The First Cut A

While rummaging through his attic, a young boy named Evern stumbles upon an old, dusty box with a strange label: THE GAME. Curiosity piqued, he opens it and finds a single DVD inside. The cover art is minimalist, yet captivating, featuring only a glowing symbol. Ethan, an avid gamer, immediately senses something unusual about the game and can't resist the temptation to try it out. Eager to share this mysterious discovery, he calls over his three closest friends—Liam, a competitive gamer; Maya, a quick-witted strategist; and Zoe, a tech-savvy enthusiast. Together, they gather around the TV, pop the DVD into the player, and each grab a game console to choose their characters. The moment they select their avatars, the room is flooded with blinding white light. In an instant, they find themselves sucked into the game world, their bodies transported to a vibrant, pixelated environment. Confused but exhilarated, the group quickly realizes that the game is no ordinary adventure. It feels real—too real. They are now part of a vast, uncharted world filled with strange creatures, enigmatic landscapes, and challenging puzzles. The friends must navigate the first level together, where each decision they make has a direct impact on their survival and progress. As they work together to solve puzzles, battle strange foes, and unlock secrets, they begin to notice something disturbing—this game seems to know things about them, their pasts, their fears, and their desires. As they explore further, they discover that the game isn’t just a challenge—it’s a test, and there’s no guarantee they’ll make it out unscathed. The friends soon realize they can’t trust everyone in the game, as some players seem to have dark motives. They must learn to rely on each other and uncover the truth behind The Game before it’s too late. The first level is only the beginning, and Ethan and his friends are about to find out that what lies beyond is far more dangerous than they could ever imagine. The stakes are high, and the only way to win may require them to sacrifice everything. Themes: Friendship, trust, the unknown, personal growth, the boundary between reality and the virtual world. Tone: Suspenseful, adventurous, with elements of mystery and psychological intrigue, blurring the line between reality and the virtual.

Do you ever imagine there's another world running right beside ours? . . . “Why don’t we put this in?" A woman speaks, her voice smooth, almost affectionate. “Nah, that’s too overpowered. Let’s add something different. Something… darker.” Then, a man’s voice interrupts, firm and unyielding. “Hey! Why don’t we make him a vampire?” The woman’s voice perks up, excited. A chill goes through me. Make what! vampire? Who! Me?! What—what are they talking about? The man lets out a skeptical grunt. “A vampire? Sure, that’s interesting, but it's too OP. Let's add something to balance it.” “Okay, okay,” she says, her tone still light, as though designing some casual new toy. “But let’s change the species—no blood-sucking from humans. It’s been done to death, too cliché right?” Blood-sucking? Humans? My mind spins. Are they actually talking about turning me into… some kind of creature? “Well,” the man chuckles, “there’s plenty else he could prey on in this world, isn’t there? We’ll give him something else to feed on.” The voices continue, completely oblivious to my horror. I lie helpless, only able to listen as they throw around options, shaping me, deciding my fate. My heart—if I even have one—pounds in the emptiness. I can’t see, move, or speak. But in their hands, I’m becoming something, one twisted decision at a time.

In the mystical realm of Eryndor, where magic is the lifeblood of society, young Luth Hxavion, a scion of the prestigious Hxavion noble house, grapples with a debilitating condition known as Mana Invocation Disorder. This rare ailment prevents him from casting spells, rendering him an outcast in a world where magical prowess is revered above all. Despite his deep understanding of magic theory, Luth’s condition leaves him powerless, constantly overshadowed by his peers and the expectations of his lineage. One fateful day, while rummaging through the forgotten remnants of his family’s library, Luth stumbles upon an old, tarnished magic pen. At first glance, it appears to be a faulty relic of no significance. But as he grips the pen, he feels a faint, unfamiliar tingle—a spark of mana. Desperate to harness any semblance of power, Luth begins to experiment with the pen, tracing intricate patterns and symbols with his mana. To his astonishment, these symbols, though foreign and mysterious, manifest as spells. Unlike traditional magic, these symbols hold a raw, unrefined power, capable of feats beyond ordinary spellcasting. With each stroke, Luth pioneers a new form of magic, creating what he dubs "Runes." These arcane symbols become his lifeline, a way to channel his mana and assert his place in the world. As Luth delves deeper into the secrets of rune magic, he uncovers ancient prophecies hinting at a time before magic was formalized, when primordial forces shaped the world. His discovery of rune magic, it seems, is no accident. Luth's journey is intertwined with a greater destiny: to bring balance to Eryndor and restore a lost age of magic.

What do you think might be the driving force behind society? Compassion? Greed? Selfishness? Whatever your answer is, it's irrelevant, because this story is not rooted in reality, but a Universe where the concept of defence is foreign and unheard of... to most, a place where the greatest and most powerful people in the world are literally the most physically powerful, where might makes right, and whoever has the stronger ability is the greater. Meelid is the world's biggest coward, riddled with insecurities, tantalising fears, and the likes, he struggles to survive in this accursedly aggressive society, until one day he is pushed too far and realises, 'hey, why don't I just try to get hurt...less?'.

Ethan Granger, a modern-day man, is suddenly transported into a Victorian-era world. Upon waking, he discovers that he has taken over the body of Elias Darnell, a poor, orphaned teenage boy living in a bleak, impoverished neighborhood. As Ethan grapples with his new life, something far darker and far more powerful emerges within him. He begins to experience strange powers—enhanced strength, speed, and a thirst for blood. At first, he brushes it off as a side effect of his transmigration, but the truth soon becomes undeniable: Ethan is not just any vampire—he is the first vampire, cursed by God Himself as punishment for an ancient, unfathomable sin. Elias Darnell is no ordinary boy; his body is the vessel for a divine punishment that dates back to the beginning of time. Ethan’s transformation is not merely the result of magic or a random accident—it is the curse of the first vampire, and his existence is a cosmic punishment for a sin so great that it defied the laws of both man and God. === NOTE: The story may take some time to introduce Elias' powers. I had planned to create a strong setting first for a good background. I am just starting to write and it may take time to release new chapters but I am trying to get at least 5 new chapters a week.

Putting trust into a stranger is a very risky move, but when you have no other choice, maybe it is not the worst idea out there. Not to mention how if you don't remember anything, it will only makes things a lot worse. But it's all worth it to try and remember what happened that put them into this position.

Born as a Traut, Evelyn's life is one of relentless suffering under the oppressive Federation's rule. Her existence is defined by despair, discrimination, and persecution. Suddenly thrown into the spotlight, Evelyn conceals her origins as she embarks on a mission of revenge. She silently awaits her opportunity to strike and bring down the entire Federation regime. *** IMPORTANT NOTICE: This novel does have a system-power, however it comes a bit later in the chapters (but not that late don't worry) because the beginning is mostly story builiding and character development. This is a primarily action/fantasy novel. However, I’ll be dabbling into other genres like mystery and thriller throughout. Please note the mc is not OP out of the gate, but it is a constant progress. There will not be 24/7 action. There are slower chapters that just focus on story building. (If you are looking for a similar theme but action-heavy please check out my other novel called Danger Outside). I highly recommend if you are looking for a novel that focuses on both storybuilding and quality character developments. I will be uploading 1 chapter every week on Sunday mornings EST time.
