Geometric Mage: First Spell, Circle

Hey guys, if you Like the novel, do not forget to follow me on Instagram. All the characters of the novel are there. Would you like to see Torren's appearance? Go there! IG: geometric_mage --- “Hey monster, you're not ready for this blow, but I don't give a shit!!” said Lian as he drew a circle inside another circle in his mind. Then, a few seconds later, a fireball as big as a house hit a monster just over 4 meters tall... It was a waste of resources, but it was damn fun! “BOOM!!!” he said as the fireball reached the monster, covering it entirely. The excitement on his face was palpable as his clothes and hair fluttered from the power generated by the impact. [Accuracy: 97%] “Tsk, it's really hard to achieve 100% accuracy when casting spells... that just means I have to do better!” Meanwhile, the monster and the entire area around him was destroyed. The crater was huge, flames burned the ground, and ash mixed with dust covered the air. --- In a world full of Gates, Mages and Knights work together to defend humanity from extinction Lian, a boy from a small town, awakens a very... unique system. Casting spells by drawing strange shapes in his mind had become normal for him by now. Thanks to the system, he had become a Mage, a human capable of using mana to cast spells. Facing monsters from the Gates had become routine. Studying magic was a pastime. After all, he had the System, he didn't need to study classical magic. Or maybe not...

Another Typical S-Class Hunter

Sometimes, the worst part of a nightmare is thinking you woke up. Liana Graves was humanity's last shield. An S-Class Hunter wielding twin axes and impossible strength in a world already lost. She fought on ruins, buried allies, and watched as monsters consumed cities one by one. In the end, she stood alone. Until she woke up. Back in her childhood bedroom. Back to the warmth of her family, the scent of breakfast and a world untouched by monsters. Before the collapse, before chaos, before everything went wrong. It was a miracle. A second chance. And this time, she's not wasting it. Liana rises through the Hunter ranks faster and stronger than before because nothing will stop her from protecting the people she loves. But the more she fights, the more the cracks start to show as the world seems to bend too easily to her will. A battle ends too quickly. A relative miraculously comes back from the dead. We all love a classic S-Class power fantasy. But what if the arc is too perfect? Too easy? What if…the second chance was never real? After all, perception is a powerful thing. ______ Author's Note: This novel includes an African-American female protagonist and a slower-paced, character-focused take on the tower/system genre that isn't commonly found in these types of stories. I hope you enjoy reading and I'd love to hear your thoughts! Also I apologize for the lack of chapters as of late. I currently plan on writing more chapters and mass releasing them each week later on.

The Obsessive Male Lead Is Actually Scary

I used to think obsessive male leads were kind of hot. You know—the intense stares, the undying devotion, the way they’d burn the world for the woman they love? Swoon, right? Wrong. That fantasy went up in smoke the moment I woke up in the body of Sonia Mitford—the heroine of The Crimson Devotion, the first obsessive romance fantasy novel I ever read. The one that ended on a mysterious hiatus. The one with Marius Wittelsbach—a charming, possessive psychopath who thinks an ankle shackle is a love language. Now I’m trapped in a velvet-draped prison, shackled to a bedpost like some porcelain doll in a gothic fairytale. And Marius? He’s worse than I remembered. Sweet, soft-spoken... and utterly unhinged. "You don’t need to be afraid. I’ll take care of you." Translation: I’ll murder anyone who blinks in your direction and serve you tea over their corpse. "Anyone who bothers you... anyone who looks at you the wrong way... I’ll get rid of them for you." I thought I was playing the role just fine—smiling, nodding, pretending not to be horrified. But then—plot twist! Alessio Slovene, the forgettable side character, walks in looking like a golden retriever knight and drops this bomb: he’s actually the crown prince in disguise. And he’s investigating Marius. Finally—a lifeline. Maybe. Because people are vanishing. The body count is rising. And every time Marius kisses my forehead and calls me “Nia,” I feel one step closer to becoming the tragic heroine in a blood-soaked love story. Obsessive male leads aren’t dreamy. They’re terrifying. And I might be in way over my head.

Aetheric Design

In the crumbling, magic-forsaken empire of Veridia, where ancient cathedrals stand as skeletal monuments to a forgotten age, a clandestine war brews beneath the surface. Magic, once the lifeblood of the land, is now a forbidden whisper, hunted down by the zealous Inquisition. Yet, in the shadowed alleys and forgotten crypts, secret cults dedicated to the old ways thrive, their illicit rituals a desperate plea for power in a world stripped bare. Our protagonist, a young and resourceful smuggler, navigates this treacherous landscape, his survival dependent on his wits and his ability to slip through the cracks of imperial law. Drawn into the dangerous currents of Veridia's hidden magical underworld, he finds himself ensnared in a confrontation far grander and more perilous than any he has faced before. One fateful midnight, within the hallowed, decaying walls of a crumbling cathedral, he comes face-to-face with a high priestess of a forbidden cult. This encounter is not merely a clash of wills, but a collision of ideologies, a spark that threatens to ignite the smoldering embers of rebellion and expose the empire's deepest, darkest secrets. As the ancient stones bear witness, the smuggler must choose between self-preservation and a desperate gamble for a world yearning for the return of its lost magic. Key Themes: Forbidden Magic vs. Oppressive Authority Decay and Rebirth Survival and Rebellion The Allure and Danger of Power Moral Ambiguity Target Audience: Readers who enjoy atmospheric dark fantasy, gothic settings, and stories with complex moral dilemmas and high stakes.

The book of whisper

Title: The Book of Whispers Genre: Supernatural Horror / Dark Fantasy Tone: Raw, Atmospheric, Unnerving Synopsis: Lena Carter never wanted the book. Her estranged grandfather’s final package—a worn leather-bound volume titled The Book of Whispers—came with one instruction: "Burn it. Do not open it." She ignored him. From the moment she flipped it open, everything changed. The pages held death premonitions… in her handwriting. And when her coworker Jenna died exactly as described, Lena's world fractured. The book isn’t dead paper. It’s aware. And it’s chosen her to be its new Keeper. Now pursued by the skeletal figure called the Last Witness, Lena races to uncover the book’s dark lineage—tracing back to a 12th-century monk who sealed away a shadow deity within its pages. Every previous Keeper gave in, bartering lives to delay their own demise. Lena won’t surrender that easily—until the book begins warping the world around her. - People vanish or return... wrong. - Mirrors whisper secrets. - Her name appears in the margins—next to “deceased.” Her sole companion? Mira, an ex-Keeper who’s seen too much and still bears the scars. Together, they run to Romania, back to where it all began. But the more Lena uncovers, the darker the truth becomes: The curse didn’t start with the book. It runs through her veins. And the shadow god? It’s been waiting for her. --- Why This Will Haunt You: - Gothic Overtones: Forgotten monasteries, dripping walls, and a monster that lives in silence and glass. - Mind Games: Memory, identity, and time twist until Lena no longer knows who she is. - Hard Choices: Would you doom a stranger—or yourself—to live another day? - Unpredictable Turns: Just when the rules feel clear, the book turns them inside out.

It hears everything. ---
