Comedic Noir

A fourth chance at life. The last chance. One would think that Rebirth came with a get out of jail free card, but not when you weren't the only one. Thrust into a world with other Rebirthers hidden in plain sight, the reset button wasn't as convenient for Zarek to use. Worst yet, this comedic system attached to his hip didn't seem as friendly as its banter suggested. Almost like a lurking demon breathing over his shoulder, it steered things from the shadows, pulling on his life in ways even his sensitivity to twists in time couldn't allow him to account for. Even so, Zarek pushed forward. With his third Rebirth Talent used up, his Talent Slots were empty and his other stats had regressed as time ebbed away at who he was little by little... But he had a plan. Somehow, he had to keep it hidden from the other Rebirthers, taking paths they would never expect, and adjusting when their Rebirths interfered with his own. This time, though... on his final shot... he would definitely succeed. For the sake of finding out the truth behind this antagonistic system... For the sake of protecting the girl that had given up everything to remain by his side... For the sake of himself.

"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!" I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world. There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days. Sounds like a dream, right? In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.) The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one. There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me. But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable! === For those who want to know more: This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments. The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality. Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble. MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it. Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL. === Discord is up! Find it at -> https://linktr.ee/Garessta Updates: 2 chapters/day, right after the reset (with a 5% chance of running late). Reply to author's pinned review if you have questions. Also, although I realize the futility of this aim (at least right now), if this novel reaches top 15 golden ticket ranking (and stays there for a few days, obv), I will mass release 10 extra chapters! (within 30 calendar days)

Un amour condamné dès le début, une cause perdue, une bataille vaine — et pourtant, aucun des deux cœurs n'est prêt à lâcher prise jusqu'à la toute fin. ----- Arlan Cromwell, l'incarnation même du Prince Héritier parfait. Tout ce qu'il désire, c'est vivre une vie normale d'humain, mais la vie d'un dragon est tout sauf normale. Il n'a qu'un seul but — retrouver sa fiancée en fuite et la décapiter. Que se passe-t-il lorsqu'il découvre que la femme qui a conquis son cœur est celle qu'il a juré de tuer ? Oriane, une Sorcière Noire, déguisée en homme, a passé toute sa vie à fuir sans savoir ce qu'elle fuit. Lorsque les mystères de son passé commencent petit à petit à la rattraper, elle n'a personne vers qui se tourner… sauf Arlan. Mais quand elle apprend que l'homme à qui elle a donné son cœur est le même homme qui veut la tuer, comment peut-elle accepter la cruelle carte que la vie lui a distribuée ? Deux personnes avec des secrets à garder, des identités à cacher et des réponses à chercher. Lorsque l'obscurité menace d'emporter Oriane, le Dragon pourra-t-il protéger sa compagne ? ----- Extrait - « Si j'avais su que tu étais ma fiancée, je t'aurais tuée dès le premier moment où nous nous sommes rencontrés. » Le regard d'Arlan se teinta de haine. « Si j'avais su que j'étais fiancée à toi, je me serais tuée avant même que tu ne le fasses ! » Oriane reflétait les mêmes émotions que lui. Il sortit un poignard et le lui offrit. « Il n'est pas trop tard. Tranche-toi simplement la gorge avec ça et tu saigneras sans douleur. » Elle accepta le couteau, ses doigts serrant fermement sa poignée. L'instant suivant, il était plaqué contre le mur et le couteau était sur le côté droit de son cou. « Que dirais-tu si je l'essayais sur toi en premier, mon fiancé ? » « Essaie si tu veux. Mais quand tu échoueras, ce couteau goûtera d'abord au sang de ton grand-père, puis au tien. » La colère monta dans ses yeux, et l'instant d'après, du sang coulait sur le côté droit de son cou. Elle avait coupé assez profondément pour trancher un vaisseau sanguin important. « Tu n'aurais pas dû me provoquer, » ricana-t-elle en reculant, attendant qu'il s'effondre. Il se contenta de sourire en coin et passa son doigt le long de la blessure profonde sur son cou. « On dirait que tu as échoué. » Elle regarda la blessure de son cou se cicatriser toute seule et resta choquée jusqu'au plus profond d'elle-même. « Toi... qu'est-ce que tu es ? » « Devine ? » ----- Instagram- mynovel.20 Facebook- Auteur mynoveltwenty

