Vox Akuma Flustered

In a world where strength defines destiny, a powerless boy once dreamed of becoming a hero. But dreams don't save you from reality. Bullied, weak, and forgotten, Noah Calden met his end not in an accident — but in betrayal, blood, and silence. Shot by the very authorities he once admired, gunned down while cradling the lifeless body of the girl he couldn’t save… he died a villain in a world that never gave him a chance.Yet instead of death, a golden circle flared beneath him, pulling him into a new world… a realm of magic, heroes, and destiny. In this world, heroes are ranked from the lowly Talkers to the elite Seekers. Talkers are support roles—meant to boost morale, cast minor buffs, and cheer from the sidelines. Mocked. Stigmatized. Powerless. Noah was branded a Talker. A joke. Trash. But what no one knew… was that he alone possessed a forbidden gift. He awakens a Lexomancer system and he's now called a Lexomancer. A power that should not belong to a Talker. A power that should not exist. A magic so absolute, his words shape reality itself. Say burn—and you ignite. Say vanish—and you’re gone. His voice isn’t support. It’s a command. Now reborn as Velian Vox, the last Talker and the bearer of this lost magic, he must navigate a world that fears what it does not understand. With whispers of ancient wars, sealed truths, and gods who once spoke the world into being, Velian’s power may hold the key to balance… or ruin. But as mysteries unfold and enemies close in, one truth becomes clear: With great power comes great consequence. And when the world listens to your every word… you must choose each one carefully. Let the world hear his voice. Even if it trembles when it does.

"Ah, Young Master, Cassius?...I'm afraid you'll be dissapointed to hear that he's not available at the moment as he's 'attending' to his adopted mother in her room." Cassius's lovely maid, Isabelle said in a fluster while she heard lewd sounds escape from her Mistress's room. "No, I'm sorry to say that you can't meet Young Master today, since he's 'helping out' his sister-in-law with some 'favours' in her garden." The innocent Isabelle excused herself as she witnessed her lady's flower being picked, instead of the rest of the flowers in the garden. "I hate to say this sir but Young Master, Cassius is currently guiding Miss Knight in the 'ways of the sword', so you can probably only meet him tomorrow." Isabelle once again blocked the guests from entering, knowing that the sword her Young Master was handling could penetrate a body, but could never wound one. "I apologise once again as Young Master is at the Capital right now teaching a class to the female students in the Academy." Isabelle said with her cheeks flushed, already knowing that her master was taking a very 'practical' lesson about human reproduction with the girls in his class. "Oh my! The King wants to meet the Young Master?...Well I guess he'll have to wait since Young Master, Cassius has gone clothes shopping with the Queen." Isabelle lied to the King himself, knowing that her Young Master wasn't shopping for clothes and was actually removing the royal clothes off the Mother of the Country. Excuses...Excuses...The loyal maid, Isabelle had no choice but to make excuses for her Young Master, who was the most talked about and hated noble on the Continent because of his depraved escapades with all sorts of woman ranging from his own Family to Royalty itself and his Tyranical rule over his estate. And to think that not too long ago he was considered a wastrel noble, who was going to drink himself to death one day. ...When did it all begin she wondered as she excitedly walked into his room to get the reward she deserved for being such a loyal made, while someone else made excuses for her this time. •°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°• [No NTR - No Yuri - No sharing - No system that assists the protagonist - No mind control - No drugs or potions that influence the girls - No unnecessary Drama - Incest - Harem - Hardcore Netori - Slice of Life Romance - Demigirls - Elves - Vampires - Beast Girls - Slaves - Royalty - Finally a very competent protagonist] discord.gg/ujeKWchgeb

"I wasn’t supposed to exist. But the System glitched… and chose me anyway." Cael Vox woke up in a realm that shouldn’t remember him. No name. No class. No quest. Just a broken system whispering errors — and a Core inside him that shouldn’t be there. Others awaken with stats, skills, and guidance. Cael awakens with visions of corrupted futures, Veins that obey only him, and a shadow that walks out of sync. He sees betrayal before it happens. Realms collapsing before they fall. And somewhere deep in the code of reality, something ancient stirs — watching him. The realms follow rules. Cael breaks them. The Nexus Veins are reopening. The Forgotten Realms are dying. And the System has made its final mistake… It chose a Paradox. ---

Kaito was just an ordinary office worker—overworked, under-caffeinated, and nursing back pain from a chair he swore he’d replace six months ago. His only escape?

