Beastbound: The Gryphon Tamer Benjamin always dreamed of worlds beyond the pages of his books. But when a mysterious quantum shift pulls him into Khial, a realm of fantastical beasts and uncharted wilderness, he’s forced to confront the reality of his imagination. Alone in a land where even the grass glows and creatures of legend roam, he stumbles upon an extraordinary gift: the ability to absorb knowledge directly from ancient tomes. With fragments of forgotten lore guiding him, Benjamin learns to tame and bond with the mythical Gryphon—one of Khial’s most elusive and powerful creatures. But his new life isn’t just about survival. The deeper he ventures into Khial, the more he uncovers whispers of an ancient evil stirring in the shadows, a force that threatens to unravel the fragile balance of the world. As Benjamin’s journey unfolds, he encounters others—kindred spirits and fierce rivals—each with their own agendas and secrets. Together, they navigate treacherous lands, unlock forgotten mysteries, and face the relentless dangers of Khial. Bonds of trust form, and amidst the chaos, Benjamin discovers unexpected connections that change how he sees this strange world—and himself. But Khial is unforgiving, and every step closer to the truth reveals a darker reality. To stop the ancient evil from awakening, Benjamin must embrace the unique power he’s been given and rise to meet challenges no one else can. Yet, even with the strength of his Gryphon and the knowledge of the ancients, the cost of victory may demand more than he’s prepared to give. In a world where survival is never guaranteed, Benjamin must decide: will he become the hero Khial needs, or be swallowed by the very legends he seeks to rewrite?

"In Qiyuan, kissing is an act of mutual surrender. To ask for a kiss is to ask someone to be yours, while offering yourself in return. On that note, making love is a common practice and is regarded as deeply romantic." —Book 1 of Romances in Qiyuan— Haruki had no memories prior to his awakening. With only his black katana and his name to ground him in an identity, he lived through every encounter on pure instinct and a great deal of luck. But it wasn't until he locked eyes with Lanling, those sky-blue orbs gazing at him with the stillness of a lake, that he believed his luck had finally peaked. Shamelessly, he integrated into General Lanling Cheng's army, finding the man even more pleasing to his eyes the longer he watched over him. But as Haruki learned more about his new idol, he began to realize just how deep their connection ran, how precious the memories stolen from him were, and how deeply he loved this man. No matter how many times his mind was wiped clean, his feelings seemed to cross beyond the boundaries of memory, for he had long branded the image and name of Lanling Cheng into the very depths of his soul. He could only hope for a day when the curse that plagued them—this curse that relentlessly tested their love—would finally be shattered, and they could live on with their lives in peace. ~#~#~#~#~#~ [Volume Synopsis] —Volume 1 [50] Amidst the war between the Silver Dragons and the Black Pythons, familiar faces and voices seemed to emerge from nowhere, as though fate itself were playing a cruel game, tugging relentlessly at Haruki’s mind—almost desperate to make him remember his past. But to Haruki, the most important thing was meeting and shamelessly flirting with the general, so he couldn’t care less. Besides, Lanling had told him not to remember, and who was he to disobey his future wife? [Bright, Straightforward, but easily teased gong (Haruki) x Calm, Mysterious and slightly black-bellied shou (Lanling)] —Volume 2 [51-150] Haruki and his friends find themselves in a typical isekai setting! At least, that's what Haruki originally thought. But soon, he realized the waters in the palace ran deep, and his connection to whatever schemes were brewing here stretched all the way back to before he even came to... Earth? So, he's a local? Oh, and there’s that Lanling Cheng… Haruki: ...God, why is he so hot?
