The Alien Within Grinwall is no ordinary country, and Riverdale Academy is no ordinary school. Both are covert battlegrounds where powerful beings, hidden identities, and secret alliances shape the destiny of those who inhabit them. Among these is Tessa Caldwell, a Kaelrian alien with unmatched speed and a mysterious, water-like fragrance. Adopted by her teacher, Ms. Caldwell, Tessa tries to blend in, but her distinct blue eyes betray her origins to those who know where to look. Her life changes when Adrian, a fellow Kaelrian with a fiery aura and god-like confidence, arrives at Riverdale. Their connection is undeniable, but it attracts dangerous attention. When Adrian’s alien nature is revealed during a dramatic hospital incident, chaos erupts. Government agents are dispatched, and Principal Hammond is forced to defend Riverdale’s reputation, as students react with fear, admiration, and jealousy. Bridget Mills, Tessa’s rival, mocks her defeat by claiming she lost to an "alien," while others, like Oxlade and Karl, recount how Adrian saved them. Yet the growing tension at Riverdale is only a glimpse of greater dangers. The SSG organization, a sinister force with eyes on Tessa and Adrian, is joined by an even darker figure: Ikehara, the shadow of the sun god, and a loyal follower of Rhemon, a devil with a grudge against Solaris the true sun god, whose plans threaten the survival of the Kaelrians loyal to Solaris and Lunara (moon goddess). In the midst of a high-stakes escape from SSG, Tessa and Adrian encounter the mysterious Rhemonic people. The Rhemonics, regarding Tessa as the successor to their moon goddess, worship her, forging a powerful alliance. This new found bond brings new challenges, including a dangerous quest to gather ingredients to awaken the Rhemonic people from their limited lands and blocked memories, a curse wrought by Rhemon—a devilish force once thought to be their salvation. As Rhemon rises, threatening to control both Kaelrians and Rhemonics alike, Tessa and Adrian’s mission becomes a race against time. Along the way, Tessa uncovers her heritage as the daughter of Lunara, the moon goddess, and Solaris, the sun god. Adrian, the son of Solaris and a maid, shares a complex, divine bond with Tessa, yet both are haunted by the legacies they inherit. Amidst this conflict, Ashley Duve, a woman who shares the bed and secrets with Rhemon, fools Tessa into believing she was the moon goddess, and she entered her conscious thought, gradually eroding it away while she appears helpful and wise and seemingly innocent, Ashley’s actions soon reveal her true agenda. She uses her powers to impersonate the moon goddess, taking over Tessa’s body, manipulating events to help Ikehara gather the ingredients needed to awaken Rhemon. As Ashley’s allegiance becomes clear, Tessa and Adrian realize they cannot trust anyone, not even those closest to them. Against overwhelming threats, Tessa and Adrian must fight not only to protect each other but also to save their world. Grappling with questions of identity, loyalty, and love, their journey unfolds across various chapters of betrayal, alliances, and epic confrontations with cosmic powers. Only by unlocking the potential within themselves can Tessa and Adrian hope to survive this battle, protecting the very essence of their people and the world.

One would say that transmigrating to a book sound like a fantasy, however to Aera, it became a nightmare when she woke up in an unknown world even when she hasn't died yet. With an unexpected turnout, her life was hanging by a thin thread. Aera was presented with an option-either she goes back to her world with her memory erased or enter the other world, and comes back with the memory intact to have her revenge. Never did she expect of choosing the worst villain of all. A character in a book where she killed the Empress and her unborn child. Worst, the male lead was reborn time after time with his memory intact. His grudge still hung on torturing the villainess. Even more worst, the ML was a split image of her long-time crush. ----- "Do you hate me that much?" As soon as the question was raised, a table lamp flew past through the said person, smashing against the wall behind him. "More than enough to kill you right now." The female figure responded with nothing but hatred and disgust in her tone. Her jewel eyes that glow under the dark never left her gaze on the other male person who was sitting on her opposite. ----- The male lead wasn't the only one Aera had to put a guard on but even other characters when one after the other began to make an appearance.

