Ghibli Fireflies

A boy, transmigrates & is reborn into a turbulent world, gaining the inheritance of a Mystical Cultivation Senior. He finds himself as the son of a once-noble father, cast out from his clan and stripped of lineage in the Republic of Kratos. Given enough time he would surely follow the footsteps of the Inheritor & he could rise above the ranks, seize control of his illusory Immortal fate, and carve his name into history. But Destiny has other plans for him. He lacks time for growth. This world, an era of cultivating magic and ancient mysteries, is healing from the scars of the Hundred-Year Great World War. Yet beneath the calm & peace-loving surface, storms brew. Spirit energies surge, heralding the dawn of a New Era. Hidden orthodoxies long shrouded in secrecy bare their fangs, secular powerhouses grasp desperately at the fleeting hope of Sole unification of Nashirah, and the devils of the Sith Paths weave their vast, insidious net. Even the remnants of defeated forces stir, waiting for rebellion. Meanwhile, weaker states, like the fractured kingdoms & Republics, scramble for mere survival. In this chaotic land of Nashirah, even the Immortal-level Mages find themselves racing against time. Amidst these tides of destiny, Sargon must forge his path. Who will stand by him as allies, and who will rise against him as enemies? What trials, tribulations, and opportunities will shape his journey? As the World of Rivers and Lakes of this world churn with strife, one question remains: Can Sargon, with the fleeting time he possesses, grasp the elusive path to immortality?"

The Lantern of Lost Wishes Deep in the heart of Luminwood Forest, where the air hums with secrets and fireflies weave trails of forgotten dreams, there is a legend of an ancient lantern that can grant lost wishes. No one knows who made it or why, but those who go looking for it rarely find their way back. For Elyra, the lantern is more than a story. It’s a chance. Haunted by a past she can’t change and a future slipping through her fingers, Elyra sets out to find the lantern, clutching nothing but a faded map and a fragile hope. But the forest is alive. It shifts and listens. Creatures of shadow, known as the Wraithbound, follow her every move, feeding on the desperate wishes of others. Elyra’s only ally is a mysterious stranger with golden eyes and a grin that hides more than it reveals. He’s cursed, dangerous, and far too familiar with the forest’s tricks—and yet, Elyra can’t shake the feeling that he’s the only one who truly understands her. With every step deeper into the woods, Elyra discovers that wishes are never free, and some are lost for a reason. The closer she gets to the lantern, the heavier the cost becomes—secrets unravel, alliances shatter, and the forest itself begins to turn on her. Elyra must decide how far she’s willing to go to reclaim what she’s lost and whether some dreams are better left untouched. Because in the Luminwood, every wish carries a price, and once the lantern’s light finds you, it’s impossible to turn back. A story of longing, sacrifice, and the magic we hold onto when all else fades, The Lantern of Lost Wishes is a journey into a world where dreams flicker like fireflies, and hope is both a blessing and a curse.

Colossals, Titans, and Demonic Beasts rule over a world where no weapon, no bullet, and no missile can pierce their nearly impenetrable hides. Ruthless, cunning, and more brutal than any human, these creatures brought humanity to the edge of extinction. When half the population fell, a harsh truth emerged: only a monster could defeat a monster: ONLY A MONSTER COULD KILL A MONSTER. Humanity became monsters. In this world, one could only become stronger by fusing, merging and splicing their cells with monsters to become Exomorphers! Ezra reincarnated into this world with a cheat system that allowed him to fuse ordinary farm animals into higher grade monsters! [You have fused 100 sheeps, 100 horses, 100 cat-fishes and 100 chicken together!] [Congratulations, you have acquired a Mythical Qilin!] … [You have fused 100 lions, 100 eagles, 50 magma salamanders together!] [Congratulations, you have acquired a Mythical Inferno Griffin!] … [You have fused 100 parrots, 100 diamonds, 100 fireflies, and 50 flamingos together!] [Congratulations, you have acquired a Mythical Crystal Phoenix!] … While others risks their lives and spend their family fortunes to tame legendary beasts, Ezra only fuses farm animals to create mythical beasts! Ezra’s Dad: “W-where are my chickens!?” Ezra: “ A flying mythical beast attacked and ate them all!” Ezra’s Dad: “A thousand of them!?” Ezra: “Uhm. It was very hungry.” (Note: This is not your regular beast taking novel. The beasts are no where near cute nor is there a special cuddly bond between Host and Symbiote!)

do you like dual cultivation novels? this is a novel that is written because I couldn't find many good dual cultivation novel that has a very good story in my taste. This novel is about a wise orphan, who doesn't have his past life memory or is not a reincarnated man with godly techniques, who struggles to get himself out of the cruel world he is born into not by luck or by a broken legacy but his brain unlike many MCs. it is a cultivation world where the characters does not act like NPC or firefly for MC growth but have their own goal and will do anything to achieve it. The MC doesn't have a harem the MC isn't overpowered let me explain: the MC goes around collecting harem and that is great but think about it. in the real world as the harem grows the intimacy fades the ladies change and evolve too and what makes you think a collection of women fighting for attention will do? there will be carnage! there is no way powerful cultivator women would stick around one another because they will have a better chance with other powerful male cultivators who give their full attention and resources. men don't truly want a harem and take care of an endless amount of women but want to go around sleeping with as many women as possible without any restrictions. we see it in animals, it is instinct. the cover page isn't mine shout out to sea art and the artist.

TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of suicide, depression, death, and rape. Do not read if you can not handle these topics. Also this book is meant to be slightly a horror novel. this book is about a sixteen year old girl named Victoria who moved into a small town for a fresh start after her mother died. Little did she know what would go down in the town. Mysterious disappearances that can't be explained. An untraceable virus? Victoria and her two other friends try to get to the bottom of it. -------------------------------------------------- epilogue:   Dad would always say that our mom used to take me to the waterfall when I was a kid.   I don't really remember this of course. I was only four when she did, but we would catch fireflies and she'd tell me I was her beautiful Angel. When my brother got old enough she would take him there since I felt I was too old to catch fireflies and play in the water. I do have memories of my mother, it's only been eight months since she's passed. I'm sixteen now and unlike most girls my age who go out and do drugs do to peer pressure with their friends, I've been home schooled for the past eleven years due to my mother thinking the bullying would lead to depression later in life. I don't have friends or anyone to talk to. My mother was my only friend and now she's gone.   It's not like I can look for any comfort nor company in my father now these days. He's been a ghost since mom passed. Meaninglessly roaming around the house bumping into things as he goes, not really paying attention to what he's doing. My brother is too young to deal with this type of loss being only six. I know that dad tries his best with us in the sense of being there, but no matter how many fake smiles he puts on I still hear him crying in his room some nights. With that being said I'm the one who does the comforting in my family and together, yet alone, we cry.   I thought it was going to be like this for the rest of our lives. I never planned to move out at eighteen because I didn't want to leave my father here alone to rot. A shell of his former self slowly decaying along with the house. With my little brother being motherless and pretty much fatherless I had to learn to be a parent and raise him the best that I can. I'm guessing my dad had different plans. He burst into my room early one morning without warning. "I need you to pack you and your brother's stuff. We're leaving to Oregon. Please pack as light as possible. You'll have time to choose what you want to keep or leave because you have two weeks." ------------------- Cover artist: Roxanne Jane Black insta: roxanne.janeblack
