Mihawk Smile At Zoro'S Bounty

"Leo's innocence was shattered the day he witnessed a horror he could never forget which he wished so badly his innocent eyes didn’t witness . His elder brother, once a guiding light, plunged a knife into their father's chest, and walked away with a chilling smile. Leo, still a child, was frozen in terror, his playful nature replaced with a haunting dread. He hid in the shadows, his camera still rolling, capturing the sinister act. As the brother vanished, Leo crept out from under the table, his legs trembling like leaves. He approached his father, whose eyes pleaded for silence. "Dad, what happened? Should I call for help? You're bleeding...you look so sick." His father's voice was barely audible, but the urgency was clear. "Leo, listen carefully. The safe...it's yours now. Only your fingerprint can open it. Never let anyone near it. The truth you seek, it's all inside. When your grandfather comes, go with him, take the safe, and leave with him. Protect it with your life." With those final words, his father's eyes glazed over, and he slumped back in his chair, leaving Leo alone with the weight of a dark secret." a slow peace novel love burning within umm hope you would love it coz am inlove with it already love you future readers

When a mountain comes to life, awakening its consciousness, it takes on another form—a Mountain Spirit. And that’s me reborn with extraordinary Divine powers. Want to know what these divine powers are? Well, one of them allows me to accelerate herb growth—up to one hundred times faster! Impressive, right? But wait, there’s more! I also possess a ‘golden finger’—which is ‘Space-Time’ system that lets me fish for lost techniques, weapons, pill formulas, and other treasures from the rivers of time and space. With these at my disposal, I’m sure to become stronger, at least stronger than the beautiful sect master who claims my mountain as her personal retreat and constantly drag me into her matters. It’s not an easy life, but no need to worry! I’m not just any spirit—I’m a human spirit born from a mountain, which means I have an extraordinary talent for cultivation. To top it off, my system was generous enough to grant me a divine cultivation technique right from the start. There’s just one tiny problem: it’s a dual cultivation technique, and I need a partner to cultivate it. So, I had no choice but to convince the sect master’s stunning disciple to help me out. I mean, it’s not like I’m after her gorgeous long legs, her curvaceous thighs, or her… well, you get the point. I’m just a humble cultivator trying to grow stronger by any means necessary. If only she’d run into some trouble, so I could swoop in and save the day. That would make things a lot easier for me… but alas, life is never that simple. Still, I’ll find a way. With my Space-Time system, my mountain’s power, and a little charm, I’ll outgrow this mountain and surpass everyone—even the sect master. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll enjoy the beauties along the way. *** No NTR, No Yuri, No Yaoi *** LinkTree- https://linktr.ee/Around_The_Moon Discord- https://discord.gg/zTgR9VFduX

The boy returns to his old class and faces his ex-bullies as 'Jenn', a perfect girl that everyone loves. “All I wanted was to finally live a normal life. Rather than brooding over what happened before, I did my best to move forward without looking back. The very person that drove me to jump off that bridge on that day sat right behind me in class and I had to see him again every single day, but I still did what I could to stay positive. I didn’t want to have anything to do with these guys ever again. My body was still lying in the hospital bed in a coma with one leg missing. All because of these motherfuckers. But I still managed to have a laugh or two a day, actually more than that as each day passed by. I made more friends than I’ve ever had. I was trying out new things that I could never do before. The past was horrible but the present and the future looked bright. I could not forget or forgive what happened before, but I did not let myself be swallowed up by past suffering. But on this day, everything became clear. Every single one of them deserved to die.”

Longing. It was a feeling he knew all too well. He longed for many things, knowing full well he might not be able to attain any of them.

A smile. It's an expression that I think is the most beautiful thing one could witness. A genuine smile is filled with so much beauty behind it, which is why I think it's so beautiful. But I lost my smile, long ago, because of my past. But I wasn't alone, there was someone like me, and it's Veronica. I don't know how, or when, but she also lost her smile because of a past experience that took away her smile for good. Getting closer to her, I realized that she returned my smile... my smile that I had lost for so long. She lifted the walls that surrounded me, just by being herself. And now, I want to do the same for her, I want to bring back her smile, I want to break through the wall that separates me from her, I want her to open up to, I want her to see me as her friend like how I see her as a friend, and most of all, I really, really, really... want to see her smile. No matter how long it takes me, I'll wait, just to bring back her smile, like how she brought back mine.

In a world that has long felt too ordinary for Kira, everything changes the day a mysterious and impossibly gorgeous deity descends from the sky. Announcing the start of a deadly and transformative game called the ACTS, the deity reveals that Earth’s inhabitants must now fight for their survival, facing 30 brutal and unpredictable trials. Each participant is granted a unique power, a starting skill that will be their lifeline through the Acts. For Kira, this is no nightmare—it’s the moment he’s been waiting for his entire life. While others panic and crumble in fear, Kira embraces the chaos with excitement, finally feeling alive in a world that had always bored him. The deity’s promise is simple: Survive each Act, grow stronger, and ascend to godhood. But the journey won’t be easy. PvP and PvE challenges, hostile environments, and the other participants themselves stand between Kira and his dream. Alongside nine other MVP candidates, Kira must rise to the top and secure his place as the ultimate champion. As the First Act begins, Kira chooses the path of Shadow Manipulation, unlocking powers that allow him to control darkness itself. With each Act more dangerous than the last, Kira will have to rely on his wits, strength, and skill if he hopes to become the one to ascend to godhood—and rule over this new, ruthless world.

Just when you think you loved the wrong person, you meet the right one who reminds you what love truly is. And just like that, the fairytale begins. ———————- Lily's life was apparently perfect, she had a good work that kept her occupied for the majority of her time and a husband she deeply and devotedly loved. The women in the city enviously hated her for having the perfect life they all dreamed about. Until the workaholic girl's perfect life image falls apart when her husband leaves her at the altar and confesses he cheated on her, in front of everyone. After that day, her life doesn't appear so perfect to the women in the city that now laughed behind her back. The poor Lily never felt more pathetic in her life and she wished the ground would swallow her down for the embarrassment she felt in the second he declared he had seconds thoughts. The same day, three hours and about four drinks later, Lily was enough dizzy to finally rebel against her (almost) husband's despicable gesture. She wanted to prove to all the people who called her perfect and who said she would never do something aberrant and crazy by having one night of passion with a mysterious man at the club. Little did she knew that the man was none other than the richest man in the city. Cover was commissioned! Do not use! Join the server for free coins -> Discord server: https://discord.gg/FpMxgdeAf7
