A life full of regrets.. but no sight of the fallen heart of a man.... more>>

Where did everything go wrong? What happened?! What did this... who did this...
What did I do?

A 23 year old in the life of a walking dead (or a neet), disinterested in modern life and oblivious to the wonders of humanity. Finds a Path.

"The internationally renown game company Crestfallen Industry has finally revealed the release date of Rising Essence!!"
"O-o-ooh?! What is this?! CEO of Crestfallen Industry, aka K. Crestfallen, has just revealed the release date for RE?! Just 3 weeks! In 3 weeks the 1,500 years of technology and planning has now come to being! We, the citizens of the New Earth in the 20th century will be the first to witness it!"
"K. Crestfallen has revealed the date for Rising Essence this morning in his account at 9:37 am, did he thought he was slee..."
"The most advanced technology will see light in 3 weeks at..."
...
'Huh?'
Eyes opened wide, disbelief crossing his entire being, the man with a regretful life made a call from the ultimate generation phone he never uses and traditionally throws away after a few days.
Heavy but slow breathing sounded and the tone of the phone marking, then picked up. "M..."
"..."
"..."
"...Yes?"
Taking an inaudible deep breath, he continues. "M-Mom, I'd like to get something..."

Something he had not the need nor will to ask for in more than a decade was once again heard from his mouth.

What a wrong way to reincarnate after being murdered by one's best friend!... more>>

Nekohiko's throat was slit as he was ascending his throne as the Supreme Divine Emperor. A moment later, his murderer claimed that very throne for himself. To add the insult to the injury -- Nekohiko's name was erased from all the history books as though he had never existed.

Driven by intense resentment, Nekohiko refused to die. He reincarnated. He had to find out how someone who loved him and who he loved back could destroy him so utterly along with everything Nekohiko stood for.

The only problem was that he reincarnated as a... tree. No, much worse than that. A cut tree. A simple wooden log sent to a workshop to be shaped into, let's say, a table, or a chair, or maybe -- if fortunate -- into a bookshelf for the new Emperor.

Until Nekohiko meets a soul that understands his pain and is willing to help a poor tree log gain shape that is far more fitting for a human bent on nothing but sweet, slow revenge.

Or, even better -- several shapes.

I will release a chapter every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

See the Glossary for more Information about the romance (ML section). Or in general -- for pictures and miscellaneous stuff about the book. ^^

The story is a slow burn with plenty of twists and turns and will involve a lot of mystery-solving to understand the motivations and goals of different characters. Action sequences will happen when the plot calls for them, but they will all require buildup to greater impact. The main themes are emotional and psychological explorations of identity, desire, fate, and intent. Characters will grow and develop across present arcs but flashbacks to provide context and mystery clues to their behaviors will be in order, yet without overpowering the present narrative (Flashbacks are episodic slice-of-life and do not have their own plot line).

For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in.... more>>

The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless.

Yet fate had a different path in store for her.

For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being.

Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death.

She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath.

What will fate deal her next?

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

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

Expect:

-Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages

-World building

-Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures

-Occasional action

Do not expect:

-Much in terms of romance

-Politics, barring passing views and mentions

-A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one

Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated.

And thank you for reading.

From this, he becomes a Chaos Butterfly whose wingspan encompasses everything from comic books, toys, animation, tv shows, video games, movies, music, even beauties... and MORE.

This is a semi-Hollywood story if that's what you're wondering.

This is a work of fiction and a lot of unresearched topics so don't bash my trashy work too much.

Also, this is just a fictionalization of things for entertainment and just sharing for free. Hope I don't get into much trouble for it and hope I don't get sued or whatever.

-The story isn’t grimdark, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows either. There will be lighthearted and positive moments, as well as some sad ones. That being said, it’s a whole lot more light than dark.
-This is a LITRPG story.

Author’s note:
-It can get very GORY. I’m somewhat desensitized to gore and violence. So while the story isn’t full of gore for the sake of gore, it can get a little too descriptive.
-The MC is a necromancer, so corpses and decay, and all the things that come with it, will be mentioned from time to time.
-I’m a huge fan of Egyptian, Slavic, and Greek mythology, so expect quite a bit of that. That said, so much is altered, you’ll be hard-pressed to guess how exactly it is being used.
-I love plot twists, as much as I love red herrings and Chekhov guns. Deus Ex Machina’s not so much.

