With nothing but a rusty sword and his wits, Ryan must fight through hordes of monsters, conquer deadly dungeons, and uncover the secrets hidden within the game. Teaming up with an unlikely group of allies—a rogue archer, a battle-hardened tank, and a mysterious beauty who seems to know more than she lets on—Ryan discovers that becoming a hero isn’t just about leveling up. It’s about courage, friendship, and finding purpose in a digital world where the stakes are higher than ever. Can Ryan rise from zero to hero, save the ones he cares about, and uncover the truth behind the game before it’s too late?

Duncan Abnomar was transmigrated to a magical world. Most of the lands of the world had sunken, and the surviving humans could only live on islands. Due to an unknown reason, the world was also contaminated and strange phenomena and things would randomly appear. Humans had developed steam gear technology, and the islands were connected through boats. They survived by studying strange phenomena that happened all around the world. However, as the captain of a scary-looking ghost ship, Duncan was facing a huge challenge. "How the heck do I steer this ship?" Highly recommended by experienced editor: MC is transmigrated to a world mostly covered in water and far from civilization. He becomes the captain of the ghost ship, the 'Homeloss'. He steers through the fog and adventures through the broken world and the unknown deep sea. As he discovers the ruins of abandoned civilization, he would also stumble into the war between the strange phenomena and the devil gods. The story takes place in a combination of ocean and Chutly mythology world, a new and interesting background. It’s an attractive story to read due to the author’s sense of humor and mastery over the ambiance of the story. --------------- Another-style introduction: "On that day, a thick fog engulfed everything. On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship. On that day, he crossed the dense fog and faced a completely overturned and shattered world – the former order was completely gone, and peculiar phenomena dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society. The island city-states and the fleets challenging the sea have become the only lights of civilization left, while the shadows of old days still lurk in the deep sea, waiting to devour this dying world again. But for the new captain, there's only one pressing question – Does anyone know how to sail this damn ship?!"

The Night Has Come, and kermesinus moon ascends in the sky. Hoarse whispers flow at the street corners, and brass steam machines spew out bloody mist. Your brain is singing a hymn, eyes are chanting a melody. Skin cracks, and flesh buds swell. Amidst the Mist, the wall of flesh that has devoured thousands of corpses wails endlessly— "Weep not, our players don't bite, they just want to play with you." Annan, the lone strategist, the top player, the savior of the mist-covered continent, the leader of the Thirteen Saints, the friend of the Twelve True Gods, the king of pioneers, "the Just", the Gatekeeper of the Fourth Calamity, the uncrowned deity, advised kindly.

The world is burning, and Ash is already dead inside. When a deadly virus turns the world upside down, she’s left with nothing but the weight of her family’s death—and the desire to let everything go. Eve doesn’t care about anything except survival. Tough, ruthless, and hiding secrets darker than the world she’s trying to outrun, she’s everything Ash isn’t—but the two women are forced together by a world that’s crumbling faster than they can keep up. Their bond is nothing short of combustible. Desperate, angry, and undeniably drawn to each other, they clash with every step—surviving the apocalypse only to destroy one another in the process. But as the undead close in and the line between love and hate disappears, their fight might be the only thing keeping them alive. The Eve of Ashes is a pulse-pounding, heart-wrenching tale of survival, obsession, and a love born from the ashes of the world. Will they survive the end of everything—or each other?

Being thrown into the game-world of [Call of the Black Magicians], Adam was forced to survive with no prior information. Except for his memories of the Game-World and his name, he did not have any memories of his previous life. But fret not, even though the Game-World had many perils and was on the verge of extinction at every next step, it also had its beauty and magic, one to die for. With the authority of [Player], he could save and restart until he achieved his desired result.  He could learn skills of the ‘NPCs’ and achieve the results like the ‘Players.’  He could literally solo the entire game world to achieve his desired results. Whether he wants to save the world or destroy it, he could do it… as many times as he wishes. Even the [Black Magicians] won’t be able to do anything about it… probably. But was it all there was to it? [Beta Version 0.1 will begin in 6 Months: 29 days: 23 Hours!] I guess not… … Description: In the World of Zarraf, their lives Gods, not all Gods are good and certainly none are without motives.  They rule the world’s 7 nations:  The Nation of Light and Sun The Nation of Water The Nation of Fire The Nation of Life The Nation of Earth The Nation of Moon The Nation of Wind Each ruled by a goddess that has their own stance in their ruling.  But that is only the first page of this world. The second page colors the Ancient Gods of Corruption, Rage, Curse, Death and Hate. The third belongs the Seven Sins’ Incarnations that are ready to succeed the Ancient Gods. The Fourth is of the Witches who stand against all Gods equally. And the Final Page colors the [Immortals] or otherwise known as [Players] that will be summoned to bring Chaos to this world. A World that was meant to be destroyed. Such is the fate of the world of Zarraf, as powers beyond the realm of mortals threaten the dynamic equilibrium of their existence. In the end, the world was prophesied to be destroyed by one cause or another. Nothing could prevent looming destruction… Or so... It was supposed to happen… … Hey, Author here to give a quick glance at a couple of things that are normally asked. Harem? Yes Romance? Yes System? Obviously Smut? Oh yes! Adventure RPG? Yes. Power Creeping? Not really. Overpowered? Depends on how you see it Smart MC? I guess so.  Wise MC? Yes Something you need to know before you read The MC has the ability to [Save] a point (there are some conditions), with which he can return in time. So basically, he is an immortal. Though that doesn’t make him invincible from the start, rather he grows by making correct choices. The World is dynamic and pretty much anything can happen anytime. (It’s just my way of saying that there will be twists… pretty much unexpected ones as well).  And then there will be solutions to those unexpected situations as well, depending upon the absurdity of it. (I won’t have any more plot armor since I gave him a pretty big buff of immortality, so everything will be connected and won’t just happen by luck. Everything will be cleared by the end of an arc, so you need to be patient before deciding on it.) It has a mix of everything. Thriller, Adventure, Action, Smut, Romance, Slice of Life, etc. so there is that as well. ……. [Mature Warning: This Novel Contains R-18 Content!] https://discord.gg/2swHXduWg3

Ashes Reborn For five years, I was a ghost, condemned to the shadows by the people I trusted most. My brother, Murat, framed me for a crime I didn’t commit, stealing my freedom and my legacy. My wife, Leyla, abandoned me, choosing to believe his lies and sealing our bond with betrayal when she married him. They destroyed me, but they underestimated my resolve. In the depths of that prison, I was reborn. Iskender Yilmaz ceased to exist, replaced by Ali Demir—a man of wealth, power, and relentless determination. With a new face, a new name, and a heart hardened by betrayal, I returned to Istanbul, no longer the man they knew, but the reckoning they deserved. I infiltrated their lives as Ali, weaving myself into the cracks of their perfect facade. Murat, so blinded by his own arrogance, never saw his empire crumbling beneath him. Leyla, torn between the life she built on lies and the truth she could no longer deny, found solace in the stranger I had become. But vengeance is not without its cost. As I dismantled Murat's world piece by piece, I was forced to confront my own pain, my love for a woman who betrayed me, and the man I had become in my pursuit of justice. Ashes Reborn is my story—a tale of betrayal and vengeance, yes, but also of redemption. It is a testament to the fire within us all, the one that destroys but also rebuilds. I am Ali Demir, and this is how I rose from the ashes.
