Death and Taxes. ... more>>

The two insurpassable laws of the universe.

So long as humans exist in this world, these things will remain.

However, there is a 3rd law which has always, and will always implement itself on people.

Suffering.

Reincarnated in a new world, five people are forced to learn this the hard way.

Placed on 'Nightmare mode' and being reincarnated as monsters, they are forced to survive under incomprehensible conditions.

However it is only through suffering, that we grow as people.

And it is only through suffering, that we truly become monsters.

"Nightmare mode.... eh? Tell me, what exactly was this mode supposed to mean again? Were our lives supposed to become nightmares?"

Without suffering, there is no change in anything.

"Or were we supposed to become the nightmares?"

Yan BarCarran has never felt at home. She’s an orphan among her extended family, a spacer among the ground dwellers while at school, and a one-in-a-million oddity born with the ability to use the God-given power. Still, at least at the Academy, an elite theological school where those with the power are sent to train, she knows where she stands. Her peaceful life falls apart when she receives her apprenticeship invitation at graduation.... more>>

Aymon Sandreas is the de facto leader of the Empire. He commands hundreds of powerful starships and keeps order among the planets under his rule. He’s also getting older, and the time has come for him to choose apprentices, one of whom will eventually become his chosen successor. He picks three students: the spiritual and talented Yan, the mysterious and troubled Kino, and the impulsive and striving Sid.

Now in the dead center of politics, Yan faces danger from would-be assassins and political rivals. If she doesn’t learn well enough and fast enough, she’ll die before she ever has a chance to make a difference. Between her fellow apprentices, the reformed criminal tasked with teaching her survival, and even her powerful master, Yan isn’t sure who to trust in this dangerous new world.

Sometimes, the right choice is the hardest thing to see. <<less

Dark Elves.
Enchanting, mysterious, dominating mavericks blessed with haunting beauty, great magics and built by the Gods themselves to reign over the lives of others.
Hated by their Elven brethren and feared by the world at large. These slave-mongering beings stand tall and confident in the knowledge that they as a whole are of the elite.
Too skilled to be conquered, too powerful to destroy, too dangerous to engage.
They fear nothing.
Born to rule, it is said they bow to no one, can not be controlled and are impossible to tame.... more>>

But are they?

Roughly two millennia ago, Mana and monsters appeared in the world of Eiruta overnight, forcing all organisms to undergo a selection process; those who could not adapt to the Mana died while the remaining reproduced and lived on.

This is a Fanfic... I don't own anything!!! All the characters except the MC and the World belong to J.K. Rowling!! Even the Art of the MC belongs to their respective owners. ... more>>

~~Some Notes~~
1st:- English is not my first language, though I will try my best to avoid mistakes.

2nd:- Neither the MC nor the MC's love interests would be involved in any type of sexual abuse or those type of scenarios.

3rd:- This is not your generic HP Fanfic, as it is take place in the Pre-Fantastic Beast and Fantastic Beast Timeline.

4th:- Since the whole plot about that timeline is not known the plot after the movie Crimes of Grindelwald is going to be very different.

5th:- This will be a weekly release fic so don't keep asking for updates. The updates will be posted on Wednesday/Thursday.

--~Synopsis (SEASON- I)~--

Aliyah Scionsong is a failed scion of her kingdom: a crumbling desert dominion entombed in poisonous mists, home to murderous Magicians and dimensional libraries bursting with secrets—a place where so-called ‘Healers’ are the most dangerous of all mages.... more>>

Under pain of necessity, Aliyah has learned the forbidden magics which mold flesh and bone to her will; magic that can heal or harm in equal measure. When a royal execution triggers an imminent battle between the Magicians and a nest of faeries, it falls on her to make some very difficult choices.

Save a traitor, become a traitor—she’s thrust into a world beyond the choking mists, where not all is as it seems. But at least she has her stolen knowledge. Perhaps her illegitimate magic will make the path ahead easier. Perhaps not.

Meanwhile, ripples of unease spread across the lands; trouble is brewing between faery factions. There’s a disgraced dungeonrunner, and a faery general carrying the broken ghost of her murdered queen. Faeries scheme; the Magicians watch and wait.

