Amidst the eerie silence of an unfamiliar hall, a cacophony of confused voices rose, mingling in a chorus of bewilderment. "Where are we?" "What happened?" "I thought I died!" Each utterance hung in the air, a testament to the collective disbelief gripping the room. As the haze of confusion lifted, disjointed memories surfaced, fragments of lives cut short by tragedy. "I remember... I was stabbed..." ventured one voice, echoed by another's affirmation of a similar fate. "I... I died in a plane crash," muttered a third, only to be met with a stunned agreement from a fellow survivor. Amidst the chaos of bewildered voices, one man stood apart, his expression a mask of contemplation amidst the turmoil. As his companions recounted their brushes with death, his mind churned with questions, each more confounding than the last. "I got shot... I remember it vividly," he murmured to himself, his voice barely audible above the din. "So how am I still here?" The enigma of their shared resurrection gnawed at him, compelling him to seek answers in the depths of his memories. With each revelation of a paired demise—a male and female, bound by the same tragic fate—a flicker of recognition ignited within him. "This... this seems familiar," he mused, the pieces of a puzzle slowly coalescing in his mind. But the picture remained incomplete, obscured by the fog of uncertainty that shrouded their surroundings. As the words "pairs, pairs, pairs" echoed in his mind like a cryptic mantra, a sudden realization struck him with the force of a revelation. "It can't be... don't tell me..." he whispered, his voice trembling with disbelief. With a sense of urgency, he began to scan his surroundings, searching for any sign or clue that could confirm his suspicions. Then, as if guided by an unseen force, his gaze shifted upwards, and there, bathed in an ethereal light, stood an angelic figure with golden apparel, its gaze fixed upon him with a warm smile. The sight took his breath away, filling him with a mixture of awe and trepidation. The man's heart raced as faced a real angel, his mind struggling to comprehend the surreal encounter unfolding before him. The angel's words, spoken with an air of amusement, only deepened the enigma shrouding their meeting. "I never expected anyone to notice me," the angel remarked, a hint of playfulness in its voice. "I was concealing my presence to let everyone fully calm down, but to think someone noticed me. Just who are you?" Ethan's disbelief and confusion intensified at the angel's question. "Eh... Ethan Rivers," he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. As Aurelia, the angel, finally revealed himself to the bewildered assembly, a hush fell over the room, each soul drawn in by his radiant presence and commanding aura. Ethan's gaze lingered on Aurelia. "Greetings, lost souls," Aurelia declared, his voice resonating with a majestic power that seemed to fill the very air around them. "I am Aurelia, and I shall be your guide to your new life." As Aurelia extended his arms in a gesture of welcome, Ethan felt a surge of rage and hesitation, "This it bad, really bad."

Andres, a middle aged father, wakes up in an unfamiliar world. With an unfamiliar name, donning an unfamiliar face. A world where mana and technology co-existed. Where humanity did not solely rule the planet. Races and creatures thought once as myths now exist as they vie for control on the once conquered world. Amidst all this confusion, a sense familiarity. As if he has heard of this place, somewhere, at a different time and place. "So God has a name? What is it again? Arcus?...." "I feel like I've heard about you before... Rowan was it?" As the pieces start falling into place... "I can't believe I got isekai'd into my son's novel..." A fate surely worse than death. 'Remember son, it's darkest before dawn.' A mantra he once used to provide a semblance of control on his life. Passed down to his progeny, has come back to bite him in an unexpected way. In order to survive and return home, he will need to prepare himself. With his knowledge of what is to come he will tip the scales ever so slightly in his favour. But there's one small problem... "Which one of my son's book am I in?"

Nature never imposes love; it offers it gently, much like a fragile rose unfurling its petals in the morning light. ***** When Sydney's eyes locked with Jordan's, her heart danced a frantic rhythm, and words seemed to dissolve before they could leave her lips. His striking silver eyes glistened like precious stones, while his elegant black tuxedo highlighted every sculpted line of his face, transforming him into a dashing prince from a fairy tale. His warm, gentle smile wrapped around her like a tender embrace, and she felt as though she was yielding to the whispers of destiny. This was that electrifying moment of love at first sight, yet... Sydney's hand instinctively moved to her stomach as she dashed aside, swept up in a torrent of emotions. It wasn't just her heart that raced; her deepest anxieties stirred to life as well. L-O-V-E! Sydney Mia, renowned across the nation as a visionary director, had a clear mantra: "Conquer the world with my films, amass accolades, and secure an immortal legacy." Love was never part of the grand narrative, merely a faint echo in the distance. Yet, Jordan's presence was a gentle tremor, unsettling the core of her being and awakening a yearning she had never acknowledged. There was an undeniable uniqueness about Jordan. He was the calm amid chaos, a sanctuary where she could truly be herself and confront her demons. As she opened her eyes, her hand still quivering, their gazes intertwined once more. His silver eyes radiated an ethereal intensity, brimming with concern and tenderness. "Are you okay?" he inquired, his voice a soothing balm, like a gentle stream winding through a verdant glen. In that instant, Sydney felt her defenses beginning to crumble, her fears slowly unwinding. Could Jordan be the one to ignite her heart, to reveal that love was not a vulnerability, but a formidable force capable of moving mountains and breaking the chains of her deepest insecurities? Could he be the one to inspire her to rewrite her life's script, to place love in the starring role?

