Alright, Bro, just hear me out. I’ve got something to tell you, and, uh... it’s a lot. You know how I’ve always been the odd one out in the Mustang family? The black sheep in a legendary line of knights and mages? Everyone in our family gets born with these crazy Rare, legendary, or even mythical pillars—proof of their greatness, right? But me? Nope. Voidborn. Nada. Zero. The one Mustang who can’t even light a candle with magic. But I didn’t give up! I mean, sure, people laughed at me. Sure, the family treated me like I was some kind of cosmic mistake. And yeah, maybe the bullies at school called me "magicless Louis." But I kept studying, searching for a way to fix myself. I didn’t care what it took—I was going to prove everyone wrong!. So, there I was, wandering around the Black Market—you know, the totally shady place Aunt Melissa would freak out about—and I found it: a ritual book. The solution. My chance to stop being Voidborn. I did the ritual in my dorm, thinking it would awaken my pillar. And guess what? It worked! ...Kind of. When I woke up, I felt it that power coursing through me like never before. But when I looked in the mirror, I realized something was... off. My hair was long, my voice was higher, and also became breathtakingly beautiful. that's right bro. I BECAME A WOMAN! So, now I’m stuck like this. But hey, at least I’ve got magic, right? Silver linings! I mean, sure, I might never be the ‘man’ my family wanted, but who cares? I’ve got pillars now, and I’m not letting anyone take that away from me. But Bro, I need your help. I don’t know what I should now. I don’t know how to handle all this power—or, y’know, this body. So, please, Bro, help me out. You’re the only one I can trust. ...And if you laugh, I swear I’ll hex your eyebrows off.

What is martial arts? Martial Arts has nothing to do with musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, treasures or secret manuals, nor is there so much talk about being the best in the world. Martial Arts is a technique, a method that gives the weak a chance to draw their blades against the strong. What is chivalry (xiá)? Chivalry is not about romantic affairs, traditional culture, or being gentle, respectful, frugal, and compliant. Chivalry is violence, it's the bayonet forged by those driven to Mount Liang to use against tyrants. Cao Mo pledged with a dagger, (Returning to) Lu to invade. Zhuan Zhu entered with grilled meat, (Pacifying) Wu to usurp the throne. Brother Zhang cried in the market, avenging his lord by defiling a lavatory. Suicide by cutting one's own throat to seek justice, acting while concealing his sleeve. The tyrant of Qin seized souls, the coward gained courage. This is a martial artist's story. In the 1930s, a group of like-minded young people came together, striving to change the world. Then, two hundred years later, in a garbage landfill, Xiang Shan, the Progenitor of Cyber Martial Arts who had once rebooted heaven and earth, woke up reciting the name of his enemy, having lost all his memories. "Perhaps it's because I lost back then that the world has become what it is..." "So this time, I won't be defeated again!" This is the story of a person changing the world once more!

All of a sudden, various watches appeared out of nowhere in different parts of the world. These locations were quickly controlled by various organizations, and then the marketing of the watches was strictly controlled. Why was this? Because these watches gave access to a unique world: Eternity! Eternity functioned more or less like an open-world game with a single-player mode, except that Eternity was a game where you could actually die! By joining Eternity, everyone awakened a unique talent. This talent helped unlock the first classes, which allowed you to strengthen your physique both in Eternity and in the real world! Not to mention the various skills and talents available... And above all, there was the legend that it was possible to become immortal thanks to Eternity! It was with the aim of changing his destiny that Maxime trained his whole life in swordplay, and for many years saved his meagre salary to obtain one of these famous watches! Watch his rise in the real world thanks to Eternity! ------- Author's note : Trust me, the more the story progresses, the more you'll love it, to the point where you won't be able to put it down :) Chapter release: 1 chs/day.

Author: Q: Why is Linggis, a Rank A hunter, being hunted by all the other hunters? A: Because he brought a coffin out of a dungeon—something that should be impossible and extremely dangerous. Everyone at the location wants to know what’s inside, and many people believe linggis is a dangerous person on the level of a devil, the coffin could be either a great threat or an invaluable treasure. Q: What’s inside the coffin he brought out of the dungeon? A: That’s a major spoiler. But one thing’s for sure—the contents are important, and they involve an old friend of Linggis. Q: Is this a slice-of-life romance story? A: Yes, it’s slice-of-life romance, but it still includes elements of hunters, dungeons, and action. Q: Is the MC overpowered? A: It depends on the market. If readers prefer an overpowered MC, then he will be overpowered. If they prefer a character who grows stronger gradually, the story will follow that direction. Q: Does this novel have a harem? A: It depends on the market. If the demand is high for a harem, then there will be one. If not, then there won’t be. Q: Is the romance very sweet? A: Again, it depends on the market. If readers love sugary romance that feels like a diabetes-inducing treat, then that’s what they’ll get. Q: Is there a lot of action? A: It depends on the market. If action is popular, then there will be plenty of it. If readers prefer character interactions, the focus will shift accordingly. Q: Why isn’t fashion a priority in this story? A: Because I’m not an idealist. I don’t care about aesthetics unless they directly impact the story or the market. Q: Why does every decision in the story depend on the market? A: Because I’m not a hypocrite—I need as much human capital as possible. I write not for personal ideals but to create something that can succeed in the market.

