I am a Queen. ... more>>

Well, I was a Queen before the aristocracy betrayed me and I was abandoned to die.

As my life faded, I reached across the worlds, searching for a soul that would resonate with my own. And I found one—a tiny, fragile ember. It called out to me, beating to the thrum of my soul.

And when it flickered weakly, on the verge of being snuffed out, I seized it with everything I had.

My enemies think they have won. That I am gone for good.

But I will return. And when I do, fire will rain upon those who betrayed me.

To do that, I must first break this new world. I know nothing of it, but one thing is certain—

It isn't ready for me.

The spring breeze cuts through the affairs of the world— But tell me, would the peach blossoms grow old with me?

In the 547th year of the Yong'an Calendar, a blinding snowstorm fell upon Kuhai County, a remote border town in the southern region of Qi.

On that night, Wen Chaosheng took shelter in a ruined temple outside the county. There, he found a gravely wounded, crippled woman on the brink of death. At first, he thought she was just another unfortunate refugee. But little did he know, this woman carried a secret that could shake the very heavens…

Years later, before the towering gates of the Skyward Hall, a young man stood beneath the moon, sword in hand. Behind him lay countless corpses, blood flowing like a river.

"My name is Wen Chaosheng. This time, I draw my sword… to demand justice from the Heavens!"

An alien abduction romance. Updates every weekday.
Grant has a tolerance for boredom. Late shift in a middle-of-nowhere facility? Sign him up. If the money's good, he'll happily take the peace and quiet of a long night watching an empty cell.
And then he meets Subject B-31. Blue, beautiful, and completely inhuman. Her captors call her Batty, thanks to her big ears and the way she hangs upside down by her tail.

Gods are, generally speaking, not fans of directly putting their fingers on the scale. This is for a variety of reasons, ranging from caution to amusement, but is generally because after a few hundred millennia and enough prayers to fill a hollow Earth, you're bound to learn the art of delegation. Luckily, among the unwashed masses, there exist the exceptional, the gifted, those with the potential to become Heroes.... more>>

Useful pawns.

Thus, the Gods adopted a more laissez-faire policy.

Quasi Eludo has been a Hero. He did the whole "save the world” rigmarole, came home, and mulled over his magical journey. It was amazing! A whole lifetime as the destined savior, with magic and monsters, love and adventure, lifelong friendships and heartfelt goodbyes. There was so much, and yet, gone so soon.

It wasn’t enough. It was never enough. He wanted to do it again. And where wants coincide, there's a market, so he sold his services to the lazy, wanton Gods.

Quasi Eludo, Hero for Hire. [No world too big, no quest too small]

Now, after traveling to twenty nine different worlds, Quasi Eludo finds himself against a far different battle. One that involves the worst, most evil organizations in subjective human history. An organization known as the Internal Revenue Service. An organization that has hounded our Hero ever since his first divine payment.

Regardless, Quasi Eludo is ready for this. A court date is set, documents are ready, his lawyers have been to the gym, and their suits are appropriately sized.

And with no summoning expected or schedules on that day, nothing should absolutely go wrong.

And even if something does go wrong, how bad can it truly get? <<less

Kai of the Sorcerer's Tower is one of the last mages left, barely surviving in a world ruled by creatures of the dark — where the era of mages ended, and most of the lands got contaminated with dead mana. ... more>>

To save his world and fulfil his master's last wish, he put himself through a forbidden ritual, risking his soul being ripped into pieces to make his way into the past. In an era with abundant mana — an era yet to enter the Golden Era of Magic.

Things go wrong, of course, as they always do, and he finds himself thousands of years before the world fell to mana contamination — in the body of a young lord, Arzan. All is not well, though, as the young lord was murdered by someone and he had a beast wave to protect his territory from before moving to larger threats as well trying to get back his former strength in a world where magic techniques and technology is primitive.

He might be able to change that.

Nye drowns trying to save their little brother, only to wake up in a desert—and in the middle of a battlefield.... more>>

The battle raging around them is only the first of their worries: they've been reincarnated as a blood-lusting dhampyr, their brother is nowhere to be seen, and a sentient cursed shield has fastened itself to their arm. Not to mention, they've been assigned the role of Knight, which compels them to protect a helpless (and hopeless) prince.

Desperate to find their brother, Nye reluctantly agrees to help the prince track down his kidnapped sister in exchange for their freedom. The magical oasis at the center of the desert is the crux of growing political tensions, but it might also be the answer to breaking Nye's tie to the prince and their increasingly-murderous shield. However, the spring's purifying life magic is also the source of overgrown beasts that stalk the sand dunes: reaching their destination will be fraught with perils from hostile nations and nature alike.

What you can expect from this story:
- A nonbinary main character
- Dhampyrs (they're vampires that are born, not turned. Yes, there will be blood and biting)
- A giant demonic shield that just wants some blood, that's all, it's not asking for much
- A slow burn relationship

Updates: 5 chs per week for the first 3 weeks

Nobles. Hunters. Warlocks. Sorcerers. Monsters. Beasts. And Loch, an orphan with a tainted arm, is about to get a perilous crash course on how these mighty creatures weave their webs of power in a world where the supernatural goes hand in hand with science. ... more>>

The world of Aegis is filled with all manner of powerful beings, but these powerful beings didn't start strong; they grew, evolved, and ascended. By twisting the power of the Tainted Aether, the very lifeblood that runs through all things in the world of Aegis, humans have taken a step to rise above their original status as prey and have joined the ranks of the predators.

After millennia of fortifying and no small number of sacrifices, Humans have cut a slice of the hazardous lands for themselves, with their ringed cities built on blessed soil and defended by magic and machines, each ruled over by a being so powerful they are title with the name of royalty, Monarch. Some Humans have begun to be born and die without seeing a shadow of the many monstrous existences that used to have a human or two for breakfast. It is in one of these ringed cities where an Orphan born with a common deformity due to Tainted blood is about to learn what it takes to rise above the masses and ascend to the almost mythical level of Monarch.

A GRIMDARK story filled with classic sword and magic elements but also a very heavy sprinkling of guts, guns, and glory. Humans can only rise past their limits by hunting the many beasts and monsters that roam the lands of Aegis. <<less
