Forsaken Few

A Short Story with no actual meaning just to appreciate a few aesthetics I love

The Books’ Savior shop has thrived for almost a hundred years with his older brother as its next successor—until he disappeared one day without a trace. Forced to inherit the family’s book restoration business, Auri struggles to carry the weight of responsibility his older brother left behind. But just as he resigns himself to a life of mending old books, a bizarre encounter leads him to a mysterious system and ends up in a magical realm plagued with violence, injustice, and abuse of power. With no clear way to return home, Auri has no choice but to utilize the system to navigate the world he’s stranded in—only to get caught in a crossfire between the Holy Empire and the Magic Society as they wage an endless war for world dominance. To make it worse, he catches the attention of dangerously captivating individuals who find intrigue in his unique disposition and otherworldly beauty. Before he knows it, he gets ensnared in a treacherous game with his heart as the prize of whoever wins. But Auri is no fool. He is from an era where love is a game that even children could play. As he grows involved with many people who see him as a trophy, he locks his heart away and uses his charm to forge a path to survival—with his suitors’ affection as his shield. However, love is also a double-edged sword, and the longer he plays the game, the more he exposes himself to emotions he can’t afford to feel. To prevent any feelings from growing deeper, Auri must uncover the hidden secrets in every book he restores and go back home, before he gets swept away in a forbidden romance that may lead the entire realm into its ultimate destruction.

In a world of advanced technology and ancient traditions, jōki—a powerful energy fueled by emotions—determines one’s strength. Those who can wield it gain extraordinary abilities, while those who cannot are left to live in the shadows, able to sense jōki but never use it. Luka Viazemsky is different. Born without emotions, he cannot perceive or harness jōki, making him an outcast. Bullied and shunned, he struggles to understand concepts of right and wrong. But everything changes the day he is pushed off a cliff—an accident that should have ended his life. Rescued by a mysterious man, Luka learns he is not alone in his suffering. The man, too, was cursed with a life without emotions, yet he possessed something rare—a unique form of jōki that did not require emotions to manifest. Taking Luka under his wing, the stranger trains him before passing down his extraordinary power, unknowingly painting a target on Luka’s back. Now, armed with an ability he barely understands and hunted by those who seek to claim it, Luka must navigate a world that has never accepted him. As he fights to master his newfound strength and blend in with those who once rejected him, he discovers a far greater threat—the Xeno, an alien race that looms over humanity’s future. With enemies closing in, Luka embarks on a dangerous journey to find his missing sister, uncover the secrets of jōki, and confront the dark forces that will stop at nothing to control his power.

For the first time, he can move—walk, run, fight.

His voice was low, almost a growl, but there was a hint of something else beneath — something that made her heart skip a beat. She swallowed hard, her throat dry. The question hung in the air between them, heavy and tangible. "I… I don't know," She finally answered, her voice barely above a whisper. His lips curled into a smirk, a slow, dangerous smile that sent shivers down her spine. "Liar" he murmured, his voice a deep rumble that vibrated through her. "You want this. You want me." She opened her mouth to protest, to deny it, but he didn't give her a chance. His hand shot out, gripping her chin roughly, forcing her to look up at him. "Do you want me to prove it?" He asked, his voice dripping with challenge. ~+~ Tags: #Revenge #Strongfemalelead, #norape, #reincarnation, #Fakeidentity, #EdwardianEra, #VampireRomance #Smut #Supernaturalpowers #magic #darkfantasy #long-distance pining (The main characters are aware of each other's feelings but can't be physically be together yet.

"Let's divorce. I'm finally letting you go," she said with scarce emotion on her lovely face. Seeing her resolve, he felt heaviness in his heart. His face darkened, clenching his jaw. "You can't leave me. You are bound to me for eternity." He forcibly grabbed her, pinning her on the wall, his hands started caressing her sensitive spots. "And your body... doesn't LIE," he whispered sensually, lips gently nibbling on her earlobe. Her breath hitched, her heartbeat racing.  Seeing her struggle to resist him, he smirked triumphantly. "You yearn for my touch and my kiss. You also desire me." The next thing she felt was his lips roughly brushing against hers in a hungry kiss. **** Neglected by the King Enslaved by the Queen Bullied by her royal siblings Hated by The Kingdom's Hero Ostracized by her own people EVE HAD ENOUGH!

