A million years ago, the Western Continent was forever changed by the establishment of Yi City, the largest nation in recorded history. Split into many districts, it was the greatest accomplishment of its creator, but its glory did not last long.... more>>

Now, it is separated, and even those connected to the ruling families may be reduced to servants. Yi Wei is one such servant, but even when she isn't being ordered around by the likes of her aunt, she struggles to make any progress in her cultivation. Her own talent seems subpar, and the strange, inert characters floating around within her dantian don't help in the slightest.

However, her life will be changed by a simple accident that will set her onto the path of growth and discovery. The Planar Continents hold many mysteries, and the path she has chosen gives her no choice but to investigate them, for that is the Path of the Ascendant.

(Sexual content will not appear prior to Volume 2. Futanari will not appear prior to Volume 3. The main content of the story is already complete and chapters will be released daily, with exception of bonus chapters, which will come out alongside main chapters. Bonus chapters are being written right now, and once they're done, I will move on to a new novel which will feature more sexual content and futanari, in case that's what you're interested in.)

In the Avalyne Empire, there is only one way to achieve greatness: exhibition matches. Those who possess the power to bestow god-given gifts known as Crests stand tall and proud as nobles, supporting their knights who wade into battle for the sake of glory, victory, and honor. Knights and nobles alike study and train at Avalyne Academy to hone their skills and participate in academy-level matches, all while forming lasting bonds to become fully-fledged pairs.... more>>

Among those students is the so-called "strongest knight" Medrauta, yet despite her title, she hasn't managed to win a single match. Instead, she's impressively racked up over two-hundred losses within the course of the very first month. However, when she's faced with the prospect of expulsion due to various circumstances, her life gradually begins to change.

As Medrauta struggles to truly become someone worthy of the title "knight", she gains new friends, hope, and experience.

He awakes in a pit of corpses, and wakes up as Robert Oswald, an Enforcer working for the Commission Against Supernatural Entities who has fallen after going after a den of cultists.

If not for one of the many crime syndicates on the City, Kato also constantly finds himself at odds with the declining supernatural entities and the occult.

"His name was Daimon. I rather have him a pleasant-sounding name. But he was a demon, just like his name. Through and through. He enjoyed our suffering with a pitchfork and a black wavy tail on his sulfur-filled habitat." Simons gnashed his teeth.... more>>

"I looked at his side profile. Charming and serious. Girls always loved a handsome and cool feminine boy. But grownups always picked the serious type with a sense of humor. Just like Daimon. His eyes closed. The flutter of his eyelids seemed more elegant than a woman’s. His tasty lips. Well-fit body, as masculine as Adonis. I could look more and more, and I couldn’t get enough!" Karen thought while unconsciously licking her lips.

“MOTHER FUCKER!” Arnold seethed and wanted nothing but to mutilate this bastard! He could care less about the plan! Only by killing Daimon he could face Xiao in the afterlife!

“Jeez. You scared me!” Agathon said to the man who was carrying a coffin on his back yet he looked like he was in a park. Still, the weariness in his face stood out. "When I glimpsed your figure from the distance, I thought I was seeing God. But then, I saw your eyes. I also thought you are a Ghost. But with your vibrant complexion, I crossed it out.”

Five moons rise over Evanir, each in her own cycle, and each moon is also a god, one of five sisters.... more>>

Many gods create spirit attendants and companions, brought forth fully-formed. Long ago, the moons worked together to create a lineage that are, instead, humans transformed by the mingling of blood.

They intended them to be long-lived and to draw their strength directly from the light of the moon who chose each individual. The five sisters had different goals in mind – one wanted it to be a blessing for scholars and artists, to give them more time and fewer physical distractions; another wanted them to have an animal form, different for each, to keep them more in tune with nature so they could serve as guardians of the wilderness.

There are drawbacks to their children having human lives and personalities before being chosen: not all share the goals of their divine mothers, and some choose to put their gifts to darker uses.

A few carry the blood of one woman who fled the corruption in search of a quiet life. Some joined the family by choice, some by accident; they come from highly varied backgrounds, and have diverse skills. Looking out for each other, unable to settle anywhere for long, they try to help humans when they can. Ultimately, there is no greater threat for them to tackle than the other children of the moons.

