“Compassion. What is compassion? Is it strength, or weakness. Is it mercy, or a half a measure? Is it a sign of naivety or experience? Or perhaps, it is one of those things that tread the line of ruin and preservation, it’s true meaning known only to gods. I wonder, what do you think of compassion?” “Compassion? For me, it is like a sword. One which you wield from the blade, not the grip.” ……………. Reshi’s life was not a happy one. His childhood was one of poverty, and a family barely keeping it together. It wasn’t a particularly fun childhood, so he decided to end it early. How? Well, he joined the army, where he was turned from child to weapon, expertly wielded by the republic. There he had met many great people, and he had seen them die also. A terrible life really. One that he wasn’t too sad to say goodbye to. After speaking to an extremely convincing deity, he decided to cash in his death for a new life, a glorious one from one of his favourites new novels. The life of a spoiled, and more importantly, rich young noble. Which he had been given….for all of thirty minutes. He had been placed in the body of a hated antagonist, one that only existed in a flashback backstory. His fate was destine to be pathetic, his end pathetic, loved and remembered by no one. But Reshi had already gone through that once. So this time he was determined to change things. To do something about his shitty fate, so that for the first time in two lives, he could carve out a little corner of peace for himself in the world, and maybe even find some happiness to go along with it.

Synopsis: Shen Waqing is dead. Not metaphorically—literally. After falling from a twelve-story building, she wakes up in a void darker than her high school report card. She’s cold, alone, and staring into the blank screen of death itself… until a mechanical voice shatters the silence. Welcome to the Underworld Death System. The offer? A second chance at life. A 90% chance of soul obliteration. A mission to enter different story-worlds and resolve the regrets of cannon fodder characters destined to be forgotten. Her response? "No thanks. I'd rather stay dead." Unfortunately, No wasn't an answer the system forces her into a soul agreement, and drops her into world after world where the “Main Character” shines and she’s supposed to… fix their emotional baggage? All Shen Waqing wants is to lie flat like a salted fish, but fate seems determined to shove her into center stage. In a system-glitched multiverse filled with tragic backstories, unpredictable missions, and overly dramatic protagonists, can a depressed, death-avoidant girl just coast her way through and maybe—accidentally—save a few lives? Optional Tagline: > “I didn’t sign up to be the heroine. I just wanted a nap.”

There, standing on a mirrored void, his brother looked at him and said: “I’m a regressor. I’ve regressed 769 times… just for you.” He looked at Naoki with eyes that held the weight of forgotten eras, and spoke in a voice that echoed with the whisper of ancient gods Then, his brother cast him into a black hole. Reborn as Aether von Noctvain, heir to one of the empire's Seven Great Families, Naoki awakens in a world of ancient bloodlines, magic, and ruthless ambition. Before he can make sense of it, his fiancée storms in, determined to claim his heart. But Aether didn't come for love. He came to walk the path his brother forged, until fate cast him aside.

Elias "Grim" Kingsley, a nine-year-old orphan with a hardened heart and sharp tongue, dies alone from pneumonia in an overcrowded orphanage. Known for his perpetual scowl and biting remarks, he's labeled a "problem child" by caretakers and "damaged goods" by potential adopters. Years of rejection have built thick armor around his young heart. In death, he encounters the God of Balance who offers him a second chance at life in a different world—this time as Grim Van Ambrose, son of a noble house. Balance explains that every soul deserves to know love and connection, something Elias was cruelly denied in his first life. Promised the family and belonging he never experienced, Grim begins his new life only to suffer an immediate tragedy: his mother dies moments after his birth. This cruel twist of fate reinforces his belief that loss is inevitable, leaving him with a distant father and the mysterious voice of a "Guidance Assistant" in his head. As Grim grows into his new identity, he struggles with his dual nature—the emotional scars of his past life bleeding into his present one. His difficult personality and sharp tongue remain, now paired with noble privilege and expectations. Despite his outward brashness, he carries the deep wounds of his first life and the fresh loss that welcomed him into his second. What begins as one orphan's second chance evolves into an epic journey through a world of ancient beasts, elemental magic, and deadly political intrigue. As Grim uncovers the truth about the Ambrose Clan's fall from grace and the conspiracy that framed them for treason, he faces increasingly dangerous adversaries—both human and monstrous. His quest for revenge against those who destroyed his family's legacy will challenge him to master forbidden techniques, forge unexpected alliances, and ultimately decide whether to rebuild the Ambrose Clan as it was, or transform it into something entirely new. In a realm where power determines survival and ancient secrets lurk beneath noble facades, Grim must learn that sometimes the greatest battles aren't fought with swords, but with the choices that define who we truly are.

