One moment, I found myself gazing at the sky on my terrace, pondering life's purpose and adopting a philosophical demeanor like a wise sage.... more>>

The next moment, also I continued gazing at the unchanged sky, but somehow something felt different. So, I turned my head slightly, noticing an unusually carved mountain nearby.

What I saw could only be spelled as... nothing. because there was no reaction powerful enough to describe what I was witnessing.

A freaking Ninja Mount Rushmore!!

This marked the beginning of the story of a legendary man who, with a sword in hand and a blade in his pants, conquered the ninja world.

And let's not forget, he also possessed something that nobody else in this world had. What was it? Well....go read the god damn story! What are you still doing here?

Janus Campbell can't fight. And unfortunately for him, that's the only way to survive.... more>>

Upcoming physicist Janus Campbell is trapped in the world of Tersaia, where shadow monsters lurk the streets, anyone can be monitored at any time and fighting is the best way to make a living; either through the Rumble Circuit, a world-wide ranking of combatants that keeps track of participants' wins and losses in competitive duels, or through slaying the constantly spawning Essencima that terrorize the population.

Unfortunately for Janus, he doesn't know how to fight. No special moves. No signature techniques. Not even a basic grab.

However, there are two people that might be able to help him out. Itzel, an avaricious woman with the ability to manipulate the wind, and Gurk, a man-crocodile hybrid of few words that can control ice, are the ones that will have to help Janus if they ever want to leave the harrowing alleys of Labrisson and rank up in the Rumble Circuit.

This short story poses a novel theory as to the role of black holes in both the creation and destruction of an endless number of... more>> universes that coexist in an incomprehensibly complex multiverse. It is a cautionary tale about the arrogance of scientists who are the cosmic equivalent of amoebas attempting to discern the secrets of the universe by thoroughly examining within the limits of their perception the drop of pond scum they inhabit. It is also a cautionary tale about the ability of determined, creative terrorists to begin the process that will lead to the destruction of our corner of the multiverse by the creative use of materials at their disposal. <<less

Saphienne lived the idyllic life of an elf in the woodlands. They told her she was loved; they told her she belonged; they told her she was superior to the aging, dying mortals. Eternal joy was to be her birthright, delivered by the supremacy of elven magic.

But Saphienne was a profoundly gifted child — and all gifts demand a price. The woodlands weren’t the paradise they seemed, and once she’d witnessed their hidden suffering she couldn’t look away.

Perhaps that was why she pursued an apprenticeship in wizardry, hurling herself against challenges both magical and moral. Saphienne would grow to become a formidable woman… and when the flames subsided, the elves would strike her name from history.

Come: listen to the story they don’t want you to hear. Behold Saphienne in her becoming. See her rise and fall, losing what she cherishes and finding what matters, and in the end?

Decide who she was for yourself.

The Best Ongoing Story from Royal Road.

The Elf Who Would Become A Dragon is a heartwarming and heartbreaking fantasy about rejection and belonging, power and consequence, and the cost of being ourselves.

The young yet talented Miya Yuna is no stranger to interplanetary danger on a large scale. In her youth, she charged the frontlines, jumping from planet to planet through raging gunfire, mecha-brute assaults, and angelic bombs from sub-orbital artillery ships. Then danced with crickers, or space criminals, who practiced slitting children's innards to appease green goddesses in the sky. But the cricker underground was brewing as a new entity was providing mecha-wear, genetic mutations, and weaponry to beings hellbent on universal domination and those who'd look the other way to escalate their own agendas.

But to Miya, it's all the same; As long as she's able to give them another asshole through their skull.

In a universe where unchecked progress blurs the line between science and the impossible, can one young alien-hybrid protect entire galaxies—or will she become its next greatest threat? <<less

Sammy was just another struggling college student when she got transported to another realm and transformed into the wholly (holy?) different form of a goddess. Now she has to acquire followers to appease the ever helpful System.

The worst part was that her powers had something stupid to do with mirrors. Go figure.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Progression fantasy god game from the seat of power — care to take over (er, save) the world, one follower at a time? Extremely (multi) class-based LitRPG system inspired by alternate TTRPGs as well as good ole DnD. GURPS as well. Does not ignore human/deific/fae nature as having sexuality, but there is no smut nor is the focus there. Definitely is there for amusement!

Romantic subplot included — slow-burn from the beginning (you won't even know who) with doubt and anxieties to tackle, but has inevitable resolution.

- Third-person POV
- Leveraging unusual abilities/ creative problem-solving
- Geeky, sassy, snarky, but lovable MC
- Pop-culture references
- Potty-mouthed

If you’re tired of grimdark nihilism and hollow power fantasy—if you’ve ever wanted to see a saint crack, cry, and yet still choose to fight—then step into Two Souls, One Saint.... more>>

---------------------------------------------------------
She’s a twelve-year-old saint blessed by a goddess.
He’s a burnt-out software engineer from Earth living rent-free in her head.
Together, they’re about to reinvent medieval civilisation—one divine mishap at a time.

Brigid was a pious noble girl living a peaceful village life, chosen to become the next saint. But after she succumbed to rabies saving her little sister, everything changed. Lucas, a sharp-tongued ex-programmer who died on Earth, was sent by the goddess to possess the dead saint-to-be… and ended up saving her instead. Now, they’re two souls stuck sharing one body. It’s awkward. Very awkward.

But behind the divine hijinks and sarcastic inner monologues, danger looms. The Horde is at the gates. The neighbouring state is already under siege. And Lucas? He’s busy building semi-automatic rifles out of medieval tech, summoning modern weapons with his magical girl spirit blades, and trying not to freak out when the maids scrub him down at bath time.

