Yure Aure, a speedrunner known for his absurd stunts and record-breaking runs, thought he had mastered every shortcut, every glitch, and every impossible skip across all the notorious games that were thought as incredibly hard to beat. That is until one fateful day when his biggest glitch hurls him into an entirely different reality—a world that feels eerily like one of his RPG campaigns but without the luxury of quick saves or resets.

"Mana to breathe, mana to eat, mana to fucking live," Inhale: -0.001 MP… oops! You're out of mana points. (Pay-to-breathe RPG.) Humanity's last walled stronghold. _____ In the world Elio lives, every gasp of air comes at a price. A floating indestructible book for every human, a magical system that turns survival into a pay-to-breathe RPG. Here, poverty isn't just being broke, it's choking. Surrounded by barren land and a sea of monsters on top of it (No water, just literal monsters), each day is a suffocating dance of survival, a balancing act between mana for air and mana for food. In this economy, holding your breath isn't just a game, it's a retirement plan. Driven by desperation (and the city's miserly rulers that don’t cut anyone a break), Elio dives into the Book System’s trials to save his family. Along the way, he unlocks powers he didn’t ask for and starts to figure out... Who he really is. Immerse yourself in an adventure where one young man's stubborn refusal to become a statistic could spark a revolution. Who knew being a pain in the system's rear could change the world? Because in Elio's world, breathing is just the beginning of the revolution and... he's gasping for change. But hey, who said saving the world had to be all doom and gloom? Join Elio as he kicks monster butt, uncovers ancient secrets, and maybe, just maybe, figures out how to grow a tree or two along the way. __________ Warning: May contain traces of world domination, an unhealthy obsession with the periodic table, damage points, progression math, and yes, even a sprinkle of that old "power of friendship" magic. Because sometimes, you need a buddy to help you remember which element does what or even help you calculate those sweet, sweet stats. A quick heads-up: Despite what the cover might suggest, this isn’t a hack-and-slash adventure. Think more along the lines of a turn-based RPG, where strategy and choices matter as much as action. Get ready for a different kind of challenge! If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's our first FL crying and crossing the transparent barrier straight into a pixelated, indistinguishable sea of monsters. Because why not mix emotions with chaos? She's crazy like that! (Not really... or is she?) Discord to check the visuals: https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 I’m still working on it in the little moments I find between writing, editing, making more character images, etc. Little by little, we’ll have a Poked... uh, a full SummonDex! Meanwhile, you can check out the ones on Fandom with their... funny descriptions? Or at least I hope so... orz __________ Happy New Year! I just wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all your incredible support. This journey wouldn’t be the same without each of you, and I’m beyond thankful to have you here. May this new year bring you joy, success, and all the things you’re hoping for. Here’s to a brighter future! Thank you for being part of this story. Cheers to 2025! Thank you so much for reading!

Our protagonist is a hillbilly from West Virginia that finds themself in the middle of a summoning between some Necromancers (heavily based and inspired on D&D5e) and a Great Old One. Hijinks ensue. They are genre-savvy about D&D but ignorant about the Xianxia/cultivation world they ends up falling into. You can consider this a somewhat non-traditional Xianxia story, where the MC's "special advantage" that often exists (golden finger in the tropes of the genre) is being a patient low-level Wizard from a D&D campaign. Can our MC cultivate the dao while trying not to go insane due to contact with Great Old One? Can they combine magic and "this newfangled Qi business"? We'll see!