Her two fathers doted on her, and she had a generous supply of resources and pills. Her life was perfect. However, her perfect life came to an abrupt end when Luo Huian, an immortal whose responsibility was to bring peace to those who had reached their ends and had run out of faith—— Watched a man jump down a building. Because of her inflexible beliefs and sense of justice, she did not save the bully. Unfortunately, that man was the son of the heavens. The loss of his life brought infinite trouble in Luo Huian’s life and she was punished by the heavens. She was sent to the world of humans where she had to rescue at least five hundred people by saving their lives when they were at the end of their wits. For an immortal this was an easy job, right? Wrong. Her grandmother sent Luo Huian to a world where Gloom Rocks had wrecked chaos. Beasts and monsters were given birth to by the Gloom Rocks that sucked every ounce of happiness from humans.

He also wants to hold a grandchild. So, wife let's work hard tonight alright?” Luo Huian: Dear Heavens save me, I am a woman of no desire! **** Resisting the temptation take 2: “Do you think he is good looking?” Fan Meilin questioned the woman who stood next to him. Even though he was the one who won the race and the trophy, his wife was looking at the other mer. “Well yes,” Luo Huian, who was an appreciator of beauty, agreed at once. “Why are you asking this though?” Fan Meilin’s eyes flashed as he smiled at her and leaned in closer to her body as he whispered in her ear, “He might be good looking but I am a better driver. Not only on the track but also in bed, do you want to try darling?” Luo Huian: Resist the temptation! At all costs! I am an iron-hearted woman. ***** Resisting the temptation take 3: “Is this necessary?” Luo Huian questioned as she sat on the couch, watching the mer trace his fingers on her curves while she sat in nothing but modern swimwear. The mer nodded as he wrote on his small notepad, “I need to trace every inch of your skin to create my finest creation, so don’t move.” After he finished writing, he handed the notepad to Luo Huian, his fingers brushing against the curve of her bosom, waist and ——— Luo Huian: My virtue is at extreme risk! ** Fl who is trying to do everything to save her virtue from being taken as it would slow down her cultivation X Mls who are trying their best to snatch it from her. *********** Trigger warning: though the book is set in a comedic setting, there might be some uneasy topics that would discuss depression and loneliness. ***********

