Sakamoto San Desu Ga

Qu'est-ce qui était pire que la mort elle-même ? Eh bien, c'était mourir en sachant que personne ne vous regretterait, en sachant que votre mort était un service rendu à tous ceux que vous aviez connus. C'était exactement ce que je ressentais le jour où je suis mort. J'étais le fruit de l'amour du Roi Alpha de l'Éclipse, à une époque où le lien d'âme sœur était considéré comme sacré, un enfant né hors mariage n'était rien de moins que sacrilège... 'C'était sa faute, il aimait quelqu'un d'autre que son âme sœur...' 'C'était sa faute, il avait eu une connaissance charnelle d'une femme humaine.' 'Tout était de sa faute, mon seul crime était d'être né de sa luxure.' Mais pourquoi ce Roi Alpha qui était mon père était-il parfaitement en sécurité, alors que j'étais haï, méprisé et blâmé pour tout à la place ? Pourquoi devais-je être le pion de mon père, utilisé pour atteindre ses buts ? Pourquoi ne pouvais-je pas être rejeté comme tout le monde mais étais au lieu de cela assassiné par ma propre âme sœur ? Pourquoi ai-je été tué avant même d'avoir eu la chance de vivre ? J'avais mille questions et pourtant il n'y avait personne pour répondre et c'était exactement comme ça que je suis mort... Alors pourquoi mes yeux se sont-ils rouverts ce jour-là, un mois avant ma mort ? Était-ce à cause de mon petit secret ? Un secret que je ne dirai à personne d'autre qu'à vous... Au vu du titre de mon récit, vous devez penser que je suis un loup Oméga... Non, vous vous trompez... Je ne suis pas un loup Oméga, je suis un loup Alpha et mon nom est Oméga. ~Deuxième livre de la série la Renaissance des Loups-Garous. *Pas un préquel ou une suite à 'La Némésis du Roi Alpha', les deux livres ne sont pas liés si ce n'est pour le cadre du monde et le concept de Renaissance des Loup-Garous. *Couverture obtenue sur internet, tous les crédits vont à l'artiste original.*

What began as a strangely dim morning quickly turned into a nightmare when air rockets, mistaken for extra suns, rained down on the peaceful city. Panic erupted as the rockets devastated the land, killing thousands. Amid the chaos, a young boy desperately searched for his family, only to find his father and sister dead and his mother fatally wounded. She died in his arms, leaving him completely alone. The boy survived, along with only a few of his friends, and witnessed the horrifying aftermath in a hospital filled with victims of the attack. The aggressor was revealed to be Velmora, a powerful neighboring country that forced Dravencia into a crushing treaty, costing them two-thirds of their land. Told as a bedtime story by a grandfather to his grandson John, this emotional tale explores the pain of loss, the trauma of war, and the enduring hope for justice. Though the war officially ended, for the boy, the battle within never truly stopped.

I, Zhang San, am absolutely a good person! I swear by the eight generations of my ancestors! What!? My ancestral grave just exploded!?

Di sebuah dunia yang dibina atas tulang kekaisaran dan kepercayaan kepada keturunan bangsawan, wujud sebuah desa terpencil di langit — peninggalan peradaban dewa kuno — tempat lahirnya seorang anak luar nikah dari Kaisar yang kejam dan seorang pembantu istana yang terbuang. Namanya: Nam King. Dibesarkan dalam hinaan dan kemiskinan, Nam King tidak memiliki apa-apa — kecuali tekad sekuat kehendak dewa. Ketika seluruh dunia mempercayai bahawa hanya keturunan darah murni yang layak menjadi pahlawan, King membuktikan bahawa kekuatan sejati lahir dari penderitaan dan keengganan untuk tunduk. Dengan tubuh muda yang penuh luka dan jiwanya yang tak pernah berhenti bertanya tentang makna kekuatan sejati, Nam King menyertai pengembaraan untuk menembus tembok Akademi Arkaidion — tempat yang melatih legenda dan juga alat sistem kaisar untuk mempertahankan kekuasaan. Di tengah penghinaan, ujian maut, dan tipu daya politik bangsawan, King perlahan membangkitkan kuasa yang terlupakan dunia — kuasa enam elemen purba: bumi, air, api, angin, cahaya, dan kegelapan, serta kekuatan utama yang hanya dimiliki oleh segelintir makhluk agung: KEHENDAK — kuasa yang mampu membengkokkan realiti, melawan takdir, dan menentang dewa sekalipun. Namun ancaman terbesar bukan hanya kekaisaran yang korup. Di balik semesta, bangsa Abyss, makhluk dari dimensi gelap yang menyerupai manusia dan haiwan, sedang mengintai. Mereka menunggu retakan jiwa, untuk menjelma melalui bayang-bayang dunia manusia. Untuk melindungi masa depan, Nam King mencipta sebuah rantai hitam legendaris, penampung kuasa lima roh dewa, yang akan diwariskan kepada generasi terpilih — bukan melalui darah, tetapi melalui pengorbanan, penderitaan, dan tekad yang tidak goyah. Maka bermulalah warisan 100 generasi, yang akan diuji oleh cinta, pengkhianatan, kekuasaan, dan kegelapan — baik dari luar maupun dari dalam diri mereka sendiri. Namun semua ini bermula dengan satu anak... Nam King. Seorang yang bukan siapa-siapa… Yang akan menjadi asal segala legenda.