This is the tale of an average nobody, who after his death got transmigrated in a new world. The memories of his average life flashed before his eyes, as he found nothing that was noteworthy about him. So in this new world should he try to change that, should he wish to be supreme, rise to the peak or to rule the heavens, but he's too lazy for that. "And how come all the names are so familiar. Don't tell me, am I in that novel?" Soon after waking up he realised this world was based upon the very first novel he read years ago. At first he felt happy that finally something unexpected happened in his life. But that happiness was short lived as he remembered the plot of the book and the crisis that was coming for the world. If that wasn't enough he was living in the body of Rio Raven Blake - avatar of Nyx. Known by his other names like The last dark spawn, The first fallen or The infamous Devil. In a world brimming with dungeons, towers, Gods, Demons, monsters and magic - our MC finds himself trapped in the body of the last villain. "I don't care about the novel plot, I'll just ignore it, and live my life peacefully." At least that was his plan, until he heard a voice in his head , that he's been waiting for all this time. [DING] [TING] [TIDING] [DID YOU MISS ME??? ] 'The great villain system, what a funny name.' You can earn points by ruining the plotlines, and can get whatever you want. Let me see, I'm a master at messing things up. [What, someone is going to do a prophecy that I will become the villain after growing up - kill him while he's still a kid.] [what, this potion was made for the protagonist and the alchemist heroine - I'll take it with me.] [ohh you're the one who saves the protagonist when he was about to die - go to prison, you traitor.] [wait, you have a sister. but she is sick and needs help - here take this potion and work for me.] Got a money making slave for life. [What, my parents are fixing my engagement with the princess, who's also a main heroine, but will betray me later and help everyone kill me - Humph...just you wait...] Once the plot started many years later, at the academy entrance exam. Protagonist was shining brightly, breaking all records, taking first rank, but no one was talking about him. As the news came out that the genius of humanity Rio Blake, will be joining the academy too. Not only mortals, even Gods and Demons were surprised at this sudden development too. {Nyx nods at her believers achievements} {Odin says you've grown a lot} {Gauri/Kali challenges you to fight her believer} {Jesus prays for your souls redemption} {Anubis awaits your enemies doom} {Lucifer writes down your lines, as you take on the Devil persona} The protagonist just stared at the guy who took all the limelight from him, but his surprise turned to shock, when his sister ran and hugged the man, while crying her eyes out, saying she missed him and she was sorry. "What is happening? Who is he? {Apollo curses...} ## -- A/N - 1) NO HAREM. (I believe in soulmate love 2) MC doesn't care about right, wrong, good, evil - as long as he gets what he want, he'll do it. 3) He hates the so called righteous hypocrites, so don't think he'll be friends with protagonist. 4) MC is serious when it comes to relationships, so don't expect any kind of pokemon collection harem. 5) MC hates the plot, so he'll ruin it. Do not expect him to follow it or him trying to keep it same as written. 6) I don't like hiding my strength tropes, so not happening. He will be OP, and a badass. ## -- Join my discord for character arts and discussions https://discord.gg/zFTJsYP7kM DevilDarkness#0506

After finishing a campaign with friends the DM, Nicole Pageau, finds herself trapped in her BBEG and tries to live a better life.

In the year 3147 the Roman Imperium had finally achieved its goal of colonizing its own corner of the galaxy. Unlike in our own world the Rome of this one never fell, but instead grew to encompass the whole of the earth, and overtime spread itself, and humanity, among the stars. Yet even with the marvelous advancements in technology, healthcare, welfare, and every other category required for a thriving society. There is still one roman tradition that refuses to die. GLADIATORS!! And we should all be glad for it, because during the year 3149, just two years after the long and exhausting colonization campaigns were ended, mankind learned that it was not alone in the galaxy, let alone the universe. It had just stepped onto a much bigger stage where entire planets and even star systems were used as bargaining chips in universal gladiator games. Wars on a galactic scale are far too destructive to simply be allowed, if left unchecked the vast majority of life in the universe would cease to be. Therefore each race recognized by the galactic or universal council (it changes depending on the scale of the race itself) must submit champions or gladiators to represent them in the games. The winners gain unfathomable rewards, the losers perish or worse have their entire species enslaved. Please join our hero as he embarks upon his own perilous journey as a lanista, will he rise above the masses, or fall like so many others before him? Or perhaps his own latent gifts may bring him to a height, or depth hitherto unexplored by any before.

