Toradora Ryuuji Cleaning

Living as the fifth daughter of a noble family, Amira found herself adrift in the fog of her home, neglected and overlooked by those she once called her own. Her days were spent in the solitude of the attic, a hidden oasis away from the bustling world outside. However, when the tumult of war erupts and she is thrust into the role of a truce offering between two formidable nations, she grapples with the uncertainty of surviving in a new kingdom known for its icy demeanor and ruthless nature. Will she navigate this foreign terrain and carve out a new existence she never fathomed? (Excerpt) "Clean it," Zyran commanded. "Yes, your Highness," the servant acknowledged with a respectful bow, ready to fetch the cleaning supplies. "Not you," Zyran interjected, causing the servant to freeze in confusion. "Her," he added, nodding in the direction of Anastasia, whose eyes widened in disbelief. Anastasia blinked rapidly, trying to process the situation. "Pardon?" she asked. "Clean the mess on the floor," Zyran instructed. The crowd started murmuring and Anastasia shifted uncomfortably on her knees. "That's the servant's job, not mine. Why should I? I don't think I understand what you are trying to say Prince Zyran. My father will never approve of this," Anastasia began only to be abruptly cut off by Zyran. "Don't make me repeat myself. I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I interfered with your task," Zyran warned. Anastasia's lips trembled as she fought to hold back her words. She knew Zyran's reputation for being ruthless, and she didn't want to make her situation any worse than it already was. "Get me the cleaning supplies," she instructed the servant, who was prepared to follow her command until Zyran interjected. "No one will help you," he declared. Anastasia's chest heaved with anger as she locked eyes with Amira, who was standing behind Zyran. She rose to her knees, intending to fetch the cleaning supplies herself, but Zyran stopped her once again. "Where do you think you're going?" he demanded. "To bring the bucket," she replied with a hint of annoyance, but she quickly reminded herself to remain composed. "I never asked you to stand up," Zyran stated. "Then how am I supposed to clean the floor?" she inquired. "Use your dress," Zyran replied. The onlookers in the crowd were visibly shocked, exchanging bewildered glances and murmurs as they witnessed the unfolding scene. Anastasia's cheeks turned crimson with embarrassment.

Ye Guichen felt helpless: Alright, I’ll come clean then...

This is the story of a young boy who steps into the world of immortals. If you enjoy fantasy and cultivation novels, give this one a shot. It starts off slow-paced, but I’ll do my best to keep it engaging and not drag things out to the point of frustration. The main character (MC) is a lone individual who avoids excessive social interactions, including friendships. This is my first novel, so please forgive any errors. I’m working hard to keep it as clean and polished as possible. Feel free to point out any mistakes in the comments—I truly appreciate it! And if you enjoy (or even dislike) the story, please consider leaving a review. Honest feedback of any kind helps me grow as a writer. (If anyone sends Power Stones or Golden Tickets, thank you in advance—it really means a lot to a newbie like me.) **cover art isn't mine***

Born with a rare albinism and cursed with crippling paralysis, Aethan Narok was destined to be nothing more than an extra in the grand household of the Narok family. While his elder siblings forged legacies as valiant Knights and esteemed scholars—serving the Kingdom and marrying into nobility—Aethan’s days passed in a constant repetition of feeding, cleaning, and silent resting. Yet fate has a strange way of revealing hidden power... Something long dormant was waiting to be awoken. On a particularly dark night, with the Blood Moon casting its crimson glow upon the world, a maid lunged at Aethan, her hands coiling around his neck with murderous intent. In that suffocating moment, as despair and weakness threatened to overwhelm him, something stirred deep within Aethan. The ancient blood of the Narok line answered his silent plea, and with a forceful, bloody rush, the dormant bloodline within him erupted. In the same sudden instant, he ended the maid's life—draining her blood and sealing his transformation. That transforming moment altered Aethan’s fate irreversibly. What had once been seen as weakness became the seed of unimaginable power—a spark that promised vengeance and a drive beyond anyone's imagination. Now, with the blood of his ancestors coursing through his veins, Aethan must confront a world that deems him both a cursed being and a harbinger of change. Will he master his awakened bloodline, or will it control and ultimately determine his fate?

Jake, a once cheerful class clown hiding deep emotional scars, finds himself homeless after years of failure and rejection—banished by his family, haunted by a past love, and unsure of his worth. Sleeping at bus stops and eating cheap meals, Jake’s path crosses with Alex, a silent, muscular gym owner carrying wounds of his own. Alex offers Jake more than just a roof—he gives him purpose. As they clean up the dusty gym and begin rebuilding their lives, the unlikely friendship blossoms into something powerful. Jake uses humor and heart to promote the gym, while Alex becomes the mentor Jake never had. Together, they begin healing from their pasts—until a passionate baker named Alya enters their world with dreams of sweetness and success. In a quiet corner of the city, through barbells, buttercream, and broken hearts, three people discover that sometimes, the recipe for healing starts with a little laughter, a few reps… and a whole lot of cake.

In a land buried under the weight of war and ruin, Vayle is just another scavenger—no lineage, no legacy, no destiny. He survives by stripping the dead, selling steel and bone for scraps, and walking the thin line between hunger and death. But the battlefield has a memory, and the dead don’t always stay quiet. When a dying soldier brands him with a mark he doesn’t understand, Vayle is thrust into a chain of events that neither fate nor prophecy had planned. No chosen blood runs in his veins. No hidden power stirs in his soul. Just iron in his hands, grit in his gut, and a name he refuses to bury. In a world where power is hoarded by kings and corpses feed the soil, Vayle must carve a place for himself—through violence, through silence, through the weight of his own choices. Because in a land of ash and bone, survival is earned. And nothing comes clean.

