But she was also once one of the moon goddess’s three pillars. She was in charge of assigning mates, but her curiosity into what it would feel like to have a mate, to fall in love was considered a breach of rules. The goddess’s three pillars do not fall in love!

In a world of werewolves where shifting was a must, what would happen to her? A girl who never shifted? Never manifested. What would she do now, suddenly having found herself struck with a heat cycle—something she had never once experienced. She was abnormal, never manifested, yet, there she stood in the middle of hundreds of guests drowning in her sudden heat that one way or the other drew his attention. Keelion Fane. The one who should have never known. He is the leader of the pack, but he is feared—said to be cold-hearted and cruel. He is an alpha who hasn’t found his mate for so long that he had no choice but to find a substitute. But Alexis was stuck. With nowhere to run, in his grasp. She…was doomed.

The girl gave a sudden cry of protest. The leader of the beggars had caught her arm and, as she reached out for her dagger, the second man caught her free arm and twisted it up and away from her belt....... Authur sighed and quickly turned throwing back his cloak and drew his sword from where it was hanging behind his left shoulder. Producing weapons from under their rag clothes, the band of four beggars turned to deal with the newcomer. Authur sent the first man sprawling in the dust with a shrewd blow from his sword, as a dagger was raised to strike him. The second beggar had a cudgel, and as he slashed at Authur, he found himself facing an incredibly long sword, probably the longest he had seen in his life, snaking over the top of his hand to prick at his throat. The man howled, tripping over his feet in an effort to avoid the wicked looking sword. The third beggar attempted to come over from behind Authur, but Authur as if having eyes behind him quickly stepped to his right hand side, throwing his sword from his right hand to his left hand to meet the leader of the gang who himself had a wicked looking blade of his own also, which was sent flying at an incredibly fast speed from his hand. The leader howled and doubled over, clutching at his elbow. It was over.........

I died… killed by the very Shard of Mirror I shattered. And when I opened my eyes, I wasn’t myself anymore. I had transmigrated into my favorite game—not as a hero, not as a villain, but as an extra.  In a world where Sigils dictate power, I found myself in the body of a boy who had already died on the battlefield. Yet, as I drew breath in his place, his Sigil changed. A power never meant for him, never meant for me. Thrown into the bloodstained playground of rulers, I must carve my own path. But the deeper I walk, the more I realize… this world is far more mysterious than the game ever showed it to be.

On a noisy night in the city, in a small studio at the corner of the street, soft light illuminated the window surrounded by shimmering piano keys. Inside, behind the elegant keys, a handsome man named Steve sat with intense focus. His sharp features and charming smile exuded a mysterious aura that captivated anyone who looked at him. Steve was not just a piano teacher; he was a maestro in the world of music, with skills that could make hearts race. Every finger that danced over the keys produced melodies capable of transporting listeners to another realm. However, his talent was not the only thing that drew attention. Behind the dazzling notes he played was a captivating charm that made his students, aged 17 and up, shiver whenever he discussed music. One of them was Viona, an 18-year-old girl with dreams of becoming a skilled pianist. With each lesson, Viona felt enchanted by Steve's charisma, and in every piano beat, she experienced the tension between pride in her progress and the shyness that lingered in her heart when interacting with her handsome teacher. In the practice sessions that began with dancing piano keys, there was more than just music lessons hidden between them. A story involving love, dreams, and vulnerability, where each melody could open a window into their souls, and each session became more than just notes — but also a step toward something deeper. Steve and Viona would come to realize that sometimes, the most beautiful melodies are not the ones played on stage, but those that resonate in their hearts...

Everyone thought that the world was about to end. Lu Ping drew his sword, ready to defend his home. “Honey! Stop! It’s me!” Feng Xiaoqi, the phoenix, pleaded. Lu Ping looked at the phoenix in awe as he dropped his sword. “We have Xu Xian in the past, and we have Lu Ping in the present!

"But you… " he was ready to call her out for what she said earlier but she placed her finger on his lips knowing what he was about to say next. His smile widened when he observed something.

"This part could be more painful" he warned while healing her. She winced lightly and he stroked her face. "You've got to dominate, and I don't care if you're the seventh mundane or not".

