Skull Clad Ichigo

Richard Maddox, a once-promising football prodigy, dreamed of becoming a star. But just as his dream was within reach, it was abruptly shattered when he banged his head on the goalpost, fracturing his skull. Forced into early retirement, Richard vanished from the public eye. People thought Richard Maddox was done for. However, no one expected that during his unconscious state, his spirit detached from his body. He drifted through time, witnessing the world of football from the perspective of a ghost. It was strange, unpleasant, yet exciting. No need for tickets or travel—he could simply fly. England, Italy, Spain, Germany—the best football countries in Europe—and even the passionate South America, the energetic Africa, and the growing Asia—Richard observed the rise and fall of football giants, all from the sidelines. However, watching football from the other side was quite different from experiencing it live. He missed the cheering, singing, and chanting with the other fans. No one could hear him now. No one could watch football with him. He was... alone. Just as Richard was about to be bored to death, his soul was sucked back, and he realized that only an entire year had passed. 'Interesting,' he thought, laughing. “I could bet, invest in companies that will succeed in the future, and get rich. Bitcoin, I'm coming, baby.” but who could have guessed that Richard would dive so deep into the world of football—From owning a single share to testing the waters as a scout, trying his hand as an agent, and eventually stepping into the world of coaching, before finally diving into the realm of football club ownership. It has truly been a full spectrum of football, the highs and the lows. Join us as we welcome Richard Maddox!

"In another life, kitten… may we meet again,” she whispered defeatedly to her lifeless mate. "I promise I’ll make them pay…” she added before she breathed her last too. **** When Alpha Yuzuki loses her mate and family in an ambush by the werewolf king — Kazuya, she swears with her last breath to get vengeance in her next life, hoping to meet her mate again. Twenty-eight years later, Yuzuki is reborn as a powerful werewolf queen, Kuramitsu, whose kingdom is enemies with Kazuya’s. Yuzuki doesn’t mind whatever she has to do to make Kazuya pay, especially when she learns that this queen’s identity has been hidden her entire life. So, when King Kazuya announces a mating ball, Yuzuki is more than glad to go and attend the ball as an unmated wolf. After all, she wants to find her mate in this life, and this is her chance to check the weaknesses of Kazuya’s kingdom too. What better way to start than with Kazuya’s loyal enforcer? ——— Ayami Araki is the most lethal enforcer in the realm who many kings and queens would kill to have on their team — but Ayami has sworn her unconditional loyalty to King Kazuya, who has been nothing but kind to her. She would give up her life for her king without question — until Yuzuki. Despite all the training against being emotional, or even thinking of a mate, Ayami feels it all begins to slip away for Yuzuki. She knows it’s not a good idea, but she wants her, hence her homework. However, Ayami’s findings have her questioning everything she believes in. But she’s loyal, right? What happens when the truths of their past surface? Will Ayami’s loyalty still be steel-clad? Will Yuzuki’s love for her mate remain unconditional when she has to go through Ayami to get to King Kazuya? Will Yuzuki’s mission to eliminate the Kazuya kingdom still stand?

The World Changed Overnight, Without warning, portals from other realms tore through the sky, opening gateways to nightmarish creatures that threatened to wipe out humanity. Cities burned. Nations crumbled. The monstrous invaders—ranging from grotesque goblins to towering beasts—massacred everything in their path. Amidst the chaos, a new force emerged: The Awakened—humans who mysteriously gained supernatural abilities in response to the invasion. Light burst from their bodies, fire ignited in their palms, water coiled into deadly spears, winds howled at their command, shadows shifted with their will. These resemble as Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light, and Darkness—became humanity’s last hope against extinction. Kai Jin. A cold, intelligent high school student from Korea, Kai had long abandoned the idea of relying on others. Orphaned at a young age, he grew up alone in a modest apartment, surviving through sheer will and independence. His past trauma left him emotionally closed off, but beneath his calm, detached exterior, a fire burned—a refusal to ever be powerless again. Then, the portals opened, and his world turned upside down. The night was eerily silent. Kai sat in his dimly lit apartment, eyes locked on his laptop screen. The news was flooded with reports of strange anomalies appearing across the globe—massive gates hovering in the sky, creatures emerging from their depths. Some called it a phenomenon. Others called it the end of the world. Then— Scratch. Scratch. A faint noise echoed from the hallway outside his door. Kai frowned. His neighborhood was quiet at night—too quiet for random footsteps. Then— BAM! The apartment door slammed open. A goblin. Small, grotesque, with sickly green skin, jagged teeth, and glowing red eyes. It sniffed the air, its sharp claws twitching in anticipation. Kai’s breath hitched. His mind raced. He had no weapons. No powers. Nothing but his instincts. Move. Now. The goblin lunged. Kai grabbed the closest thing within reach—a wooden chair—and swung it with all his strength.The impact sent the creature stumbling backward, snarling in rage. His heart pounded. His hands trembled, but he forced himself to stay steady. He couldn’t afford to freeze. He had to kill it. Spotting a kitchen knife on the counter, he dove for it—just as the goblin recovered and charged again. At the last second, he twisted his body, dodging its claws, and in one swift motion— STAB! The knife sank into the goblin’s skull. It shrieked, its body convulsing violently before collapsing lifelessly to the floor. Kai stood there, panting. His clothes were splattered with dark, sticky blood. The room reeked of iron and death. Then— Ding! A floating, translucent system window appeared before his eyes. [Awakening Process Complete.] [Congratulations!] [You have awakened.] Kai’s eyes widened. His nightmare had just begun.