Warning! Addiction ahead. [Change in synopsis is in points below] ****** There are many things that I hate to the point of loathing. But what I hate most about this scenario is a hero who screws up. I mean sure, he can do whatever he wants. But all I'm asking is not to be naïve. This is a story about how I got transmigrated into the world of a novel, about how I tolerated the naïve MC whose actions were no better than a four years old even though he had regressed. And how I, the side character, or a small villain one could say, had to clean up the messes made by the hero and his party. ******** The synopsis might not be that compelling but I'm still learning folks. I hope you give this novel a read until the free chapters before you decide whether to drop it or keep reading it. Looking forward to working with all of you! Stay tuned! A few points: 1: The cover is A.I generated and it is completely mine. 2: The new update schedule is one chapter per day. But the option of bonus chapters is now available. 3: [100 power stones= 1 bonus chapter] [300 power stones= 2 bonus chapters] [5 golden tickets= 1 bonus chapter] 4: The free release ends at 50 chapters. 5: Please, Please, Please, Do not hesitate to point out my mistakes as they will help me improve my novel. Any suggestions that you have are also welcome. 6: Most importantly, do not forget to write a review. Whatever you think. Don't hesitate.

Having already died two lonesome deaths, this journey encompasses Dio's attempt at harmonizing his internal conflict. For someone with Perfect Memory, he had no clue regarding his past lives; rather, he used this ability as he pleased, sidelining the naturally defined drawbacks of such a gift. To never forget sounds enthralling at face value. But can a person exist in that manner? Every failure, every adversity and struggle replayed and flashed through his mind no matter how much he refused it. Previously known as: Recovering Oblivion. For those wondering, yes, this is reuploaded, there were some issues previously, but hopefully they're resolved now. I've cleaned up the chapters even further. Changes to the story were made in order to make it more coherent. Of course, no plot related changes were made. It was more of minor changes, names, etc. ~~~~~~~~~~ For any queries-mythical.rebirth105@gmail.com Discord- Lil Uzi Hurt#3988 Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

"You slept with me and ran? Fine! Let’s see how long you last!" Uh, yeah. No thanks. Yunfeng ran faster, heart pounding—until he skidded to a stop. Right in front of a half-rotten zombie. "Oh, come on!" Before he could even process his impending doom, the thing lunged. His life flashed before his eyes. Then—WHACK. A massive axe took the zombie’s head clean off. And just like that, Muchen was grabbing his collar, hauling him up like a ragdoll. "You’re not dying," Muchen said, looking way too smug for someone who just saved his life. "Not today. Not anytime soon." Yunfeng barely got his breath back before Muchen dropped the biggest bomb ever. "Because we’re having a baby." Wait. What?! Yunfeng clutched his stomach. "H-How do you know?!" "You KNEW?!" Muchen shook him like a damn rattle. "And you still ran? Take responsibility, you bastard! We made a life!" Well. Shit. There was officially no running from this.

To clean or not to clean, is that even a question? Pavlo was born in a relatively poor family. Yet, thanks to his vivid intelligence and innate energy that always pushed him for the greater heights he became... a mobster. As soon as he came of age, the local organisation took him under his wings, quickly recognising his talents. Before the first digit of his age changed or even came close to turning four, he was already responsible for managing the vast financial empire of his new family! But everything has its own price. In the organisation like his, superiors always had to feel the breath of their subordinate on their necks. Sadly for Pavlo, what he felt was not the breath, but the cold steel of the autonomous truck that smashed his body into bits. A pitiful end sprinkled with the salty realisation that said truck was a product developed by the company that Pavlo used to launder the organisation money in the first place! Just like revolution eats its own children, so did Pavlo's investment claim its creator's life. But how could he see just a set of primitive bars instead of the glorious gate of the heaven... or more precisely, the stinky depths of the hell? And most importantly, what the hell are those flashing letters that seemed to have some majestic aura to them? WHAT DOES THE ULTIMATE CLEANING SYSTEM EVEN MEAN?

Jordan Miles is a twenty-something slacker with zero motivation, a resume that gathers more dust than attention, and a sleep schedule that could only be called criminal. His dreams of a better life? Just that—dreams. Until one morning, he wakes up before noon... and gets a pop-up notification: +5 XP: Early Riser I – You woke up before noon.

From lazy loner to disciplined dynamo, this is the slow grind to self-actualization—with side quests, skill trees, and plenty of coffee. He’s not trying to save the world. Just his own.

Deep in the Void a universe called the Dream Universe made up of planets called the Realms. A place where all those who cultivate and who strive to ascend into Cosmic God status is the goal. Here the Dream Universe is governed by a Cosmic being known simply as the World. The World crowns kings to rule and chooses only those with the potential to join the Primordial regime. Every hundred years each who are crowned are given something called the King's Test. Since the World does not personally take part in this test they summon a champion from the Realms with the same potentials as the Kings. They are King Slayer warriors with strong power and skill chosen to either die showing a king's potential, or kill the king to make way for a new one. This particular test is different. This is an eradication of King's who have abused power and caused strife among the realms erupting into a civil war. The newest King Slayer is one who is not only powerful, but carries a Thread of Necessity with a destiny to bring great change to the Realms. All the World wants is for the wicked Kings to fall and clean the slate. The King Slayer wants power and freedom. But both don’t realize how different this Test will be. Author Note: First volume I throw you into the story. I wrote it where it builds and the world around it builds as it goes along. You learn the back story of the Slayer in volume 2. I wanted to stand out and immerse you into the world I’m creating.