The Last Faery War has only ever been the last faery war for now.

Life is always simple with our MC.
Go to school, finish classes, go to the anime club, and discussing isekai anime with his gang. ... more>>

However, things start going wrong when everyone within the group starts having accidents until the MC is the last one left.
As our MC finally joins his friends in another world, how will their story goes. How many more trials do they have to face.

Will it be as lovey-dovey and diabetes-inducing?
Will it be a slice of life?
Will it be filled with hardships and tough choices?
Or will it be a total depression that haunts our protags through the story?

Only our MC will be able to know as he goes into that another world and faces the surprises.

This story will contain a lot of violence as killing and fighting. Cannibalism is also depicted in this story along with torture. If this type of story is uncomfortable with you, I think it would be best that you leave this story alone as it will be quite heavy with it. Gory bits such as internals coming out will not be shown in this story but in a spin-off story. The same can also be said towards sexual stuff though some indications would be hinted here.

This is also my first time attempting to write a novel so the method of writing and language might trigger someone. Since I am from Malaysia I might sometimes unconsciously include some Malaysian slang such as lah leh and the such inside.

Avan, a 25-year-old young man, is torn from his rather boring life. He awakens in Aorus, a world full of magic, monsters and dungeons.... more>>

By a stroke of luck and an ominous skill called "Potential", he awakens a new class never seen before called Dungeonheart (Human). Dungeons, although sentient, are never sapient nor mobile.

Join Avan as he pursues his passion for healing and martial arts, and building his very own dungeon at the same time. He’s the hybrid of a moving dungeon and a healer.

"Healing Dungeon" will include City building, strategy, very little romance, exploration of the world of Aorus, and a touch of power levelling. (There are elements from other fantasy novels, as well as anime, games, and more).
What will all be possible with a dungeon that can move, but still brings some of the familiar dungeon mechanics along for its journey?

-- Please note that the beginning and thus the first chapters were really my first writing works in english, and can only be rewritten at a later time (lack of time in favor for new chapters) --
(The writing style and also the story improves VERY much from the 12th chapter at the latest! Proofreading is available, but I depend on any well-intentioned advice from you guys).

If you have any questions, suggestions, constructive criticism, or just because you feel like it, feel free to leave me a comment below the respective chapters!
For every positive and serious review or rating, I am infinitely grateful! ;)

I am a creature of few words and the beginning is therefore a little faster than I would have liked it now in retrospect. Please do not expect huge paraphrases and descriptions of the environments, but only what is really necessary to get into the scene.

Cheers and hopefully see you in the comment section.

While on Earth, the Church secretly battles over the planet's destiny with multiple other factions; Gabriel was just delivering pizzas when he ended up in a battle among creatures that defied logic.... more>>

Sure, he thought, who doesn't love pizza? But do angels, demons, and big ass wolves eat pizza as well?

Gabriel was paid for his delivery, but the payment he got wasn't exactly what he hoped for, because for all his efforts, the man was rewarded with a lizard... and a world expecting a little too much from him than he was comfortable with.

Gabe will find himself in a different world, a world from which all Earth's current problems stem and a world to which he has more ties than he was ever told.

Will Gabriel and his lizard survive in a world so hell-bent on getting them to follow its rules, or will they die defying them? Follow their adventures on Alter, where elves, dwarves, orcs, and many more races share their existence with those of Spirits. Whether they like it or not.

Expected release will be 1 - 2 chapters a day, for now.

Given the abundant stack of chapters, there will be releases even on the weekends!

Release time 09:00 AM and PM UTC

This series is being posted on RoyalRoad as well.

Author blurb...

This story is a slow burn; I wanted to write something that felt at least probable, not the usual: man appears in a new world, everyone helps him, and he's fit and ready for the job!

Gabriel will need time to adapt to his new reality, as you'll definitely notice in the first chapters. However, when the action hits, it hits hard. 

