In a hidden laboratory in Jakarta, Rizal, a talented young scientist, and his mentor, Professor Indri, work tirelessly to develop Prototype 01—a sophisticated machine believed to open a portal to the fourth dimension. Their experiments initially proceed smoothly until an unexpected energy surge triggers a series of strange and terrifying events. As Prototype 01 powers up, mysterious sinusoidal waves appear on the monitor, hinting at the existence of an unknown frequency. Professor Indri suspects these waves are related to the Kaluza-Klein hypothesis about extra dimensions. This theory posits the existence of an additional dimension curled around every point in our three-dimensional space-time. Driven by unyielding curiosity and excitement, they decide to send a modified drone into the newly opened portal. However, what they discover on the other side far surpasses their wildest imaginations. A surreal world of undefined colors and baffling geometry unfolds through the images transmitted by the drone from the fourth dimension. The tesseract, a four-dimensional object previously known only through computer simulations, now appears real and moves in ways that defy three-dimensional logic. Their excitement is short-lived, though. The drone's signal weakens and ultimately vanishes, coinciding with a surge of energy instability in the laboratory. Prototype 01 trembles violently, emitting a blinding white light, forcing Rizal and Professor Indri to confront forces they barely understand. In this critical situation, they find themselves caught in a vortex of energy, compelled to make quick decisions. Will they manage to harness the power of the fourth dimension, or will they fall victim to their own ambitions? "Fourth Dimension Portal: Mystery Behind the Waves" takes readers on a suspenseful journey across the boundaries of science and dimensions, exploring human curiosity about the universe and the hidden potentials within it.

Amidst an apocalyptic virus, Alona Lim had always been fond of blood and needles. She's considered to be a one in a million genius young doctor. However, she made a decision that had endangered humanity's only hope for survival—risking the last prototype vial on her best friend Harold. Being the risk taker that she was, Alona took even the slimmest chance of her best friend's survival despite the consequences it bear, only to wake up anew in another body. Alona, who was now named as Vera, swore she'll never get involved with medicine ever again and will enjoy her new life with much more action instead of grinding herbs and learning anatomies. But, seeing how these new people have terrible medical services, much less hygiene, had been sending her wits to the edge. Living in a patriarchal kingdom was already stressful as it was, but seeing how years of unbrushed teeth smooch, months of unshowered people shamelessly walk around, cooking ingredients from rat-infested food storage, and everything that checks off of the bucket list on how to spread a plague fast makes her OCD screech the shit out of her system. Medicine was easy, however, there were also different kinds of people who were fond of blood and needles—the "demonic" witches. Being born as a noble lady, the only reason they must get involved with needles are sewing and embroidery. Medical practitioners are only for the men, the "only logical beings." Witchcraft was a big taboo and considered as demonic practice that were associated with women who disobeys their father or husband. Once discovered that one practices witchcraft awaits nothing but grave punishments. But it does not help much when she's straight-up wayward with a calloused heart. As much as Alona shows potential as a medicine practitioner, she had to keep her male disguise, if not, more and more people will rise suspicion with her erudition to heal.

One thing is for certain, Shota needs what Raith can give him: Inside information on the Mafia. Though underneath the police's noses, an AI has broken free from their programmed firewalls and starts to hack into the mafias warehouses meant for prototype weapons, threatening the Mafia, the police, and citizens.

— hello, i am participating in the fantasy carnival. I'm very late with my entery, but yes, please support and I'll send you love and kisses — The world is 4023 and humanity has advanced into 'Manamity' through innumerable genetic and technological advancements. AI has developed and it is now developing subjects in micromanaged units all over the world, called, Development Laboratories — [DL] Each DL has Sectors focused on engineering a certain race, quality, or developing prototypes of new a Specie. Within the DL is hierarchy, rules and cutthroat competition to be discharged as functioning people of the Manamity. But defying the rules and busting themselves out are Subject S-3-2-3-6-9-43-7-2 and Subject U-262-7-36-27-34-22, now on the lose. The two best friends, Ebenezer and Ambrosia, get together to make the World fall to their feet. After being subjugated to injustices, they decide to take power into their own hands. Ben is a genius scientist and alchemist, working wonders with his hands. Busting out of a laboratory with his trainwreck of a best friend, they decide to avenge for their ancestors and rule the world for themselves. But it won't be easy, given they are first time wannabe villains adjusting into society as well as trying to ruin it. There will be conflict, there will be death, there will be power and victims of their evil pursuits would be the Vampire Empire, the Werewolf Empire, the Merepeople Clan, the Cybrogs and the Wizarding World. And their prime mode of tactic? Well, Wit and Seduction. EXCERPT :: "If I ram his head into the walls, would it be good enough?" "I don't think your limbs are capable of such grotesque means." "No, I really think I can—!!" "I don't want you whining in my bed all night, ma belle. I love you, but not enough to have your snot in my hair." "Your love is shallow." He stretched his lips in a sarcastic smile, having done with whatever he had been screwdriving into the tapestries. He stepped back, taking a moment to admire the subtlety of his work. I hopped to stand beside him, tilting my head to see any differences from before. The wall was still hardwood, the tapestry was still faux fabric framed into the wall, the paintings were still glaring down on us. I flipped them off, just for the heck of it, knowing all too well they wouldn't be reporting shit after Ben had muted them for good. Freakin monitoring creeps. "Ready to be Queen?" Ben whispered, leaning into my ear as he folded his hands against his chest. The digital drawer opened up in front of us and he shoved the screwdriver and little metallic tools into it. His gloved hand fisted hard as he slammed the digital drawer back into nothingness, muscles flexing and my throat gulping. Everyday, he was straying further away from science and alchemy and further into handsomeness and engineering. "I'm always pretty enough to be one." "Of course, ma belle petite." Footsteps; we heard closing in. One of the perks of being a Vampire were these enhanced senses. With one hand on my waist, Ben sped us out through the open windows. We jumped jumped out of perspective of wandering sights and made our way to the frontline clearing. "What next?" I had only said when inaudibly, spurts of glaring red fluid, suspiciously looking like blood, burst out of the windows and rained over the lawn. "Now we are Lord and Lady. One step closer to absolute control." END OF EXCERPT. [[ THIS IS A DYSTOPIAN FANTASY SO IT WILL HAVE TECHNOLOGY AND MAGIC INFUSED TOGETHER. DON'T USE TOO MANY BRAINCELLS BECAUSE I'M NOT A SMART AUTHOR. MY PROTAGONISTS ARE GONNA BE ANTI-HEROS, IF YOU HAD NOT ALREADY FIGURED OUT THE VILLAIN PART. THE STORY WILL BE SORTA HAREM?? IDK.
