Top Hard Boiled

Ahmet's laughter was like a slap in the face. "You think you're in a position to negotiate with me?" he sneered. "I don't think so, Asli. You'll do what I say, or suffer the consequences. Do you want more time to outsmart me? No.” She could play his game. She certainly could do that before she finally killed him. A mischievous grin formed on her lips. "What would you gain from sleeping with me?" she asked, trying to keep her tone neutral. "You're not exactly known for your romantic conquests. And we're rivals, not to mention the fact that our families would kill us if they found out." She paused, her eyes narrowing. "So, what's the real motive here? What could you possibly gain from this?" There was a pause on the other end of the line, and for a moment, Asli wondered if she had caught him off guard. But then, Ahmet's smooth voice came back, dripping with confidence. "I’m glad to know you are well-informed about my romantic conquests. Let's just say, Asli, that I have my reasons. And as for what I'd gain… well, that's for me to know and you to find out." His tone sent a shiver down her spine, and she knew she had to tread carefully. She wasn’t going to win this against him. “Show me what proof you have and I will give in to your demands.” With that, she hung up the call, feeling a small sense of satisfaction at being the one to end the conversation this time. She was the only woman in the male-dominated Mafia world. Did he think he could subdue her so easily?

And ten years later he's a university student, dormmates with his best friend and is just about to finish getting his degrees. He'd also just finished playing the third installment in a his favorite video game franchise All was going well in life, things were looking up until in one cruel twist it was over, no fanfare, no "going out with a bang", Kazuki's life just fizzled out like a candle in the wind.

(This is not a normal cultivation novel. It will have fantasy elements but after 100 chapters.) Roy’s journey began in tragedy. As a newborn, he was separated from his parents, left in a small village for his safety. Raised by the kind-hearted villagers, his life seemed peaceful for a time. But when Roy was just three years old, the Demonic Blood Sect descended upon the village, massacring its inhabitants and abducting the children. Roy was one of the few taken, thrust into a life of cruelty and slavery. For years, Roy endured the horrors of the sect, clinging to fleeting memories of his parents and the whispers of their love. At nine, he managed to escape, driven by an unyielding will to survive. In his desperate flight, he stumbled upon a mystical cavern, where he encountered the Heavenly Monarch. Recognizing Roy’s potential, the ancient entity gifted him the Heavenly Origin Qi Technique, one of the most powerful cultivation methods known. With this newfound power, Roy vowed to grow stronger, to search for his parents—if they still lived—or to avenge them if they did not. Journey to the Top: The Path of Power is a tale of resilience, vengeance, and unyielding determination. With intense battles, intricate world-building, and heartfelt character growth, the story delves into themes of sacrifice, loyalty, and the cost of power. Roy’s journey is one of survival, redemption, and the relentless pursuit of strength to protect those he holds dear. Will he reach the pinnacle of cultivation, or will the shadows of his past consume him? -------------- This is my first book and I will make some mistakes but I will strive to improve on them. Here are few things that you can expect from this novel. 1. No Cliche Young Masters -- I mean there can be one or two but the story wont be filled with them 2. Little to No Plot Holes / Armour -- But there will times when the MC will be lucky (without that the story can not even start) 3. Detailed power structure -- The power structure and everything related will be detailed. The power structure might seem generic at the start but it will show its uniqueness later on in the story. 4. I do not intend to drop this story. I already have a long story plot in mind.