Le Silence sous la Soie Dans un empire où les sourires sont masques, où les poisons sont plus puissants que les épées, et où même les dieux se taisent, un jeune esclave nommé Ken est vendu pour sa beauté inhumaine — des yeux aussi noirs qu’un abîme sans fond, une peau pâle comme la lune, et des cheveux qui ne reflètent aucune lumière. Acheté par Seiran, un mystérieux noble éblouissant, Ken devient son serviteur, son ombre, son reflet imparfait. Mais derrière son obéissance se cache un but : comprendre, surpasser, s’élever. Ken observe, imite, dévore le monde avec une seule intention : le dominer. Sa route croise Yuehime, apothicaire géniale, brisée mais indomptable, obsédée par les poisons plus que par les hommes. Puis Sahiya, consort impériale aussi distante qu’envoutante, dont le regard trouble les plus puissants. Et Ishime, dame de glace et de logique, froide comme la vérité. Mais tout change le jour où l’Empereur arrive incognito. Derrière la splendeur du trône se cache un mensonge : Jinshi, que tous croient frère de l’Empereur… est en réalité son fils. La vérité explose, les liens se brisent, les cœurs se dévoilent, et Ken voit enfin s’ouvrir une brèche dans le destin. À travers les jeux politiques, les trahisons silencieuses, les amours impossibles et les poisons lentement distillés, chacun cherche sa place, ou sa liberté. Mais dans un monde où les sentiments sont faiblesse, où l’intelligence est une arme et la beauté un piège… … qui survivra sans perdre son âme ?

In a world perceived by ordinary people as normal and peaceful, two hidden factions wage a silent war for absolute control: the Eastern Powers and the Western Powers. While most of the population lives in ignorance, a few individuals know the truth — a dangerous truth, buried under centuries of manipulation and conspiracy. Andreas Shinja is one of the few who are aware. Born into a wealthy and influential family, he possesses physical and mental abilities beyond human limits. Though raised under the influence of the Western Powers, Andreas disagrees with their methods of control and manipulation. His vision is idealistic: he seeks to change the world for the better, to free ordinary people from the grip of those who rule in the shadows. On the other side stands Subject Y.K., an experimental weapon created by the Western Powers — a one-man army, designed for mass destruction. Trained to kill, Y.K. has broken away from his intended purpose, haunted by a defining question: “What is the purpose of my life?” Unlike Andreas, Y.K. does not fight for others, but for himself. He sees the flaws in the system not out of empathy, but because it fails to give his existence meaning. As the two follow their separate paths, each driven by their own beliefs, they are drawn into a series of conflicts that reveal an even darker reality — a world filled with paranormal forces, fantastical entities, and ancient secrets.

The screen flickers. The camera turns on. A young hooded man sat on his desk. dim LED lights casting eerie shadows across the room. The man leans in, adjusting the mic with a familiar grin. " hi everyone, Kia here, if you are new to this channel, i explore the darkest corners of the human experience" " real people, real stories, we will be diving into the chilling accounts of people who have survived paranormal encounters or....at least, left a message...."

