What a wrong way to reincarnate after being murdered by one's best friend!... more>>

Nekohiko's throat was slit as he was ascending his throne as the Supreme Divine Emperor. A moment later, his murderer claimed that very throne for himself. To add the insult to the injury -- Nekohiko's name was erased from all the history books as though he had never existed.

Driven by intense resentment, Nekohiko refused to die. He reincarnated. He had to find out how someone who loved him and who he loved back could destroy him so utterly along with everything Nekohiko stood for.

The only problem was that he reincarnated as a... tree. No, much worse than that. A cut tree. A simple wooden log sent to a workshop to be shaped into, let's say, a table, or a chair, or maybe -- if fortunate -- into a bookshelf for the new Emperor.

Until Nekohiko meets a soul that understands his pain and is willing to help a poor tree log gain shape that is far more fitting for a human bent on nothing but sweet, slow revenge.

Or, even better -- several shapes.

I will release a chapter every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

See the Glossary for more Information about the romance (ML section). Or in general -- for pictures and miscellaneous stuff about the book. ^^

The story is a slow burn with plenty of twists and turns and will involve a lot of mystery-solving to understand the motivations and goals of different characters. Action sequences will happen when the plot calls for them, but they will all require buildup to greater impact. The main themes are emotional and psychological explorations of identity, desire, fate, and intent. Characters will grow and develop across present arcs but flashbacks to provide context and mystery clues to their behaviors will be in order, yet without overpowering the present narrative (Flashbacks are episodic slice-of-life and do not have their own plot line).

She accidentally stumbled the New World Online 2, VR version of NW and from there, she started to play the game with the intention of earning money. 

Countless enemies were standing in front of her as she joined the battle between the people around the world. Asia, Europe, South and North America, Africa, Australia and Antartica, in these continents only one can gain the glory. Only one can create a legend through the whole continent of NW2.

Four years ago, Alex was one of the first players of an experimental VR game called Rune, where death came suddenly and all the players had were a pitifully small health pool and a few runes nobody knew how to use. Today, the situation is better: Crafters manage item creation in the cities, while Fighters take those items into the world’s portals, slowly expanding the reach of civilization in spite of the randomly appearing monsters.... more>>

Whichever way you look at it, aren't these a recipe for disaster? Fan Shuangxi did not expect she will transmigrate one day, even more so in a novel series she heard but never read. What’s more tragic is it’s a BL universe! Lah! As a woman who transmigrated wouldn’t that mean she’s going to be a cannon fodder?!

Granny: Do not worry, my lady. You can still return home
Shuangxi: Please return me home ಥ﹏ಥ
Granny: There is one tiny condition

The Action packed adventure of the gorgeous, but evil superhuman agent, Jaakuna Warasaki. Her skills in infiltration and sabotage, coupled with her deadly fighting abilities, make her one of the most dangerous secret mercenaries in the world.
Growing up in a rather rough and tragic environment thanks to her crimeboss father, she joins the evil mercenary organization, Kurai Yohei, as the top agent. However, after stealing top secret blueprints to advanced energy weaponry, she even develops ambitions to take control of not only her own organization, but the entirety of Japan in an effort for revenge on her pops.... more>>

The only one who may have a chance to stop her and the organization is her former best friend/private super detective, Naomi. Will Naomi's skills be enough to stop the evil Jaakuna, or will Jaakuna crush and dominate society as we know it?

Inspired by a myriad of anime and other fictional shows/movies. So, while it is not a fanfiction, many readers will probably be able to pick up the similarities and references to other anime. For example, the evil organization, that was inspired by groups like the Akatsuki from Naruto, the Espada from bleach, and the homunculi from Fullmetal Alchemist.

Contains: mild sexual content, violence and language, equal to a p.g. 13 rating. <<less

When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix.... more>>

Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive.

But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question...

It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right?

[Things to expect:

- A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes.

- Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now.

- Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments.

- I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇

- Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea.] <<less

In this world, there are haves and have nots. The former are pureblooded humans, some of whom are capable of manipulating qi, the mysterious energy that flows through every living creature, to miraculous results that defy the laws of nature and physics. Wen Feili was one such cultivator. However, she allied with the have nots- the anthropomorphic hybrids incapable of channeling qi-and dabbled in forbidden demonic arts, seeking to change the very composition of reality. This did not end well for her, and she was consumed by her own flames. ... more>>

A decade later, far in the northwestern mountains, her daughter Wen Fengli is working as a lowly servant of the minor Shuangshan sect.

However, since she's part-human, part-wolf, it's just a pipe dream.

....or so she bitterly thought. However, one day a mysterious amulet that belonged to her mother falls into her hands. A deranged old master, a terrible conspiracy, a mysterious past? None of that matters to tomboyish wolfgirl, who only seeks to become stronger. She embarks on a journey of adventure and self-discovery, towards the mysterious southern lands where pure demi-humans are said to live...as spectre of war once again envelops the world of man.

This is a Chinese-themed fantasy story set in a fictional world. You can classify it as xianxia, if you wish, but it's a rather low fantasy variant; the heavenly realm is silent, no one reached immortality in generations, and magical artifacts of old are locked away and feared. Magical beasts and spirits have been driven to the corners of civilization, and "ordinary" abilities such as flying or controlling swords through telekinesis are considered spectacular feats. The main plot of this book revolves around a kemonomimi girl who seeks power, no matter the cost.

This is book 2 of the Evangeline Sayagawa "Zeroth Knight" story, with book 1 being found here: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/54937/zeroth-knight/

The first "chapter" posted here is a hyper-condensed version of volume/book 1, in case anyone needs a generalized refresher of events, or for those who wish to start with this book instead as it is faster paced and more action-packed than the first one. Suffice to say, but most of the details from book 1 are lost by doing this; however, enough of the more-important information is present to allow one to understand the general idea of what is going on.

This book features a mostly lesbian cast and deals more so with fate and crises of identity more than anything else. However, there is much more action in this one than any of my other stories thus far and brings about the end of Evangeline Sayagawa's story arch... sort of.

Konoshira Mai is a tester working under the entity responsible for managing the creation and health of new worlds. A single world can have thousands of simulations alone making tedious and boring. The boon is a seemingly infinite lifespan in exchange for giving up your old life. This exchange is more than worth something as ‘small’ as writing off a little thing like lifespan according to the {World System}. Not everyone is suited to this type of work and training is expensive afterall!... more>>

This was all deskwork with digital visualizations of the data until what seems like not long ago to Konoshira. Suddenly, mental health in the workplace became a major concern after centuries of such tedium. Konoshira was a rare and talented office worker who excelled and even enjoyed this mundane work.

Konoshira was promoted to her chagrin as part of the control group. Her and roughly 100 other employees received a {Nanny System} and now directly enter simulations rendered as if they were real worlds. These {Nanny Systems} were also programmed to make this new variety of tests as easy to understand as possible compared to stark data. Konoshira has spent the last 10 years confronting tasks to either protect, destroy, or redirect {Plotlines}.

Should she consider herself lucky that she was assigned to the partner group and hadn’t had to tangle with these messy subjects alone?
