Buffy Going Through The Motions

There once was a Skeleton Demon King so dreadful that even the gods were vexed by him. “If you do our work for us, we’ll turn you into a human.” However, the gods deceived him with a fraudulent contract and sealed him away. “Now that the Demon King is gone, let’s eliminate all demons.” “For demon subjugation and evangelism alike, let’s entrust it to the precious [Saint] on our behalf.” “As for that insolent Skeleton Demon King… let’s torture him for life, imprisoned within a maggot.” That’s definitely what happened, and yet. “Oh my, baby Saint, you’re awake?” He had become the Saint? Moreover, the son of a Duke of the Holy Empire that sustains the gods? Then, if he destroys this country, won’t the gods also be destroyed? “Oh my, why does the baby Saint seem so pleased?” “Baby Saint, this is the hateful Skeleton Demon King’s toy. Would you like to break it once?” “The great gods have reclaimed everything from the Skeleton Demon King who insolently challenged a god despite not knowing his place.” …Let’s destroy this country. Let’s destroy it while taking the gods’ backbones as well.

[Good news]: She transmigrated into the well-known Phantom of the Opera [Bad news]: It was the horror movie version! After waking up, Bo Li discovered that she had transmigrated to the 19th century. In the 19th century, smog was severe, tuberculosis was prevalent, and sanitary conditions were bleak. It was possible to step into a pile of manure at any moment. To make matters worse, she had transmigrated into a crossdressing circus worker. This was an era where short-haired, pants-wearing women would be harshly judged, so no one doubted her gender. They just thought she was an overly pretty boy. However, as time went on, she would grow taller, and her feminine features would become more obvious. The circus was a mixed crowd. If she didn't leave before adulthood, her crossdressing would be exposed sooner or later. Before leaving, she convinced an abused teenager in the circus to leave with her. She planned on opening a haunted house with him. Author's Note: Bo Li is mentally 6 years older than Eric, but they're physically the same age. Eric is a SERIAL KILLER and extremely possessive of Bo Li. Bo Li will be a little afraid of Erik at the beginning, but she will soon enjoy his behavior. After all, If the male lead's every action doesn't poke at the heroine kinks, then what's the point? One-sentence summary: The male lead is even more yandere than in the original 'Phantom of the Opera'. My Other Works: The Imperial Concubine is the Most Favored in the Harem.

Adam was meant to be among the chosen. Having just graduated from school, he, like others, awaited the start of a new life—a future brimming with possibilities. But instead, the heavens tore open. His classmates were ripped from reality. They were granted powers, a path, a destiny. While they awoke in a new world, he opened his eyes in silence. Amid wreckage, corpses, and rust. Without a gift. Without a map. Without explanation. On a planet where even the air kills, where the darkness whispers with a thousand dead voices. In a world that died long ago—and was never truly alive. A place where no one awaited him, and from which no one emerged unchanged. Now he walks. Through pain, fear, and emptiness. He seeks not power. He seeks truth. Even if it means traversing Hell to find it. Yet this world is but a mask. Reality—a thin, trembling veil over a gaping abyss even gods dared not face. Beneath it lies a whispering darkness, a distorted truth, and a cycle that devours itself… until someone dares descend and shatter the spiral from within.

Ashley Wilson was raised within an affluent and lovely family. This privilege offered her access to a well structured cognitive development. Growing up, she had a top-notch lifestyle, ranging from education to social. She rode on fundamental life’s principles. Her successes were significantly connected to her potent family background, alongside the determination and resolute spirit she exuded. Amidst these advantages, there loomed a major factor that could hinder her from getting the best in life, which was fear. Dispelling that trait would help in maximising her goals. Ashley almost slipped into depression, thinking her dad who happened to be a Lieutenant General was gone, and might not return home, due to a peacekeeping engagement. Her dad occupied an irreplaceable place in their lives. Will her spirit be revivified back to her lively state to keep pursuing her goals back in life? How seamless will her medical school dream be? What significant pressure will her choice of career portend in shaping her psyche and decision making pattern, bringing out a rounded and fulfilled person she had been programmed to be? In some circumstances, she doused the tension of dread or trepidation by bracing up to become successful through the odds. Similarly, her thoughts and decisions were processed to align with some sort of anxiety, dictating her choices. Other events revolved round the minor plot of a male character who was undaunted by his family’s past emotional and mental fear against suppressing his dream of a military career. The novel captures various scenarios of angst following certain occurrences. It’s chronicled through a developmental plot structure of anxiety. It further touches on love, passion, determination, successes and failure explored through diverse characters.

Mikael was once a small-time crime lord in the USA—ruthless, calculated, and always in control. But when the Akashic Records descend upon Earth, offering humanity the chance to rise beyond its limits, everything changes. Thrust into a vast multiverse ruled by strength, Mikael accepts the challenge not for heroism—but for power. In this world of gods, monsters, and ancient legacies, he forges his path with blood, ambition, and cold logic. As he journeys across worlds, mastering deadly arts and forging powerful bonds, Mikael’s rise becomes inevitable. Whether it's clashing with divine beings, taming the forces of cultivation, or winning over remarkable women, his story is one of unrelenting ascension. Ascension Through the Records is a strategic progression fantasy featuring a calm and often indifferent protagonist. Romance, harem dynamics, and R-18 content are present—but never at the expense of story depth or action. Warning: This is not a fanfiction. Although it is possible for him to enter "anime worlds," the main character will never actually enter those worlds. Expectations: A cold protagonist who is largely indifferent to the lives of others. If you are looking for a hero who saves everyone, this story may not be for you. While the main character is capable of love and other emotions, he simply doesn’t care about the fate of strangers. Chapter Length: Approximately 2000 words. Update Schedule: Every day at 14:00 EST. (This is the minimum release rate, but I’ll try to release chapters more often if possible.)

The developers claimed, “Divine Martial Realm is an ordinary virtual game.” Lu Yu was speechless when he read his friend’s warning: there was a high chance of players experiencing brain death in real life when they died in the game. The advertisement claimed, “The producers of Divine Martial Realm are devoted to creating a lifelike gaming world for its players. Each player will get the most authentic experience in the game.” Lu Yu glanced at the iron railing which he accidentally crushed. The game allowed him to experience the effects of cultivation in real life. The fans claimed, “Divine Martial Realm is a thoughtful game that does not have any in-app purchases.” Lu Yu looked at the In-Game Store that only he had and silently made some in-game purchases. A game that could not make any in-game purchases was soulless.