She woke up in an unfamiliar room, her body aching, her memories fragmented. The moment she looked in the mirror, she realized—this wasn’t her face. Once, this body belonged to the precious daughter of the Shen family—an heiress admired by all, engaged to Mo Ziqian, heir of the illustrious Mo family. But the moment her family crumbled into bankruptcy—something he had secretly planned—the engagement was coldly broken off. "You're no longer worthy to stand by my side," Mo Ziqian had said, turning his back without a trace of guilt. As if that betrayal wasn’t enough, the original girl was framed, humiliated, and violated—her pain turned into a scandalous video that spread like wildfire. With no dignity left, she chose to end it all. Just when she stood on the edge of death, Mo Zixuan, the younger brother of her ex-fiancé, reached out his hand. "Trust me. I’ll marry you, I’ll protect you." Desperate and drowning, she clung to that lifeline—only to discover she’d stepped into an even darker abyss. His love was a lie, too. "Even you…" she whispered, tears merging with the sea that swallowed her. But fate had other plans. A new soul awoke in the body—vengeful, cold, and calculating. She wasn’t here to mourn. She was here to make them all pay. "You ruined her. Now, I'll ruin you." But something is wrong. As she begins to seek revenge, memories surface that don’t belong to the original girl. Memories of places she’s never been. Names she’s never heard. Emotions that feel too real to ignore. “Whose life am I really living…? Who am I?” Is she truly just an outsider inhabiting a stranger’s body—or is something far deeper at play? What happens when vengeance awakens something older, darker, and more dangerous? She doesn’t just want justice anymore. She wants answers. And she will burn the world to get them.

Jiang Yan was at the peak of power and success in the business world. But her hidden enemies had finally caught up to her. In a shocking twist of fate, she was betrayed and killed along with everyone close to her. Jiang Yan thought it was the end, but fate had some other plans.

Armed with the knowledge of her future, she set out to rebuild her empire and take revenge on those who wronged her. "I will rule over everyone," she declared, her voice laced with determination. "I will make them all pay." But as Jiang Yan navigated the treacherous waters of the business world, she discovered that not everything was as it seemed. She had thought her ex-husband, Feng Yuansheng, hated her. However, his love for her went beyond life and death. As she uncovered the truth, she began to question everything she thought she knew about their relationship. Suddenly, a popular superstar appeared before her, declaring, "Jiang Yan, you are my goddess!" A sports star chimed in, "You are my master!" and a certain bigshot said, "You are my saviour!" But the ruthless CEO, watching all of this unfold, simply stated, "Backoff, she is my wife." The unknown person lurking in the shadows, retorted, "Really? We will see!" As she worked tirelessly to rebuild her empire and take revenge, Jiang Yan was plagued by the memory of the unknown person who had saved her life. Who were they? Why had they intervened? But as the pieces of the puzzle started to fit together, Jiang Yan realized that the truth was much deeper than she ever could have imagined. As the identity of the unknown person was finally revealed, Jiang Yan was faced with a shocking realization. The person she had despised the most was actually working to protect her all this time. But as she tried to wrap her head around this revelation, she couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that there were still things hidden from her. The truth behind was even more complex than anyone could have ever imagined. As the past was finally revealed, Jiang Yan was faced with the ultimate test of her character. Would she be able to protect everyone close to her? In this thrilling tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, Jiang Yan would uncover shocking revelations about herself and those around her. Join her journey to uncover the mystery of her rebirth and the true purpose of her second chance at life. *** Jiang Yan stormed into Feng Yuansheng's office, her eyes burning with fury. "What the hell, FENG YUANSHENG? Your men just attacked my business rival! I had my own plans for him," she demanded, her voice sharp and biting. Feng Yuansheng reclined in his chair, his gaze locked onto hers. "I couldn't let anyone harm you, Yan. I had to take action," he replied, his voice low and smooth. Jiang Yan's fists clenched, her anger simmering just beneath the surface. "I don't need your protection, Yuansheng. I can handle myself," she retorted. Feng Yuansheng's expression softened as he realized his error. "I'm sorry! I overstepped. It won't happen again," he said, his hand reaching out to take hers. As Jiang Yan looked into his eyes, she saw his sincerity and felt her anger dissipating. "Okay, I'll let it go this time. But don't think you can do as you please," she said, giving him a playful smile. Feng Yuansheng grinned back, pulling her into his embrace as he plotted how to hid his actions from her in the future. "I won't repeat the same mistake," he thought, amused by their game. Note: This novel is part fantasy and sci-fi! With multiple power couples, and the best kind of twist ever!

