“Delete my game account and have a mansion on the outskirts of the city?” Am I being treated as an abandoned dog? How laughable! Former Vice Guild Leader of a Super Guild in the game Divine World, Xu Feng, was ultimately discarded.

In a world far larger than Earth, a cataclysmic event reshapes reality when mysterious towers appear across the continents. These towers, teeming with deadly creatures from other realms, open gateways for beings to emerge—creatures that can only leave their towers for 10 minutes at a time and cannot stray more than 10 feet from them. The appearance of these towers brings both chaos and opportunity. Great treasures, skills, and hidden knowledge lie within, but they come with a price. The world's balance teeters on the edge as these creatures wreak havoc on the land. The protagonist, a dedicated engineer, has spent years preparing for his dream job, only for the emergence of the towers to shatter his carefully laid plans. The once-predictable world is now unpredictable, and the protagonist finds himself thrust into a reality that no one could have foreseen. Along with the towers, adventurers—people who have awakened new traits and abilities—begin to appear. The protagonist, driven by frustration and a thirst for control, decides to forge his own path as an adventurer. With the knowledge he has from his engineering background and the systems granted by the towers, he embarks on a journey to explore the dungeons within the towers, uncover their treasures, and perhaps discover the means to restore order to the world. But the towers are not just a physical challenge—they are tied to the very fabric of reality itself. The protagonist must navigate not only the dangers of otherworldly creatures but also the increasingly fragmented political, geographical, and social conditions that arise from the towers’ presence. Each tower is a world unto itself, with creatures, treasures, and mysteries unique to each, and as the protagonist journeys deeper into these realms, he begins to understand that the towers might hold the key to saving—or destroying—the world. With new skills, powerful allies, and the weight of a crumbling world on his shoulders, the protagonist's quest is clear: survive, adapt, and find a way to confront the strange new system that governs this twisted reality. However, as his power grows, so too does the complexity of the world around him, and the lines between friend and foe blur. The towers’ true purpose is hidden deep within their foundations, and unlocking their secrets may be the only way to reverse the cataclysm—but will the protagonist be able to master the system before it's too late? *Towers of the Awakening* is a thrilling blend of RPG mechanics, world-building, and character development, exploring the tension between order and chaos in a world on the brink of collapse.

Being the author of the breakout novel, Gates of The Primordials, Jarren Fletcher did not care about the constant critiques claiming he had a habit of treating extra characters as mere plot devices, creating and then dumping them once they’d served their purpose. To Jarren, it didn’t matter. Extras were just that—extras. All that mattered was the main character. But Jarren never expected to wake up in his own story, reincarnated as one of the meaningless, disposable extra characters, Deremiah Morcant—a coward who took his own life to escape the perilous challenges of the Gate Trials. Now, Jarren has to face those deadly challenges himself in the body of a weak, insignificant extra. He must find a way to survive in the rules of the dangerous world he had created, whilst also trying to save it. But time is running out. The next Wave is coming, and so are the paragons.

VILLAIN!? Is that what you call me? Do you know what I have been through? Damn it! My fight is against the puppeteering strings of heaven itself. FATE dealt me this hand, and I'll find peace in it. Even if I have to end the world, I'll sit a king on its ruins. I'm not a good guy. I won't even pretend that I am. But then again, who in this world can truly claim that title? At least I know my heart. What about yours?" ..... Chiron lived an unfortunately miserable life as an orphan. Just when he managed to get rich as a result of a book about a world he saw in his dreams, he was murdered. He was even unable to enjoy his vast wealth before his death. But Fate had other plans for him. He was reborn in the same book he wrote as the main character. Appearing when he was about to undergo circumcision. But that was the least of his problems. After all, according to his book, the main character was to die at the end, risking his life for the safety of the world. To sacrifice one's self for the world was not his style. But the hunt for power and immortality---Now that was his style. However can he win when his enemy is Fate itself and the Gods that command it?...Especially with the Fate Change System he can never truly trust. ...... Note: The MC has no morality. Very Sick Shit happens in this book. I mean things that will make even your parents shy away. You have been warned!!! No Romance= (The Ancestors forbid it) Simping= (The MC would prefer Death please) Familiar bonds= (Family exists only for benefits.) Stray off the part of Power= (only to go kill a nation or something and we back on track) Note: So the first hundred chapters are endearing but very necessary. MC is at his weakest point ever. But it's also what builds his indomitable character and fearless nature. please be patient with it. The wait is worth it. {I never needed to say this before, but please read at least a hundred chapters before you leave a review. Thank you}

I appreciate you reading my book "Pokémon: Last Quake". To start, I want to outline a few points and establish some rules that I will adhere to throughout the writing process: System: The main character (MC) will not be provided with any system, ensuring that all achievements are earned through effort rather than given due to external factors. Additionally, there will be no levels, signifying that growth is achieved through experience, not predetermined by numbers. Ships: The narrative will not be heavily centered on romance; however, if it does emerge, there will be just one canonical partner for the main character. Comments: Ideas and critiques are welcome as they help maintain focus. Please feel free to share them, and if they are incorporated, the contributor's name will be acknowledged at the chapter's conclusion. Lemons: There will be no on-screen lemons, I will be only providing brief descriptions before cutting to the next part of the story. Embark on a tale of transformation from weakness to strength, centered around a young man's adventure in the Pokémon universe. Thank you for being part of this journey, and I hope you enjoy the experience. By Mugen Strife

The Isekai genre often highlights the fantastical adventures of male protagonists endowed with superhuman strength and surrounded by adoring companions. However, an alternative narrative focuses on the plight of "strays"—individuals transported from Earth who struggle to survive in a hostile environment where they are regarded as mere commodities, goods, or even trash. This perspective challenges the traditional heroic framework by emphasizing themes of vulnerability, exploitation, and resilience. Unlike the empowered heroes who dominate conventional Isekai tales, these strays navigate a world that is indifferent or outright antagonistic to their existence, thereby offering a critical commentary on issues of marginalization and the human condition. This nuanced portrayal underscores the harsh realities and ethical dilemmas faced by those who find themselves displaced and devalued in an unfamiliar and often unforgiving realm.

