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).

A Saga detailing the Plight and Journey of the Cursed Children. Ages have passed since the Demons of the Lower Realms were exiled from the... more>> Midworld. Within those hundreds of thousands of years, calamity upon calamity met the peoples of the world. Now they grow desolate. The powers that existed in those bygone ages now wane. The world seems to be moving to a lull. And distrust and madness consumes those in positions of power. During the twilight of the current age, a boy was born to a cursed couple. They offended a sage who had come to visit, and paid for their insolence. Their child was to be exiled. Yet the sage felt remorse, and offered to train and guide their yet unborn son. And so it happened that Tūmbṃār, the boy of the Hematite Mountains, became a disciple to one of the greatest sages. The twelve-year old would venture forth from his home, embarking on a journey that would change not only the fate of his world, but the ones of his dearest companions. Not least the mysterious maiden he found under a tree. Their lives would be intertwined, involving the Gods above and the Demons below. Together they would usher in the great saga of that age! <<less

This is the story of a man who made a lot of bad choices.... more>>

An American army engineer finds himself at rock bottom in Japan, but finally figures out a way to put his life back together. While waiting in an airport in Japan, he was hoping to reconnect with his ex-wife, repair his relationship with his daughter, and get his family back.

The plane never makes it to Japan.

Having reached the end of his rope, Ryan just can't take it anymore, and decides to end it all by stepping out into traffic. The only problem is that he stepped out in front of Truck-Kun on the prowl.

As Ryan awakens, he finds himself trapped in the midst of a Romantic Isekai Otome Game, a world he knows nothing about. To add to his troubles, he finds himself occupying the body of the school's social outcast, destined to be married to the villainess, who is on the verge of ruining her engagement with the crown prince and facing exile from the kingdom.

On top of that, Ryan soon discovers that he is not the only one who has been transported to this world. Someone else very familiar with the setting is trying to manipulate the world to their own benefit and in the process may change the genre from what should be a simple rom-com into a demonic apocalypse.

To prevent this, the Gods have given Ryan an offer he can't refuse.

Stop the end of the world and they'll help him find his family. <<less

When the Lord Protector Lutan pursues an old grudge and an entire village winds up dead as a consequence, it looks like a return to open warfare is inevitable unless he can stop the necromancer he’s hunting from reaching the safety of his own people, however, this is not his story.

But, now as the sole survivor of his village, and captive of that same necromancer, things are not only different but, more disconcerting than the glaringly obvious, something doesn’t seem right; why is the necromancer so determined to protect him? And just what principles is Alec prepared to forsake to survive . . .

- Slice of Life is here for a reason. Things change pace at varying speed, but I'm in this for the long haul. Please Enjoy!

Some Important Notes: (Wall of Text which you might find relevant)
============================================================
- This series is a Naruto Fanfic, so it already targets a somewhat niche audience. It'll likely be more fun to have some familiarity with the Naruto world. That said, this is just my indulgence, so I'd be very pleased if you got some enjoyment out of it regardless.
- This is Not Isekai, it's a sort of AU (because it's an earlier time period) with a few added OCs (because it's free real estate)
- Doubtless some elements will be awkward/cringe when expressed in English. I feel your pain.
========Other Notes:
- I do not own Naruto. This is purely a derivative work.
- Think of this as a drafted version. I proofread a lot to keep up the quality, but I always seem to miss something. If you find grammatical or formatting errors, please let me know (Comment?) and I'll fix it.
- As for Tagging: It's currently accurate, but I'll add more if they get relevant. I haven't finished writing, after all.
- As for Content Warnings: I honestly don't know what all will be there yet, but I have a lot of ideas so I included it all to be safe. Fair Warning. Intended audience is ~17/18+ so I'm just following the guidelines.
- No official release schedule since I work full-time and you never know. This may change.
- Multi-genre, a little bit of all the things I like. More may come.
*******
- I do not own the Cover art, I only edited overlays for it.

Fed up with a world where science has made every fantasy a reality and people just don’t care about stories anymore, a young video game developer named Kai uses ancient black magic to transport himself into one of his games, titled: Choices.... more>>

Disturbed by his powerlessness on Earth, Kai makes sure to give himself the ability to change this new world as he sees fit, literally.

If you were ridiculously powerful, would you throw away all your morals and do whatever you wanted? Would you find happiness? Would you find love?
Or would you end up realizing that…

Absolute power is pretty depressing.

Vol. 1
Noel Miller is a fourteen-year-old girl from small-town America. After the sudden death of her parents, she and her young brother are forced to move across the world to live with their aunt in Tokyo, Japan. Having to learn to live in a foreign land is hard enough, but her life gets more complicated than ever when she is accidentally given magical powers by Azrath; a strange creature who has come to Earth to battle with a vicious race of immortals using the broken pieces of his god's sword said to contain the last of his power.... more>>

Unfortunately, that power has bonded to Noel. And now, she is the only one who can use it! No stranger to the supernatural due to a familial curse, Noel takes her newfound power in stride. But just how long will that confidence last? Especially with the immortal Ahngreel leader's impending arrival on Earth. Just what does fate have in store for Noel?
Vol. 2
With supernatural abilities and a silly new name, Noel has become a magical girl! Not that she knows what that is or what she can do. But with the arrival of Darris the Indomitable, leader of the Ahngreel, she'll have to find out sooner than later as she and Azrath journey to rescue a piece of the sword that has fallen into his clutches.

