No one ever knows the whole story... more>>

Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself.

In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever—or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation.

The World's Number 1 Most Wanted Thief, the Black Cobra, an Egyptian youth specialized in ancient artifacts, was killed in an explosion he set up after being chased into a dead end in New York. Around his middle finger which he pointed at the face of every chaser from every world superpower, he carried the most prized item in the world, the Ring of Horus.
When he kicked off life with a Bang! He returned with a lot of barf and vomit as poison was being cleansed of his body and a series of messages kept popping up. Long story short, he reincarnated into the body of Leon, an antagonist from a game he used... more>> to play and supposedly one who should already be dead. However, the Hunt for his Life never ended and he became the most wanted after reincarnation overnight. And there is System and Magic and Harem and Overpowered Oversmart Overcharismatic Hero who believes in gender equality and human's right to stay silent when he stabs them… good stuff, turly!

(Author Note: The story tries to avoid the cliches and focuses on crime and politics. Not sure about titles with the same quality as this one but I take elements from the usual isekai and mash them with the Korean style characters and attention to details while avoiding the Chinese repetitive plots and the Japanese beta male leads. This is an Egyptian MC whom you have never seen any like before. He kisses babies and slaps bitches… or kisses bitches and slaps babies… depending on which day of the week it is. He's a mean guy and he knows kung fu. One time an author tried to write him in a novel, the novel almost absorbed the author and he went into a torturous isekai. What more can I say? Read it already!)

The novel is being published under the same title on Royal Road, Wattpad, Moonquill and Webnovel. <<less

Rachel didn't really expect that whole new gig at life after dying due to a cancer.... more>>

Now, on paper, things should be peachy. Not.

She got screwed a second time by genetics, the universe will try its hardest to kill her in a few years because Tony Stark exist, and she now inhabits the body of young Spiderman's bully.

But, sometimes, when you wish upon a star to be less powerless about your shitty situation, it can also fall near you and give you a helping, alien, hand.

Traditionnal disclaimers : I do not own Marvel and all other works of fiction I may use as references in the process of writing this story. I also do not own the miniature, whose original you can find at https://www.pinterest.fr/pin/472033604674669075/

I do own my original characters, though, be nice and don't steal them, or give me at least credits if you need to :)

Additional disclaimers (5th of May) : I would like to honor the two main sources of inspiration that made me write this story : the amazing 4th Book of the Power of Ten series written by RE Druin (ongoing, RR) which pushed me to create an original timeline, and the relationship between the entity known as Goldie and the main character of The Raptor of Life written by ioriangel (ongoing, SH).

You may have seen the tags already but bear in mind that the story is a fanfiction that will talk about gender identity, with a transgender main character and a girls love relationship. Harping about it in the comments will not be tolerated since you have been forwarned already.

Keep in mind that it is just a flight of fancy, that I'm in no way, shape or form a professional writer and that it will not be perfect. I will nonetheless strive to make it the most accurate and pertinent possible when it is due.

I am, also, not a native speaker. My english skillz are at roughly 90% self-taught. You are welcome to correct my poor mastery of your tongue in the commentary section if you do it nicely, I'll correct my, multiples, blunders.

I dedicate this idea and the story that follows to all the wonderful authors who write on SH and talks about those subjects because they are awesome folks.

With love, sh'. <<less

Filian has a lifelong friend. Nothing weird, just a best friend she's known all her life-- though Rosa is everything BUT normal. She shouts mathematical equations at her between bites of lunch, she moans the lack of something called a kalk-u-later, and she utterly hates even the merest mention of the country's prestigious Academy. Oh, and the air always seems to sparkle when she laughs.... more>>

And then suddenly a local duke waltzes in and claims her as his illegitimate daughter, and Rosa doesn't even bat an eyelash. Then she's enrolled into the Academy, and she's suddenly all jittery and afraid. Then she starts talking about probabilities? Plans? Routes? Secret targets?

Filian the commoner is as lost as she could ever be, and it's not going to get better anytime soon. Oh boy.

A light-hearted, comedic take on the isekai genre! :) Hope you enjoy!

Note/edit: I've come to notice that people sometimes do not know, so, um, yes, Filian (as boyish as the name may be) is female. :D <<less

//There are Two Gods in Heaven is an action-comedy about two dangerous soul mates who try to escape poverty thanks to a mysterious criminal organization. POV changes, unreliable narrators and lots of bad words rain down on the pages like bullets, and useless things like ethics aren’t part of their training.

The world is a dangerous place.... more>>

Men and women with power that leaves the world and all the insignificant lives upon it at their mercy. Many choose to exercise that power for selfish means, but a small group, a fraction of them; chose to use their power to defend the weak. They are the heroes of this world, the ones who risk their lives and sacrifice everything they are just to protect those that cannot protect themselves from the villains who would take everything from them.

Yet even these heroes, are flawed. They are not perfect despite their image of such. They are not all-powerful despite their actions speaking to the contrary. They make mistakes, allow emotion to cloud their judgement, and allow pride to stay their hand.