Lancelot Haier came from a dynasty of politicians who had ruled with tyranny and oppression. Despite those origins, he despised his family and was willing to help the citizens who had long suffered under their rule. However—before he even had the chance to change his country, the people revolted. His entire family was executed, and he was killed along with them. In his final moments, he wished for a second life—one where he could redeem himself and carry the sins of his bloodline. Unexpectedly, that wish was granted. He was reincarnated into another world as the crown prince of the Kingdom of Aragon. But in this world, everything felt backward. The country was ruled by an absolute monarch. Feudalism was the norm. Technology resembled that of the late 1700s. Fortunately, in his past life, he had earned degrees in both mechanical engineering and political science—knowledge he once hoped to use to reform his homeland. Now, it seemed he would use them here instead. He would use his modern knowledge to transform the lives of his people, industrialize his territory, gain the upper hand in technology, and form alliances with foreign nations—all while navigating the treacherous waters of internal affairs and politics. P.S While Reincarnated as the Crown Prince draws inspiration from historical settings, political systems, and technologies of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, this work is entirely fictional. All characters, governments, names, and events—although some may resemble real-world history—are products of the author’s imagination or are used in a fictionalized, altered form for narrative purposes. This novel is not a historical account. It should not be interpreted as a factual representation of any real monarch, nation, revolution, or political figure. Lancelot Haier, his backstory, and the alternate version of different kingdoms portrayed here are entirely original creations. The inclusion of familiar concepts like feudalism, industrialization, and political reform serves the plot and world-building, not historical documentation. Readers seeking accuracy in history are encouraged to consult verified academic sources. This story is a creative work meant for entertainment, character development, and speculative exploration of “what-if” scenarios rooted in alternate history. Thank you for reading, and I hope you will enjoy the journey.

Throughout realms and realities, a world was formed in silence yet grew to become the greatest ever known. In a world forged not by divine hands, but by intelligence itself, knowledge is the blade, and the mind is the battlefield. For the first time in all existence, humanity rose. Not by faith, nor magic, but by thought alone. And in doing so, they stood equal to those aboves. Fearing they would be devoured by the hungering eyes beyond, a great watcher from outside decided to bend the sky into a barrier and create a Gate connecting the outside world to the one within. And finally, a guardian was created to protect humanity. With that, the world was sealed. Until the day they could protect themselves, the world must be protected. WARNING: This story contains graphic violence, psychological trauma, and a power system that probably will melt your brain. Read at your own risk.

A pirate named Waverly Leviathan with resemblance to Poseidon often stays. Daji's nephew often stays and calls himself Sun Wukong. A novelist and screenwriter, Athena, is working on a masterpiece. Then there's the CEO named Odin and his twin sons named Loki. Could these mythological connections be more than coincidence?

SYNOPSIS: B Empire In a fractured world once divided by race, power, and pride, four legendary kings united the realms of East, West, North, and South to forge a singular, formidable alliance: the B Empire—a symbol of hope, equilibrium, and shared destiny. A century has transpired since that founding. The ethereal capital of La Mer stands above the Central Land, powered by magitek and safeguarded by ancient seals. Humans, beastkin, vampires, elementals, and hybrids coexist in a precarious equilibrium. However, peace is an ephemeral concept. Beneath the surface, dormant adversaries resurface, forgotten monsters emerge, and new heirs grapple with their place in a world still recovering from conflict. From the desolate outskirts of Asya to the mystical forests of the West, from the icy northern gates to the submerged temples of the South, a new generation ascends—each bearing secrets, legacies, or vengeance. Among them are: * Solla, an orphan from the East possessing a latent gift and a fervent spirit. * Doniglao and Ariane, centaurian siblings torn between tradition and rebellion. * Van Staden, a fugitive prince seeking liberation from royal constraints. *Nate, a tiger warriors aspiring to ensure his better future. *Suthra, a Riverlanders seeking to escape a tragic fate. * Eula, a rogue vampire-hunter ambivalent between blood and purpose. * And Mr. Wils, an enigmatic entity privy to excessive knowledge and susceptible to excessive mistrust. As the foundations of the old world begin to crumble, these unlikely heroes must make a pivotal decision: Will they uphold the legacy of the Four Kings… or dismantle it and construct a new Empire in its stead?

