In the bustling metropolis of Tokyo, college student Suzuki Kenji is just trying to navigate the trials of adulthood—balancing exams, a job and newfound independence. However, his world is turned upside down when he encounters a group of cloaked figures, calling themselves Chasers— superpowered champions of humanity powered by nanotech—who wage war against unidentified monsters that prowl the shadows.... more>>

As Kenji finds himself entangled in this brutal struggle, he discovers that he possesses extraordinary abilities that could tilt the delicate balance of power between the competing Chaser factions. But with these gifts comes danger, as rival Chasers grow wary of his potential. Kenji quickly learns that he is viewed as more of a threat than the monsters themselves, and will attract relentless attempts on his life from those sworn to protect humanity.

Kenji's journey takes him down a path of not only mastering his uncharted powers but also a quest to unravel the secret of his extraordinary lineage. In a world where the lines between hero and monster blur and every step could be his last, he must determine whether he'll be just a pawn in this age-old battle, or if he has what it takes to flip the board.

“Program Zero” weaves a tale of courage, acceptance, and the quest for identity amid chaos. It begs the question: "Are monsters born, or made?"

Elias Vayne was once a warrior who fought against monsters, wielding sword and steel to defend humanity. But that was a lifetime ago. Torn from the battlefield and reforged by the will of the Ice Dragon Empress, he awakens in a new body and a new life—as Elyssia, the Frostborn Princess, heir to a kingdom of dragons and blood-soaked power.... more>>

Now, neither the dragons who see her as an imposter nor the humans who fear her power will accept her. Forced to hide her identity behind the guise of an elf, Elyssia walks a dangerous path between worlds. All the while, the Draconic Monarchy crumbles under civil war, ancient factions vie for control, and her mother’s schemes tighten like a noose around her neck.

Haunted by memories of friends long dead and betrayed by those she once called family, Elyssia must decide whether to fight for a world that no longer has a place for her—or to embrace the monster she was forced to become.

In a world ruled by dragons, even the coldest hearts can burn.

Viltrum was a harsh planet, the beautuful blue skies and the never ending oceans could trie and fool you, but blood and death filled the planet's atmosphere.... more>>

Being born a viltrumite gifted you imensurable strength and a lifespan of thousands of years. All this for the price of being a murderer, a conqueror, fighting every day to be useful to the Empire.

Kovac had enough, he had so many blood on his hands, he killed his own people to prove his strength, he slaughtered countless to enlarge the Empire, and that meaningless violence never seemed to end. The elite soldier, pride of his people, couldn't take it anymore, so he decided to flee... and the Scorge Virus couldn't have gave him a better opportunity.

Little did he know, he would end up in a place far distant from his birth planet, his birth universe even, a place with magic and legendary warriors.

Aden Welex never asked for fame, and if he had a say in it, he’d give it back with a side of sarcasm. Known far and wide as Amelia’s son, he’s constantly in the shadow of his mother’s legacy—a reputation he never earned but can’t seem to shake. His attempts to stay under the radar are about as successful as sneaking past a pack of werewolf puppies; people notice him whether he wants them to or not.

Sixteen, sharp-witted, and perpetually annoyed, Aden navigates life with a mix of dry humor and quiet frustration. School is a never-ending parade of awkward encounters, unwanted attention, and an allergy to technology that makes everything from datapads to radios explode in his presence. Not that he needs tech—his memory is sharp, his wit is sharper, and his ability to dodge trouble? Well… work in progress.

Despite his reluctance to be the center of attention, Aden has a strong sense of responsibility. His twin sister, Adora, is his anchor in the chaos, matching his sarcasm with sharp comebacks and ensuring he doesn’t retreat too far into his own head. His trusted mount, a striking purple unicorn named Sammy, is more than just a ride—he’s a friend, a troublemaker, and a constant reminder that Aden’s life is anything but ordinary.

But no matter how much he wants a quiet life, trouble has a way of finding Aden. And when it does, he’ll be ready—with a smirk, a plan (probably a bad one), and the stubborn determination to prove he’s more than just a name.

Because if life insists on making him a spectacle, he’s going to make damn sure he steals the show. <<less

You know what the problem with being the size of a pro wrestler is?

