Zoro Learns To Cut Steel

Is Magic really just a wish machine? No! In a universe where Magic truly exists, the ultimate nature of Magic must be as simple and aesthetically pleasing as the laws of physics. This is the story of a mass-produced magical war tool who learned the ultimate nature of Magic. But what of it? Just as birds can fly without understanding aerodynamics, magicians can use Magic without grasping its ultimate nature. Learning the ultimate nature of Magic doesn't mean the tool can instantly transform into a great magician. But yearning for knowledge is a human instinct, and curiosity is the primary driving force of human civilization. Even for Magic, which should seemingly defy explanation, humans hope to understand its inherent operational laws. The pursuit of Magic's ultimate nature requires no reason! The story in this book takes place in an era where steel and gunpowder dance together. Here, firearms are on the rise; armor remains the main character; military theory is changing rapidly, with endless innovations in systems and techniques. And this world has something more than ours: Magic. The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

An average guy somehow finds himself in the DC Universe. By some sort of miracle, he didn't go mad and ended up planning an escape. He nearly succeeded. Perhaps he succeeded a little too much. The DC universe lost a potential hero but that doesn't mean he can't be one in another place. The only problem is that the line between friend and foe is truly blurred here.

#Villainess #Showbiz #Unrequited_Love #System Maevie Oz has a long one-sided crush of ten plus years on the Super Idol, Jiang Yuan, who in return of her affection always showed her his indifference. She even joined the survival show, Tomorrow’s Idol, just be in the same frame as him. One night she came to know that she was never a part of what she thought was her family. She was an outsider who took advantage of the little kindness shown to her. Then she got into a road accident. Maevie was notified of being bounded by a system which strived to correct the paths of villains and villainess and lead a happy, successful, and evil free life. The system told her that she was a villainess character in a world where Sienne was the protagonist. Her karmic value was negative and would invite only hatred from others. To redeem herself, she was sent to ten different worlds as training and got a skill as a reward for each world she successfully completed. After what seemed like centuries, she was finally back to her own world. She woke up in a hospital. Her centuries of journey were merely 10 hours in her real world. As taught to her, in the future, she would not compete with Sienne for the affections she got. She would not go after Luther like a lost puppy and be a hinder to him. This time she would focus on herself. Be a better Maevie. . . . Luther has a tail he could never get rid of since the first time they met when he was 17. Now he was 28 and she still followed him to the survival show despite her lack of talent and interest of being an idol. But ever since she was caught in the multiple scandal, she was a changed person. She no longer appeared in every place he went. He heard she stopped bulling her little sister. She was no longer a snarly impolite girl who only knew how to whine and complain. Luther thought that it would not last long. But she remained consistent to this character. He deliberately appears in front of her to see her reaction. She still smiles at him when she gave him the lunch box. But he was not the only one she gives it to. It was clear that she still idolized him. But he was not special to her anymore. Luther had never thought that such a day would finally come. His tail of 12 years was finally leaving his side. But there was one thing he did not expect. He never expected that he would be the one to hate this change.

Can Maya and Leo make it out?

Astra Wilson, a demonologist from Los Angeles, embarks on a groundbreaking expedition with her partner, Marcus Ryan, to uncover an ancient occult temple buried in the Egyptian desert. Hidden within the temple lies a mysterious sword, believed to be a key to a gateway to Hell. When Astra accidentally activates the sword with her blood, she unwittingly awakens its dark power. She takes the sword to a British museum, where it is unknowingly stored—until the sword's activation triggers a partial opening of the infernal gateway. Demons pour forth, possessing the dead and turning them into vessels of destruction. This cataclysm begins in Egypt and quickly spreads across Britain and the rest of the world, plunging humanity into an apocalyptic nightmare. The demon-possessed corpses infect the living by marking their hearts, slowly killing them and paving the way for more demonic hosts. Astra and Marcus join forces with a band of survivors, determined to end the demonic plague. The demons seek the sword to fully open the gateway and unleash the full forces of Hell upon the mortal world. As Astra uncovers the devastating truth—that her actions caused the apocalypse—she learns the only way to close the portal is by sacrificing herself. In a harrowing race against time, Astra fights to recover the sword and make the ultimate sacrifice, but not without losing those she holds dear. Though her heroic act succeeds in halting the first apocalypse, her story does not end there. Astra returns, transformed into a demon driven to orchestrate a second, even deadlier apocalypse that threatens to annihilate humanity. Now, the remaining survivors must confront their former ally, battling not only to stop her but also to restore her humanity before the forces of Hell consume the world entirely.

