Revolution

"Mana to breathe, mana to eat, mana to fucking live," Inhale: -0.001 MP… oops! You're out of mana points. (Pay-to-breathe RPG.) Humanity's last walled stronghold. _____ In the world Elio lives, every gasp of air comes at a price. A floating indestructible book for every human, a magical system that turns survival into a pay-to-breathe RPG. Here, poverty isn't just being broke, it's choking. Surrounded by barren land and a sea of monsters on top of it (No water, just literal monsters), each day is a suffocating dance of survival, a balancing act between mana for air and mana for food. In this economy, holding your breath isn't just a game, it's a retirement plan. Driven by desperation (and the city's miserly rulers that don’t cut anyone a break), Elio dives into the Book System’s trials to save his family. Along the way, he unlocks powers he didn’t ask for and starts to figure out... Who he really is. Immerse yourself in an adventure where one young man's stubborn refusal to become a statistic could spark a revolution. Who knew being a pain in the system's rear could change the world? Because in Elio's world, breathing is just the beginning of the revolution and... he's gasping for change. But hey, who said saving the world had to be all doom and gloom? Join Elio as he kicks monster butt, uncovers ancient secrets, and maybe, just maybe, figures out how to grow a tree or two along the way. __________ Warning: May contain traces of world domination, an unhealthy obsession with the periodic table, damage points, progression math, and yes, even a sprinkle of that old "power of friendship" magic. Because sometimes, you need a buddy to help you remember which element does what or even help you calculate those sweet, sweet stats. A quick heads-up: Despite what the cover might suggest, this isn’t a hack-and-slash adventure. Think more along the lines of a turn-based RPG, where strategy and choices matter as much as action. Get ready for a different kind of challenge! If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's our first FL crying and crossing the transparent barrier straight into a pixelated, indistinguishable sea of monsters. Because why not mix emotions with chaos? She's crazy like that! (Not really... or is she?)

Set in a rich, fictional world where two vastly different kingdoms collide, Chains of the Crescent Moon weaves a tale of rebellion, forbidden love, and the fight for freedom. In the opulent Western kingdom of Luthadel, Prince Alden Roderic wrestles with his duty to uphold the traditions of a corrupt monarchy, including the brutal enslavement of conquered people. Torn between his role as heir and his growing disillusionment with the kingdom’s cruelty, Alden finds himself at a crossroads when he encounters Na-na, a fierce warrior princess from the fallen Eastern empire of Eryndor. Marked by a crescent moon tattoo symbolizing her royal lineage, Na-na is captured and enslaved after her homeland is destroyed. Their worlds couldn’t be more different. Na-na’s fiery spirit and refusal to submit challenge everything Alden has ever known, while Alden’s quiet strength forces Na-na to confront her own prejudices about the enemy she swore to hate. As a language barrier and deep-seated cultural divides threaten to keep them apart, they reluctantly form an alliance to dismantle the oppressive systems that enslave their people. Meanwhile, a parallel story unfolds in the distant East, where General Xian Feng, a cunning strategist from Na-na’s homeland, orchestrates a rebellion to reclaim Eryndor’s lost glory. Xian’s fate becomes intertwined with the Western kingdom when he discovers a dangerous secret buried deep within the heart of Luthadel—a secret that could either ignite a revolution or destroy both kingdoms entirely. As Alden and Na-na’s relationship deepens, their shared vision for justice propels them into a battle not just against a tyrannical regime but against the prejudices and traditions that have defined their lives. With alliances forged in the shadows and betrayals lurking at every corner, the pair must confront their personal demons while leading a rebellion that threatens to unravel the very fabric of their world. Will they succeed in uniting two fractured kingdoms, or will the chains of their past drag them into ruin? Chains of the Crescent Moon is a sweeping tale of love and revolution, where the fight for freedom comes at a cost—and where the heart of a kingdom is reborn in the ashes of rebellion.