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A DEVIL FALLS IN LOVE? *** Alice was told that she was cursed. Perhaps she didn't need to be told. It was as clear as day. The only thing she wanted was MONEY. And she would do anything to get it. Even if it meant pretending to be her twin sister to change her fate. For one year. She didn't mind being a fake and marrying the Wildfire Heir. He would barely be around, she had been told. 'He doesn't seem like much trouble,' she had also been told. 'The third son, on the other hand, is crazy. Stay away from him.' 'As for the second son... avoid him at all costs.' 'Do not cross his path.' But she did. She crossed his path. In fact, she went right into his path herself. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the groom was changed at the last minute. To the Second Son! He was as hot as he was cold. A terrifyingly sexy man who looked like the man she always saw in her dreams. Was this all merely a coincidence? But that wasn't all. She hadn't expected pretending to be her sister to be this tough. First of all, she missed a very important detail: her sister was a Lawyer. She, on the other hand, was only familiar with "You have the right to remain silent..." Secondly, her sister was picky. She was vegetarian. She didn't drink. And... she was bullied? And just maybe... there was more to her sudden disappearance. Her life was about to get much more complicated. Especially with those scary blue eyes watching her every move like a predator on a mission. One year. Was the benefit worth it—worth putting her life on the line to deceive the Wildfires? She might die before the year was over. **** "Women like powerful men, Boss. They like to feel powerless when they are with a man." Hades had initially scoffed, but the idea had wormed its way into his mind. So when he saw her coming from the opposite direction, he decided to test this theory on her. Women liked to feel powerless? As soon as she saw him, her gaze sharpened, wondering why that madman was looking at her with a determined glint in his eyes. Should she run away? But he was already in front of her. "What are you—" He scoops Alice off the ground in one swift motion and drapes her over his shoulder like a sack of flour. All shocked eyes turned to the scene, but no one dared say a word, as they froze mid-air. "HADES!! YOU IMBECILE! PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT!" She thrashes wildly, kicking her legs and flailing her arms. Hades, however, remains unfazed, carrying her out of the place with a triumphant smirk. He didn't believe in love theories, but he had a feeling she would be falling in love with him after this. At the other end, three of his underling watched the scene. "I think Lady Boss is enjoying it. She looks… happy." One noted. The other underling tried to stare intently at Alice's upside-down face. "I think so... I've never seen her look so bubbly around the boss." The third underling was watching, slack-jawed. He facepalmed dramatically. This wasn't what he meant when he told them women liked to feel powerless. Meanwhile, Alice... (Still screaming) *** EXCERPT II: "She is not answering your calls and told you to STOP calling her. Boss, I think your little bride might be mad at you." He snorted. "You are so clueless." "What's your insight, Boss?" "If she keeps rejecting my calls, it only means one thing..." They all leaned closer to hear his powerful insight. "She wants my physical presence," he said with a smug look. One of them wanted to say he didn't think so, but he was too scared to say anything. "Should I go. Should I not go?" He contemplated with a bored look on his face. "GRANT HER WISH, BOSS!" The other clueless henchmen echoed passionately. He smirked. "If you say so," and then he stood up. "Get the car." **** Pleasee add to your library. A bit of dark and fluffy romance. 18+ Comedic. Makes you sit in the edge as Alice tries her best to never get caught (quite futile) See you in the comment section!

A CURSE — A tale of secrets, love, betrayal, and destiny. Stories — many have heard them, read them, even lived them. But this… this is a tale unheard. A tale woven with shadows, secrets, and half-truths — where reality blurs and deception dances in plain sight. A tale from a world unlike any other: the enchanted realm of Seven Fairylands. 1. Frosthevan 2. Blushing Beauty Land 3. Sunflower Land 4. Crimson Cove 5. Skyland 6. Iceland 7. Lunaria Noir At first glance, a realm of beauty and magic. But behind its royal grace lie stains of blood and betrayal. In the heart of this world is Celeste, a pure and innocent fairy destined to become the Queen of Frosthevan. Unaware of the treachery surrounding her, she is ensnared in a grand conspiracy. And at the center of it all — Caelum, a mysterious soul who poses as a pixie, but is truly a fairy, burning with a hunger for power and control over the Fairylands. While Caelum chases a force that could make her invincible, her lies catch the eye of the wise Mother Fairy. But instead of punishing Caelum, the Mother curses Celeste — to protect the realm from what she sees as an impending doom. Betrayed, cursed, and torn between love and truth, Celeste rises in rebellion. She chooses love over fate — and steps into the human world in search of Caelum. But what is the secret only Caelum and the Mother Fairy know? Is Caelum truly the villain? Or is there another hidden truth waiting to be uncovered? A curse. A love story born in the shadows. A journey across worlds. Celeste must uncover the buried truths of the Fairylands — secrets that could shatter everything. Will her innocence survive the truth? Will she ever find the real Caelum — or only more lies? “A Curse” promises to keep you questioning until the very last chapter — How many secrets can one soul carry? Who’s truly right… and who’s devastatingly wrong?

