A young farmer's son, Oscar, is content with living a peaceful life, but by fate's whim, he is found to have the potential to become something greater, an Exalt. A special class of humans who perform miraculous feats and lord over others. Despite his shortcoming and slow progress compared to the geniuses around him, Oscar holds determination as his shield and persistence as his blade. ... more>>

A quick note before the synopsis: This story is not written in the style of a novel. I've seen the style being compared to a DnD campaign so if that's not something you would enjoy reading, you probably will not like this story.... more>>

EDIT: As of Chapter 639, I changed the writing style. It's much closer to standard writing now. I'm not sure if I will go back and update all previous chapters to the new style. It would take a lot of time and I would rather spend that time writing new ones instead of changing old ones.

Also, I write this story for my friends to read and Scribble Hub is a convenient place for them to read it instead of me sending them the individual documents for every chapter. So, you can read it, or don't. It doesn't matter to me. As long as I enjoy writing it and my friends enjoy reading it, that's all that matters to me. This story was never originally going to see any kind of public release. Now for the synopsis.

BTS 1 Synopsis:
118 years ago, Earth was ravaged by a major war between the forces of Heaven and Hell. Now, a young man named Zeth, who has just discovered he has magic abilities, finds himself faced with helping Heaven to prevent another invasion of Earth by Hell. Zeth and his new friends must journey through the world, different dimensions, and the divine realm to put a stop to the threats that face the world and perhaps answer the biggest question of all, what caused the conflict between Heaven and Hell in the first place? This is a journey that must go beyond the stars!

BTS 2 synopsis down at the bottom.

***

Beyond The Stars is a story inspired by battle shonen mangas (as well as my enjoyment of romance) but is darker than shonen stories usually are. I began writing it in November 2014 and the story is still ongoing to this day. The story is fully planned out so nothing I add is done as I go. The only exception is the moment to moment parts of fights. Consider this story a "word manga" as I write this story like it would be an actual manga.

Also I love the use of foreshadowing so always keep an eye out for anything that looks like foreshadowing.

I do make use of Scribble Hub's Glossary feature where I will put the list of arcs (and chapter numbers in those arcs) as well as a list of characters and their descriptions. Currently, it only has characters that have been drawn but soon I'm going to take some time to add all of the characters.

BTS 2 Synopsis: (Chapter 575 and onward)

Following the defeat of the Dark Goddess and peace returning to Earth, the threat of the abyss begins to loom. Zeth, Sasha, and the other heroes must travel to other planets in the galaxy as well as the Divine World itself to find a way to stop it, or else lose the entire galaxy to the abyss. <<less

For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in.... more>>

The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless.

Yet fate had a different path in store for her.

For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being.

Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death.

She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath.

What will fate deal her next?

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

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

Expect:

-Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages

-World building

-Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures

-Occasional action

Do not expect:

-Much in terms of romance

-Politics, barring passing views and mentions

-A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one

Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated.

And thank you for reading.

"Argh, how did my life end up like this?!"... more>>

There was once a boy who's well-loved and popular with his peers. His smile could melt an adult's heart and his easygoing and sweet nature attracted a lot of girls who became his admirers.

Little did he know that such a blessed life wouldn't last forever.

Now, he is an ugly, overweight adult, working a job he doesn't like, and leading a life he doesn't want. No women want to be near him, let alone be his girlfriend, or even his wife. He is an oversized gear in a machine that doesn't even welcome him.

When he gets fired from his job, it is the last straw from him. He remembers his life as a kid, and now good and beautiful it was.

"I don't want this. I don't want this anymore!"

"I would be better off dead than having to live like this for a second longer!"

Suicidal, he passes by a flooding river, as there is a storm that day. He immediately thinks of throwing himself there, ending it once and for all.

And he does. But not because he actually has the balls to kill himself via drowning, but because he sees a little girl being carried down the river by the strong current.

In a split second, he decides that it would be better if she lives, even if he has to die in the process.

And he does. He saves her, throwing her into the side of the river. But then his legs, rarely ever used, suddenly cramp. He can do nothing as he is swallowed by the waves.

"Aah, it would be nice if I could be reincarnated into a fantasy world, like in those stories... I can do it all over, and do it better this time around..."

His wish is granted. When he wakes up, he's no longer his old, adult self. He's a baby, living in an entirely new world.

This is his story.

------

This story would have both happiness and hardships, heartwarming and sad moments, as well as romance that doesn't just end in a kiss. This is a harem story that will end up in a genuine polygamous relationship. It's also an adventure story, though it would stay as a slice-of-life for a good while as MC grows up.

“Family, precious beyond all worth, right?”... more>>

Elizabeth was promised the warmth of a family and sent into another world. What wasn’t promised was that she and her family would not be humans, but Monster Girls. Now, as a Slime Girl, she had to rediscover her place in the world. Fortunately, she had a family to help her go through everything. They would protect her from all harm, and she would do the same.

Because of such, she was the perfect candidate, a Monster Girl, an Otherworlder—everything was waiting for her.

In a world of swords and magic humanity fight against monsters for survival. ... more>>

Monsters are incredibly powerful with their own unique abilities and attributes which make them even more deadly they feed on humans to increase their own power.

While on the side of humanity humans use magic to fight against the monsters.

For those who can’t use magic they use magic swords a type of sword which has their own unique abilities, humanity becomes corrupted lost in their own power thinking only those with power gets to be at the top, while the weak are to be eaten.

However, the nobles of the Kingdom of Barat gave them a death sentence for being unable to pay they’re tax, upon seeing both his parents brutally murdered right before his eyes, the powerless Kenta vowed to get revenge on his parent's lives.

Thinking that the world is filled with selfish people who only cared for themselves this world has too much injustice doesn’t it?

Shouldn’t he change the unreasonableness of the world?

As for those who oppose his way of thinking regardless of whether their monsters or humans or even the gods themselves, the only fate that awaited them is death.

However, little did he knew that there were more in-store for his unforeseen future as his destiny was greatly tied to the "God of death" A powerful exsistance whose fate had ended thousands of years ago....

There is no pattern to dropping anymore but I try on Tuesdays. This is also the first web-novel I've written, so I really have no idea if it's even adequate. I literally only started writing for fun and a month later, I have now written enough for at least someone else to read. I'm really just talking about genuine social issues that apply to both my home nation and, not trying to be patronizing, Japan too within the confines of a romcom that's wholesome enough for someone to probably ignore the issues raised.

Thanks, if you're reading this and I hope you at least had a modicum of enjoyment, if you do read the story.

Also, I know Fukaze Honzo's name makes literally no sense <<less