Ina is a golden eyed Omega, which is exceptional among desert wolves, living together with her friend Noah in the pack on a desert next to a big city hidden behind huge walls.

Sorry im a bit busy, will pick up around november and December. Ye Er first saw that female zerg in an advertisement. He was cheap, and significantly damaged, with only a pair of golden eyes that remained beautiful. Later, when he saw him again, he was in the female slave exchange live broadcast, where he was trampled, his spine crushed, shamelessly humiliated, his eyes silently enduring the pain and embarrassment. Yet, he shed not even a single teardrop. Later on, Ye Er picked up that dying female zerg back home. Nursing the female zerg back to health was like repairing an old, rusty machine. He was severely mutilated, had lost his bone wings, was blinded in one eye, and had his legs broken, unable to walk. Broken and tattered, completely lacking in value, silent yet sharp. Ye Er cared for him like a stray dog he had picked up, changing bandages, feeding, caressing his head to appease, turning on the lights at night to drive away spasms and nightmares… striving to be a qualified keeper. However, after continuous nursing, the female zerg who unknowingly grew powerful and returned to the peak of power, surrounded him with his newly grown bone wings, gently and cautiously with matchless devotion. Five years after the war ended, the empire and the military welcomed back their "sacrificed" general, leading to a strong reshuffle, resulting in the dismissal of numerous noble military officers. On the surface, the scene was of foul wind and blood rain, with fear and trepidation. While the media was subtly pointing fingers at the arrogant and cold-blooded tyrant, the tyrant was wearing a soft pink warm apron, skillfully baking matcha cookies with a gentle expression as he called Ye Er to wash his hands before eating. No one could have imagined that during the day, the general, who was violent and unparalleled, skillfully tearing mechas apart on the military training ground— Would obediently open up his heart completely with his own hands, trembling all over, his eyes red and moist from being bullied, hoarsely voicing his forbearing affection.

In a peculiar twist of fate, Lee Taeok, found himself in an extraordinary predicament.

At the beginning was an entity. Who strayed alone in the reality of nothingness. One day, he found out he had powers. Creation and Destruction. He used it to make the world, the universe and the void. And even created 3 beings to rule over it, but then he suddenly felt fatigue. It was the first time he had felt it, not knowing what to do he gave in to his instincts. Right before he fell into slumber, he saw twinkling of many lights in the universe he had made.

NOTE - 12.10.2024 ---------------------------------------------------------------- After taking some time away to reflect, I’ve reread the chapters I’ve published so far. While they’re not necessarily bad, I’ve realized that I’ve strayed from my original vision and intent for the story. Essentially, I’ve failed to get to the heart of what I truly want to write, using the prologue as a convenient excuse to overlook this issue. As a result, I’ve decided to rewrite the story once more. This will be my final attempt before moving on to another original novel I’m working on if this rewrite doesn’t meet my expectations. This time, I can’t promise that I won’t make significant changes to the story. And to be honest, I’m not sure if anyone will even see or read this message. Regardless, my plan is to publish the new prologue all at once (if I decide to keep one), followed by regular updates of the chapters in the first arc. Additionally, I’ve decided to adjust the chapter lengths. Moving forward, chapters will range from 1500 to 3000 words, rather than exceeding 4000 words. This change should make the story more digestible and easier to manage overall and write. I’m not certain when I’ll finish, but I wanted to provide an update.

I stopped releasing here on webnovel, but it's still going on royal road if you want a better reading experience. I also have pictures there, which I couldn't figure out how to include here.

The opening of the novel describes how a young boy's daily life is disturbed by events of the present, which are somehow inextricably linked to those of the past. A protagonist whose first letter is T. (The Narrator) finds himself unprepared when his childhood friend (Besian) is faced with a bitter reality after returning from exile, and as a result ends up as a defendant before the court, for a rather serious crime within the family for a moment, where he lost control. At the same time that he learns about this event, he meets by chance on the street an old acquaintance (Behar) that he had not seen since childhood, and learns the reasons for his disappearance without name and notice years ago. In a conversation with him, he begins to understand how the destinies of his friend and this person from the past have in common and match, and why the events took place in two completely different eras. In an effort to inform another close friend (Ilirin) about these events, he was surprised by the appearance of a girl's figure in the latter's house, when he had gone there to inform him, but he himself was not there. found. While the narrative continues in the background the whole time the events are unfolding there is a friend of his, with whom he shares the house, and a stray that they had accommodated in it to keep him from certain death on the street. The events are interwoven in their variety even more, when a lady (Mrs. Bekteshi) comes to the city, together with a character from across the sea to fulfill her chastity in creating a political movement, which would shake the foundations of the system political-social. This supporting cast of characters is excellent, each with their own distinct character and plenty of color and texture. Despite the dramatic and heavy events that accompany the entire narrative, it is a pleasure to accompany the Narrator on his physical and emotional journey, thanks to the subtle humor and rather impressive descriptions that accompany this work. The unexpected ending is a fitting resolution to a story full of epic love feelings, and unforgettable between friends and couples.
