Myths have existed for as long as humanity has, to describe that which we could not understand, but almost all of these are told from the human (or some other outsider's) point of view. What if we looked at what the gods were doing, and only caught glimpses of what was happening below, in the world?... more>>

Here we have the tale of the gods, not of Earth, but of a new world, and how they find their own purpose, in the Game of the World.

This story is rather lighthearted, mostly me figuring out how to write characters, so there will be little worldbuilding, because, well... The gods will be doing that. ~æ

A competition between the sun god Lumos and the moon goddess Luna escalates. A competition is held to determine which side will triumph. To do this, each side is allowed to revive four souls in the world and shape them according to their own wishes within certain rules. Who will win in the end and decide the dispute? How do the souls who act as champions of the respective deity fare in a medieval fantasy world full of magic and monsters?... more>>

In the Holy Empire of Humanity, a summoning ritual begins that summons people from other worlds as the chosen ones of the Goddess.... more>>

These heroes are summoned due to the threat posed by the Devils. Each of these heroes receives the blessings of the Goddess and possesses unique abilities to fight and repel the Devils.

But among these summoned heroes, a little girl arrived with them. The girl does not have the qualities to be one of the heroes nor does she have the power to be one.

She only tries to establish a peaceful life within the castle for her own convenience.

But in this world full of mysteries, she will be swept away to witness the wonders and all the suffering and pain this world could offer.

Note: I don't own anything. It's a rewrite of a novel on hiatus at Royal Road, Blooming Thorn In Another World. It's kind of my attempt to make it look like a Japanese web novel, one of those translated into English or Spanish.

Furthermore, Asagao will not be the only protagonist. There is also a crossover with elements from other stories.

I'm going to release the rest of the chapters when I can. I don't promise anything, since I rewrite when I feel like it.

So I can have weeks where I don't upload anything, because I do this for fun, nothing more.

I appreciate you taking the time to read the story. And we'll see you when I release the next chapter.

You'll see if I finish all this... <<less

I don't know which studio or person came up with this word first but I do know that it was a brilliant idea.

It was an excellent idea to spice up the stagnant shows with nothing else to show. Showing the struggles of a normal person who gained supernatural powers through different means and methods, showing abilities that every human desired but couldn't.

A bait, attracting humans who so desperately wanted it.

I was also the same, A normal person who after getting his hands on these abilities screwed up, big time.

Sorry for the awkward summary, it was my first time writing it myself.

If you have any complaints please tell me on the comments. I will do my best to accommodate you.

And please note that though this is a fanfic, I will not be respectful to the source material. I am only writing a fanfic cause I am not confident in creating an endearing and captivating world.

Oh... and if you see similarities between lotm and my power system. Please know I am massive lotm fan. <<less

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.

Rong Bai (smiling), “What did you say you were going to do when you came to the Demon Realm?”

Song Ci, “It, it’s all a misunderstanding……” <<less

Maya wished she could get away from the overly regimented existence of her family. Therefore, she entered into an agreement with Hilda, a demon.

[Hilda: I am not the demon. My title is simply "senior executive," and my department is "lust" at Other World, Inc. "Corporate slave" is a more appropriate term.]

The wishes of Maya were granted. In order to accomplish her goals, she ran away from her family and embarked on many perilous missions for the gods or guardians of other worlds.

She was finally able to reclaim command of her life after completing 1,000 missions. At this moment, all she desired was a happy family. Will she be able to find happiness in her world, or will she be compelled to embark on another mission?

The story contains the element of world hopping. The MC will control other people's (Men/Women/Futa) bodies and complete missions fueled by lust and blood.

In the wake of a cosmic upheaval, the entirety of Earth's population finds themselves transported to a mysterious and untamed realm—a brand new plane ripe for exploration and conquest. Among them is Liam, an ordinary individual thrust into an extraordinary situation. In this new world, every inhabitant has been granted the opportunity to rise as a lord, commanding their own unique armies and territories.... more>>

However, fate is not kind to Liam. While others receive powerful troops and resources, he is bestowed only the lowest tier of soldiers, a blue slime, seemingly chosen randomly. Despite this disadvantage, Liam discovers a hidden advantage—a mysterious ability to access a "cheat" once a week, which allows him to purchase one item for free in the mall once a week.

With this newfound advantage, Liam sets out to defy the odds and carve out his own path to dominance in this cutthroat landscape. But as he rises through the ranks, he attracts the attention of powerful rivals and dark forces lurking in the shadows. Alongside his ragtag army, Liam must navigate treacherous landscapes, confront mythical beasts, and outmaneuver cunning adversaries in order to survive.