(This is the first thing I'm writing so please don't be too harsh with the constructive criticism.) Ths follows a fan of the Naruto shippuden anime when he finds a video on YouTube about interesting game about the anime, the game was a walk through of the entire Naruto shippuden anime but not from the perspective of the canonical characters but a original player character allowing nearly limitless RP potential for the player and that the game is currently on early access. After seeing the video he told his friends and sent them the link only for them to find a rickroll, seeing the responses from his friends he downloaded the game to show them the game, seeing the download time he drew what he wanted his character to look like and went to sleep waiting for it to finish downloading. When our protagonist woke up from his slumber he realized that he was in a terrible situation when he saw a shrouded figure looming over him with red eyes and a blade and at that point he knew that his life would either end or it would never be the same ever again. (I own none of the Naruto shippuden characters that will be in this novel as this is in no way supplementaly related to the story as this is a fan made piece of media.)

In a world filled with strange phenomena where people and beasts coexist, humans possess the ability to control powerful beasts. A young man named Gu Tian met his end in his original world, but his fate did not conclude there. A mysterious force drew his soul into a new world, where he was reborn as a newborn in a world completely different from his previous one. In this world, everyone, upon reaching the age of 18, awakens at least one innate talent, which ranges across eight levels: SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, and F. These talents often shape a person's destiny, determining the path of their future life, barring any external support, such as family or other influences. Gu Tian was born into a family of powerful beast tamers. Both his parents are highly respected beast tamers, and his grandfather is considered a living legend, which set a seemingly smooth path for Gu Tian's life from the start. In this world, beast tamers are categorized by levels. Each level allows a tamer to form a contract with only one beast per level unless they possess a talent to increase the number of contracts. The power levels are as follows Black Iron Bronze Silver Gold Platinum Emerald Diamond King Epic Emperor Each power level is further divided into four sub-levels: Low, Mid, High, and Supreme. A tamer's level corresponds to the highest level of their contracted beast. For instance, a Platinum-level beast tamer with a Low Platinum beast as their strongest contract will also be Low Platinum. Beasts have a potential rank indicating how far they can evolve, mirroring the levels of tamers: Black Iron, Bronze, Silver… up to Emperor.

The slick presentation and high returns drew me in, so I invested $2,500, focusing on Stellar, which showed potential. Within weeks, my balance grew to $3,400, and I decided to invest $18,000 more, diversifying into Ethereum, Ripple, and Chainlink.

Void: Echoes of Synopsis Beyond the limits of comprehensible reality, amidst the nameless void, something was born—or perhaps, it awakened. It had no beginning, no past, and no name. It was merely emptiness given form, different from the darkness from which it emerged. Without memories, without purpose, it wandered through dimensions eroded by time. Worlds long destroyed, beings struggling against oblivion, and ancient entities who claimed themselves as gods—all became part of this journey. Yet, one question continued to gnaw at its existence: What am I? As cosmic factions began to sense its presence—from the rulers of the mortal realms, the Archons of the Astral Domain, to the supreme entities that governed the very laws of reality—an ancient conflict long dormant began to stir once more. Those who worshipped the void saw it as a harbinger. Those who feared it saw it as a threat. And those who understood its existence began plotting something far more dangerous. Yet, for Heze—the name it eventually chose—none of it mattered. It did not care for war, power, or the destruction of worlds. It sought only one thing: the answer. But as it drew closer to the truth, it realized something terrifying. That perhaps, there was no answer that could be comprehended. And worse… perhaps it was the answer itself.

A girl named Karin accidentally gets involved in a murder case at her school. It all started when she accidentally found the body of the school janitor behind the warehouse. This piqued her curiosity about what had happened. She still clearly remembers the blood pooling, turning the grass red. The body lay sprawled with several stab wounds. The corpse looked like a small animal, helpless before its predator, dead just like that. Before discovering the body, she crossed paths with a man. A tall man with a mask and dark sunglasses covering his face. The man also wore a hat to cover his hair. His clothes appeared to be layered, and he carried a large bag that seemed very heavy. However, there was something the man could not hide. The clear scent of blood emanating from his body. Karin had a sharp sense of smell and she was certain the odor she detected was blood. Chaos erupted in the school environment. People started forming their own opinions. Karin was the one most affected. She was often questioned about the body she found. People kept asking her to recount the story. At that moment, a new teacher arrived, diverting the attention of the school community.

The teacher also had a blacklist that he showed to his students. He said the book was a record for the naughty children. If their offenses exceeded three times, those naughty ones would be punished. That's when the next murder began.
