In the grim future, genetically enhanced humans have evolved into a powerful new species—the Eldkin. Divided into several subspecies, the Eldkin are governed by a council of primarchs—each representing a distinct kintype—who maintain order within the Eldkin Cooperative, and defend it against alien threats. Wars are waged with devastating technology and the supernatural force of myst, a volatile energy fuelling powerful abilities. Meanwhile, ancient marvels known as Astralgates link every inhabited world together, alien or otherwise, for better or worse. In this chaotic universe, Damian Moroi, a Bloodkin and heir to a powerful Eldkin family, is as talented as he is ruthless—manipulative, ambitious, and all too aware of his own charm. But on his eighteenth birthday, revelations about his 'birth' and the genetic origins of Eldkin as a species shatter the life he thought he knew, forcing him to adapt to an uncertain new reality. Damian is forced to retreat for a while, but his ambition burns as brightly as ever. And he intends to satisfy it… on this planet and beyond. -------- This novel has none of the bad things, and all of the good things. Probably. There's no NTR or Yuri, and I've created a fantasy/sci-fi type story with new iterations of the classics. Come check it out.

Hazekaya was just an ordinary guy… until he woke up in another world. Sounds exciting, right? WRONG! Before he could even process his isekai moment, he found himself being chased by a horde of horny male orcs. From dodging unwanted "affections", to getting thrown in jail, to accidentally sleeping in horse crap and earning just enough to not starve. Between dealing with an ex-adventurer boss, getting tricked by his so-called "friends," and realizing even slimes are harder to kill than he thought, his life in this new world is anything but the overpowered adventure he dreamed of. Instead of becoming a hero, he’s stuck as a low-wage wall repairman, constantly broke, and now the locals call him "Shitman." With zero cheat skills, no legendary weapons, and a severe lack of dignity, Hazekaya is left wondering—"Why is my isekai life like this!?"

For centuries, werewolves and vampires have waged a bloody war, bound by an ancient curse that neither side can escape. And at the heart of it all—Celestine Valtora, the girl fated to break the cycle of destruction. She thought she was human. She was wrong. Hunted by both factions, Celestine discovers that her blood holds the power to awaken a force even darker than the war itself. The ruthless vampire king, Draven Dragovic, wants to use her to reclaim his throne, while the brooding alpha werewolf, Lucien Vale, will do anything to keep her from falling into the wrong hands—even if it means claiming her as his own. But fate is never kind. When Celestine’s past unravels and buried secrets come to light, she must make an impossible choice: surrender to destiny, or forge her own path in a world that wants to consume her. The blood moon is rising. And with it, the end of everything she once knew.

The world was meant to be in balance—life and death, gods and catastrophes. But when the King of Catastrophes defied the heavens and waged war, everything changed. Though humanity’s champions sealed him away, their victory was only temporary. Fifteen years ago, the seal shattered, and the demons returned to finish what they started. Kael was born into this broken world, but unlike the warriors and sorcerers who now fight for survival, he possesses no talent for magic or swordplay. To his father, that made him worthless. His mother on the other hand, never lost faith in her boy. Then, one fateful night, everything changed. When his drunken father turned his rage on his mother, Kael was powerless to stop him—until he wasn't. In an instant, he made a choice that could never be undone. With his father’s blood on his hands and his mother’s final words echoing in his mind, Kael is thrust onto a path he never asked for. The demons are rising. The world is on the brink of ruin. But he refuses to accept a world ruled by fear. With nothing left to lose, Kael makes a promise—to carve a future where humanity is no longer shackled by fate, where people are free to soar beyond the reach of tyranny

In the modern world, life was ordinary—until the gods grew bored. Without warning, entire nations were transported into an endless dungeon, a twisted experiment created by divine beings. Unlike traditional dungeons, the strongest monsters lurk on the upper floors, while the weakest crawl in the abyss below. And humanity? They were dropped at the very bottom. To survive, every person was granted an ability. Some became warriors, others fell to despair. But for Kaito Arakawa, his ability was useless. Ability Combination—the power to merge skills into something new. But with no skills to begin with, he was nothing more than a dead man walking. Until he discovered a hidden ruin—a trial meant for no one. Through suffering, blood, and endless battles, he clawed his way to power. And when he emerged, he was no longer weak. Now, he hunts the Rulers of the Dungeon, powerful beings that govern the floors. The gods are watching. The dungeon is shifting. And as nations wage war in the depths, Kaito walks his own path—one carved in strength, blood, and defiance. Because in a world ruled by gods, the only way to win is to become something greater.

After the betrayal of Luciferel, and having to deal with the Nephilim problem God made a few changes to how Heaven was run. Time does not quite flow the same in Heaven, so God was able to draw inspiration from millennia of human history. In the end, God chooses to structure things like a mega-corporation with him as the CEO and his archangels acting as department heads. To keep the threat of another angel rebellion to a minimum, every few years the angels would be ordered to change departments. To ensure that things ran smoothly and that the communication between departments happened in a timely fashion a Heaven-wide internet was established called Godnet. Due to an accident caused by mistaken identity, John Smith was killed by an angel on her first day in the Department of Death. By the time she released her mistake, it was far too late to "just" put him back in his own body. In an effort to correct her mistake the angel tried to have John Smith be reborn in the universe she originally was supposed to have a John Smith die in. The Angel was originally in IT for Godnet so she thought that it would be not too difficult to hide her little oops by altering a few records. However, she got a call from Upper Management during the process of having John be reborn. Figuring the " proper" department would step in to finish the process, the angel left to report to upper management, not wanting to receive an even bigger punishment than what she was already going to receive. In her rush to leave, she forgot to close down the connection to Godnet.

