Inuyasha Kagura

Hougu Wars

Elevator Pitch: This is a story about what are Dragon Balls coming down into a society inhabited by humans and demons (Fairies, Youkai, etc.) and various groups clashing over them to vie for power and influence. On top of being a wish-granting device collectively, what if these “Dragon Balls” are distinct magical artifacts, each with serious power that could tip the scales balance, even in regional politics? Follow the story of several protagonists dealing with different sides of a Hougu War to come! Synopsis: In a post pole shift world, divinely-powered artifacts known as “Hougu” had been traversing dimensions, appearing in the material world and enticing many to seek them for making tall fortunes, attaining great powers, building fame, and so on. As Kamui STAR had been ravaged with seeming civil wars—dubbed Hougu Wars—cyclically occurring every few decades, all in pursuit of these magical treasures by all sorts of groups, certain characters grapple with their presence, one of them coming across a sentient sword claiming to be a Sacred Hougu. The Wars would soon begin and they’d find themselves unable to keep their distance, choosing sides for better or worse. This is a TTRPG turned novel featuring 7 protagonists, with the 8th to come in Act 2, using the system of Tokyo NOVA. Characters will be shown interacting with the bizarre “megaplex” they call Kamui STAR, the capital megalopolis of a country boasting a mesh of various ethnic groups, but mostly Japanese and Russians. Instead of forming a party of their own, the protagonists would each take the side of a group in the upcoming Hougu Wars. ______________________ Note: Like most of my works, this is a slow-paced series that takes its sweet time setting things up. First seven chapters shift from one protagonist to another, and the chapters take place roughly chronologically. Protagonists: 1. Yuki: a young urchin who is a caretaker of children by day and an Onmyouji by night. 2. Exelica: an amnesiac woman from space sent on a secret mission. 3. Kagura–Hotaru: a high school girl who takes up a sword thinking someone had dropped it, only to learn she had picked up one of the Seven Hougu. 4. Lev: a cold assassin for hire masquerading as an arms shopkeeper. 5. Saya: a dorky spy of Tara Clan who happens to be an art student (despite never going to any art class). 6. Anastasia: a Hanyou hired as a hacker and hunter who struggles to find her place in the Western Ward, a place inhabited by mages and Ayakashi. 7. Hisaki: a craftsman obsessed with forging his own Hougu, joining with a powerful Ayakashi clan to further his aim. Schedule: 1 Chapter will be posted every Friday, roughly 3 PM (UTC+6). This is also posted on: AO3, ScribbleHub, Royal Road and Wattpad. Cover image is drawn by a friend known as monkoumon. It features Exelica.

SAGANA of Maharlika Islands

"Why are you doing this to me, Aryanna? Did I do something wrong?" SAGANA weakly asked as she looked up at her best friend's vicious eyes. "Why?! You are asking me why?!" Aryanna chinned her up as their eyes met. Sagana was stunned to see the hatred inside Aryanna's eyes as if saying that it is better for her to die. Aryanna forcefully pinched Sagana's chin as she recalled the indifferent eyes of Santo Family when looking at her... as if she's an outsider- No. She's indeed an outsider. Aryanna narrowed her eyes then put her hands on Sagana's neck and was ready to strangle her to death. "Sagana Del Mundo- No, it should be Sagana Santo" Aryanna started strangling Sagana's neck. "W-What... are you.... talking about?" Sagana's face turned red as she tried freeing herself from Aryanna's clutches. "Sagana.. Oh! Sagana..." Aryanna evilly called out Sagana's names. Sagana felt the clutch tightening. "I... I understand. Please let me understand" Sagana started crying. She treated Aryanna as a sister because they were best friends since Junior High but Aryanna suddenly changed when their Senior High School times started. "Fine. You are about to die anyway" Aryanna's eyes turned red while staring straight at Sagana. Sagana was shocked to see the changes of Aryanna's eyes. Next, Sagana felt a warmth energy circulating inside her as if exploring every meridians of her body. After that, Sagana's eyes felt pain in her eyes so she closed her eyes and restrained herself to groan because of pain. "Do you feel it, Sagana?" Aryanna further tightened her hands on Sagana's neck. Sagana turned blue and couldn't breathe. She opened her eyes and everything in her sight became clear and bright. She saw different colors of energy emitting out of the environment. However, the red and black energy that surrounding Aryanna made her horrified. Aryanna's body emitted a stronger hatred towards her that made her uncomfortable and unable to breathe, even if Aryanna was not strangling her now - the outcome didn't mean different. Aryanna's energy was enough to directly kill her. However, her pure white energy prevented the black energy to invade her body and consciousness. It was also the reason why Aryanna must kill her with hands. "Sagana, you are the biological daughter/sister of Santo Family. They are looking at their biological daughter's whereabout right now after they have known about the exchanged 25 years ago" Aryanna finally revealed a shocking news to Sagana. However, Sagana only heard her words that she's the biological daughter of Santo Family because her consciousness was cut off. She died on the hands of her best friend. "Aryanna, May GOD curse your life forever" she thought inside as she couldn't no longer responds to Aryanna. When she woke up, she found herself that she went back in time ten years ago before Aryanna found out about their identity exchanged incident.

What I mean is, Sagana is the reincarnation of Saman but she's not entirely Saman. Just like the situation of Kikyo and Kagome in the anime Inuyasha. Also, this is a spoiler. There will be more Supreme Beings who will claimed that Sagana has something related to their bloodlines. -----------

Bloodstained Chronicles: Kagura

Before He was renowned as the War God he was called The Unstoppable Sword Saint, before that he was a mortal who pursued knowledge to great lengths no matter the cost. He has lived two lifetimes both mired in sin and melancholy. He was exhausted. More so than most. Thinking that he has reached the pinnacle, but he was a mere ant in the face of true power. Beings birthed from the primordial chaos far more ancient than anyone, far more brutal and erratic, has laid waste through countless worlds, even his own. As he lay dying, he remembered his sacrifices and regretted everything. If I was given another chance to redo all of it again... I wonder, would I be able to attain a semblace of happiness and contentment? or will I once more be knee deep and entrenched in blood? --------------------------------- Hi Everyone this is the reboot of Trailblazing Harem god in the Human realm. I was planning on rebooting it ages ago. I just didnt find the time coz of covid and life in general. The beginning wasn't planned properly and became quite messy for my liking. Anyways the genre will still stay the same. It's nothing too serious so don't take whatever direction this book leans too seriously. It's more comedy/parody centric than anything. Although it's not like it won't have any serious moments to sit back and relax. BTW the Cover art aint mine... If you want the cover taken down I'll gladly comply I just need a clickbaity cover hehe.
