Strange Lawyer

The Strange Groom's Cursed Bride

She was told that she was cursed. Perhaps she didn't need to be told. It was as clear as day. The only thing she wanted was MONEY. And she would do anything to get it. Even if it meant assuming the identity of her twin sister to change her fate. For one year. She didn't mind being a fake for one year and marrying the Wildfire Heir. He would barely be around, she had been told. 'He doesn't seem like much trouble,' she had also been told. 'The third son, on the other hand, is crazy. Stay away from him.' 'As for the second son... avoid him at all costs.' 'Do not cross his path.' But she did. She crossed his path. In fact, she went right into his path herself. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the groom was changed at the last minute. To the Second Son! He was as hot as he was cold. A terrifyingly sexy man who looked like the man she always saw in her dreams. Was this all merely a coincidence? But that wasn't all. She hadn't expected pretending to be her sister to be this tough. First of all, she missed a very important detail: her sister was a Lawyer. She, on the other hand, was only familiar with "You have the right to remain silent..." Secondly, her sister was picky. She was vegetarian. She didn't drink. And... she was bullied? And just maybe... there was more to her sudden disappearance. Her life was about to get much more complicated. Especially with those piercing blue eyes watching her every move like a predator on a mission. One year. Was the benefit worth it—worth putting her life on the line to deceive the Wildfires? She might die before the One Year was over.

Warden of Strange Stars

When a routine interstellar mission goes awry, Commander Sarah Chen finds herself thrown through a wormhole and marooned on Kepler-9, a verdant world at the fringes of an unknown star system. The planet's inhabitants - a diverse coalition of species ranging from the crystalline Lumini to the shape-shifting Morphs - initially view her with suspicion. But as she learns their ways and shares her own knowledge, Chen transforms from outsider to trusted ally. The peace is short-lived. Kepler-9, the smallest and most resource-rich planet in its system, has long been a target for aggressive neighboring worlds. When Chen discovers that another invasion looms on the horizon, she must unite the planet's fractious species into a cohesive fighting force. Each race brings unique abilities: the Lumini's natural energy manipulation, the Morphs' infiltration expertise, the towering Titans' raw strength, and the microscopic Swarm's collective intelligence. Drawing on her Earth military training and her growing understanding of alien warfare, Chen devises unconventional strategies that play to each species' strengths. As the invasion draws near, she knows that victory will require more than just tactical brilliance - it will demand trust, sacrifice, and the courage to forge a new kind of civilization where humans and aliens stand as equals. But even as she prepares for war, a question haunts her: was her arrival on Kepler-9 truly an accident, or part of something larger? The answer may determine not just the fate of her adopted home, but the future of interspecies relations across the galaxy.

The Strange God

There was once a being revered as a god in a universe with a trillion stars. How many of these stars could sustain life was unknown, but this universe no longer exists. When that universe disappeared, another took its place. It sprouted many new stars, and after a long time, life also followed. Many stars that established civilization still feel the echoes from the old universe. There was a legend that if an individual whispered a particular god's name and wished dearly, offering the most precious thing they had in return, it would grant them one wish. These wishes could be as simple as having food and shelter for a day or as outlandish as making someone fall in love with them or disappear from existence. This legend can be traced back to when sentient life forms developed ways of passing down verbal and non-verbal knowledge. The story comes in different versions, but the main message remains: one wish, one sacrifice, by one life. Strangely enough, this particular god received a series of peculiar wishes from different individuals across various stars in the new universe. Nameless god: “What is your wish?” Lucy: “To be reborn in a fantasy world with you as my father who loves me dearly until the end of my natural life.” Nameless god: ┬─┬ノ(ಠ_ಠノ) Mike: “To relive my life with you as my lovely little sister.” Nameless god: (╯°□°)╯( ┻━┻) Gabby: “Mom.” Nameless god: ┻━┻ ︵ ¯_(ᴼل͜ᴼ)_/¯ ︵ ┻━┻ Nameless god: “Who is whispering my name to these people across the universe, spreading it like a common cabbage on the roadside!? Come out, and I promise I will not do anything ungodly. Let's talk about life, hmmm!!!” Unbeknownst to this god, there was more to his myth than he knew. +++++ Schedule: Sorry, everyone.
