Bake Kujira Smite

Wen Qiao had transmigrated into a book, becoming a notorious, brainless, and easily replaceable vase-like minor celebrity. The worst part was that the first scene she entered was literally a path to disaster; at her own engagement party, she was plotting to seduce the male lead into an irrevocable situation, not to mention that she wanted to break off her engagement with her wealthy, handsome fiancé! Wen Qiao stated, "This cannon fodder script must be changed!" Thus, netizens saw a dramatic transformation in Wen Qiao, who previously had been utterly lovesick and only chased after a man. She became a living, breathing person who aggressively won awards until her hands were sore. Moreover, she had a group of men chasing after her. At the height of her career, Wen Qiao suddenly went public with her sweet relationship with a business tycoon. At the award ceremony, when reporters asked if she planned to marry. Wen Qiao, holding her trophy, had an answer that turned heads, "No, why would I give up the whole forest for one tree?" A couple of days later, Wen Qiao posted a photo of her marriage certificate online with the caption— From now on, I'm Mrs. Fu. Netizens: Didn't you say no marriage? - The super-topic about "Wen Ji and Qi Wu," a couple made popular by a variety show, disappeared overnight. Netizens: ?? Where's my shipped couple? Fu Jinghen: I took care of it. How could my wife be paired up with someone else?

He was a wolf in the shadows, destined to lead a hidden world. He was just a boy baking dreams into cinnamon rolls. Fate didn't ask if they were ready- it simply collided their worlds. A slow-burn, forbidden romance between an innocent baker and a dangerous wolf shifter

A mage from distant lands. Hated by the world, she carries its secrets to the lands of the immortal, the demonic and the divine, while being harassed by a certain Dark Lord. --- Author's note: I got bored so, I made this. My grammar isn't the best, plus I'm starting to suspect both my breaking keyboard and failing autocorrect is scheming against me, so sorry about that. I made this while drawing inspiration from my half-baked knowledge of different stuff I've read as well as a story I wrote in secret back in high school (that I never showed anyone, or finished). I wanted to include as many different things as I possibly could when i started writing this stuff which is probably why it is such a mess (especially the names. I wanted to use names from different places in the world, but it got confusing.) I don't want to offend anyone or make any statements on anything in my writing. It is mostly just for self-amusement. That being said, if you like it then good for you. And if you don't, then why are you still here? Shoo! Go! Get out of here! Anyways, enjoy! Oh look! My note is longer than the synopsis! Lets make it longer! Oh look, a butterfly! Whee! Byeeeee!

I'm also uploading this on royalroad under the profile https://www.royalroad.com/profile/751665 You know Truck-kun. The chrome-gleaming, destiny-delivering cosmic entity responsible for everyone else's glorious second chances in a fantasy world. Well, I am Truck-kun. Or, rather, I was. Turns out, being the universe's busiest reincarnation service comes with a mountain of cosmic paperwork, an aggressively cheerful HR department, and absolutely zero paid vacation. One catastrophic "System Overload" and an "Unplanned Recall" later, I, the professional harbinger of plot, found myself unexpectedly isekai'd. Not as an overpowered hero, mind you, but as "Leo": a squishy, bipedal human with a horrifyingly intact consciousness, a pulse (ugh), and a brand-new body that hurts when I think about it. My new "life" comes with a glaring, glitchy HUD. Apparently, I'm now a "MAJOR VILLAIN" with a primary directive to "CAUSE PROBLEMS ON PURPOSE." Problem is, my powers—which basically turn me into a walking, accidental demolition derby—have a nasty habit of doing the exact opposite of villainy. I try to make a dramatic entrance, I accidentally save a bus full of orphans. I attempt grand larceny, I accidentally organize a charity bake sale. My "Villainy Points" are currently a dismal negative, while my "Hero Affection" keeps alarmingly skyrocketing. To make matters worse, the universe’s most annoyingly enthusiastic rookie hero, Solar Seeker (Warning: Excessive Hair Gel Usage), keeps showing up, convinced I'm some kind of misunderstood anti-hero. And don't even get me started on the system that keeps demanding I "commit an atrocity to continue" while simultaneously offering "Tax Evasion" as a villainous act. Meanwhile, the original Truck-kun (me, from another cosmic timeline) is still out there, rampaging across dimensions, causing the very reality I'm stuck in to glitch. So now, I, a former god of vehicular homicide, am stuck trying to be a villain, constantly failing upwards into accidental heroism, all while avoiding HR, actual villains, and the existential dread of having feet. Join Leo – the reluctant, burnt-out villain who just wants to clock out – as he navigates a world that refuses to let him be evil, proving that sometimes, the most spectacular failures lead to the most annoying amount of XP. Get ready for: System errors, accidental good deeds, heroes with bad knees, and a lot of grumpy monologuing.

