Darrah, your typical unwanted daughter from the main wife of an aristocrat, got adopted by another aristocrat and got herself stuck in between the tale of two immortal lovers. Will she play along the path they created or swept the whole story clean in the process?... more>>

A comment is left on an Instagram post that changes her perspective on her life and her marriage

It's not that Darren Laneth is different, just that he... thinks differently than other people. Because they are just that, other people. Two different groups, a level of mental separation. And yet, because of a little separation, he doesn't know what to do with his life.

...

What constitutes as 'human'?

Is it how we act? How society views us? The very makeup of our bodies? This is not what he sees. What he sees is a question, a question that he's been searching the answer to his entire life, elusive and yet all around him. It is what defines a human, what they always strive for, no matter the situation. When given the ability to search for the answer, the only thing left is to take it. The story of Darren, who loses the thing that matters the most to him and searches ever harder to the answer.

Tell me,

What is happiness?

Hey, tried something new for this competition! Wanted a less fleshed out beginning and more understanding as you advanced. Thank you for the support, and I hope you enjoy! Also, putting in some tags, even though I might not use them. This story will have immoral things, so for those looking for a safe, filtered story don't search here. Also putting the harem tag, because I don't know, maybe? It's not completed, it's a WIP!

Lust overwhelmed Mirai Shizuku as she ventured the world of Terra to discover what kind of purpose she was sent here.

A strong and talented soul was formed and as usual for newly created souls, went to reincarnate. This soul was someone who was preordained to benefit society in their world, in some way. As a world renowned doctor, a genius pianist and artist, a natural actor, a righteous and compassionate general, an assassin who only kills evil, and a hacker who exposed hidden crimes and gave justice to their victims, etc. But something unknown messed with his fate. ... more>>

The doctor created a zombie virus to destroy the world, the pianist was driven insane, the actor was killed earlier than expected and was hated as a coward, the general became a mafia lord who killed people without blinking, the assassin was molded into an emotionless doll who only knew to do as ordered, and the hacker only cared about entertaining himself even if he toyed people to death. All of them had unexpectedly become a villain.

A system who kept the multiverse in check wanted to stop him from continuing like this and help him, but it was already too late. His soul had splintered into six parts from his six miserable lives. So the system decided to let him experience happiness in different worlds to fix and fuse him back together.

The system was satisfied with their choice until they saw...

"Why are they becoming the villain again!?" <<less

One day going by his usual life, after some ridiculous events, MC finds himself reincarnated into being a rock... But the silver lining is that he has a "status" in a world of magic and fantasy. Though does that matter if he is completely unable to move or do anything for that matter. Find out in the next episode of... Just kidding. Of course he will find a way to "move" and stuff.

Anyways I will add references and funny stuff whenever I can to keep the story away from a boring Isekai fantasy. There will be an alchemy system, a skill system, a magic system and few more(with time) creative quasi-scientific systems. I don't know a lot about alchemy systems in Isekai fantasy stories so I may fail to create something unique to experience in that regard but I have to humbly ask of you to forgive me, since this is my first novel ever. Though, you can roast me all you want as long as it's constructive criticism.

From the 8th chapter on, I'll be introducing our second protagonist. An oppressed noble girl that had faced the realistic side of the world with gullible expectations.
Even if you haven't liked the story, I truly appreciate for you to read up until here. Have a great day!

To live a quiet life away from high society, 14-year old Alex left home and created a new identity. She changed her name as well as her gender. ... more>>

The catch? She'd lose it all if anyone found out.

To prevent exposure, Alex stayed in the side lines and avoided unnecessary interactions. Her cold demeanor drove the other students away. They eventually learned to leave her alone. After that, it didn't take long for two years to pass by as she spent her days in blissful peace.

Her secluded life had kept her safe. 

Until…

That shattered when Logan Parker caught her with extensions in her hair, make-up on her face, heels on her feet and boobs in her dress.

Not one to give up, Alex needed to fool him.

But how?

How will she keep this web of lies afloat? Will her true identity stay as a secret? Or will her borrowed time be over? 

Take a peek and discover the biggest secret in this fiction world!

Welcome to THE GOLDEN AGE... more>>

The popular MMORPG that draws its players into a world of super-hero adventure. But when thousands of those players are actually drawn into the world of the game, confusion and mysteries abound. Why were they brought here? And is there any way to return to the real world?

Luckily, Robin Sinclair is Knightblade, one of the game’s top-ranked players and a founding member of its most respected players' guild. Unluckily, she was brought into this world as her alt account, a nameless level 3 noob with no powers, no gadgets, no place to stay and no influence on the new world, with her own reasons for keeping her head low and her distance from her old friends.

To get by, she teams up with three other noobs — good-natured Tisha, sardonic Will, and bright-eyed Carter (who is way too young to be playing this game) — to eek out an existence in a world ruled by comic book tropes and video game logic. But for true heroes, those with the will and drive to defend others even at the cost of their own safety, there’s no resisting the call for long… <<less

Life was hard and... Cruel.
That is how Rue Sweet Lee saw the world.... more>>

From young age, she already faced death...

Once.

But, now?

It's coming to take her again.

'Truthfully I really wanted to laugh at her reaction that time, but I wasn't able to, because everything hurts, every parts of my body hurts so badly.

I just then realized, that I was really dying. It was really my end after all, but I told myself,

"Well, at least I won't need to endure, and suffer with this family anymore."' She thought.

All her life she was alone and pained and burden by the misery of being alive.

The only thing that was keep her on going, was her almost finished Otome Game, titled 'The Strings Of Love' that she considered as her only 'friend'

But, death was like a gum stuck to her

"BAAAM!!"

While laying on the floor, dying the only thing on her mind that time was.

'Oh no!! Is there any hidden target!? No!!! I wasn't able to know if the rumored Hidden Target do actually exist!? ...'

A story of a girl, who face death once, now twice, and even now waking up and found herself reincarnated and given another chance in life again, was once again still forced to face death once more.

"Death! You know what!?? If you keep hunting me!! You'll really be the death of me!!"

This is her story when she decided to bow down to her fate and bow down to face her death.

And be the Main Villainess of her favorite Otome Game, which whose death was already predestined.

So, What can she do now?

"I have decided to be a Sacrificial Villainess, to give them a route to their happy end…"

"But…"

"Hmm?"

"How about your happy ever after then?"

"My happy ever after?"

"Yes"

"Ohhh… But, I'll be having none."

"But, Why?"

" I'm not worth it. Besides I'm nearing death's door anyway"

A girl who saved everyone…

"You're not alone."

But, who...
Will save her?

"Goobye... Everyone"
She walked away

Like a dream, she silently faded…

Out of their life…

Out of 'his' life.

"LUNA!!!"

Countless people chase power, fame or to be rich.... more>>

In fact, it's the same for me. Coinciding yet conflicting goals. Because, it's quite clear, to get fame you need to surpass someone else who has fame. To get power, you need to beat those in power. And to get rich, you need to get more money than the person "you" consider rich.

And naturally, to become the best you need to surpass the "better".