In a world where magic is etched into the very essence of existence, a person’s power is reflected in their eyes. Flames, torrents, and storms rage within the irises of the mighty, and the elite four clans rule over this magical realm. But for Rai, a 12-year-old boy with ordinary eyes, life is anything but ordinary. Despite being born without the gift of magic, Rai dreams of becoming the Elmag—the supreme leader of the four clans and the most powerful being in the land. His audacious goal is met with ridicule and skepticism at every turn, but Rai’s unshakable confidence and quirky charm make him a force to be reckoned with. When Rai receives a mysterious invitation to the prestigious Magia Elemental Academy, the world’s greatest magic school, he steps into a whirlwind of intrigue, rivalry, and discovery. His arrival sparks chaos, as he openly declares his intentions to rise to the top and even boldly proclaims that the beautiful and fiery Rose Scarlett, daughter of the current Elmag, will one day be his wife. From comedic clashes with overconfident bullies to high-stakes magical duels, Rai’s journey is fraught with danger, laughter, and mystery. His encounter with Mammoth Stark, the academy’s most powerful student, and the enigmatic Frost Kromus sets the stage for a battle of wills and powers. But unbeknownst to many, Rai harbors a secret—one that could shake the very foundations of this magical world. With his unyielding determination, Rai challenges the norms of society and sets out to prove that greatness isn’t confined to the glow of one’s eyes. His journey is not just about power, but about redefining what it means to be extraordinary. Will this boy with “ordinary” eyes rise to the pinnacle of a world that deems him unworthy? Or will he succumb to the overwhelming odds stacked against him? One thing is certain—Rai’s story is anything but ordinary.

"You’re ours," Varen whispered, his voice a velvet threat, "and we don’t share unless it’s with each other." I was never supposed to matter. An omega raised in the shadows, hidden behind my warrior family's shame, I only ever wanted to survive. Maybe, if I was lucky, find love with someone like me— someone quiet. Gentle. Unseen. But the moon had other plans. And under its eerie blue glow, three impossibly powerful, dangerously beautiful Alphas—triplets— claimed me as their mate. Varen. The charming firebrand with a wicked tongue and a sugarcane smile. Kiel. The silent forest poet who sings to wolves and kisses like moonlight. Thorne. The battle-scarred leader who doesn’t believe in fate... yet burns when I walk away. They were meant to lead the pack. I was meant to be nothing. Now I’m caught between them — between chaos and devotion, between savage protection and secret longing. I should have run the night they called me "mate." But when my bloodline reveals a rare power the world thought extinct, I become the key to a storm that could tear our world apart. Betrayal bleeds through every shadow. My family sold me. My enemies want to own me. And love? It was never supposed to look like this. But maybe fate didn’t get it wrong. Maybe I was never made for one mate. Maybe I was made for them all.

Kaito Tanaka, a high schooler whose kindness is both a superpower and a crippling curse, just wanted a peaceful school life. But when his simple acts of decency are wildly misinterpreted by the school's tsundere ice queen, his possessive childhood friend, a shy bookworm, a fiery sports star, and even four of his own teachers, he finds himself at the center of a harem. The catch? They all despise each other, and Kaito's life has become a 24/7 battlefield of jealousy, comedic misunderstandings, and ridiculously ecchi situations.

"Wish Upon A Star" The Item I used to turn back time amidst a battlefield of gods and devils. To go back and change everything so that I can live a life without regret. To be the highest form of existence, a Sovereign just like my ex-lover. This time, I will change it all. F*ck being an extra. + What to expect: Anti-Hero Protagonist, Overpowered Protagonist/Fast Progression, Genderbent Protagonist (Purely for comedic reasons, also I'm sick of writing male protagonists.