In his last life, Prince Aleric got cheated on, blamed for everything, and died like a dramatic side character. This time? He’s not falling in love. He’s marrying some exiled noble with no soul weapon, no personality, and no future. Kael Valen was supposed to be safe. Emotionless. Forgettable. Then Aleric accidentally awakened the ancient holy sword. Kael smiled. And the murders began. Turns out Kael is the reincarnated God of Destruction. He's also weirdly clingy, emotionally unstable, and thinks “acts of devotion” include blowing up palaces and baking terrible cookies. Now Aleric lives in a haunted mansion with his suspiciously affectionate husband, sits on the imperial throne without permission, and is constantly trying to stop Kael from killing people mid-tea. He wanted quiet revenge and financial security. What he got was a golden retriever husband with abandonment issues and a divine kill count. Aleric: “Kael, you can’t just behead people because they looked at me.” Kael, smiling with blood on his hands: “But you looked uncomfortable.”

In the 3,476th year of the Celestial Calendar, the Heavenly Emperor—whose divinity was rivaled only by his boredom—rewrote the Immortal Code of Gender Assignments during a particularly uneventful spring. According to Clause 89, Subsection Moonlight, Paragraph Absolutely-Not-Optional, any being born with an overwhelmingly high-yin spiritual constitution could only, by universal decree, be classified as female. It was simple. Efficient. Divine. Except… someone made a mistake. A mortal child was born deep within the darkest stretch of the Eternal Spirit Forest, surrounded by mist, mystery, and mushrooms that sang lullabies. He was bright-eyed, soft-voiced, high-yin… and very, very male. The thunder cracked the day he laughed. A white wolf howled. A snake offered him venom like warm milk. The trees whispered ancient songs. And the heavens? Well, they began preparing lightning bolts on standby—just in case someone down there got too clever and said something like: “Wait… is that a boy?” Boom. Thus began the most unusual cultivation tale in ten thousand realms. A tale of a child raised by beasts, mistaken for a goddess, blessed with yin that could stop hearts, and cursed with thunder that would smite anyone who dared question the Heavenly Code. This is the story of Xiulan. Or as the forest calls him: “Our beautiful, powerful, emotionally unstable daughter.” Or as heaven calls him: “ERROR 404: Gender Not Found.”

The strongest hero in the world… has no idea what the hell he’s doing. For five years, he wrote a fantasy webnovel about the most overpowered protagonist imaginable. A flawless, dramatic, world-shaking hero with a name so long it might actually summon something if said aloud. But after an untimely death, the author wakes up in the body of his own creation, Lucien Aetherion Valeforge, Archmage of the Ninth Flame, Scion of the World Tree, Savior of Realms, etc., etc. Now trapped in the very world he built, one riddled with plot holes, half-baked side quests, and a barely functional magic system, he has no choice but to pretend he knows what he’s doing. Unfortunately, the world isn’t playing along. The villain seems dangerously self-aware. The party he wrote as jokes now has real personalities, real problems, and real trauma. His most powerful spells come with side effects he never bothered to define. And worst of all? Everyone expects him to act like the perfect hero he never actually was. Armed with absurd power and absolutely zero preparedness, he’ll have to navigate his own unstable story, dodge his own writing mistakes, and try not to accidentally destroy the world he once created just for fun.

[Warning: You’re about to meet the laziest, dumbest, most annoying MC ever. If yelling at idiots brings you joy, or if watching someone waste insane opportunities is your idea of fun—this is your story.] "Automation isn’t enough of a cheat? Fine, guess I’ll automate CHEATING too," says Lu Sheng, a man so lazy he makes procrastination look like a martial art. Scammed in Hell and roped into working for the Hell Guardians, Lu Sheng’s only talent is avoiding work. Luckily, he somehow scored an Automated System that does all the fighting, thinking, and surviving for him. Now he can sit back, relax, and… oh, wait. Turns out even Hell can’t handle his laziness. From accidentally defeating bosses while taking naps to pissing off demons just by existing, Lu Sheng’s "efforts" bring chaos everywhere he goes. Will his half-baked plans backfire spectacularly, or will the universe just throw its hands up and let him win out of pure exhaustion? This is a story about a guy who cheats at cheating, somehow survives Hell, and makes you want to scream at him every step of the way. -------------------- #ACTION #ADVENTURE #SYSTEM #WEAKTOSTRONG #CULTIVATION #OVERPOWERED #TRANSMIGRATION #ISEKAI #KINGDOMBUILDING #XIANXIA Sorry, guys, no smut, no harem, no romance, no slice of life, no power of friendship.