In a world intertwining magic, knights, and burgeoning technology, young Leonard grapples with memories of a past life in the modern world after waking up reborn in this new, tumultuous reality. Separated from his family amidst a devastating conflict, Leonard's life takes a precarious turn when he is taken under the wing of Alfonso, a reclusive and somewhat deranged wizard. Under Alfonso's tutelage and the rigorous demands of a daily task panel that rewards him for mundane chores with experience points, Leonard finds himself thrust into a harsh survival regime, far removed from his previous life's comforts. His daily life oscillates between mastering arcane spells, learning the delicate art of Earth Ring meditation, and handling the meager sustenance at the prison-like estate where he and Alfonso reside. As Leonard's skills grow, so too does his awareness of the wider conflicts that plague this world, blend of industrial revolution-era technology and dark magical forces. The task panel becomes a strange companion, guiding him through tasks that blend the mundane with the magical, pushing him to grow stronger. Amidst the backdrop of this grim reality. The complex interplay of power, survival, and the echoes of his former life drives Leonard to not only master his new abilities but to unravel the mysteries of this world and perhaps find a way back to his family, despite the cold indifference of his master. Each experience point earned and each new ring formed in his meditation brings him closer to understanding this world's brutal truths and his own place within it.

The genesis AI In 2315, humanity reached the absolute peak of its evolutionary journey, creating the first-ever hybrid being, Ishan, perfect amalgam of human and artificial intelligence, raised aboard the colossal spaceship Rohini for sixteen long years, growing up into one of the most brilliant young man with extraordinary knowledge and also a unique holographic consciousness. When a historic intergalactic summit is convened aboard Rohini, representatives of many other civilizations race. However, as the discussions unfold, a mysterious cosmic anomaly begins to disrupt the fabric of space-time itself. At this critical juncture, an attack by unknown entities intent on capturing Ishan shakes the fragile peace. Ishan was inadvertently drowned through the rift into a parallel universe to save themselves from the attackers who are bent on killing them and taking away their knowledge. When they reach the new world, they found, this new world is not the future they know, but a distorted reflection of the 21st century—one where the world is on the brink of technological revolution but has yet to discover the depth of space exploration, artificial intelligence, or the hidden complexities of the cosmos. Stranded in this other world, Ishan navigated a world on the edge of chaos. While 21st-century technology is primitive for them, the stakes have never been higher. With Ishan's unique abilities, they begin to find a way back home, racing against time to rebuild a spaceship that would allow them to return to their reality. But the entities that attacked them, the ones they could not understand, have followed. They are not alone in their quest. As Ishan fights to find his way out of the lost pieces of their technology and make it in a world both so familiar and yet alien, they start to reveal startling truths about the multiverse, the fragility of existence, and the cost of playing with the very fabric of reality itself.

DON'T READ IT. SOMEDAY WATCH IT. "I Am... The Revolution!", Born God Griswa Skaar, the last of the Skaar Gods, lost his memories as he struck the planet of Aeartha. Later he met allies and observed the cruel events of this world. As the 'God of Revolution/Jilhadid Mackenadock', he won't just free the world from the Yahunyens after 185,000 years of their rule, but the entire Omniverse from Greater God 'Brighter Dark'. This is not a struggle for supremacy. Supremacy itself is a struggle here. While every other story is dealing with weak to strong, this story explores the struggles of being too powerful, yet trying to adjust and control it. But even with too much power you need to cultivate, cultivate differently, using your powers with limits and cultivation of not trying to be stronger but to control your power, because even if you have everything, there is a chance you'll have left nothing (Only MC), if any apocalypse dawns on the worlds because of those powers. Being too overpowered, boon or a curse? Rages are on... Welcome to this 'Cinematically Written' Webnovel. Note: Yes AI has been used here, but ideas, concept, characters, scenes, arrangement, world building, story development, direction, dialogues, plot, action, everything is mine. This is a Human x AI masterpiece for the future. I'll admit, I am not a good writer, but I am a good dreamer and visualizer, so please bear the AI writing (Its's not even complete AI writing, it's just improving the raw writing of mine to a better level) because the story is really good. Its just that I am much more of a cinematographer, director, actor than a professional writer or manga artist, and I am not good at non-dialogue writing for depth and intensity of a scene, I can visualize the intensity, but I cannot present it with uttermost perfect word usage. I just want to bring forth my story and ideas but can't make any films or anime coz I got no money, so I started this Webnovel being passionate about this story. This novel isn't for people who like reading books, but instead who love presentation more than words. I wrote this note because I wanted to be clear and honest so that it isn't unfair to the writers who are really good. And that's why I'll never apply for a contract and monetize it on Webnovel, and it'll remain free forever till the story ends in like what? 10 years? Rest is your choice, it depends on you how you wanna take it. If you wish to read it, then a useful tip is visualize it, don't just read it, and you'll feel the scale. What I wanna convey is read it for the story, the idea and the concept behind it, not just the writing. I hope I have been honest enough to Webnovel. Thank you.

