Risky Boots

Lucas Arthur was nothing more than a weak and struggling C-rank hunter, barely getting by in a world where power dictated everything. Forced to participate in a risky raid in a Class B cell, he found himself abandoned by his comrades when a deadly ambush left one of them, Andre, mortally wounded. As Lucas stood beside his dying comrade, the impossible happened. A glowing blue screen appeared in front of him. [Congratulations! You have earned the unique skill: “System Maker (SSS Rank)”] Before he could realize the absurdity of it, another prompt followed. [You have met the requirements to grant Andre the System: Evolutionary System] Driven by instinct, Lucas agreed and watched in shock as Andre's wounds healed, his strength rose, and his eyes shone with new power. Then, with unwavering loyalty, he spoke: *“Your orders, sir?”* It was then that Lucas realized he had the power to create systems for the Hunters, growing stronger with each follower. Each follower and each hunter Lucas gave a system that could evolve and increase in level and power But as Lucas grants more systems, powerful enemies take notice—ones who would do anything to control or destroy a System Maker With every hunter he empowers, Lucas steps closer to becoming an existence that defies the very rules of this world.

Jiang Chen never expected to find himself in a world of cultivation, let alone as a core disciple of a famous sect. Destined to play the villain’s role, his future was full of trouble. He had plotted against the protagonist, crippling his dantian and turning him into a disgraced outcast, barely holding onto his place in the sect. If not for a surprising twist, Jiang Chen’s story might have ended as a small chapter in the protagonist’s grand journey. Understanding how risky his position was, Jiang Chen gave a sly grin. Alone, he thought to himself: 'Is the protagonist strong? No doubt about it. But am I afraid? Definitely not. Why? Because I have the Immortal Great Villain System!' Then he paused, his expression changing slightly. 'Wait… there’s more than one protagonist?' Instead of feeling worried, his grin grew wider. 'Well, isn’t that perfect?' With a sharp glint in his eyes, Jiang Chen made a bold declaration to himself: 'As the ultimate Great Villain, I’ll defy Heaven’s will and stand at the top!'

Instead of being reincarnated with no memory of his past, he can come back to a new world with the offer of receiving a legacy as well.

The action takes place in 2119-2120. Since 2113, a protracted nuclear war has been going on between the Asian and Western Blocs. The war was preceded by the "Pre-War" for Indonesia, which began in 2107. The historical period of the Pre-War & War has already formed an entire generation. The "war process", as it is called, has little in common with ideas about a global Armageddon. The economy of the Western Nations is privatized by two superholdings - "constellations", which are parts of a single whole and do not compete. Over the years of the War, the ruling circles of different levels have achieved goals that were not initially set. This is the write-off of the US national debt, which paid for the construction of the global defense of the West, the implicit occupation by the US of its allies, partial privatization of the US itself by constellations. In the Asian Bloc, the picture is similar. Between the Blocks there is a channel for concluding and observing shadow "anti-apocalyptic" agreements - the "seventh headquarters". This is a nuclear-powered superplane-headquarters constantly flying over Antarctica. By the end of the 2110s, a peaceful settlement of the "Only War" is no longer being considered. Instead, the option of "Conversion of the Military Process" is being actively developed - minimizing military actions on the fronts, denuclearizing the War and "pushing" military actions into "high space orbits". The top of the constellations and the billionaire technocrat Bandon the Third in particular are interested in such a scenario. The "converted" War will open up freedom of action to form a new society, industry, morality and the exit of a selected part of humanity to the development of other planets. The moral values of the top of the constellations and Bandon are quite dubious. A certain crisis event, the details of which were determined later, was chosen as the impetus for launching "Conversion" several years earlier. An important element of this scenario is a certain personality - the leader of the rebels who seize a nuclear base, an aircraft carrier, etc. The role of the personality is doubly important due to the fact that the crisis event must develop on display, "in front of the cameras", to the whole world. The question of the motivation of such a personality is complicated by the fact that most candidates for this role will inevitably see such an enterprise as risky and having an outcome that is unpredictable for them. The problem is solved by preparing an agent with a processed consciousness - a fragment of memory and life that contains preparation, moral pumping and technical training for such an agent is hidden, erased. One of these sleeper agents, Andrei Zavirdyaev, lives the life of an ordinary CSCE employee (the old-new name of the OSCE). The crisis event is determined - it must be the hijacking of a new shuttle. Zavirdyaev, who completed his "sleeper agent course" in 2113, regularly undergoes a "technical inspection" - during trips abroad, he is received by secret services, partially "de-mothballed" by his memory, checked and "updated". During the "update" in 2120, he is told that he is to hijack a shuttle. He does not need to control the vehicle and mission - he is a supermedia "monkey with a grenade". The plan starts successfully, the media machine successfully carries out the stages of the program developed by the constellations. Another character is an extraterrestrial life form that looks like a 35-year-old northern European woman. This is Haldoris Landskricht. She is an "avatar" of the mind of a black hole located in one of the arms of the galaxy. Despite all the exoticism, the psychological appearance of her personality is quite human. Living among people, possessing a number of superhuman abilities, she avoids directly and openly influencing the historical process, not wanting to make things worse. Haldoris Landskricht does not agree with the plans of the constellations…

