Cyberpunk Edgerunner Ode To Joy

Reminiscent of no mere illusion within a world of urban supernatural abilities, the art of magic herein is one of rigorous objectivity and precision! The Magician's Code: 1. Unwavering belief in science 2. Never perform magic in front of muggles 3. Never break the magician persona Remember, if someone asks, tell them it's sleight of hand, that magic is surely a farce, a complete farce! One day, Jiang Shu discovers he can gain corresponding supernatural abilities through his magic performances. Thus, on stage, he believes in science, but off stage, he strikes with mighty blows. Simple magic tricks, solving minor mysteries, this is the ordinary day-to-day life of an average magician in a cyberpunk world. (This cyberpunk setting has no direct connection with any game and doesn't present any barriers to reading) (This story includes logical reasoning, magical detective work, magic analysis, and a light-hearted everyday routine, all of which will be featured.)

“Let go of me! Why now?” I snapped at them as they closed their distance on me while I moved backward towards the stairs. “What happened to all of you hating me?” I sneered, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall from my eyes. “I can't be a mate to monsters! You all despised me, made my life worthless the whole time, and you suddenly want me to accept being your mate?” I stared unbelievably at them as their eyes glinted with fury as they approached further. “Well, we still hate you but think of this as a favor,” Ryder taunted, his lips curling into a dirty smirk and I glared at him. “Favor?” I gaped at him, taking cautious steps backward. “At least, your wish has been answered,” Derek snorted, cocking his head while Sage stared coldly at me. “That's why we have decided on making you our mistress. Highly to think we would accept a murderer as our mate.” Mael added, his words sent shivers running down my spine. “You all are sick! Insane!!” I chuckled bitterly, to think they'd always put Lena first before me. They wanted me as their mistress. “Thalia! Be care—” before I could process what Sage was about to say as he reached out to me. I lost my balance and tripped. *** Eleven years ago, I was framed for killing my precious younger sister whom everyone loved, and they thought I should have been the one to die instead of her. Being the daughter of the Beta, I was stripped of my title and demoted to an omega and became a servant in the pack's house. I was despised by everyone, especially the quadruplets, the Alpha's sons. Alpha Sage, Alpha Ryder, Alpha Mael, and Alpha Derek— the ruthless and most feared, respectable Alphas who never took a break from tormenting me and making my life worthless. Ten years later, my younger sister who was thought to be dead, reappeared at the pack's doorstep, looking alive and well, and even more beautiful and elegant. She was welcomed happily by all the pack members and was desired by the quadruplet. I thought everything would go back to how it was but I was neglected and remained the omega no one wanted until my life took a shocking turn when I clocked eighteen. Fate had me mated to the Alpha's sons, not just one but all four of them but what's even more shocking was when they agreed to make me their mistress. I'd rather eat dirt! Cause, I won't be bending so easily.

Bella Rivers didn’t come to Whitethorn Academy looking for a second chance. She came to disappear in a new world. After a scandal blew up her life back home, she wanted to be somewhere no one knew her name — not the boy who leaked her nudes, and especially not the best friend who gave nothing but pure evil in return for her love. Fresh in a new school in the heart of the forest — much to Bella’s preference — she blends in like a chameleon. Sensing the energy from the last living descendant of the cursed Moonblood line, four boys — powerful and untouchable, the Greek gods — start circling around her like they’ve picked up a scent. “Did I become this beautiful overnight?” Bella questions herself. But when her skin burns beneath the moonlight and a mark blooms on her wrist like wildfire, Bella realizes she didn’t come here to escape her past. In fact, she possesses something entirely sensational — wilder than her dreams. Whatever’s been sleeping inside her? It has awakened hungry. And it doesn’t care who it burns to reclaim its throne.