When a fellow recruit is brutally murdered by a member of Hollow Ward, the stakes become deadly. Axel, Asaya, and the rest of Swords of Symphony are pulled into a dangerous game, where even strength and strategy may not be enough to stop the growing threat. As the masked enemies close in, secrets about Special Manifestations and the true history of Mantra Knights start to surface. With growing danger and rising tensions, Axel must learn to control his own power and face enemies far more powerful than they could have ever imagined.

Miraculously overnight, he transmigrate into a body of 16 years old orphan teenager with the same name and appearance as him. Other transmigrate into grandeur setting with golden finger and not to mention different sort of other perks. They even have a system! But he waking up on hospital bed with head injury. Not to mention that relatives of him that definitely has shady intentions. Oh well, at least he meet a 'study tyrant' that look alike to that one actor he loves watching despite his stiff acting. It is not that Cheng Jiayi can revert to his old self despite how he want to. Well anyway he still can cuddle the bossy cat in his hostel room and enjoy the life of teenager, minus going to school all over again, not that education is not important, mind you. The 'study tyrant' with appearance like his favourite stiff actor could not stop emphasize this to him. But why this 'study tyrant' seems chanting mantra and churning out charms and amulet like he practicing to be a devil vanquisher monk in mainland drama. Yang Guang surely can be good looking monk. But still what with this amulet that he given to him as protections while tutoring him math problems. Seriously, Yang Guang might watch too much fantasy c-drama. Unexpected of 'study tyrant' of his calibre. Yet little that Cheng Jiayi know, transmigrating to this teenager body is only the beginning of a saga of an epic proportion(its only walk at school corridor at night nothing epic about it - Yang Guang) that filled with suspense (awkward), tensions (bumbling) and excitement ( Cheng Jiayi you are not excited, you basically screaming and crying hideously, I have video proof of that). Shut up fake monk !! Cheng Jiayi was so not screaming and crying hideously. At the very least he definitely look good even when screaming and crying.

Overnight, Guan Xuxu rose from a destitute woman who swept out the door of the Guan family to a true daughter worth billions of dollars! Former family members were filled with regret, and surprisingly, the lion opened his mouth and demanded half of the Jiang family's wealth? Hmph, Guan Xuxu is not a vegetarian. A mantra reveals the greed and ugliness of the Guan family. And when the scumbag seeks reconciliation, she mercilessly gives him the privilege of "meeting his ancestors". This seemingly delicate woman actually holds a secret technique that can ward off evil, draw talismans, save people, and easily hold onto her golden thighs! Guan Xuxu, a name that was once insignificant in the Guan family, has now become a legend in the entire wealthy community. Guan Jia, the cold place that once swept her out of the house, is now regretful. They thought that with the so-called nurturing kindness, the lion could speak up and demand half of its wealth from the Jiang family as a reward. However, they were wrong, and Guan Xuxu was no longer the little girl who was easily bullied back then. Faced with the shameless demands of the Guan family, Guan Xuxu just sneered. She lightly uttered a mantra, leaving the ugly faces of the Guan family nowhere to hide. The so-called family members who once mocked and laid stones on her now look like clowns in front of her. They were horrified to discover that the woman they once looked down upon had such terrifying strength and means. And the scumbag who once betrayed her now has the audacity to turn back and entangle. However, Guan Xuxu mercilessly waved his hand and directly asked him to "see his ancestors" night and night. This kind of punishment is undoubtedly worse than death for a scumbag, but it also makes him completely understand a truth: some people, once missed, will not do it again. The cousins of the Guan family originally couldn't see Guan Xuxu and thought she was embarrassing. However, reality gave them a loud slap in the face. The head of the Song family personally visited Guan Xuxu, hoping that she would take action to save his daughter. The Xu family, who have always had old grudges with the Jiang family, also licked their faces and came to apologize and seek peace. They finally realized that Guan Xuxu was not only a true daughter with a value of billions, but also a mysterious master! Even the cousin who has always been hostile towards heaven and earth has now become a loyal follower of Guan Xuxu. "This is my only sister!" He arrogantly declared that whoever dares to curse her will curse the entire family! This transformation left everyone stunned but also confirmed the status and strength of Guan Xuxu. The Jiang family, who had regained their senses, only knew that the little pitiful person they once thought was such a powerful person. Exorcism, drawing talismans, and rescuing people, which are unattainable for ordinary people, are easily accessible to Guan Xuxu. And her ability to chase after golden thighs has made countless people envious. However, for all of this, Guan Xuxu simply said calmly, "I'm so busy." It seemed like all of this was just a piece of cake for her. And at this moment, Chu Beihe, known as the Golden Thighs, also took the initiative to share the pressure on Guan Xuxu. He said affectionately, "No need to chase, it's already yours." This statement undoubtedly declared his ownership of Guan Xuxu to the world. From this moment on, Guan Xuxu not only has the confidence of being worth billions, but also has the solid support of Chu Beihe. How wonderful and colorful will her life be? Let's wait and see together!

