Greed.... more>>

A single word of five letters but with the potential of destroying whole races.

In a lost past, the races living on Pandora got too greedy for their own good and tried to tweak with a technonlogy that shouldn't belong to them.

Even now, hundred of years after, people still suffer the effects of this greed.

Having lost their home planet, the inhabitants of Pandora now are confined to spatial stations, floating around their now in ruins and inhospitable planet, they face a miserable situation for more than a century now.

Problems with population, problems with food, problems with magic, problems, problems, and more problems plague the population and the threat of extinction is more evident than ever before.

Amidst such chaos and whirlwind of problems, Akihiko, a reincarnator, finds his way into this world. Having his novelty about reincarnations into game worlds broken first-hand, he now tries to not die in this hardcore world.

Chosen among the yonger generation, he along with other students from the Academy are sent to Pandora, to learn and participate in the desperate struggle to have their planet back.

However, his situation might not be that easy, with him being a man in a yuri-themed eroge game's world, and also being childhood friends with the protagonist.

Hello there, I hope you're having a wonderful day!

First, I'm going to address some points:

1- If you want to support me, you can buy me a coffee at: ko-fi.com/kyle_kingsmaker (it costs only $1). Toss a coin to your author;

2- I'm not a native speaker, so I apologize in advance for grammatical errors and such. I do use Grammarly but there is still going to have a few here and there;

3- This is my take on a reincarnation into a game trope, it's more of a simple side project I'm doing and it might seem generic but do give the first few chapters a try, you might find it interesting;

4- Constructive cricism is welcomed, but be respectful with me, the other readers and yourself. If you post hate or review with hate, just know that I don't bother leaving it there since there's no purpose in doing so;

5- The current update schedule is sporadic due to some things IRL, with the chapters being 1.500 to 2.000 words on average.

6- If you could also support me on Webnovel by either commenting, leaving a review, or with power stones, I would be thankful;

7- Lastly but no less important, I use AI-generated images but also images I find on Pinterest. The ones I find on Pinterest, I don't posses the rights over them and will hence, put the source for the image. If you're the owner of one or more of those images and wishes for them to be taken down, please message me via comments, review, or DM on Discord.

Also as a side note, the cover was found on the Pinterest and I only edited the size and wrote on it; the link to the image on Pinterest can be found in the Discord community, as well as the characters' reference images

"A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it."

Sorry the description is a bit generic, This is my first ever story I've always wanted to write one but i kept on procrastinating again and again, so I've decided to jump into writing something and by something i mean a fan fiction to get me going. This is an experiment so please forgive my inexperience and any grammar mistakes since English is not my first language.

Name any type of media, trope, or genre - Alize Oh has probably seen it.... more>>

A tired, sleep-deprived student and martial artist who only finds her joy in fiction, she finds herself transported into a generic subgenre of webnovel. A dime a dozen. The problem is that she finds herself in another. And then another.

In the name of all that is good and pure in this world, how much does she need to go through?

Luckily, even if she hasn't read this specific story, she's consumed every variation of these kinds of media and now she has the uncanny ability to predict which way the story will go and which way she needs to nudge it to end in her favor. And even if she can't predict it, she's got less of a regard for self-preservation than recommended by the normal physician. That added to a high pain tolerance and the emotional well-being of a pressure cooker filled with pennies and foil and set to max for eighteen years can be a hell of a combo.

Forget keeping to canon. Pride won't let Alize make it easy for whatever or whoever is out there to kill her. A little help from the system and her fists don't hurt either.

Currently: The Oracle's Penance

Oracles were known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator to give guidance to the people. What does it mean if the title of Oracle is bestowed upon an individual? A call for adventuring, dungeon diving, slaying monster, right? Maybe. Before an individual named Kihet, An Enui from a secluded village could fulfill his dream of embarking a grand adventure, a tragedy from his past returned to haunt him.

Kihet couldn’t remember much of an unfortunate accident that left many important hunters and loved ones dead. He only recalled a vague memory of a mysterious man etching a cursed symbol on him and recited some words from an ominous book in hand.

"For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested.
Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials.
Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk.
Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world."

What does it mean? Does it relate to the mysterious Tower only Kihet and his friends could see? What dark secrets unfold as he tried to look for answers?