Volume 1 - Memories. Cover art done by Gelowaggle.
If you remember something but no one is around to see it, does it truly happen? And if memory makes up your identity, what happens when you give that identity up? That was what 'Nowun' had to determine after agreeing to be sent to another world. A piling of coincidences and misfortune, the choice of an unorthodox power. If he wanted to avoid playing on the strings of the Goddess, he would need to circumvent her powers. And to do that, he made a gamble. ... more>>

However, that 'only hope' was a ruthless and nameless ghost who had his own agenda. Entrusting her fate to such a person... would Xinxin grow to regret her decision?

Volume 3 - Ego. Cover art done by Shirayuki/tamarin
What was right? What was wrong? Should he gather the strength to overcome the world itself, or be content in protecting those he loved?

As the cosmic game of Fate continues, an inevitable confrontation draws near.

High schooler Sawatari Mikasa has it all: An aptitude for sports, above-average grades, lots of friends, and a little brother that she loves more than anything in the entire world. However, after learning of the boy, Yuu's sudden hospitalization one fateful day, she rushes to check on him in a panic, and it all gets cruelly ripped away when her negligence throws her into the path of an oncoming car.... more>>

When she awakes, she finds herself before the being known as 'God', who offers her a second chance at life in a new world. She accepts, and only has one question:

"What happened to Yuu?"

But God would not give her an answer, and before she knows it Mikasa is brought to a world of magic straight out of a fantasy novel.

...

...However, she wouldn't be satisfied with that.

Having somehow retained all of her memories of her previous life, Mikasa — now Micah — makes it her goal to find out what really happened that day. Did Yuu survive, or did he die too? Was he also in this world somewhere? Even if she has to become God's enemy, or even that of the world's, she'll do whatever it takes to make sure her brother is safe.

He needs her, after all. And deep down inside of her heart, made fragile by events of the past, she knows... she needs him too.

"'Find Yuu' or 'Find God'. I don't care which comes first."

Micah's journey to find her 'Happily Ever After' had begun.

By some freak coincidence, Song Ci mistakenly consumed the blood of the Demon King, causing himself to become a demon too. A weak scholar…… forced to suffer in silence.... more>>

What was even more tragic was that no matter where he went, demons would attack him from all directions braying for his blood, or they would squeeze his neck while interrogating him about his relationship with the Demon King.

As such, Song Ci became an anti-fan of the Demon King. Regardless of who praised the Demon King, he would be the first to stand out and refute them.

Song Ci fled for his life as he searched for the gate leading to the Demon Realm. Along the way, he clung on to the thigh of an influential man, and went to great pains to persuade him to slay the Demon King together with him and restore peace to the human world.

Song Ci, “Sooner or later, I will skin the Demon King, rip the tendons off him, and drink his blood!”

Rong Bai (smiling), “I admire the way you think.”

Who knew that, after entering the demon realm —

Tens of thousands of monsters bowed their heads and kowtowed to this thigh beside him and shouted “Long live the Demon King!”

Song Ci was stunned.

Book 1 - JiangXi (complete)

Molam longs to return home after successfully stealing from the Empire. But the enigmatic Oracle dangles it just out of reach, assigning him another task: to steal wood from the sacred World Tree from the Empire.

The task sends Molam to an Empire city on the brink of collapse, its inhabitants desperate to survive the impending Winter's Sorrow. United with a group of allies handpicked by the Oracle, Molam realizes he is the Oracle's last piece in a decades-long plan to thwart the Empire's relentless ambition to reach Heaven.

Entering the fray comes with lurking enemies, mistrust among allies, and lethal scrutiny from all sides. Continually at risk of having his lack of aura exposed, Molam relies on his wits to navigate powerful individuals with misdirection and a facade of powers. To obtain the group's help and trust, he must balance his new responsibilities against his deeper, more personal goals.

There is no synopsis for Book 2 going forward to avoid spoilers.