And will the Dragon Goddess ever stop feeling guilty for yeeting the wrong guy across dimensions? A slow-burn, slice-of-life isekai full of magic, mishaps, and unexpected bonds.

Scared by Blood – In a world where beast tamers hold great power, Samuel, a young tamer with an extraordinary and forbidden ability, embarks on a journey that will shape the fate of the continent. Unlike ordinary tamers who control living monsters, Samuel can tame the souls of dead beasts, gaining their powers and even commanding their bodies. The Beginning: Samuel lived a peaceful life in a small village until his mother revealed the truth about his father and his hidden power on her deathbed. Determined to grow stronger, he left home, trained in secret, and eventually registered as a beast tamer in the capital Zoria. There, he met his closest friends—Elaine, Marianne, Sylvia, and his childhood best friend, Lancelot. The Attack on Zoria & Awakening of Power: While on a job in the capital, Ezekiel (Vox Sanguinis), an infamous beast tamer, led an invasion using monstrous creatures known as the Malugna. In the chaos, Lancelot was killed before Samuel's eyes, breaking something inside him. Fueled by rage, Samuel swore revenge and awakened his Soul Tamer abilities. He summoned Bahamut, the Legendary Dragon, forcing Ezekiel and his forces to retreat. Rising Fame & New Challenges: As Samuel continued his journey, his power grew: He fought and tamed a Leviathan, gaining the ability to breathe underwater. He traveled with his party and Jason, a warrior from the neighboring nation of Sylphora. His abilities spread across the continent, catching the attention of kings, nobles, and enemies alike. He formed complex relationships, including a growing rivalry and romance with Lyra, a noblewoman who served the king. A World in Conflict: Samuel’s increasing power brought both respect and fear. Some saw him as a hero, while others saw him as a threat to the balance of power. The King of Zoria summoned him and his party for high-stakes missions, including investigating a leviathan threat in the city of Lorigna and defending the kingdom from external and internal enemies. But beneath the surface, a greater danger looms—a secret war between powerful factions, hidden forces that manipulate events from the shadows, and the mystery of Samuel’s own past. As he continues his journey, Samuel must face betrayal, loss, and the burden of his abilities. He will be forced to make difficult choices, knowing that every beast he tames, every enemy he defeats, and every soul he claims will shape his destiny. Is Samuel a savior, or will he become a monster feared by all? The world will soon find out.

A warrior seeking vengeance. A prince cursed by a demon. An empire on the brink of chaos. Meiying has spent years training in secret, preparing to return home; but when she does, she finds her family murdered and her home reduced to ashes. Her only path forward is revenge. Yet fate takes an unexpected turn when she saves Prince Cheng from an ambush, unknowingly binding herself to his cursed destiny. Marked by the emperor’s desperate deal with dark forces, Cheng carries a burden that threatens not only his life but the empire itself. Mei unlocks a rare and ancient ability—the power to manipulate life force, once wielded by the empire’s protectors. As dark forces rise and political conspiracies unfold, Meiying is drawn into a battle far greater than her own revenge. With the empire on the brink of collapse, she must master her newfound power and choose where her loyalty lies. Can she break the curse and help save a doomed empire, or will her thirst for vengeance lead to destruction? ——— Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. My body stiffened as a palace guard called for me from the other side, but I ignored it. Mei, on the other hand, began pushing me away in a panic. "Cheng, let go," she said, struggling in my arms. "Can't you hear him? What if he comes in and sees us like this?" "I don't care," I replied, my lips brushing her ear. "Tell me you forgive me, that's all I need. I won't let go until you do." I knew I was taking a risk, a huge one, if we were seen like this, there would be consequences. But losing Mei would be the bigger risk, the one I couldn't take. I couldn't let her slip away. "I just need to hear you forgive me, mei. That's all I need right now." The guard knocked again, calling my name, and Mei struggled harder. "Cheng, please," she said, her voice cracking under the strain. But I didn't budge. Finally she muttered, "Fine. I forgive you." "I forgive you, you crazy jerk." "You really mean that?" I asked, my voice barely audible. She nodded, exasperated, and only then did I release her. Just as I did, the door swung open, and I barely had time to step back before the palace guard entered, the guard rushed in, his face pale with worry. It was a close call. too close, but I didn't care. Mei flinched at the intrusion, but quickly composed herself, stepping away from me to a more respectable distance. The guard, wide-eyed and clearly flustered, fell to his knees in a bow. "My deepest apologies, Your Highness. I called for you several times but received no reply. I entered out of concern, fearing the worst." I glanced at Mei, but she wouldn't meet my eyes. She simply gave the guard one last look and walked out, leaving the room without a word. I let out a long, exhausted sigh, running a hand through my hair, still reeling from everything that had just happened. Turning back to the guard, I motioned for him to stand. "Get up" "And next time, don't enter my room without permission." ———— Author’s Note (Rong King) This story is a work of fiction, entirely created from my imagination.

