The Gap is the story of a woman lost in the empty years of her life, a stretch of time where joy feels like a distant memory, and love slips through her fingers like water. These are the in-between moments—the voids no one talks about, the nights spent wondering if the ache of loneliness will ever fade. She’s caught in a space that feels endless, where hope flickers but never quite burns, and every step forward feels like she’s sinking deeper. But life is messy, and so is she. In her heartbreak and solitude, she begins to ask the questions no one wants to face: What’s the point of it all if love only leaves you broken? What if the happiness she dreams of is just a cruel mirage? Yet, even in her darkest moments, she can’t help but search—for meaning, for connection, for the person she used to be before the gap swallowed her whole. Raw, intimate, and painfully human, The Gap is about what happens in the quiet spaces of life, where sadness lives—but so does the faint, stubborn hope that there’s more waiting on the other side.

A giant tree popped up in the middle of the Atlantic ocean covering the world in a strange new radiation and because of it, people began to change. First, there are the Chosen. These super humans have only slight physical changes and yet can manifest amazing elemental powers. Next, you have the Infected. These humans have experienced large scale body changes which range from animal adaptations to simply grotesque body decomposition. Most are still normal and sane humans who attempt to adapt to life while being shunned by others. There are some however that have grown deranged and think themselves the rulers of the world. Our MC lives a somewhat lonely life while sometimes being accompanied by his rather senile yet kind grandfather. He has no idea where his parents went after they dropped him off a few years ago, so he has no choice but to stay here. He lives by the idea that he should just be air and not be noticed in the slightest. All of this goes ok until things start changing and Laz starts getting dragged around in many different directions. Welcome to a story of Gods, evolution, love, adult situations and basically bringing a bit of eastern fantasy to western civilization. Hope you enjoy the ride.

Draco Xandros, an average young man, awakened an SS-Ranked Copy Talent and a Copy System. With these two strength, he had hope of fulfilling his hidden dream (becoming a hero) but fate said otherwise for him. Betrayed by the person he loved most, he lost his system and talent, his life hanging on a thread. Why? Why me? This question passed through his mind. The paining of getting his system and talent extracted and getting betrayed by his love made him fall in abyss. [Detecting sufficient energy to awaken the system] [Activating the Plundering System] **[Host has successfully awakened the Plundering System]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: Plunder]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: ????? Dragon Power]** **[Gained an SSS+ Talent Ability: ????? Phoenix Power]** This voice brought a change to his life. Farming EXP, getting stronger, completing missions. This was his daily life. Until a memory fragment surfaced... It turned out his identity wasn’t what it seemed. His past life, his parents—everything was shocking, as he found himself caught in a whirlpool of secrets. Follow Draco’s journey as he uncovers the missing pieces of the puzzle and the hidden truths about his past life. A/N: The novel entails a story about system holders. All ability Awakener have their own system, but in some classes, some Awakener are chosen by unique system, such as the Plundering System (MC's second system), Fox System, Thunder God System, Fire God System, Vampire System, Undead System and many more. I would say the novel has a foundation of magic with little Eastern Fantasy. It is a novel where the stronger prey on the stronger. You'll surely love it. As for the systems origin, I'll drop a hint: gods Please also note, the MC will be overpowered after the awakening of the Plundering System. However, in the beginning, he is just slightly above a genius fighter. 100 Power Stones: 1 Extra Chapter 250 Power Stones: 2 Extra Chapters 500 Power Stones: 3 Extra Chapters 100 Golden Ticket: 1 Extra Chapter 200 Golden Tickets: 2 Extra Chapters Support this shameless Author with power stones, gifts and golden ticket Discord Link:https://discord.gg/cEt823u7

Li Chunhua ne s'attendait jamais à être transportée dans un autre monde après avoir lu un livre étrange qu'elle avait trouvé dans la Bibliothèque de la Secte. Quand elle ouvrit les yeux, son esprit était imprégné des souvenirs d'une autre fille dont l'apparence et le nom lui ressemblaient. Elle était devenue le canon fodder vicieux dans ce roman de tourment du héros masculin qu'elle avait lu. Face à un avenir de mort misérable, Chunhua décida de rester loin du héros masculin et des personnages secondaires et de vivre discrètement. Grâce à sa constitution de carpe koi, sa route vers une vie confortable fut toute tracée. Tandis que d'autres mouraient encore de faim à cause du manque de nourriture, Chunhua avait déjà commencé à cultiver et à élever du bétail.