Priam, an ordinary college student from Tokyo, is thrust into a world of magic and monsters when he is summoned as a familiar by **Princess Evelyne von Rozenheim**, a haughty and powerful noblewoman. Bound by a magical rune, Priam is forced to serve Evelyne at the prestigious **Academy of Arcane Nobility**, where mages and nobles train to master the arcane arts.

But Priam is no ordinary familiar. Unlike the beasts and spirits typically summoned, he is a human—a rarity in this world. Worse yet, he possesses no innate magical ability, making him an object of ridicule among the academy’s elite. However, the binding rune on his hand begins to awaken something within him: a latent power tied to the mysterious **Void**, a force beyond the understanding of even the greatest mages.

As Priam struggles to adapt to his new life, he finds himself surrounded by a diverse cast of characters, each with their own secrets and ambitions:
- **Evelyne von Rozenheim**, his fiery and arrogant master, whose icy exterior hides a vulnerability she dares not show.
- **Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt-Zerbst**, a flirtatious and confident fire mage who takes an immediate interest in Priam.
- **Astrid von Eisenberg**, a brilliant and enigmatic scholar who sees Priam as a fascinating anomaly.
- **Lady Seraphina de Montclair**, a mysterious noblewoman with ties to the Void and a hidden agenda.
- **Luna von Nacht**, a shy and kind-hearted beastkin girl who becomes one of Priam’s closest allies.

As Priam begins to unlock his latent abilities, he discovers that his summoning was no accident. The Void has chosen him for a purpose, one that could change the fate of the world. But with power comes danger, and Priam soon finds himself at the center of a brewing conflict between the academy, the nobility, and ancient forces that seek to control the Void.

With the help of his growing harem of allies, Priam must navigate the treacherous waters of magic, politics, and romance. But as his power grows, so too does the target on his back. Can he master the Void and forge his own destiny, or will he be consumed by the very forces that summoned him?

**A World Unknown** is a tale of magic, adventure, and self-discovery, where a young man from Earth must rise above his humble beginnings to become a hero in a world he never asked to be part of.

Malroth, the God of War, wreaks havoc on the continent of Avon and causes many innocent people to die, Malroth has no remorse and sees people as puny ants or toys to be played with and broken. The other gods agree that Malroth has gone too far and must be stopped and punished. Once the other gods agree they band together and seal the gods power causing him to be sent down to start a life on the continent he once wreaked havoc on as a weak and insignificant slave.

Will he live honorably and earn his place among the Gods once more? Will he find happiness in a life where he is loved rather than feared? Or will he resign to his fate and live out a pitiful life of a weak insignificant boy below those he once labeled puny and insignificant.

In a universe of warring gods, Ciel—brilliant, cunning, and armed with modified divine inventions—wields the unexpected Union Lord Authority, a marriage ticket to divine power. Thrust into the War of Lords, he must save a world he barely knows by expanding a celestial court he never wanted.... more>>

Meanwhile, his Celestial Brides took one look at their predicament and decided sharing makes the burning house cooler... much to the "lucky" man's protest.

"The Court of Union" reinvents the harem genre, blending high-stakes fantasy with intricate warfare and politics. A story where our reluctant protagonist would rather face mortal peril than manage a battle harem, much to his wives' and the gods' chagrin. Will Ciel's tactics and tech prevail, or must he master the art of celestial court politics?

Nothing good comes knocking in the early hours of the morning. Mara Swift knows this, so why she bothered to answer the door only the Depths could tell. But she did, and now her husband is dead, her home is a pile of ash, her life is in danger, and the only way to safety is a long, treacherous route that she couldn’t even point to on a map. ... more>>

Her guide and protector on this treacherous route is her husband’s friend and fellow rebel, Eli. All Mara knows of Eli is that her husband trusted him–hardly a ringing endorsement considering Davy’s abrupt and violent departure from the mortal plane. But the wife of a dead, uncovered undercover rebel can’t be picky about allies.

Mara is grieving, Eli is keeping secrets, and neither makes for particularly good company. But shared suffering begets mutual understanding, mutual understanding begets reluctant friendship, and reluctant friendship?