Love of Fortune and Steel is a historical fantasy that weaves together romance, comedy, adventure, and the clash of worlds. James, a modern-day banker with an unwavering passion for history, experiences an extraordinary transformation during a routine museum visit. A mysterious supernatural force transmigrates him into a parallel medieval realm—a world familiar yet distinctly altered with its own unique nations, rulers, customs, and the presence of mana, a mystical energy that enhances martial prowess. In this enigmatic land, James encounters Bisera, a formidable and strikingly beautiful general of the Vakerian Empire, locked in a desperate struggle against the powerful Gillyrian Empire. Utilizing items granted by the supernatural entity, James saves Bisera’s life. Grateful and believing him to be a divine emissary sent by the Universal Spirit in response to her prayer, Bisera invites James to join her in defending the Vakerian Empire. As two souls isolated by their disparate worlds, a profound romance swiftly ignites between them. However, Bisera’s devout faith and the heavy burden of her responsibilities compel her to restrain their relationship, fearing that any overt passion might conflict with her duties and incur the wrath of the Universal Spirit, condemning their souls and the Vakerian Empire to ruin. James, enthralled by Bisera’s personality and talent, finds himself irresistibly drawn to her, yet frustrated by the invisible barriers she maintains. The vast differences in their worldviews and customs, coupled with James’s determination to return to his own world—an eventuality that might irrevocably separate them—act as chains on their blossoming love. With his modern knowledge and items, along with Bisera’s reliance on him, James quickly becomes an invaluable asset to the Vakerian Empire. However, this also makes him a target of Vakerian court politics and Gillyrian diplomacy. Their bond is further tested with the arrival of Saralta, a bold and free-spirited cavalry commander from the Vakerian steppes. In stark contrast to Bisera’s reserved and devout nature, Saralta pursues James with unbridled confidence and charm, challenging Bisera’s deeply held beliefs. Saralta’s liberal approach to love ignites a complex and often comical love triangle, forcing Bisera to confront her fear of losing James to Saralta’s advances and her greater dread of endangering their souls should they succumb to their feelings. As the Gillyrian onslaught intensifies, James, Bisera, and Saralta are swept into a maelstrom of love, duty, and faith. Bisera grapples with her unwavering sense of duty and steadfast faith, torn by the love that binds her to James. Saralta oscillates between the allure of freedom and the demands of propriety. Meanwhile, James must navigate his deep emotional devotion to Bisera and his fiery physical attraction to Saralta, all while striving to find a way between the two worlds before losing them both.

Zorian Kazinski has all the time in the world to get stronger, and he plans on taking full advantage of it. A teenage mage of humble birth and slightly above-average skill, Zorian is attending his third year of education at Cyoria's magical academy. A driven and quiet young man, he is consumed by a desire to ensure his own future and free himself of the influence of his family, resenting the Kazinskis for favoring his brothers over him. Consequently, Zorian has no time for pointless distractions, much less other people's problems. As it happens, though, time is something he is about to get plenty of. On the eve of Cyoria's annual summer festival, Zorian is murdered, then abruptly brought back to the beginning of the month, just before he was about to take the train to school. Finding himself trapped in a time loop with no clear end or exit, he will have to look both within and without to unravel the mystery set before him. He does have to unravel it, too, because the loop clearly wasn’t made for his sake, and in a world of magic even a time traveler isn't safe from those who wish him ill. Fortunately for Zorian, repetition is the mother of learning…

Born in the slums of the war-torn city-state of Drakmoor, Ardyn Veyne’s life was carved by betrayal, survival, and violence. At ten, he witnessed his family brutally executed during a coup. Sold into slavery, he endured years of unimaginable horrors until he seized an opportunity for escape, leaving a trail of blood behind. Now, armed with the enigmatic “System of Judgment”, Ardyn carves his path as a mercenary and information broker in a brutal, dystopian world. But the System doesn’t just grant power; it judges every choice he makes, offering rewards for cold pragmatism and punishing acts of unnecessary compassion. As political conspiracies, ancient forces, and personal vendettas intertwine, Ardyn is thrust into a game far bigger than himself—one where his decisions will tip the balance between the world's survival or its annihilation.

Born as a Traut, Evelyn's life is one of relentless suffering under the oppressive Federation's rule. Her existence is defined by despair, discrimination, and persecution. Suddenly thrown into the spotlight, Evelyn conceals her origins as she embarks on a mission of revenge. She silently awaits her opportunity to strike and bring down the entire Federation regime. *** IMPORTANT NOTICE: This novel does have a system-power, however it comes a bit later in the chapters (but not that late don't worry) because the beginning is mostly story builiding and character development. This is a primarily action/fantasy novel. However, I’ll be dabbling into other genres like mystery and thriller throughout. Please note the mc is not OP out of the gate, but it is a constant progress. There will not be 24/7 action. There are slower chapters that just focus on story building. (If you are looking for a similar theme but action-heavy please check out my other novel called Danger Outside). I highly recommend if you are looking for a novel that focuses on both storybuilding and quality character developments. I will be uploading 1 chapter every week on Sunday mornings EST time. Please express your interests in the comments!!!