It's a race across Tokyo as they hope against hope that the piece will not gift him with even more power. But unbeknownst to them, Darris is ready and waiting for their arrival with an insatiable hunger for battle.
Vol. 3
After suffering a terrible loss, Noel is in the clutches of despair. But fate will not let her go that easily. Nor will Darris. For whatever reason, he has become fascinated with her. Now she is subject to his whims, a prisoner of his agenda, which is to push Noel to her absolute limits. But how he plans to do that, Noel has no idea.

So, she faces a daunting challenge: get out of there alive. The odds seem against her, but with Urzuran's power, nothing is impossible. She must use her wits to figure out a way to make it home safe.
Vol. 4
As Noel prepares for the dark road ahead, Darris is gathering the Ahngreel. Rumors abound as to why. And those curious, like the Ahngeel Kaas, are determined to find the truth. For the past several millennia, he has been gathering forces of his own to oppose the human who has usurped the Hidaar throne. It's going to take guts, determination, and the help of his loyal soldiers to depose Darris.

Will he succeed? Or are there other, larger threats out there with agendas of their own?
vol. 5
Training is not going as well as Noel hoped. The memories of her battles on that night still linger in her mind. Nothing makes sense to her anymore. As a result, she finds herself torn between the ideologies of Darris and Azrath. She can only take solace in the idea that she can get stronger. But what does that exactly mean? She doesn't have long to think about it as Darris and Kaas are on the move to enact their own agendas. <<less

General Seeker Carlean, commander and leader of the mission, risked and gave his life to destroy the immediate stellar threat. The battle was won though Earth lay in ruins. Perhaps mankind will live to see a few years of peace before the alien threat returns to wipe out their existence.

At the immediate aftermath of the stellar battle, the fallen Seeker Carlean awakens and finds himself at aged 17, living the peaceful life he lived 16 years before he died.

So begins a new game in the battle for humanity's survival.

At the end of a long wealthy life, the reclusive man David found himself as a late teenager again, in a goddess' realm no less. Further, she told him she was "done" with her world, and oh he could have it, and do with it as he pleased. This confused him; how could a goddess get to a point of abandoning a world? or if she did, then _how was he supposed to do better_?... more>>

But. She didn't realize how damaged this David might be. Or, how screwed up she was in the first place (horny lonely and playing with herself and the mortals), to end up saying how done she was with it. She only knew by then, she could no longer handle being this world's goddess. Basically, she'd got to a point of "negative DP income" ― her world cost her more Deity Points in maintenance than was coming (pardon the pun, or not) from her worshippers ... and how she played with them. She cannot figure out how to handle these mortals anymore, so she's ... done. "Screw it," she said. "And here you go, _you take it_."

Finding himself alone in now this deific domain after her departure, trying to figure things out ― he has decided: he will clean up the icky mess she left all over the place, and the remaining task of finding any follower at all. And then, try raising the world's DP income, the right way- <<less

The world of Verre is a strange and wonderful place filled with strange, bewitching landscapes, hidden planes and daunting dangers. In the midst of this wonder and beauty is a harmonic anarchy. Earth and heaven lie opposed and mankind wars with itself as well as the fearsome beasts they live alongside. It is the right setting for myths and legends. Empires and kingdoms, heroes and villains, all rise and fall. Men, women and daemons compete on this stage seeking godhood, making names for themselves and establishing legacies of their own.... more>>

Born into one of these legacies is Valerian Steelborn of the House of Cragsveil. Blessed with keen acumen and remarkable abilities he steps into a world he expects a lot out of and it, him. How far would he go and what legacy would he leave behind?

A frontier village was unnecessarily put to the sword. A father stoked the fires of war to punish an errant daughter, and perhaps set her straight, but as often happens when fire is applied in a measure too much: it can get rather out of hand.

Rebirth was not something that he had thought possible. Perhaps, he had had some vague hopes of reincarnation cycles as the more desirable option to afterlife. But being reborn in what he believed to be a fictional universe had only seemed as the premise of stories.

Synopsis Updated: 5/9/2020 <<less

Reincarnated, Crete finds himself not in some overpowered human body with the basic kill the demon lord cliche. No, he is reincarnated as a weak, powerless, and quite frankly worthless existence. Maybe his was a mistake, as he wasn't even reincarnated as a human but instead a humble and meek existence, A termite. Follow Crete as he adventures, without the memories of his previous life intact, in this New World, Honera. He trudges on endlessly with his indomitable willpower and journeys as a meek termite who is fraught with trials and tribulations; as he seeks for the power to just live in peace and without the prejudice everyone seems to have against his kind.