"You cannot leave as you have accepted the marriage certificate."

Le Yao has always had one weakness — the Captain of the National Ice Hockey Team. Who wouldn’t? He’s handsome, charismatic, her ultimate idol. Since she was twelve, Le Yao has loyally occupied the bleachers, not because she knows the game — honestly, she barely understands the rules — but simply to admire him. The Captain. Her Captain. So when an opportunity finally arises for her to accompany the team for their brand’s photoshoot, she leaps at it, convincing Teacher Shen to let her join as part of her junior designer internship. This was her golden chance to see her idol up close! But then he appeared. The young prodigy of the team — arrogant, annoyingly handsome, and completely too aware of how much he gets under her skin. Somehow, instead of fawning over her beloved Captain, she finds herself constantly entangled with this troublemaker, who seems to enjoy making her flustered at every turn. At last, when the shoot wraps up, Le Yao breathes a sigh of relief. Finally, no more unexpected and expected encounters. At least, that’s what she thought. With marriage discussions looming — and having never been in a relationship before — Le Yao had calmly laid out her conditions to her parents for the prospective suitor: Must earn at least as much as she does. Must be… decently good-looking (preferably more than decent). Must have a respectable, stable and good personality. But as she sits at the arranged dinner, expecting a quiet and formal meeting — her eyes widen in disbelief. Why on earth is that prodigy sitting across from her, smiling like he’s been expecting her all along?

on his 18th birthday, Max—a seemingly ordinary teen from a wealthy family—wakes up to silence. His mother has vanished, and in her place is a mysterious letter that flips his world upside down: Max isn’t from Earth at all. Born from an ancient bloodline in a higher realm, Max was transmigrated into this world as a baby, his memories sealed to protect him. But now the seal is broken, and with it comes a mission. His mother has returned to the higher world—and Max can’t follow her unless he grows powerful enough to survive there. And power, it turns out, doesn’t come from training alone. His mother has chosen eight women—each born with rare bloodlines meant to awaken and amplify his potential. His task? Bond with them, grow stronger, and unlock the path to ascension. Max had it all planned: seduce them, build a legendary harem of three thousand beauties, become a god among men. But destiny has a twisted sense of humor. Because every one of these chosen women... turns out to be not quite what he expected. Max had read about futanari in fantasy novels. He never imagined he’d be living with them—let alone being overpowered, flustered, and utterly dominated by them. One by one, they flip the script. Instead of him conquering them, they start conquering him—physically, emotionally, and magically. Now trapped between strength and submission, pride and pleasure, Max faces the ultimate dilemma: To reach the higher world, must he sacrifice his manhood… or embrace the fate that fate clearly enjoys throwing at him?

