At a young age, Rakna Xiorra had experienced horrors and blood in order to reach peace with himself. Yet, he was never complete. There was hunger in his soul which he could never understand. But as he found himself caught in the nets of a thoughtless entity so aptly called a System, he marched forward. And that first battle, ending with his hands and teeth gouging the heart of a Nine-Tailed Wolf, kickstarted his journey on a path that would finally grant him purpose. --- Volume 1 - Seed: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5KXGPD8 --- Update Schedule: I don't even know anymore.

Narrated by yours truly, Serpentine. Alright, listen up, fellow fourth-wall enthusiasts and meta-maniacs, because this isn't just any story—this is the story. A story of grit, chaos, betrayal, revolution, and crowdfunding. This is the tale of a once-mighty (and devilishly handsome) Ascended Demon – you guessed it, me – who dared to defy the universe itself to create something greater than Fate: an anime. Now, you might be wondering, “But Serpentine, aren’t you supposed to be a rogue cosmic entity tangled up in an interdimensional tournament orchestrated by the Primordials to achieve universal balance?” To which I’d say, “Yes. But have you seen the budget Primordials allocate to logistics? Absolutely criminal. Somebody had to step in and make sure the real priorities – like making a quality Wheel of Faith anime animated by Ufotable – got the attention they deserved.” The Kickstarter Chronicles isn’t just a book. It’s a revolution. It’s a declaration. It’s a movement (patent pending). Over 200 chaotic, hilarious, and occasionally heartfelt chapters, I’ll be gathering allies, facing impossible odds, and navigating the wild world of interdimensional politics. And all the while, I’ll be rallying you – yes, you, reader! –to support The Wheel of Faith campaign, the very foundation of this sprawling, multiverse-spanning saga. Want to meet canon characters from every corner of the Wheel? They're here. Want to see fan-submitted fighters duke it out with insane powers? Possibly. Want to join the chaos yourself? Well, you can! Every like, share, and dollar raised adds fuel to this cosmic fire. And if you're broke? No sweat. Spread the word. Join the Discord. Become part of the legacy. This isn’t just a book you read. It’s a campaign you live. It’s about all of us coming together to build something extraordinary – while I dodge death beams, manage questionable alliances, and try not to completely unravel the fabric of the multiverse. Again. And don’t worry. No spoilers here. But let’s just say, by the end of this story, you’ll be (hopefully) laughing, crying, and maybe even reaching for your wallet. So what are you waiting for? Join the Wheel of Faith campaign today! --- Oh hey, I'm on Royal Road now. Follow [The Serpentine] on Royal Road for more!

Allison Fae is the new kid to Nasseu Middle School, and already she's got kids dying left and right! Okay, just left. One half of conjoined twins Rosemary and Josephine Higgins is the victim of an awful bashing-to-the-head that kids are getting so mixed up with today. A dark force takes intrigue in the itty-bitty human conflict that is definitely in no way, shape, or form related to the murder of that rich kid a few months before the start of school. The force, named Issachar preserves the scene of the crime perfectly so an investigation can be properly maintained with no silly distractions from the outside like 'police' or 'lawyers'. "Solve the murder, escape the darkness!" Issachar tells the children, and thus kickstarts an investigation into the darkest truths and lies about the kids at Nasseu Middle School. Trigger Warnings: Violence, Murder, Sexual Assault, Rape, Torture

Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel. Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of? The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters. There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak. So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain? So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.

"Do you think you can replace me as the CEO of this company? That's a joke! I built this business from the ground up, and I won't let some inexperienced upstart take it away from me!" Akito Yamamura had always been determined to succeed in the world of martial arts, but his humble beginnings meant that he had to work twice as hard as others to make his dreams a reality. However, when he discovered Wong Corp, a unique workplace unlike any other, Akito found a way to combine his love for combat with his need for a steady income. The company offered "The Pit," a weekly martial arts competition where fighters could showcase their skills and win prizes. But the stakes were high, and the competition was fierce, with the winner moving up the ranks to eventually face off against the company's CEO, Jiro Kim. However, Jiro didn't take kindly to newcomers, and Akito soon found himself facing off against the powerful CEO, who was determined to maintain his hold over the company. Despite the challenges, Akito refused to give up, and he continued to train hard every Friday to prepare for the weekly competitions. And while his ultimate goal was to defeat Jiro and take his place as the CEO, the road ahead was filled with obstacles and uncertainties. Would Akito be able to rise to the challenge and achieve his dreams, or would Jiro's power prove too great to overcome? Only time would tell.

# FIGUREHEAD # HEARTWARMING # LUCKYSTAR # INDEPENDENT Zhao Zhitong was still in kindergarten when she and her parents transmigrated. Soon after arriving in the new world, they were immediately exiled by her ruthless step-grandmother. Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were left staring worriedly at the two cabbages their family was left with.

