Only Fools Alarm Clock

1. Uniqueness and Appeal of the Story (Condensed) 1. Worldbuilding: Historical Grit Meets Supernatural Spectacle Setting: 1930s America/Europe: Blends Great Depression realities (NYC soup kitchens, corrupt Wall Street alchemists) with occult threats. Nazi "Lebensborn" experiments resurrect through cursed artifacts, while vampire clans like Sanctum Sanguinis manipulate London's underworld. Core Innovation: Merges noir detective drama, Lovecraftian cosmic horror, and vampire political epics into a cohesive "dark fantasy" universe. Protagonist Wayne navigates gangster-ruled streets and eldritch rituals with equal pragmatism. 2. Plot Architecture: Layered Mysteries & Explosive Payoffs Opening Hook: A seemingly routine infidelity case unravels into a cult conspiracy marked by glowing cat eyes and radioactive mushroom-induced visions. The mundane detective office becomes a gateway to hidden wars. Key Conflicts: Personal: Wayne’s quest to find his sister Gwen—a victim of 1935 Nazi experiments—while battling his own physical decay (corpse-like stench, stopped pocket watch). Supernatural: Vampire dynasties, hellish legions, and secret societies (Mirror Sect) clash over the "Living Grail," a sentient artifact granting control over reality. Historical: Nazi occultists infiltrate America using gold-skull rituals; Federal Reserve corruption fuels supernatural arms races. Climactic Sequences: Holy Grail War: Wayne’s ragtag Vowbound Cross faction battles vampire hordes in London, with alchemically enhanced revolvers firing self-guided silver bullets. Leviathan Rising: A kaiju-like beast emerges from Liverpool’s waters, countered by undead dragons and Vatican light magic. Twist Ending: Gwen is revealed as a Nazi-made proto-vampire, forcing Wayne to sacrifice himself as a vessel to seal an elder god—leaving moral ambiguity lingering. 3. Characters: Moral Complexity & Jarring Contrasts Wayne (Protagonist): Flawed Antihero: A whiskey-drinking PI masking survivor’s guilt with sarcasm. His fake "model citizen" diary clashes with ruthless tactics (blackmail, radioactive interrogations). Duality: Protects street orphans while exploiting clients, embodying Depression-era moral erosion. Veronica & Wilhelm: Noble Fugitives: Veronica’s aristocratic German past and Wilhelm’s swastika-etched knife hint at dark histories. Posing as a secretary/gardener, they manipulate Wayne’s investigations. Comic Relief: Wilhelm’s mountain-like physique paired with cat-obsessed campiness ("sailor outfits") offsets existential dread. Antagonists: Preacher Jacob: A vampiric zealot who views bloodsucking as divine sacrament, mirroring Wayne’s nihilism. Dr. Isaac: A Nazi eugenicist weaponizing vampirism, blending scientific rigor with monstrous ambition. 4. Narrative Craft: Noir Aesthetics & Pseudoscience Multi-Perspective Storytelling: Wayne’s cynical first-person narration intercuts with newspaper clippings (Jack the Ripper Returns), cult parchments, and Veronica’s encrypted journals to piece together the puzzle. Stylized Language: Gritty metaphors: "Wall Street fog smells of rusted dreams," "Veronica’s hair outshines Coney Island neon." Symbolism: Bulletproof doors adorned with Citizen Kane posters critique hollow American idealism; cash-stuffed Bibles mock religious hypocrisy. Sci-Fantasy Systems: Vampire "sun weakness" explained as uranium radiation side effects. "Eldritch whispers" rationalized as infrasound brainwashing; hell reimagined as a quantum dimension. Weapons: Rune-engraved silver bullets, alchemy-modified revolvers blending mysticism and tech.

"Tell me to stop, Ruth," he whispered, letting his minty breathe fan over my lips. He sounded desperate.. broken. As it has always been with us, the word 'stop' was on the tip on my tongue, but what came out was entirely different. Cupping his face between my hands, I swallowed the lump in my throat, unable to make myself fight him - or myself - anymore. It was a losing battle, anyways. Looking him straight in the eye, I whispered back, "don't stop, Caleb. Not now... Not ever." ****** At first glance, Ruth Brooke's new boss Caleb Cross gave the impression of an immature, flirty playboy. At second glance, her first impressions were unsurprisingly confirmed. But what was surprising was the absence of her usual reaction to a casanova. Instead of dismissing him for the sarcastic player that he was, Ruth unwillingly feels drawn to him. She has always judged a book by its cover. But she is soon to find out that Caleb Cross is someone who has a shiny, new cover on every page of his book. And it is up to her to peel it off and discover the real Caleb Cross in all his gore, without losing her heart in the process. // Hey readers! This is my first novel, so please bear with me.