In the heart of the vast and mysterious Sahran Wastes, twelve-year-old Zayd lives a quiet life in the sun-baked village of Qalat, where ancient stories are passed down like heirlooms. But one evening, as the desert wind turns strange and the air carries the scent of smoke and honey, Zayd stumbles upon a glowing glass lamp buried in the sands—an object unlike anything he's ever seen. Drawn by a force he cannot explain, Zayd touches the lamp and is thrust into a surreal vision: a dark realm of stars, swirling light, and a shadowy figure who calls him "Bearer of the Flame." When the vision ends, the world is the same—but Zayd is not. As the flame awakens, old powers stir, and ancient prophecies begin to breathe again. Zayd doesn't understand what he's been chosen for—but one thing is clear: The desert is no longer silent. And Zayd's destiny has just begun.

But Claire isn’t looking for love—not yet.

In the glittering, snake-infested court of Ignis, where power was a double-edged sword and loyalty a rare gem, Selanthia Amaris Nyxveil stood as a legend cloaked in infamy. Known by many names—*The Hound of the Emperor*, **The Cursed Sword*, **The Witch of Nyxveil*, and *The Abandoned One*—she was a weapon forged by duty and sharpened by betrayal. For forty long years, she served as the Emperor’s blade, cutting down threats to the throne with ruthless precision. Yet, behind the cold steel and the icy gaze, Selanthia harbored no love for the crown or the vipers who surrounded it. She was a woman bound by fate, not choice. At 48, weary of the endless machinations of the court, Selanthia chose to retire. With no family to call her own, she left behind the gilded cage of Ignis for the simplicity of the countryside. Her dreams were modest: to bake sweet treats, tend to chickens, lose herself in books she’d never had time to read, and find solace in the quiet rhythm of church prayers. A peaceful, ordinary life—a stark contrast to the blood-stained path she had walked for decades. But fate, it seemed, had other plans. Just 28 hours into her newfound tranquility, Selanthia’s life was brutally cut short. Poisoned and attacked in the dead of night, she breathed her last beneath a cold, uncaring sky. Her final thoughts were not of vengeance or regret for the life she had led, but of the life she had never known. She wished for love, for a kind and handsome partner, for children whose laughter might have filled the void in her heart. She wished she had never taken up the sword, that she might have written a different ending to her tale. Yet, death was not the end. Selanthia awoke not in the afterlife but in a world both familiar and strange. Perched high in a cherry blossom tree, she was greeted by the voice of Rina, her long-dead confidante. Now, thrust into a bewildering new reality, Selanthia must unravel the threads of this strange second chance. Is this a cruel jest of the gods, a dream spun from her dying regrets, or something far more sinister? And why, of all people, THAT MAN—who disappeared without a word— is entangling with her always? As the petals of the cherry blossoms fall around her, Selanthia finds herself caught in a web of mystery, romance, and perhaps, redemption. But in this enchanted new life, where nothing is as it seems, can she unravel the twist of life brought forward by THAT MAN? Or will the shadows of her past rise to claim her once more?

Rey was just an ordinary student—until he died... and woke up in a world he thought he’d left behind forever: the world of The Hero’s Rise, the cringe fantasy novel he wrote years ago and abandoned in disgust. Now, trapped inside his own half-baked story, Rey has to deal with a broken world filled with unfinished quests, overpowered villains, and plot holes big enough to fall into. To make matters worse, the system that reincarnated him is pushy, relentless—and a little too obsessed with forcing him to "save the world." Rey also discovered something terrifying: The book he had written... was a living world of its own— And it felt real. Far too real...

I am Leo Chen, and I have walked the thin line between life and death in some of the world’s harshest environments. I once emerged from a dense, uncharted forest after days of foraging on wild roots and deciphering animal trails. I have braved the scorching dunes of a remote desert, where each sun-baked grain of sand threatened to sap my strength. I have stood atop ragged ice floes, where the wind howled like a vengeful spirit and every breath burned my lungs. I have even been cast away on an isolated island, where the sea tested my patience and my ingenuity. Through each trial, I learned that survival is not merely about enduring—it is about mastering the rules of the game itself.