Le Silence sous la Soie Dans un empire où les sourires sont masques, où les poisons sont plus puissants que les épées, et où même les dieux se taisent, un jeune esclave nommé Ken est vendu pour sa beauté inhumaine — des yeux aussi noirs qu’un abîme sans fond, une peau pâle comme la lune, et des cheveux qui ne reflètent aucune lumière. Acheté par Seiran, un mystérieux noble éblouissant, Ken devient son serviteur, son ombre, son reflet imparfait. Mais derrière son obéissance se cache un but : comprendre, surpasser, s’élever. Ken observe, imite, dévore le monde avec une seule intention : le dominer. Sa route croise Yuehime, apothicaire géniale, brisée mais indomptable, obsédée par les poisons plus que par les hommes. Puis Sahiya, consort impériale aussi distante qu’envoutante, dont le regard trouble les plus puissants. Et Ishime, dame de glace et de logique, froide comme la vérité. Mais tout change le jour où l’Empereur arrive incognito. Derrière la splendeur du trône se cache un mensonge : Jinshi, que tous croient frère de l’Empereur… est en réalité son fils. La vérité explose, les liens se brisent, les cœurs se dévoilent, et Ken voit enfin s’ouvrir une brèche dans le destin. À travers les jeux politiques, les trahisons silencieuses, les amours impossibles et les poisons lentement distillés, chacun cherche sa place, ou sa liberté. Mais dans un monde où les sentiments sont faiblesse, où l’intelligence est une arme et la beauté un piège… … qui survivra sans perdre son âme ?

Contenu MATURE !] "Alors servez-moi... correctement." La commande était à la fois sensuelle et autoritaire, et le pouls de Xue Li s'accéléra sous son regard intense. L'air entre eux devenait lourd, ses mains tremblantes faiblissant alors qu'elle commençait à passer l'éponge sur son torse, son toucher léger contre ses cicatrices. "O-oui Votre Majesté." Han Feng se pencha légèrement en arrière, la regardant à travers ses yeux mi-clos, son expression indéchiffrable. "Plus lentement," murmura-t-il, sa voix un grondement bas qui fit sauter son pouls. "Vous tremblez," dit-il, sa voix soyeuse, la faisant sursauter. "C-c'est la vapeur, Votre Majesté," balbutia-t-elle, bien qu'elle savait que c'était une mauvaise excuse. Han Feng gloussa doucement, le son profond et riche. "Hmm... C'est ainsi ? Alors vous n'avez aucun problème à nettoyer mon membre, n'est-ce pas ?" Les yeux de Xue Li tremblaient, au bord des larmes, ce qui semblait plaire à Han Feng. Son sourire s'élargit alors qu'il l'encourageait. "Allez. Vous allez me servir correctement, n'est-ce pas ?"

Grimble Gripgold is far from the average Goblin. He’s a Private Investigator for one, with an attitude more sour than spoiled milk and a mind hard wired to fish out even the most minor details. It doesn’t make him very good at his job though. He’s much better at getting into trouble— and trouble comes in the form of blood red eyes and savage intentions when he’s set on a case to find a missing person that sends him on a hunt for more than he ever could’ve imagined. He’s now in a race against time. And when the timer strikes zero, not only will he lose the case, but his mind will go with it. extra tags: Sci-fi fantasy, noir, grimdark, comedy, fast pace, short-story, magical realism, gritty, dark, unique hybrid, trope-twist, smart-mc.