The King of Hell, me—Lucifer—renowned for my cold-heartedness and fearlessness. Yet, a carefully orchestrated conspiracy had me cast out of Hell, reincarnated as a mere mortal in a bustling modern city. From that moment, my life—or should I say, "afterlife"—spiraled into utter chaos. I always thought Hell was terrifying, but nothing could have prepared me for the horrors of Eastern ghosts and monsters. A red-dressed ghost bride? Vengeful spirits bent on revenge? There were even hopping vampires?! Every night felt like an extreme survival challenge, and I, the once-mighty ruler of Hell, was reduced to trembling in fear, clutching a peachwood sword just to get by. To survive, I had no choice but to team up with a money-grubbing Taoist priest, catching ghosts, exorcising spirits, and making side income. To make matters worse, I encountered a mysterious female ghost who wasn’t just stunningly beautiful—she seemed to know a secret I refused to admit. And as the demons of Hell began their relentless pursuit, I realized this wasn’t just some farcical nightmare—this was a battle where the fates of the Eastern Underworld and Hell itself were entwined. And me? The ghost-fearing King of Hell? Turns out, I’m the last hope.

Waking up in a strange world, Judith found herself in the middle of a desert, in chains and in rags. At first she assumed she was being trafficked, but soon after, she realized she was somehow in the fantasy world of her favourite novel. A fantasy world in which humans lived on a planet sized titan, bonded with mythical creatures to gain powers and went through insane climate conditions due to the titan periodically moving closer to its version of the sun. These were just the surface level of this world, because one of the reasons Judith fell in love with this fantasy world, was because of its complex ecosystem, simple but well thought out power system, riveting political battles and incredibly endearing characters. Finding herself in this world, Judith didn't know what to feel. But thinking back on her old world, the pain and struggles she had gone through and the losses she experienced, it was a no-brainer to prefer this world. And even better, this was a world she knew better than the back of her hand. So if one thing was for certain, she was going to use her knowledge to make this world hers. With this determination, Judith set out to carve a life out in this world, and succeed where she had failed in her previous one. ... At least that was the plan, but as it turns out, the person responsible for sending her to this world, was not doing it out of the kindness of her heart, but aimed to use her. Sun Qi sent Judith to this world to be a sacrifice, so she could gain the power she needed to save herself from a curse that would end her life. But disagreeing with this, Sun Qi's brother Wukong went into this world, in order to stop Judith and send her back to her original home. Unfortunately, things don't pan out as Wukong had initially planned. When he finds out that sacrificing Judith may be the only way to save his sister. But doing so would go against everything he stood for. Wukong will have to decide what is important to him, as he watches the events of this world unravel and in turn shape him. -------------- Author here, this novel will be very loosely based on the titular character Sun Wukong.

What happens when reality starts to bug out and your life as you know it is flipped upside down? Anomalies that couldn't possibly exist start to pop out of nowhere. This was the exact situation Magnus found himself in after a bizarre glitch yanked him from his own universe and tossed him into another. In this new, fantastical world brimming with magic and supernatural phenomena, Magnus's unexpected arrival landed him in possession of the Command Console, a tool that seems to be able to edit almost anything. With it, Magnus creates a variety of supernatural abilities that defy all common sense, even in a world of fantasy. Whether it was one that granted him truly endless strength or the ability to create detailed simulations of reality within his own mind, anything was possible. But Magnus isn't the only instance of such logic-defying abilities. All over the world, glitches are starting to manifest in weird ways: a brick that could knock anything unconscious with a single touch, a child whose perception of the world could affect reality, or even a woman who was, inexplicably, everyone's mother—there seemed to be no rhyme or reason behind any of them. When faced with all of these chaotic elements, Magnus comes to a decision. "Alright, if these are all glitches, then I'll simply have to be the one to fix them."

