusions, and epic battles across dimensions, Rael must answer one question: Does being a hero mean becoming a shadow buried in the dark, or daring to be the light that burns everything away? "Shadows Among the Light" is a dark fantasy tale blending steampunk, multidimensional magic, and philosophical questions about the price of peace. Here, true heroes aren’t unblemished—they’re the ones brave enough to stand at the edge of the abyss, between light and shadow.

Threads of Time and Steel

Threads of Time & Steel A tale about Love, Magic and Revolution By A.B. Sucrose Marina Eldheim is a brilliant inventor, a woman ahead of her time in a pre-steampunk-inspired empire divided by class and fueled by magic. With her wild curls, grease-stained overalls, and sharp mind, she's known as the Cog Queen, revolutionizing the world with her creations. But even her ingenious inventions can't shake the restless dreams of a man she's never met-yet feels she's always known. Silva Fischburn is a disciplined soldier, a man haunted by his past and bound by duty to the empire that once shunned him and his mother. Rising through the ranks despite endless sabotage, Silva's loyalty is tested when whispers of rebellion threaten to tear the empire apart. But what shakes him most is the mysterious connection he feels to Marina, the inventor tasked with outfitting the imperial forces. When shadowy figures from the slums and the nobility conspire to use magic and manipulation to destroy them, Marina and Silva find themselves drawn together by forces neither can control. As old secrets, forbidden love, and the ghosts of a life they've both forgotten begin to resurface, they must fight for their place in a world that seeks to keep them apart. With the empire on the brink of war and their enemies circling closer, Marina and Silva must decide whether to follow the paths laid before them or risk everything to uncover the truth about their past-and their future. A tale of love, ambition, and defiance, 'Threads of Time & Steel' is a thrilling pre-steampunk epic where magic meets invention and destiny collides with free will.

I am the Beginning and the End

Under the Heavenly Emperor’s nose, Leo succeeds in performing a ritual from a joke-of-a-book to go back in time. However, the Heavenly Emperor had been watching him all along. He did not believe the ritual would work, and this was a major miscalculation! Not only did the ritual work with Leo going back in time, but the whole timeline itself was flipped! The reversal led to the universe repeating the events again from a set point. The future people who hadn’t been born yet disappeared, but the ones already present regressed along with Leo and the Heavenly Emperor. With so many regressors acting as variables, will Leo be able to succeed in achieving his goals? Will the butterfly effect that would take place be too strong or will the variables be kept in check? What would the fate of the world be under such circumstances? Journey along Leo in a world of steam machinery, magic, cultivation, oriental elements, and added modern touch where potions are a way to breakthrough and unique to each individual! From dungeons to celestial realms, potions to martial arts, victorian era to modern cultivation; the world has it all! ….. A/N: What to expect? — Slice of life. Lots and lots of slice of life. — A never-before-seen blend of Victorian/ Steampunk + modern + Xianxia fantasy! — Unique cultivation paths for all! — System for all! — Multiple Regressors! — No Harem, No smut! — A power couple! — Good paced romance! — A new take on world hopping (the world hops, not the protag :D.

Fugitive of Fortune

In the sprawling industrial fantasy world of Callos, where Callo-powered machines and aethercraft innovations drive progress, Victor Crowley becomes the most wanted man on the continent. Framed for the assassination of a high-ranking Zavorskian official during a fragile international summit, Victor finds himself pursued across Zavorsk, Kalendra, and Xinqi by ruthless bounty hunters, armies, and the shadowy 13 Omens of Province. The Omens, enigmatic figures of immense power and influence, rule the continent from behind the scenes. Each represents an elemental force of life, from Suffering to Glory, weaving their agendas into the fabric of society. But as Victor delves deeper into his hunt for the truth, he uncovers a conspiracy that reaches beyond the assassination—a plot tied to the continent's history, its resources, and the dark secrets of the Omens themselves. With every step, Victor faces dangerous trials and unexpected allies, encountering two Omens in each leg of his journey. Some will test his mind, others his body, and a few his very soul. As he battles these forces, Victor must decide what he’s willing to sacrifice: his own humanity or the fragile peace of the continent of Eryndor. Fugitive of Fortune is a tale of injustice, survival, and the relentless pursuit of truth. It weaves a complex narrative of intrigue and rebellion set against a backdrop of steampunk innovation, mysticism, and industrial warfare. Will Victor clear his name and dismantle the Omens' stranglehold on Eryndor underground, or will he fall prey to the machinations of those who framed him?
