Machines Like Me A

They're Not Like Us

In a world shattered by humanity's own ambition, survival comes at a cost. Decades ago, experiments to create bioengineered soldiers spiraled out of control, fusing alien DNA with human genetics. The result was The Others—monstrous beings that decimated the human population, driving the survivors into hiding. Leah Carter is one of those survivors, struggling to find her place in a fractured group that includes Elias, her unwavering ally; Thompson, a man haunted by the past; Jonah, whose fear breeds mistrust; and Maren, whose quiet strength hides a mysterious past. When a revelation about The Others' origins emerges, Leah discovers a disturbing connection to the creatures—one that could either save humanity or doom it. As the group searches for a long-abandoned military research facility rumored to hold the key to defeating The Others, Leah faces a growing divide within her team. Jonah’s suspicion and the group's unease threaten to tear them apart just when they need each other most. Amidst the chaos, Leah uncovers a shocking ability to communicate with The Others, forcing her to confront the possibility that she may be more connected to the enemy than she ever imagined. With the weight of humanity’s survival on her shoulders, Leah must navigate betrayal, fear, and her own inner turmoil. Can she and her group uncover the truth and find a way to fight back against The Others before it’s too late? Or will humanity’s final hope crumble under the weight of secrets and mistrust? "They Are Not Like Us" is a gripping apocalyptic thriller that explores the fragile bonds of trust, the cost of survival, and the enduring question: What makes us human?

How Did a Commoner Like Me End Up in a Royal Academy?! (Blame My Aunt)

Rein Aster is just a scary-looking commoner who wants a peaceful life. Unfortunately, life has other plans. Thanks to a clerical error (or maybe divine mischief), he’s accidentally enrolled in Astrelia Royal Academy—a prestigious institution meant only for nobles of pure bloodlines. His presence alone is a scandal, and the academy’s elite students demand his immediate expulsion. But there’s just one problem: Rein is an absolute monster in combat. Having been raised and trained by his terrifying aunt, Lilith Aster, a so-called "Demon Lord" (who’s actually a legendary hero), Rein endured years of brutal training disguised as "character-building exercises." Now, thanks to that hellish upbringing, he’s: Unfazed by deadly magic, casually walking off spells that would cripple knights. A natural-born warrior, wielding weapons like an extension of his own body. So desensitized to pain that academy duels feel like a relaxing pastime. At first, the noble factions try to crush him. Instead, he crushes their expectations. Celestia von Ardentia, the prideful high elf princess, sees him as a brute—until she realizes his strength is beyond noble superiority. Eleanor du Rosette, the cold and calculating half-dragon, suspects Rein is no mere commoner and sets out to uncover his secrets. Lilia von Helios, the mischievous fox girl, finds him endlessly amusing and attaches herself to him for entertainment. Seraphina Nachtwald, the feared dark elf villainess, is shocked when Rein doesn’t flinch at her intimidation tactics—and starts shadowing him instead. As Rein unwittingly shakes up the entire academy, dark forces begin to stir. An underground faction sees him as a threat, and assassins are sent to eliminate him. Too bad Rein just assumes they’re part of a particularly intense training exercise. And just when the academy reaches peak chaos, the truth is revealed: Rein Aster isn’t just any commoner. He’s the nephew of the strongest hero in history. His reaction? "Wait… my aunt was a hero?! I thought she was just a crazy old lady!" A ridiculous fantasy romcom harem where the overpowered commoner just wants a quiet life—but accidentally conquers the royal academy instead!

The Saint Likes Me, But I’m Screwed… [Rewrite]

A/N: I don't do a lot of hand-holding, so you have to figure out the subtle and not-so-subtle stuff. Good luck. One early spring day, Alum and his classmates fell victim to a spatial quake—descending to Lethren—the strongest line of defense. The students gained magical abilities—not to be heroes, but just because it was expected. Even with the supernatural, Alum seemed aloof but more mellow—his world hadn’t changed, but the same couldn’t be said for those around him. However… that changed—he fell in love with a Saint at first sight. Saint Amethely, despite being new to the role, is loved by everyone. She is sweet, caring, and elegant but has to carry the grand legacy of her Grandmother, the previous Saint. Despite that, she was still a shy girl, slightly clumsy, with no romance experience. But only a few knew of her awkward side. So how could he make an elegant Imperial Saint fall for him…? He, who in this world was but a nobody? There were a few options—become recognizable. Except… the shy girl Amethely had already fallen in love at first sight—Alum being the culprit. An aloof youth whose world changed and an elegant Imperial Saint, how would their love blossom? But… change was never easy for someone like him. Whichever world—his was never kind. Even in this beautiful and vibrant world—incredible magic beasts and abominations were cruel and unyielding. Schedule: weekend or either Mon/Wed

Chronicles of Magic and machine

“A world of magic, a mind of machine—one destiny to change them all.” In a world where magic and technology have become intertwined, power is everything. At the age of ten, every child undergoes the Awakening—a moment when their magical abilities are revealed. For Kael, however, the Awakening is different. Instead of the rush of magic that others feel, his body is flooded with a cold, calculating hum—the activation of an AI. But this AI is not just a tool. It is a mentor, holding secrets, mysteries, and perhaps the key to understanding the very world Kael lives in. As Kael grapples with the nature of his connection to this ancient entity, he begins to uncover not only the depth of its knowledge but also the potential within himself. Driven by an insatiable curiosity, Kael dives deeper into the mysteries of both magic and machine. His desire for knowledge becomes a guiding force, but it also leads him into dangerous territories, forcing him to question everything he thought he knew about his world. Kael is not alone in his quest. A rival—someone with knowledge of a past life—emerges, and their paths collide in ways neither could have anticipated. The rival’s motives are unclear, but their rivalry will push Kael to his limits. As Kael grows stronger, his bond with the AI deepens, and the stakes rise. An unseen force threatens everything—something bigger than magic, bigger than technology. A force that neither Kael nor his rival can fully comprehend. Can Kael navigate this perilous world, grow beyond his limits, and rise to a challenge he never expected? The journey will shape him, the AI, and the very fate of their world

Spoil me a Little

She's not deaf, not dumb; she can speak and even laugh. But what's the usefulness of talking when you can't explain your pain to people? What is the usefulness of smiling and laughing when you will later cry? Jean was a very beautiful and cheerful young girl, but she lost her mother at the age of nine. Instead of her father focusing on her and helping her forget the pain of the death of her mother, he went ahead and brought in his wife and children. Little Jean just wanted attention, trying to gain her father's love, but all her efforts were ruthlessly washed away. She regretted not having a mother and wished for her mother to not have died. She grew up alone, with no one to speak to and no one to make her laugh. Slowly, she started forgetting how to smile and how to speak; she even forgot how to show her expressions and emotions. She was a beautiful young woman with smooth skin that glowed like a doll. When she could smile, speak, and show emotions like a normal human, she wasn't the center of attention. But when she lost all these important elements of human life, it became easy to mistake her for a doll. The worst part was that even though people believed she was a doll, some perverts still wanted to take advantage of her. Just because she was now emotionless and had forgotten how to smile and speak, they thought they could exploit her. Oops! Don't be deceived by her angelic, doll-like appearance. She had lost all emotions and feelings not for them to take advantage of her; she was, in fact, a killing god. "Don't claim that! If it weren't for his timely intervention, that ugly Man would have been dead by now. But anyway, I will still go back to him; I won't leave him be until he's dead!" That was the letter she penned. "Jean do you want this store? just nod and it's yours" "the restaurant serve her the wrong food, Lock it immediately!" "Jean this is all my years property, please sign it, it's yours"
