Ball Is Life System

This...is 'Ball Is Life System' - Where every shot is a deal with destiny. In the high-stakes world of elite youth basketball, Trace "T-Mac" LaRose was destined for greatness. Son of a local legend, blessed with supernatural talent, he was the next big thing...until a catastrophic injury shattered his knee and his dreams in one fatal moment. Two years later, washed up and forgotten, Trace is offered a deal that defies reality: a chance to rewrite his history, to return to that pivotal moment in time with all the knowledge he has now...But this gift comes with a price, and a choice that will test his very soul. As Trace relives his rise to basketball stardom, he discovers he's caught between two mysterious, cosmic forces: Mal (The masculine Malevolent System), Offering immediate power-ups and skill enhancements that push the limits of human ability, but at a terrible cost to Trace's life force. And... Bene (The feminine Benevolent System), Providing subtle, long-term improvements that nurture not just Trace's game, but his character and relationships. With every dribble, every shot, every game-changing decision, Trace must balance his desperate desire for a dream deferred...success against the price of achieving it. Will he succumb to the allure of quick fixes and instant gratification? Or will he find the strength to build a legacy that transcends personal and professional glory? As the clock ticks down on his second chance, Trace faces opponents both on and off the court: -Rivals gunning for his position -Scouts and agents tempting him with promises of fame and fortune -The weight of his family's expectations and his own haunting memories -And most dangerously, the seductive whisper of the Malevolent System, always ready to offer one more boost, one more edge – for just another little slice of his soul. In a game where every choice could be the difference between legendary status and forgotten potential, Trace must answer the ultimate question: What would you sacrifice for your dreams? "Ball Is Life System" is a pulse-pounding sports drama with a supernatural twist, a tale of ambition, redemption, and the true meaning of victory. Where every crossover could cross timelines, and every slam dunk could be a deal with destiny...for better or worse. Get ready to enter a world where the real game begins when the final buzzer sounds...and where second chances come with a price tag that might just cost Trace everything.

Suffering of the Starved

Once, all he desired was to be acknowledged by his village— To hear his name spoken with pride, not pity. To be praised by his family for more than being quiet and obedient. To be distinguished amongst his siblings, to stand apart in a way that mattered. To be seen by his parents, truly seen—not as an obligation, but as a son worthy of love. Karon was a boy of small ambitions and deep wounds. He did not dream of thrones or glory, only of warmth. Of laughter at a dinner table. Of a father’s nod. Of a mother’s arms. Of belonging. But none of it came. They called his older brother a warrior, his younger sister a prodigy. Karon, they did not call at all. Now, the village is ash. His siblings lie scattered across the broken world, devoured by beasts or conscripted into distant wars. His parents, faces once so distant and unreachable, are now nothing but bones beneath a fallen roof. And Karon—Karon is alone. Not just in body, but in purpose. There is no one left to see him. No dream left to chase. No story left to shape. Once he hungered for recognition. Now, he hungers only for survival. In this world of rotting kingdoms and endless war, where monsters wear both fur and armor, Karon’s name has no meaning. No place. He scavenges ruins, sleeps in hollow trees, and counts the days by the sound of distant screams. His fingers are cracked from clawing through graves for food. His shadow grows long and sharp. His eyes reflect less of the boy he was, and more of the thing he’s becoming. He does not know where he is going. He only knows that something inside him still lives— A hunger deeper than starvation. A hollow that no meat can fill. Not anymore. Perhaps one day, they will speak of Karon again. Not as a son. Not as a brother. But as a creature that walks through the ruins, feeding on what remains of hope.

What's happening? Why is it happening? How is it happening?

It's a draft of my web novel. I'm afraid I'll become inconsistent if I saved only on my pc. So, I'm uploading it here for accountability. So, Bear with the rough format for the next 100 chapters. I'll refine it after reaching 100 chapters while uploading it once a week. The goals are:- • Maintaining Consistency Over Perfectionism. • Learning about this field (as it's my first time writing my own web novel.) • Enjoying the thrill of creating a draft without worrying about any sort of refinement. Cautions:- • It can be overwhelming with the fast pacing. • It's supposed to be a chaos - comedy - meta - realistic type of genre. (It's one of its kind, I know. That's the goal.) • Typos. I'll do my bare minimum to correct typos. But, I don't think I'll be focusing that much of editing right now... • A future where I may just stop without any warning (I'd hate to add this one, but who knows if I'd still be alive the next day...) Theme:- It's supposed to be a writer becoming too self aware that his characters are out of his control, from the start. The story is supposed to unfold right before the eyes as now the writer do not have any way of knowing what's happening and why and how it's happening? Warnings (again):- • I'd hate to say it again, but the pacing is fast at start... I'll try to control it as I learn how to... • The typos are too obvious. I'll refine it as much as I can, but I feel like I'm losing my voice and personality in the words, if I correct it too much... Request:- Kindly Review and Comment. I might require your genuine feedback. ---- That's all. Enjoy The Ride!