She had been feared as the Queen of Witches for her unmatched power—until the day the werewolves of the Eon Realm waged war against her kingdom. Defeated, she had barely escaped with her life, only to awaken in the body of a powerless werewolf and an outcast. Trapped among her enemies, including the very werewolf who had led the attack on her kingdom. Between her vengeance and survival, she navigated the dangerous world of werewolf politics, struggled to rediscover her powers, and confronted the Alpha’s son.

This modern world was once ruled by elemental forces and primal creatures, but the balance of power has long since shattered. Vampires, Werewolves, Demons, and Humans—each race has carved its own legacy, yet none remain untouched by the tides of war and betrayal. Once, these factions waged battles that scorched the land and stained history with blood. Now, the war has faded into myth, and a fragile peace clings to existence like a dying ember. But peace was never meant to last. A kingdom watches with unease as old wounds fester beneath the surface, as forbidden ties between predator and prey threaten to upend everything. Whispers of rebellion stir in the streets, ancient forces awaken in the shadows, and a forgotten prophecy looms on the horizon. Amidst this brewing storm, a child is born—a being who is the product of two worlds. A hybrid of Vampire and Human, he stands as a symbol of opposing forces intertwined. His existence alone is enough to ignite fury, to challenge the natural order, and to become the spark that could either unite the fractured lands or set them ablaze once more. Secrets buried deep in history will rise. Loyalties will be tested. And in the end, only one truth remains: Power is the only law, and those without it will be devoured. What happens when the past refuses to stay buried? When the sins of old return to claim their debt? This is not a fairy tale. This is the truth they wanted forgotten. Welcome to The Secrets of Chiaroscuro.

After losing her job, Wan Qian unexpectedly inherits the estate of an distant great-uncle—a remote countryside farm. She originally thought she could enjoy a leisurely rural life, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, she soon discovers that the farm is unbelievably strange—animals on the farm produce crops, whispers rustle from the wardrobe at midnight, and what flows from the faucet is not clear water but thick red liquid… Even more absurd, interns who come to work always mysteriously "resign," leaving only a calm and composed butler who hands her a new labor contract with a smile every day. Faced with all this, Wan Qian optimistically rolls up her sleeves: "Alright then, running a farm isn't easy. I have to find a way to turn a profit." So, using outrageous workplace logic and farm management experience, she tames an eldritch god into a guard dog, hires a midnight butcher as a chef, and even enlists a faceless girl as an accountant… While others tremble in fear, she leisurely patrols the farmland: "No slacking off! If performance targets aren't met, your wages will be docked." Thus, a farm where "humans and ghosts and monsters" beings coexist is officially open for business! —Horror? Not at all. With the right job assignments, every ghost and monster can be a model corporate worker!

(WSA 2025 ENTRY) Ed Warren is a young student studying to become a monk at the Franciscan Monastery Order. But just like most boys his age from low income families such as his, his reasons for joining the monastery stemed not from the desire to devout to study the divine mysteries, but to quench his hunger from the lavish foods served to the students from the donations of wealthy families and individuals renouncing worldly riches and desires. One day, Ed Warren's life takes a spiral turn when the possessed daughter of a wealthy monarch gets possessed by a malevolent demon and all the other students are sent back home for her exorcism to take place, but under the guise of a demon invasion; demons Ed himself hadn't seen. Vilified after being caught for disobeying rules, Ed Warren returns home to find his childhood crush, Lorraine Blai, in a sinful position with his grandfather who supposedly died and was buried decades ago. Confusion settles in and Ed's curiosity lands him in a portal where he discovers his insane demonic powers and along the way finds out a war was being waged by death against Hades and the demons, in preparation for the apocalypse.

Left for dead and armed only with an ancient System-bound amulet, Arlan embarks on a desperate mission to rescue the last of his family from a demonic conspiracy that threatens the entire kingdom.

In a future where Earth has reached the peak of its technological prowess—9 billion years old, a utopia of yocto-technology, quantum mastery, and cosmic augmentation—humanity has transcended limits once thought impossible. Yet, even with all their advancements, they stand powerless against the inevitable—the collision of the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, a cosmic catastrophe sealing the fate of Earth and all who call it home.

Yet, when destruction came, he was not granted death, but something far worse—an eternity in the 18 Levels of Hell. Trapped in a realm beyond time, where souls are cleansed without mercy, Haki endured untold torment for an infinite millions of years. His agony became his teacher. His suffering, his forge. And from the abyss, something awakened—a fusion of AI and soul, science and spirit, technology and cultivation. Now reborn in a world ruled by Qi, formations, and divine laws, Haki is no mere cultivator. He is the final vessel of Gray, the force that stands between existence and nonexistence, chaos and order. Armed with the forbidden knowledge of a civilization that once defied the universe itself, he walks a path, known or unknown, definitely dreaded—the path of INFINITY. When light and darkness collide, when "gods" and "demons" wage war, only one truth remains: Infinity knows no limits.