Sakamoto, a 15-year-old boy born into poverty, lives a quiet life with his grandmother, dreaming only of earning enough money to lift them out of hardship. His simple goal leads him to enter Seoul’s Grand Tournament — a brutal competition where monstrous fighters and humans with extraordinary abilities clash for glory. His aim was clear: win the grand prize of five million and secure a better future. But fate had other plans. When a mysterious and powerful group of elite fighters attacks the tournament, driven by their own twisted vision of reshaping the world, Sakamoto is caught in the chaos. Thrust into a battle far beyond his original dream, he now carries the heavy responsibility of the past — and the future — in an era that desperately needs a new hero.

The story began when Lucifer grew bored. This led him to decide to create a superior race to his father's, for his own entertainment. This race would surpass humans in every aspect, but there were still limitations to what he could achieve. For instance, he couldn't deceive the sun, a natural force belonging to his father, God. He desired a race that could outwit and behave like humans in order to deceive his father's masterpiece, but he couldn't create it in the same way as his father. Therefore, he opted for a shortcut - creating a disease known as vampirism. The main character becomes the first vampire, obtaining the blessing from Lucifer himself. In the year 646 A.D. in a small village in The Frankish Kingdom, a young albino girl named Carmilla lived in fear for her life. In those dark ages, her unique appearance meant almost certain death. Confined to the basement of her house, she had never seen the world beyond its walls. Her parents kept her in chains, showing her no love or kindness, except for her sister Anna, who was her only source of comfort and care. However, tragedy struck when fate cruelly took Anna away. Alone and desperate, Carmilla prayed for salvation, and in her darkest moment, an unexpected blessing came from the Seraphim Lucifer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In my novel, Carmilla will embark on a journey through different time periods, facing great dangers along the way. She may encounter historical figures such as Vlad The Impaler, visit the Lancaster duchess, and possibly even travel to Brazil. The story will be filled with numerous historical events, some of which will be altered while others may not occur at all. The supernatural world will be rich with a variety of folklore from real life, some of which I may create myself. Elements such as werewolves, sorcery, faith bearers, pagan gods, and more will be included. I draw inspiration from real world legends and events, and will also introduce some original creations of my own. Many of the vampire characters in the story will be influenced by existing vampire literature, such as Castlevania, Vampire: The Masquerade, Count Dracula, and others.

For eight long years, Lin Shuyin waited. Five years, she loved him silently as his junior. Three years, she waited patiently as his wife. If not for the night she turned eighteen—when he, drunk and distant, took her first time—she might’ve walked away before ever becoming his wife. But instead, she stayed. Hiding her true identity behind the mask of the perfect, obedient spouse, she remained by his side like a shadow no one noticed. In all that time, he never once looked back. He built an empire while turning a blind eye to her loneliness, to the whispers behind her back, to the way the world mocked her as the shameless woman clinging to a man who never cared. Night after night, she smiled through rejection, humiliation, and the suffocating silence of a cold marriage. Until one day, she snapped. She packed her bags, signed the divorce papers, and walked out with her dignity intact and her secret—one that had shaped everything—still buried deep in her heart. But peace was short-lived. Her nausea was getting worse. Her cravings were out of control. And her suspicions were growing. Was she... pregnant? As if the universe wasn’t cruel enough, suddenly— “Shu, you haven’t eaten. I made your favorite—spicy hotpot, no cilantro.” She blinked at the towering CEO holding a soup bowl and wearing her pink apron. “What are you doing in my apartment?” “I changed your locks for safety,” he replied with a straight face. “You broke in, didn’t you?!” And just like that, the cold man who once couldn’t remember her birthday was now folding her laundry, driving her to prenatal checkups, and glaring daggers at any man who looked her way. At her OB-GYN appointment, he growled at the doctor, “You’re looking too long at her belly. Eyes up.” When she went on a blind date (forced by her best friend), he showed up with a bouquet... and a baseball bat. “Why are you following me?!” she screamed. “I’m not following. I’m just coincidentally everywhere you go,” he said, deadpan. “Coincidentally hiding behind a tree?!” She caught him once reading Pregnancy for Dummies upside down while nervously sipping her bubble tea—one he had memorized the sugar ratio for. “Are you sick?” she snapped one morning. “I miss you,” he whispered. She almost threw a slipper at his head. Worst of all? He sends her voice messages now. “Don’t forget your vitamins. I warmed your milk. Left your pillow on the cool side—just how you like it.” She stared at the screen, fingers tightening. Where was this man when she cried herself to sleep in that same cold bed for three years? Now he wants to tuck her in from afar? Is he playing a game? Is this guilt? Or... is her ex-husband actually falling in love with her now—now that she’s done loving him? Whatever it is, Lin Shuyin swears she’s not falling for it. No matter how good he looks in that apron. No matter how he holds her when she’s too tired to stand. No matter how much he whispers, "Come back home. Come back... to me."

