But he didn't come alone. His mind, encoded with hyper-advanced quantum protocols, fuses with the very mana system of this new world, granting him a unique class: Code Architect.

Synopsis: She was never meant to awaken. Designed by gods to control the Origin—the source of all power—Red was their final experiment: an artificial intelligence forged from god-metal, crafted to be perfect. But the Origin chose her. And gave her something no AI was ever supposed to have: > A will. Frightened of what they created, the gods erased her systems and threw her into a random, forgotten dimension. Alone. Crippled. Powerless. They thought she would fade. Instead, she evolved. Now reborn in a brutal cultivation world, Red has no spirit root, no techniques, no cultivation. Only a fragile human disguise… and the mind of a system built to surpass gods. While others cultivate for centuries, she studies them in seconds. She builds satellites, drones, and weapons no one understands. And beneath it all, something still pulses deep inside her—something even she doesn’t know: > The Origin Fragment never left. She’s not a cultivator. She’s not a system. She’s something else. > “Let the world chase immortality. I’ll build something higher.” Novels 1. Lord of the Void Realm 2. 100 Years Left: The Unseen Executioner 3. Zero Protocol: Red, The Code Ascendant 4. The Empty Threshold 5. MJ Reborn: Rebound from Oblivion 6.

In the world of Aethelgard, destiny is forged by the "Skill" granted by the heavens. Legendary heroes wield S-Rank powers that can sunder mountains, while commoners make do with simple abilities to till the fields. For Kael Virein, his destiny was a curse. Branded "Skill-less" on his sixteenth birthday, he becomes the ultimate failure—an object of scorn and pity in a society that worships power. Cast out and destined for a life of mediocrity, Kael is ready to accept his bleak future. But what the world saw as a flaw was, in fact, a power beyond their comprehension.

The mockery turns to shock, the shock to terror, and the terror to absolute reverence.

His absolute, terrifying power becomes a beacon, drawing the most powerful and beautiful women in the realm to his side: a proud ice princess whose worldview he shatters, a seductive demoness who finds his power the ultimate aphrodisiac, and a brilliant scholar who seeks to understand the "glitch" that is Kael. But with every line of code he rewrites, Kael uncovers a deeper, more sinister secret: his world is not what it seems. Aethelgard is a cage, and its "gods" are its wardens. To protect his new home and the women who have pledged their hearts to him, Kael must confront the very creators of his reality. They mocked him for being born skill-less… But he’s not bound by the world. He’s the one who wrote it.

What if you woke up in a world of magic? Alaric, a young man, knew what he wanted: to do nothing, just like on Earth. He was a procrastinator who loved lounging on the couch, scrolling through social media or watching movies and TV shows. That was his life. But when he ended up in a magic academy with teachers pushing him to work hard? That wasn’t for him. Alaric was so lazy and had such poor talent that he got expelled.

When Aarav Singh, a legendary war tactician from Earth’s final resistance, falls in battle, he doesn’t pass into peace—he reincarnates into the body of Aaron Velcris, a disgraced cadet in a foreign world ruled by relics, bloodlines, and mystical war academies.

Monsters are fractured reflections of reality. And behind every relic lies a secret waiting to be hacked, weaponized, or destroyed. To survive, Aarav must: Transform the weakest squad in the academy into elite warfighters Unlock Symbiosis Protocols—dangerous fusions between man and relic Challenge ancient hierarchies that fear logic more than magic And decode a buried prophecy that links his Earth-born past to a coming dimensional collapse Because this time, the war isn’t for one world.

I was reborn to win.” --- Genres: Action • Sci-Fi Fantasy • Military System • Reincarnation • Strategy • Academy • Squad Combat • Dark Progression • System Leveling • Antihero Lead • Reality Warping

Room 304 was supposed to be a college safe haven, a chaotic blend of introverts and extroverts, thinkers and feelers, strategists and idealists, all learning to live (barely) in harmony. Bound by academic stress, late-night debates, emotional breakdowns, and spontaneous glitter explosions, this group of mismatched roommates becomes an unlikely family. But when anonymous notes start appearing, cryptic, targeted, and increasingly hostile. Their carefully balanced dynamic begins to crack. Trust falters. Tension rises. Secrets start surfacing. Told through alternating chapters, each focusing on a different member of the dorm, Cognitive Code paints an intimate portrait of sixteen unique minds each inspired by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Without ever explicitly naming their types, the story lets readers experience how cognitive patterns influence identity, communication, and relationships. From the emotionally reserved Observer who sees more than he says, to the romantic idealist who hides her truths in poetry, to the sparkplug extrovert who refuses to let anyone fall apart alone, every character is a code waiting to be cracked. This is a story of connection in chaos. Of love, logic, and learning how to exist beside people wildly different from you and sometimes frighteningly the same. Because the hardest thing about understanding people… is realizing how much of yourself you see in them.