Set in a rich, fictional world where two vastly different kingdoms collide, Chains of the Crescent Moon weaves a tale of rebellion, forbidden love, and the fight for freedom. In the opulent Western kingdom of Luthadel, Prince Alden Roderic wrestles with his duty to uphold the traditions of a corrupt monarchy, including the brutal enslavement of conquered people. Torn between his role as heir and his growing disillusionment with the kingdom’s cruelty, Alden finds himself at a crossroads when he encounters Na-na, a fierce warrior princess from the fallen Eastern empire of Eryndor. Marked by a crescent moon tattoo symbolizing her royal lineage, Na-na is captured and enslaved after her homeland is destroyed. Their worlds couldn’t be more different. Na-na’s fiery spirit and refusal to submit challenge everything Alden has ever known, while Alden’s quiet strength forces Na-na to confront her own prejudices about the enemy she swore to hate. As a language barrier and deep-seated cultural divides threaten to keep them apart, they reluctantly form an alliance to dismantle the oppressive systems that enslave their people. Meanwhile, a parallel story unfolds in the distant East, where General Xian Feng, a cunning strategist from Na-na’s homeland, orchestrates a rebellion to reclaim Eryndor’s lost glory. Xian’s fate becomes intertwined with the Western kingdom when he discovers a dangerous secret buried deep within the heart of Luthadel—a secret that could either ignite a revolution or destroy both kingdoms entirely. As Alden and Na-na’s relationship deepens, their shared vision for justice propels them into a battle not just against a tyrannical regime but against the prejudices and traditions that have defined their lives. With alliances forged in the shadows and betrayals lurking at every corner, the pair must confront their personal demons while leading a rebellion that threatens to unravel the very fabric of their world. Will they succeed in uniting two fractured kingdoms, or will the chains of their past drag them into ruin? Chains of the Crescent Moon is a sweeping tale of love and revolution, where the fight for freedom comes at a cost—and where the heart of a kingdom is reborn in the ashes of rebellion.

I'm excited to share my experience with all of you out there who might be navigating the sometimes tumultuous waters of cryptocurrency investments. What I went through is a reminder of how crucial it is to stay vigilant and informed in this fast-paced digital world. My journey began with a seemingly golden opportunity—I was introduced to a cryptocurrency trading platform that promised astonishingly high returns. Like many others enticed by dreams of financial prosperity, I approached the venture with high hopes and a willing spirit. With an initial investment of USD 300,000, I couldn't help but let my imagination run wild with the possibilities. At first, everything seemed to be working according to plan. I was able to withdraw a modest profit, which fueled my belief in the platform’s legitimacy. The thrill of seeing my investment grow spurred me on, and it felt like I was well on my way to achieving financial freedom. However, little did I know, I was walking a tightrope over a deep ravine with little safety net. After months of trading, the promise of easy gains lulled my caution to sleep. I had made a staggering profit of $1,000,000 USD—a sum that seemed unreal. When it came time to withdraw my funds, however, I was met with a gut-wrenching surprise. The platform made excuse after excuse, promising outcomes that never came. It became painfully clear that the riches I had envisioned were nothing but a mirage. That’s when the despair truly set in. The dreams I had built up crashed down, leaving behind a sense of emptiness and regret. However, just when hope seems lost, I came across Cyber Constable Intelligence. Their reputation as a reputable recovery service intrigued me, and I decided to take a chance. With their expert counsel and persistent efforts, they guided me through the steps of investigating the scam and seeking the recovery of my lost funds. Today, I sit here, wiser but more alert, with a tale both cautionary and enlightening. While the recovery process has not been without its challenges, I am thankful for the assistance I’ve received. It reminds me that in the world of crypto, while fortunes can change in the blink of an eye, so too can relationships and trust. To all my fellow adventurers in cryptocurrency and those considering entering this world: educate yourself, be skeptical of promises too good to be true, and always assess the risks before diving in. Sometimes the allure of quick profits can overshadow the diligence needed to safeguard your assets. if you are a victim of a crypto or bitcoin scam. i advise you to contact Cyber Constable Intelligence Cyber Constable Intelligence Info: WhatsApp: 1 (252) 378-7611 mail: support (AT) cyberconstableintelligence.com Website info; https://cyberconstableintelligence. com

Her Lineage was cursed and a mission was given throughout the generations. Feng Hui Lan was the chosen candidate, heaven’s pick, but heaven’s pick that was against all odds. It shouldn’t have been her, but the mission fell on her shoulders. She was heaven’s pick that was sent into the body of a powerless empress with the exact same name and very similar face like hers. There she became ‘Empress Hui Lan’ who had been driven into a fiery pit of fire by her beloved emperor which had caused her unjust death. Before all of this, modern-day Hui Lan was an Eastern Historian Professor in England, but she would have never thought that she would be sent travelling back in time, even worse, into an unrecorded time period. Since young, she had been gifted a special gift to be able to talk to animals. There would always be small voices in her head, however, when she grew up, the voices slowly faded away. Until she came to the past where these voices reappeared once more. In the unfamiliar world, Hui Lan must strive among the plots and schemes aimed at her. Along the way, she has two majestic assistants to guide her, Yue and Hun that had come from an even more ancient time period.
