"I strengthened my body to run there. I grabbed the brush, and the blood on my hand soaked it. But I didn't care about that's all. I started drawing a summoning circle on the altar of the sun temple. My blood dripped between my drawings. And what is this... Is my tears also dripping? Please... hold on... hold on to all this, Elena... I begged to my weary body. My circle was finished and I knelt in front of it and began to chant my spell. "O deus totius lucis, da mihi gloriam tuam! Nuntium mitte ut populum tuum salvet!" (Oh god of all light, give me your glory! Send a messenger to save your people!) The blood flowed more rapidly in my hand, soaking my body. But I didn't care about all that. I have to hold on... I must! "Pandite portas mundi... Venite heroes... Portas Heroum!!!" (Open the gates of the world... Come heroes... Gate of Heroes!!!) Then the light came, shining very brightly, giving me a glimmer of hope. And there appeared a figure of a man in clothes like a blanket wrapped around his body. He was holding a sword in his hand. Hope... a hope has arrived!"

Haruki didn't know who he was, where he came from, or for what purpose he existed. For three years, he had lived on instinct, scraping by with the rudimentary sword skills he'd gained through life-and-death encounters, eking out a meager existence. He had long resigned himself to the belief that he would muddle through life until his luck ran out and death finally claimed him. That was, until he met the general—clad in gleaming silver and blue armor—cutting through enemies with the grace and ease of someone sipping tea at a garden party. Haruki couldn't look away. By the time Haruki realized just how deep the pit he had fallen into, he was already utterly, hopelessly, and foolishly in love with Lanling. But things weren’t as simple as exchanging deep feelings—especially when you’re repeatedly robbed of your memories, and there’s the looming risk of losing the ability to even create new ones with the person you hold dear. In the end, will Haruki be able to remember and keep his precious memories? And Lanling—can he break free from the curse that is constantly testing his love for Haruki? ~#~#~#~#~#~ Bright, Straightforward, but easily teased gong (Haruki) x Calm, Mysterious and slightly black-bellied shou (Lanling) #GongProtagonist #PowerBottom #FatedLovers The pair in the past had a different dynamic o.o —2 chs/day —This a tragic love story with a HE. ~#~#~#~#~#~ Disclaimer: Everything written is fictional. If I somehow wrote that fire is cold, it's probably true in that world. I try to be realistic in some aspects but please don't expect ultra realism ^_^ —Part of [Qiyuan Series]—

I hunted beasts that were deemed immortal, ripping off their immortal status. I loathed them for they destroyed my home. My anger for them, in one word, immeasurable. Yet look at me, what have I become… I did not need a mirror to realize that I had turned into a werewolf, with the curse of immortality. I tried, again and again, to kill myself, yet it was futile. But hey, wait, I am a beast now. Can’t I crawl in and kill other beasts in this disguise? Haha, foolish Vampire God, this curse is a curse to your entire race, for now, I will obliterate everyone! ..... This is a Book about Gray Waterfell. After living as a human and climbing through pain to Hunt down the Vampire God, he was forced into reincarnation by their earth shattering battle. Naturally, he swore to get his revenge by killing every supernatural creature in the world. But Fate was wicked to him, his new family he was born into was a supernatural family, a Werewolf family. A family that loved him more than the human race he fought for ever did. After Human invasion and massacre took treasure he never had in his previous life, his blade now stare in the confusion of his Vengeance. Supernaturals must be killed, but the pain of losing one's love, must be AVENGED... Author's Note: I noticed that no one really captures the true state of confusion and a sense of loss that comes with getting reborn. For most, the protagonist is just flushed into battle. But this Mc is different, the first 80 chapters allows you to understand why he was forced unto his predicament and the reason for the goals and ambitions he develops. I'll be fair, it's a painful read, but bear through it. Rise to the top is incredible, and once its starts, only blood flows till the end....

