The Dream Boy Is A Realist

What Is A Realistic MMORPG Isekai?!

Arsol (Username: Hakkun) is your average eighteen-year-old tech nerd; he reads cliche light novels, plays video games (way too many), studies for exams, and he programs! Does he have friends? A social life, maybe? Nah, he’s an anti-social whose inner monologues revolve around how humans suck. He’s the type who blames the world for his problems: edgy, angsty, emo— thinks he’s smarter than everyone and has answers for the world’s crisis. Gotta give it to him, though, he a young talent at whatever he does. His skills for programming, gaming (FPS) as well as studying makes up for the fact that he’s an arse. So much so, that he stops going to school altogether and locks himself in his room, he’d rather be with his computer. Because Arsol is on a mission! He’s been collaborating with online strangers who are all equally gamers and computer nerds, who understand him, and who all have this idea to make this steampunk/dieselpunk game called ‘Hero of Emberstein.’ Now, Arsol won’t lie, he’s obsessed. Being one of the co-creators, he finds himself adding features and details he’d want in an MMORPG. The only thing he dislikes is the customizable character features; he never understands such a personalized activity. He prefers Gacha. After 3 years, the game is finally available for beta testing, his 7 online co-creators are all ready to click the play button. But little does Arsol know, he would for real be in the game, like in person, like ISEKAI-ed, like he could die, for real for real. What's worse is, everyone who clicked the play button for the beta test, has also been Isekaied. So like, maybe over a thousand or more? Arsol thinks it’s his fault innocent players are getting transmigrated into HIS game, because he remembers that he removed the 'EXIT' button as a harmless malfunctioning prank-- turned deadly?! Oops. Journey along with Arsol as he hides his identity as the creator, the culprit, and the administrator. And that time he finds out his 6 online friends are all here as well, but where?! Who?! UGH, THIS IS WHY HE HATES CUSTOMIZABLE CHARACTERS! ( I DO, IN FACT, OWN THE COVER )

The Heavenly Miss Xiulan (Who Is Most Definitely Not a Boy)

In the 3,476th year of the Celestial Calendar, the Heavenly Emperor—whose divinity was rivaled only by his boredom—rewrote the Immortal Code of Gender Assignments during a particularly uneventful spring. According to Clause 89, Subsection Moonlight, Paragraph Absolutely-Not-Optional, any being born with an overwhelmingly high-yin spiritual constitution could only, by universal decree, be classified as female. It was simple. Efficient. Divine. Except… someone made a mistake. A mortal child was born deep within the darkest stretch of the Eternal Spirit Forest, surrounded by mist, mystery, and mushrooms that sang lullabies. He was bright-eyed, soft-voiced, high-yin… and very, very male. The thunder cracked the day he laughed. A white wolf howled. A snake offered him venom like warm milk. The trees whispered ancient songs. And the heavens? Well, they began preparing lightning bolts on standby—just in case someone down there got too clever and said something like: “Wait… is that a boy?” Boom. Thus began the most unusual cultivation tale in ten thousand realms. A tale of a child raised by beasts, mistaken for a goddess, blessed with yin that could stop hearts, and cursed with thunder that would smite anyone who dared question the Heavenly Code. This is the story of Xiulan. Or as the forest calls him: “Our beautiful, powerful, emotionally unstable daughter.” Or as heaven calls him: “ERROR 404: Gender Not Found.”

Because the Stable Boy is Weird

She dies on her 27th birthday. Every. Single. Time. Different world, different rules, different face — same damn fate. And the one thing all her tragic little lifespans have in common? She’s always married when she dies. So this time, she has a revolutionary idea: Stay single. Live. Born into a stiff, judgmental medieval kingdom, where magic is banned for commoners (but hoarded by royalty), she’s now 25, nobly bred, politically poised, and pretending to aim for the crown prince. (Step one of the plan: fake it till you almost make it, then don’t.) Her first fiancé? Slipped off a cliff. (Oops.) Second? Died in a war. (Double oops.) Third? The current prince? Terrified of women. (Chef’s kiss.) All according to plan and nobody suspects a thing. Until the new stable boy shows up. He picks up her handkerchief like some storybook romantic, looks her dead in the eye, and says, “Good evening, Miss Witch,” before launching into a cryptic poem about stars and walking away like he didn’t just ruin her life. Now she’s spiraling. Because she doesn't have a hint of magic (at least this time), and he must definitely know something he shouldn't. Between suspicious nobles, nosy court mages, and a weirdly poetic stable boy who knows too much and blinks like a baby deer, she has to keep her cool, keep her mask, and most importantly — keep her single status intact. And then — because of course — it turns out the stable boy isn’t just some weird dreamer. He’s a magical genius. Possibly cursed. Definitely unhinged. And he might be the key to breaking her cycle…

A Dream called You

What would you do if you got a second chance at life... but only in your dreams? Yuuma Kisaragi is invisible. At nineteen, he's already a college dropout, a disappointment to his mother, and a ghost in his own life. No friends, no future, no hope—just endless days of watching other people live the life he'll never have. Until he dreams. In that dream, he wakes up in a parallel Japan where everything feels familiar yet impossible. Cherry blossoms bloom out of season, the sky holds mysteries he can't explain, and most importantly—**people can see him.** A mysterious silver bracelet appears on his wrist, pulsing with an energy he doesn't understand. It seems to respond to his emotions, but what does it want? And why does it feel like it's... counting something? --- Enter Airi Minazuki—the girl everyone loves to hate. She's stunning, brilliant, and completely unpredictable. One moment she's laughing like sunshine, the next she's cold as winter rain. Her classmates call her fake, unstable, attention-seeking. But Yuuma sees something else in her eyes—a longing he recognizes all too well. Their connection is instant. Electric. Impossible to ignore. For the first time in his life, Yuuma matters to someone. He makes friends who feel like family. He discovers laughter, purpose, and something he never dared hope for. But in a world born from dreams, nothing is ever as simple as it seems. --- As Yuuma builds the life he's always wanted, questions begin to haunt him: Why does this world feel so real when he knows it's not? What happens when the bracelet stops glowing? And why does Airi sometimes look at him like she's seeing a ghost? Some dreams are too beautiful to be just fantasy. Some connections are too deep to be coincidence. And some love stories... transcend reality itself. --- This isn't just another isekai romance. This is about second chances that come with hidden costs. About love that defies explanation. About discovering who you really are in a world that might not exist—and fighting to keep that person when everything falls apart. It's about the magic of human connection, the power of hope, and the question that will haunt you long after you finish reading: If you could live your perfect life in a dream, would you ever want to wake up? --- Join Yuuma as he discovers that the line between dreams and reality isn't as clear as he thought—and that some chances only come once, even if they come twice. A story that will make you question everything you know about love, dreams, and the courage it takes to truly live. When reality gives you nothing, dreams give you everything. But what price are you willing to pay to keep them? [Also Coming soon on Royal Road! https://www.royalroad.com/profile/752633]