"Have you heard of him?" A small boy tugged at a woman's skirt, his tiny finger pointing at the large portrait of a man clad in a minister’s robe. "Shhh! Don’t say its name!" The woman hushed him, glancing around anxiously. She knew the boy was only curious about the drawing, yet the inscription beside it spoke of someone else entirely. Still, the credit had been given to the man in the portrait. "Why?" "We just... don’t say it." "Are you talking about The Next General?" A man dressed as a scholar interjected, inserting himself into the conversation. "Everyone is talking about it. After a hundred years, it has returned. I can't decide whether that fills me with hope or dread." His words were meant to impress, to showcase his knowledge, but the woman only tightened her grip on the boy, scooped him up, and hurried away like a hunted animal sensing danger. The scholar let out a single sharp laugh. "A chaotic rhythm… and marvellously extraordinary times are upon us," he murmured, before turning and walking away. --- Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.

In his first life as 'Caine Wilson', was the villain—ruthless, cunning, and very powerful. He played his part perfectly, crushing the so-called "protagonist" and parading his enemies, their families, and anyone who crossed him naked through the streets. He watched with glee as the "hero" lay broken, stripped of his dignity, before finally ending his pitiful existence. But just as Caine, thought he had finally won and secured his place at the top, 'Higher ups' intervened. A booming, ethereal voice—like the universe’s pissed-off judge—shook the skies: "You have violated the sacred code of villainy! The villain shall not win. The balance has been broken. Caine Wilson, the world hereby rejects you!" Before he could even enjoy his victory, his world blinked out, like a story whose writer just erased the last chapter in frustration. Everything went dark. And when he awoke, he wasn’t Caine Wilson anymore. He was 'Su Xiaobai', a nobody on 'White Cloud Star', a world of cultivation, martial arts, and endless struggle. But this time, things were different. He could feel it—he could see through the cracks of reality itself. He could break the fourth wall! He wasn’t just some reincarnated soul; he was a villain who had 'seen the system', who understood the game. And he was about to flip it upside down. --------------- A/N: Buckle up, you miserable bunch!

[Author’s Answers To Popular Readers’ Questions] Q: (IHateArjuun77) -Hey author, is your book trash?- A: (Author) -Haha, screw you dear reader. The answer is NO. The story has elements of comedy, action, magic, adventure and Brutality. Like it gets really dark sometimes. There’s a comprehensive story with characters that I tried my damndest to NOT make generic on top of a cool power system that’s for the most part easy to understand. So its not trash. Q: (IFreakingHateArjuun56) -Hey author why is your first volume so slow paced and... trash?- A: (Author) -Haha. It’s how I designed the First Volume to be. It’s a fun setup that doesn’t focus on many things other than the MC’s mentality, powers and route of progression. The next volumes are normal paced, focusing on the world, the villains and general expansion but all while still retaining the book theme and fun experience- Q: (ShadeIsAPervert001) -Hey author, I instinctively sense that I’ll hate this book, when should I drop?

