Ah, yes, 2121. The second year of the decade of opportunity.
Genetic studies have produced major scientific breakthroughs and now we have new species walking... more>> around like one of those old, but still very popular Star Wars movies. Cat girls, monster girls, you name it.
2121 was basically the early 2020’s, but with some brief, extreme changes.
Technology as well had improved since what people described in 2021 in my History class, but while spam was solved, it didn't stop hackers, especially the famously notorious trio known as PLAGUE.
It didn’t stop a hacker like me either. But unlike PLAGUE, I was a nobody. I wasn’t noticed. Hell, I was still a schoolboy finishing my last year of high school!
Just like technology, my status as a nobody didn’t stop me from doing what I was about to do. <<less

If Uno were an anime...
The people at the Uno card game company had an idea to increase sales: What if we hosted a tournament for schools? We can get kids to buy the game and sell advertisement fees for broadcasting the tournament!

Adam, Sofia, and Lidia are childhood friends attending Zamenhof High School. Lidia’s father was sick with a rare disease that costed a lot to cure. All three of them were rather poor, but they all didn’t want Lidia’s father to waste away in the hospital, so they desperately tried to find a way to make money. They decided to start an Uno club at their school, so they can enter the tournament and hopefully win the ten million-dollar first prize. They thought it would be something low-effort, either they didn’t win or they did, and they could also have fun along the way. Uno is a simple card game that even has an elementary-school division. Surely, there isn’t too much strategy involved. Little did they know that there was a lot more to Uno and the competition than it seemed…

This is a story about Uno, where underneath the kid-friendly surface lies a game full of strategy and a game full of cheating, threats, and backdoor deals.
This is also a story of three friends, who have to balance friendship with desire and guilt with greed, as they begin to question what they truly want in life. <<less

At 12 years of age, Ramu was the most geekish boy in his class and was ostracized by his classmates, but it was still all fine as he was the Math teacher's darling. So no one dared to pick on him. In an effort to live up to the teacher's expectations, he studied, studied, and studied even more.

But, it was all for naught as this was what led to his downfall. Things started changing when he started to observe the faults in the teacher's explanations. His respect for the teacher started crashing down. And all hell breaks loose on the day he pointed out flaws in the teacher's explanations. Instantly, the fortunes reversed, and although he became the most popular guy in the class, he also turned into the teacher's enemy number 1.

This place called school became a hell-hole for Ramu. Everything he once knew had crashed down. So he shut himself down in his own room.

One day he started seeing weird dreams of constellations approaching him to make him his disciple. But by then, his trust in elders has reached level -1 and he said no to all of them. Then, one night, one of constellation challenges him to a math contest and he loses... hard.

"Aah... So you are average too. Nobody can beat me after all", the constellation remarks.
Hearing the exact lines Ramu thought about others being directed towards himself, Ramu retorts, "No I am better. I can beat you. I will."
"Ohh!! Then become my disciple and beat me."

And in the desperation to salvage his pride, he makes the biggest blunder of his life... signing a pact with the Devil himself.

Now at 15, he has made a name for himself among the community of [Special People] [The Gifted], yet revenge is still a far cry for him.
In the meanwhile, he is assigned a disciple to train. Will the disciple help bridge the gap between him and the constellation? <<less

Izuku was never born, he was created and programmed, as well as others that were created to hide his identity and theirs as well by them acting "normal".... more>>

The first and most successful project was him, I-M-1, otherwise known as Izuku Midoriya. The others had similar names, except with a different number by their initials given to them.

And although they were all programmed to act normal, they did have their own free will, to a certain extent. And though they had free will and acted normal, they were put into grades and Izuku was the highest grade out of them all. The Grades were Common, Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare, Legendary, Ultra, Ultimate, Supreme, and Origin. And Izuku was the only Origin of his group.

Heaven's Will definitely existed. If not the case, then I wouldn't be able to explain why I was reborn. Why was a common old soldier like like me given a second chance?... more>>

What about my comrades? Did their karma not allow the grace?