A single, towering city rises from a vast, lifeless wasteland—a remnant of an ancient war that shattered the world. The Spire is surrounded by a powerful storm barrier, keeping the horrors outside at bay. It is said that beyond the storm, the land is overrun by Wraithborn—once-humans mutated into relentless, armored behemoths that feed on the energy of the living. The city's elite defenders, known as the Stormguard, wear specialized gauntlets that allow them to channel the energy of the storm itself, generating electrical blades and explosive force to combat the Wraithborn.

I closed my eyes and let out a long, shuddering breath. The needle slipped through my numb fingers and clattered onto the rough pavement. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first peace I'd felt in my short, miserable life. No one would miss me, and if any did...? Well, there was always someone else to beat or rape. They'd move on quickly. But then...gods? Since when did nothingness have so many gods? Chosen by the goddess of Fate, I'm thrust into a world of magic and wonder alongside nine other heroes. A world where the gods reign supreme, and evil is vanquished before it can spread its blight. Can such a place truly exist? Could life really be worth living? I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows, but my life has been nothing but darkness. Perhaps this new world will be the chance I need to find the light, to see the other side.

“I won't divorce you, Melissa. Until your last breath, you will live with me in this nameless marriage,” Radulf declared. Melissa Rosetta, the illegitimate daughter of the Alpha King and an omega servant, had no choice but to comply with her father's demand― marry Radulf De Lagrange, the fallen Alpha of the once-powerful Shadow Hunter Pack. Despite being the strongest dominant alpha, Radulf's influence and power crumbled when his father was accused of treason against the crown. As for Radulf's punishment? He was forced to marry a weak, wolf-less omega, who he had nothing but disdain for. To top it off, he was sent to the Western Frontier on his wedding day. Melissa eagerly awaited Radulf's return as she suffered through ridicule, believing that when he did, he would be happy to see how mighty his pack had become under her care. However, after four years, Radulf returned with a beautiful woman, shattering Melissa's heart. "You betrayed me while I stayed loyal to you. I don't want to live with you and watch your affair with another woman. Divorce me, Radulf, and free me from this marriage. If you don't wish to do that, then mark me,” Melissa demanded on the day of his return. “Divorce you, Feisty Princess? Never! If you want to get marked, then beg me or seduce me to do so,” Radulf challenged. On the day of his rut, he said, “Melissa, my mate, allow me to mark you.” ~~~~ Special thanks to my editor for refining the synopsis.

Over 100,000 years ago, Earth was destroyed in a cataclysmic event known as the Stellar Severance. The collapse of an entire sector of reality tore open fractures across the galaxy, unleashing a mysterious energy called Aether that reshaped the evolution of all life it touched. Stars dimmed, civilizations crumbled, and factions emerged from the chaos, each vying for control of the galaxy’s remaining colonies and resources. In this transformed world, Samuel Solis—heir to the noble House of Solis—discovers that his genes have mutated in ways no one anticipated, granting him rare, mystic abilities. As Samuel learns to wield the strange power of Aether, he is drawn into a cosmic struggle where the future of his house and his own survival hang in the balance.

In a world dominated by the tyrannical Overlord, where society thrives on the power of Q-Energy, those deemed unworthy are discarded and left to perish. Ishizaki, a scavenger barely scraping by in the outskirts of civilization, never imagined he was anything more than another forsaken soul. But his life changes forever when he unearths a strange, sentient device hidden beneath the rubble—Solus, an advanced AI fused with Q-Energy. From the moment he touches it, Ishizaki is marked for death. The Overlord’s forces descend upon him with terrifying efficiency, forcing him into a desperate flight for survival. As he struggles to stay alive, he finds allies in the most unlikely places: Drax, a grizzled warrior with a thirst for vengeance; Kaede, a rogue scientist harboring dangerous secrets; and a group of orphaned children who have lost everything. But the deeper they flee into the ruins of the old world, the more Ishizaki realizes something is wrong. He is changing. Visions of a past he does not remember. A voice whispering in his mind. An unbearable sense of déjà vu as he draws closer to the Overlord’s darkest secrets. When the group uncovers the remnants of Project Ascension, a forbidden experiment buried beneath layers of deception, Ishizaki is confronted with an unbearable truth—he is not who he thought he was. The answers lie within a heavily guarded research facility, a place where monsters were made, and humanity was lost. It is there that Ishizaki encounters Unit 01, a being fused with both flesh and machine, a prototype of something greater—the first subject of Project Ascension. But what shakes him to his core is not Unit 01’s power or the horror of their existence. It’s the fact that they recognize him. “You were meant to replace me.” Before Ishizaki can demand answers, the facility begins to collapse. Unit 01, unstable and dying, makes a final sacrifice to ensure the group’s escape. But freedom is an illusion. As they emerge into the broken world beyond, a chilling sight awaits them—the Overlord’s forces are already there, waiting. Their arrival was expected. Now, with the truth about himself unraveling, Ishizaki faces an impossible choice: accept that he is nothing more than a failed experiment and keep running, or embrace the terrifying possibility that he was created to end the Overlord’s rule. Even if it means sacrificing his own humanity. The path ahead is uncertain, but one thing is clear—he is forsaken, but he is not alone. And for the first time, Solus speaks not as an AI, but as something else entirely. “Ishizaki… you were never meant to survive. But now that you have, what will you do?” With enemies on all sides, time running out, and the weight of the past crushing him, Ishizaki must forge his own path. A path of vengeance. A path of survival. A path of the forsaken.