RELEASE: 2+ chps/weekend NOTE: Vol. 4-6 chapters are LONG (revisions pending). Normal chapter count would be ~500 for Vol. 1-6. When college physics student Mizuki Hakuto faces the obligatory bus-kun death of all isekai protagonists, he's brought face-to-face with a divine entity. When not mocking Mizuki, the so-called godling explains the nature of the universe – gods, godlings, mythical beasts, and more. Most importantly, magic is real. Just...not on Earth. Inspired by Earth's manga and having a penchant for drama, the godling offers him the opportunity to experience these things on a different world. The world is ruled by a strange god that treats it like a divine petri dish, and it's filled with interesting creatures the god collected from all across the universe. The god of this strange planet seems welcoming and helpful at first, but Mizuki quickly realizes that all is not as it seems in the magical world of Azura. Wielding science and newfound sorcery, Mizuki investigates the fundamental laws of magic, the nature of the divine, and more, but his progress is watched in secret by powerful forces. As he gains knowledge and power, and his darker nature is revealed, will the gods sit idly by? FAQ: Q – What's the overall tone of this story? A – It seems pretty lighthearted at first, but the trajectory of the story makes it progressively darker. I'd say the story takes itself fairly serious at times, but the characters' personalities lend to plenty of comedic dialogue. Especially in the lull between major events. Q – Isekai tropes? A – Yes. Some are leaned into, some are mocked, but most make an appearance in some form. Q – Is the MC's prior life relevant? A – Yes! The MC relies heavily on knowledge specific to Earth, and especially his science background. The MC trying to reconcile his scientific understanding from Earth with this newfound variable of magic is a major theme of the story. Q – How is the MC isekai'd? Is he reincarnated? A – In the most tropey way possible, of course. He gets hit by a bus. After dying, he's resurrected in his original body and sent to another world as 18 years old. Q – Is there slavery in this isekai? A – Yes, and it's not a pretty industry. However, the MC detests the slavery on Azura. The story won't shy away from the effect it has on the lives of those the MC meets. This will not be one of those stories where the MC virtue signals about how bad slavery is, but inexplicably keeps slaves of their own and it's painted as 'good' because the slaves are 'treated well'. Q – Is the MC overpowered? A – Absolutely, but this will change much later, as the story progresses. Q – Is this another self-insert isekai story? A – I certainly think it's true that the MC lacks personality early on in the series – it takes a while to learn much about his personal life on Earth or personality. We're watching an MC who seems to be a reactionary person on Earth, just going through the motions, necessarily develop more of a sense of self in a world where his actions are more consequential. Q – You tagged this as 'romance'...is there a harem? A – Yup. It takes a long time for the second romance to happen, and the harem always remains very small, but eventually it happens.

Book 1of the Rainbow Sisters Series Reese Laurier is the eldest of the seven Laurier sisters—and not just in name. At only eighteen, she's already the official CEO of their father's company, juggling board meetings, business proposals, and her sisters’ daily chaos with military precision and an eye-roll always at the ready. She thrives on control, order, and excellence. Feelings? Flirting? Boys? Absolutely not on the agenda.

It’s a full-blown PR disaster. At least in her mind. What follows is a comedic spiral of sharp-tongued arguments, tension-filled encounters, and unwanted attention from a boy who seems to enjoy pressing all her buttons—and maybe something else too. Raiden’s persistent teasing starts to chip at Reese’s icy resolve, and worst of all… her heart might be starting to glitch. She’s built for boardrooms, not butterflies. And yet… Cherry-red lipstick, stolen glances, and locker-side threats later—Reese might be losing control of more than just her schedule.

Dear Reader, My name is Lola, and this isn’t just a book about dating. It’s about living. Yes, there are dates. Hundreds, actually. Some real. Some exaggerated for comedic relief (because trauma is exhausting and humor is free). But behind every swipe, every dinner, every wild story, there’s a woman surviving. A woman unraveling. A woman rebuilding. This is about me, my life, my heartbreaks, my hilarity, my healing. The messy, sacred chaos of it all. You’ll meet exes (some I married, some I should’ve blocked), friends who became family, and red flags I mistook for carnival rides. You’ll also find the truth I spent years avoiding— about love, motherhood, neurodivergence, faith, fear, and finally choosing myself. This isn’t a self-help book, but if it helps, I’m glad. It’s not an advice column, but if it feels like one sometimes, that’s okay too. Think of it more like a long, unfiltered letter from a big sister who’s been through it and wants to make you laugh, cry, and maybe pack a spare car seat... just in case. So settle in. You’re not alone. I’ve got stories to tell. With love, Lola