Harley What started as a mindless, blurted confession has turned into a mess I never saw coming—an endless spiral of emotions, tangled with Clad Storm, the bad boy of the season and my ex-crush. The one who’s made it clear he’s here for revenge, yet every time he looks at me with those damn chocolate-brown eyes, I fall deeper. The worst part? I know exactly why he’s here. To make me pay. To make me feel the sting of what happened years ago when I rejected him. But somehow, I can’t walk away. And then there’s the kicker—he made a proposal to my younger sister. But for some reason, he won’t let me go. Now, here I am, stuck between a rock and a hard place, caught in the web of New York’s most notorious biking genius and CEO. I should walk away. I should be the smart one. I should obey my parents’ wishes and do what’s expected of me. But every time he smiles, every time he touches me, I forget what I’m supposed to be doing—resisting him.

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT] The Emperor’s runaway brides have formed a rebel group of scantily clad beauties trained in honey trap techniques. Delphi Chastain is their leader, a fiery beauty with a big axe to grind and a dream of freedom she’s willing to die for. EXTRACT: ““Kiss me baby?” she breathed in her best babydoll voice. “Are you sure?” he growled. She nodded, fluttering her pretty green eyes at him. He didn’t have to be asked twice. Alton pinned her arms above her head and kissed her roughly with all of the force of the desire he was feeling. Three, two, one! she counted in her head. She bit his lip at the same time as she brought her knee up as hard as she could and kneed the man in the groin. He grunted with pain and fell sideways off her, clutching his bollocks. She leapt to her feet and sprinted off, picking up her belongings on the way past. “Thanks for saving me Commander,” she called cheerily at him as she ran away. “Sorry about the crown jewels, but I’m not going back to the palace, so I don’t need them.” Post-WW3 there’s just the Island, and it’s ruled by the Emperor. It’s back to the good old days of polygamy and keeping women covered and chaperoned. The Emperor has raised Delphi and seven other gorgeous girls in the palace to join his harem, training and surgically enhancing them, like treats in a fantasy smorgasbord. But the girls escape and sail off the Island to the uninhabited Mainland, now overrun by mutant tubiàn beasts created as weapons during the War. Hot on their tails are the Emperor’s Honour Guard. Delphi leads the Girls over, under (^_-), and through the enemy, as they battle and tame beasts and men in their struggle to build an army to take down the Empire. Can the girls survive on their own on the Mainland and build a rebel army? Are there any trustworthy men, or are they all the same? Can the Guards resist the charms of the warrior girls?

Shinji and Yumi are a married couple bound by a love so deep that they would die for each other. Their bond transcends mere devotion—Shinji is Yumi’s entire world, his everything, his salvation. In this Omegaverse, Shinji is a powerful Alpha, unwavering and dominant, while Yumi is a delicate Omega, fragile yet filled with a love so pure it consumes him. Shinji, the older by two years, is tall, lean, and undeniably manly. His sharp features, strong jawline, and deep crimson eyes make him a striking figure, commanding attention wherever he goes. Though his white hair is short and neat, there’s an untamed wildness in his aura—a presence that exudes strength and unwavering confidence. His teasing nature often hides the depth of his affection, but there is nothing in this world he treasures more than Yumi. To him, Yumi is his greatest love, his most precious bond, the one thing he would destroy the world to protect. Yumi, on the other hand, is the complete opposite—soft, delicate, and utterly devoted to Shinji. Once haunted by a past filled with pain, Yumi was lost in a world of loneliness, a fragile soul with nowhere to belong. But then he met Shinji, and everything changed. Shinji became his light, his savior, the reason he could finally forget the past and embrace happiness. To him, Shinji is not just his mate—he is his entire universe, the one existence that truly matters. Blessed with the ability to shapeshift, Yumi chose to remain in the form that Shinji adored most—a small, doll-like figure with delicate curves and long, flowing white hair that matched Shinji’s own. His bright blue eyes shimmer with innocence and devotion, a stark contrast to the darkness he once endured. At 4’8”, Yumi is significantly smaller than Shinji, his petite frame only emphasizing the deep contrast between them. Often clad in soft, feminine clothing—cropped tops, shorts, and flowing fabrics that highlight his delicate beauty—he exudes an ethereal, almost otherworldly charm. Their days are filled with endless teasing, passionate kisses, and moments of pure devotion. Shinji never misses a chance to fluster Yumi, delighting in the way his Omega blushes and hides behind his long hair. But no matter how much he teases, his love is unwavering, unshakable. To Shinji, Yumi is everything—his mate, his purpose, his reason to fight. And to Yumi, Shinji is not just his husband, not just his Alpha, but his omniverse—the beginning and the end of his existence, the one who saved him, loved him, and gave him a home.