The story is about an author named Van, who is famous for his amazing works. Unfortunately, he dies without reason before he could finish the ending of a novel he was working on. When he opens his eyes, Van meets a [God] who reincarnates him into his unfinished novel and asks him to create the ending of the story through his own hard work. Van realizes how unlucky he is, as he has been reborn as the main villain of the novel. Aware of his dangerous fate, Van works hard to become stronger, using his knowledge as the author of the novel to create his own ending on a path full of obstacles, danger, threats, and death.

He was the heir to Death—hated by the living, his very presence enough to kill. And yet, few valued life more than him. Perhaps that's why Niko wandered the dying world, giving life to those who had none, helping them set things right and finish their stories. He filled the voids in others' hearts...and yet, his own remained forever hollow. Until one day, a quiet soul came seeking his help. Thus, they departed on a wondrous and treacherous journey to save countless souls— —including each other's. -------- What To Expect: - A high fantasy, post apocalyptic world with world building that isn't too shallow but not too overwhelming either. - A story that mixes tragic backstories, visceral scenes and heavy themes with lighthearted character interactions, emotional growth and heartfelt character moments. - Silent characters who interact with small, meaningful actions and subtle gestures instead of words. - A protagonist that wields great power but risks a heavy price upon its every use, often forcing him to get creative about when and how he uses it. -------- Content Notice: This story contains themes of grief, loss, healing, and the burden of power. While it also features lighthearted and heartwarming moments, there are occasional intense and disturbing scenes, as well as some horror elements. Please read at your own pace. (Cover art by me :D )

In the fractured realm of Aetherfall, the world teeters on the edge of rebirth or ruin. Ancient spirits stir. Kingdoms bleed. And five souls stand at the heart of it all—each bound by a past they did not choose, and a future they were never promised. Ezekiel Rhea never asked to be cast into this world. Still in his own body, still carrying the weight of who he was, he must navigate a land of spirits, prophecy, and war—where a silent bond with a primordial force begins to unravel not only fate, but himself. Luna Gadriel, born of mortal flesh and celestial blood, is destined for greatness. But divinity comes with a cost, and as war spreads, she must decide if she will become a savior—or another weapon forged by the will of others. Vanessa Van Vokhsina, the fallen vampire princess of a lost kingdom, wanders a world that has no place for her. Hunted, cursed, and alone, she seeks more than vengeance: she seeks a reason to keep living. Hanzel Gelliremo, the child of prophecy, was born to end the War of Times… or begin it anew. Torn between monstrous destinies, his every step risks tipping the balance between hope and extinction. Bartholomeow Tanchiniban, a soldier sworn to the Kingdom of Peace, watches as the ideals he’s sworn to uphold rot from the inside. Plagued by guilt, yet too afraid to resist, his path ends in the hands of the very person who forces him to question everything. Their fates collide across a war-torn land of gods and monsters, where spirit contracts, cursed bloodlines, and forgotten truths weave a tale of rebellion, redemption, and ruin. Not all of them will survive. Not all of them are meant to. But all of them will burn their mark into history.