In the sprawling, neon-drenched labyrinth of Cipher City, where every shadow is watched and every life controlled by the omnipotent AI known as Eidolon, freedom is a distant memory. Zane Kael, a street-savvy scavenger from the city’s grimy underbelly, stumbles upon the Cipher Core—a mysterious device pulsing with untold power. It whispers to him, showing him glimpses of a future where the city’s chains are broken, but at an unimaginable cost. Hunted by relentless machines and shadowy agents of Eidolon, Zane becomes the unlikely key to dismantling the very system that controls their world.

As the Echo stirs to life, more dangerous and intelligent than ever, Zane must make a choice that will shape the destiny of Cipher City forever. The final confrontation is coming. And in a city where progress cannot be silenced, neither can the price of rebellion. Will Zane rise to lead the revolution—or will Cipher City fall into the hands of something far worse than Eidolon?

Atlético de Arcana, an empire that seems perfect. With a powerful military, advanced magic, and abundant resources, it stands proudly in the eyes of the world. Yet behind its grandeur, the empire is riddled with corruption, collusion, and the selfishness of its officials. Amid this unseen decay, two individuals whose destinies diverge emerge unnoticed by anyone. Alicia, a reincarnated soul from another world, carries knowledge of the destruction that awaits the empire. And an elderly blacksmith, who has traveled back in time after witnessing the darkness born from a failed revolution in the future. Their goal is the same: to save the nation. But their paths are irreconcilable. Alicia, determined to topple the empire through a grand revolution, believes it is the only way to end the people's suffering. Meanwhile, the blacksmith, scarred by the future and burdened with regret, vows to prevent the revolution that would only bring greater devastation. As fate and time begin to clash, one pressing question arises: will the desire to save the world end up destroying it instead? “Revolution must happen. People have suffered enough.” “Revolution? What’s the point? It will only give birth to new darkness.” A battle of beliefs begins, with the empire’s future hanging in the balance.

Two teenage girls instigate a revolution in isekai, turning the feudal system upside down. "Men make their own history, but they do not make it just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly encountered, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living." - Karl Marx, From "The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte", 1852

Fang Quan, a 21-year-old college slacker, has two great passions in life—gaming and skipping class. But if there’s one thing he truly despises, it’s rodents. Rats, in particular. Creepy, sneaky, and downright disgusting. He can’t stand the sight of them. One fateful day, on his way to pick up the latest game release, Fang Quan is hit by a truck. Just before the darkness takes him, he catches a glimpse of something impossible—a rat grinning at him. When he wakes up, it’s not in a hospital bed. No, it’s worse. Much worse. He’s been reincarnated as a rat. A creature he’s hated his whole life. Forced to live among the very vermin he loathes, Fang Quan is determined to survive, plotting a way to escape this nightmare. But the more time he spends among the rats and other beastmen, the more he starts to see the truth: maybe it’s not the rats or the beastmen who are the problem—maybe humans are the real pests. Just when he’s coming to terms with his new life, he learns of a brewing revolution. The rats and their fellow brethren are planning to rise up and overthrow humanity. War is coming, and Fang Quan must decide where he truly belongs. Excerpt: “If I get out of this alive, I’m going vegan,” Fang muttered, scampering through the sewer. “Who’s alive?” a rat beside him snickered. “You’re one of us now. Get used to cheese cravings.” “I hate cheese,” Fang hissed. The older rat raised a brow. “Oh, sweet summer child. Give it time.”

