Cruz Eden

Michelle El-Tan Cruz is a typical thirty-one-year-old general surgeon who is perfectly content with her lovely lifestyle—except for one thing: she has never had a boyfriend. After celebrating her friend’s daughter’s graduation at a party, she falls victim to a thug on the street late at night. Despite her attempts to resist, she is stabbed and dies. Surprisingly, she awakens in another world, reborn as Aurora, the eldest child of the Starlight Kingdom Royal family. In this new life, she finally has the opportunity to live life on her own terms and pursue her desires.

Neva and Rhett, the two youths have their heart strings attached in love. Interfering their peaceful life circumstances unfolds scattering blades in their romance. Ishmael, with a heart of spikes, he looks to mend the wound, searching and failing for his Neva separated from him. Rays of love and joy filtering through clouds of horror in the world, Neva before him once more. The twisted fate entangling them, reveals the game of sphere as misery burns their soul. Concealed life beyond turning pages—one after another. The tale gathers: sin and virtue, tragedy and fortune, strength and weakness, destruction and creation, love and hate. Illusion is where we live; in the Garden of Eden before the fall of man. Illusive is serenity; an evermore sanguine of love. Visionary of Eden in the new earth; sows hope deep in the soul. Delusory pleasure of the world; shall bring us burns in the ocean of fire. Illusive Eden is peace. Illusive Eden is tragedy. The fall of the man, even now bleeding red. The whisper whirls with the dawn of a man. He, who pretends to be the Hero. (The girl who promised to always be together, Forbids him to ever appear, Refusing to recognise him, She disregards all he ever had. Vowing to protect her, He's the terrifying truth she hopes rules lie. Tripping and ripping her, He's the living tragedy looming in on her life. He once was her Elayne, now her hiraeth; He's the villain pretending to be a Hero.)

``` —¡Feng Tianyi! ¡Tu hermano destruyó mi familia Tang! ¿Hay algo bueno en tu familia? —exclamó con ira. —En. ¿No ves cómo nuestros buenos genes se transmiten a nuestros hijos? En cuanto a la deuda de la familia Feng, te la pagaré —dijo con despreocupación. Tang Moyu se rió con desdén y cruzó los brazos sobre su pecho. —¿Cómo piensas pagarlo? —¿Qué tal si te reembolso con mi cuerpo? ... ¡Qué sinvergüenza! El hombre sentado en su silla de ruedas estalló en una carcajada al ver su fea expresión. —Señorita Tang, no tiene sentido que pretendas que no lo has visto ya que prácticamente te subiste a mi cama y te aprovechaste de mí. Hace cinco años, Tang Moyu era la emperatriz del mundo empresarial y estaba en la cima de su carrera antes de ser reducida a nada cuando su prometido se enamoró de otra mujer. Eso estaba bien, ya que no había amor entre ella y Feng Tianhua, pero ¿quién hubiera pensado que esta ‘Cenicienta’ era un lobo con piel de oveja? Luego está Feng Tianyi, el infame sucesor de la familia Feng, un autor aclamado por la crítica que constantemente sacudía la lista de los más vendidos con sus libros. Los rumores dicen que era de carácter fuerte y temperamental. Era tan despiadado que ni hombres ni mujeres querían su compañía. Los rumores incluso dicen que su rostro era tan bello y fuera de este mundo. Era prácticamente un dios entre los hombres. Era una lástima que estuviera incapacitado. Los dos nunca debían encontrarse de nuevo, pero un par de dulces pequeños bollos intervinieron. —Tío, no tenemos dinero para pagarle por los daños —dijo el mayor de los Pequeños Bollos. —Mis manuscritos no tienen precio —respondió este tío apuesto con diversión. —Tío, si no te importa, ¿podemos pagar con nuestra Mami? Ella también es invaluable —propuso el pequeño. Y así el par de dulces pequeños bollos y el tío apuesto llegaron a un acuerdo, pero ¿quién hubiera pensado que la mujer en cuestión era una reina helada del infierno que tenía una extraña afinidad por los dulces? — Editor/corrector: ninaviews Portada del libro: Bizzybiin / derechos de autor 2020 anjeeriku ```

After being struck by a crazed driver, Eden found himself reincarnated in another world as the young master of one of the three most powerful clans of the modern era. However, he soon realized he had been reborn into a world from a novel he had never read, only seen advertised. Born with one of the six heavenly eyes: Doom, he was known as the Lord of Doom. His eyes - a source of great danger - had to be covered at all costs, for anything they gazed upon would meet its demise. But, that wasn’t the last heavenly eyes he was to receive. Did he receive a system? Yes. But not the kind we all imagine and read every day. Transmigration? Yes, after his first reincarnation then he got transmigrated into... Souls, or rather Akumas (Demons or Devils)? Yes, the villains and threat to the world's balance. World building? Can't be explained in word as it's too large. Overpowered characters, not just the main character? Yes. ............. Paused! Chapter updates throughout this month are now paused! I'm writing the rest of volume one, and also trying to complete volume two. So, chapter updates are paused till I'm done.