This wasn't my first VR game, but as always, I sucked. My favorite kind of ways to play was a meaty mage with high damage and favorably both high MP and HP regeneration. But while I tried to create this type of Avatar, l had no luck yet again. This game was way too hard! It was also almost impossible to level up like this and I died countless times. Also...I was basically an social inept and unble to perform well in a party or any other kind of group. I had too less talent to get stronger as fast as other players and the painfully low possibilities of my potential often sent me to the brink of my inner abyss. Still, I loved playing this game and kept on playing anyway. Until one day, my peace and serenity were broken by the undercurrents and remnants of political struggle in the city I resided. Forced to join the ruthless leader of the black market I had to let go of everything that hindered me to grow stronger. To find my oppressors who bullied, stole from me and made me wish to leave this game behind. On my way to revenge, my class was upgraded to a branch class of mage, - illusionist. Fit for my style of madness and an concealed weapon against my enemies. And this made me let loose of anything reining myself back. - "So, you said you were an illusionist. Do you already know what your class is able to do or shall I explain it to you?" The class instructor asked. "I can make weak hallucinations and cute phantasms." "..." he held the bridge of his nose. "You got to choose between scary and cute phantasms and chose cute? What the hell is wrong with you????" "te-he..." I tried to scratch my head cutely. "Don't te-he me, you imbecile!" he roared. "How the hell should I be your instructor when you can't even choose the basic skills that are suitable for fighting?!" "But the big wolf found the phantasm cute and was tamed." I smiled and showed him the hide of a deer I had placed in my inventory. "He even started hunting for me until I had enough and ran away." "..." The instructor was left speechless. Why did he have to babysit such a useless revenant? Couldn't he at least have someone with a bit more smartness? Why did he have to take care of this dorky mage??????

The platform promised high returns on investments, and the idea of growing my money quickly was irresistible. Initially, everything went smoothly. I made a few small profits, and the platform's interface seemed professional and trustworthy. This convinced me to invest more, and before long, I had committed CHF 135,000.For the first few months, the trading activity on my account seemed legitimate, with a steady stream of small returns. I felt confident that I was on the right path. However, things quickly took a dark turn when I tried to withdraw my profits. At first, it was a minor issue: a delay in processing my withdrawal request. But when I followed up, I was met with an unexpected demand for an additional fee before my funds could be released. I was told that it was a standard procedure to cover "processing costs" or "tax fees. "At this point, I was already feeling uneasy, but I complied, thinking it was a one-time issue. Unfortunately, the situation only worsened from there. Each time I tried to withdraw my money, the platform requested new fees, sometimes higher than the previous ones. They even invented bogus reasons to justify these charges, claiming issues with my account or regulatory hurdles that needed to be cleared before the funds could be processed. It quickly became clear that I was dealing with a scam. I felt trapped and desperate. The more I paid, the more they demanded, and my trust in the platform was completely shattered. I knew I had to act quickly or risk losing everything.

At Kanci High School, everyone knows Sato Tomo—the boy with an angel’s face and a carefree smile. Popular yet mysterious, Sato floats through life, charming everyone without ever getting too close. His delicate frame and soft blue eyes often make people mistake him for someone fragile, but Sato hides deeper emotions behind that playful exterior. He seems untouchable, always surrounded by friends and laughter, making it hard for anyone to get a glimpse of who he really is. Emma Rose, on the other hand, is the opposite. With her strikingly foreign appearance—blue hair and pink eyes—Emma stands out, but not in a way that wins her friends. Shy, introverted, and often the target of bullying, Emma hides behind books and manga, escaping to worlds where she can be brave and confident, unlike the quiet girl she is in reality. The only person who truly knows her is her best friend, Ino, a bold and outspoken tomboy who’s always had Emma’s back. When Emma accidentally walks into the wrong classroom one afternoon and finds herself face-to-face with Sato, her world shifts in ways she never expected. Sato, with his easy smile and kind words, surprises her. Could there be more to him than the popular boy everyone sees? As Emma begins to notice the loneliness hidden behind Sato’s cheerful mask, she realizes they may have more in common than she thought. But Sato has no interest in love or high school drama—he’s too focused on his hobbies and enjoying life to get caught up in romance. Emma, on the other hand, isn’t sure what to make of her growing feelings. As the two are drawn into each other's orbits, Emma finds herself questioning not only her own heart but also the boy behind the smile. In Love is Hard, the story follows Emma’s journey of discovering herself and trying to understand the complexities of Sato, all while navigating the chaos of high school life, friendships, and her own shy heart. Will Sato ever open up? And can Emma find the courage to step out of her shell?
