In the year 2025, a cataclysmic celestial event fractures the boundaries between worlds. The entire European Union—its land, people, infrastructure, and institutions—is mysteriously transported to *Eldryth*, a realm of floating continents, ancient magic, and warring feudal kingdoms. Overnight, 27 member states and 450 million citizens find themselves stranded in a world where dragons rule the skies, enchanted forests harbor sentient beasts, and political power is measured in mana crystals rather than euros. The EU’s founding principles of unity, democracy, and human rights clash violently with Eldryth’s arcane hierarchies and blood-oath loyalties. Chancellor *Lira Voss*, a pragmatic German leader, and *High Magister Kaelan Thorne*, a cunning elven sorcerer-regent, become unlikely adversaries—and reluctant allies—as they navigate a precarious peace. While EU engineers scramble to adapt renewable energy grids to run on elemental ley lines, Polish cavalrymen trade tactics with griffin riders, and Italian chefs reinvent pasta using *voidshroom* flour, darker forces stir. The *Sunderborn*, a cult worshipping the eldritch entity that caused the transmigration, seeks to devour both worlds. *Aegis Europa* blends geopolitical intrigue with high fantasy, exploring questions of cultural assimilation, technological vs. magical progress, and whether a bureaucratic superpower can survive sword-and-sorcery diplomacy. As the EU’s Parliament debates trade pacts with merfolk city-states and NATO mages duel necromancer warlords, one truth becomes clear: the only way home is to forge a new *Celestial Accord*… or watch both realms collapse into chaos.

In a world where kingdoms rise and fall, a seasoned player unexpectedly finds himself transmigrated into the very game he once mastered—Caldera. However, his new life as a ruler comes with a crushing twist: severe debuffs and harsh restrictions on his talents make survival nearly impossible. Against overwhelming odds, he fights tooth and nail to carve out a legacy. Despite his brilliance in strategy and marvels in combat, failure becomes his ultimate fate. But fate offers him another chance. Reborn at the start of the game, now without the crippling debuffs and armed with all the knowledge, experience, and hard-won lessons of his previous life, he faces the world anew. This novel is a bit fast-paced compared to current mainstream trends. It will delve into human nature and how far people are willing to go for meager profit. Most characters will be evil, and even the good ones only appear good because the actions they take align with their own interests, rather than being motivated by true goodness.

The world can be divided into "two hemispheres of the same planet". The first is ordinary people living on planets. And what about the second part?

|| To all the readers who are grieving over Caelestis Lanister’s death. I deeply apologize but this character always deserved death in my eyes of justice.

I have an offer for you. Would you like to change the destiny of Caelestis Lanister? Yes/No|| A translucent blue window appeared in front of Eleanore, who had just opened her eyes in a strange white place, after meeting her end in a Traffic accident.

Why must she listen to these accusations? “I have no such intentions!” she shouted at his face, gasping to find breath. “Let me go!” Her foot lashed out, kicking him in the thigh, but he quickly pinned it down as well.

Panic surged through her as she struggled to find, her nails digged deep into at his arm in a desperate attempt to free herself.

She sat there, calm and unbothered, as though she hadn’t just spilled blood in the lobby like it was her second nature. Her crimson-polished nails clicked rhythmically against the smooth table. Her gaze was fixed on the open book in front of her—a book she hadn’t turned a single page of all morning. “I see you love standing, Adonis.” Her voice was calm, almost too calm. She didn’t bother looking up. “It was just a hug, Veronica,” I said through gritted teeth. “You shouldn’t have done that. Maya has served you loyally for years—” “Until she touched what is mine.” Her voice sliced through my words, sharp and absolute. I laughed bitterly, shaking my head. “What’s yours? What’s the point of being yours when you treat me like… like I’m nothing?” The book slammed shut with a deafening clap. She rose to her feet in one fluid motion, every step toward me deliberate, predatory. Her eyes met mine, cold and unrelenting. “No one touches you but me, Adonis. Good, bad, whatever label you want to slap on it—I don’t care.” My breath caught in my throat, but I forced myself to hold my ground. “That’s not love, Veronica.” She tilted her head, a cruel smile tugging at her lips. “Love?” She laughed, soft but sharp, the sound laced with mockery. “Don’t insult me.”

The cockroach den of Brooklyn, New York, harbors Wall Street's most feared hunter. Lucas - the diner waiter who is humiliated by spilled red wine every day - spends his time between polishing silverware writing hedge fund loopholes in ketchup. When he discovers that the financial queen has blackmailed herself into becoming a scapegoat with her mother's chemo bills, the blockchain key hidden in his steak knife starts to glow. On the night of the Michelin three-star bow tie stained with blood, the poor kid used cryptocurrency to set off a financial nuclear explosion across the Manhattan yacht and the UN dome.

When the digital flood engulfs the bronze bulls of Wall Street, you will realize: true power is always born in the eyes of those who have been stepped into the muck.

“A surprise?” The Prince scoffed. “And if I had died out there? You would have let me die as a prince who never knew his daughter existed.” Her smile didn’t falter. “I’m grateful you didn’t. So, my surprise still worked. And more than that, I suppose I got a surprise too… about your new arranged marriage, Your Grace.” Her nails pressed into her palms through the crumpled fabric of the handkerchief. She wouldn’t let herself crumble. Not now. Not after everything. She vowed to hold her composure—as the lady of the castle, the Marchioness of Ravenswood. === Duty over Desire.

After the long, gruelling battle, the Prince’s return as a hero turned into agony for Elara when he was bound by Royal Decree to enter an alliance marriage with a warrior princess. Vain would be an understatement for the disdain she felt. She refused to shatter into the broken mirror of her former self. In a kingdom where fate is whispered through ancient spells and the Moon Goddess watches in silence, Elara, once certain the goddess had forsaken her, must uncover the blessing veiled beneath her suffering. What she once saw as duty has become an undeniable desire. She must protect her legacy—not just as a mother, but as a woman who’s discovering more about her own power. Will she uphold her duty to protect what matters most, or will her desire awaken a force she never dared to dream of—perhaps, love? === [WARNING MATURE CONTENT 18+] WebNovel Spirity Awards 2025 Entry

Between Wings is a tale of class, romance, and survival, where every choice is fraught with danger and even the smallest kindness can have far-reaching consequences. For fans of slow-burn romance, rich historical drama, and characters navigating a world determined to define them, this is a story of transformation and defiance against all odds.
