Ascension of the Wealth King

Ethan Ward was a nobody—a broke data clerk in the gritty city of Calverton, Solvara, on the planet Aetheris, scraping by on crumbs while the world kicked him down. Betrayed by bosses, abandoned by friends, and drowning in debt, he was ready to give up—until a freak lightning strike changed everything. Enter the Galactic Ascension System, an alien force that crash-lands into his life, granting him the power to multiply his wealth, unlock futuristic tech, and claim rewards beyond imagination: luxury cars, company shares, and blueprints that could reshape the world. From a measly paycheck exploding tenfold to driving an Astellon Vantage worth six figures, Ethan’s ascent begins with a single task—and a promise of more. But wealth comes with a price. Mysterious figures like the sharp-suited Vincent watch from the shadows, hinting at others who crave the system’s gifts. As Ethan flexes his newfound riches—humbling doubters, outsmarting rivals, and building an empire from nothing—he uncovers a web of secrets tying the system to forces far beyond Aetheris. In a city of glitz and grit, where drones hum above docks and skyscrapers pierce the sky, Ethan’s journey is just starting. Armed with cash, charisma, and cosmic power, he’ll slap down every foe, seize every opportunity, and rise from the ashes of his old life to claim the throne of a Wealth King. But with every reward, the stakes climb higher—and the galaxy’s eyes are watching. Will Ethan conquer Calverton and beyond, or will the system’s true cost drag him back to nothing?

These Babies Are Not Yours, Alpha Axton

[WSA 2025 ENTRY] Male Lead is more than morally grey, twisted, obsessive and possessive. Female Lead, tough, thinks on her feet, can stand up for herself, but still damsel in distress. Enemies to Lovers. Smut? Well, male lead is OBSESSIVE AND POSSESSIVE! Endeavor to read all free chapters before you label it boring! ……… In Cinder Pack, one of the powerful seven packs, abandoned children on the streets are considered less than the pets owned by many households. They live from hand-to-mouth, covered in dirt and used however those from better families deem fit all their life. As a result, many of them die from starvation at a very young age and those with good-looking appearances sell themselves off to better families as slaves in order to live. While a select few resort to stealing food and taking the crumbs that fall off the table of those of noble birth. This is the case for Aurelia Night and her childhood best friend, Lydia Hayes. But on a night she went to find them dinner, she overhears a conversation she shouldn’t have and becomes a target for a ruthless and dangerous Councilam. Left with no choice, she runs into the room of a stranger to hide. A stranger who claimed her as his mate. But being wolfless, she has no idea what this means and just goes along with him since he was a noble man. But as she returns to her friend the next morning, Aurelia finds out Lydia had sold her out to the Councilman in return for a better life. Now seven years later, with no memory of who she is, she unknowingly crosses path again with the stranger from that night. “Mate!” The Alpha suddenly stopped in the middle of his hunt as his nose caught a familiar scent. Well hidden in a spot, two boys snicker amongst themselves as they watched the Alpha look around in confusion. “Is that the Alpha? Doesn’t look like one to me.” “He keeps coming after our pack and mommy. What do we do?” “I have an idea!” Three hours later when the Alpha returned from his walk, he was greeted by the news of his twin sons coming to his abode. What? Twin sons? When he finally accepted the news, the woman they called mommy tried to leave. “Where do you think you’re going? I’m not getting married to you because I want to. I’m getting married to you because my sons need their mother.” Aurelia: “…” When she finally found her voice, she snapped at him. “What are you talking about? Who said they are your sons?” The man pretended to calculate with his fingers before nodding his head a little. “The date we slept together match their date of birth and they look a lot like me. Who can deny such paternity!” Unknown to him, her reappearance in the pack was of no other reason, than to take his life.

Zealous Zodiac

Increasing might and unending endurance under the scorching sun, thickened skin harder than a diamond, and bodily fluids turning into lethal toxins; are a few examples of powers within a Zeal. A birthmark that forms a distinct symbol representing one of the twelve Gods known by the people as the Zodiac. Zeals are the ultimate gift, for aside from the superhuman ability, its bearer could wield magic based on the element of the God who bestowed them their mark. Although Nusterra is an isolated continent, surrounded by raging and stormy seas filled with monstrous beasts, it is a vast land overflowing with natural riches and mana. Nusterra has a long history of war and bloodshed. Twelve kingdoms emerged to power and for a long time, war with each other reached a deadlock. But, animosity turned to cooperation and an agreement of peace was made after an event that almost wiped out humanity. It happened more than a millennium ago, in the era known to man as the Age of Insanity. Chaos ruled over the land, making both beasts and man succumb to madness. Many thought it ended then, but its crumbs started to show itself and increased through time. A thirteenth territory, the nation of Decatris, was formed at the center of Nusterra after the Age of Insanity, serving as the symbol of peace between the twelve kingdoms and its enforcer. Now, with the growing cases of maddened beasts, Aeneas, a boy from the Proud Lion's kingdom of Pantera, aims to become a knight and a hero despite not bearing a Zeal from any of the twelve Zodiac Gods. __________________ Daily Update Schedule: 12:00 P.M.

Gun Keeley, the only son of the powerful Keeley family, loved and spoiled by his mother and father. Diagnosed with IED, he’s got a short fuse, but being their only child after years of trying, his parents overlook it and give him whatever he wants. Gun grew up thinking the world revolved around him. Standing beside a blood-stained bed, he spoke at the person accessing his mind. “So, you’re supposed to be me? From another timeline?” “Yes,” the voice answers, strangely calm. “I’m you.” Gun rolls his eyes. “I’m not saying I don’t believe it, but… you’re kind of an idiot, aren’t you?” “What?” his double snaps. “I mean, you went and messed everything up in a world gone to hell. You couldn’t even wait for people to adapt before treating them like animals? Giving them crumbs while you dined in front of them? Letting them starve and using any woman left as… whatever you felt like?” “Like you wouldn’t do the same.” His double smirks. “Those were just the useless ones.” Gun shakes his head. “No, I’d be smarter than you. Just watch me handle things better. You keep failing because you act first and think later.” His double sneers. “I’d like to see you try.” Gun sighs, looking down at the bruised woman lying in front of him. He feels something he hasn’t felt in a long time: doubt. “Should we… call a doctor?” His double voice taunts him in his mind. “your choice.” Gun sighs again, ignoring the voice. He’s done listening. He’ll prove he’s the smarter one, and if the world does fall apart, he’ll be ready for it—his way. ***** Welcome to the world of apocalypse—alien species, zombies, insects, and ruins everywhere.
