Like A Butterfly Yakuza

From Underworld to Otherworld: The Ex-Yakuza’s Hermitic Cultivation

Hiroshi Takeda had seen it all. A lifetime in the yakuza, navigating the shadows of the underworld, had hardened him. But after years of violence and deceit, he’d finally made up his mind: he was done. Retirement was supposed to be his reward—a quiet life far removed from the blood and betrayal. Fate, however, had a cruel sense of humor. On what was meant to be his final mission, one of his own underlings turned on him. The betrayal was swift, and the end even swifter. When Hiroshi opened his eyes, he wasn’t in the afterlife he’d expected. Instead, he stood before God—or something like it. The divine being offered him a deal: a peaceful second life, a chance to leave his past behind. But as Hiroshi soon discovered, even gods make mistakes. In a careless mix-up, his name was swapped with another soul’s, and instead of the serene existence he’d been promised, he woke up in a world of magic, monsters, and chaos. Retirement? Not quite. But Hiroshi wasn’t one to back down. “Strength is the only way to secure peace,” he muttered, his old yakuza instincts kicking in. If this new world wouldn’t give him the quiet life he craved, he’d carve it out himself. With the grit of a man who’d survived the underworld and the determination of someone who’d already died once, Hiroshi set out to grow stronger. Magic, cultivation, whatever it took—he’d master it all. After all, he hadn’t fought his way through one life just to lose in the next. __________________________________ Pretty much open to any criticism coming my way, so don't hasitate to reach out for any questions or complaints. update will be every night at 6:00 pm 7 chapters a week is the goal.

They're Not Like Us

In a world shattered by humanity's own ambition, survival comes at a cost. Decades ago, experiments to create bioengineered soldiers spiraled out of control, fusing alien DNA with human genetics. The result was The Others—monstrous beings that decimated the human population, driving the survivors into hiding. Leah Carter is one of those survivors, struggling to find her place in a fractured group that includes Elias, her unwavering ally; Thompson, a man haunted by the past; Jonah, whose fear breeds mistrust; and Maren, whose quiet strength hides a mysterious past. When a revelation about The Others' origins emerges, Leah discovers a disturbing connection to the creatures—one that could either save humanity or doom it. As the group searches for a long-abandoned military research facility rumored to hold the key to defeating The Others, Leah faces a growing divide within her team. Jonah’s suspicion and the group's unease threaten to tear them apart just when they need each other most. Amidst the chaos, Leah uncovers a shocking ability to communicate with The Others, forcing her to confront the possibility that she may be more connected to the enemy than she ever imagined. With the weight of humanity’s survival on her shoulders, Leah must navigate betrayal, fear, and her own inner turmoil. Can she and her group uncover the truth and find a way to fight back against The Others before it’s too late? Or will humanity’s final hope crumble under the weight of secrets and mistrust? "They Are Not Like Us" is a gripping apocalyptic thriller that explores the fragile bonds of trust, the cost of survival, and the enduring question: What makes us human?