This is a story about a Villain and a Witch. Please note that this work will also be made available on Scribblehub and Royal Road, in addition to its initial publication here. Three years ago, the sky over the magical world of Nethermere cracked, spewing spaceships from a so-called "superior" civilization. Their invasion? A spectacular flop. King Burn of Soulnaught—the most powerful man alive, a tyrant, and a genius—crushed them. Or so the legend goes. But the invaders stayed, hawking shiny tech and worming their way into Nethermere’s future. Colonization loomed. Burn wasn’t having it. If anyone was going to conquer the world, it’d be him. And he succeede—nope. She happened. A maddeningly beautiful witch reset time itself—seven loops—undoing everything Burn worked for. Her curse turned him into a pawn in her twisted game. "Why? You're wondering if I've trapped you in a time loop?" she taunted, all smiles. "It’s not just a spell but a curse! Dear Villain, you are now Witchbound!" Burn, furious and cursing her name, didn’t know what infuriated him more: her power, her schemes, or the fact that her presence tempted him in ways he didn’t dare admit. Usually, the devil did the tempting. But when the angel was this seductiv—COUGH—manipulative, even the devil felt the chill. What to expect from this story: A time-loop-checkpoint conquest story where the end goal is conquering the universe. The MCs? A genuine, unapologetic villain rocking the Lawful Evil vibe and a devastatingly beautiful Chaotic Good witch. Dripping with sarcasm, paired with slow-burning worldbuilding so you'll figure things out as you go. It’s medium-paced, tackling heavy topics like politics, war, and tight plotting—but don’t worry, it's squeezed in romance-comedy breaks to keep you breathing. Speaking of romance, it’s one of the major centerpieces of the story. One female lead, no romantic drama. But beware: this story might have too much romance for you to handle. If you’re afraid of that, well... only cowards skip out on romance! Expect a cocktail of classic high fantasy tropes blended with science fiction. Think modern isekai/gate/space vibes, featuring magic, mecha, strong-to-stronger characters, manipulative masterminds, and deliciously insane moments. Add to that: character growth, intricate connections, a Seinen demographic focus, kingdom building, military campaigns, world invasions, an apocalyptic tone, and sprinkles of legends, myths, world lore, and fairy tales. You’re welcome.

Imagine a gamer, so skilled he bends reality itself (or so he thought). One moment he's conquering virtual worlds, the next, he is *in* the world. Trapped within the hyper-realistic game, he faces foes far more terrifying than any pixelated monster, forbidden magic, dark powers, and a looming darkness that threatens to consume not just his avatar, but his very soul. Will he find a way back, or is he destined to become a legend…or a ghost? The line between game and reality blurs, leaving him questioning: is this escape, or a fate worse than death?, would he be able to claim what he came that far for? and what happens when he begins to question reality as he discovers that he was in a simulation before he got sealed in the game ---------------------------- Excerpt: Where am I?" Blaze thought as he looked about in an empty room filled with nothing but an active mist of darkness. At this moment, Blaze was conflicted and the feeling of anxiety coupled with a foreboding sense of insecurity made him feel discomfort. "The last thing I remember was, me being in my gaming room rejoicing after finally defeating the final boss in the game when a notification suddenly pops up..." Blaze thought for a while and suddenly it came back "the notification!!,they promised me a cash reward of 10million dollars if I could complete the final task. So…,is this the final task. Sitting in a dark room without furniture,I can totally do it. After that,that cash reward would be mine!". Everytime Blaze thought of the cash reward, he'd be distracted from his thought. He stayed there for 3 hours, sometimes standing up to walk around the room which seemed as though he was walking around in circles, which also confuzzled him. How'd he know that he was there for 3 hours?, after sitting for a while, a digital clock suddenly appeared and what confused yet scared him, was the fact that the clock seemed to follow him everywhere he went. 30 minutes in, he heard a **PING** sound and a voice suddenly said "System Online- Welcome User 432234!". ________________________________ WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT, READ NOW TO FIND OUT MORE!!……… Update between Monday - Friday (seldom Saturday)!!.