Jian Tian transmigrated into a Mary Sue school novel and became the cannon fodder female supporting character. Although she is cannon fodder, her entire family is full of villains. The villainous eldest brother opposes the male lead and leads the company to bankruptcy. The villainous second brother opposes the female lead and ends up with crippled legs. The villainous third brother is a love-struck fool and ends up on the streets. And she has it worse, being implicated and sent to prison. Why should she be the only cannon fodder in a family of villains? She wants to turn the tables! She wants to rise! However, just as she ignites her fighting spirit, she discovers she’s bound to a system that will obliterate her soul if she doesn't slack off. Jian Tian: "..." Lies down. And she even persuades her whole family to slack off collectively. Seeing the eldest brother working overtime at the company: "Stop working overtime; after all, the company won't be yours in the end! Trust me, first lose 1 billion!" Seeing the second brother busy with his medical career: "Don't work too hard, after all, you're ultimately making wedding dresses for others. Why not research a cure for crippled legs instead?" Seeing the third brother running errands for the female lead: "Isn't being a happy bachelor nice? Why must you suffer for love? Wake up, licking the boots will get you nothing in the end!" The three brothers of the Ji family: "..." Has our little sister gone crazy? Later, after experiencing the joy of slacking, the three brothers: "Hmm, this is nice..." However... We agreed to slack off together, so how did you quietly become a top boss?! Jian Tian awkwardly scratches her head: "There’s too much development in my field; I can't help it." And the dark villain lurking in the shadows, aggressively wrapping his arms around her waist: "Hmm? How about including me too?" Jian Tian: "..." Don’t come near me!

Magi of Sinlung Larin was just another apprentice magi, content with the quiet pursuit of knowledge—until war shattered his world. The Kirat Empire, an iron-fisted colossus, has long trampled Xiaxo under its boot, but their rule has fractured. As rebellion brews and ancient forces stir, Larin finds himself at the heart of a conflict far greater than he ever imagined. The magic of Sinlung, the breath of the land itself, is awakening. Beings older than recorded history—Primordial entities, Guardian Beasts, and cosmic civilizations lurking beyond the stars—have begun to make their moves. Some see humanity as pawns, others as tools, and a few as something more. But the wars of gods and conquerors will not wait for one young magi to catch up. Resistance is inevitable. Betrayal is certain. Survival is not. Larin must wield every scrap of knowledge, power, and cunning to carve a path forward. From the battlefields of Xiaxo to the depths of forgotten ruins, from the councils of war to the whispers of cosmic magi, he will face blood, sacrifice, and impossible truths. The world is shifting, and with it, the nature of magic itself. Will he remain a mere student of the arcane, or will he forge himself into something greater? What to Expect: In-depth and immersive worldbuilding – Traditions, cultures, and histories woven into a living world. Grand-scale civilizations – Empires, resistance forces, and cosmic hierarchies, each with their own agendas. A clash of ideologies – What does it mean to rule? To resist? To be free?