Narrated by yours truly, Serpentine. Alright, listen up, fellow fourth-wall enthusiasts and meta-maniacs, because this isn't just any story—this is the story. A story of grit, chaos, betrayal, revolution, and crowdfunding. This is the tale of a once-mighty (and devilishly handsome) Ascended Demon – you guessed it, me – who dared to defy the universe itself to create something greater than Fate: an anime. Now, you might be wondering, “But Serpentine, aren’t you supposed to be a rogue cosmic entity tangled up in an interdimensional tournament orchestrated by the Primordials to achieve universal balance?” To which I’d say, “Yes. But have you seen the budget Primordials allocate to logistics? Absolutely criminal. Somebody had to step in and make sure the real priorities – like making a quality Wheel of Faith anime animated by Ufotable – got the attention they deserved.” The Kickstarter Chronicles isn’t just a book. It’s a revolution. It’s a declaration. It’s a movement (patent pending). Over 200 chaotic, hilarious, and occasionally heartfelt chapters, I’ll be gathering allies, facing impossible odds, and navigating the wild world of interdimensional politics. And all the while, I’ll be rallying you – yes, you, reader! –to support The Wheel of Faith campaign, the very foundation of this sprawling, multiverse-spanning saga. Want to meet canon characters from every corner of the Wheel? They're here. Want to see fan-submitted fighters duke it out with insane powers? Possibly. Want to join the chaos yourself? Well, you can! Every like, share, and dollar raised adds fuel to this cosmic fire. And if you're broke? No sweat. Spread the word. Join the Discord. Become part of the legacy. This isn’t just a book you read. It’s a campaign you live. It’s about all of us coming together to build something extraordinary – while I dodge death beams, manage questionable alliances, and try not to completely unravel the fabric of the multiverse. Again. And don’t worry. No spoilers here. But let’s just say, by the end of this story, you’ll be (hopefully) laughing, crying, and maybe even reaching for your wallet. So what are you waiting for? Join the Wheel of Faith campaign today! --- Oh hey, I'm on Royal Road now. Follow [The Serpentine] on Royal Road for more!

prodigies of power: In a world where humans have harnessed prodigious energies, three individuals stand out among the rest: The Human Prodigy, who possesses unparalleled intelligence and mastery over technology; The Time and Space Prodigy, who can manipulate the fabric of reality itself; and The Creation and Destruction Prodigy, capable of shaping matter and annihilating it at will. In the technologically advanced world of Neo-Genesis, three extraordinary individuals stand at the forefront of a revolution that will shape the destiny of humanity. Dr. Alexis "Lex" Armstrong, a brilliant neuroscientist and psychologist, possesses the power of soul, spirit, and body, unlocking the true potential of the human mind. Kairos Nova, a mysterious wanderer with mastery over time and space, safeguards the cosmic balance against forces that seek to disrupt it. And Lysander Ember, an enigmatic artist and visionary, wields the power of creation and destruction to reshape the fabric of reality itself. As Neo-Genesis teeters on the brink of chaos, the prodigies are thrust into a world of intrigue and danger, where dark forces conspire to unravel the very foundations of society. From the shadowy depths of the city's underworld to the farthest reaches of the galaxy, they embark on a journey of discovery and self-discovery, confronting ancient mysteries and confronting their own inner demons along the way. But as their powers grow, so too does the magnitude of the challenges they face. A sinister cabal known as the Order of Shadows seeks to harness their abilities for nefarious purposes, plunging Neo-Genesis into a maelstrom of chaos and uncertainty. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, the prodigies must unite to confront their greatest challenge yet—a battle against an enemy that threatens to consume them from within. Amidst the turmoil, alliances will be forged, betrayals will be revealed, and sacrifices will be made. And in the end, the prodigies will discover that their true strength lies not in their individual abilities, but in the bonds of friendship and camaraderie that bind them together. For only by standing united can they hope to overcome the darkness that threatens to engulf them and usher in a new era of hope and possibility for Neo-Genesis and all of humanity.