Synopsis – Ashes in the Riverwind Genre: Slow Fantasy / Character-Driven Mystery / Soft Magic In the mist-laden valley of Thornepass, life drips by like water through moss: slow, steady, and tangled in silence. The village of Edenrock is old—not grand, not poor, just old. Its people live close to the soil and closer still to each other’s secrets. They hold festivals for the changing fruit. They write poems in the bark of birch trees. And though the world outside has shifted—grown louder, hungrier, more mechanical—Edenrock remains untouched, or so its residents would like to believe. Then comes Nerin, a pale stranger with scholar’s hands and a satchel of half-scorched journals. He claims to be a traveling apprentice-scribe, assigned to copy the local stories and dialects. But his silences stretch a little too long, his gaze lingers a little too much on the half-buried stone obelisks, and his dreams seem too vivid for a man who sleeps so little. Still, no one pays him much mind. The Festival of Stonefruit is approaching, and there are tents to mend, bread to bake, and gossip to spread. The real story does not begin with Nerin. It begins with a toothless dog that keeps digging in the orchard. It begins with a little girl who draws dreams she should not remember. It begins with water that tastes faintly of ash, and a wind that carries words no one speaks anymore. Ashes in the Riverwind is not about saving the world. It is about noticing the slow rot in the walls before they fall. It is about people whose lives are so quiet, they barely hear themselves unraveling. Magic, if it exists, does not announce itself. It hums beneath the floorboards. Some things in Edenrock were never buried deep enough.

The scent of vanilla and freshly baked bread curled through the morning air, soft and inviting—a stark contrast to the man standing outside the tiny pastry shop. Matteo De Luca didn’t belong in a place like this. Dressed in black, with a presence that swallowed the light around him, he was a jagged piece of the underworld pressed against the softness of something pure. He hadn’t meant to stop. Hadn’t meant to be drawn in. But there he was, watching the man behind the counter—flour dusting his fingers, lips pursed in concentration as he decorated a delicate éclair. A man who had no idea that with one glance, he had become an obsession. Luca should walk away. He should forget the warmth, the scent, the man who smelled like sugar and safety. But he wouldn’t. Because when a man like him wanted something, he took it. And right now? He wanted him. ---

Emily's life in the small town of Willow Creek was idyllic. She lived with her parents, Mark and Sarah, and her younger brother, Jack, in a cozy house on Elm Street. The sun-kissed streets were lined with oak trees, and the smell of freshly baked cookies wafted from her mother's kitchen. Emily's bright smile and infectious laugh made her a beloved figure in the community. But beneath the surface, Emily's world was about to shatter. She had always trusted her family implicitly, but a chance discovery would change everything.

For centuries, humanity has dismissed gods as myths—stories created to explain the unexplainable. But here’s the kicker: the gods are real. Not only do they exist, but they also have their own version of the United Nations, called the United Pantheon of Gods (U.P.O.C.), where deities from all mythologies gather to argue, negotiate, and occasionally threaten each other with divine smitings. Enter Michael—just an ordinary guy… or so he thought. Turns out, he’s actually a newborn god, unknowingly raised by mortals. Now, he's been thrown headfirst into the U.P.O.C. as their newest member. Even worse? The gods have decided that, as someone with a foot in both worlds, he’s the perfect candidate to act as their representative to the human government—because, yes, world leaders are very aware of the divine. Now, Michael must juggle divine egos, supernatural politics, ancient grudges, and ridiculous celestial bureaucracy, all while figuring out his own powers. Oh, and let’s not forget the looming threats of rogue gods, celestial wars, and modern-day mortals who may not be as powerless as they seem. Godhood was supposed to be cool. No one told him it came with paperwork.

Despite her knowledge, she wanted to live a simple life in a cafe without attracting much attention. She knew the sequence of events but didn’t want to change anything knowing at the very end, peace and prosperity are achieved. One day, to Alyce’s surprise, a pregnant woman walked into her cafe. To her horror, it was the villainess! Despite knowing the terrible things that villainess does in the future, they become friends.

On the exact day, the villainess was supposedly supposed to die, she appears in front of Alyce’s cafe in labor. With help, Alyce manages to save the children through the dangerous pregnancy leading to the villainess’s death. Ever since that day, Alyce kept the children away from the nobles and the royal family. Of course, the prolonged avoidance didn’t last too long. Many years later, Alyce was threatened into going to a party with nobles hosted by the royal family with the children. Scared, she goes and has her first interaction with the female protagonist but, something seemed strange, and her children could sense it too. The female protagonist wasn’t hostile at all but oddly… friendly. She would do many things that’d bring up memories. Almost like she was trying to replace them. Why?

Once a fearsome Dark Lord who ruled with an iron fist and an unholy collection of enchanted weapons, Vexar has traded in his dark mantle for an apron, a rolling pin, and an overwhelming obsession with sourdough.