In a world of constant competition, one man aims for the top. In this new genre VRMMORPG, he plans on becoming the strongest at all costs. The classes, the races, the starting zones, everything is a mystery in 'New Eden'. This game is coming out without a shred of details. The only thing that was promoted was the freedom of skill choosing. Our protagonist Alexander, gamer tag Astaroth, has always dreamt of becoming an E-Sports athlete. His parents supported his dream, but they are no longer of this world. He fully intends on making it in this new game, if not for him, then at least to honor their memory. With no idea how he wants to play his character, Alexander chooses the most mysterious starting race. Will this be his road to success or his downfall? The game assistant certainly thought the latter. "Do as you wish, young adventurer. I only wish to add this. Do not come back with complaints when you realize you have made the wrong choice," the elf said, looking at him with clear hatred. "We will see about that," Alexander flatly replied. "I love challenges," he added. "Very well!" the elf harrumphed. "Have the adventure of your lifetime, as short as it will last," he sarcastically added. Ahead of him lies an uncertain path, filled with trials and hardships. But one thing is clear in his eyes. He will become the strongest player in the game, even if he must step over mountains of corpses to do so. Over are his days of working hard for nothing, it's make or break now! I now have a discord where you can talk with other readers and me. There are also channels to discuss new weapons; characters; classes; or monsters that you might want to design and see incorporated in the story.

It’s the year 2073, and everything has changed. New high-tech dominates almost all aspects of life. However, this has a dark side: unethical human experiments. 17-year-old Akira Cruz, the genius nephew of the president of the Philippines, was in the middle of grieving for his late best friend when he stumbled upon an abandoned orphan boy in the mountains while on a hike with his younger sister. That boy is Hachi Shimizu, a half-zombie, half-vampire who was disposed of by an evil organization known as the Kara Tech, which was notorious for its brutal and unethical experiments. Together, the two boys team up with a detective named Toshi Kawasaki, a half-Japanese, half-British who specializes in the supernatural and also considers the murder case of Akira’s best friend open despite the police closing it due to a lack of evidence. The three of them believed that Kara Tech was somehow connected to the disappearances of various children in and around the Tokyo Metropolitan Area. As they go and solve cases, their friendship blossoms, especially when two people, Riho Yoshihara, Akira's childhood, biracial friend, and Htet Kawa, a half-Japanese, half-Burmese junior detective from Yokohama, come along in their various missions, both involving the supernatural and the overworld. Will they stop the organization from committing more heinous crimes before it’s too late? Warning: the photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!!!

The Hollowing came like a thief in the dead of the night - silent, merciless, and absolute. It was an event that permanently scarred humanity’s history, stealing along all of the possibility, wonder and hope that this world once had - for it was the year that the spark of wonder had been wretched from existence, the year that magic had died. But many soon came to realise that the Hollowing was not the end but the beginning. Cracks opened around the world, bringing about the descent of the Dark fog, and along with it, a dread unbound by mortal thought which devoured the weak and hunted those who still clung too closely to the memory of magic. Year 3999. 1800 years after the Hollowing, humanity has been pushed to live inside the walls of Domes: monolithic walls, encasing gargantuan swaths of land protected by an ancient being from the era of magic, the Acacia. Yet, the peace that it brought was like a festering wound, throbbing with unresolved mysteries and bringing about feelings of hatred and fear, of that day 1800 years ago when one decided to break an oath. As tensions beneath the surface simmer and an unknown group threatens to sink humanity down once and for all, a meeting that would change the fate of a young boy - one that had the potential to shake both sides, one that would bring about change to the whole continent of Paradoxia - was about to take place. The meeting of disciple and master. It was at that moment that the goddess of fate began to spin her wheel to weave tales for this forgotten world once more.

Having destroyed our world, we set out to conquer another.