"Stay still." He order. "Foolish girl! You think you can get a free pass from here through death." He said in a mocking tone. In her defense, she said, "I was only trying to save you." "Of course, how could I forget? You are my heroine, but isn’t the heroine supposed to be saving me while I fall, and instead you go to hug death." Sarcasm filled in his words, which didn’t go unnoticed as she slightly glared at him. Though his words were simple, it held something more to it than what it actually seemed. Ignoring the glare, he continued, "At least you could have just knocked it off my hands if you were so persistent on being the hero. But it's not like I wasn’t aware." "What do you mean?" she inquired, her face perplexed. Pointing to his eyes for emphasis. "Nothing ever misses these eyes. I knew it was poisoned, but I was still going to drink it; it couldn't hurt me." a proud smile on his face. A surprised expression took over her face before she said, "You never know what new poison has been created to harm you." His lips curled up. "Are you offering yourself as the poison?

Welcome to the kingdom of Blundertopia, where logic takes a vacation and chaos reigns supreme! Meet Sir Wrongalot, a clumsy knight armed with a bent pool noodle and an unshakable (though completely unwarranted) sense of confidence. Alongside his trusty goat Buttercup—who wears a mushroom as a hat—and a band of equally ridiculous misfits, Sir Wrongalot embarks on quests so absurd, even the gods are confused. From stealing royal biscuits to orchestrating a British teaparty under siege by giant pigeons, no task is too foolish for this ragtag crew. With each chapter more hilariously nonsensical than the last, Stupid will have you laughing, groaning, and questioning how such a book even exists. If you’re ready for a story filled with exploding teapots, biscuit battles, and a goat that may or may not be the true hero, then grab a bo’ele of woter and dive into the stupidity. Because sometimes, life’s greatest adventures are also its dumbest. Warning: This book contains excessive silliness, questionable logic, and one very smug goat. Proceed with caution (and snacks).

He slowly became aware of his surroundings, the relentless hunger that once clouded his mind starting to lift, allowing clarity to settle in. He had devoured the hero, consumed his essence, his memories, his very soul. Now, fragments of a life that wasn’t his filled his mind. Once, he had been Xorathul, an eldritch god of unimaginable power, feared across worlds. But now? Now, he was just a shadow of that being a voidling, pulled from his realm by foolish cultists and bound to this mortal plane. His only path to reclaim what he had lost, to once again stand at the pinnacle of power, was to consume. To devour. That was his only purpose, the one constant he had known... until he consumed the Hero. Something changed. The memories, the emotions, the humanity it all felt foreign, yet it was creeping into his very core. For the first time, the endless hunger faded. And for the first time, Xorathul or whatever he was now felt something beyond the need to consume. Something almost... human.

When the heir to a vast and powerful conglomerate finds himself in the role of a humble, live-in son-in-law, his every action seems baffling, even laughable. Whispers follow him, people wondering, "Why does he act without fear? How does a man with no apparent wealth or influence walk so confidently in a world where hierarchy is everything, and the poor bow to the whims of the rich?" But for those bold—or foolish—enough to challenge him, the truth soon becomes clear: they've gravely underestimated him.

As the powerful Lockwood family plots and schemes, they’re unaware of the storm that’s about to engulf them. And at the center of it all is a man they thought they could ignore—a man who might just be their downfall. In this world of betrayal, ambition, and hidden strength, will he finally reveal who he truly is, or will he let them continue to underestimate him... until it’s too late?

"Through the ages, I was the shadow that ruled from the darkness, the unseen hand that restored balance whenever fools dared to disrupt what was never theirs. I was never a savior, nor did I act out of mercy or love for this world. I acted because their existence was nothing but a disturbance… because this world was never theirs to take! > And now, as we stand at the edge of annihilation—where time shatters, laws crumble, and ancient beasts rise from their slumber—do I sit idly and watch the end devour everything? Or do I seize this moment and reshape the end to suit my will? > Who am I? A foolish question, but I’ll indulge it, if only to hear the echo of my name shatter the cosmos itself. Hahahahaha... I am the Cursed Immortal!"
