Makima Shrine

Chronicles of the Ethereal Veil

Merlin Asher was a young man who died in another world, only to awaken in the quiet heart of Storshallow—a city of whispered cults, mechanical wonders, and ancient secrets best left unspoken. Bound to a new identity and equipped with the memories of the body he now inhabits, Merlin strives to fit seamlessly into the life of a modest boarding-house assistant, concealing the extraordinary circumstances of his arrival. As he carries out his daily tasks and navigates the delicate expectations of Mistress Halewick’s establishment, he becomes increasingly aware that Storshallow’s elegant streets and tidy facades hide shadows far older and deeper than he first imagined. When a traveling scholar named Master Wintrell arrives, seeking forbidden knowledge in one of the city’s most enigmatic repositories—the Eightfold Library—Merlin is drawn further into a subtle web of mysteries. Fragments of occult symbols and unsettling echoes from the boarding house cellar suggest that the hum of everyday routine conceals a realm of hidden artifacts, strange deities, and grand cosmic machinations. Caught between his unassuming role and a burning need to understand the secret currents of this new world, Merlin sets forth on a journey of quiet inquiry, determined to unravel the truth without attracting the wrong kind of attention. In a land where the holy and the horrifying sometimes share the same shrines, Merlin must tread carefully, forging a new destiny before the Ethereal Veil that lies beyond human sight swallows him whole.

Legacy of the Lost Age

In "Legacy of the Lost Age," an ancient god-king awakens from centuries of slumber, finding himself stripped of divine power and cast into a mortal body. The world he once ruled is unrecognizable, his once-glorious empire now lost to myth and legend. Where he once walked as a being of light, revered and feared, his name and legacy have been twisted into tales of ruin and curses. Villagers whisper of "Lost Ones," ancient beings of immense power who vanished from history, leaving behind relics that are now regarded as forbidden and dangerous. Confused yet resolute, the fallen god-king embarks on a journey to reclaim his forgotten legacy. Guided by faint echoes of his former self, he discovers remnants of his past scattered across the land—old shrines, enchanted artifacts, and places of power that have faded into obscurity. Along the way, he encounters Nia, a young girl drawn to the mysteries of the old world. Through her eyes, he begins to understand how fear and reverence have morphed his legacy into a warning tale, casting shadows over his once-respected rule. But his journey is fraught with danger. Ancient forces lurk in the darkness, entities that have grown powerful in his absence, corrupting the very essence of his world. To restore his power, he must face formidable foes and unlock secrets long buried, risking the wrath of those who would prefer the past remain forgotten. As he reclaims each piece of his former strength, the god-king must confront a critical choice: will he rebuild his empire as the god he once was, or reshape his legacy to protect the people who fear him? The path he walks could either restore the world to its former glory—or plunge it further into darkness.

Hero To Overlord: Arlott the Unfettered!

[On Hiatus] Warming: Mature Content. R18 and Dark but cute and wholesome too. Balanced dose of both. Despite doing nothing but good, Arlott received nothing but bad. He saved the world by being an unaware puppet, but all he got was darkest of mud plastered on him after "they" stripped him of his powers that he thought were his. Drug Addict. Abuser of power. Executing manslaughter just because of a few mocking words and getting offended easily. A sexual beast who would take any woman he liked with his power. The hero, Arlott, was never a savior! All he did was to gain the favors of the public, high status, and riches. With his God-given talents, he was a mighty hero of the masses outside and a devil in private! Those who used him and threw him into the sea of despair didn't even bother to kill him because they kept him as a live example to the other rising tides of the world. And they enjoyed seeing him struggling, doing reckless things, experimenting on himself, and doing anything for that far away chance of revenge. But at the age of forty six, his search for revenge and power finally made him stumble upon an encounter--a sea of malevolence, a shrine of cosmic catastrophe-- that forever changed his fate as his path to vengeance finally started with a second chance at life after being born as a son of one of his main betrayers. This time, Arlott would have his revenge as he walks on the path of an overlord, a ruthless tyrant, and a villain in their lives as he vows to make their life a living a hell, all while thoroughly enjoying his new life in the lightest and darkest ways.

Although the protagonist couldn't use cheat skills or modern knowledge in this new world, he managed to adapt and live there thanks to the kindness of a family who took him in. Furthermore, he had the good fortune of marrying their daughter. However, his wife-to-be played an important role like that of generations before her as a shrine maiden who could hear the voices of yokai (supernatural creatures), convey human voices to them and mediate disputes between them. She also had an essential duty to entertain visiting yokai at home which meant... well... let's just say it involved having sex with them.
