"So... well... I died as it seems? Then I woke up as a character from an online science fiction game... And the craziest thing was that I was in my personal spaceship...

Alex had always been an orphan. The kind who wandered through life, never truly belonging. But then, against all odds, he found a place that felt like home only to have it ripped away in the flames of an unrelenting fire. Death wasn’t the end, though. It was the beginning. He awoke, not in the afterlife, but as a character in the very novel he’d once devoured in secret. A world where everything he thought he knew about fate, life, and death meant nothing.

Superpowers appeared suddenly plunging the world into chaos. Wars broke out, countries were destroyed, and the powers spread like a plague. 100 years later powers became the norm, countries all collapsed, and The Watch rose up to protect the world. Life was black and white. The heroes fought the villains and saved the day, the villains did bad things and were defeated. That’s how most children saw it. Peter Het never should have seen it that way, but he did - until his image of the world burnt in front of his eyes. Levi Winter always saw it that way - until the world gave him reason to. Both wanted to try and make a difference using the powers they'd been born with. One had planned to help the world by being the perfect hero, the other by killing the people he saw as responsible for the problems that polluted the world. Neither found themselves doing what they’d imagined. The one seeking to be a hero became a criminal, the one seeking vengeance became an icon of heroes. Their paths in life diverged like streams rushing down a mountain and are then brought back together to cascade over the edge into a new unknown. Both are seeking peace in the unceasing hurricane of life and the violence they can’t escape, and they’ve come to realize that ‘hero’ is nothing more than a title. Author's note: I'll be also posting this story on RoyalRoad.com

"HERO" They are worshipped, celebrated, and hailed as humanity’s greatest defenders. But behind the cheers and applause, heroes are expected to be flawless—always sacrificing, always fighting. In Auronia, one of the three greatest kingdoms on Earth, heroes are more than just protectors; they are the pride of the nation. With nine advanced states, cutting-edge technology, and a structured Hero System, Auronia ensures order and security through its ranked defenders: ELITE (S-Class) – The pinnacle of power. Legends like Solarion and Blackjack stand here, shaping history. MEDIUM CLASS (A, B, C-Class) – Strong, reliable, but just another name on the list. LOW CLASS (D, E, F-Class) – Heroes who barely make a difference. SPECIAL PLACE – Not that special, honestly... A.K.A Sidekick. Yeah, you heard that right. Sidekicks. The ones assigned to assist heroes, take notes, handle logistics, and—if they're lucky—get some cool perks along the way. The selection process is brutal. Only 2 out of 10,000 applicants make it. And me? I’m Leo Maddox. The third person to pass. Sounds impressive? Think again. Sure, working under Solarion, the No.1 Hero of Auronia, has its advantages—free meals, VIP treatment, and never worrying about bus fare. But none of that mattered when I got rejected by my crush. Yeah. Rejected. Just because I’m a sidekick. I mean, come on! I work with the No.1 Hero! But no, apparently, that’s not good enough. Just when I thought my life couldn’t get worse, some nosy agents from A.X.I.O.M., the nation’s secret intelligence agency, started pestering me. Seniors, officials, and even former heroes kept coming to me for help. It was exhausting. I just wanted to keep working with Solarion and live my life in peace. But then... things got weird. I found a picture of someone who looks exactly like me—inside Solarion’s personal files. Who the hell is he? Why does he have my face? And as I dug deeper into the truth, I realized something terrifying. Auronia, the nation of heroes—the beacon of justice and progress—is hiding a darkness far worse than anyone could imagine.

The sky over Karvess was the color of rust. Thick, swirling dust clouds hung low over the scrap fields, coating everything in a layer of fine, red powder. Jagged heaps of broken metal stretched as far as the eye could see, the discarded bones of an age long past. Somewhere in the middle of it all, a boy named Grant sat atop a gutted transport hull, staring up at the vastness above. "Same old sky," he muttered, running a hand through his dirty blond hair. "Same old nothing." It had been six years since he'd been left to fend for himself, abandoned in this wasteland of shattered starships and forgotten tech. Six years of scraping by, salvaging parts to trade for food, dodging scavengers meaner and hungrier than he was. But today was different. Today, his life would change forever. A sharp hum filled the air, making the fine hairs on the back of his neck stand up. His hands, buried in the exposed circuitry of a wrecked cockpit, tingled as the old display flickered to life. Then, a voice spoke. -System activated- Hello, user. I am the Star Navigator System. I am at your service. Grant froze. His heart hammered against his ribs. This wasn’t just any old ship AI. Star Navigators were rumored to be relics of the Pre-Imperial Era, capable of piloting ships faster and smarter than any modern system. This... this could be his way out. "Star Navigator System?" Grant echoed, his voice barely above a whisper. Then, a slow grin spread across his face. "Huh, maybe I can get into the Academy with this... Or even, create an army!" The screen pulsed with light, scanning him, assessing. Somewhere in its code, something shifted, acknowledging him as its new pilot. And just like that, Grant's future stretched wide before him—wider than the skies, wider than the stars themselves.

