Even the gods will come to fear divine retribution.

To avenge her family, she will first need to gain far more power through study, training, and undertaking missions for her new patron.

Soulless is a series of books that describes the clash of a modern-day Earth with an epic fantasy world. It focuses on exploring their differences in culture, mentality, and philosophy, highlighting misconceptions and misunderstandings that arise between the two.... more>>

Imagine a shonen sports story. But, it’s not about baseball or soccer. No, this one is about playing a MOBA video game!... more>>

And no, it’s neither League of Legends nor DotA. A BRAND NEW ORIGINAL MOBA, the one MOBA to rule them all - Classmancers!

The game has become so big, that even schools recognize it as a sport. They even allow students to participate in Classmancers clubs and compete against other schools! Who will be the one going to nationals!?

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

For Yuel, a team sport is like a chessboard that comes to life. There’s no greater fun than deconstructing every opponent and predicting twenty of their moves in advance.

And, Classmancers is the ideal stage for such psychological warfare, for it’s a sport in which game theory reigns supreme. At least, usually, it does.

There are also goofs like Lars, who got -200 IQ, yet boast godlike mechanical skill that triumphs against all odds. He’s like your typical OPMC which a cheat, except the cheat does nothing for his intellect.

Yuel and Lars are like water and fire. In other words, 100% compatible! That’s why they form an unlikely duo and set out to dominate Classmancers’ competitive scene!

However, to challenge their OPness, the two will run into rivals who are just as OP! Some of them will turn their teammates immune to Yuel’s psychological attacks, while others will redirect Lars’s almighty strength against himself.

In this harsh environment, the two will keep struggling, struggling, and struggling some more, following their promise to reach the pro scene.

Zaina Quin is an ordinary young woman working her father's farm when her life is turned upside down by the impending end of her world.

Aren't you tired of the typical cultivation story, where an isekai'd person comes into the world and becomes a brutal or selfish person? I know I am. So instead of being fully changed by the world, I want this protagonist to stick to their beliefs and help to change the world (and people) for the better. There will still be main character development and tests of those beliefs, but I want them to maintain that aspect.... more>>

Brief Synopsis:
American is thrown into a typical Xuanhuan cultivation world where the masses of the people are typically sacrificed for the abilities of the few. This is meant to be an alternate take on how protagonists approach these worlds. Main character comes into the world w/ scanning, healing, and monster taming abilities.

The schedule is 2 chapters/week (Tue & Fri) at 11pm. Please like, comment, and follow, as that helps me to gauge interest in the series.

Final note: I notice that many cultivation novels treat abuse or sexual assault as a throwaway tool to set a stage. I think the way it is normally done is both lazy and a disrespectful to victims. If you have any suggestions on how I can improve the way I've done it in this series, please let me know.

I want to do this the right way.

This story is not of one of them.

Do you have a dream? Who hasn’t, right? But do you have what it takes to pursue it?... more>>

Ever since childhood it was my dream to travel the world; experience new things; meet new people. It, however, couldn’t be – my severe illness gradually limited and finally destroyed each of them: from going to the North Pole and seeing Aurora Borealis with my friends; through going camping in neighbouring forest with my family; to just leaving the confines of my room in the hospice and craving simple human touch. My terminal illness slowly took everything from me, giving me only misery. And when I had nothing more to lose – it finally took my life.

That would be the end of a story – but by a sheer cosmic coincidence, a powerful entity picked up my lost soul and gave a body of my dreams: strong, fast, vivacious, beautiful – a perfect body. Then I was left in a completely new world – one brimming with magic, unknown creatures, breathtaking scenery, and various peoples with vivid and fascinating cultures.

I couldn’t realize my dreams in my past life. This time, I can do everything I ever wanted – and fulfil even desires I had no idea I had.

Jason has just moved across the country to study at a small private academy for his last year of high school. After a bad breakup, the last thing on his mind is romance.... more>>

But then it turns out every girl in his school is a cute animal hybrid, women outnumber men ten to one, and he might not even be in his home reality whatsoever, so we'll see how long that lasts.

Full warning, the protagonist is a sweetheart, but he starts off the story a bit more thorny. Poor boy's had a rough year.

Waking up horny isn't exactly anything new for Evan - but it's not usually so literal!

...And waking up as a girl is kinda weird, too!

~~~

Evan's days are simple. Wake up, go to work, get drunk, hit the bar, head home for the day. It's a monotonous routine, but it works. At least until he gets lost on the way home, tries to cross a river drunk, bangs his head on a rock, and... wakes up as a muscular female oni in fantasy-land feudal not!Japan?

Join Evan - now Ella - as she attempts to answer a question that no pointy toothed oni has ever dared to ponder before:... more>> Rather than eating people to get stronger, couldn't I just eat them out?

(Good luck with that, Ella! Surely not 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 you meet will assume you're an enemy out to consume them... Right?)

Hunter has always been a little different from everyone else. You wouldn’t know it just by looking at him, but those who do know have always looked at him with fear and even disgust. It isn’t his fault. He was born this way… born as a psychic.... more>>

Throughout his life, he’s helped several trans women hatch from their eggs, using his powers to figure out just the right way to push past their denial: his best friend from high school, a college roommate, a rival co-worker… it’s almost become a hobby for him. He isn’t sure what it is about him that attracts eggs or what it is about them that compels him to help.

Into Hunter’s life now comes Mark, a perfectly average kindergarten teacher who has always lived his life dealing with intrusive thoughts, strange mood swings, and inexplicable sudden changes to his habits. When Mark gets kicked out of his home, he ends up taking the first available room that he can find, becoming Hunter’s new roommate and fast friend.

Hunter knows an egg when he sees one, or at least after he’s read their mind. Although Mark’s thoughts are chaotic, they definitely aren't the kind of thoughts that a normal cis man would have, and when Hunter dives deeper into that mind he’ll find out just how right he is about that.

There’s an entire world inside that mind, full of people that his roommate isn’t aware of, and for Hunter, this might just become the ultimate egg hunt. <<less

This newfound power excites Aeon, transforming his mundane school life into a world of possibilities.