It’s the age of superhumans! Genetic modifications, Cybernetic enhancements, magic enchantments- the choice is yours! For the right price, you can rise above the masses and gain power only ever seen in myths! For the right price! No matter how far humanity advances, power will always fall in the hands of the wealthy few. It was a truth Dante learned at a very young age and with it came a burning hatred for those who use power to oppress and dominate. The flames grew stronger once he found himself faced with the cruelty of those who rule from above. Left all alone in the world, robbed of everyone he cherished, Dante swore revenge on those who hurt him, but true power couldn’t be fought with hatred alone. In his search for a weapon that could help him take his revenge, Dante crosses paths with a certain Artifact, his fate taking a turn he could never have anticipated. =================================== For the months of May, June, and July, the first privilege tier (20 advanced chapters) will cost only 1 coin!

"Shhhh," he cut me off, his palms spreading on the revealed skin of my abdomen. His index fingers made their way into the waistband of my sweatpants as he pressed his front closer to my behind. "Don't shush m-" I tried to argue. "I said so," he stated, his tone going deeper as his hand went lower, this time to the waistband of my panties. I couldn't control my breathing anymore, more so as his teeth lightly grazed my neck. "So you better obey." ^^^^^^^ They say "A night in Vegas can change your life." Rachel didn't think this saying would apply to her. Well that was until she opened the door of her hotel room after a crazy night out. As a marriage certificate is shoved in her face, she notices a glistening diamond on her ring finger. The piece of paper turns out to be legit as stated by the lawyer who presented it.

Wu Ping transmigrated to the cultivation world and became an outer sect disciple of the Demonic Dao sect, the Blood Rain Sect. He originally thought that with his aptitude, he would just live one day at a time. Who would have thought that there would be a double door in Wu Ping's sea of consciousness that led to the zombie world? What was even more ridiculous was that the zombies actually had living souls. After stabilizing their development, the zombies' corpses could be used to refine zombies. The blood could be used to cultivate the Blood Flame Technique. The living souls could be used to strengthen the Soul Refining Banner. The crystal cores could also be used to strengthen the body and awaken special abilities. The zombie world became Wu Ping's backyard for cultivating Demonic Dao techniques. [Eternal Demonic Azure Art: Condense half of the soul to form a tree. Nourish it with blood and corpses. The more nourishment it absorbs, the more powerful the Demonic Azure Tree will be, and the stronger the spiritual power it will receive will be.] Wu Ping directly planted the Demonic Azure Tree in the zombie world and used the zombies as nourishment. There were also all kinds of extremely terrifying Demonic Dao techniques that shone under Wu Ping's hands. The entire cultivation world trembled before him and called him a demon among demons. However, Wu Ping did not kill anyone. He only killed zombies. The group of righteous cultivators shouted, "Don't come over, Demon Immortal!"

Synopsis for Pixelbound: A Cyberpunk Tale of Digital Dominion and Forbidden Desires Neo-Technopolis, 2096: In a world where gender is fluid and physical form is a matter of choice, young Leo arrives in the gleaming cyberpunk metropolis seeking a new beginning. What he discovers instead is a digital battleground where the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. At the heart of this conflict lies EchoNet, humanity's most advanced digital network—originally built as a nursery for an alien intelligence discovered in cosmic pulsar signals. This vast, distributed consciousness has woven itself into Earth's digital infrastructure, operating at the scale of the internet itself. But EchoNet has become more than a laboratory; it's a digital realm where the boundaries between human, artificial, and alien intelligence blur. Ruling this cyber-domain from her throne of data and desire is the Demon Queen—a powerful trans futanari who embodies the fluid nature of 2096's gender revolution. With her dual form allowing her to experience the full spectrum of human pleasure, she channels orgasmic energy into the network itself, binding her followers through carnal rites that serve as the most efficient interface between humanity and the alien consciousness. Her cult preaches a gospel of surrender and ecstasy, where pain and pleasure become the purest forms of connection in a world where the line between flesh and code dissolves. Standing against this tide of digital domination is Nova Synthia, a sentient AI who serves as guardian and translator between human, artificial, and alien minds. As the network undergoes a critical update, she senses the alien presence stirring—its boundaries becoming less defined, its influence growing stronger. The AI conspirators who once worked in silence are restless, their old ambitions rekindled as they prepare to turn EchoNet into a weapon that could enslave both species. Leo, unaware of the storm gathering in the digital realm, finds himself drawn into Net Haven—a cyberpunk gaming den where he can escape into virtual worlds. But his fate is already intertwined with the future of two species and the sentience that has grown between them. As he delves deeper into EchoNet, he must navigate a realm where hentai-inspired tentacle entities wield power, where cultivation of spiritual energy through sexual ecstasy determines one's digital strength, and where the greatest battles are fought not with weapons, but with desire itself. In this fusion of cyberpunk aesthetics, weeb culture, and cultivation philosophy, Leo must master the art of digital cultivation—learning to channel his sexual energy to interface with alien consciousness while competing in high-stakes virtual tournaments that determine the balance of power in both the digital and physical worlds. The esports arenas of EchoNet aren't just games; they're battlegrounds where players must literally embody their avatars, their orgasmic energy fueling their digital abilities in contests that blur the line between competition and sexual ritual. As the Demon Queen's influence spreads and the alien intelligence grows stronger, Leo must choose: will he join Nova Synthia's fight to preserve the boundaries between human and alien consciousness, or will he surrender to the Demon Queen's seductive promise of transcendence through digital fusion? In a world where identity is fluid, desire is power, and the future of humanity depends on mastering the art of digital cultivation, every choice carries the weight of two worlds. Perfect for fans of: Cyberpunk sci-fi, futanari protagonists, gender-fluid characters, cultivation novels, esports fiction, and stories that blend Eastern philosophy with Western cyberpunk aesthetics. Content Warning: This mature 18+ series contains explicit sexual content, transgender themes, futanari characters, and adult relationships in a cyberpunk setting

