We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course.... more>>

At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory.

Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order.

It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone?

Yes. In a heartbeat.

Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time.

When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life.

Serenity.

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

While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges.

The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has.

Of course, that's only his second priority.

A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way.

The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured.

The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery. <<less

Having the power of a god isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. On top of handling a god’s many responsibilities, Alouin has to contend with the fact that reality is quickly coming to an end. Isn’t that just wonderful?... more>>

Fortunately, Alouin has help in the form of allies from five, separate iterations of reality. It would help if they would get with the program and actually, you know, help, though.

The Eternal War:

Raimie has been living a nice, boring existence in a safe corner of the woods until he comes across a random sword in the forest, and after that, everything changes. On the run from a powerful magic wielder, he’s forced to accept that he’s the last heir to a royal line, foretold to cast down the ancient evil suppressing his family’s native land. The invisible beings trailing his every step, along with the suspiciously magical anomalies they prompt in him, aren’t helping with that goal. Oh, and if that weren’t enough, the nightmares he’s had all his life have twisted into something weird and yet surprisingly familiar.

Thank the gods for family and the new friend he’s made along the way. Maybe things will turn out ok, if he could get a moment to think.

Oh, nope. There’s another threat coming to wreck his life. Time to run again.

******
This story was initially released on Royal Road.

It will start out very stereotypically for the first few chapters (for epic fantasy at least). If you can tolerate a couple of seeming tropes (i.e. the Chosen One etc.) for 5 or so chapters, I promise that The Eternal War will diverge into much more interesting storylines. I like writing slow burns, taking my time to establish characters etc., before getting into the exciting bits of a story. I also thoroughly enjoy trying to subvert tropes, although how successful I am with that is up to the individual reader, of course.

I will update the book every day until volume one is complete, and after that, I'll switch to a Wednesday/Saturday release schedule. <<less

When the nameless protagonist wakes up in an unknown world without memories being a slave to the Baron, a so called "Adventurer", is the least he expected. He soon finds out that "Adventurers" are players from another world, a "real" world somewhere out there, who have completed the video game that is this otherworld by slaying the final boss. However, the whole playerbase is still stuck in this game which they now have to call their new home. After the death of the great hero Arslan, the Godslayer, they split into two groups: The Heavenly Union in the west, which lives in harmony with the inhabitants of this world, and Carnifex in the east, which... more>> sees the NPCs as a means to an end for their ultimate goal.

When the Nameless is the only slave released from captivity he is willing to quest for gold to buy his friends free. He sets out on an adventure which might bring back his memories while at the same time making him the great new hero of this otherworld. Raiding bosses, leveling up and looting gear are all par for the course when uniting the players and NPCs alike to take another shot at killing this world's gods.

"I Woke Up In Another World As A Slave" is a debut web serial in the Isekai/LitRPG genre by two student buddies (IgLu Books) exploring class divide, comeradery and heroism in a player-run video game world long after the final boss has been slain.

Chapters come out every Tuesday and Friday at 6 p.m. CEST. (Approximate chapter length 900-1100 words) <<less

In 2045, with almost everything and everyone connected to the network, the trust in its security and reliability is paramount for the society to function. Many agencies throughout the world spend significant resources to keep the citizens and properties safe in this environment. In Japan, Section 9 of Public Security works to investigate cyber criminals and prevent cyber threats.... more>>

Esaki Purin dreamed of joining Section 9 and protecting people since one of the members of Section 9 saved her in her childhood. But she never expected that her first case on the job would be to investigate her own murder while coming to terms with not being human anymore.

The FF is set in the GITS:SAC universe instead of SAC_2045 (so SAC_2045 AU). So a few years after S1&S2. All SAC S1 and S2 series pretty much left as is, but there can be minor differences in the past events, like Section 9 is already back together. There is basically no plot from SAC_2045 (seriously, sustainable war? 1984? geez), so it doesn’t contain SAC_2045 spoilers (kinda..), but most of the characters are the same, and their personalities mostly as they were. You don’t need to know much about GITS or GITS:SAC to read, though some surface knowledge would help getting into it easier. The main character is Esaki Purin, because I love her. There won’t be any straight ships, only girls (and enby) love! There will be OCs or characters from other GITS.

The cover is one of the official SAC_2045 posters. <<less

Aidan was bringing his military career to a close, after a little over six years of fighting on an earth now littered with dimensional tears.

The next moment, Aidan awoke in a clearing with no idea where he was, or who he now is. ... more>>

Planned Release is once a week.

Any feedback whatsoever is appreciated; I want to do the best I can for this story.

At CH9 the story shifts perspective from multiple first person perspectives to only the mc first person and third person for the rest. Eventually those chapters will be reworked.

This is my first work so i apologize if your eyes glaze over at any point.

But this sleep was not really eternal, it was all due to the assimilation of the Night System which was assimilating with his body.

Author's notes

Hello, I am republishing the novel after rewriting it from scratch. I have points to clarify about the novel.

1- The novel has spelling mistakes which will be corrected as the novel progresses.

2- The novel is slow in progress, but I will try not to take too long to reach certain points that we all expect.

3- For those who want to read the previous version, since this version has many of the previous one but this time the themes have been polished in a better way you can read it in the patreon for free (In these days I will put them for free). <<less

Sneak Peek:

Next to the kitchen, there was a small squared table and two wooden chairs, each made from different wood. The bookshelf behind those contained a decent amount of books.

