Altrocumulus Clouds

In the year 1995, a crystalline meteor hurtled towards Earth and crashed in the forests of Aomori, spreading clouds of mysterious dust upon its impact. These dust clouds contain a mysterious substance that turns children and teenagers alike into Espers, human beings gifted with supernatural powers known as Sigils. Some have telekinetic powers, others can control elemental properties and some of them have mind-control powers. As time passes, Espers faces prejudice from normal people due to their powers, fearing that they might replace them. Some of them even think that Espers must be eradicated. There are even people who want to capture Espers and exploit their Sigils. On that day, an organization dedicated to researching and defending these supernatural youngsters known as Lazuline was formed. They even built a paradise for them known as Azure City, an artificial island located on the temperate waters of Sagami Bay, Japan. However, Azure City was just a temporary solution to the Espers. Eldritch beings known as Deviants invaded the city and the shadow of a mysterious consortium loomed upon its supernatural inhabitants, and they must fight back for their rights to live. These are the stories of their struggles and their daily life amidst the threat posed by the evil forces.

I’ll show them the true meaning of strength.” Will he become the master of the sword—or will the sword master him? The story of a man who became the hope of the weak begins now. #MartialArts #Isekai #Swordmaster #UnderdogRising #ReformingTheMartialWorld

“Let there be light. And there was light.” I give grass to the sheep and strength to the horse; to the day I hand over the darkness, and to the clouds I command that they pour their waters. The Leviathan, whose breath ignites coals and whose power iron cannot withstand, a beast that drags the seas with its fury; begs to serve me. From my blood, I laid the foundations of the world; from the clay, I formed man said to him: “Be fruitful and multiply.” Behold, the One who uproots and who plants, who gives and who takes away. But now, the world I shaped trembles. The order I commanded wavers. Who dares to defy the Almighty? ____ This isn’t a biblical story, but a novel clearly inspired by it, but it’s not a religious text! No offense intended! Sandbox novel.

In the Jiuxiao Continent, martial arts is respected. The weak are like ants living in the ruins of dark alleys, while the strong are like dragons roaring and gathering at the top of the clouds. The laws of this place use blood as ink and bones as inkstones. A three-foot-long sword can split the sun and the moon, and a murderous thought can stir up a bloody wind. There was once a drunk madman who trampled eighteen royal cities to pieces. Wherever the sword pointed, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers were dyed red. There was also a saint who lowered his eyes to calm the nine thunder tribulations, and with a flick of his sleeves, a golden lotus suddenly appeared in the abyss.

This is my first poetry to my BFF, written on March 7th, 2023. Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain By: Amoureax Amant Peach blossom bloomed as gorgeous as bloom rain, at branch in full peach blossom on mountain, but left tree branch with wind through amber lake, toward fragrant sea like drifting snowflake. Just left when butterfly danced through peach tree, just left when hummingbird echoed with bee, when rising sun turned dark cloud peach blossom, when drifting rain fell from misty cloud dome. What if peach blossom stayed till September, peach blossom might neither dance through water, nor travel with light breeze through small arbor, toward vast sea like boat sailed from harbor. What if peach asked of peach blossom's journey, here's the answer, freer than in valley.

However, a million years have passed without the birth of a single holy being, and no one knows what became of the previous ones. There are whispers that the royal families have slain them all and that the gods are punishing humanity—condemning them to suffer in an era where holiness has lost its power. The oracles have lost sight, and demons and the undead have begun their conquest. The youngest prince of the Valgulas Empire, Emrey, finds himself amidst this chaos. As demons and the undead conquer lands, desperation drives humans to embrace demonic powers in a bid to obliterate their foes.

In a world where the divine is both a curse and a salvation, Emrey must navigate treacherous alliances, confront his own ambitions, and ultimately face the path that could lead him to become a God—or the harbinger of further destruction. Rain of Divinity is the first book in the Beyond the Clouds series. Each book will have 600 chapters.
