(Warning: This novel has an r18 tag and contains mature content.) Adyr, once a notorious serial killer, met a brutal end and welcomed death as the final judgment for his sins. But he awoke in a parallel Earth, where the rich alter their genes and superhumans are the norm. Believing some unknown force had given him a second chance, Adyr buried the monster within and chose a quiet, normal life. For eighteen years, he lived in poverty with his family, suppressing his urges and forcing himself to be human. Until the day he entered a new VRMMORPG. A game that doesn’t just alter virtual stats but mutates real genes and pushes players toward evolution. While every player chose from four known Paths, Adyr was given a fifth. One that no one had seen before. And with each evolution, the bloodlust he had buried returned, turning him back into the villain he once was. The kind that made even gods afraid to speak his name. *** Follow me on Instagram for character illustrations.

Leticia has spent her life pretending to be someone else—her twin brother, Dexter, who died tragically at birth. Her grieving mother forced Leticia to adopt Dexter’s identity, believing that it was her male child that survived, and to keep the peace, her father went along with the lie. Leticia buried her true self to play the part of the son they lost, but now, as an adult, the weight of this deception is crushing her. Desperate for freedom and stability, she applies for a job at a high-profile company. There’s just one complication—her potential employer, Justin, is a charming but notorious playboy and the man she nearly had a one-night stand with during one of her rare moments of being herself.

Will Leticia have the courage to reveal the truth—and will Justin see her for who she really is? This gripping story of love, lies, and self-discovery asks: How long can a person live a lie?

Have you ever felt that a 'dream' is far too vivid to be mere imagination? As if you were truly 'there,' experiencing the life of 'someone else' in a different world... 'Zen' is an ordinary young man who has lived with these surreal experiences his entire life. But when the 'Echoes' from the other side of his dreams grow clearer and more powerful, he begins to realize... this is no longer just a dream. It is the 'Resonance' of spiritual waves. Every 'self' in each universe he touches has a life and feelings of their own; it's just that their 'soul waves' align with Zen's in a strange way, like a radio tuned to the perfect frequency. This allows him to 'perceive' and 'connect' with their experiences, memories, and even their powers. From a watcher in unfamiliar worlds to discovering a dormant power, and the truth that all life in the multiverse may be connected through these invisible 'waves'. "One Dream, A Thousand Universes" is the journey of a young man awakened from the world he once knew to confront the secrets of the multiverse—a story of combat, magic, advanced technology, and the very meaning of 'life' reflected through the mysterious waves of Resonance. If you've ever felt that "this world might not be our only one," or have questioned the 'reality' you perceive... perhaps Zen's story is an echo from your own universe as well. Come, journey with him and find the answers... in a world where every dream, and every 'wave' you feel, may hold more meaning than you could ever imagine. Note: This story was originally written in Thai and lovingly translated into English by the author himself. While some expressions may differ slightly from standard English, every line carries the author’s intent and emotion as closely as possible.

Max Potelo, a 16-year-old marked by tragedy and purpose, receives his Holy Gift and a mission directly from Heaven: Redeem the world. Bring souls back to Christ. Before it’s too late. But the battlefield is ruthless. Standing in Max’s way are corrupted gods, demonic kings, and the terrifying #1 Player—The God Slayer, bearer of death and destroyer of faith. Satan himself pulls the strings, sending plagues, illusions, and false prophets to twist the world’s heart. Max isn’t just fighting for believers. He’s fighting for atheists, skeptics —because every soul matters. And the countdown to Judgment Day has already begun. This is more than a war of power. It’s a war for eternity.
