Cold War Forsaken Guide

I was at the top once. A Beast Handler Commander, leading "Sunlight", one of the most prestigious guilds in the beast-taming world. I had everything: power, respect, and a team that trusted me. But all it took was one decision. My refusal to merge with the corporate overlords of "Worldsinger". To bring everything crashing down. Stripped of my title, exiled from the guild I built with my own hands, and left to watch as the world moved on without me. But I’m not one to give up. Starting from scratch isn’t defeat. It’s a chance to rise again. Regressed, I came back, when "Heaven's Reach" launched. I saw it as a battlefield. A proving ground. My shot at redemption. I’ll rebuild everything they took from me, on my terms. This time, I’m not working under anyone's thumb. With my closest friend Kael by my side, we’re carving a new path as beast tamers, training creatures others dismiss, exploiting weaknesses others miss. They think I’m done, but I’ve only just begun. "Heaven's Reach" isn’t just a game to me. It’s my second chance. And trust me, I’ll make damn sure this world remembers the name Auron.

Updates @ 20:00 (+8 GMT) Healing is not just healing, it is also politics. Edwin had heard it all, had repeated it time and time again. He did not want to accept those words. They were vile, they were poisonous. A necromancer such as himself had no right to become a healer, he still did his best. An altruist like him had no place in the service of the king as Boliarin. He still refused to give up the title, for fear that someone else would take it, and plunge Duria into chaos. All his life, he had played by the rules. Even when he suffered losses, even when he believed he could not look himself in the mirror. Everyone has a breaking point. Edwin did not lie to himself. He was calm, but not sane. The camel's back had long since been broken. And yet, when his ray of moonlight, the vampire Hadrian, offered to travel with him, Edwin agreed. He lets himself pretend he was good, hoping he might lie to himself one of those days. Would Harry be enough to stop him from darkening the world? Or would he end up just another villain, who had once been bright-eyed and hopeful? The story is complete, and has 109 chapters in total, around 1k each.

In a world ruled by a powerful Overlord who has defeated gods, monarchs, and even immortals, nothing remains to challenge THEM. Bored with THEIR perfect reign, THEY seeks excitement through playful destruction. But now, even that has lost its thrill. As the twelve monarchs from different realms gather at THEIR command, the Overlord makes an unexpected announcement—THEY will step down, build the greatest academy ever known, and reincarnate.

When extreme cold sweeps across the earth, everything mutates accordingly. Lin Shi unexpectedly gained the opportunity for rebirth and returned to the three months before the end of the world. This time, he returned with the mysterious treasure trove inherited by his family. It is not just an ordinary storage space, but can be continuously upgraded as the user grows. What's even more shocking is that it also has the ability to replicate any item! Using this ability, Lin Shi began to hoard a large amount of materials needed for survival, carefully building an almost invincible shelter to ensure survival in the upcoming disaster. However, when the extreme cold truly arrived, not only did the natural environment undergo drastic changes, but human society also underwent earth shattering changes - all surviving humans suddenly gained a way to unlock their own genetic locks, thus evolving into evolutionists with special abilities; At the same time, those surviving animals also underwent mutations and became more powerful and dangerous source animals. Faced with such a harsh living environment, Lin Shi knew deeply that only strength could ensure the safety of himself and his companions. Anyone who dares to invade me, no matter how powerful, will face a merciless blow, "Lin Shi said firmly in his heart, ready to face this unprecedented challenge.

His voice was low, almost a growl, but there was a hint of something else beneath — something that made her heart skip a beat. She swallowed hard, her throat dry. The question hung in the air between them, heavy and tangible. "I… I don't know," She finally answered, her voice barely above a whisper. His lips curled into a smirk, a slow, dangerous smile that sent shivers down her spine. "Liar" he murmured, his voice a deep rumble that vibrated through her. "You want this. You want me." She opened her mouth to protest, to deny it, but he didn't give her a chance. His hand shot out, gripping her chin roughly, forcing her to look up at him. "Do you want me to prove it?" He asked, his voice dripping with challenge. ~+~ Tags: #Revenge #Strongfemalelead, #norape, #reincarnation, #Fakeidentity, #EdwardianEra, #VampireRomance #Smut #Supernaturalpowers #magic #darkfantasy #long-distance pining (The main characters are aware of each other's feelings but can't be physically be together yet.