Between accidentally scaring the townsfolk with his intimidating presence, accidentally using dark magic to heat the oven (again), and accidentally becoming embroiled in petty bakery rivalries and town politics, Vexar finds that running a peaceful little shop isn't as easy as tossing dough into a well-baked future. With a steady stream of quirky customers—including an old nemesis who insists on ordering pastries, a particularly sassy potion delivery courier, and the town's mysterious hero who keeps reappearing for scones—Vexar must learn to navigate the simple life while grappling with the occasional resurrection of ancient foes... all while ensuring the croissants come out golden and the jams are just right. Can a Dark Lord truly leave his past behind? Or is he destined to rise again—this time with a tray of muffins?

Ethan, a terminally ill young man with nothing to lose, retreats to the countryside to live out his final days in peace. But peace isn’t what he finds. Armed with advanced alien biotechnology and a mysterious Hive Mind AI, Ethan becomes the secret god of a miniature “sandbox world,” where time moves faster and evolution is in his hands. What begins as a quiet experiment in gene splicing and ecosystem crafting quickly spirals into a mad, hilarious, and often epic clash between Ethan and a group of unsuspecting players who enter his sandbox through what they think is just a hardcore survival game. Unbeknownst to them, Ethan watches their every move—from evolving chicken-like toxins to crafting sentient furniture—and occasionally smites them with a slap… or roasts them alive for dinner. From engineering magical civilizations and mythical beasts, to trolling overeager players with psychological warfare, Ethan’s sandbox becomes a chaotic crucible of creativity, tragedy, and divine comedy. But behind the satire and cosmic pranks lies a bigger question: can a dying man, with nothing but time and infinite control, build a world where immortality isn’t just a dream?

In the ancient times of scholars, farmers, commerce and industry, only those who were strong enough would not be bullied. Shen Chenyu resolutely chose the road of imperial examination.

Welcome to Rosehill, a small town nestled in rolling hills and bathed in the scent of wildflowers, fresh bread, and something far more indulgent. On the surface, it’s a sleepy, postcard-perfect place. But those who stay long enough soon learn that Rosehill has a secret—and it’s not on any tourist map. When heartbroken food writer Elena Moreno stumbles into Rosehill looking for a quiet escape, she discovers more than she ever imagined: a seductive culinary underworld where passion is plated with every dish, and desire is the main ingredient. At the center of it all is Marco Bellamy, the enigmatic chef behind Bellamy’s Table, an invitation-only supper club where guests taste pleasures far beyond food. As Elena dives deeper into Rosehill’s steamy social circles—where baking classes become intimate affairs and herb gardens hold aphrodisiac secrets—she’s drawn into a web of deliciously tangled relationships. From the sensual energy between a local couple experimenting with food and fantasy, to a quiet gardener whose touch can melt even the coldest of hearts, Rosehill is a town where love is shared, boundaries are tested, and pleasure is always on the menu. But when old emotions resurface and hidden connections come to light, Elena must decide: is this her escape, or the beginning of something she never knew she needed?

Eirian Vale was the legend no one knew. An anonymous prodigy in the world of competitive FPS games, she dominated the leaderboards and just walked away with the grand prize of the Terminal Apex Championship—ten million dollars now sitting pretty in her bank account. That is, until she tripped on a bag of frozen dumplings, hit her head on a table, and died. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself in a sleek, neon-lit forest where glowing birds perch on magical power lines, and demons wear sunglasses. A voice—casual and awkward—descends from the sky: "Uh… sorry, we killed the wrong person." As compensation, the mysterious voice uploads her tournament stats directly into her body. Reflexes, aim, reaction time? All maxed out. Her gun? A laughable rusted relic that jams every third shot. With no quest, no guide, and only her half-baked sarcasm to carry her, Eirian must survive this monster-ridden modern fantasy world where the rules of reality bend like rubber.

A late-night bakery. A moody baker. And cookies that taste like feelings. Tucked into a quiet corner of old Tokyo, there’s a bakery that only comes alive after dark. Its name is Moonlight Crumbs, and every night at exactly 9:00 PM, a warm, golden scent curls through the air, pulling in lost souls and night wanderers. At the heart of it all is Elias Greywood, a quiet man who bakes to forget. Each cookie he makes unknowingly carries a trace of his emotions — his joy, his sorrow, his longing for a home that no longer feels like home. Customers swear his cookies taste like memories they forgot they had. Elias just thinks he’s bad at following recipes. What Elias doesn’t know is that his family’s old house — the machiya he still calls home — has a secret. Something ancient sleeps beneath its floors, something that remembers his parents, remembers every tear and every laugh poured into their baking.
