In a world where rank, blood-ties and religion are intertwined; Silika Everest lived an idyllic life as the third child of the Marquess of Oblon, spending her time causing trouble for the estate servants and playing with her siblings to her heart's content.... more>>

Until a fateful day when a game of hide and seek turned into tragedy. When she woke up, her life had turned on its head, everything she had now slipping away from her.

That day her quiet life began— an unforgiving life where all odds are stacked against her.

****************

Hi there! This is my first webnovel story! I hope you will enjoy it and help me make it better!

I try to keep my chapter lenghts between 1,500-2,500 words

The story will follow Silika, the young daughter of an aristocratic count who becomes handicapped and must adapt to a world not designed for people in her situation. She will have to struggle through her disability, religion, family, abuse, trauma and politics. The world will not be kind to her, but she will find her place.

The tone is a bit darker at times in this story, but not in 'edgy' or 'grimdark' ways. They reflect the main character's struggles. There will be happy times, funny times, but also sad times and painful time. The main character will grow and learn in what I hope will be a very interesting experience for you all to read! <<less

In a universe where some civilizations thrive and others struggle to survive, a hunger for power and dominance has long driven the Manskligs, or humans. But when their reckless pursuit of progress leads to their inevitable downfall, their xenogenic neighbors learn a valuable but misapprehended lesson: adaptation and innovation are essential for survival.... more>>

As technology and genetic mutations give rise to near-omnipotent embodiments of science and pseudoscientific theories being researched, a young alien-hybrid named Miya Yuna will soon discover unfathomable powers laid dormant or just now coming into creation.

Join Miya, a newly inducted Patroller of Gala Fol, on her journey through a universe of interplanetary growth, while also learning the dangers of unchecked progress where the impossible becomes increasingly possible.

Those fools under-powered my summoning ceremony and I was 'left with the bag'. With inadequate soul potential, I've had to curse myself to create an opportunity to live, perhaps live well in this new world. Or...maybe I just totally screwed myself. Even the goddess got curious when she realized what I had done.... more>>

“So, she finished. I wonder what took her so long to decide...WTF! Interesting! Let’s mark her for further observation to see how things turn out. This girl is perhaps the most entertaining thing to happen in the last few millennia. Hmm, let’s mess with her just a little bit. Tweak this here...and...a little over there. Heheheh. This will be FUN!"~Goddess

She tweaked my status settings after I had spent so long on them just to make things a little more entertaining. Well, at least she only changed some cosmetic and semantics stuff. None of the vital parts of my status were ruined.

Kenn has powers, it's not a weird ability to have in this world, rare, yes, but not impossible. Superheroes exist in this world. So how about he gave it a go? Helping people doesn't sound so bad. However, the thing that may hold him back is his power because at best, it's mediocre, but in truth is nothing more than a party trick. What is his power? Well... If I told you everything now, it wouldn't be a story, is it?... more>>

I'll try to update weekly. <<less

>> The story of a soldier and a rebel as they unravel the mysteries, plots, and lies of everything they've ever known. ||BL Fantasy Adventure||... more>>

...

The world is shadowed in the remnants of its past splendor; Creator's splendor. When the One True God fought Envier to stop him from destroying humanity, many of the glorious temples and towers that Creator had helped build were destroyed. After subduing him, she secluded herself away in heartbreak and the ruins were left; tragic monuments of grandeur humanity can never recreate.

Kiol is the Society's best soldier. He killed the Cult of Envy's leader and eradicated her nest. He does what he's told without question and his targets always fall—without exception. Until he chases down Nirin in the middle of a raid, the boy whose life he spared once already and finds himself inexplicably saving again. He feels a connection to Nirin unlike anything he's felt before, even knowing the boy is a cultist and a rebel. But bringing Nirin into his life engenders a complex web of emotions, secrets, and lies that changes Kiol's life forever and forces him to question everything he's ever been told. <<less

With her mother slowly wasting away from an incurable illness for ten years, she lives every day with her like it's the last.