In a world where strength is defined by the beasts you tame, power is everything. Contracts forged with monstrous creatures unlock abilities beyond mortal comprehension, elevating their tamers to the heights of glory. The stronger your beast, the higher you stand. For Auron Raventor, the heir of a prestigious family, it should have been simple. Except, there's one little problem—he’s the sole failure in a lineage of prodigies, completely incapable of forming a single contract. The world calls him talentless, a waste of potential. And frankly, Auron's almost amused by how right they are. Resigned to a life of ridicule, Auron would have happily embraced the peace of obscurity if it meant being left alone. But the universe clearly has other plans. In the darkest moment of his despair, a buried power awakens within him. A power older than the very concept of taming itself. He doesn't form contracts. He devours. Absorbing strength straight from the beasts he defeats, merging their abilities into his own. It’s unnatural. It’s dangerous. And it’s about time he made the world realize they’ve been looking at power all wrong. Armed with abilities that shouldn't exist and a blatant disregard for their rules, Auron’s set to carve his own path. One that doesn’t involve licking the boots of arrogant elites or begging for their approval. Let them scoff. Let them sneer. By the time they realize the true scope of his power, it’ll be far too late. Strength. Survival. Ascendancy. And maybe........ just maybe....if the world’s lucky, Auron might just leave a few pieces behind when he’s done. AUTHOR'S NOTE This ain’t your typical beast-taming novel. You won’t find some wide-eyed farm boy here preaching about friendship while his magical dog does all the work. No. You’re in Primordial Eclipse: Devourer’s Awakening—where the protagonist doesn’t have plot armor, just a system that barely tolerates his existence. Auron ain’t some righteous hero, and he sure as hell isn’t bowing to the Academy’s nonsense. He’s out here breaking bones, dodging beast contracts like they’re tax collectors, and figuring out how to become a one-man extinction event. NOW, BUSINESS. GOLDEN TICKET DEALS 1 Golden Ticket = 1 Bonus Chapter (You pay, I suffer.) 100 Golden Tickets = Auron actually gets a proper meal for once. POWER STONES = FASTER RELEASES Every Power Stone thrown at me shaves off my remaining sanity and forces me to write. More Power Stones = Less Sleep for Me = More Chapters for You. It’s a toxic relationship, and I love it. REVIEWS & COMMENTS = MORE CHAOS This story is filled with: ✓A protagonist who’s more villainous than virtuous. ✓A world where beast tamers reign supreme (and Auron doesn’t give a damn). ✓ Schemes, betrayals, and enough chaos to make your head spin. ✓ Humor—because if you’re not laughing at the absurdity of it all, you’re probably dead. Read at your own risk. I take no responsibility for sleepless nights, sudden addiction, or the deep existential crisis you might have when you realize Auron is, in fact, that guy.

I ran so fast— my boots digging into the snow. There was nothing to protect me from the cold. When I no longer heard his footsteps behind me, I risked a glance over my shoulder. Relief barely washed over me before I turned back, only to freeze in terror. He was standing right in front of me. He stalked towards me like a predator watching it’s prey. His eyes dark and cold. I swallowed hard, taking a slow step backward. “I think you are forgetting something, Freydis,” he murmured. “What?” “That a wolven, a beast like me, can’t be killed by a single stab,” he said. “If you wanted to kill me you should have aimed for the heart.” In an instant, he was not standing in front of me. He’d moved so fast that it left me breathless. I felt his fingers trail across my soft skin. I swallowed hard, my mind screaming for me to run. Just before I could do anything, he struck, his sharp fangs pierce into my skin.

Melanie Collins was the perfect wife—caring, strong, and dependable. For the last few years, she had managed her husband’s messy family, and business alone while waiting for her husband to return from studying abroad. But when he finally came back, Melanie’s world fell apart—he wasn’t alone. Along with him was his 'best' friend. Broken and confused about the change in her husband, Melanie didn’t know where to turn. And then she stumbled into another cold reality. Everything she had believed was a lie. Seething with anger and humiliation, as she tried to come to terms with the betrayal, an unexpected person steps into the picture, intent on seducing her and conquering her. The only problem? The man was her ex brother in law... And against her better judgment, she is attracted to this bad boy... But as Melanie tried to make sense of the changes, she discovered there was more going on than she ever imagined. Had both brothers loved really fallen in love with her? Or was she just a pawn in a bigger game? excerpt Since he had already been leaning against the table, he simply slid onto it, and with one swift motion, he hooked his boot around the leg of her chair and pulled it—pulled her—closer.The sudden movement made her jolt slightly, and when she looked up or rather when she looked ahead, she found herself staring directly at the zipper of his jeans... She looked up then and met his gaze. He caught her chin," Would you like to check if I am only pretending, sweet melon?"Melanie stiffened. And then pushed back her chair suddenly, so that Adam almost lost his balance, as she stood up. Before he could balance himself, she placed her hand on his shoulder, her fingers brushing against his neck.  Adam stiffened, his eyes glittering as he waited to see what she would do next. And she, of course surprised him as her other hand, slowly settled on the inside of his thigh. And then, the hand on his shoulder started to move. Her fingers tracing the side of his neck before lifting as she shot a glance to the corner of his mouth. The little piece of metal glinting there. She flicked at it lightly, barely a touch, but Adam could feel the heat all over his body, as she leaned in close, her lips barely a few centimetres away...so that they could both feel each other's breaths… She smiled slowly then. "Careful, Adam," she murmured, her voice playful, but carrying the unmistakable edge of a challenge. "Keep pushing, and I just might call your bluff."

