Lone Friends On The Wild Side

Kuma, a 29-year-old homebound programmer and self-proclaimed Otaku, lives a predictable life in the 21st century—until he wakes up in a world that defies logic. One moment, he’s binge-watching his favorite show with a bucket of chicken; the next, he’s stranded in a mysterious cave, clad in animal fur, and staring at a younger version of himself in a reflective stream. This isn’t just any wilderness—it’s a surreal, game-like realm where survival is the only rule. A cryptic menu floats before him, listing missions: Find Water. Build Shelter. Hunt an Animal. Survive. But this is no ordinary game. The stakes are life and death, and the rules are unclear. As Kuma ventures into the unknown, he encounters a world both breathtaking and terrifying. A towering, silver-marked mountain lion guards its territory with primal ferocity. Strange, rabbit-like creatures with glowing eyes dart through the shadows. And the forest itself seems alive, whispering secrets he can’t quite grasp. Armed only with his wits and a rudimentary “Analyze” skill, Kuma must adapt quickly. He forages for berries, crafts makeshift weapons, and sets traps, all while battling hunger, exhaustion, and the ever-present threat of predators. But as he delves deeper, he begins to suspect this isn’t just a game—or even a dream. The world feels too real, too deliberate. What is this place? Who brought him here? And why does it feel like the world is testing him? Lone Survival is a gripping tale of resilience, mystery, and survival. With every step, Kuma uncovers more questions than answers, and the line between reality and illusion blurs. Will he unravel the secrets of this strange world, or will he become just another casualty in its unforgiving landscape? Dive into a story where every decision matters, every encounter could be deadly, and the truth is as elusive as the next sunrise. Welcome to Kuma’s nightmare. Welcome to Lone Survival.

Suffering is the instrument of existence, and sin is the melody of life. Now, negative karma is spreading throughout the Omniverse. To bring karma into balance in the cosmos, divine judgment must be bestowed upon every civilization within the Divine Omnistream. On the planet Tellus, divine judgment was rendered in SE 20 following a series of devastating attacks by a mysterious terrorist organization that spread chaos across the planet. They orchestrated a survival game, coercing survivors into participating in senseless killings that fueled negative karma. Einsamer Stern, an orphan stuck in the whirlwind of unrelenting survival against both cosmic dangers and mortal adversaries, emerged victorious from the survival game. However, he soon realized that this was merely the start of his journey toward unraveling the truth about himself and his reality. Initially driven by the simple desire to survive, Einsamer Stern's purpose evolved into a loftier ideal: "To cleanse humanity of sin and suffering and attain the ultimate reality." --------------------------------------------------- Daily Update: 4-7 chapters a week. Chapter length: 1500-3000 words Romance is not the primary focus, but explicit sexual scenes involving other characters that serve the plot can be expected. This story progresses at an intentionally slow pace, as I meticulously detail every fight scene and interaction to immerse the reader deeper into the world. There is no harem! @ALL RIGHT RESERVED @VISAL_WORD_SMITH

I am DARKNESS and the one who bears witness of me is LIGHT. I'm drawn to the one who bears witness of me because he sees me for who I am. I can only truly see myself when I am in his presence.

'Am I hallucinating? Am I dying?' Marx thought. Perhaps he was seeing visions because he was feverish, and his head ached from the contusions he suffered during the crash. He blinked, but the vision was still there. He saw a beautiful woman fully naked on the edge of the other side of the spring. Her slightly wavy hair with the color of copper cascaded freely down her slim waist. She raised her arms and dived cleanly into the water. Marx waited, but after some time, she did not emerge. Marx chuckled. How could a woman be in a jungle in the middle of nowhere?" He heard a growl from behind him, and before he could react, a big tiger pounced on him. The last thing he remembered was seeing four canines closing in and hearing a loud female voice shouting, "Khalil, stop!" … Discover how Amaya, who grew up in the wild, coped with the pressure and challenges of returning to the civilized world. Accompany her on her journey to find love, acceptance, and recognition in the treacherous human world of betrayal and greed. *** The book cover is not mine. It is a photo of one of the most beautiful actresses in my country. *** Jan 2025. I finally had the chance to upload the characters' avatars. I hope you will love Amaya, Marx, and Ibrahim just as I loved bringing them to life.

IMPORTANT This is only a sample. i have signed a contract with webnovel and the story will be up after editing in a short while here under the same title. Here is the link to the full book. https://www.webnovel.com/book/little-girl's-wild-side_21129307106524005### Gautham bend down to bury his head on Sindhu's shoulders and said, " Will you say 'Yes' already!" What surprised Sindhu was the tinch of desperation in his voice. How did Gautham end up feeling so much for her in a matter of a month??? Even Gautham did not know how desperate he was to make her his. Just now when he saw Sindhu make such adorable face, he felt something break inside him at the thought that she will be showing such faces to someone else if she ended up marrying someone else. "Its driving me crazy you know. The things that you are making me feel.", Gautham said with a slightly annoyed voice. Sindhu did not say anything. She just tightened her hold around him and stayed in his embrace. After a while, Gautham finally let her go. He took one last look at her face, quickly said his bye and left. He feared if he stayed any longer, he would start begging her. ........................................ This is my first work. So i hope people can give it a shot. But this one is going to be very different from the stories you would have seen in here. They are literally worlds apart. There is no backstabbing ex or a greedy relative or a dark haunting past. This is a pleasant light love story of two people facing arranged marriage. A slightly messed up wild woman and a very normal clumsy man. the story should have about 60 chapters and the whole story for most parts is complete. So it wont get dropped in the middle. Hope you like it.

"I only want one thing: immortality. It's not just a desire—it's a dream, the singular purpose that drives me. I’ve heard the laughter of children, their joy so pure, and witnessed the sorrow etched in the tears of the old, heavy with a lifetime of regret. I’ve felt the biting chill of snow that stings the skin and the soothing warmth of fire that brings fleeting comfort. Yet, deep down, I know—these sensations, these fleeting moments of life, are chained to a body destined to decay, to crumble into dust. Every step forward is a step further from the world I once knew. The laughter fades, the tears are left behind, and all that remains is a vast, consuming loneliness. And yet, I walk. Because beyond that loneliness lies something greater: freedom. A soul unshackled from the chains of mortality, unburdened by the weight of human sorrow. A spirit untethered, soaring above the heavens, able to glimpse the eternal truths hidden in the infinite expanse of the cosmos. This is my Dao—not for power, not for fame, but for understanding. If pursuing it means becoming a madman, so be it. If the world deems me a heretic, I will bear that name. For what is sanity, what is acceptance, compared to the chance to touch eternity?" ............... 12 Chapter/Week Continuing this novel after taking permission from the author of The Lonely Wanderer who posted original in Royal Road.

Yet, the true story lies within an ordinary human—a seemingly mundane person who unknowingly bears the soul of the last dragon. This dragon once stood at the pinnacle of its kind, but on the fateful day of ascension millennia ago, it was left behind due to repeated failures. Its physical form was destroyed, and its soul was forced to inhabit a mortal body. Over countless years, it witnessed the rise and fall of human civilization, enduring endless cycles of reincarnation. With each life, it sought to reclaim its true form and break the chains of fate, but destiny’s grip only grew stronger. Now, with little time left, both the dragon’s life and the world’s future hang in the balance.

The answer may lie within its forgotten memories and the significance of the mortal it never expected. This is a journey of loneliness that spans millennia, the final elegy of the last dragon.
