Only One Life A

What would you do if you woke up on a throne with no memory of your past life, only darkness feasting on your soul and cold creeping into your bones? You begin to see a person in visions and realize it is yourself, but the figure in these memories is a nightmare. A philosophical tale exploring the curse of emptiness and eternity, leading to an unimaginable hatred for what thrives beyond the shadows. Born from darkness and devoid of memories, a being embarks on a quest to uncover its origins. But as the journey unfolds, the pursuit of forgotten truths only deepens its sense of emptiness. Corrupted by the very answers it seeks, the being becomes the very entity from its memories—lost, hollow, and bound by the relentless cycle of its own existence.

Humanity’s immortal path has been severed. Absorbing spiritual energy directly was no longer an option. While humans despaired, ghosts thrived. With their connection to the other side, they grew stronger by the day, turning humans into nothing more than prey and livestock. But to every rule, there is an exception. "That’s why, my son, if you ever see the man with the straw hat… run as fast as you can." — Mamma Ghost. "But Mommy… aren’t humans weak? Aren’t they just our food?" — Ghost Boy. Mamma Ghost sighed, looking at her fatherless son with pity. "Ah, child… your father thought the same." Feng Fan never wanted this life. He never asked for this mission. But fate had other plans. Witness his journey as he ascends to immortality and restores humanity’s lost Dao. “In this universe, there is no ghost I can’t seal!” #tsundere #transmigration #r18 #no-harem #comedy #horror — This is my WSA 2025 entry, thank you for all your support!

In a shattered world where ancient dungeons emit magic energy, powerful warlords vie for dominance, and the air crackles with old curses, Xiaoya Feng walks a treacherous line between destruction and godhood. Orphaned at the age of twelve when mercenaries burned her village, Xiaoya holds on to two legacies from her dying mother: a jade pendant in the form of a crescent moon that reminds her to survive at all costs. . . . Xiaoya (age 15); "Mama, please get up! We have to run!" Her small hands shake as she presses on the wound in her mother's chest, the warm stickiness spreading through her fingers. The earth shakes; Another explosion? Mercenaries? Demons? She didn't look. Li Feng choked her blood. "Listen… Xiao-ya. The strong… they do not triumph. The clever do. You… survive. Promise me." A cough cuts into her words. Blood splatters across Xiaoya's cheeks. Xiaoya Feng Cried. "I-I'll carry you! There's a healer in the next valley—" "No." Li Feng's fingers wrap around Xiaoya's wrist, cold as winter steel. "Take the pendant. Hide it. Let them see you as weak… until you strike back." The jade glimmers in the firelight, its edges razor-sharp enough to draw blood. Xiaoya's tears dry upon contact with the burned earth. Li Feng whispered in a low voice. "Live. Not just… survive. Live. Find joy. Promise—" The hand goes slack as she dies. Far away, a man laughs which was like a deep, greasy sound as footsteps close in on the hut. Xiaoya Feng didn't not moved. She does not breathe. Her mother's eyes look past her, and flames dance in them like wicked spirits. 'Survive.' She threads the pendant's chain around her neck. It burns her skin. 'Live.' A shadow falls in the doorway: a mercenary captain, his armor shining with borrowed trinkets. Xiaoya does not beg or scream. She looks him in the eye and allows her voice to shake, becoming the frightened child she is meant to be. Xiaoya Feng whispered. "P-please… don't hurt me." The captain smiles broadly, sheathing his sword. "Aww, little rabbit. I'll make it qui-" Her fingers wrap around the dagger concealed in her mother's sash. Strike! Present Day (Whispered Memory): Xiaoya touches the pendant at her throat, its edge still sharp. Survive. Live. These orders war within her heart as she gazes into the emptiness of a dungeon, its darkness resonating with promises of power… and destruction. "Ordinary," she says as she readjusted her herb-gatherer's cloak. "Just an ordinary day." The lie burns like ashes. But lies, like daggers, cut the deepest when they go unnoticed. -- P.S - Romance? I don't think I will add this element but if I do then not much... Romance isn't my first priority.

What happens when you die? It's a question almost everyone has asked themselves at least once in their life. Do we have souls? If so, where do they go once our bodies are too tired to go on? Does being a good person really make a difference in what happens to your soul? Turns out, it really does. After sacrificing himself for a random stranger that vaguely reminds him of his sister, Zero finds out that not only are Reapers responsible for human souls once they're ready to move on, but he has officially met the requirements to become one. Immortality and a stronger than steel body sound nice, but all things come at a price. And this cost, is by no means cheap.

Souta Tachibana wakes up to his worst nightmare—he's been reincarnated as the arrogant rich villain of a bottom-tier harem anime. His fate?

But the universe isn't giving him a choice. The tsundere swordswoman challenges him to duels over the smallest misunderstandings. The yandere idol keeps poisoning his tea, then acting shocked when he doesn’t die. His shy childhood friend keeps trying to confess something, but gets interrupted by cherry blossom petals every time. And the so-called "hero" of this world?

If he doesn’t find a way to break free from this ridiculous script, he’ll be doomed to play the disposable villain forever. It’s time to outsmart the plot, expose the protagonist, and hijack this stupid harem story before it destroys him.