The Cultivation World’s First Demolition Expert Meet Li Wei, a college student who’s just trying to survive his cashier job, cram for exams, and squeeze in some light novel reading between customers. Until one totally mundane (and slightly embarrassing) accident sends him face-first into the afterlife — and straight into a baby body in a mysterious cultivation world. Only problem? His new parents speak in some ancient dialect that sounds like a mix of unintelligible poetry and very bad karaoke. But don’t worry — baby Li Wei quickly deciphers their babble and grins a creepy, unsettling smile because he knows his secret weapon: gunpowder. Forget spiritual energy and flying swords — Li Wei is here to blow things up, literally. While the local maid is convinced the newborn is possessed (or just suffering from gas), the parents insist it’s just the flickering candlelight playing tricks. With nothing but a brilliant mind, a burning curiosity, and an unhealthy obsession with explosions, Li Wei swears to rewrite every rule of cultivation… one TNT blast at a time. Will he become the greatest cultivator in history? Or just the loudest? One thing’s for sure: this cultivation world will never be the same — and the maid definitely won’t sleep tonight.

 Steady beeps of a heart monitor.  The sterile scent of antiseptic.   The weight of my own weakness pressing down on me.  My body had failed me.  My time had run out. And yet… I still existed.  The pain of my body—gone.  The sterile scent of antiseptic—gone.  The weight of my own weakness—gone. No… it wasn’t gone. Rather, this time, it was replaced—not with weakness, but with something else.  Power. Not my own.  Something different. Something unknown. Something I had only just become aware of. But before I could comprehend it, I was already a target— under attack, with no choice but to defend myself.

In a savage, ancient forest where shadows bite and mercy is a myth, a child is born from nowhere—four-armed, one-eyed, with a glowing glyph etched on its back. This brutal wilderness, alive with predators like the crimson-furred Olf and venomous Spiteacks, offers no warmth, only hunger and fear. Guided by instinct and nourished by strange rains, the child claws for survival, their jade-green eye tracing spiral carvings that whisper secrets older than the trees. Each step is a battle—against gnawing starvation, tearing thorns, and beasts that smell weakness. As the child’s defiance grows, so does their strangeness, fangs sprouting, rage kindling, yet the forest watches, unyielding, ready to devour anything that dares to burn too bright

The hum of the coffee shop was like any other a blend of clinking cups, hushed conversations, and the soft swish of the barista’s apron as they moved behind the counter. Adrian strode in, his sharp gaze barely flicking toward the order board as he walked past the line of people. His mind was preoccupied, his phone held firmly in one hand, eyes scanning through an email from his company’s legal team. He was too distracted by his thoughts to notice the petite figure standing in his path until it was too late. A gasp broke through the air, followed by the unmistakable sound of liquid splashing. Adrian's body jerked, the scalding hot coffee sloshing onto his dark gray suit just as his phone flew out of his hand. “Shit!” came the voice, soft but hurried, as the person in question scrambled to steady their own coffee cup and avoid more damage. Adrian barely had time to react as a small figure stepped back, eyes wide with panic. "I.I’m so sorry!" The voice trembled, and Adrian finally looked up to meet the wide, apologetic eyes of the person who had crashed into him. His gaze softened as he saw the clear panic on the other person’s face. The person in front of him was a young man slender, with messy dark hair and a few stray strands falling into his face. His eyes, a warm shade of brown, flicked nervously from the coffee splattered on Adrian’s suit to Adrian’s face. His lips parted in a silent apology as he clutched the coffee cup, looking for something to say, but the words seemed to fail him. Adrian’s frown deepened, his suit already ruined, but the surprise of the moment faded quickly. He tilted his head slightly, giving the man a once-over. "Are you alright?" Adrian asked, voice calm yet with an edge of amusement, despite the ruined suit. He reached for the napkins on the counter to dab at the coffee stains. The guy blinked rapidly, as if processing Adrian’s question. “Yeah, I... I mean, yeah, but oh god, your suit! I’m so sorry, I wasn’t paying attention!” His hands fluttered in the air awkwardly as he stepped forward, his movements frantic. Adrian couldn’t help but let out a small chuckle, shaking his head. “It’s fine, really. I’ve had worse.” His voice held a quiet authority, but something in his expression softened. He took a breath and added, “Not the first time something like this has happened.” The young man Kai, as Adrian now saw on his name tag bit his lip and exhaled a shaky breath. "I'm so embarrassed. I swear, I’m usually more careful." He finally seemed to calm down a little, though his nervousness lingered. Adrian couldn’t resist. “Seems like you’re a little distracted. What’s going on in that head of yours?” Kai blinked again, almost flustered. "Huh? Oh. Just... life, you know?" He laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck. “Work stuff... which is apparently bad luck today.” He pointed toward the stain on Adrian’s suit, his fingers twitching nervously. Adrian’s eyebrow arched. “Work stuff, huh? What do you do?” Kai hesitated for a moment. “Uh... marketing. At... uh, a company. Not nearly as cool as... whatever it is you do.” Adrian chuckled again, shaking his head. “I’ll say this, though: I’m not in the marketing game. I’m actually... not great with people, so let’s just say you got me at a good moment. A coffee spill’s the least of my problems today.” His voice was smooth, almost teasing as he finally took in Kai’s nervousness. Kai looked embarrassed but a little relieved. “Well, if it helps, I’ll pay for a new suit?” “Too much of a hassle,” Adrian replied. “But you do owe me a drink. How about we get one sometime this weekend?” Kai blinked, clearly caught off guard. “Wait, you mean... after spilling coffee all over you?” Adrian smiled, a sly glint in his eyes. “Well, if you’re willing to make it up to me, why not?” Kai’s hesitation was palpable, but there was a playful curiosity there now, his shoulders relaxing as he gave a half-hearted laugh. “I’ll be honest, I wasn't expecting that...