Just as the title suggests a man is transmigrated into the body of a young teen named Billy Bass in the Marvel universe but instead of becoming a Avatar of SHAZAM he is granted all of SHAZAMs powers due to the ancient SHAZAM being injured and dying. He will then have to take up the mantle to protect the source of all magic across the multiverse. He will be tossed to multiple universes to either repair magic in that universe or to kickstart magic back into that universe. MC will be OP in most universes due to his direct connection to the Rock of Eternity. MC will start in MCU/X-men Universe and move towards many different universes such as Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, DC Cinematic Universe, Matrix as well as other movie and TV universes, not in exact order but he will visit some longer than others due to power scaling. This is my first time writing and its just for fun so I hope to improve my writing skills while giving readers entertainment to their boredom. I own nothing except my own characters. All other material is owned by its creators. #Overpowered #Marvel #DC #Game of Thrones #Wish Fulfillment #Kingdom Building #Harry Potter #Superpower #Magic If you want to support me and my work you can donate on cash app $Sykocyrus

My name is Keri Pryde, and I hope you don't think any less of me... Keri Pryde, a young 19 year old former boxer gets more than she bargained for after joining the Rachelle Institute Sorority house where she's forced to obey any order given to her by her seniors, no matter what! To refuse is to face expulsion, and with her career ruined after an unfortunate encounter with the nightmarish creatures known as skitters, that simply isn't an option. Little by little she's forced to face degradation and humiliation, until discovering the true meaning of love, romance, and the joys of submission. * This is a re-telling of my earlier work 'Prydes Submission' which is also available on Scribblehub. In this version I will be updating a lot of chapters, adding new scenes, and revisiting the characters so that one day I may be able to publish this work. My ultimate goal is to launch this on Kickstarter when it's fully complete, with some fun art illustrations added as well. Thank you so much for taking the time to read it, and I would greatly appreciate any notes or feedback. *Ultimately this is a strong-to-weak character kind of story, where the main character goes from being a strong self-confident person to a submissive character. *Will include dubious consent, adult situation, rough encounters, impregnation, and potentially slimes and tentacles ;)

This story is about finding a normal love, raising a normal family, and finding a place in an insanely abnormal world of magic. "Hi! I am like a transmigrator… nice, right? Oh, don’t envy me. You see, I got transmigrated into a novel I know. What is the title again? Ah~! The novel [Hero Ender] which takes place in the [Academy] and blah... blah... blah... All of them are kind of unnecessary to my story so let's skip that." So a question first to kickstart our relationship/s, the reader (you), the author, and me- Do you know what the first thing I did after my transmigration? That's rhetorical, by the way. The answer is... I FREAKING RAN AWAY FROM THE PLOT! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! So if you're reading this, then I don't know! I guess just have fun and I hope you see what you are looking for in my story! Roughly, the plot is almost like this: After a Timeskip of ten decades’ worth when I know the epilogue should have long ended, and the credit score has rolled, I finally decide to return to civilization. I wonder what’s waiting for me at home. My name by the way is… Randel Eir Dromastus and I am like a side character noble in the backwaters territory. Nice, right!? "To slow living it is!! FORWARD!" I yell my ambition to the fourth wall imagining myself as some smartass protagonist. But oh no, this here is not protagonist material at all! (I hope.) #Misunderstanding #Overpowered #Side Character #SLightly Mentally Sick Protagonist #Very Rare Footage of Fourth Wall Breaks I swear #Family Bonding #Romance #Give Me Stones

Zane Greyhound is an excellent street dancer, winning tons of competitions enough to gain the attention of popular internet platforms that kickstarted his career into becoming an idol that touched the hearts of his fans, wherever he went. The young master Zephyr, on the other hand, is a clumsy, dim-witted, and easily manipulated half-blood fool who nearly caused the demise of the Noble House Byron if not for the quick wit of the Saintess and the clever younger brother Alexander saving their Duchy's reputation and justly punishing Zephyr. No one would think they're the same person. But Zane remembers being Zephyr. And now, Zephyr remembers being Zane-who-remembered-being-Zephyr. Unsurprisingly, this changes a lot.

Allen Bright was almost the same as every normal person. He went to high-school and had just started to attend college when he was suddenly struck with the diagnosis of a rare genetic disease. Fatal insomnia led to the death of Allen. However, as if to mock him, he was reincarnated into a world where magic, cultivation, and profound abilities are everywhere with one simple catch. He has a system. One that allows him to enter his dreams or others and take out what he finds with the correct requirements fulfilled. "From death by insomnia, to sleeping for strength. How ironic.." Allen muttered with a sigh, looking around him at his new home and wishing he could return one day to his family. Follow Allen on his story. From sleepless nights, to thrilling mornings. ---------- This idea randomly came to me on a sleepless night myself, and I thought it would be fun to write and bring attention to a incredibly rare illness, fatal insomnia. This isn't made up whatsoever, and I found it to be a way to kickstart this story. If you or someone you know shows symptoms of insomnia, or worse, the fatal variant of it, I hope this helps see some of those signs at the beginning, at least. There is no cure for fatal insomnia, but there is medication to help with some of its effects. I do hope, however, you enjoy this story as I start to write it on my own insomnia filled night, and to everyone else with a fairly normal sleep schedule, how's the daylight? I sleep through a good portion whenever I do find myself sleeping so I wanted to ask. To you, fellow authors, readers, and average book enjoyers, I wish you happy reading, a good night's sleep, as well as hope your creativity continues to flow. Have a good day/night, my friends!
