Is The Overstory A Magical Realism

For twenty years since his soul had transmigrated, Bailuo thought this was an ordinary world, until one day, a black leather book appeared in his mind. "Is there magic in this world?" Facing Bailuo's question, his uncle remained unwavering as he said, "No." "But there are miracles." "What are miracles?" "A sword that can release flames, a pot that can pour out gold, a beautiful girl grown from a fruit." The uncle said, "Controlling the mist, bringing the storm, commanding the thunder." "Magic!" Bailuo raised his hand and pointed, "This is definitely magic!" "No." His uncle said, "These are truly miracles." Years later, when Bailuo looked upon the nation he had built with his own hands, that magnificent and majestic sight, he agreed with what his uncle had said all those years ago, "This is a miracle..."

Poppy Brooks, who’d ditched the mafia she was tied to in pursuit of a normal life as a caregiver, is suddenly hired by a wealthy man, who needed a caregiver for a strange severe case of migraines.   She accepts the job, unaware of what she is getting into. What this man is, she had no idea. The weird connection she has with him, or his unlike-human behavior at times, none of them makes sense to her.  He is the devil, some would say.   . . Xavian Winslow, an alpha who ditched his pack to stay on the other side among humans, is suffering from a cursed migraine, one that affects his daily life. What he needed as a caregiver was a human who didn’t have anything to do with him, not in any way.  For a man who’d had a first mate who died on him, a second mate was very much impossible.  But would that still be the case when he meets Poppy Brooks, his caregiver?   What will he do when he is left with a choice: reject her to protect her or risk losing her completely to the hands of his kind, who forbade mating with humans?  Will he keep her regardless, or let go? And what happens when he discovers that Poppy, who he’d thought was nothing but a caregiver, is one way or another related to the mafia? A group of humans who he despised with every fiber in him?  ********* [The cover isn’t mine, credits to the owner]

When Lu Huang woke up as Lidia—the villainess of a cringe-worthy romance novel—she was determined not to let the story play out like the dumpster fire it was written to be. Nope. Dying at the hands of the Alpha King after being falsely accused, publicly humiliated, and manipulated into madness? Yeah, that’s not on her to-do list. Armed with a sharp tongue that could flay egos, the street smarts of a broke college grad, and the petty audacity of someone with nothing left to lose, Lidia decides she was ripping up the script. Holier-than-thou saintesses? Screw ’em. Self-righteous alphas? They can eat dirt. If this world insists on casting her as the villain, she’s going to own it—on her terms. One chaotic scheme at a time, Lidia’s ready to rewrite her fate—and if she has to break a few rules (and maybe some noses) to do it, so be it. Villainesses don’t play nice, and Lidia is just getting started.

[WSA 2025] He wasn’t particularly handsome by the standards of this world.

Miles Fielding is a scrawny twelve-year-old from some nowhere noble family in the United Kingdom, the kind nobody’s betting on to save the day. Except weird crap keeps happening around him—dogs keel over, kids who mess with him end up limping, and his own folks are starting to think he’s cursed. His dad, Viscount Thomas Fielding, is so freaked out that he sends Miles to the High School of Magic “Pendragon Academy”—this fancy-pants academy for the kingdom’s top Gifted kids. Problem is, Miles is too young, too odd, and way too pale to blend in. Oh, and he has a little secret: Eldric Varnwythe, a snarky dark mage from another world, who got stabbed in the back by his own siblings and somehow crash-landed in Miles’s skull. Together, they’re a ticking time bomb of chaos and potential. Eldric Varnwythe’s got necromancy tricks up his sleeve and a vendetta burning in his soul. Eldric is teaching him tricks that’d make your granny faint, Miles’s stumbling into a world of secret lairs, banned alchemy, and beasts that’d eat your face off. His family is scared he’ll hex them, his classmates think he is a freak, and the United Kingdom? Clueless about the storm brewing in this kid’s bony little frame. Will he tame the darkness or let it loose? Hell if I know—but it’s gonna be a wild ride. At Pendragon Academy, under the sharp eye of Headmaster Sir Edward Frederick Harrington, Miles’s supposed to be a prodigy-in-training—but the dark vibes he’s giving off? They’re anything but normal. When he’s not acing herbology or dodging nosy classmates, he’s battling monsters like the Fire Ant with a ragtag crew, proving he’s more than a creepy kid with a pale face. Perfect for fans of magical misfits, epic battles, and snarky voices in your head that won’t shut up. Miles and Eldric are about to flip Pendragon Academy on its head—one spell, one snarky jab at a time. Dive in if you dare!

Once upon a time, I wanted to become a 'Hunter' Hunters used to be people that awakened unique weaponry with unique skills called, 'Fables,' that protected humanity from monsters, they closed gates, conquered dungeons and climbed towers... But that's when I was young, nowadays I hate them..... What's the fucking point of becoming one? All 'dungeons' are conquered, the 'gates' have been all closed and every 'tower' have been climbed. Yet 'Hunters' still exist... Why? There are no longer any 'monsters' that can harm humanity so who are you really protecting us? So why do you fucking continue to lie about everything? Is it because you don't want to lose your power over the world? I'm tired of your fake ass "Justice" and "Heroism" ... I wonder, what happens If I destroy this web of lies you, bitches made, after all the public needs to know... I, Choi Hyunwoo a "Hunter," will destroy everything you care for you, fake bastards...

Alchemists are a prestigious and rare profession, and to become a qualified alchemist, one must first be a wizard. Wizards themselves are a noble and scarce breed. However, when a soul filled with thoughts of AK-47, ballistic trajectories, landmines, skateboards, and other otaku concepts inhabits the body of the most humble and lowly of slaves, and this slave becomes an alchemist, it’s as if a bomb has been dropped into a lake, sending waves crashing across the world. What’s even more surprising is that this guy not only refuses to follow the ancient traditions of alchemy passed down for thousands of years but also insists on creating outlandish inventions. The water-based magic potions he creates are completely revolutionary, turning centuries of alchemical history on its head, now reduced to tiny granules instead of the usual concoctions. As for his understanding of weapons and magic, it's equally unconventional: "Well, my weapon can directly eliminate your enemies right in your home—who needs a greatsword? And my magic cannon fires hundreds of fireballs in the time it takes you to cast one fireball spell, so who needs a staff? As for potions, it’s all about convenience and portability. But the most important thing is gold, gold, because only with enough gold can you buy all the things you need!” Kent shouted as he passionately defended his creations. It all started with an accident and a contract with a magical monster...

I left a comment saying, “I liked it better back then…” on a webtoon that was being serialized on a personal blog, and somehow I ended up reincarnated in that webtoon’s world. It seems my place here is that of “Minion 16,” the one who gets defeated by the magical girl every time.
