Check out my new novel: My Seven Beautiful Sins! °°°°° Alexander Kael Touch, a self-made young billionaire, found his meteoric rise tragically cut short on a school trip. But fate had other plans, whisking him and his classmates away to a realm of swords and magic – a world where power manifested as unique: ''Gifts." While friends awoke to magnificent Gifts, Alex's Gift yielded only two enigmatic guns: one gleaming silver, the other shrouded in black. Worse, he couldn't use magic like his peers, drawing scorn and derision. Yet, fueled by an unyielding spirit and a burning dream, Alex refused to falter. In this new world, he craved not wealth, but the strength to forge his own destiny. One goal burned bright: to rise once more, not to the peaks of financial power, but to the pinnacle of strength and control. This is the chronicle of Alexander Kael Touch, the boy with two guns in a world of wonders. A tale of relentless struggle, forged in the crucible of mockery and doubt. A journey to the apex, where the scorned student will become the ultimate warrior. Whispers of the "Death Guns Master" stir, echoes of a legend rising from slumber. The world may have forgotten them, but they are coming back. †††††††††††† Nickaido's here with D-Guns, do not expect the smartest MC because he was once a billionaire, is still young, he has his flaws, he will learn and grow, so will the other characters. At the beginning other characters are stronger but worry not everything will change starting from around chapter 80 onward. Also sorry in advance because some of the female characters have strong backgrounds but it's for the sake of the future story, this book is just the start, I'm still improving. Sorry in advance, English is not my first language, so they may be grammatical errors and misspelled words. Please bear with me. I'm trying to improve to provide a better story. Starting from chapter 200th, I have started using Grammarly premium to help me with the English, so I think it's become better. As for the earliest chapters, I have started to re-edit them slowly; I will do more as I get more time. Maybe hire a professional editor when I can. Once again, this is not some sophisticated story; it has many flaws, which I'm trying to learn from; however, this doesn't make the story less enjoyable. Would you please give it a try?

As Danladi is thrust into a world of espionage, undercover operations, and a deadly game of cat and mouse, he and Jenn must navigate their growing feelings for each other while staying one step ahead of those who want them dead. But when a $50 million bounty is placed on their heads, the hunt intensifies, forcing them to fight not just for vengeance—but for their lives. Betrayal made him ruthless. Revenge made him powerful. But will love make him vulnerable?

We should've prepared for it. The obvious signs were already showing. A continent splitted in half due to an earthquake. The sea rises up, submerging many cities. Stampedes of wild animals trampling the community like they were running from something. All of it was showing yet we took it as granted and stated that it was just ‘normal’. Some said this was punishment. Some said that this was the preparation for God’s descendance. Some said the world was gradually being destroyed. But a single voice made all of this speculation wrong. It all echoed inside our heads. [The evolution of world E#0126 has begun.] And so the age of Apocalypse dawned in our world.

With his sarcastic sidekick, Lily Quinn, by his side, Damon navigates a series of wild and hilarious encounters with Mira, a giant rubber chicken, and inflatable ducks. As the battle for the city escalates, Damon must confront his own feelings for Mira while dealing with the growing tension between him and Lily. Amidst explosions of confetti, awkward romantic confessions, and a city on the brink of destruction, Damon discovers that saving the day might not be as important as finally choosing between the woman from his past and the one who's always had his back. Love and Laughter in the Chaos is a comedic rollercoaster of action, romance, and absurdity, proving that even the craziest battles can lead to a happy ending—or at least a pizza date.

There was once a story where a hero appears, in other iterations a villain could emerge instead. His story started when something went wrong. Kang-Hyeon would have been better off if he knew that the Fanghound Guild was never trustworthy. However, it got the better of him. It was supposed to be an easy gig. One where you translate the runes, undo the seal, and let it be. But it did not play out like that. The moment the tomb responded to him, so did the blade. He left behind a crumbling structure, where he should have met his demise, but his narrative does not set him up like that. Something drew him back. A power kept dormant, something far worse than his entire history. Hidden away inside the unknown. “Hyeon?” something called to him by name. Everything came at a price though and this power needed payment. So there he is with the choice to live. Now when he steps outside and takes a stroll in public, all the people who choose to betray him will understand. The thing that is the most frightening is that he is not dead, yet he refuses to perish. The intricate developments in this world, alongside its thrilling mysteries, and a protagonist that is trapped in between the realms of free will and determinism is what makes it worth appreciating.