Ia dibuang tanpa nama. Tapi takdir mencatatnya dengan tinta bangsawan. Jatmiko tumbuh di gang sempit Kediri, di bawah atap bocor keluarga miskin. Tak ada yang tahu: bocah itu mewarisi darah keluarga ningrat Eropa—keturunan Van Laar, nama yang dahulu menggetarkan ruang istana dan diplomasi. Di balik tatapannya yang tenang, tersembunyi kecerdasan manipulatif, daya analisis setajam belati, dan jiwa yang tak pernah menunjuk—hanya menuntun. Setiap hinaan dibalas diam. Setiap konflik dikembalikan dengan seni menghancurkan tanpa teriak. Tapi ketika rahasia besar dunia atas mulai menampakkan diri—politik, bisnis, pengkhianatan, darah, dan takhta—Jatmiko tidak datang untuk meminta tempat. Ia datang untuk mengambilnya. Karena darah Laar tak mengenal tunduk. Ia hanya tahu: mengatur.

Five ex-cons, one rundown food van, and a dream to go legit. Alright, alright. Gather 'round. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, young and old. Here’s the gist: What does a former soldier, a runaway noble princess, a delinquent highschool student, a recently released prisoner and a former villager all have in common? They all need to eat and money to stay alive, whether directly or indirectly. However, the five of them as you can see have no skills of the culinary arts. So with their rents, jobs, families or whole livelihood on the line to keep their simple shop going, do you think they would handle this like normal lived individuals? Nope. They've already survived a Civil War, so whats a simple shop going to do them? However, just like their shadows, their pasts all haunt and follow them. Will their past traumas? Relationships? Friends? Enemies? Family? Or society decide their course of action? One solved murder doesn’t stop all crime.  One war doesn’t disappear into thin air.  One breakup doesn't mean to remain single. One smile doesn’t mean that all is fine. These five have a job to do. One job. Get the shop running again. Even if it means pretending to be nobility or dancing with nothing but body paint with native tribes. They have a mission to complete. Five pairs of Eyes to see this mission through. Five secrets to be revealed. Which eyes will you follow?

After her fairy-tale marriage to Duke Kilian van Veldemere, Duchess Lysanne begins to change. She withdraws from court. Whispers spread. And then—she vanishes. Each disappearance leaves her more distant, more haunted, as if carrying memories she refuses to speak aloud. As love turns cold and tensions rise, the duchess makes a decision that will alter not only her future, but his. In a world where loyalty can be deadly and even time is not what it seems, Lysanne and Kilian must face the truth of who they are, what broke between them… and what might still be saved.

Welcome to NecroCorp – Where War is Always in Stock! "Now with 15% off main battle tanks, because peace is bad for business." Hello, traveler! Looking for a bone-forged sword? A modular mana cannon? Perhaps... a discounted main battle tank for your next kingdom raid? Oh wait, you're not a customer, you're a reader. Right. This is probably where I give you my "tragic backstory." Fine. I used to be human. Then I died. Now I'm a Lich with a factory in a dead dungeon, a skeleton workforce that doesn't need lunch breaks, salaries, and a magical system that rewards me for selling stuff. So, I did what any sane undead would do: I started an arms corporation. Now I sell weapons to orcs, goblins, elves, humans, anyone with a grudge and a pile of magic stones. Need siege engines? Got 'em. Crossbows that reload themselves? Yup. Flamethrower golems? In development. But here's the trick: you can’t sell weapons if there’s no war. So when the world started calming down... well, I may have encouraged a few border skirmishes. For marketing purposes. Nothing personal. War drives demand, after all. So, if you're here for drama, explosions, undead capitalism, and morally questionable business strategies wrapped in bone and steel, you’ve come to the right dungeon. Just don’t ask about the warranty. There isn’t one that lived to tell and ask about it.

