Pacific Rim

Chronicles of two powers

Amidst escalating Chinese aggression in the Pacific, Japan and the United States maintained their strong alliance, fully aware of the looming possibility of Taiwan facing an invasion. Japan, having emerged as an economic powerhouse in the Pacific after the Civil War and World War II, was viewed by China as a major obstacle to their expansionist ambitions. With Article 9 no longer in effect, recent developments indicated Japan's unwavering determination to defend Taiwan. The Japanese government considered their fleet of four carriers crucial in this regard. However, unforeseen circumstances would soon engulf both Japan and the United States, transporting them to a world where magic and dragons held fundamental significance. Embracing their new reality, Japan and the United States forged a fresh coalition, leveraging their influence and steadfast principles in this unfamiliar realm. In light of agreed-upon arrangements, the two nations embarked on a joint expeditionary force to explore the new world, fully aware that the likelihood of this world aligning with their coalition was slim. As they beheld the new world, Japan and America encountered conflicts and ongoing wars that surpassed the brutality of their previous reality. They navigated this unfamiliar land, seeking to establish themselves as influential entities. The new world would soon have the opportunity to learn from the experiences and ideals of Japan and America. Based on the series of Nihonkoku Shoukan. The story is now available on Scribble hub and Royal Road.

Becoming A Real Bigshot After Abandoned

Xia Jin had been Huo Jue's secretary for five years. Not long after she started working, Huo Jue had already taken her to the bed in the CEO's lounge. In those five years, she worked diligently in the day and served him diligently in bed at night. Every morning, she would wake him up like a dutiful secretary. "Mr. Huo, it's six o'clock. It's time to get up." Every time, she would receive the man's cold and impatient reply, "Get lost." Xia Jin had never taken his car to work, nor had she eaten breakfast with him. Initially, she had dreamed of becoming Mrs. Huo, but after five years, she woke up from her dream. One day, rumors were spreading among her colleagues that Huo Jue had an appointment with Sevne's vice president in the Asia-Pacific region for dinner. He was a pervert who had once drugged and violated the secretary of the company's CEO. He was someone who even dared to pester Huo Jue's elder female cousin, but Huo Jue still insisted on letting Xia Jin accompany him to dinner. During the meal, the man openly brought Xia Jin into the private lounge, but Huo Jue did not stop him. He did not even bother looking at her. When Xia Jin escaped from the lounge on her own and ran back to Huo Jue's car, he merely commented, "You're quite capable." Xia Jin smiled calmly. "I have Mr. Huo's many years of training to thank for, but I'm hereby informing you that I want to resign. I don't want to work anymore." After she announced it, she disregarded whatever expression was on the man's face, got out of the car, and walked away with her back straight. After leaving the man, Xia Jin's life started to change. Handsome young men chased after her with all their might, and people started giving her credits that contributed to her career achievements. Her father, who she had never met before, was a billionaire—she was now someone who could have a massive inheritance with just a nod of her head.

"It seems like you still have feelings for me. How else can you explain you chasing me all the way here?" Xia Jin smiled and faceslapped him, "Mr. Huo, I don't think I invited you, right?" Huo Nan replied, "Do you have brain damage from your excessive heartbreak?" The host announced, "Next, let's welcome the new CEO of the company, Miss Xia Jin, on stage!