With godly politics, Modern X Medieval warfare, and magical tech support, Brigid and Lucas must outwit scheming lords, belligerent invaders, and the occasional lightning bolt from an angry war god.

Because in this world, miracles are real. So is gunpowder.
And the Saint of Merchecna isn’t playing by the old rules anymore.

---------------------------------------------------------

[Pacing & Genre Advisory]

This is a slice-of-life isekai with a slower, thoughtful pace. Rewards are earned, not handed out. Power takes time, side characters matter, growth—emotional, politics complex, and technology from scratch. This is the heart of the story.

This is not a story of ego-tripping overpowered heroes.
This is a story of what it costs to stay kind in a world that rewards cruelty.

- Morally grounded high fantasy with reincarnation, fallible gods, and divine politics

- A male/female protagonist pair with courage, empathy, and fallibility

- Found family, asexual romance, and multicultural world-building

- Cost of power, explored moral tension, and mercy in the face of vengeance

If you enjoy stories like Ascendance of a Bookworm, Mushoku Tensei, Spice and Wolf, or Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, you’ll find a lot to love here.

Expect:

Military Innovation – Building semi-auto rifles and artillery using medieval tech.

Strategy & Logistics – Force deployment, war planning, and leadership under fire.

Food & Culture – Introducing Singaporean, Chinese, and comfort foods to a Celtic-inspired society.

Politics & Reform – Rebuilding despotic systems through democratic theocracy and constitutional struggle.

Fantasy Tropes with a Twist – OP main character (with limitations), subtle anime nods, and a platonic harem with depth.

Themes include: tech-from-scratch, governance, emotional nuance, cultural fusion, and the long road to rebuilding a broken world.

In the heart of Aurora Caeli, a magical land woven with ancient secrets and bound by fate, dwells Orion. But he is no ordinary inhabitant. Within him rages the autonomous Phoenix Flame System, a power so vast it can obliterate cities with a mere whim.

Journey with them through a world steeped in deep lore, where the shadows of the Eternal Phoenix cast long tales of fate, destiny, and the cyclical dance of time. As they navigate a path fraught with isolation, fear, hope, and desperation, they'll confront the very essence of power, growth, and the ties that bind.

Dive into a tale where rebellion simmers, knowledge is the greatest weapon, and love can either be a beacon of hope or a chain of oppression. The cycle has been set in motion; can they break free? <<less

Yaihan was his village’s most talented cultivator. A decade ago he was sent to continue his meditation on a secluded island off the coast of Xiwao.
His cultivation is cut short when he receives a message saying that his home country is on the verge of being conquered.... more>>

Upon returning, Yaihan finds the land barren, villages destroyed, and the country overrun by the Oni-Zhen; an army of monstrous demon and human hybrids that are over twice the size and strength of the average soldier.

Despite their formidability, the average Oni-Zhen is no match for Yaihan’s power. Even though his training ended early, he still has a slew of powers and abilities at his disposable through channeling his chi through the earth.

Along the way, he’ll have the help of a trio of Purifiers; women who can turn into powerful magical warriors with the use of special amulets and access to a wide range of elemental spells.

Together, they’ll take back their country, one demon stronghold at a time.

Those trapped players, all starting from scratch, rose up to be heroes of the land in their epic journey to find a way back home.... more>>

Cut off from her precious master and no longer restricted to her forest, Elsaline has made it her goal to regain her connection back to her master no matter who gets in her way. Unfortunately for the world, she's an insatiable battle maniac who, in particular, loves to kill players.

Years after the fall of the tyrant Rykard, peace reigns over the reborn kingdom of Elaris. Auren Veyl, once a war-scarred soldier turned reluctant hero, chooses a quiet retirement while Queen Aurora, the mystic who once saved his soul, rises to rule the land they bled to protect.

But on the night of Aurora’s coronation, a woman appears — one who claims to be from the future.

She brings a chilling warning: In time, the Queen will defend the world... from him. <<less

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment — tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena’s gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings.... more>>

When her deception is exposed, Elena’s world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans — pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries.

From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena’s journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances — a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it.

But as the hunt closes in and a single map — older than any empire — threatens to upend the order of the world, Elena must face an impossible choice. To protect what she loves, she may have to destroy everything she once believed about truth, power, and the very shape of the Earth.

Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Mapmaker’s Daughter is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world — they define it — and how one woman dares to redraw its lines. <<less

A satiric fantasy following Randy Ditty, a soldier in the Amricean Army, during the advent of the Kreyan War (1955).

Vealand's jewel twin cities of Portin and Brinhold fell to terror fourty years ago. During their fall a man rose up and saved them. He took the survivors of the fall of the Veaish coast and brought them inland, setting up his new empire inland in the mountain stronghold of Fiell. ... more>>

The Emperor singlehandedly saved the people of Vealand. Everyone knows that and everybody in Vealand adores him as a hero and the savior of their nation.

Dren though, says differently. As a Memory Mage and the leader of the Rebellion, he's desperate to prove that the Emperor is a false savior. He bets his life on it.

He fails that bet and fails in his last attempt at transfering his memories into the mind of one of the Emperor's Inquisitors. Now it's up two the two most unlikely people, Aris Ravenscroft, the head of Fiell's city guards and Kestrel, a street rat, to save Vealand from a monster that it worships as a savior.

Notice, this is a High Fantasy novel, there are no LitRPG or Cultivation elements in it. <<less

A Miraculous Journey With Thor And Hisstory is not a typical web novel; it’s traditional literature in the vein of J.R.R.