In the secluded village of Baiyun, nestled amidst misty valleys and towering cliffs, a young boy named Li Wei witnesses a celestial event that changes his life forever. A falling star, unlike any he has seen before, crashes beyond the eastern hills, its golden light pulsing with an otherworldly energy. Drawn by an inexplicable force, Li Wei, accompanied by his sharp-witted friend Mei Ling, ventures into the forest to uncover the star's secrets. What they find is a massive crater housing a mysterious golden orb, which seems to call out to Li Wei. As Li Wei touches the orb, he is engulfed in visions of a crumbling celestial seal, imprisoned demon kings, and a destiny he cannot yet comprehend. The orb bestows upon him a celestial mark, a sigil that pulses with latent power, marking him as the chosen one. But this power comes at a cost. The seal's awakening has drawn the attention of dark forces, including a fearsome Duskfang beast and enigmatic strangers clad in dark robes, who bear the same sigil as Li Wei. Elder Wen, the village priest, reveals the truth: the falling star was a fragment of the Celestial Seal, an ancient artifact that maintains the balance between heaven and earth. Li Wei is now bound to the seal, destined to either restore it or witness the unleashing of the Eight Demon Kings upon the world. As the village is infiltrated by the mysterious Watchers, who seek the seal's power, Li Wei realizes that his quiet life is over. With the weight of destiny on his shoulders and the threat of dark forces closing in, Li Wei must navigate a world of ancient prophecies, celestial power, and looming danger. The seal is breaking, the guardians have fallen, and the fate of the heavens now rests in the hands of a boy from a humble village. The journey ahead is fraught with peril, but Li Wei knows one thing for certain: this is only the beginning.

Gotham is ruled by Clad Belmont—a man powerful enough to defeat the infamous Jack the Reaper and seize control of the city. "What if there’s someone out there even stronger than Jack the Reaper? What will you do then, Belmont?" But when a mysterious new threat emerges, determined to erase Belmont’s legacy, the city spirals into chaos. "I'm Jaxon." "I don’t know where the hell you came from, kid, but this is Gotham. If you want to stay alive, keep your head down and don’t draw attention to yourself." Jaxon, a boy with no past, arrives in Gotham just as the city prepares to unveil a statue in Belmont’s honor. When the event is attacked, he’s faced with a choice: stay in the shadows or step into the light. "If I don’t do something, all these people are going to die right in front of me." As a masked vigilante rises, whispers spread—Jack the Reaper may have returned. "Who the hell is this Black Mask? I want him eliminated immediately." But if Jack the Reaper is truly back… then who is Black Mask? "Gotham, eh? So this is where you’ve been hiding all this time, Jaxon. Well then… it’s time I paid my student a visit." "Impossible." "I’m telling you, sir—Jack the Reaper is back in Gotham."

"My only wish was for you to be mine." The knight stood before him, clad in battle-worn armor, her brown hair had turned red with blood. Her voice wavered, not with fear, but with sorrow. And that was how one of the strongest demon generals fell. Yet the man who delivered the final blow felt no honor, no triumph—only guilt. Venzel stared at the dying woman, the one who had once fought beside him, supported him, believed in him. She had always been there, unwavering. And he had never truly seen her—until now, when it was far too late. But fate is cruel, and regret is relentless. A whisper, a curse, a wish. Time bends for those who seek redemption. If you could turn back the hands of fate, would you? Would you risk everything to correct a single mistake? Would you pay the price—no matter how steep? Because love is not a game. It is not something you can fish from a sea of choices. It is a singular thread, and once severed— It may never be mended.