-=-=-=-=-

Moonblood isn't so much a novel as a series of adventures of varying length. They involve a core group of people, which does grow over time. They take place in a low-magic world, but despite that, our core cast are directly connected to the moons and have various abilities, including limited shapeshifting to a single individual animal form.

As with all my work, unless gender, orientation, or other aspects of sexuality are explicitly stated, I suggest not making assumptions. Probably most significant, I think, is a major trans character who appears about 80K words in - no spoilers, just a note for those who care about that one way or the other. <<less

Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called back into service after a gifted scientist loses everything.... more>>

Is she serving her country? Or is she just a pawn in a great game?

Orivar is a web novel series set in the distant future. Humanity has all but mastered the exotic material known as omnium, the most common of which is called orivar: the original variety. That clear crystal is a transmuter of mass and energy, and the very existence of contemporary Civilized Space depends on it.

Deep Black, the first book in the series, begins a classic story of light versus darkness. A novel variety of omnium–one with the potential of sending Civilized Space crashing down–is stolen from a research station just beyond the Federation border. Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called to command the fastest starship ever made to chase the thieves and retrieve the stolen sample. Meanwhile, enemies both near and far vie for the omnium sample and the advanced technology powering her ship. Can Atara remain loyal in the face of seeming betrayal?

The time has come. The story begins again... more>>

Five thousand years ago, Amneris Topanga sealed Enliatu in the Void, the place between places where no one can return from.

A new threat has risen to the Dark Throne of Terpola, causing the hunt for the ten items to begin. The stakes: Enliatu's freedom and the destruction of Creation as he brings in the Age of Darkness - the mission he failed to complete five thousand years ago.

“You sure about this?” I looked dubiously up at the towering gate in front of us, surrounded by trees.... more>>

Hector shrugged. “Did you have another destination in mind?”

“Not a city?” I suggested without much hope.

Hector narrowed his eyes at me. “Where else do you suggest we find work? We’re soldiers. Besides, this one has trees. I thought you liked trees.”

I scowled up at the massive redwoods like they had personally offended me. “Cities don’t deserve trees.”

At that moment, I never would have guessed that I would still be there two years later, holding the rank of Captain and investigator, willing to lose everything for the people within its walls, and plunged into a conspiracy that threatened to take all that I loved. <<less

A young provincial thief of no particular renown has his life of crime changed in a day. He ‘stumbles’ upon a huge pile of gold for starters and soon after a dead man carrying a letter of 'royal' interest. Literally. While at it he ‘earns’ a title of sorts, along the promise of a life out of the gutter. Before he can properly appreciate the dramatic turn of his fortunes, he’s drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that threatens to embroil two continents in a devastating war.... more>>

The whole affair seems to cry out for a gallant hero of old, or failing that a cunning diplomat, but he’s neither. Perhaps a lying scoundrel, which our lad definitely is, would have to suffice. He does ‘acquire’ a dagger that knows a dead language after all and that must count for something.

The Demon King has decided to quit ruling The Great Floating City of Arcadia and give it to the humans and non-humans. He no longer has an interest after he had gotten everything he wanted in the world. After he left, his subordinates thought that he was already dead. But it was just his puppet. As for his actual body, he slept in his room for eternity since he wouldn't die.... more>>

The Demon King's favorite toy is his puppets. Because of those, he became a total shut-in in his room. While he was in his eternal sleep, the hero woke him up through his dead puppet. Forcing him to come after her, get out of his room, and destroy that puppet.

When he came out of his room, no one recognized that he was the Demon King as he always used a puppet. His subordinates didn't know that he was the Demon King they followed. Concealing his true identity to his followers, he soon realized the current life they've had after he left. A new chapter unfolds as he experiences the new world around him.

As I have already written in the title, this series is subject for a rewrite. I've taken into considerations the comments and suggestions the readers have sent to me through different mediums no matter how plain or absurdly cruel they are, I must accept that they wouldn't leave such comment if they weren't interested in the first place. Whether I like it or not, I must rewrite the whole story.
