With the ability to awaken latent powers as a Warden, Theo is determined to forge his own path, despite his low energy level and lack of skills.

I died. That's obvious. But I was reborn. How? Don't ask me. Maybe it was some god. A divine being? Ah- It doesn't matter. My life burned away and now- well I'm stuck here in this black void. This dungeon. Maybe I had lived a pious last life. Laughable as that was. But I was given a second chance. Told to grow my dungeon, to create hulking monstrosities that would destroy the world. In short, I am now a villain. I am the consciousness of the dungeon, the little orb at the end my body. And still I live. A projection of a body is created - a trap - and I am that. I am the one to guide foolish adventurers to their death. My looks are curated. Soft features that entrap the mind. I am the dungeon. I am the projection, I am human, and I am the dungeon. And I will conquer all. Every being will bow before my might. "Before you're cuteness~" Ah- heh- that too... help... I didn't ask to look this cute!

"The Hidden Pages" is a riveting adventure that spans across the realms of mystery, history, and the supernatural. This epic tale follows the journey of Evelyn Carter, a young historian, who stumbles upon a mysterious bookshop that houses ancient texts and artifacts. In the dusty corners of this forgotten shop, she discovers a seemingly ordinary book that hides a profound secret—a map leading to the fabled Holy Grail. As Evelyn delves deeper into the mystery, she realizes that the book is not just a gateway to the Grail, but also a conduit to a series of hidden messages left by a secret society that has influenced the course of history. Driven by a blend of curiosity and determination, Evelyn decides to follow the map’s clues, which set her on a path that traverses continents and timelines. Each episode in "The Hidden Pages" marks a new phase in Evelyn’s quest, intertwining her modern-day adventures with flashbacks to historical events that reveal the origins and purposes of the secret society. Alongside a cast of complex characters, including a cryptic librarian, a rogue archaeologist, and a descendant of the society's founder, Evelyn uncovers not only physical relics but also the philosophical and moral dilemmas faced by those who previously sought the Grail. The narrative builds through encounters with ancient guardians, cryptic prophecies, and the relentless pursuit by a shadowy antagonist who seeks the Grail for malevolent purposes. The quest challenges Evelyn's perception of history and morality as the lines between ally and enemy blur, revealing that the true power of the Grail lies not in the object itself, but in the knowledge and influence it bestows. In a climactic sequence of events, Evelyn and her allies must decipher the final pieces of the society’s puzzles before their adversaries can claim the Grail. The resolution of the quest brings a restoration of balance and justice, as Evelyn learns that the Grail’s true significance extends far beyond its mystical properties—it embodies ideals that challenge and redefine the essence of human progress. "The Hidden Pages" concludes with Evelyn assuming the role of a guardian, dedicated to protecting the knowledge and secrets uncovered during her journey. The legacy of the quest, coupled with the lessons learned, propels her into future adventures, suggesting that the story of the Grail and its guardians is an ever-evolving legend, continuing to inspire and challenge future generations. This novel blends the allure of historical mysteries with the dynamic pace of modern adventure, creating a compelling narrative that explores the depths of history, the power of knowledge, and the ever-present battle between good and evil.

As a big fan of dungeon novels I wanted to try to write my own novel. Here my first try.

For generations, Monster filled dungeons have plagued the world. Ozel Kasper, the 'pack mule' of the Black Lotus Guild, was left to die. Unwilling to easy into that sweet night, she fights back. After falling to another world, crippled and broken; she given a choice. Become a Saint and save not only her world but all worlds cursed by the Dungeon Plague; or die like a lowly dog. Ever the Opportunist and driven by a burning desire for revenge, Ozel agrees.

There's always a shadow behind a light. That's how the saying went. I once, too, wanted to be a light. Someone who shined brightly. Someone who stood at the top of the world and was admired by everyone. It was a distant dream of mine. One that, inevitably, I couldn't achieve. Or so I thought. That was when I thought of something. If something shines bright enough, will there still be a shadow? *** For every star, there's a manager. In a world where the entertainment circle is focused on superhumans, Liam Marken, a man whose dreams are shattered, decides to take matters into his own hands and becomes a manager. With his own two hands, he wanted to nurture stars that could reach the peak. Just before he could even start on his new dream, he was gripped by a weird sensation, and... He caught a glimpse of the future. *** This is my take on showbiz novels with a twist. This is a slice-of-life novel with added elements such as romance and action. It's meant to be a relaxing novel one can read when they want to take a break. Each chap will range from 1.8k-2.5k. Inspired by Top Management, IRAS, and TAPOV.