"Attachments are unneeded" It was both the first and last thing my old man told me. To be an effective killer you must not feel for the enemy. To be an effective mercenary you must not feel remorse. A contract is a contract. The Client is god for us. To us the value of money is more important than ideals. Hope won't feed you. Sometimes those very same ideals could poison your entire being. Possess you into something more than what you aimed to be. Embrace nothingness, Coin is God. That was the mantra of every mercenary. That was what I believed for so long, until I met her. She pulled me out of that murky swamp. Shining an inexhaustible light, creating a solid path we could tread on to. She was the reason I could keep on moving forwards. The only reason I gave a damn about anything. However, soon enough, like all roads, it soon crumbled into rubble, nothing but relics of bygone memories remained. Plunging me back down deeper into that black and murky waters once more. I reveled in it. I let it consume me, become the very thing we swore to destroy. The very same thing my old man told me about. A monster borne from the hypocrisy of those ideals, yet desperately clinging onto it like a mad man. This is the tale of a fool who once known love, oh so beautiful yet poisonous it consumed him. A tale of a fool who yearns for redemption yet revels in his own self hatred. A monstrosity borne not from necessity, but from anguish.

"You need money and I need a wife, so deal or no deal? Lucian lazily asked ignoring the woman who was glaring at him as if wishing for him to drop dead at the moment "Just know it's a contract and nothing more!! Summer boomed "It is what it is, if not so urgent, I wouldn't consider a flat woman like you" Summer almost puked blood hearing him Flat woman? did he just say I'm flat?! She subconsciously looked down at her boobs and understood "What a spoilt unscrupulous man! She mumbled and Lucian's gaze darkened as he gripped her arm tight "What did you say? He demanded, his face gloomy.... ********* Summer Hales, a young woman with a complex past, found herself entangled in a web of responsibilities, dropping out of school to undertake multiple part-time jobs solely to alleviate the burden of her brother's escalating hospital bills. Her resilience was encapsulated in the phrase "Rudeness ain't only for the rich," as she navigated life with a blend of boldness and subtlety. In matters of the heart, Summer was paradoxical. She approached love with an unwavering commitment, yet harbored a devious edge when consumed by hatred. Behind her facade of courage, fearlessness, strength, and fierceness lay a vulnerability shielded from a world that had previously wounded her. "Never fall and keep tall" became her daily mantra, a testament to her determination not to succumb to vulnerabilities. On the other hand is Lucian Stuart, a formidable and emotionally guarded man in Los Angeles. He embodied power, disdain for love, and a reputation as a stern figure with a penchant for retribution against those who wronged him. Despite societal expectations and the call of circumstance, Lucian found himself in need of a wife, a notion at odds with his aversion to love and women. Fate, however, wove an unexpected narrative, pushing Summer and Lucian into a contractual alliance—a temporary marriage born out of necessity. The intriguing question now lingered in the air: Could love blossom between two individuals with starkly different perspectives on life and love? As Summer and Lucian navigated the complexities of their arrangement, the answer unfolded in the intricate dance of emotions, challenging preconceived notions and reshaping the contours of their lives.