Investing in Ethereum (ETH) seemed like a promising opportunity, fueled by my skepticism toward fiat money and decades-long preference for alternative mediums like computers. Intrigued by cryptocurrency and its potential, I encountered an aggressively advertised second-generation bank trading app claiming monopolistic exclusivity and future rewards through its wallet. Their professional branding, assurances of regulation, and convincing logos made the offer seem legitimate. I conducted due diligence—verifying the bank’s registration, legitimacy, and operational hours. However, scammers are often steps ahead of regulators. Sophisticated phishing campaigns and fraudulent websites mimicking legitimate entities made their scheme convincing. I sent BTC as an initial investment, only to realize it was a scam. The untraceable nature of cryptocurrency made recovery seem impossible. Bitcoin, often exploited by fraudsters, is two and a half times more likely to be used in investment-related scams than other payment methods. Fortunately, I recovered a significant portion of my funds with the help of **Dunamis Cyber Solution Recovery**, restoring both my finances and my confidence. This experience taught me the importance of vigilance, thorough research, and seeking professional assistance when needed. I emerged smarter and more determined to avoid similar pitfalls in the future. contact@dunamiscybersolution.com +13433030545 Dunamiscyber@solution4u.com

every chapter is 2500 words long and will have 1999 chapters. 35 new chs/week "The Conqueror's Path" is an epic tale that follows the life, struggles, and triumphs of Alexander the Great, exploring the intricacies of his rise to power, the complex relationships he formed, and the profound impact he had on the ancient world. From his childhood under the tutelage of Aristotle to his unstoppable military campaigns across Persia, Egypt, and into India, Alexander’s journey is one of ambition, destiny, and inner conflict. As he pushes the boundaries of what is possible, Alexander must grapple with the cost of greatness—his identity, his morality, and the fate of those closest to him. The novel intricately weaves together the political, military, and personal facets of Alexander's life, presenting his growth as both a leader and a man. It delves into his friendships and rivalries, the burdens of leadership, and the ethical dilemmas of conquering foreign lands. At its heart, it questions the meaning of power and whether one can ever truly fulfill their destiny without losing themselves in the process.

Narrated by yours truly, Serpentine. Alright, listen up, fellow fourth-wall enthusiasts and meta-maniacs, because this isn't just any story—this is the story. A story of grit, chaos, betrayal, revolution, and crowdfunding. This is the tale of a once-mighty (and devilishly handsome) Ascended Demon – you guessed it, me – who dared to defy the universe itself to create something greater than Fate: an anime. Now, you might be wondering, “But Serpentine, aren’t you supposed to be a rogue cosmic entity tangled up in an interdimensional tournament orchestrated by the Primordials to achieve universal balance?” To which I’d say, “Yes. But have you seen the budget Primordials allocate to logistics? Absolutely criminal. Somebody had to step in and make sure the real priorities – like making a quality Wheel of Faith anime animated by Ufotable – got the attention they deserved.” The Kickstarter Chronicles isn’t just a book. It’s a revolution. It’s a declaration. It’s a movement (patent pending). Over 200 chaotic, hilarious, and occasionally heartfelt chapters, I’ll be gathering allies, facing impossible odds, and navigating the wild world of interdimensional politics. And all the while, I’ll be rallying you – yes, you, reader! –to support The Wheel of Faith campaign, the very foundation of this sprawling, multiverse-spanning saga. Want to meet canon characters from every corner of the Wheel? They're here. Want to see fan-submitted fighters duke it out with insane powers? Possibly. Want to join the chaos yourself? Well, you can! Every like, share, and dollar raised adds fuel to this cosmic fire. And if you're broke? No sweat. Spread the word. Join the Discord. Become part of the legacy. This isn’t just a book you read. It’s a campaign you live. It’s about all of us coming together to build something extraordinary – while I dodge death beams, manage questionable alliances, and try not to completely unravel the fabric of the multiverse. Again. And don’t worry. No spoilers here. But let’s just say, by the end of this story, you’ll be (hopefully) laughing, crying, and maybe even reaching for your wallet. So what are you waiting for? Join the Wheel of Faith campaign today! --- Oh hey, I'm on Royal Road now. Follow [The Serpentine] on Royal Road for more!