Until one day...he didn't. <<less

Something tore the old world apart.... more>>

Nobody knows what, when, why, or how. All that's left are dried remnants of the past and the birth of a new, savage, cruel world. Subjek woke up right at the cusp of a turning age for this desolate landscape; two roaring factions vying to take control of a new civilization. Amidst the chaos Subjek embarks on his journey towards his own humble goal; to bury the ashes of his maker.

You know the story by now. Young, female, heroic, powered by love and friendship. A goddess or other powerful being offers help so long as the heroine will fight for good. But then all this new power and responsibility end up putting strain on her personal life. Unfortunately, the world doesn't bend over backwards for every hero. Unfortunately, sometimes, things go wrong.... more>>

A couple pieces of information about the tags. There are three magical girls, one is mute, another is transgender. The plan is to get them time to shine. Currently they are just there, and I haven't really given any hint that the transgender one is transgender. I wrote this in less than a day, mostly yesterday. The rape is treated as a crime, and is a crime in real life. Do not attempt, and do not take this as endorsement. The rape was so uncomfortable to write that I couldn't finish all I planned for that section and cut it short, after procrastinating it for a day.

This is planned to be short. Maybe another 4 chapters total. This is not me attempting to get any profit, this is me getting to the point where, thanks to quarantine killing all my D&D, my various world and character building got so mishmashes in my head I had to get some of it out somehow. That said, I always welcome criticism as it is how you can improve at most anything, so any comments and criticism is welcome. I will probably post the rest as I write it. I cannot draw, so unfortunately I do not have an image to use as the series image. I am bad at names, so I apologize for the uninspired name for the story. <<less

Half human half vampire girl ends up in a fantasy world with a system. She comes from a world that's similar to the real world but with supernatural stuff and maybe magic.... more>>

…Just ended up having this idea and wrote it down. Don't really have grand plans for this, but maybe it'll turn out to be something. System is derivative of another I've had going on in my head for another story. <<less

It's several thousand years into the future. Earth maaaaay have been through a little bit of an apocalypse or two, nothing much, just a complete shattering of Reality itself is all. Urban legends, folklore, cryptids, fantasy tech, magic, super powers, psychic abilities, the list goes on and on, and all that is paranormal is now made... well, normal, really. It's much like today is, only the tech is a little fancier, the wildlife more magical, the world a little weirder, the continents are a different shape, the moon has a HOLE in it, improbable events are a daily occurrence, and humanity looks a little bit different, but survive humanity did.... more>>

~~~

This story focuses on three main protags, all three of whom have been transformed by the world they live in, literally. Together they will explore their world, and hopefully find what they're looking for and the safety they seek.

[The Lost One] Nebula, the slime. Once a human, Nebula was transformed into a slime after getting lost underneath the Big City and losing all their human memories. Now, they wander the haunted woods of Big Forest, looking for a place to call their own.

[The Sweet One] Cherry Maraschino, the candy ghost. Insta-killed in a dimensional tear which heavily damaged her essence, a demonic contract and a little temporal manipulation later patched her essence into a ghost straight out of a horror movie. Sure, she may be completely incoporeal now, but at least the skirt is cute, right?

[The Silent One] Sprigg, the plant spirit. Once human with a cursed voice, an encounter with a dryad took care of both the curse and the humanity, getting adopted in a rather... unusual way, removing her ability to speak, among other things. Its not so bad being made of vegetation, really, if a bit slow and quiet.

We have always wondered if there were Gods or higher beings. ... more>>

We always thought that these beings would love and care for us.

However, we were wrong.

When we stopped believing in them and their existence, they were angered since our only to use for them was to extract our faith and turn it into an ambrosia-like substance for them to consume.

With our usefulness gone, they decided to use us in a different way. To watch us struggle and suffer for their entertainment.

After being transported to a new world along with the rest of humanity with only the clothes on his back, Devin Santos is now faced with a choice.

Will he lay down and surrender to whims of the higher beings, or will he rise to the top of this new world he is in, no matter the cost? <<less
