Nice Life

Massé Life

I used to be disenchanted of my own hands. Not in some weird psychological way—though maybe it was psychological, who knows. I mean literally afraid that my hands would betray me at the worst possible moment. Which they did. Constantly. Job interviews, presentations, first dates. Anytime people were watching and waiting for me to perform, my fingers would go numb and my brain would just... shut off. Like someone pulled the power cord. I called it ATSM—Anxiety That Stiffens Muscles. Stupid name, but I'm a programmer. I like labeling things, even when I can't fix them. The worst part? It killed my one real passion. I used to love billiards. Was actually decent at it, back in college. But after... well, after something happened that I don't really want to get into right now, I couldn't hold a cue stick without falling apart. So I did what any rational person would do: I gave up. Got a safe job, worked long hours, convinced myself I didn't need hobbies anyway. That plan worked great for about fifteen years. Then I made the mistake of running my mouth on TikTok, challenging the Queen of Nine-Ball to a match. Because apparently when you're having a midlife crisis, the smart move is to embarrass yourself in front of the best billiards player in Southeast Asia. This plot is about what happened after that. It's about meeting people who refused to let me quit, learning to fail in public without dying, and discovering that sometimes the only way forward is to go back and face the thing that broke you in the first place. It's also about billiards, obviously. But mostly it's about being brave enough to suck at something you love, in front of people who matter.

The Reborn Witch had a nice ‘Tea Time’ with the Dragon Queen today

[ Hiatus ] [Additional tag: GL, Yuri, Gender bender, skippable smut, Only Wholesome Romance, Overpowered MC & FL, fast romance] ———————- Centuries of Human-Demon War, countless deaths and warcries, as people treat deaths like daily breadcrumbs....... But now? With a single sway of her staff, Alice the Hero ended the war in less than two years, a devastation that was (traumatizingly) sung through lyres and riddles, forever a tale of a generation that foretold the hero's overpowering journey of the demonkind. Alas this story does not follow the Hero. Following the same timeline, we had Alice's father and mentor, Demond, a reincarnated, retired old mage who lived in a faraway forest. He is a survivor from another recent war named Dragonsong Battlefront, only ended by his courtesy of executing Adalon the Tyrant, whose flames drowned nations and clans in dragonfire, slaughtering countless millions alongside his Dragonkind. Upon listening to Alice's invitation for a Peace Banquet, the Tyrant Slayer Demond grumbly, but happily prepared for his reunion with his daughter. Yet a looming shadow of the tyrant's daughter awaited, for the Honourless Peacekeeper, the Sky Dragon Adrei, asked for Demond's head in exchange for his 'selfish' execution of the Tyrant, as the final resolution to the grudges of the Dragonsong Battlefront. And.........look at where we are now: “…Adrei, this old man requests that you to feed me properly.” “Oh? Is it not a request from your daughter to ‘properly’ take care of your…unique needs?” “I get it, but my mouth is up here, you perverted dragon!” “Ah it seems the wind is blowing quite nicely today…” ———— Discord Server: https://discord.gg/ZnjpQ499Kt Author’s note: The first 17 chapters would be a bit heavy to build the Yuri for a climatic chapter 19, as well as establishing themes but romance is ONLY 1v1 here!

Dreaded life

In a world where the line between reality and nightmare blurs, Reiyan Arasaka is a boy haunted by shadows. The city he calls home pulses with neon lights and ceaseless noise, but beneath its glittering surface lies a hidden world of demons, ancient legacies, and forgotten gods. Reiyan’s life is upended when he returns home one night to find his family’s estate engulfed in flames and his parents brutally murdered by a monstrous creature from the abyss. As Reiyan grapples with his grief and the horrifying realization that demons are real, he is saved by a mysterious silver-haired man who wields powers beyond human comprehension. This enigmatic figure, known only as Kael, reveals that Reiyan is the last heir of the Aetheris bloodline, a family bound to an ancient pact with the supernatural. The demons that destroyed his home are not random—they are hunting him, drawn by the dormant power within his blood. Thrust into a world of darkness and danger, Reiyan must learn to harness his newfound abilities to survive. Guided by Kael, he discovers that the Aetheris legacy is both a blessing and a curse: it grants him the power to fight back against the demons, but it also marks him as a target for forces far more sinister. As Reiyan delves deeper into the mysteries of his lineage, he uncovers a centuries-old war between humanity and the abyss—a war that threatens to consume the world. But the demons are not his only enemies. Within the shadows lurk rival factions, each with their own agendas, and Reiyan must navigate a treacherous web of alliances and betrayals. As he struggles to control the volatile power within him, he begins to question whether he is destined to save humanity—or destroy it. Dread is a gripping tale of loss, resilience, and the fight for survival in a world where the line between hero and monster is razor-thin. With its blend of heart-pounding action, supernatural intrigue, and emotional depth, this novel will keep readers on the edge of their seats from the first page to the last.