Alara Bennett had the world at her feet. With her striking features, confident strut, and a portfolio boasting magazine covers like Vogue and Elle, she was the face of every trending fashion campaign. Beside her stood Ethan Carter, a heartthrob actor whose talent and charm had landed him leading roles in blockbuster films. Together, they were the it couple: perfect, glamorous, and unattainable. Their relationship had been mostly private. Occasionally, they'd share a candid photo on Instagram—Ethan with a goofy grin and Alara in one of her signature oversized hoodies. Fans adored them, coining hashtags like #Ethara and #GoalsForLife. But fame always came with a price. Ethan’s latest movie, Shadows in the Rain, paired him with Scarlett Leigh, a rising actress known for her sharp wit and electric chemistry with her co-stars. From the moment the trailer dropped, fans went wild. Ethan and Scarlett’s steamy scenes were dissected and replayed endlessly, flooding TikTok with edits set to romantic music. Instagram buzzed with captions like: “Scarlett and Ethan >>> any couple ever #ShadowsInTheRain” (560k likes) “Can they just date already? The chemistry is unreal!” (312k comments) Alara scrolled through her feed, her chest tightening. She wasn’t jealous of Scarlett—she knew how professional Ethan was and how close they were as friends. But the overwhelming fan response planted seeds of doubt in her mind.

[Mature Content] ||| this is a fantasy soulmates romance set in an Urban setting with lots of deeply traumatic backstories and many deaths on the way, in a magical ancient academy, and with one of the main plots being revenge. there are countless types of mythical creatures and all coexisting in our very world. ||| dual point of view one love interest ||| As I closed the portal I opened with my spatial magic after both of my idiotic brothers crossed it, they turned to me with a wide and mischievous grin and before I could open a portal to get out of here, Apollo held me back by my forearm and Atlas took my ear pods out of my ears. I hate when he does that. Can they understand that if I'm with pods on, it's 'cause I have no intention of talking with people? "...phone?" I blinked and stared at my snow-white haired brothers, wondering how would I look if I had their snow wavy hair and golden eyes instead of how I came out. I mean, I do magically dye my hair crimson red and use golden lens since ever, but my actual looks are nothing like that. I didn't really took dad's hair or his midnight blue eyes, or mom's golden eyes and her baby pink wavy hair either. I'm just... Weird. Hot? Absolutely. But weird. Thankfully my brothers no better than to tell anyone about how I actually look like. In fact, it's been such a long time since I just rested in front of anyone, including, looking like I naturally am, that they might have forgotten it by now. Also another reason why I don't shift into my dragon in front of absolutely no one, except when I'm in a personal training in vacation with dad, even though he's not a dragon but a vampire, I feel okay to be myself for once. Even more comfortable than I feel with my two brothers. Maybe 'cause I'm bitter that I don't look like them or our parents at all. I mean, my features are a bit like mom were, according to dad, but it's been 9 years now, as painful as it is to admit, I don't remember mom so vividly anymore. One more reason for me to kill Lust-Rhae Evangeline Python, the Archangel Queen, that fucking bitch who killed mom after she killed her husband by self-fucking-defense after he attacked her. I mean, what did she expect? That the Dragon Queen would just watch Wrath-Grey Zade Cervenka try to kill dad and be fucking okay with it? Fuck no. They were mates after all. The Demon King brought that to himself, but that bitch couldn't handle it and came after mom when dad wasn't around and killed her. In front of me. And I am supposed to put up with her rebel twin kids, Pride-Niklaus and Vain-Dove? You really think that would be a good idea? I want to kill both of them before I kill her, just for her to taste how it feel to have a loved one being killed right on front of you as you watch it helplessly. ||| English is not my first language.
