Was Twilight

There lived a feeble boy on the streets who struggled to survive, but couldn’t give up on life despite how harsh the going got, trying to survive death which loomed closer by the second. Even then, how long can one really survive hunger? So, he reluctantly welcomed his ultimate demise during a heavy rainy afternoon. Thunder crackled and lightning flashed, which casted the shadow of someone near him; as he lifted his gaze to see whom it belonged to, he saw a girl with soulless eyes, holding onto a bloody knife, who granted him with the peace he so very desired.

Joon never asked to be isekai’d. One minute, he was living his painfully average life—dodging responsibilities, talking shit online, and absolutely not taking anything seriously. The next, he woke up in a mysterious tower filled with monsters, martial artists, and overpowered lunatics. Good news? He has a broken system that lets him copy enemy moves and make them twice as strong. Bad news? The system never shuts up, he’s constantly thrown into death matches, and somehow… he keeps winning in the most bullshit ways possible. From one-shotting martial arts masters to out-trolling ancient council members, Joon climbs the tower with a grin, a middle finger to logic, and a growing list of people who either want him dead… or worship the ground he walks on. But as he rises, so do the whispers of a legend—the Twilight Joker. A name feared. A title now tied to him. And if there’s one thing Joon knows, it’s this: He’s about to become the biggest fucking headache this world has ever seen.

Betrayed and left for dead, Richard Blackwood—formerly known as the world renowned hero Astralis—awakens a decade later to find the world has moved on, and an imposter now wears his mantle. Disguised as a rookie in the Mage Guild, he quietly hunts for answers. 'If my little sister is levelled above me, then what about everyone else? How much stronger have the bastards who betrayed me grown while I was dead?' Richard must grow stronger once again, and rise much higher than the S-Rank. 'What the fuck? I almost die, and I get a power up?'

WAS IT ALL FATED FROM THE BEGINNING?WAS IT BECAUSE I GOT LUCKY?OR MAYBE IT JUST OUT OF WHIM?MAYBE I WILL NEVER KNOW....

Whenever the name Yu YongTian was spoken, it was only in hushed whispers— "Shh! Woe to you for evoking the devil." "Do you have a death wish?" " "Fools whisper his name only if they seek their ruin." Soon after, the summoner would vanish, never to be seen again. Rumors swirled that Yu YongTian took them captive, turning them into vessels to build a demonic army, a force he would use to wreak havoc on the mortal world. His hatred for mortals, and especially the Immortal Sects, was the stuff of legends. So, it was believed by many. ___________ After years of relentless pursuit, Shen YiJun finally crosses paths with him again. But Yu YongTian's first words are as infuriating as ever— "YiJun, I really missed you all these years. Did you miss me?" And Shen YiJun, without hesitation, replies, "Come back with me, Yu YongTian." But Yu YongTian, ever fanning himself with mocking grace, smirks: "If YiJun also misses his Shixiong so much, I'll allow you to… come with me." Thus, Shen YiJun finds himself 'willingly' taken captive by the man he is supposed to stop. _____________ This is a story of Yu YongTian and Shen YiJun, disciples raised under the same sect and master but as incompatible as fire and ice. And when an extrovert meets an introvert, chaos ensues. That is until tragedy strikes and Yu YongTian falls, becoming a feared Demon Lord. Now, Shen YiJun, seen as the only one capable of stopping him, must confront not only Yu YongTian but also the hidden feelings he harbours for him. As secrets unravel, questions also loom: What role does the heaven play in their destinies? And why must the Heavenly Emperor himself descend to interfere?

In a world where love between two women is an absolute taboo, where a princess cannot fall for an outlaw, Elena and Raven must make a choice: defy a kingdom or lose each other forever.

What was supposed to be an ordinary trip to the mall turned into a nightmare beyond imagination. A new kind of horror emerged—neither human nor zombie—unleashing chaos upon the world. As civilization collapsed, a desperate struggle for survival began. Fleeing to a rumored safe haven in the forest, the survivors soon realized that their nightmare was far from over. At night, creatures roamed, and by day, merciless storms struck without warning. The rules of nature had changed, and the unknown lurked in every shadow. When tragedy strikes in the most unimaginable way, one survivor is left questioning reality itself. Was it all just a dream? Or had they truly lived through an apocalypse unlike anything the world had ever seen? The truth may be more terrifying than the nightmare itself.

Once, in an age beyond memory, there was a man who held the world in his grasp—a being so powerful that even the gods bowed in reverence.

I enjoyed a lot in writing it but I am sad because the story has ended and also because even the story has a happy ending but still it was a little bit sad that everyone was not there. SO!!!! I may write another novel with the same world and everyone will gather at the time of MC and ML living together with their children! But don't expect to come too soon, maybe next year, 2026, but I will try to come. Anyways, thanks to my all readers to keep on following so far, I hope you all will be always with my stories and I would love to entertain you more! Peace out ~ The Dark Tempest

Born with only one functioning eye, she is fated to wield a power that ebbs and flows with the cycles of the moon.

Ren Hayashi doesn’t believe in fate. To him, life is nothing more than a series of choices, a script he refuses to follow. But when he meets Aya Tsukishiro—a transfer student with haunting violet eyes—his world begins to unravel. Aya claims they’ve met before. Not once, but countless times.

The dead don’t lie. But sometimes, they whisper things you were never meant to hear. Forensic pathologist Orion Blackwood has spent his career cutting open the dead. But there’s something he never tells anyone—when he touches a corpse, he hears its final words. A dying breath, a muttered name, a cryptic warning. The problem is, they only speak once. And if he doesn’t understand them in time, the truth rots away along with the flesh. One night, a mutilated woman is wheeled into his autopsy room—no fingerprints, no ID, as if she never existed. As Orion reaches for his scalpel, the corpse’s bloodless lips part, and in a ragged whisper, she speaks: “Don’t let him find you.” Then, her jaw snaps shut. Her body goes cold. And Orion realizes something is very, very wrong. The next day, she disappears from the morgue. No records, no evidence, no proof she was ever there. Even the security footage shows only Orion, standing alone in the room. As he searches for answers, the whispers of the dead become more insistent. A faceless figure watches from the corner of his eye. His own reflection moves a fraction of a second too slow. At 3:33 AM, his phone rings from an unknown number—on the other end, he hears his own voice, whispering something he cannot understand. The deeper he digs, the more the truth unravels. And buried at the center of it all is a terrifying secret: Orion Blackwood is not supposed to be alive.