(MATURE CONTENT) Threesome arc? - Right here A weak, adorable, and low self-esteemed MC with an awful past, a trauma breaking him down every second and controling his life, just before he meets his 'suns', and later gains confidence and starts loving himself again arc? - Right here. Yeah, you read that right. Twin brothers who radiate like the sun and are very possessive of the MC, putting his happiness above everything arc? Gosh, look no further, you're in the right place. This story is just for you, so open it and read to your heart's content. ****** Synopsis I was just a no-name photographer who was trying hard to make a living, but then I got tangled with 'them'. My life, as it was, had always been nothing but a nightmare, living a cursed life that wasn't fit to be called a life. I had no chances with love, connections, or anything. Nothing! And after drawing my last straw, trying to make a final effort that would maybe lead me somewhere other than dirt, I met them again. They - the twins - were my childhood friends whose lives I had ruined with my presence, and I was scared to ruin it a second time, so I tried to stay away from them but... They had other plans. 'When angels dream.' That was what I called the picture. The beautiful portrait was filled with serenity as that blond Italian man gazed into the distance and was showered with the soft petals of cherry blossom. The beautiful picture I had 'stolen'. Yeah, that's the word. I stole it because I didn't ask for permission first. But this is how it unfolded. At first, I took the picture without asking because I was so mesmerized by the scenery, and completely breathtaking, but then I got caught but it wasn't by the same man. They looked alike and wore the same clothes but I could tell right away that he wasn't him. Nevertheless, I apologized. "I'm deeply sorry." I said but then, the man whom I had stolen a picture from walked up behind me and said, "To think such a day would come." I turned around and blinked, looking at the man in front of me and then at the one behind me. They were identical twins. And not only that ... My heart shook... They looked like the twins I had known back then. "What's the matter?" The one in front asked with a bright smile that I was so compelled to take a picture of him and I did. He blinked at my confused expression and then burst out laughing. A sweet and cheerful laugh that made me blush. he looked really handsome. They both did, with their blonde hair which shone like gold with the suns radiation and a charming smile. I found my heart racing at the mere sight of that smile and almost forgot the situation I was in. "I see you haven't changed at all." He suddenly said, swiped my hair back and added, softly, "Hyung." My eyes widened. These two... It couldn't be... They weren't the twins, right? The twins that I knew. They... How did this happen? I just wanted a picture, that's all. ****** Thank you all for diving into this story. Note, the smut doesn't officially start right away till the later chapters but I didn't leave the readers without some sweet candies either, so along the line, there were a bunch of 'actions' between MC and the twins, huhu. His denial knew no bound but his body still won in the end, haha. Anyway, if you find waiting for updates too long, and you haven't checked out my other books, please do. There's also a threesome arc in the first one below. And it's completed too. What a score! 1) Alpha, Alpha, Beta? I transmigrated into an Omegaverse as a boy? [Completed] Check out the continuation of number one, It's the next generation, that is, their kids 2) To Byul (Omegaverse) [Ongoing ]

Just call me “France”, I am 24 years old, 5’6 in height, 72 kg, with fair skin, and black hair. Currently, I am working in an insurance company. I am someone who is living and going with the flow of what life may bring because, at this age mine, I still don’t know what things I want to do and I also don’t know what path to take. I am someone who is wondering why am I still wandering in this life. I was born into a not-so-privileged family in the southern part of Cebu, Philippines. I grew up far from civilization and I can consider myself an old-fashioned man when I was given a chance to go to a university. Going to a university was my biggest dream those days and also it seems to be impossible to go to the university because I am 4th from the eldest and I have 4 younger siblings, looking at our family status and situation, it’s impossible for me to go to a university. Because of my willingness and determination to go to a university and get a degree, I really studied hard and disciplined myself during my junior and senior years and luckily I was able to get a scholarship because I graduated as the class valedictorian. I am very happy that time not just because I became valedictorian but because of the smiles of my parents, they are my biggest inspiration to reach my goals in life. Their happiness is my greatest happiness. Fast forward, I graduated college, earned a degree, and got my license as a professional teacher. I thought that after achieving those goals, everything will be alright but I am wrong because after I got my license, I don’t know what to do and what path to choose. I am stuck in my life. Above all, I am optimistic and believe that “All things work together for good”. Be part of my journey as I start to write my diary.

Ye Mumu found that the ancestral vase in her home could magically connect to the ancient times two thousand years ago. So she met an ancient young general. The general guarded the important city on the border and was surrounded by 300,000 barbarian troops. There was a severe drought, the riverbed dried up, and 200,000 people starved to death, leaving only 80,000 people. With nowhere to go, the general and the people of the city could only wait to die passively! He begged the gods for water and food, hoping that the people would survive. Ye Mumu waved her hand and approved it! She hoarded a large amount of supplies to feed the soldiers and the people. Steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, and meat sandwiches... every day is different, giving the ancients a little shock of modern food. Sending military books, hoarding food to recruit soldiers, building factory arsenals... giving the ancients a little shock of modern military. When she was deceived, the inherited family business faced bankruptcy. To repay her kindness, the general gave her a lot of money, paintings, antiques, and porcelain... With antiques, she saved the family business, became the richest woman, and reached the peak of her life! The general relied on Ye Mumu to provide modern military equipment to conquer the barbarians, recover the nine states, pacify the six kingdoms, and unify the world. He promised to build a temple for her and worship her for generations. The general sent a marriage certificate: With the mountains and rivers as a witness, I look forward to meeting you when the sea is clear and the river is calm. Under the marriage certificate is a phoenix crown and bridal robe. What a good young general, so this is what you are thinking!