“Aegir..” A single word remains in Cetas’ mind as he succumbs to the everlasting pressure of the depths - a glimmer of light filtering from above. He floats endlessly, the tidal currents rushing his body to who-knows-where yet he remains unconscious as the word echoes in his mind. He no longer remembers any memories that he once had but only mere fragments of what his past once was. A depth-dweller. A long lost race of ancient, forgotten in history as humans usurped the throne of the world, claiming superiority amongst other races of legend. After the war of mystics, only humans endured to live and gather themselves once more - dominating the entire world by force. Yet, depth dwellers remained - hidden and forgotten. And now.. The first would rise up on the surface. For hours upon hours, Cetas let the currents take him away, rendering his consciousness useless everytime he woke up. But now, it seemed that a warm and radiating light pierced his very pressurized skin. It was.. unfamiliar. He opened his eyes only to be greeted by a rocking hull, shaking synchronously with the sound of crashing waves. Yet, somewhere near him, he heard a faint and soft voice speaking a foreign language. He shifted his head to the direction of the voice and saw an unfamiliar face of a golden-haired lady with sea-like blue eyes, staring at him with utmost curiosity. The lady opened her mouth and let out another wave of unfamiliar words. Perplexed, Cetas sat up slowly, moving his body sluggishly. He then gazed at his surroundings, first staring at the massive rocking hull and onto the wooden floor and to the people surrounding him. Some wore bandanas and others wore white-loose blouses paired with leather boots and tricorn hats. However, Cetas wasn’t at all surprised by the unfamiliar scenery. But rather, he gazed above the sky, reaching far beyond the clouds, and saw the burning sphere of light that penetrated his deep-black eyes. Upon staring for 5 seconds he instinctively winced in pain. “Ow!” He looked around once more, pacing his head back and forth towards the unfamiliar people around him, and pondered, “Where am I?”

A man rejected by the will of the world he grew up in for all of his life, and a genius with infinite potential who fell as a result of making a risky bet. Under the machinations of the deceased Heavenly Emperor, Huang Xian, two unfortunate souls from entirely different worlds got saved and fused together into a new whole, adopting the identity of the latter–Theodore Winter, the heir to one of the Supreme Pillars of the Heavenly Court. As an eon-spanning competition to decide the next generation of Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Empress began, it brought with it a game of wits, power and plots that would shake the Heavenly Court to its core. Reincarnators, Transmigrators and Regressors were barely qualified to chase after the unprecedented monsters that had been brought into being for the express purpose of rising above the rest. Battles between peers were like peeling an onion–nobody ever knew just how many cultivation realms and Talents the other had hidden away to catch his opponents off guard. With a saint-like image and the heart of a devil, Theodore Winter entered the fray. Unbeknownst to all, other than returning triumphantly, he was entrusted with another task: To kill Huang Xian’s murderer–his wife, the Heavenly Empress! ------------------------- Read advance chapters (by paying for my meals) on Patreon: • https://www.patreon.com/sh1ro My novel series "Reincarnation Cycle's Unfortunate Bug" on Amazon: • https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYHGRR8M/ Discord Server (currently under construction): • https://discord.gg/NdAjjmXSDh ------------------------- Hi there, this is Shiro / the author.

