Vale Bryce is a hunter because her dad wants her to be one. She is a loner because all hunters are. She is a drifter because that is how hunters find their jobs. ... more>>

Those are lies. Vale is none of those things, the lies the only thing keeping her alive. Until one day she slips up. A single moment of truth ruins it all, awakening a longing for a life not built on things she isn’t.

Vale has to go back to lying. She has to. The Inquisition will kill her if she doesn’t. But the truth is too addictive. Vale is not a vampire. That is a lie. That is how she will die.

Yet maybe... dying happy is better than dying a lie?

As someone is transmigrated, you learn most of the world through their eyes and who maybe close to her.
Sahara has lived and died once before, making her adapting nature look strange and unfitting. In this new world she is a father’s daughter and adopted grandchild to the same man…Go ahead and laugh, she did…
Sahara doesn’t want to put up with nonsense, like getting picked on just because she is smarter than the average person her ‘age’…I mean, she did transmigrate, so of course she’s smarter than what her body’s age should be!
Nonetheless, this world is a dog-eat-dog world, a world where only the strong survives, and so, there are times when a... more>> darkness inside of her is used to keep herself and her loved ones safe…

Over a century ago, there was a Golden Emperor, and a golden bridge that connected all the Haven’s together…Now there is no Golden Emperor and there is no Golden Haven…
To become the one and only Golden Emperor though, one must get the trust of all the Haven’s to accomplish that feat once again…
And so, we continue this journey as the strange occurrence of transmigration has happened…Which only leads to a fate that had started long ago…

I) All tags are relevant but most chapters are not too extreme. Fair warning dear reader, this is an 'unfiltered' story, sometimes sweet, others bitter, touching some heavy subjects or problems, like crime, war, betrayal, pride, politics, revenge etc set in a Epic Fantasy backdrop with shades of Grimdark. In its heart of hearts though, it is an adventure.

Fukaze Honzo is a 16-year-old student that frequently struggles with... well existing. Set in the rather 'boring' suburbs of Takabata, in Nagoya, Honzo has a hard time trying to come to terms with himself, despite his clear privileged status in society and a friendship group. He suffers from episodes of depersonalization, with him feeling like an outsider within his own body. As he starts the second year, he finally recognizes that this gloomy and negative personality might need to change, or at least improve his outlook. Just as fortune may have it, there's an idealist, maybe even naive, senpai who invites him, and his friends to a brand new school club. ... more>>

It's called the Culture & Travel Club. A club all about making the community a better place and learning all about the world. And that all starts here, in Nagoya. Despite this, Honzo still needs to navigate the absurdities of living. One day, he might start appreciating himself. Perhaps, even someone else, too.

---------------
Warning: There are some topics that might be a bit upsetting. The characters talk about murder/manslaughter and crime as well as a vehicular accident.

There is no pattern to dropping anymore but I try on Tuesdays. This is also the first web-novel I've written, so I really have no idea if it's even adequate. I literally only started writing for fun and a month later, I have now written enough for at least someone else to read. I'm really just talking about genuine social issues that apply to both my home nation and, not trying to be patronizing, Japan too within the confines of a romcom that's wholesome enough for someone to probably ignore the issues raised.

Thanks, if you're reading this and I hope you at least had a modicum of enjoyment, if you do read the story.

Also, I know Fukaze Honzo's name makes literally no sense <<less

It's been two years since Akane Takemasa's mother died, and though she doubts she'll ever be the same, her life has started to come back together. She's got a loving sister and father, devoted friends, and a passion for kendo that keeps her moving forward.... more>>

But her newfound calm life is turned upside down with a message from beyond the grave: Akane's mother was a Magical Girl, and now, Akane is too.

Gifted - and burdened - with an incredible set of abilities, Akane must chart her path through a lethal world of magic and monsters, not as herself, but as Firefly, her newfound alter ego. She will protect her city, no matter what stands in her way - not monsters, not men, not anything.

Not even herself.

A tale of the Quaranteam world, original by CorruptingPower... more>>

Adam Jeffries tried to do his best in the face of two separate plagues sweeping the world, able to kill fully 25% of women who contract it and over 80% of men. It wasn't enough. Following a break-in he finds that he has contracted it... when he wakes up in the hospital, apparently a rare male survivor. Now the government, seemingly by way of apology, is making sure he gets his vaccine serum in order to make sure he doesn't have to go a second time around. The serum, however, kills men even faster than the disease. The solution? Make it sexually transmitted, and assign remaining men partners according to a compatibility engine called Oracle.

There were... side effects.

Some were known. The women experience a sharp spike in libido and amazingly powerful orgasms, and become bonded to their partner for life. Others were not so common. Some people experience a rapid healing, though not all. The members of Team Jeffries seem to have a unique reaction to the bonding, transforming over time and much more. Where it stops, nobody knows... but the same forces behind the project of saving humanity seem to have taken an interest. Adam? He just wants to live. Is that too much to ask? <<less

But Falyn isn't rejected. Instead, Falyn finds a new beginning, a chance to heal the wounds of his past, and love he never expected. <<less

Eric, a 20 year old virgin with no prospects, spends his days wasting away in his bedroom, lurking on 4chan and getting into arguments with strangers to assert intellectual dominance.

A path to escape from this cycle of anger and apathy that consumes his existence. ... more>>

As far back as I can remember, I’ve always hated being touched. It was the one parting gift she left me before walking out of... more>> my life forever. Nothing had changed in my final semester of high school, and I figured nothing really would until I found myself in a predicament: join a club or face repeating the year due to my procrastination. Fortunately, my English teacher had started a new club, and I took my place as its sole member. That quickly fell apart as girl after girl from Luke’s former harem ended up in the club. Despite that setback, I came to realize that we may share more in common than I had thought. Maybe–just maybe–things would be different, after all.

I never thought I would get to watch the collapse of civilization in real time. Yet, here I am. One of the survivors of an apocalypse that no one quite understands. All we know is that something is in the water. Every river, lake, stream, ocean, sea, well, ditch, puddle. You name it. All of it has been infected by something. It was happening for months before solid rain fell from the sky. I don't mean snow or hail. I mean crystalized rain. ... more>>

It was the solid rain that sparked the changes. First were animals that mutated. Then it was humans. Governments tried to keep things quiet but word began to get out. Stories of people lighting things on fire with their minds. Of others crushing stones with their bare hands. But it wasn't just fancy powers that people got. Some became freakish monsters. Some even turned into cannibalistic zombie-like monstrosities. Me? I don't really know, all I know is I have somehow survived.

But I suppose, it just doesn't matter anymore.

Author's Note here!

I started writing this on a whim as a side hobby.

English is my second language and I usually spend time around 1-4 AM writing a chapter while the day time is for freelance work and a personal project, but I'll try my best.

If I get a big order that may take away the time working on this novel, I'll leave a note.

Sorry in advance.

Most gender bender novels fulfill certain degree of fantasy (I also want to be a girl), but this novel might focus less on this aspect compared to others.

Currently I'm still thinking about whether to include romance or occasional smut chapters, but since the plot is rather heavy, those won't be the main focus of the series.

For now the temporary cover is generated by AI. Maybe I'll make one after I finished my personal project. <<less