“What? Are you flustered? You just had sex with an older woman?” Evelyn said, pouting. “Your perky breasts would disagree, my little flame”, Drake responded, staring intently into her soul with a smile on his face. Evelyn lost all sense of duty as she stared into the eyes of the stray wolf, Drake, the unmistakable resemblance to her past lover, the late Lycan king, the only man who gave her everything she was. Her world further crashed when he called her “little flame”, only Damian dared to call her that. Damian Blackhood before his demise had made her the sole heiress of his castle and trained her fervently, he was aware of the brutal ancient prophecy that his successor wasn't going to be from his bloodline but a flame in his life, Evelyn was that flame, he ignited it, a once discarded Omega trained to become Ravenclaw‘s Luna. But he kept a crucial secret from her; he was dying. Their love thrived until one night when Damian fell ill and Evelyn had to watch her once vibrant lover fade away gradually, he handed over everything he had to her and died, against mixed acceptance from the pack, she became the Luna of the pack navigating the roughness of the powerful position, forming alliances, breaking some, fighting battles. The greatest battle she had to fight was developing a forbidden affection for a young stray wolf boy who was the reincarnation of her lover, twenty years after he had left her stranded. Would she embrace her second chance at love even if it defies time itself? Would she deny herself happiness and hold on forever to the ghost of the past?

—MOVED TO ROYAL ROAD— https://www.royalroad.com/fictions/best-rated Long before the dawn of time—before stars burned, before the universe breathed—there was war. In a realm older than creation itself, Fallen Gods follows Takagi Akuma, a divine enigma forged by both life and death. Born not merely as a god, but as something far more dangerous, Takagi harbors a hidden force buried beneath his divinity—one that even he doesn’t fully understand. When Suzuro, the revered King of Gods, devises a plan to exterminate all mortal life, Takagi must choose: obey his creator, or defy the gods themselves. Torn between loyalty and justice, Takagi wages war across eternity—facing monstrous deities, unraveling cosmic truths, and confronting the haunting mystery of his origin. With existence hanging by a thread, his journey becomes more than survival—it becomes a reckoning. Before the Big Bang, there was only power. And the one who mastered it… rewrote reality. I will be posting this to Royal Road as well.

Wrestling between amnesia and suicidal thoughts, Akuma tries his best to survive in this monster-infested underground shelter. Here, the poor fight for the rich; an army of young special soldiers forced into enrollment stands as proof. Humanity needs to be saved from this unrivalled threat, and they shall be the ones to do it with their feeble, yet undying, hope. Cover Art by @art_dabdab