Although it began in the orphanage like most of the cases, it seemed different this time. She was adopted by a multi-child family as soon as she was reborn. Father Ye: Didn't you want a sister? From now on, Xing'er will be your sister. Seven brothers: Yeah, is this our sister? So cute! Since then, Ye Xing had lived a life of group spoiling. Seven older brothers even fought for scrambling to peel shrimps for their younger sister, which made Ye Xing, who had an adult soul in the body, felt that this world was so magical. Later, the brothers suddenly discovered that as long as they had more contact with their sister, they would be lucky. Bought bad stocks? Don't be afraid, the stock soared 300% one second before the close! Picking up a lottery ticket on the ground? Oh, the first prize in the national lottery fell into the Ye family! Even if they picked up a broken necklace by the trash can, some handsome men came, taking his sister for keeping as a mistress! With the help of Ye Xing’s luck, the seven elder brothers have gradually grown into bigwigs in various fields. Years later, when the seven brothers gave their achievement testimonials, they glanced at each other and said with one voice: These are the credits of my sister! Character setting of the female lead: Full of good luck buff, can bring good luck to the people around, turning bad luck into good luck. Being optimistic, cheerful, helpful, and having good cooking skills, bringing happiness to everyone. The character setting of the male lead: Tsundere childhood friends, pretending to be mature, always mocking the naive hostess. Like saying poisonous words, but willing to accompany the female lead to do some naive things. A genius with a high IQ and protect the female lead unconditionally. Mantra: You stupid girl, are you nuts?

Those who oppose them and Don't use this power for them are the ones know as criminals later changed to villains. What is my perspective on it (MC) Should they free the use of power?? NO! Mantra is the manifestation of someone's Will, ideology, and Soul. But that doesn't mean what they do is right, even if they have the will of a saint. Justice??? It's dead the day they compromised. So what shall we do if we live in a CHAOTIC TIME YOU SAY? CHAOS??? When in the history of any HUMANKIND has there not been CHAOS, only those who can rise with a iron will in these Chaotic time, can shape the SOCIETY into a worse or maybe something better, for the upcoming Generation can or should be know AS HERO. Doing the right thing and a CHANGE is 2 VERY different things friend. Funny right??? How the title of such a MAGNITUDE is now given to some WANA BE and Attention h*es. What a CHAOTIC TIME. A hero is a beacon of hope, a god like being, who brings hope like morning newspaper. But do you really think everyone is a hero?? Or does the Society EVEN DESERVES ONE??? Don't Think you are innocent as you didn't commit a crime, Their is a large amount of blank history right?? Don't take the society ever so lightly Because you don't know, what they wanted to be blank is already blank. So here i am Telling you a story of a Man Who was born in these chaotic time. And learned that RIGHT thing and change for the right thing are 2 different dimensions. THE ONE FORGOTTEN BY THE WORLD. Who stood on the STAGE OF WORLD ALONG SIDE. The leader of criminals who wants the world to user in a age of pure interest, loans paid by people's soul. and Chikara Minamoto. A fools who didn't understood his mother's ideals but worry not Now that the hero have been betrayed the very Society he wanted to Change, betrayed by the people he wanted to help. It wouldn't hurt so much if it was your companion who betrayed you but the people??!! who i wanted to help, people whose lives i wanted to improve, are the one who brought my END. Well here i am reborn again The first but now a {{{{{BROKEN HERO}}}}} but worry not i will not wake up, as i know my anger will destroy my DREAMS, but i'll pass these sharp fangs to the one who truly knows how to change the world but is powerless. SO worry and worry not. Now there is no HERO. But a broken one.

Saat ini adalah malam Jum'at Kliwon. Suara tetes air hujan terdengar jelas dari atap rumah Seroja, yang terbuat dari genteng tanah liat. Sebuah sobekan kecil, kain kafan putih tergeletak di atas meja riasnya. Seroja mengambil sebuah silet, yang tergeletak di samping kain kafan tersebut. Sambil menyeringai sinis dan membaca mantra, yang pernah diajarkan oleh Ibunya, Nyai Ayu Rembulan. Kemudian dia mulai menyayat sedikit ujung jari telunjuknya, agar dapat mengeluarkan darah segar. Pada saat darah menetes, Seroja mulai menuliskan tujuh nama laki-laki di atas sobekan kain kafan tersebut. "Besok, aku akan menyelipkan kain kafan ini di jenazah Rembulan. Agar rohnya kelak dapat membantu aku, membalaskan semua dendam!" gumam Seroja sambil menyeringai penuh kebencian.