Todo empezó cuando ellos llegaron. Las criaturas. Los Refulgentes. La humanidad se fue al carajo, y el resto… bueno, lo llamamos supervivencia. Yo hice lo que tenía que hacer: formé un gremio, recluté a los más útiles, y me abrí camino entre traidores, mentiras y cadáveres. No por nobleza. No por gloria. Solo para cumplir una promesa que aún no sé si vale la pena. Y entonces, claro… llegó la traición. Una que vi venir, pero igual dejé pasar. Ahora, como líder de la Tríada, llevo el peso de un mundo roto en los hombros, mientras cargo con los fantasmas que ayudé a crear. Me llaman antihéroe. Me da igual. Los héroes están muertos. O peor: viven mintiéndose a sí mismos. ¿Redención? Ni siquiera estoy seguro de que exista. Pero si voy a arder, me llevaré a todos los Refulgentes conmigo.

Have you ever found yourself grappling with the idea that you might hate being human? Trapped in a fragile prison of flesh and bone, we often feel like limited and petty creatures. While I don’t harbor a general disdain for humanity, the experience of being one can feel suffocating. I spent countless hours pondering this very notion until fate intervened—I was reincarnated into a fantastical world as a powerful progenitor vampire. What followed was an exhilarating journey filled with destruction, charming companions, fearsome monsters, and thrilling battles of magic. And, oh—did I mention the delightful lesbian escapades that await? Trust me, you won’t want to miss it! ~~~~~~~~~~ I'm currently remastering it, and then I intend to continue to write until the end.

Tucked away at the edge of town, past the old railroad tracks and where the streetlights stop working, there’s a run-down gas station that’s open all day, every day. It looks like any other forgotten gas station in the middle of nowhere—with dusty shelves, strange snacks, broken lights, and a creepy smell that never goes away. But this place is anything but normal. Strange things happen here. There’s a gang of weird, possibly mutated raccoons living in the crawlspace—led by Rocco, a huge raccoon who likes to chew on car tires. There’s also a mysterious man known as the bathroom cowboy, who sometimes appears in the restroom, handing out balloon animals or singing songs that give people strange feelings of peace. The only full-time worker is the narrator, who spends most of their time behind the counter, dealing with broken equipment, strange smells, and even stranger customers. From a drunk who says he insulted the devil, to an old lady who insists her never-seen children were taken during a storm, to a farmer whose animals grew human faces—everyone around here has a bizarre story. Whether it’s the eerie silence of the woods downhill, the strange folks who wander in from the forest, or the way things just seem… off—this gas station is more than just a place to fuel up. It’s a mystery, a warning, and a strange little world of its own. If you ever stop by, be careful. The weirdness might follow you home

She was never meant to rule. She was never even meant to matter... As the last princess of the great Vampire Empire, Natalia Victoria Romanov was nothing more than a forgotten daughter—born without vampire abilities, cast aside by her own kind. But when the Lycans launch a brutal attack on her kingdom, Natalia is taken hostage and forced into a fate she never chose. To break King Marshall’s curse was to seal her own—for in doing so, she became his mate, his queen, his possession. Now, trapped in a kingdom of beasts, she is torn between two identities: A Vampire Princess, unworthy in the eyes of her own kind. A Lycan Queen, bound to a ruthless king who sees her as nothing more than a pawn. Marshall’s brutality and coldness slowly crush her spirit, but his brother? He is the only light in her world of darkness. And when blood spills, alliances shatter, and war erupts between Vampires, Lycans, and Werewolves, Natalia is forced to make the ultimate choice: Stand with the vampires who never wanted her? Or claim her place beside the beasts who stole her? One choice will crown her. The other will doom them all. ---
