Canopy

After transmigrating into the body of an orphaned refugee, Zhang Wanqing finds herself in a feudal society with no golden finger or grand system to rely on. Gritting her teeth, she moves into a decrepit temple and picks up a hoe and shovel, vowing to survive against all odds. She clears wasteland for farming, raises livestock and poultry, and even brings back a wolf cub from the mountains to raise. Eventually, she manages to scrape by. Later, the perfumes she creates take the markets of Luzhou by storm, and everyone respectfully addresses her as “Boss Zhang.” Despite her success, Zhang Wanqing never forgets her roots. She promotes agriculture, builds schools, and provides relief to refugees, earning widespread praise and admiration. But what should she do about the handsome yet silly young man who follows her around like a loyal puppy during her daily tasks? When she hoes the ground, he fetches water. When she feeds the chickens, he herds the sheep—seemingly oblivious to the mud dirtying his elegant azure silk robes. “Suhan Shan, the fields aren’t plowed yet—what’s the point of watering them?” Zhang Wanqing finally questions him, her bright almond eyes glaring in exasperation. The bashful young man blushes, scratching his head and apologizing, “Mother said the soil must be moist for plowing to go smoothly!” At first, it seemed like a perfectly ordinary remark. But Zhang Wanqing is suddenly reminded of the shadows and whispers beneath the red canopy last night. Her face flushes crimson, and she tosses her farming tools aside, fleeing into the house. Behind her, the silly young man stands in the garden, scratching his head in confusion.

In this cyberpunk metropolis world, Black Cores, also known as Dark Light, Those who are unfortunate enough to be touched by these cores undergo a horrifying transformation. Augmented individuals—those with cybernetic enhancements—become berserkers, losing their sanity and gaining dark, demonic abilities. They roam the city as avatars of destruction, spreading fear and chaos. White Cores* or *False Light* Those who come into contact with these radiant cores transform into *Radiant Beings*. They chant hymns and mantras about light and purity, but their true purpose is far more sinister. These beings are drawn to Jaede, our protagonist, and will stop at nothing to consume him, killing anyone in their path. Their chants are hypnotic, often luring unsuspecting victims into their deadly embrace. The *Red Cores* or *Beast Light* that fall from its canopy bestow a primal fury upon those who merge with them. Augmented individuals become *Beast-like Beings*, merging with the essence of ancient, monstrous creatures. These beings possess incredible strength and ferocity, turning parts of the cities into hunting grounds where only the fittest survive. Yeah you know the deal. Our augmented overpowered human protagonist Jaede, who successfully harnessed the power of the Black Core and Red core fully, gets shunned by everyone and the CyberHunter association for having the Devil’s Core in his body. But he keeps trying to be a CyberHunter, even doing their missions to get accepted by them. The CyberHunter association takes down those who are merged with the Black, White, or Red Cores, as they are already dead inside. As Jaede continues his journey of trying to impress them, the more he gets involved in, the more blood is shed, the more dark secrets unveiled, the more enemies and supposed allies appear, and even a love interest, the more he realizes he maybeeee needs to start taking things seriously. So what if he’s overpowered?

The morning sun filtered through the dense canopy of ancient trees that bordered the small town of Riversend, casting dappled shadows across the cobblestone streets. The air was cool and crisp, filled with the sounds of chirping birds and the gentle murmur of the nearby river. Riversend was a quaint settlement nestled on the edge of the enchanted forest of Sylvanor, known for its serene beauty and its vibrant market that thrived each morning. In the heart of the town, the aroma of freshly baked bread and sizzling sausages wafted from the bustling marketplace. Vendors called out their wares, and townsfolk moved about with a relaxed ease, their conversations blending into a harmonious hum of everyday life. Amidst this picturesque scene, a figure moved with an unusual blend of nonchalance and purpose. read to find out more