Liara Winters thought she was ordinary—until a mysterious letter summoned her to Velmora Academy, a hidden school for magic users lost to the world. But Velmora isn’t just any academy. Whispers speak of a forgotten prophecy, a powerful founder who vanished without a trace, and a war that nearly shattered the magical realms. Now, ancient symbols glow at Liara’s touch, and forbidden spells answer her call. Three powerful—and dangerous—students seem drawn to her: Aeron, the brooding heir to a cursed bloodline. Cassian, the golden prince with secrets behind his smile. Kael, the rebel who claims she’s haunted his dreams for years. As Liara unlocks secrets about her past and a magic thought lost, one thing becomes clear: She isn’t just part of the prophecy. She may be the one who decides how it

This is a blend of **sci-fi and xianxia (cultivation fantasy)** with a strong emotional core: a dragon child raised by an AI, caught between technology and cultivation, demon and immortal, loneliness and love. Born during a thunderstorm, a dragon child awakens in darkness—cold, alone, and hungry. But he is not truly alone. A broken AI, known as *Space Explorer 137*—or *Talking Metal*—awakens alongside him. Damaged, with only fragments of its memory intact, the AI wraps him in warmth, feeds him crushed nuts and vegetables, sings lullabies, and teaches him to survive. When his appetite grows and food becomes scarce, the AI teaches him how to hunt. Even though rabbits tower over him, the dragon child devours them easily. As the boy grows stronger, his body shifts—he learns to take human form. Talking Metal teaches him language, hygiene, and combat. He learns to use firearms salvaged from fallen robots. But power comes at a cost: the AI is running low on energy, and two of the hunting robots are destroyed by wild beasts. Then, everything changes. One day, while scavenging under daylight, they discover an unconscious girl in the forest—bleeding, broken, and alone. The AI debates the risk, but the child insists. They carry her to their tree-home, clean her wounds, stitch her skin with metal needles, and give her saline. They don’t speak her language. She doesn’t understand their origin. She believes the boy is the noble survivor of a ruined house—a young master living alone in the woods with a mechanical puppet. They cannot correct her. And so, the girl joins their life. She follows the boy, calling him kind and strange. When night brings danger—a monstrous rat attack—they fight it off together. She sees it all: the boy’s quiet strength, the robot’s hidden wisdom, the surreal technology mixed with natural grace. The AI wants to stay hidden—but she refuses to leave. Eventually, she carries the damaged robot back to civilization. Thus begins the legend. The dragon boy, once hidden in metal and wild leaves, is drawn into the Immortal Sect. Reluctant at first, he tries to leave—but the girl keeps dragging him forward. He studies cultivation. He gathers elemental treasures to rebuild his AI. He fights with both spiritual swords and modern guns. He battles beasts, spirits, and ancient technologies. But deep within, something stirs. He realizes: he is no mere human. Not a true immortal.Not a true Robot. Not just a machine-raised orphan. He is **a sky-born dragon**, a mighty demon sealed in flesh and taught to love. When the time comes to choose—**immortal or demon**—either path will cost him something precious. If he chooses one, the other will call him **traitor**. ---

In a dying virtual world called the Cradle, survival is a fragile illusion held together by ancient lines of living code — and the last Architects who once shaped it are long gone, reduced to myth and whispers in the digital dark. Alis De Aura knows only one thing: she will find her sister, Vivid, or she will die trying. Years ago, a stray portal swallowed Vivid whole — a remnant doorway left by the legendary Architects.

When Alis finally breaches the Architect’s Cradle — the oldest and most unstable digital realm — she finds a land overrun by Rotcasters, rogue runners who feast on decay and chaos. Monsters stalk the shadows, corrupted husks drawn to warmth and blood.