Pandora Protocol

A sea region situated more than six hundred thousand miles from the mainland of Mexico, where Clarion Island – now known as Zero Zone – was resided. Clarion Island; one of the most remote of Revillagigedo Islands that once belonged to the State of Mexico, was bought by United States to establish the largest nuclear reactor research and development center in the world. Nearly ninety percent of the world's energy demand was met by hundreds of nuclear reactors. The scarcity of coal, oil, and natural gas was the sole reason, making an entire earth's population to depend on the uninhabited island covering an area of twenty square kilometers. All ought to be fine, however not forever; till that bright Thursday night, no a single soul on Earth would expect it to happen. April 4, 2097 22:04 PDT The energy discharge of four hundred nuclear reactors that occurred simultaneously, creating explosive power of more than seventy thousand megatons of TNT – more than capable of obliterating Clarion Island in a blink of an eye. A catastrophe worse thousands of times than The Chernobyl Disaster. And it couldn't even be measured within INES scale – simply went off the chart. The radioactive waste wasn't the only concern, but also megatsunami waves caused by the explosion and the sinking of Clarion Island buried all small islands around the Pacific Ocean into the azure sand by megatsunami's waves as high as fifteen thousand feet continuing to hurtle seemingly without anyone or anything could stop it. The world, at that time, was on the verge of collapse, United States, which felt responsible for the harrowing tragedy, immediately set End-of-the-World Scenario to its highest level. And so quarter of an hour after the explosion, United States with the help of Neo Uni Soviet, jointly nuclear bombed the megatsunami's waves to prevent the sinking of all lands on Earth. Miraculously, the team that was once known in the Old World as the Allies, succeeded of stopping the doomsday. However, there was no room for breathing, because more threats bounded to ensue, But strangely, the radioactive waste that was feared would accumulate in Earth's atmosphere and its ocean… in fact after a year had passed since that terrible tragedy, all of it somewhat disappeared without a trace… or being absorbed to be exact… by something. Something within Zero Zone… the starting point of all changes, Despite so, as for the final result of megatsunami, the composition of continents, islands and Face of the Earth had changed entirely. The emergence of new islands, and the disappearance of the old ones… and one of those newborn islands was Zero Zone, the source of all miracles, Therefore, an organization was founded, yclept Avodance… with the sole purpose was to explore Zero Zone and to find such a miracle. Two years of exploring they did, and finally found it upon excavating ruins of hundreds nuclear reactors that once was a prosperous island. A stone, similar to a crystal for its transparent structure, rough texture of a perfect spherical shape and blackish purple in color. They ultimately labeled the gemlike stone, Hailagma. They soon realized that Hailagma was emitting unknown energy infinitely times greater than Clarion Explosion. Such energy seemingly came from the blackish purple aura cloaking Hailagma, whose energy could've been used as the new energy supply, in fact too much for the remnants of the world survivors. So that they later altered their purpose for existing… from seeking to preserving, After the discovery of Hailagma, they tried to reach a term with the remaining nineteen countries to seal the huge energy and to isolate Zero Zone from the interference of others, and only their affiliation had the authority over the place. Ergo, on August 3, 3 ACE Eleven countries signed the deal, forming officially the Treaty of Pandora Protocol.

She is the sole survivor, discreetly living an unseen life as a commoner. But there are scars on her back that betray her origin, requiring her to cleanse herself in order to stay alive and unrecognised. With such reins attached to her race, it is impossible to find someone who would love her despite the dangers of her origin. But one night, when at the verge of being eaten by beasts, she is saved by a mysterious man from the grasp of death. Curiosity drives the damsel to chase love. Despite being downtrodden, she stumbles upon the opportunity meeting with high society by joining a Book Club run by the beautiful daughter of the Duke, Charlene Walterus. Amelia makes friendships with nobles and soon comes close to a romance with a man she suspects to be her secret rescuer, but is hopeless that his heart is far gone in the arms of the duke’s daughter. Will she win a wedding with the man of her dreams? But most importantly, will her fantasies of a perfect marriage come true? Or will she suffer a strained marital relationship, with unrequited feelings, far from the heart of the one she loves? Excerpt: That night, he was exhilarated to have married the woman of his desires. But Charlene had told him a bothersome fact about the origin of his newly wedded wife that he could not shake off his mind, for he knew she would have told him, had it been true. The tall man stepped into Amelia’s chamber and found her seated at the rim of the bed, blushing. The very sight of her innocent disposition had always brought him the insane urge to sweep her up in his arms and protect her. But before they would make love, there was an important question blaring at the edge of his mind. “Y-you’re here”, her soft voice was almost breathless. She rose to her feet, but rested against the wall, shy and nervous. “Amelia”, he tasted her name, drawing close to her. Tenderly placing a finger under her chin and lifting her face to meet his, he gazed into her eyes and asked, “Is it true that you are of the Celeste Clan?” There was silence in response and fear in her eyes. She did not deny it. A strong feeling of hurt enveloped his chest, when he realised that she was no different. Charlene’s words about her were not simply contemptuous lies of jealousy planted to his attention, but the raw truth. ~ Amelia gasped when he rammed his fist against the wall in the absolute pangs of frustration. It was like it burnt his senses to think that she would deliberately hold something as significant as her origin from him, regardless of all things of his secrets that he had shared with her, while they were yet secret lovers. She knew the fault was hers, but she had been too scared to relay, for she had loved him far too much to lose him. “Why did you hide this from me?” he breathed, voice cold and low and deadly, colored by his unpronounced rage. His face was dangerously close to hers, such that she could hear his very breath, seething. Tears began to pierce her eyes, threatening to fall. She had never meant to deceive him. But in that moment, she was afraid. Heart throbbing loud enough to be heard, her lips were quivering and she shivered. When his gaze swept down at her frightened disposition, there was a flicker of tenderness in his eyes. But it lasted not even as long as a moment’s worth. He was cold. He did not confront her for the secrets she was keeping, but silently withdrew himself. There were many things she wished to say in apology, but she could not find her voice. And by the time she could speak, he had left her chambers. Tears flurried down her face. She could not believe that her fears had ruined the very first day of her marriage. It was the day she had wished to divulge her secret to him, but it seemed like it had already been out.