Later that day, Fin was out on his usual scrap run. The safe zone’s edge was a mess of twisted metal and broken concrete, leftovers from when the first Gates opened. He lugged a heavy bag over his shoulder, his boots crunching on gravel. The air smelled like rust and something faintly sour—probably a dead rat or worse. “Yo, Fin! Hurry it up!” his boss, Greg, yelled from the truck parked a hundred yards away. Greg was a squat, sweaty guy who acted like he was king of the scrap heap. “We ain’t got all day!” “Yeah, yeah,” Fin muttered under his breath. He bent down to grab a jagged piece of rebar, his fingers brushing the cold metal. His power kicked in—useless as ever. He could feel every nick and dent in the steel, like it was whispering its boring life story to him. 'Wow, so thrilling,' he thought sarcastically. That’s when he heard it—a low, guttural growl. He froze. His head snapped up, eyes darting around. The safe zone wasn’t *supposed* to have monsters. That’s why it was called safe. But the sound came again, closer this time, from behind a pile of rubble. “Greg?” He called, his voice shaky. “You hear that?” No answer. The truck’s engine roared to life—Greg was bailing. “Fin, move your ass!” the man shouted before peeling out, dust kicking up behind him. “Seriously?!” Fin dropped the rebar and bolted. He wasn’t a runner, but fear made his legs move faster than he thought possible. The growling turned into a snarl, and he risked a glance back. Something big and scaly was charging after him—green skin, claws like kitchen knives, and a mouth full of teeth that didn’t fit right. A monster. A freaking monster.

In the year 2142, gaming technology has reached unprecedented levels. Noah Kaizen, a 22-year-old gamer, stumbles upon an ancient video game cartridge in his family’s old storage room. Curious, he boots it up on his cutting-edge Quantum Console, which can run even the most primitive of games. The game, "Eclipse of the Gods", is an old, AI-driven medieval action RPG filled with powerful bosses, an intricate world, and a forgotten ending. Noah spends hours grinding and finally defeats the Demon King, the ultimate villain. However, he never completes the final quest—delivering the Demon King's heart to the capital's temple. He assumes it doesn't matter. Eager to play something modern, Noah inserts the latest action RPG game into his console—without removing the old one. Something goes terribly wrong. The two AIs fuse into one, merging their worlds and corrupting the system. A sudden energy surge engulfs Noah, and his consciousness fades into darkness. When he wakes up—he is inside the world of "Eclipse of the Gods." But instead of becoming the Hero, a noble, or a legendary figure... he is reborn as a mere commoner.

In this story, Park Hyun-So was just a typical person you might see walking by; there was nothing particularly noteworthy about him. Up until the day he unexpectedly discovered himself in the omegaverse, a brand-new world, as if his life wasn't already difficult enough, he now had to deal with an entirely new set of risks and difficulties. He began to find himself in quite risky situations before he could hardly learn about the circumstances he was in. Park Hyun-So found himself in this predicament due to the actions of Kim Do-Jin, a well-known scientist in this new world. During one of Kim Do-Jin's experiments, he unintentionally pulled Park Hyun-So into the omegaverse by opening a gateway that connected the human world to it. As they both struggled to find a way to resolve this situation, they realized that their fates were intertwined in ways they never could have imagined. Before the government could find out about Park Hyun-So, they had to come up with a plan to keep him hidden and safe. Their lives were entwined in ways they could never have predicted as they both tried to figure out how to get out of this tragedy. Their connection transcends the boundaries of their worlds, leading them to discover a love that defies all odds. To secure a future together, they must face not just the obstacles of the omegaverse but also their own personal conflicts. What originally prompted Park Hyun-So's appearance in this world? How they will overcome the challenges that await them remains to be seen. Only time will tell.

Putting trust into a stranger is a very risky move, but when you have no other choice, maybe it is not the worst idea out there. Not to mention how if you don't remember anything, it will only makes things a lot worse. But it's all worth it to try and remember what happened that put them into this position.

[WPC MAR 2025 ENTRY] The world changed when the HERO.EXE System activated. Suddenly, everyone gained a hero rank, a level, and unique abilities. Strength was no longer determined by talent or training, only by how well you leveled up. Society evolved into a gamer’s paradise, with Hero Academies, leaderboard rankings, and world-class tournaments deciding who would rise to the top. Takeru Inoue was supposed to be one of them. But when his system booted up, instead of the usual stats screen, he got a single line of text: [Welcome, Beta Tester. Debug Mode unlocked.]

Adrian thought he had bought a game. Instead, the game had bought him. When he booted up War Crown, he expected a night of strategy and conquest. What he got was a contract—one written in blood and bound by fate. His first world, Athenia, teetered on the edge of annihilation. Daemons from the void twisted nature into monstrosities, cities burned in endless rebellion, and a young emperor, Kael, stood alone against the tide. Victory wasn’t just an option. It was survival. The game had spoken: Clear Act 1 before the deadline, or be claimed by the game itself.