I stood up to take a closer look at them and even opened a few out of curiosity. While I could read most of them just fine, some of the oldest-looking books were written in a language I didn't recognize.

"Hm? Was my hand always blue?"

I didn't remember. In fact, I couldn't recall anything about myself, not even my name. Inspecting the rest of my body, I found that it was the same all over. I didn't feel sick; quite the opposite. Still, my blue skin felt out of place for some reason. Trying to find an answer to my situation, I kept investigating the odd room.

Thomas was your bog-standard high-school kid; approaching the end of his senior year, he wasn't quite sure what he wanted to go into in college, but that was fine, he had time.... more>>

Well, perhaps not as bog-standard as all that; his parents died around his tenth birthday in a tragic plane crash, and he was taken in by the grandfather of his childhood friend, Ellie, whose parents had died in that very same crash. There was something...different about the grandfather, more specifically his occupation - despite living in the middle of nowhere with nothing of import within miles, he somehow had some incredibly confidential job that neither Thomas nor Ellie knew anything about.

Until shortly after Ellie's eighteenth birthday, that is. The grandfather took them to a fantastic world known as The Outlands, where he revealed that he was the head of the Freelancer's Guild, and made preparations to show the two the ropes of freelancing.

But...when their stats were measured, things took yet another turn. In a monumental coincidence, it turned out that Ellie had the best stat growths possible, immediately marking her for stardom, while Thomas had the worst possible. Such misfortune would usually mean that he was wholly unsuitable for the business, but...the Goddess of Fortune had seen his bad luck and took pity on him, granting him her strongest blessing.

And, thanks to that blessing, he soon found himself on a path of great change, both for himself, and the world as a whole...

To the Creshe Empire, I’m just a number.... more>>

I’ve spent the past five years in isolation and under study. With my home razed by a Syldrari attack, my mind damaged, and nothing but white walls and a viewing window around me, I dedicated myself to two things: training my body, and reading any book they allowed me to have.

The Empire wants me to serve, to use the inhuman power the Incident stirred within me. Technically, they asked, but it wasn’t much of a choice. It never is. Serve, or… I refused to be a mindless slave. My life was taken from me once. Never again.

With the Empire moving forward with their xenophobic plans, they needed someone capable of killing Syldrari—and I was just that. A tool they could use, a tool they thought they could manipulate. Needing me was their first mistake. They gave me leverage, I named my terms.

Now, after five years, my life can begin. <<less

Everyone has a bit of magic in them, even on regular old Earth. But it's difficult to find that power when you can’t find yourself. ... more>>

Erick is just a normal dude who is definitely, positively, probably not transgender (no matter how envious he is of other trans girls). Or at least he that’s what he thinks, until his best friend shows him a trans femme forum.

Maybe she could even deal with all this gender stuff, if it wasn’t for the fact that she’s also started having weird hallucinations of a far off world. Is she losing her mind? The warrior girl who starts to share her thoughts and perceptions doesn’t seem to think so. In fact, it seems she knows a lot more about their strange connection than she lets on.

A story of friendship, plurality, magic, romance, and the power of self love.

Authors' Notes:

General content warnings for the story (they will still be labelled in each chapter): shitty parents, neurotypically ableist language, and trauma in the context of a dissociative system.

In a dying universe, a supernatural being chooses Atlas to save the multiverse from collapse. The threat comes from the increasing number of heroes being reincarnated into other universes. Atlas is tasked with hunting down these heroes, who have been granted powerful boons that make them nearly invincible. Atlas must rely on his wit and surprise to take down these powerful foes, and each new universe he enters presents a unique challenge with a different power system to master. With only his experience to aid him, Atlas begins his mission to save the multiverse. Will he succeed, or will the heroes prove too powerful to defeat?... more>>

This story will feature dynamic character development, with a focus on character interactions rather than solely on the whole hero buisness. The Mc will also not always get what he wants or needs. He will only be able to fight the Hero with abilities he can reasonably get, and naturally, each universe he goes through will give him more of an advantage compared to the common people, but the real Heroes will always have something like classical fanfiction heroes, which means powers like Devil Fruits, Haki,  Ninjutusus, systems, cultivation, powerful bloodlines, magic, Marvel or DC powers, an inbuilt AI or other weird but powerful abilities. 

P.S.: I don't own the rights to most universes that will be explored. <<less

Or, that time I got magically turned into a succubus at the Fir’va Academy of Dark Arts.... more>>

The summoning circle was ready. Each sigil had been meticulously drawn. Candles lined the edges, and the golden chalice awaited his sacrificial offer. Gellin Zelian was ready. Almost instinctively, he knew that he stood on a precipice. Though whether it would be his first step toward power or the beginning of his downfall, he wasn't sure. What he was certain of was that, for better or worse, it would be a... transformative experience.

A smutty 18+ trans story with plot! This is a reimagining of the original Succubus Tail, starting out with the same concept as the original but quickly diverging into its own story. (This is not a sequel, and reading the original story isn't required.) The smutty parts are admittedly a bit sparse in the first few chapters, but pick up later! While there is a lot of nudity, teasing, and such throughout, I've marked the more *explicit* chapters with an [E].

However, growing discontent leads to the creation of Divine Puppets, humanoid objects meant to house the deities and allow them to directly act in the world. The following chaos causes the people of Maharnak to wonder if giving powerful otherworldly creatures free reign wasn’t the right idea…... more>>