It had been awhile when she last saw him. She remembered vividly the day they parted. Myra was glad to have signed those papers but it didn't change the facts that she was afraid of him. Although he had never done anything remotely hostile to her or ever been unkind, shivers ran down her spine. He looked the same. Stoic, expressionless and handsome as ever. But he just was't Myra's cup of tea.

Humanity’s immortal path has been severed. Absorbing spiritual energy directly was no longer an option. While humans despaired, ghosts thrived. With their connection to the other side, they grew stronger by the day, turning humans into nothing more than prey and livestock. But to every rule, there is an exception. "That’s why, my son, if you ever see the man with the straw hat… run as fast as you can." — Mamma Ghost. "But Mommy… aren’t humans weak? Aren’t they just our food?" — Ghost Boy. Mamma Ghost sighed, looking at her fatherless son with pity. "Ah, child… your father thought the same." Feng Fan never wanted this life. He never asked for this mission. But fate had other plans.

You know what’s unfair? For years, I dreamed about adventure—magic, monsters, heroes, all that good stuff. I imagined grand battles, epic quests, and worlds filled with mystery. And then the world actually decided to go full apocalypse. Did it give me a cool prophecy? A legendary weapon? A warning? An OP Skill? Nope. Just dumped me into chaos with nothing but my sharp wit and questionable survival instincts. Fine. I can play this game. Heck, I even got my own survival guide: Rule #1: Find a protagonist. Because let’s be honest, I am not main character material. Main characters are strong, serious, and burdened by fate. I, on the other hand, have spent my entire life dodging effort like it’s a contagious disease. Rule #2: If your protagonist has amnesia, you are screwed. Guess what? Mine does. The regressor, the guy who was supposed to have all the answers, keeps squinting at the apocalypse like it’s an old TV show he barely remembers. “This looks familiar…” Yes, genius, because we’re about to die in it! So now I have to think. Not normal thinking—fool’s logic. The kind of thinking that makes no sense but works anyway. And if that fails? I’ll talk my way out. Monsters? Negotiate. Villains? Trash-talk them until they cry. Death itself? Well, I’ll try to convince it that I’m not worth the effort. And if I die even then? At least I’ll go out proving that fools always find a way. ______ ___ _ [ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

In the clip, she clutched my boyfriend’s hand, her cheeks tinted with a shy blush. “I hope we end up at the same college,” Charles Spencer had said, his smile warm and his eyes never leaving her face.

A world where power tempts and corrupts, and the thin line separating mortals from monsters blurs amidst the flames of battle and rituals of blood. People worship gods whose presence often brings chaos and destruction, but also hope and protection. Arata, who remembers his previous life, faces a truth that even the gods cannot take from him - that in a world steeped in darkness, the real monsters are often humans themselves. He must balance on the edge of his own humanity to uncover answers that could either save him or doom him forever.

W świecie cieni i bogów prawda jest jedynie złudzeniem pod którą kryją się najciemniejsze sekrety. Świat, gdzie moc kusi i deprawuje, a cienka granica oddzielająca śmiertelnika od potwora rozmywa się w ogniu walki i rytuale krwi. Ludzie czczą bogów, których obecność często przynosi chaos i zniszczenie, ale także nadzieję i ochronę. Arata, który pamięta swoje poprzednie życie, staje wobec prawdy, której nawet bogowie nie mogą mu odebrać – że w świecie przesyconym mrokiem prawdziwymi potworami często bywają ludzie, a on sam musi balansować na krawędzi własnego człowieczeństwa, by odnaleźć odpowiedzi, które mogą go ocalić lub zgubić na zawsze.

Ren Kisaragi was just an ordinary high school student—until he saw the world glitch. A frozen pedestrian, a repeated motion, a moment where time itself stuttered. No one else noticed. No one else questioned it. But for Ren, it was the first crack in reality. Slowly, he begins to understand: the world is a game, a structured system governed by hidden laws. Yet, unlike the others—players and NPCs alike—Ren is the only one who knows. Armed with this knowledge and a mysterious, tattered book that seems to react to these distortions, he sets out to uncover the truth. But knowledge alone isn’t enough. Other players exist, moving through the world without realizing the game they’re trapped in. NPCs act according to scripts, yet some seem to break free in ways they shouldn’t. And as Ren digs deeper, he realizes something terrifying: The system isn’t broken. It’s watching him. And it doesn’t like rule-breakers. Now, Ren must navigate a world where reality itself can rewrite the rules. Because if he’s The Only Player of the Game—then he’s playing alone. And in a game like this, losing isn’t an option.