Dear Readers, Before diving into the story synopsis, let me introduce you to an exciting world of interconnected tales, each exploring different themes and ultimately coming together in a grand narrative. Welcome to the Shadowverse: An Epic Interconnected Universe I’m thrilled to introduce you to the Shadowverse, an expansive and experimental universe where stories and characters are deeply interconnected. Within this universe, I’ve created three distinct narratives, each with its own rich journey and character development. While each story concludes with a proper and satisfying ending, they all contribute to a grander narrative that reaches its peak in the final chapters of Rebirth of Hope. 1. Rebirth of Hope (Fantasy and Adventure: New Tropes) In a fractured world, powerful bloodlines clash in a deadly tournament to rebuild the Alderson Disk, Earth’s last hope for survival. As alliances shift and rivalries intensify, a prophecy looms, foretelling a savior who will guide humanity’s fate. The future of Earth hangs in the balance as the tournament unfolds. 2. Shadow Ascension (Villain) Delve into the rise of darkness within the Shadowverse as ambitious figures seize power through any means necessary. This story explores the motivations and machinations of those who will stop at nothing to reshape the world in their image, setting the stage for an epic confrontation. 3. The Obsidian Voyage (System) Embark on a daring journey across uncharted realms as explorers seek the lost secrets of an ancient civilization. The stakes are high, as the knowledge they uncover could either save their world or doom it, with every decision impacting the broader Shadowverse. Throughout these tales, you’ll discover references and connections between the stories, which I will highlight in the chapters where they appear. These connections weave a complex and engaging web that leads to a thrilling conclusion in the Shadowverse. I hope you enjoy this new experimental concept as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it. Your support and feedback are invaluable as we explore this universe together! Welcome to the Shadowverse where every story matters, and where your adventure is just beginning. Story Synopsis: In a future where Earth lies in ruins, the destruction of the Alderson Disk has left the planet shattered, with half of it uninhabitable. The remaining half is divided into 14 nations, each ruled by powerful bloodlines with unique abilities tied to ancient weapons. These bloodlines have governed their lands for centuries, but survival is becoming increasingly difficult as resources dwindle and the wasteland encroaches. The only hope lies in a prophecy that foretells the Reborn Disk, a tournament to choose a warrior who will guide humanity in reconstructing the Alderson Disk. However, there is a lingering fear that the prophecy might be wrong, and the chosen warrior could be the very force of pure evil that leads to destruction instead. Thorne Malrath, a warrior from the Malrath bloodline, is skeptical of this prophecy but finds himself thrust into the tournament, where the stakes are higher than ever. Beyond the shattered lands live the Outlanders, non-bloodline survivors who have mastered science and technology. They seek to rebuild the Alderson Disk for their own survival, leading to a clash of ideologies with the bloodline warriors. As both groups race to gather the vast resources needed, they must confront ancient secrets, deadly creatures, and the vast challenges that lie ahead. The story follows Thorne, King Tiberius, Olivia, Garek,Lucien, and other powerful warriors as they navigate a world where science and magic collide. They must unite with the Outlanders to rebuild the Alderson Disk, but mistrust and old grudges threaten their fragile alliance. With the future of Earth hanging in the balance, the final battle will determine whether the world is reborn or falls into chaos.

Author: Lone Raut Synopsis: When I was alive, I was just another name on a serial killer's twisted list—who targeted mens of culture. Death should have been the end. But instead, I woke up in the dark, chaotic world of Saint's Odyssey, a fantasy novel I'd once read with disdain. This isn't just any story.

Well, they’re wrong. This is my story now. And I won’t stop until I’ve rewritten every line. Watch as I shatter the hero’s image, unravel the gods' schemes, and conquer this world they thought was untouchable. Let them call me a villain—I’ll wear it like a crown. In a tale where every battle is a step toward conquest, and every betrayal is just another play in the game, one thing is clear: I didn’t choose this war, but I’m going to win it. Where the rules don’t matter, and the script is mine to flip.