I immediately knew why I was reborn. It must have been to kill that damn psychopath who was eating people to prolong his life. That reincarnate who called himself 'Gilgamesh' and a demigod.

After sharpening my abilities, I finally met him face-to-face.

He was as l'd expected... A demon required no mercy. He drained the blood of the living, and I sent him to the afterlife to pay for it.
However, my plan had failed.

The result was the destruction of my whole world.

Everything I knew vanished, and everyone died in an instant. I didn't know how he did it, but this cannibal had a trump card in his death.

My story should've ended there...

"Hey, handsome, are you finally waking up?" l'd opened my eyes in new flesh. Feeling like my memories and body were incomplete. I felt a breathing mask while submerged in a tank of strange fluids. This scene made me theorise...

...that my life from now on wouldn't be the same.
Now I had to pretend to be that psychopath's clone.

Pretend I didn't have memories of the past.

In the merciless urban jungle of Tarturus City, time is slipping through the fingers of a group of desperate souls. As the noxious fumes belch from the city's underbelly, they find themselves ensnared in a merciless temporal loop, each one meeting their demise in an unyielding sequence only to be reborn again afterward. Amidst the looming, neon-drenched skyscrapers that dominate this dystopian cityscape, a clandestine organization that is reminiscent of an old insurgency hunts them relentlessly, stalking them like prey to make sure they always die on time.... more>>

Saran, one of these tormented survivors, wages a tireless battle against the odds to rally his fellow captives. Their minds deteriorate with each grisly death, their sanity hanging by a thread as they suffer the agony of repeated brutal reincarnations. Defiant, Saran forges onward, driven by his unwavering resolve to shatter the digital chains that bind them to this vicious cycle.

The enigmatic organization that orchestrates this sadistic game presents them with a cryptic challenge that taunts and goads the survivors at every turn. The nonsensical message is as perplexing as it is provocative, searing into their minds and fueling their desperation to defy the insidious forces that seem to control their very existence, if only out of desperation at this point:

'You Can't Save Sam.'

In a gritty, neon-painted world where trust is scarce and hope is a fleeting luxury, their harrowing journey will test the limits of human resilience and the power of redemption. Will Saran and his allies uncover the truth behind this ominous message, and can they overcome the seemingly insurmountable odds to break free from their tormentors' grasp? Or will they be lost forever to the endless maze of the city's dark streets, rained over by flakes of rust from the skyscrapers around them?

Castor Online was created by the AI called Matrix, which used broken data stolen from a breach to shape the people in the world. Matrix knows that the coming people will be worse than monsters, so she divides the NPCs to mold them with misguided, fragmented ideals.

The White Eyes are coming, and mother has only ever wanted the best for her new world and has allowed a NPC named Rhune to be given Administrative privileges, but only at Matrix's discretion.

During the last ten years Rhune has been a Castless, like many others who were not able to summon magic, since his 12th birthday. As Rhune was treated as if he was garbage, things changed suddenly for him, and the life that he had known was shattered.

It is estimated that PCs (Player Characters) will enter the game in one year, which is 36 minutes in real life. Before that, the PC White Eyes are preparing to enter Caster Online, and some drastic changes will be taking place as the NPC's are altered, and their landscape as they prepare for this event. <<less

I uncapped the bottle of the chilled water to drink directly from it, only to someone clear their throat to notify me of their presence. Out of reflex, I turned rapidly and pour out the content of the bottle I was holding, almost emptying it at the intruder.

The intruder —a male intruder to be specific —hissed in reaction to the cold effect of the chilled water, I was almost befuddled, because my brain was tricked by the exquisite beauty and handsomeness of this person, I mentally smacked my brain to think normally.

I then tried screaming, but the person was quick to react, covering my mouth with the big palm of his hand, I was almost drooling, because of the close proximity and the cologne he was wearing was quite enticing, my next reaction was to kick him in the groin, which I succeeded to the point.

The man toppled-over with a Yelp because of the pain he was in from my kick, I took an escape, practically flying my way up the stairs to my room, then locking the door behind me ...