It’s 2100, and Vincent Carter – Ying – is a twenty-year-old virgin with a penchant for profanity, he has but three guiding principles: “In a world where honour and valour seem like unaffordable luxuries, cowardice remains the pragmatist’s ultimate virtue. Spinelessness isn’t shameful, it’s simply self-preservative romance.” “Doubt is unironically the cheapest superpower a person can have, after all if it’s human, it’s probably plotting something. And if it’s plotting something, it’s probably hiding something. And if it’s hiding something… well, you get the idea. So question everything, one sceptical step at a time.” And lastly, “Muscle heads – because who needs brains when you can just flex your way through life? Couldn’t be me, I’ll tell you that much.” Armed with nothing but these… questionable (?) values, as well as experiences shaped by a hellish life in the slums, Ying dives headfirst into the latest VR sensation – Cultivation Climax, a world brimming with great magic, ancient mysteries, and blood-curdling conspiracies just waiting to be unravelled. However, because Ying’s life is just that kind of special, he is greeted with a rather ‘lovely’ surprise upon opening his eyes to the new world… Ding! [Your misfortune is truly astounding!] [You have awakened the absolute WORST talent for Cultivation!] ‘…’ “…W-what?!” Yes, what indeed. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/633482/fictions.

In this newly fractured world, power is everything. The strong thrive, the weak endure, and the Deva family stands above all—untouchable, unquestionable. Dion, an outcast without status or strength, watches as others ascend while he struggles to survive. He has no grand ambitions, no illusions of destiny. But in a world where the gifted rule and the forsaken fall, survival itself is a battle.

A world trapped in the endless dream of a nightmare. A cursed land writhing with horrors, bloodthirsty beasts, and the restless dead. Here, the fallen do not rest but rise in ceaseless torment, consumed by sorrow and insatiable hunger. The creatures that stalk this land are twisted beyond nature, driven by an unnatural, primal savagery. The gods, long lost to eternal slumber, begin to stir. From the distant void, bizarre entities watch in silence, waiting for their moment to seize control of the dream land. In the blackest depths, unspeakable nightmares lie in wait. To uncover the deepest secrets of this forsaken world, one must awaken, both in power and in will. Or perhaps, the only true salvation is to wake the world itself from the nightmare.

In a world where fate is dictated by celestial laws, Shen Liang is born as a crippled orphan, unable to cultivate. Mocked, discarded, and living in the slums, he is destined to be nothing—until one fateful night, a mysterious system awakens within him. But unlike other divine systems that guide chosen ones toward immortality, his is different… [SYSTEM ACTIVATED: HEAVEN’S FORSAKEN PROTOCOL] “You have been abandoned by the heavens. Will you rewrite your fate?” Shen Liang is given an impossible choice: embrace his cursed fate or forge his own path by devouring celestial destinies. With the power to steal and rewrite the abilities of others, he becomes the anomaly that even the gods fear. But power comes at a price. Every life he takes to strengthen himself leaves an eternal scar on his soul. As he rises through the cultivation realms, he finds himself entangled with Yu Xinyi, a cold but sorrowful celestial priestess who is fated to die young. Can he defy destiny and protect her, or will his power only bring more tragedy? As he uncovers the truth behind his system, he realizes he is not the first to wield it—but he may be the last. The system has a mind of its own, and it has an agenda far beyond his understanding. “If heaven won’t grant me a path, I’ll carve one with my own hands—even if it leads to oblivion.”