I closed my eyes with a sigh and let the needle slip through limp fingers. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. They could always find someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light. Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

"May the dice roll in your favor." **Author's Notes:** - I as the author have employed multiple pen names throughout my journey, including Chaos_Guide, TS Greed, and Slumbering Dragon. - This is a fantasy tale with a morally complex protagonist who does not shy away from embracing the darker aspects of his character. - The story commences in a world devoid of fantasy elements, gradually ascending through the ranks of worlds as the expansive universe unravels. - The narrative truly takes off with the onset of Volume 2, where the first fantasy world unfolds in all its grandeur.

In the twenty-third century, the footsteps of mankind have already set foot in every corner of the solar system. When I lightly touch the intelligent terminal in my hand, the screen immediately shows a spectacular picture: countless space ships are shuttling between the stars, and human settlements have been established even on the distant planet Pluto. Outsiders claim that the environmental crisis on Earth has been completely solved, the energy problem is no longer a nuisance, the power of science and technology has made natural disasters a thing of the past, and even diseases have become a thing of the past. However, when the screen went out, the coldness of reality hit me instantly. I found myself lying in a small room, surrounded by a depressing atmosphere. The world outside may be glittering, but I was competing with more than 2,000 people for a minuscule job. My neighbor, an old man in his fifties, had waited since his youth for the opportunity to become a local doctor, and now, despite having waited for thirty years, he still had to face a competitive line of hundreds of people. In these seemingly good times, half of the population is marginalized, unable to escape unemployment for the rest of their lives, barely surviving on the minimum subsistence provided by the government. These people, in the face of the grand human dream, seem to have become irrelevant, and I have become one of them. As someone who has traveled from the past, I have witnessed all these changes. Was what I had gained the marvelous space stations, the ships traveling between the stars, and the colonies that had been established in outer space, or was it the perfect life that was flaunted in the media by the elite who had been genetically modified since birth? However, when a sudden threat of extraterrestrial life came upon us, I was plunged into deep thought. In front of the vastness and mystery of this universe, the struggles and efforts of human beings seem so small. In the depths of such a universe, faced with the fear of the unknown, which way of life is more frightening? Is it to be forgotten by society and spend one's life in poverty, or to face the endless darkness and death of the universe on the journey of exploring the unknown? The answer to this question can perhaps only be found when truly standing at the crossroads of destiny.

It happened slowly. Then all of us lost. For a moment after the loss, we were reunited, and brought victory at a price. And thus, I found myself with a second chance.

So, get ready for Lucas's wild ride as he figures out how to survive in a place that's basically a nightmare. While others are doing ninja moves or casting spells, Lucas is just trying not to get eaten. Little does he know, his so-called bad luck might just be the thing that saves his sorry butt.

Humiliated and in heat, Idalia was forced to attend the Moonlight Masquerade in hopes of finding a mate to satisfy her body's needs. Vulnerable to her desires, she ran into the woods to escape a potential scandal. But when a masked man catches her, his touch tosses all reasoning aside. What should have been a simple humiliating event for the princess turns into a night of passion. There was one problem though: she couldn't remember who she mated with! The slave who carried her to bed. The knight who knelt before her and offered his canines for touching her. The sworn enemy Alpha Prince, who confessed his love for her. Follow Idalia as she navigates between three Weres. One is a pretty guy eager to please her to escape his fate, another trying to reclaim his honour while unable to control his desires, and the last is a villain using her for his goals, but a flame festers between them at every interaction. A slave, a knight and a villain prince, who will she choose? [ Mature Content ] "You smell like the sun." His strides are long and confident, heading in my direction like he knows exactly what he wants. He stops before me, and my head tips back. "How is that possible?" His voice drops to a rumbling whisper. Now that he was close to me, the burning ache deep within started to throb and palpitate. His body tensed, and then he was on me, nose against my neck, inhaling deeply, one hand on the side of my hair, pinning me in place with his hips. My head tilts back, unable to stop myself from giving into his touch, exposing my neck more to him, his chest rumbling as he licks the side of my skin, kissing and nipping, placing his scent over me. I am completely and utterly at his mercy. I vaguely hear material ripping, and then his warm hand cups me. "You're not finished yet," his voice is thick and deep, and it shoots straight to my tingling, pulsing core. His touch is almost possessive, and I nearly beg him to do whatever he wants with me. "Should I make it better?" His whisper is a caress against my ear before he nips the lobe, a bite promising that this would not be tender. - Daily chapter uploads -