The Detective had always sought the truth, but some mysteries were never meant to be solved. Obsessed with uncovering the true nature of the realms, his relentless pursuit of knowledge led to a chilling warning—an anonymous caller, a woman’s eerie voice, and a death sentence: "Abandon your search, or you will die in two months." Detective laughed it off. Instead, he made a bet—he would not only expose the truth but also unmask his faceless enemy. Yet, before he could, his own detective organization betrayed him. A bullet tore through his skull, ending his life… or so he thought. When he opens his eyes again, he is no longer The detective. He is now Arka Darshana, an infamous gang leader feared across the underworld. Trapped in a new identity with fragmented memories, burning visions, and a reality that no longer makes sense, Arka must navigate a world where both law and chaos blur. The shadows whisper of a hidden force, one that has been watching him long before his so-called ‘death.’ With his past erased and the future uncertain, Arka is left with only one question: "Did I die… or was I never alive to begin with?" Now, as both the hunter and the hunted, he will push beyond the limits of sanity and truth. Because if reality itself is a lie— Then what was he even trying to uncover?

It's funny, isn't it? Nobody asks to be born... None of us choose the life we are forced to live....And yet, we are bound to it, trapped in a world where strength defines everything. People worship when you are strong. They loathe when you are weak. They worship the god. They fear the devil. But why? Was it righteousness that gave the god victory over the devil, or was it simply strength? Why must we fear one and worship the other? Is the god so righteous? Is the devil so weak? Would Wang Xiao still have everything if he were weak? Would they still worship him? Would those women have submitted so easily? No. It's always the strength. Power rules all. A man can own kingdoms, riches, even love—but lose his strength, and the world turns on him. His woman, the one who once looked at him with admiration, will crush him underfoot if she finds him unworthy. His own children, born of his blood, will stare at him with contempt, their eyes filled with disappointment. What is love if not submission to power? What is loyalty but the price of dominance? Wang Xiao has learned this bitter truth. The sacrifices he made, the pain he endured, meant nothing. Without strength, he was nothing. But no longer... He has seen the lie, the illusion of it all... And now, the ancient myths rise once more, the gods claw their way from forgotten graves, and Wang Xiao, mistaken for the 8th Prince, feared by gods and mortals alike, finds himself at the center of it all. Seven goddesses, each more beautiful, more dangerous than the last, now circle him, bound by fate. Their charm is powerful, their desires even more so. The guardian of the Atlantic tears apart nations to possess him. The Desert Princess offers her entire empire as a gift, yearning for his love... Even an ancient being, her power stripped away, bends her knee in submission, once feared, now powerless before him. But would they have bowed if he were weak? Would they have loved him, served him, feared him? No. It's always the strength. "He 'who' covers the sky with his hand," they whisper. "The gods who once played with universes like orbs... he'll make them swallow their own spit in fear." Wang Xiao's gaze hardens as he stares at his reflection. The weak are forgotten... Strength is all that matters. "The world doesn't care for the weak," Wang Xiao whispers to his reflection. "Your woman will turn her back, people will spit on your name... They'll forget you ever existed... everything you did for them would be insignificant and forgetten...Strength is all that truly matters." And so, Wang Xiao will take what's his. The gods, playing with the universe like toys, will fall. The devils, pulling at the strings of fate, will lose their grip. He will strip them of their power, their kingdoms, their very souls, if that's what it takes. He isn't their pawn. Not anymore. Would they have bowed if he were weak? Would they have given themselves so easily? Would they have even cared? No. It's always the strength. Wang Xiao is no longer the man he once was. No longer human. No longer weak. He is the deviant. And the world will soon know what that truly means. --------------- #NoYuri #NoNTR #Threesome #Harem #Strong to Stronger #Elf #Gore #Evil MC #Conquor #Action #Adventure #Imperial Harem #Revenge #Daughters #Fellatio #Supernatural #Urbanfantasy #Superpowers #Cultivation #Goddess #First-time Intercourse #Villain ---------------- Warning: The Novel is based upon a fictional Earth, and any resemblance is mere coincidence!

Kael awakens in a dark cavern with no memory of who he is or how he got there. With only a mysterious sword at his side, he is drawn toward an ancient archway inscribed with glowing runes. As he steps forward, eerie whispers hint at a cycle that has played out before. Beyond the archway, Kael faces a shadowed figure—a warrior clad in black armor wielding a blade of pure darkness. The entity claims to know him, but Kael cannot recall their past. Forced into battle, he struggles against an enemy that seems untouchable, its form shifting like smoke. Only when he follows an instinctive pull toward the runes does he uncover the truth—his opponent is bound to the shadows, and striking at them weakens it. With this revelation, Kael triumphs, but victory comes with more questions. The trial was only the beginning.

A tale of lost memories, ancient cycles, and an impending destiny begins…