I am Susan Davis, twenty five years old, a very affluent lady, business woman, and most especially, a bachelor lady. Everything in my life is going perfectly and I have everything I need. Working as the office assistant for one of the biggest shipping company in the world, my salary is in millions of dollars. Having fake friends around me, that all they care about is my money. I cared less but I still desired to have a real friendship. Having the perfect family, living such an independent life. All I do is to work, I am known for being such a workaholic. Like most people say, I keep getting richer. I had everything I wanted but I justed needed a coma in my life, I needed to be in a relationship. I was so busy studying and working, I had never experience what 'love' means. Everything was so perfect until that day, "you have been suspended for six months." I was meant to be sad but the joy overtook. It was definitely what I needed, some time to myself. Stepping into the elevator and one of my office friend enters. She shows me a hotel program, "JUST THAT BREAK." Was this going to be what I wanted? That one coma in my life.

Meet Jayden, your average middle schooler—if by "average" you mean someone who hears voices in his head, has uncontrolled psychic abilities, and is constantly on the run from people he can't see. Life was going fine, you know, just the typical teen drama—until Jayden learned he wasn’t as normal as he thought. One minute, he's having class learning long division, trying to make it through the school day, and the next, he’s got invisible men hunting him down for reasons he doesn’t understand. Sure, that’s a Tuesday for some, but for Jayden, it’s just the beginning of a very weird, and very dangerous, journey. Apparently, these men aren’t fans of Jayden's newfound powers. And in the midst of all this, Anna—his so-called friend—has some questionable motives of her own, leading to a betrayal that throws Jayden into a storm of chaos he didn’t ask for. Enter the mysterious man—let’s call him the guy with a plan. This man swoops in like some kind of mysterious mentor figure who sees potential in Jayden (don’t worry, he’s not here to make him a superhero—far from it). No, this guy sees a lot of raw, untapped psychic chaos and decides to take Jayden under his wing. It’s all very sinister and very confusing, but Jayden doesn’t have time to process it because he's suddenly plucked out of his life, thrown onto a private jet, and given an offer: join the fight, or become a pawn in a game he doesn't understand. And just when Jayden thinks he’s reached rock bottom, he’s introduced to Nadya—one part pilot, one part “I’ll break you if you don’t get your act together” drill sergeant. She’s assigned to “train” Jayden, but don’t get too excited—she’s not exactly on the whole “let’s make him a hero” bandwagon. No, she’s got her own issues, and they’re all written in sharp, Russian-accented sarcasm. The good news? She’s tough. The bad news? Jayden’s about to get thrown into a warzone. Because what’s the best way to “train” someone with uncontrollable psychic powers? Send them into an international conflict, obviously. So, what’s a guy like Jayden supposed to do when he’s got powers, a bunch of shady people telling him what to do, and absolutely no clue who to trust? He can either lean into the darkness and become a villain, or... well, become a hero. Maybe. It’s not looking great for him, though. But here’s the kicker—he didn’t ask for this. In fact, Jayden would much rather go back to his old life of trying to avoid attention, and definitely not end up in some high-stakes international conspiracy. But since life doesn’t care about your plans, Jayden’s about to dive into something far bigger than himself. And it’s going to be explosive—literally. Will Jayden succumb to the chaos? Will he learn how to control his powers? Or will he burn it all down and go down in a blaze of psychic glory? You'll have to stick around to find out. Spoiler: There’s a lot of unpredictable in his future. And honestly? That’s just how he likes it.

Rina Saeki is a beautiful, yet thoroughly burned out office worker. Toiling away at a job she hates for a boss who seems to despise her, she's been ground down over the years to the point where she finds it hard to enjoy *anything*. Even the clear affection of an adorable co-worker can't break through to her, she's far too tired to even *think* about a committed relationship. Eager to break out of the malaise of corporate life, Rina risks it all on a dubious succubus summoning ritual. She's fully aware that it likely won't work, but she can't find it in her to care, it's the first thing she's been excited about in years. When the ritual, against all odds, actually works, Rina's terrified of what the haughty, disinterested succubus she summons might do to her. Still, the two find unexpected common ground, and after a night of fun together, they agree to live by each other's side. This comes at a cost, however, and Rina finds herself transformed into a succubus, and bound to Haqua forevermore. Now dealing with an altered body and crumbling inhibitions, Rina's determined to make this life far more exciting than the one she's led up until now, and finds herself immersed in pleasure she never imagined possible, all with a *very* loving succubus by her side.

There's Nothing!!!