Let's rework Ethan's character to make him an anti-hero who operates in the shadows. Ethan's New Path With his newfound powers, Ethan chose not to seek fame or recognition. Instead, he decided to operate in the shadows, using his abilities to manipulate events from behind the scenes. Ethan's motivations were complex. He wasn't driven by a desire for good or evil; he simply wanted to protect himself and those he cared about. He believed that by operating in the shadows, he could avoid drawing attention to himself and maintain a sense of control. Ethan used his powers to subtly influence the world around him. He would create small, seemingly insignificant events that would cascade into larger consequences. He manipulated markets, whispered in the ears of influential people, and created tiny distortions in the fabric of reality. Ethan's actions were often morally ambiguous. He would help those in need, but only if it served his own interests. He would punish the guilty, but not always in a way that was just Despite his anti-hero nature, Ethan still had relationships with those around him. He was fiercely loyal to his family and would do anything to protect them. He also had a small circle of acquaintances who were aware of his abilities, but they kept his secret. Ethan's relationships with women were complicated. He was charming and charismatic, but he also had a tendency to manipulate those around him. He would often use his powers to get what he wanted, even if it meant hurting those he cared about. The Story's Direction Now that we have reworked Ethan's character, the story can take a darker, more complex tone. We can explore the moral gray areas that Ethan operates in, and the consequences of his action

The only thing 12-year-old Asher remembers from his early childhood are snapshots, hazy images - dad's laughter, mom's smile and a garden with vegetables in the yard. Picking fresh apples from trees into a wicker basket or eating homemade apple pie. But these memories are nothing but the distant past. When Ash was 7 years old, a civil war broke out - the boy was in the basement at the time, looking for old photos of his mother from the wedding as she had requested. Except that it did not happen - the family home was bombed in a bombing raid by the government - Asher then became the only survivor of his family. Asher was forcibly recruited into the rebel army - since the boy was 8 years old, he fought in war - tears, blood, sweat and death became Asher's companions - and nightmares became a regularity. His team, which includes only adults, is joined by a 12-year-old girl - Beatrice, who, like Ash, was forcibly recruited into the army of revolutionaries. Although at first, these two hate each other, over time they become best friends. Even in such terrible places as the battlefield. (Quick side note - the story is also available on Wattpad but with different cover and under a different nickname: https://www.wattpad.com/story/388784259-market-of-humans)

[Relationship: -8 ؟؟؟] Author's Note: Is the work fictional and includes multiple worlds that the hero travels to? Most of the worlds are original and some are known like Hunter x Hunter and One Piece in the advanced stages of the story, the hero does not represent evil or good. Intelligence and strength are mainly used, the system is just an assistant and not a controller that works as a motivator for the hero. This is my first story and my English is not the best.

In a world ravaged by a catastrophic event 39 years ago, humanity's remnants have clustered into fortified cities and bustling markets behind towering walls, using a mysterious power known as "Force" to fend off deadly creatures that emerged from the chaos. Among these survivors is a boy, a resident of a city hidden behind these walls. This boy lives a relatively peaceful life with his best friend until an unknown incident engulfs his city in flames, leaving it in ruins. The boy's best friend perishes in the catastrophe, and he himself suffers grievous injuries, seemingly fatal. Miraculously, despite being burned, crushed, and losing copious amounts of blood, the boy clings to life through sheer willpower and perhaps a deeper connection to the Force than he ever realized. Driven by a burning desire for revenge and answers, he embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind the destruction of his city and the forces at play. As he journeys through the dangerous lands outside the walls, he encounters allies and enemies, each with their own stories of survival and loss. The boy's life transforms as he learns to harness the true potential of the Force, facing trials that test his resolve and uncovering secrets that challenge his understanding of the world and the catastrophe that changed it forever. His path of vengeance becomes one of discovery, leading him to confront the creatures and shadowy figures responsible for the devastation, and ultimately, to redefine his purpose in a world on the brink of another upheaval.