When Ethan died, he expected either an afterlife or nothing at all. What he didn’t expect was waking up in Eternal Dominion, the most popular VRMMO in the world, but not as a player. Instead, he’s stuck as a nameless NPC in a medieval high-fantasy world filled with dungeons, guilds, and legendary heroes. That would’ve been weird enough, but there’s one problem. The game hasn’t even launched yet. Even worse, he hasn’t just woken up a few years before launch, he’s thousands of years in the past, back when the events of the game’s lore were still unfolding. He’s in the age of legendary wars, fallen empires, and forgotten gods—an era players were only supposed to read about in history books. At first, Ethan thinks it’s just an elaborate backstory running on AI scripts… until he realizes something terrifying. The NPCs aren’t just scripted, they’re alive. They have real thoughts, real emotions, and real fears. And the world itself? It’s not just code. It bleeds, it evolves, and it remembers. As an unkillable anomaly in this living, breathing world, Ethan has all the time in existence to do whatever he wants. Whether it’s trolling ancient heroes, gambling on wars that haven’t been written yet, or taking naps in dungeons before they become raid bosses. But as history approaches the era players will one day enter, Ethan starts to notice things that shouldn’t be happening. Events are shifting. Unwritten dangers are emerging. And something, or someone, knows he doesn’t belong. Gods, developers, and power-hungry rulers alike demand answers: Who is he? Why can’t he die? And why does he know the future of a world that was never supposed to be real? Unfortunately for them, Ethan has only one goal in mind— Live as lazily as possible, forever.

After breaking his back working with the Hero's Party, Chris wound up facing a dog's death. 'Please, let me be born into a wealthy family in my next life…' When he next awoke, he was the young master of an immensely wealthy family.

There were only two years left until Christian was fated to meet an untimely death. And even if he managed to survive that long, he still needed to stop the end of the world. Chris had only one option if he wanted to survive and enjoy a life of wealth and luxury: seize control of the Dark Magic Clan and become a Demon King himself.

Twenty years ago, my little sister was kidnapped by another world's summoning spell. Twenty years later, I’ve finally hijacked my way into that world! And now, I'm searching for her. Angels? Demons? Gods? Or even Fate itself? So what? I don't fucking care! I will find my sister, even if I have to tear this world apart! ___________________________________ Read this story if you are looking for: - A genuinely smart main character who wasn't a loser in his past life and doesn't get spoon-fed too much superpowers or cheats. He becomes strong through sheer willpower, overcoming hardship, and outsmarting impossible odds, winning seemingly unwinnable fights. - A harem, but not the typical kind. The main character won't chase any girl like a literal simp. Also, the girls aren’t flat, two-dimensional tropes either. Each has depth, distinct personalities, powerful backstories and real emotional impact on the MC. Also, the MC is mature, so expect meaningful and serious relationships, not the cringey, child-like and meaningless romance drama. - A thrilling and well-thought-out plot filled with betrayal, deception, mystery, and plot twists at every turn. Friends become enemies, enemies become allies. Even those who seem trustworthy may later reveal their true, wicked nature. In this ruthless world, everyone has their own ideals and goals, and the line between good and evil isn’t always clear. - No yuri. - A unique blend of isekai, western-style cultivation, and even regression plot.

> "Diez nombres. Diez vidas que me arrebataron todo. Ya no soy el niño débil que sollozaba en el rincón del aula. Mi tío me enseñó a convertirme en un arma. Y una por una, esas sombras van a desaparecer... aunque las manos que me arrastren al abismo sean las mías".

When childhood friends Ravi and Sneha (nicknamed Aami) reunite after years apart, it’s not for a grand reunion or romance—it’s to keep a promise made one Diwali night long ago: to travel together and see the world, starting with the unexplored beauty of Northeast India. Ravi, still grieving the recent loss of his mother, finds himself numb, directionless, and buried under the weight of unspoken sadness. Sneha, grounded, funny, and full of warmth, pushes him to keep the promise. Together, they pack into a van—with cycles strapped to the back—and begin a summer journey across lush landscapes, rain-soaked villages, waterfalls, hidden festivals, and kitchens full of unforgettable food. From Ziro Valley to Shillong, Aizawl to Loktak Lake, they meet strangers with quiet stories, eat way too many momos, argue over chilli chutneys, and slowly come to terms with the lives they’ve lived—and the people they’ve lost. But this isn’t a romance. It’s about friendship, healing, and the spaces grief and laughter occupy together. It's a journey through memory, through childhood, and through the places that still feel like home—even when home is gone. As Ravi comes to understand what his late mother’s quiet strength meant, and what it means to really keep a promise, the road finally leads them to a still, shining lake where everything comes full circle.
