Jessie Tempest In A Teacup

Brave individuals who travel beyond safe beaches have been plagued by terrible stories of sirens with deadly beauty and tunes that steal brains for as long as ships have flown. Presuming the life of young Captain Seraphine's father, a seasoned sailor washed ashore with unusual, magical tattoos scorched into his skin, these terrible tales For Seraphine, these tales have little significance; however, when she finds her father's abandoned ship floating on the sea, she understands there is only one path forward—to learn what happened and honor his name. But no one dares to join her on her journey because they believe curses follow women near water. Equipped with her father's blueprints and an iron will, Seraphine sails alone across the Seven Seas to meet the relentless storms, ghostly whispers, and forbidden waters. But one beautiful night her net catches an injured merman fighting the iron threads instead of fish. Uncertain but fascinated, Seraphine lets him aboard without knowing that this unusual creature bears the keys to the darkness she is searching for. Between loyalty to his community and developing love for Seraphine, Rowan, the merman, finds himself divided. They negotiate a dangerous half-truth territory where the sea and heavens entwine in a maze of secrets together. With every wave, Seraphine is approaching the truth even at a cost. Old powers seeking to claim both of them draw their attention as they walk farther. The Merman's Lure offers a horrible tale of love, dishonesty, and the thin line separating mankind from mythology, therefore it forces Seraphine to choose whether the answers she searches are worth the darkness they unleash.

I died. That's obvious. But I was reborn. How? Don't ask me. Maybe it was some god. A divine being? Ah- It doesn't matter. My life burned away and now- well I'm stuck here in this black void. This dungeon. Maybe I had lived a pious last life. Laughable as that was. But I was given a second chance. Told to grow my dungeon, to create hulking monstrosities that would destroy the world. In short, I am now a villain. I am the consciousness of the dungeon, the little orb at the end my body. And still I live. A projection of a body is created - a trap - and I am that. I am the one to guide foolish adventurers to their death. My looks are curated. Soft features that entrap the mind. I am the dungeon. I am the projection, I am human, and I am the dungeon. And I will conquer all. Every being will bow before my might. "Before you're cuteness~" Ah- heh- that too... help... I didn't ask to look this cute!

If you really want to know what they sell, ask the little red and violet creature that sits in the counter, it will explain while the manager sleeps, or just wait for it to electrocute the manager.

A Short Story with no actual meaning just to appreciate a few aesthetics I love

A man doesn't need a lot to be happy, such a man was Cedrick Cassiel. He had everything he wanted and more. Emphasis on the had, because he couldn't prevent the tragedy that struck him and his family by the hands of a psychopathic serial killer. Following his death, he was granted the name Eldris by a powerful Death God, linked with the last legacy of said Death God's best friend and now without a family or friends of his own, he finds himself in another world - a world of Cultivation. Men and women alike ignite their spirits and traverse the world in pursuit of Power, Prestige or Knowledge. Immortality isn't a dream in this world, it is real and everyone is after it. But there's just one problem... Eldris is a stone. As an inanimate object, his life and any ambitions that he could ever possibly have in this world have been scattered in the wind. Eldris finds time to overcome his grief and move on. Or maybe he's distracted by the crippling insanity that is an added perk of becoming a stone. But he makes friends along the way and that's the important part. Read on, dear Reader! Because Eldris' real life has only just begun. --------------------------------------- A/N: This is my first time writing a story. Criticism is appreciated, so leave your honest reviews. Also this novel won't have a harem, same could be said for probably all the novels I write in the future. !!! This novel is something I have yet to make a serious dedication to, the update schedule is nonexistent. I won't drop it until it's completed but chapters will be slow. You have been warned dear reader, I am a lazy Author.(To anyone who may have been reading this, I won't be updating for a while. I don't think my writing skills are good enough portray this novel, with all the plans I have in store for it. I want this novel to be something good, so for now I will be learning from other works by authors more skilled than I, and trying to improve my skills. I will update the synopsis when I feel I can continue with this novel.)

..... .... ... It was so painful, It hurts so much, It feels like hell, I felt like I was lying down but my back was not touching anything, No it felt like I was floating Everything was covered in darkness I couldn't see or hear anything it felt like I've lost track of time since I've been here I couldn't move, I couldn't shout, even if I tried no one will hear me because no one is here… After what seems like eternity , I felt something . I thought it was soothing but after a few minutes it started buzzing it started causing pain and it was like electricity zipping into my body and soul it felt like my soul was breaking apart it felt like I was about to burst . It went on for a long time then I heard a girls voice . no . to be precise a woman's voice she said "This is your second chance don't dissapoint me and don't die quickly, also make them pay" Now that I have a new life and I know the odds I vow to do my best to achieve my final gaol which is "REVENGE"

Young girl gets kidnapped and sold off to a man's vicious hands

He received a genetic score of 28... completely disqualifying him from applying to military college! He helped deliver a friend's love letter... and fell into a lake becoming infamous for dying for love! His very first gift... warped him into a brutal training simulation! However he perserved through all these trials! Our Dear Student Wang Zheng has finally started his lucky(?) university life! This is the song of a blood boiling and exciting storm! The most ferocious and heated mecha adventure around is finally here! TL Note: This is a novel about doing the impossible, seeing the invisible. Follow along for a ride across the universe! TL;DR: Not Shakespeare, not complex, but fun and easy to read. Come support! As the translator, I've enjoyed translating this novel and I hope to bring the essence of what the author has tried to portray into the chapters you will read. To sum it up in 3 words: Mechs! Explosions! Science! To be perfectly honest, this novel is about your typically overpowered protagonist who does get looked down from time to time but always overcomes the odds with his own special power. He's abit more mature having grown up on his own and just a littttttttle bit dense. Although it always ends up with him winning, it always happens in an interesting (subjective) and fun way that makes me enjoy reading this. The novel has elements of lighthearted comedy from time to time and I do chuckle at how direct the humor is. It's not as smart as say WMW nor does it weave an intricate story much like Ergen's novels. More importantly, its fun and it doesn't try to hide it.

Be someone that don't take anything granted and be content on what you have. Note: I'll be continuing the chapter upload...