Well...the story is tagged as fantasy/romance. The writing is kind of on the wall. <<less

Mia Vael, a young mage hunter in training, has spent her life learning the arts of tracking rogue mages. Driven by a personal vendetta against the arcane, she pursues a shadowy, enigmatic mage, who has fled beyond the known world.... more>>

During their final confrontation aboard a storm-ravaged ship, the Mage unleashed a spell that sends them both crashing onto the shores of an uncharted continent. Waking amid the wreckage, Elyse finds herself in the Imperium, a nation where magic is not feared or forbidden but celebrated and ingrained in every aspect of life. The people, their culture, and even the environment pulse with mana, rendering her traditional skills insufficient and obsolete.

Struggling to survive, she reluctantly learns how to wield magic herself—a notion Mia abhors but realises is necessary, makes friends with promising mages from across the empire. She has to grow in power to survive and finally track down the mage she was sworn to kill.

When Kiera, a gaming novice, logs into Eidolon Nexus for the first time, she expects a fun escape—not to become the center of a world-shattering anomaly. ... more>>

Choosing the quirky Succubus class purely for aesthetics, Kiera stumbles through tutorials and low-level quests, only to accidentally activate a mysterious code.

The code rewrites her character data, transforming her into a Succubus Demon Lord, an overpowered yet dangerously unstable class whose devastating abilities come at a dire cost.

Now hunted by rogue guilds, shadowy developers, and possibly the server itself, Kiera must navigate the glitching chaos of Eidolon Nexus.

But survival comes at a cost, and Kiera must learn to balance her overwhelming newfound power—because it’s game over if she fails.

But if she succeeds… she might just rewrite the rules entirely.

In a world where vampires reign with bloodlust and immortality, there exists one anomaly: Kyon Bashega. Born of two worlds, Kyon is neither fully human nor fully vampire. He possesses the unparalleled strength of the undead, the speed, the healing, the darkness of their kind—but with one deadly difference: he can use Flux.... more>>

Flux is a mysterious power that flows through humans, a force that bends time, spirit, and body. Few can harness it, and even fewer can wield it without losing themselves to madness. But Kyon’s ability to control Flux marks him as a threat to both vampires and humans alike. His bloodline, a twisted blend of human fragility and vampiric strength, gives him the power to kill even the mightiest of vampires, no weapon required. His enemies whisper in fear: A half-vampire who can use Flux? A freak of nature.

In a world defined by desire, Kyon is the perfect balance—untouched by the weaknesses of either side. Immune to the Moon Tree’s deadly wood, the argent steel that kills vampires, and even the very Flux that burns through human veins, Kyon is both a savior and a weapon. But his power is not without cost. Flux is a double-edged sword, and even the greatest of users fall victim to its ravages. As Kyon's power grows, so does his struggle to keep his sanity intact. Can he control the very force that threatens to unravel him?

Kyon is the bridge between two worlds, but he may be the one to tear them apart. He is a force of nature—a war waiting to happen. And no one, not even Kyon, knows if he can survive it. <<less

Ray had long given up on achieving anything worthwhile in life, and his greatest ambition was to spend 24/7 reading books until the day he finally died. He had no one, and he wished for no one. Dealing with people was too exhausting and nerve-wrecking for him. He wasn’t lonely, happy or sad, he just was, empty. But even his only wish for death was not meant to be as he found himself in an endless cycle of life and death, with an egotistical backseat driver in his head, thrown into messed up worlds one after another.... more>>

So what to really expect? A pathetic protagonist who wants to change and become awesome, but is still pathetic and struggles with himself, tries to ignore problems, goes on long-winded outburst and internal monologues that makes you want to beat him up, and yell at him to just get his... stuff together. Just a broken man who's being throw around, and hoping to get somewhere. Sounds super fun and interesting right? Sometimes it's even funny, but I have a weird sense of humor I admit.

Author Notes:

This is just a side project to scratch that itch to produce smut while I focus on my other stories.
Creative sugggestions for scenes/ideas are always welcome.

=====================Content Warning================================

Despite the premise, the story deals with a lot of grey zone and morally questionable actions.
Individual chapters do not come with separate warnings. This is a conscious decision I had to make considering several factors. Chief among them being the narratorial structure and ambiguous nature of events.
My humble request to readers: If you are not at a mentally healthy place, or have unresolved parental issues, please give this story a pause and come back at another time. <<less