Despite being a woman, Marna no longer cared about gender boundaries or physical strength. The nine bodies had to be buried that day, as they had been left in her house for more than two nights. Feeling sufficiently exhausted, Marna took a length of raffia rope. She dragged Bahrun's body, which was stiff and completely helpless. His gruesome condition, lacking genitals and starting to decompose, was visible. Marna dragged him by looping her arms under his armpits and pulling with all her strength to get the body out through the door. After dragging Bahrun to the front porch, Marna went back inside and pulled Dadau's body, which had similar injuries to Bahrun's. Marna knew that all those people were from Kasongan City, especially Bahrun. She recognized him when she saw his photo displayed with his extended family in a single frame on the wall near the reception desk of the boarding house. One by one, Marna successfully removed the bodies from her house, but her task was not yet complete. She contemplated how to get the nine bodies down the 1.5-meter-high stairs. Besides being difficult, carrying them was too heavy for her strength as a woman. Exhausted, Marna sat down and stared at the nine bodies. Sweat continued to pour down from her forehead and neck. She took a drink from a 1-liter bottle of water. The most extreme method she considered was dropping the bodies down. It seemed like the easiest way at the moment. However, the risk was substantial. The bodies, in the process of decomposition, would likely break apart and not remain intact. But this was the only method Marna could use. Starting with Rawen's body, Marna kicked the large man, causing him to roll and fall to the ground. Crash! The sound of the body hitting the ground made Marna close her eyes, as Rawen's arms and legs visibly separated from his body. Feeling a sense of horror, Marna pushed Dadau's body next. The same thing happened to Dadau's corpse. Marna continued with the remaining bodies, and eventually, all nine were on the ground. She dragged each lifeless body to the grave pit. Despite her exhaustion, Marna did not consider stopping, even for a moment. The intense midday sun could not penetrate the dense forest canopy, so her pale skin remained unburned by the sun's heat. The nine bodies, some of which were dismembered, were now in the same grave pit. Marna proceeded with the next step, covering the pit with soil.

Shen Tang woke up on the exile road and found this world very unscientific. Heavenly stones fell, triggering strife among nations. Words solidified into reality, thoughts became tangible. Martial prowess gathered, mountains split and seas parted. What she once perceived as a mere pretty face, with a mere utterance of "leaping over spears and horses," transformed into a fully-armored warrior, spear in hand, capable of standing alone against thousands! The consumptive wretches in her eyes, muttering "constellations scattered like chess pieces," reshaped the sky into a domed canopy and the land into a chessboard, effortlessly maneuvering troops into formation! This, by all means, couldn't be deemed unscientific anymore! It seemed like the scientific coffin lid had been nailed shut by theology! And she— "My lord, there's a severe drought in the Northern County. Would you shed a tear?" Shen Tang: "..." "My lord, the Southern Province is flooded. Would you share a smile?" Shen Tang: "..." ———————— Looking at the ten bowls of rice she devoured, the pockets cleaner than her face, and a group of villagers clamoring for attention, seemingly reincarnated food barrels, the real artist of souls, Village Chief Shen Tang, reluctantly abandoned her beloved paintbrush and was forced onto the road of vying for lordship.

In thе hеart of a moonlit forеst, whеrе shadows dancеd among thе trееs and a haunting brееzе whispеrеd sеcrеts, Elara stirrеd. Hеr еyеs flickеrеd opеn, grееtеd by thе shimmеring light of thе full moon that hung high abovе thе canopy. Confusion cloudеd hеr mind, a hazе of disoriеntation that clung to hеr likе a fog. As shе triеd to sit up, a burning thirst gnawеd at hеr throat, a sеnsation unlikе any shе had еvеr еxpеriеncеd. Panic grippеd hеr as hеr surroundings camе into focus; thе trееs sееmеd tallеr, thе rustling lеavеs crispеr, and hеr sеnsеs morе acutе. Somеthing had changed in hеr, somеthing bеyond hеr comprеhеnsion. A mirror-likе pond nеarby bеckonеd to hеr, rеflеcting thе moon's еthеrеal glow. Elara staggеrеd to hеr fееt, еvеry movеmеnt fееling both forеign and oddly gracеful. Shе stumblеd to thе watеr's еdgе and pееrеd into hеr rеflеction, only to gasp at thе facе staring back at hеr. Hеr fеaturеs wеrе morе dеfinеd, hеr еyеs a shadе darkеr, and an air of othеrworldly bеauty surrounding hеr. Thе rеalization hit hеr likе a bolt of lightning – shе was no longer human. Thе word еchoеd in hеr mind: a vampirе. It was a chilling thought, a crеaturе of myth and tеrror. But it еxplainеd thе thirst that clawеd at hеr insidеs, thе yеarning for somеthing shе couldn't quitе namе.