"Getting reincarnated into another world as an unknown race isn't what someone would usually think would happen after surviving a very close call with death... and then dying anyway right after. While he had faint expectations of this possibility, they were fleeting fantasies and delusions from when he was young, never had he thought too much in depth about it."

"Now, however, he'd wished he could have had more time to explore those fantasies."

"Stranded in an entirely different world as a strange species and different body, armed with nothing but a head, two hands, feet— and a tail, she(?)... now needs to survive, adapt, and overcome, with almost 0 survival skills or knowledge of where, what, when, and how about everything. Questioning why are the monsters so damn big? Debating if this glowing mushroom is edible? Is this tree following me around? What is me and who is that? And narrating myself to keep my waning sanity alive..."

Author's Note: [edited as of 03.06.23]
Regarding the art of writing, I'm a novice, so keep your expectations low and your hopes high because this will be a bumpy ride... and sometimes there won't even be one to ride due to technical difficulties.
I try to write during my free-time, therefore I'll be focusing more on quality than upload consistency.

Rachel is a 19-year-old Muay Thai-loving college girl going about her troubled life, but all of that is about to be compounded when she grows two big ears and a tail from her backside.  After moving into her dorm room at Miami University, the whole world is flipped on its head when the heavens crack like stained glass, and 1/150th of the world's population is transformed into creatures and granted an unusual Leveling System.  A large subsection of the world population is turned into beasts, fae, or aberrant people, while others are granted powers from historical and mythological figures, such as King Arthur, Saint Charlemagne, or the dreaded Leviathan.  Wait, now there are alien toads... more>> popping out of Crystal Gateways?

Having to put petty problems to the side, Rachel has to figure out what is happening as the whole world tries to do the same, but she has a few secret weapons, two of which are on the top of her head; she uses her newly acquired hearing to scope out the changes people are experiencing and gathers the wealth of information at her college campus to plot a way forward as martial law is instituted.  If aliens and spontaneously becoming a moon bunny hare wasn't enough, popular gods seem to have something to do with the new System in this urban fantasy adventure.  Blessed by the mysterious goddess Ceridwen, our MC will have to combat the divine manipulations with her most potent weapon: misfortune.  Being an unlucky hare, rather than a lucky bun, what will Rachel's lousy fortune bring both her and her enemies because even the gods fear our Mythickin Lunar Bun Hare!

Fairies are a myth.
Tiny creatures that live in the forest, flitting around on butterfly wings, doing whatever they please for their own enjoyment.
Each of them readily displaying their character and magic through their individual colors.
And if you are not careful, they make take you as their entertainment.
So beware, or the fairies might catch ya.... more>>

Yeah, sure.
They are merely stories told to frighten children.
Something parents say to ensure roaming kids come home before dark.
There has never been proof of their existence.

No thinking adult would ever believe the tales.
In every legend, these doll sized creatures wield far more magic than any mage.
That is simply not possible!
Surely, they cannot be real!

But my belief is not necessary.
Not when the impossible wishes to turn my life into a fairytale.

Alexander King loves the idea of an isekai just as much as the next person. Reading about someone who was plucked out of our world and thrown into a world full of magic and danger and watching them struggle to make sense of the chaos around them as they rise to power.... more>>

But those things are just supposed to stay as stories, they weren't meant to happen to him. Reality was never as forgiving as fiction and he had no doubt that if he ended up in one of these worlds he'd more than likely die some sad pathetic death, nor did he particularly have a desire to leave his family and friends. So naturally, with his luck, he wakes up God-knows-where with a system status in front of his eyes only to almost instantly die too the hostile environment around him.

Alex is definitely going to find his way back... If he can avoid being killed by the godlike beings that happen to just be everywhere on this world first.

I guess I should throw this out there and it's probably important that I should do so to clearly state my intentions with this story. This is not going to be a happy-go-lucky story all the way through. It will start relatively upbeat, but there are going to be dark parts. There's going to be things that are hard to stomach, things that will make you uncomfortable. If that's not something you like, that's fine. Not every story is for everyone, maybe this one won't be for you.

To allay some questions this story is not designed to be a torture porn sort of fic. But that doesn't mean I will shy away from talking about characters being tortured or abused. I also won't skip through those portions of the story in an attempt to get them done more quickly. These things need to run their course in order for the importance of the circumstances to fully be imparted into the story. If you as a reader need to skip over these moments, that's perfectly fine. I do that myself in certain fics/shows when I start feeling uncomfortable. That's just a natural reaction. Anyway, I've gotten a couple of people who haven't been happy with it, and that's fine. I don't begrudge those people for disliking these parts of the story, I'm just putting this out there so that future readers come in knowing what to expect instead of being unfortunately blind-sided by my nearsightedness on the situation. I definitely should've had a warning up way earlier for people about this.