Leon had always been an unlikely romantic. Beneath his imposing frame, tattooed arms, and reputation as a street fighter, he hid a secret: a love for romance novels. In a room cluttered with stuffed toys, bookshelves stacked with novels adorned with delicate covers, and a cozy pink pajama set with pandas, Leon was lost in another world. His rough exterior belied a softer side that very few people had ever glimpsed. For Leon, life was full of contradictions. Despite his soft-hearted nature, he had been caught up in the gritty life of a gangster since he was a teenager. It wasn’t something he had sought out, but trouble always seemed to find him. With a face that looked like it was sculpted for brawls, people tended to assume he was a delinquent. Rejected by peers who feared his intimidating looks, and drawn into a gang when no one else would accept him, Leon had played the role assigned to him, even if it wasn't the life he truly desired. Then, one night, during a gang war that should have been like any other—full of swinging fists, snarling threats, and rules about keeping it to fists and blades—a gunshot echoed. Leon felt a searing pain in his head. The world tilted, then everything went black.

"The veil of sanity is a lie we tell ourselves when we gaze at the night sky, hoping, in a stifled corner of our mind, that the stars aren't gazing back." — A nameless, insignificant, yet ambitious young man once attempted to rescue his family from poverty. But as he found hope, he also stumbled upon despair. After losing everything to the darkness of death, including himself, he woke up in another world, stuck in the body of an eleven-year-old boy with a peculiar appearance. He soon discovered that he was a Celestial Offering—a holy sacrifice, carefully groomed by the Temple of Stars to be given to the Gods Beyond. His fate had already been sealed, for his blood would spill under the seven-pointed star and consecrate the birth of a new era for his nation. Armed with nothing but his wit and the trail of good fortune, he would attempt to challenge this destiny, braving the countless hurdles that lay in waiting and the unfathomable horrors they harbored. In a realm of magecraft, occult rituals, madness, and prowling Eidolons, he could only count on himself to survive, as the threat of insanity loomed over everyone equally, and nothing could slow its ineluctable embrace. — Discord: Naphulae#1813

The world, born billions of years ago, has been shaped and transformed by humanity's relentless drive for evolution and innovation. Over the ages, countless myths and legends emerged, igniting belief so powerful it birthed a force akin to creation itself: faith energy. This energy, fueled by humanity's collective consciousness, began to reshape reality in subtle but profound ways. Guided by a mysterious being, a formless guardian charged with maintaining balance, a plan was set into motion. Using the collected faith energy, the guardian crafted a new world — a perfect mirror of Earth — and duplicated a fragment of every human soul to inhabit it. But even the formless one, with all its knowledge, could miscalculate. In a twist of fate, actual souls, not wisps, were reborn in this parallel realm, leaving their original bodies lifeless. One such soul belonged to Ariase Ruiz. On an ordinary evening, as he returned home, a wave of blinding light washed over him. Time stopped for everyone else, yet Ariase alone felt his soul shift, untethered. When he awoke, he found himself in a world eerily familiar yet unmistakably altered, his body regressed to that of his twelve-year-old self. But as Ariase steps back into the halls of his former school, he realizes that everything is different — his world has changed, in ways he cannot yet fathom. Now, Ariase must navigate this rewritten reality, unravel its mysteries, and come to terms with his place in a world that is both his and not his at all.

Synopsis: 20 years ago, the earth as we know it has changed. It was integrated into a bigger earth or you call it as real earth. The earth as we know it is nothing more than a bunch of islands in a large ocean below a humongous continent. The humongous continent is full of technology and magic cultivators. The nearby third rate faction was enough to win against the united force of earth. Even the nuclear warheads are useless in front of strong magic and technology. Later it was found out that the previous earth is just a time capsule sanctuary to preserve the bloodlines that are about to go extinct. The world changed and the era of magic cultivation started. …………… A soul of a social scum that is shameless to the core has transmigrated from another earth that is completely ordinary in the multiverse. He was born in this new earth after 20 years of change towards the magic cultivation and higher technology. “Oh this world seems to be different. There is magic and super technology. Then where is my cheat as a transmigrator.” “Tring Congratulations host for obtaining the shameless scum villain system.” “Fuck I am not a villain. How can a righteous, benevolent, handsome and considerate man like me become a villain? In the previous life I have helped my land lord take care of his wife, sister and daughter, I took care of my good brother’s wife when he went out on a business trip, I have even helped my boss with the problem of not having children.