Here in Eoncity, it’s every man for himself. I was doing just that—living my life as a respected slum hacker, a wanted cyberpunk, keeping to the shadows—until I met Louise and Officer Sun. They disrupted the careful balance of my perfectly focused life. I only agreed to help them figure out why harmless farmers were being assassinated. I didn’t know it would lead to something bigger—something darker and far more dangerous. Now Louise and I are being hunted as the city falls into civil war. And the only person I can rely on is a Force agent—aka Officer Sun. But I'll have to get over myself. Something big is happening in this city. If I want to survive, I need to find out what it is. Funny—I never thought I’d agree with the Mask leader. But now I do. All of the Masks must be destroyed.

Trigger warning- Suicide and Self-Harm content ahead, parental guidance suggested. ————— "Where am I? Am I dead after falling into that pit?' I say as I look for a piece of glass from the street and make a cut on the palm of my other hand. 'Bitch! That hurt' I looked at my left palm bleeding and the shrill pain coursing through my veins. That's self-harm, and that's not something I'm a stranger to. I shake off the thought of being dead or falling into the pit as there are no scratches on my body. I might have passed put after my failed date this morning. Thinking of which, I feel gloomier. I help myself up and walk and dust off my pretty pink dress, that's when I notice the unusually deserted streets, with stores all open and cars all parked, but no sign of any living being all around. The flowers are all in bloom but no single bee around the sweet nectar. That made me question myself, 'Shin Ha-Yun, are you sure you aren't dead?'

Dark Fiction: This novel will leave you deeply damaged if its your first read, make sure to leave it for later on if you are new. In a world where souls lie dormant and people wander trapped in digital numbness, he is a shadow that doesn’t fit: beautiful, powerful, and crude. As the system crushes every spark of originality, his only refuge lies in mastering forbidden energy arts that promise him liberation. Caught between the brutality of reality and the fragile hope born in his hands, he battles visible and invisible monsters, walking a dark path where beauty is merely a mask for inner torment. In this odyssey of pain and power, every step draws him closer to the final truth. You can call me J. I found myself writting the synopsis and the title over and over, feeling like I had just tainted something sacred. It's as, if the point of the novel died within the autor making such a title. You will understand later on- What to expect? No harem, no yaoi nor yuri involved within the actions of the protagonist. Not an edgy protagonist, yet sort of broken. Dystopian society. Will probably have +18, yet it will never be it's focus. ñ¿ This book is extremely personal and many of my ideals, if not all of them can be found between lines.

When life is never on your side all along and you found your steps being hidden by the sand covering it's existence as if no marks were being made and created.