Villains are not born, they are made and often, they are made by the very heroes who fight to defend this world. These villains, in turn, make the heroes who fight them. A constant cycle that seems to have no end in sight, but ultimately, there is always something that changes. The world is never predictable, never simple, and always changes. Outliers and anomalies have come about many a time in the course of this cycle, but from this cycle, one rises that was different to the rest. He breaks the cycle and wades through the world of heroes and villains, forged by his actions and the actions of those around him.

His goals are simple, and the steps he takes to reach them are long and arduous. Each one is a struggle, but one that brings him ever closer to the end. However, often, the road to hell is paved with good intentions and as his journey progresses, the world suffers the consequences. <<less

It was in one of these towns that Anya was born.

Forced out of the only dwelling she had ever called home, the girl now must journey through the desolate wastes in search of purpose and a place where she may belong. Be warned, these lands show no mercy, not even to a sheltered child… <<less

Hey there, Mark Gregory here! This is the story of how I got sucked into the world of a trashy Harem manga that only lasted 12 chapters. I read it while I was high the night before and only vaguely remember anything about it....so yeah. No foresight. Also, it appears I am a brokenly powerful character, possibly the secret end boss, that was hiding in plain sight the whole time. - That is to say, the "Quiet Prince" student in their class.

My new name is Zeneff Silverscale...can you guess what I am? If you guessed overpowered godlike dragon, then you are correct! The problem is...I don't want to be evil...and I don't know enough about the story to follow along...so what do I do? I guess I will just do my best and see how things turn out.

Go with the flow, ya know? What's the worst that could possibly happen?

If you had the power to change the world—would you try to?... more>>

In the year 2036 a young teenager, Fate Reylin, awakens a power that should have been scientifically impossible. He has long since believed that the world is a cruel place, and when he gains psychic powers, he feels that he can finally make the world a better place.

As he discovers over time, changing the entire world isn't a straightforward task. It's never as simple as just doing what you think is right. Fate realizes this as his actions have far-reaching consequences on the people, and world around him—especially on those who are closest to him.

Ultimately, Fate must come to terms with the fact that sometimes it's not your choice to make things better, but rather how you react to the world around you which makes all the difference.

This story follows the life of one man who seeks to change the course of history by any means necessary: and in doing so—he must face the responsibility of creating what he fears most. <<less

Suddenly waking up without explanation in the body of a cultivation sect leader, 23-year-old student Aki ends up in quite the bind. Luckily he has one special skill: The ability to bullshit his way through anything. His confident and mysterious smile manages to convince everyone of his sagely wisdom, so no one suspects a thing!... more>>

Aki however faces a big issue – no one in this sect knows how to relax! They all believe in ironclad discipline, ascetic ways and casting off all mortal comforts in the singular pursuit of cultivation. How can Aki convince them to relax and try the joys of life?

What to expect from this novel:

-A light-hearted take on cultivation, featuring a lot of making up silly techniques.
-Sect development/economics will be treated more seriously.
-There will eventually be some romance in this, but it will take some time to get there.
-Chapters on Thursdays and Sundays <<less

Why is life precious?... more>>

Because you only have one.

Then what about the person who took over 999 lives?

Who died 999 tragic death as a villain?

Then, how would someone like that live?

The answer is simple... as he damn wishes.

“I-it’s not like I did it for you, you spinless Warrior.”

“Good, the doors to your left, you may leave now.” He said to the tsundere Knight.

PAH!

“How dare you hit a woman?”

“Who cares if you’re a woman? You slapped me when I just saved your life!”

“You touched my chest!”

“I said it was an accident, and again, I just saved your life — you know what? Fuck you, die here if you want to.”

“Wait, wait, come back! Don’t leave me here! I’m sorry!” the princess screamed for help after being tossed to the side of the road.

Theo did all this, yet to his dismay somehow, his reputation remained good in the eyes of many!

A Hero, A Righteous Warrior, Benevolent King, Shadow Lord, Beast Keeper — such were the names given to him...

To all of this, his reaction was always the same.

“WHY!? How did they come to the conclusion that I’m a Hero? Even my other identities who massacred a lot of people, mind you, are not any different!”

[I know, right? You are such an asshole, after all.]

“Shut up, Goddess!”

This is the story of the most malicious villain turned Hero.

The one with the darkest heart shining with the most brilliant name.

He does not hide, nor run, he’s — The Villain Savior.

Disclaimer: This is a slow burn story that integrates both Fantasy and somewhat sci-fi. The MC will be more of an anti-hero who will kill any and everyone that he pleases while still understanding the plight of a Villain. This is also family-centric with a dash of hidden identity, Yandere Romance, and character growth.

Cover not mine

Warning: The story/the MC depicted in this synopsis IS there, but, the earlier chapters are an introduction without rushing into things. This is a fantasy, but not just wish-fullfilment story, it is just slower than most.

For Chris, however, gaining powers helped him... or rather, her now, feel more human than before. Who would have known her power would reconstruct her body if she let it do its thing without paying attention?