Something to know about me? I'm Italian; I love foreshadowing and Chekhov's guns (it should be clear by my avatar, I'm a One Piece lover, so I've learned from the best), you'll find a lot of those in my novels. So keep your notes to check for them, and don't forget to eat as much pizza as you can! <<less

The main character will be somewhat close to the character of Vincent from the "Collateral" movie with Tom Cruise as the main lead. In looks and lack of empathy.

(He would also have the same name as Vincent after transmigration)

This is my first time writing, and my eng is only my 3rd language. I'm writing mostly for my own enjoyment.

I like psychos-type characters like Michael Mayers, Hannibal Lacter, or Vincent.

//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. Illustrated by a god-tier artist (Iciriini), you may enjoy reading through the Bayesian mind games, pop culture references and childhood traumas, because in the end it’s a story about healing, found-family and finding peace with one’s identity.// <<less

Ophelia Heide couldn't wait to become a new advisor for the Moon Castle and take her father's place! Well...... more>>

That was until she was saved by Leo, a fairy who protected the Galaxy Kingdom. To pay off her debt to him, she was stuck with the task of reuniting the two sides after the capricious kings had a war over... something. Not knowing where to start, she accidentally found her heart captured by the couple's daughter, Princess Koharu, but neither girl ever thought they would flirt with the boundaries of time and history to fight for their love.

Unfortunately, things weren't easy for Leo either as he worked to save the couple, unlocking the secrets of the kingdoms' administrations in the process. What he didn't expect was to find himself falling for an elusive messenger named Sinclair throughout it all, but would his heart allow them to come in?

New money rich kid. War General. Amnesiac. Most people live one life, Virgil Darko has lived three. ... more>>

It's been six months after losing his memory and Virgil has only just begun to adjust himself to prison life in Shrieker's Veil - the greatest island prison in all of Xyra. And it's problem after problem for Virgil, who's lost his memory and who can't seem to understand why everyone hates him. Or fears him.

After one prison fight, Virgil is sent to his cell starving only to be met with the most unlikely partner ever; Prince Ritcher. The prince, who's come all the way from the mainland to offer Virgil the greatest gift he could have, his memories. The task seems easy, for Virgil to read his diary and to make a thread between all the loose thoughts and images in his head. At a cost.

Virgil is forced into a choice to forget who he was, or remember all his tribulations in a bid for Ritcher to figure out where his partners in crime retreated to. Will Virgil be able to sell out friends? Friends he doesn't even remember anymore?

Or maybe sometimes past lives should be forgotten. <<less

Immortality, a coveted desire shared by many, remains an elusive and unattainable wish. Even the Gods and Primordial beings cannot claim they have an eternal life. To achieve immortality, one must embark on an arduous and treacherous journey fraught with immense pain, endless solitude, and unfathomable despair. Only a select few possess the resilience to traverse this path, yet even they cannot attain 'true' immortality. However, there always exists an exception.... more>>

In a nameless village, nestled among rolling hills, a humble peasant boy was born. Unbeknownst to him, he possessed a rare gift, a gift that held the potential for 'true' immortality. Yet, fate had its own designs, for the shadows lurking in the depths became aware of his existence.

And they will definitively not stand aside and wait for him to mature...

The theme of story is about man who is almost imposible to kill and the advantages and disadvantages that comes with it. Thus story will be contain body experimentation, torture and other such things that are not for everyone. Of course I don't plan to make it needlessly gory and uncomfortable for people. It won't be detailed that much.

The story was inspired from novels 'Immortal in the Magic World' and 'As an Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills. It is mostly about the idea of immortality rather than their story.

The sight of Demihuman caravans is less frequent every day, as the likes of orcs and elves have learned to no longer beg for help from those who despise them. Clearly, they can expect more from the voracious wild lands than from humankind.

Many have succumbed to despair, some driven mad by their fruitless efforts to bring back a Golden Age that they only ever read about in books.

And in the middle of it all, in an old chapel lost in the Eastern lands, young Gabrielle lives in complete ignorance. She is another orphan living under the mercy of the Church of the Saints; one bearing the mark of evil in her red hair, the telltale sign of a Witch.

In an Age of the Silent, the Prejudiced, and the Hateful, she clings to a single hope: that one day, be it in life or maybe after it all ends, she may find herself forgiven of her sin.
