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.)

Aperio had been a slave for as long as she could remember. She toiled away in the palace of her masters, her body forced to obey, her mind no longer caring that she did. Her only joy was the small inconveniences an error in her work could bring, the resulting punishment a small price to pay. When the news came she was to be sacrificed in a grand ritual, she welcomed it—for most, death was a cause for grief and mourning, but for Aperio, it was her only way out.... more>>

However, during the final stages, something went wrong. Fate intervened, and Aperio found herself in a world she no longer knew, with powers beyond her wildest dreams. No longer a slave to the Empire, she set out to find her place in the world, and enjoy true freedom for the first time in her life.

The Sister Continent is separated from her Brother by a vast and challenging ocean. The city-state metropoli that dot the Sister Continent are divided by constant wars and their desire for domination. Built over the ruins of past empires, this has been the way of the land through the ages. The industrial revolution of each city-state brings with it tidings of new technology, faster transportation, deadly weapons and the threat of great battles beyond the likes the world has ever seen. High walls and deep trenches make combat a brutal affair. This, however, is only secondary to the Aspect revolution heralded in by the Fable Talis Ranis himself, the greatest Savant in the land. Thought... more>> to be one in a million, the mysterious and powerful Aspect are magical superpowers in which only the enlightened may unlock, that manifest uniquely in each individual able to awaken these dormant abilities. Those with the talent to unleash them have the potential to impact the world.

For Hales growing up in the imperial city-state of Garghent there are few options other than work as a soldier. Her existence could be summed up as days wasted dreaming about stars and nights spent in restless insomnia. Clever and fiery, Hales is forced on path which threatens to split her mind into fragments when faced with two events that will alter the course of her life forever. The first is her acceptance into Garghent’s new high school guaranteeing the awakening of an Aspect at the cost of permanent service in the military. The second is an encounter with a quiet boy named Deo who wanders the city picking strange flowers. When all out war is declared, a draft is issued pulling the innocent boy into the service of the military and forced to fight and kill or die for a cause he does not believe in, Deo must make a decision. But what choice he really have? For in him is the Aspect of Death and pushed too far he may embrace his dark side, beginning his march against humanity while gathering all sinners under the sovereignty of his Villain Throne.

Author's Corner:

Welcome to the Legend of the Seven series #LOTSseries, my Guardians.

This is my first novel turned webnovel. I'm returning to this fictional world after a 6-year hiatus with a lot of personal growth and insight. Insights gained from being a lifetime reader.

I was the kid who read Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I was the new adult who read I Shall Seal the Heavens and Ark. I've lost count of how many fictional worlds I've visited and lived through for I grew up on western novels but discovered eastern novels in my college years. This is my attempt to marry those two literary styles.

It's my hope that this journey becomes more than just a book. If you're reading this simply expecting an ego power trip then turn back. There'll be action but with a lot of metaphysics and discussion on life with its accompanying issues. I strive to ground and make this webnovel relatable with verisimilitude.

This webnovel is about choice. Freewill and its consequences. I give my characters autonomy to do and be themselves which sometimes leads to me rewriting and replotting because of pleasant surprises from my characters. Even the character who dies within the chapter they are introduced can have a massive impact with several ripples. So, there'll be stories on love and loss, hope and despair, but most importantly, it'll be a story.

Release schedule: M, W, F - I aim for afternoon (1pm to 6pm) MST.

I'm working on a project, codenamed "Guides' Sanctum", to make LOTSseries even more alive with special voice-overs, extra stories, behind the scene stuff, and so much more. But it can only come online when certain benchmarks are reached. The listed goals will help us get there.

Goals:
50 readers will unlock 4 chapters a week - Extra release on Thursday
100 readers will unlock 5 chapters a week - Extra release on Tuesday
250 readers will unlock 6 chapters a week - Extra release on Saturday
500 readers and Project Guides' Sanctum comes online!

An Original Urban Fantasy Survival Story about growing up during reality transitioning into a fantasy. Not Weak-to-Strong--A constant struggle, very flawed and vulnerable storytelling. Reader Beware. ... more>>

A new era of human history, due to the influence of the Shift Noumena--a cosmic event that warps reality, the focus is on this emergence of fantasy into the "real" world, eeriely like our own. Waves that warps to undo matter in it's wake, creatures that shouldn't ever exist do, and the damaged locations becoming twisted realms where nothing makes sense. To make thing even more complicated is the advent of siVis--"modern enlightenment" that gives the victim cosmic abilities similair to the Shifts, but aren't related.

They're living through this. They're growing up during this. And they're going to try to make an impact in all this, but it's going to be an emotional journey, versus the heroic tale they want to have. <<less

This is a reality eerily like our own. This is a reality that somehow produces fantasy. This is a reality that life has physically changed. ... more>>

This is a reality further complicated by fantasy.

Their fantasy is the Shift Noumena. Instead of monsters, they have the Nulgarrt. Instead of sacred and ancient lands, people watched their own homes warp into Terminsys Cities. And magic? siVis. And it's a lot more crazy, a lot more mindbending than what they're dealing with now.

We join five young women, trying their best to stay away from all of this, only for them to finally have their first experiences. They're gonna have to be forced to grow up, through these confusing and turbulent times. A weird and emotional journey, versus another heroic tale. <<less

Palantine and Co. is an unusual company that does its work in an unusual field. But it's attractive enough to out of work Gary Bellamy, and offers decent pay and a good benefits package. But there are a few things a little strange about the local office. The CEO is perpetually out of town, apparently in search of ‘Enlightenment’. His co-workers are involved in research and investigations involve the likes of Bigfoot, ghosts, walk-ins and other supernatural phenomena, for who its not quite clear. It all seems a bit dodgy to Gary but again, good benefits package.... more>>

Ephram Palantine is having problems of his own. His search for Enlightenment hasn’t been going all that well, has lead down some rather bizarre rabbit holes. It's about to get a lot worse.

The employees of Palantine and Co. are themselves hoping their new hire is exactly what they need. Otherworldly phenomena is on the rise. A seven year old girl has gone missing in northern Michigan, and they are sure it involves something that happened to Gary when he was a boy, thirty years ago, not to mention that there have been sightings of same identical dead man on a Lake Erie beach now for several decades. Some might call what Gary and his co-workers are about to get involved in to protect humanity from a world whose borders with other realities are fraying at the edges, incredible and perhaps even insane. Some might call it a mission. <<less

Before reincarnating, the deceased soul had acquired a guidebook to living in the world of immortal cultivation, on accident. Now living as the hedonistic nephew of a sect elder, Yan Xiaolong tries his very best to survive in a world where men fly on swords and girls are made of peerless jade.... more>>

“Why are these young masters so arrogant?”

“Why are these beauties practicing ice cultivation?”

“Why are the restaurants so dangerous?”

In this new world, Yan Xiaolong must try his best to make more friends than enemies to live safely, befriending both martial heroes and sect villains along the way. In this new world, Yan Xiaolong must try to avoid flags from other characters or else he will attract the wrong attention for being too close with a girl.

In this new world, Yan Xiaolong must fight his way across hordes of young masters, their fathers, their grandfathers, their great-grandfather, their great-great-grandfather, their ancestors, and their godly progenitors to finally achieve the legendary goal of a relaxed power fantasy life with hot babes and cute pets on a farm.

A story of trying to be sensible in an insensible world.

A normal 20 year old living alone in his boring normal world with nothing to do, somehow gets thrown into the world of One Piece as a Riolu.
