In that sense, his past was always haunting him. Surreal memories that did not belong to him, in this life. Something was missing and that hollowness in his soul told him that he was incomplete and an utter monstrosity.... more>>

he doesn’t dream. when he sleeps, he would drown—in memories he do not recall, pain that tore at his bones, pain that tore at his soul. when he wakes up, he would no longer smell the metallic scent of blood, nor would he need to struggle to breath through the pain.

Vale Bryce is a hunter because her dad wants her to be one. She is a loner because all hunters are. She is a drifter because that is how hunters find their jobs. ... more>>

Those are lies. Vale is none of those things, the lies the only thing keeping her alive. Until one day she slips up. A single moment of truth ruins it all, awakening a longing for a life not built on things she isn’t.

Vale has to go back to lying. She has to. The Inquisition will kill her if she doesn’t. But the truth is too addictive. Vale is not a vampire. That is a lie. That is how she will die.

Yet maybe... dying happy is better than dying a lie?

Myths have existed for as long as humanity has, to describe that which we could not understand, but almost all of these are told from the human (or some other outsider's) point of view. What if we looked at what the gods were doing, and only caught glimpses of what was happening below, in the world?... more>>

Here we have the tale of the gods, not of Earth, but of a new world, and how they find their own purpose, in the Game of the World.

This story is rather lighthearted, mostly me figuring out how to write characters, so there will be little worldbuilding, because, well... The gods will be doing that. ~æ

This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.

One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment. <<less

It's been a couple of months since the incident at the Brimstone Institute of Demonics, where a dreaded Devil held the school's populace hostage and forced one of its staff to fight him, one-on-one. Though much time has passed since Cobalt Trayer ripped Diate's head clean from his shoulders, he remains haunted by the sanguine memories of that day, and finds himself struggling more and more with the infernal pain deep in his stomach.

As stress begins to pile up, between his students' upcoming final exams and his own personal struggles, Cobalt finds himself suddenly becoming the victim of his own reputation as he is sought out and tracked down by forces unseen.

The afflictions of an Incubus carry many ramifications, and he will be judged for them. <<less

Kataria is a witch. The most witchy of witches, because she does, um, a lot of things that witches do.
Like... make potions! And cast spells, and... things.
Other... witch things, obviously. ... more>>

Ahem.

In order to be such a witch-like person, she of course spends a significant portion of time attending to her witchly activities. Alone, obviously. She wouldn't have it any other way.

Unfortunately, tragedy inevitably strikes.
With events that only could have been orchestrated by fate itself, Kataria is thrown into the midst of the world's most terrifying place.

Society, home of responsibilities and social interaction.
Neither of these are in a witch's job description.

welcome to my story!

this is a rewritten version of an old story i (tried) making a while ago, called "The Loner Witch and the Troubles of Society", which i had tried to write, and failed, mostly cause i hit mental roadblocks. and writer's block. and other blocks of similar nature. if any such blocks exist. yeah.

Immortality, a coveted desire shared by many, remains an elusive and unattainable wish. Even the Gods and Primordial beings cannot claim they have an eternal life. To achieve immortality, one must embark on an arduous and treacherous journey fraught with immense pain, endless solitude, and unfathomable despair. Only a select few possess the resilience to traverse this path, yet even they cannot attain 'true' immortality. However, there always exists an exception.... more>>

In a nameless village, nestled among rolling hills, a humble peasant boy was born. Unbeknownst to him, he possessed a rare gift, a gift that held the potential for 'true' immortality. Yet, fate had its own designs, for the shadows lurking in the depths became aware of his existence.

And they will definitively not stand aside and wait for him to mature...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The theme of story is about man who is almost imposible to kill and the advantages and disadvantages that comes with it. Thus story will contain body experimentation, torture and other such things that are not for everyone. Of course, I don't plan to make it needlessly gory and uncomfortable for people. It won't be detailed that much.

The story was inspired from novels 'Immortal in the Magic World' and 'As an Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills. It is mostly about the idea of immortality rather than their story.

First of all this is a Mission: Yozakura Family FF. Second is that it's most likely going to be a slow FF... Third is that most of the first part is going to be only OCs.

I don't own Mission: Yozakura Family or any related thing. I only own my OCs.

Unlike the original manga I added something that Tanpopo would have most likely have done.

There is no system, but there is something that is basically the same as the Yozakuras 'Blooming' but it won't come out until much later in the series. Also this will focus on the much more dark aspects of the Mission: Yozakura Family world.

If you want to support the series, please consider giving me stones, adding it to your library, etc... it motivates me to write more.

The cover photo is not mine and I do not claim ownership whatsoever. I got this off the Mission: Yozakura Family discord server from the wiki.

Reincarnation, fantasy, and magic, in my past life world there was no such thing yet I read some literary works for a spare time. There were even jokes that my potential can even grow further if there's those factors around.... more>>

Reincarnated in another world as one of the royals in a fantasy world in a country called The United Covenant of Chevalynthea, it indeed hit a jackpot as I started setting my plans and desire to motion while throwing in my contributions under the different alias.

The best part? The country's real classified politburo and all the living founders of the country approved it as per practice and tradition for a royalty to know the ways of the world itself, and train and get stronger.

While it remained that way ever since in that arrangement, I watched things unfolded with a merging of the worlds phenomena.

"I know what you will say next as befitting of your stature and personality in this scene you and your lackeys created. You're like that particular character trope from the literary works I read. I got many ways to deal with persons such as yourself just as I had done to a certain laughing stock of a disbanded political party from Segliora."

"It's not my fault your former fiancée enjoys my presence and my insights about the roles of royalty in a country and what should be their stage in the world itself, and magic. You got like what? Your engagement broke off and led to this. Speaking of which, your former country and world, you know the terms simp and generic male harem MC, right? If that is so, then you don't really get things here including her very own homeland in this magical fantasy world because this country is a constitutional monarchy state as such the monarch and the royal family must be strong and be there for their subjects. I will not apologize to what I will do next - welcome to your bad ending."

"Another day of a member of nobility being a frog in the well at matters and discrimination because of this country's magic system. Allow me to introduce myself."

"Using religion to fatten your pockets and running away from the act? Allow this errant traveler to let you 'sing'."

"Surprised? That's one of my personal creation spells."

I ponder to myself, "Is it wrong for a reincarnated royalty to explore incognito?

Healer Yuen Sou Yuet has somehow found themselves saddled with a travelling companion, a gender-shifting, trouble-making necromancer. They're stuck with each other - Sou Yuet must undergo a trial to prove their worthiness as successor to the Yuen Mei School of Healing, whilst the necromancer essentially requires a parole officer after committing multiple crimes and continuously escaping imprisonment.

Finally! After hundreds of years of suppression and abuse, humanity produced a genius!

---

From 391 Aetil to 'now', humanity has had to live as the servants of the Gods. They had been wrongfully abused and used as slaves with no rights. Just as they were going to give up and forever live at the bottom of the food chain, hunted by every existence and used as sources of entertainment, a genius with extraordinary talent had been born!

Raymond Valtere, or Ray for short, had been born. And only 5 years after his birth, he was sealed away by some Gods who were afraid of his talent.

Sealed in the Void, where nothing exists, Ray trains and learns. In a place where his mind ages yet his body doesn't, he meets the Void and comes to see it as a sort of Guardian that raised him.

Ray reaches the peak of his talent and, eventually, reaches the peak of humanity. Now wielding the power of the Void, he sets out to free humanity from the shackles of the Gods. Though he might find other goals in the future, not everything is certain!

But... Why is he so strange? And why isn't he perfect, as all heroes should be?