My eyes opened slowly, the place was dark. I hardly saw the setting sun, my face was covered with dry blood from my wounded forehead. I sat upright gently holding my chest. my forehead and the core of my heart pains like hell. Well, am I dead yet? I wasn't in a stinky tomb anymore but in a dark forest with tall trees canopying the place. I hardly see anything in the dim light, the smell of slimy rain forest mixed with the blood filled my nose. I saw something sparking in darkness, like sparks of fire, staring closely I observed and saw burning red eyes staring at me in darkness from a distance, all the pain vanished at that instant. All my brain came up with is to run my stupid butt from that thing, that monster? Uttering a prayer under my breath I jolted through the pathless gloomy forest with blood blurring my sight, going as fast as my legs could, tripping over roots, my feet tangled in tree veins, I pitched forward but landed flat on the ground, sliding through the damp leaves and hitting my head with tree root, making my wounded forehead bleed more, and my left cheek burns where I scraped the ground, Hot tears threatening to fall from my eyes. I felt a very strong presence of negative energy around me … as if someone was following me, I pushed myself back on my feet. And half ran, half stumbled my way out of the dark forest. I feel the sheer rush of hope at the sight of the stone steps that lead to the garden of my house. The burst of adrenaline propelled my legs faster and I followed the stairs climbing as I ran.  I ran, putting pressure on the oozing wound on my forehead with my left hand and ran until I was in my garden. I was no longer in the gloomy forest, there was no sign of the monster? Demon? Whatever that thing was, wasn't here anymore, I'm safe now, exhaling deeply, I feel relieved now but every part of me aches. I started drizzling and came falling down, with my face covered in blood. Two strong arms grabbed hold of me, before I reached the ground, the thing I saw last was two honeyed eyes staring into mine full of worries before my eyes closed.   These eyes look familiar ... Who do these honeyed eyes belong to?

In a world where the stars themselves bestow power, the heavens have been shattered. Once whole and luminous, the celestial canopy now hangs broken, its pieces scattered across the mortal realm. The constellations—embodiments of strength, wisdom, and magic—lie in fragments, their power unleashed to the world below. What was meant to guide and protect now threatens to tear the world apart. The calamity was the work of Orion the Skybreaker, a celestial turned rogue. In his hunger for ultimate power, Orion shattered the heavens, breaking the constellations. Fragments rained upon the mortal world, granting unimaginable abilities to those who found them. But the power is wild and dangerous, corrupting those unworthy of wielding it.

Or will he be consumed by the very power he seeks to restore? The journey to heal the shattered sky begins here—a tale of courage, betrayal, and the boundless hope that lies within even the smallest spark of light.

Support is innately the dullest role in any genre of game, it's the last thing competitive players will touch or pick, especially in ranked matches. Some chose to support out of obligation for their brainless teammates auto-locking their mains, while others were too weak and were compelled to accept the position; except for one player who embraced every second of his role. Fargil is the Top Support Player whose name appeared on Arkmeria Conquer Online's leaderboard (ACO). He earned and cultivated his support skills, something not a single soul dared to put their limited status points, yet he did regardless. But on the day of Fargil's final tournament match, he logged in, and to his astonishment, he reincarnated in the world of ACO as an Ancient Tree, which even the Top Support had not anticipated. He can't speak or move, but he stood tall and still in the earthen soil for years until a fated arrival transpired. "Someone! Anyone! Please help me...!" cried a wounded woman, and Fargil answered. "No one gets hurt under the canopy of my crown!" Fargil's instinct as a support player awoke his origin, shaking the world's surface and uncovering a graceful man brimming with nature's elegance and pride.

In a world where an Iron Empire stretches across a continent there is a land on the other side of the great sea. A land where fae queens sit on thrones of glass and gold, and the faeries dance through the forests. A land where little folk live underfoot and sprites flit about the canopy. Where the things that go bump in the night wander and trees can grow beneath mountains. Come to a land where legends are made flesh, come to Dianais and see what awaits you. Watch as the three lost queens, heirs to an ancient power, are thrown out of their lives and onto the path that leads home. Cinis Sarnifease, the King's blade has been a hunter for so long, but when someone from her past takes off her mask she is forced to confront the life she ignored. Lily Crescentre has been living in a brothel for ten years, but when her madame decides that she needs money for rent and sells Lily as a slave to the mines Lily is shown the plight of the world that was stolen from her. Elexis Hynopae, leader of the rebellion against Galcinar, and a Queen of Altoness, the summoner of the tides and storms, has discovered that her sister previously thought to be held captive might in fact be someone entirely different, now she is forced to take action to save someone she thought she wanted dead.
