So, I guess I'll return to what I do best: writing a stupid comedy novel. Again, this is a satire story. Expect memes and stereotypes. Don't take anything seriously. Lastly, this story takes place after Florida Man's General Store in Cultivation World. The MC is Leo's descendant. You don't need to read the previous novel to understand this story, but those who have will enjoy some easter eggs.

[completed] Willow Astor is, or at least was, a completely normal guy. That is, until he went in a forest, started a fire, and ended up transmigrating. In a bl novel. It would've been somewhat alright if that certain novel didn't have a fujoshi narcissist sister who transmigrated with him, an obviously smitten male lead, over the top characters and the things his sister made him do 'for the sake of the plot'! Can a straight guy survive in a place where every single person is a stereotypical bl character? Or would he be bent and forced to give in to became a typical bottom?

Goblins are stereotypically known to be an ugly savage creature with a pointy nose and yellow eyes with green skin making them a grotesque sight to behold only really using numbers and traps as a way to survive.

(Also available on ScribbleHub, and if they ever accept-- RoyalRoad) “I'm cold and hungry.” That single thought of hers ignited the beginning. The beginning of what, you ask? Haha, how innocent. She was great— No, no, no, that was an insult to the utter majesty she possesses. She is perfection itself; academics, beauty, ability, she had them. Yet perfection has problems in and of itself; not even she can escape the cruel irony of life. That's when things take an odd twist. On a fateful day, she and her classmates transferred over to another world! A tale as old as time itself, no? It was the stereotypical setting; the king and his knights welcomed the bewildered heroes in a grand room. Unlike her companions, she was an exception— She was starving, furious, and observant. Who wouldn't be? But their objectives were clear; slay some form of a "Demon Lord". Somehow, whilst on her quest for knowledge, she obtains the privilege of obtaining power that causes the collapse of the relationship between her and the kingdom, leading to the chaotic aftermath of a disaster. A vendetta forms inside of her; one that would shake the world to its core ... "How unsightly." Who is she? What are these terms? Why is this happening? How will she squash the balance of power? Questions upon questions. Simply read to understand. What to expect; > Hunger and thirst for the flesh and blood of the innocent (Light-hearted 'eating' scenes.) > A fantasy world which is basically a cut-out of Europe but with more fantasy > Working in the fantasy version of Germany (someday, in the later chapters) > Many cliff-hangers >Gore >Blood >Some more blood > Dungeons > Cutout HRE Information on Updates and other fun shit: https://discord.com/invite/tUx689n7Ng

Decades of Cold War nuclear testing has led to the evolution of a new form of bacteria: Revenants that live upon the hearts of their hosts and grant them superpowers. In the following years, Urasaria Academy is formed to house crime-fighting students who are tasked with investigating and killing criminal hosts. In modern America, the young loner lesbian Mia Schultz is kidnapped by a headless man and given Worldwide, the ability to summon a swarm of fire scarabs. As she begins her new life at Urasaria Academy, she is soon pulled into a mystery of Worldwide's true origins. This story features a primarily-lesbian cast, although there are bisexual & transgender characters. Common themes in this character-based novel include emotional growth, loneliness and what it drives people to do, how memory alters perception, human selfishness, power and how it is wielded. If you are tired of self-insert harem isekai and want a mature story where realistic characters go through deep psychological drama (in-between murdering the absolute shit out of criminals), then Urasaria is for you. I also promise that the story is accepting of lesbians, bisexuals, and trans people. You will not be stereotyped or fetishized. If you would like to read other disclaimers for this work, continue on below. While this is an LGBT+ story, it does not feature: • Coming out: All female students are already assumed lesbians (although a few are bi). • Excess homo/bi/transphobia: Villains may use slurs, but hero students are generally accepting. • Gay burying: There are a few secondary characters who die, but couples are safe. • Grimdark: My approach to writing is that art should depict reality in its full spectrum of human emotion: laughter, anger, absurdity, seriousness, frustration, sadness, grief, and joy. What is silly should be treated sillily and what is serious should be treated seriously. What this work does feature: • Ultraviolence: Expect decapitations, ripping heads off, filling enemy's throats with scissors and snapping men as one snaps a wishbone. • Untagged 'dark' subjects: Please note that there are characters with backstories involving trauma, abuse, or addiction. I do not intentionally provoke negative emotions in readers nor attempt to shock with trauma -- I am just trying to faithfully render all contours of an inner emotional landscape. • I do not always agree with my characters & my characters do not always agree with me: I really shouldn't have to say this, but a character spouting an opinion does not equal me agreeing with their opinion. Read critically; sometimes, a character may be intentionally inconsistent or hypocritical to make a larger point about their character.
