This is a slow-burn isekai story about a young girl named Siya who was born with a weak body into a world that only cares about Strength. Because of this, she isn’t able to even use the only thing she has going for her, a knack for strategy, which is the last thing that the nation of meat heads seems to care about.... more>>

Turning to devine favor, unique abilities, and even magic and dark magic later on, they each come with a new problem. As she finds unlikely friends, and deals with unthinkable betrayals, she struggles to finally stand tall and place herself in a position of power where her true abilities could finally shine.

This is NOT a revenge story, but that isn’t to say the main character magically forgives people either. <<less

Cold is a special kind of cruel and Civilia is a country brimming with it. One of the last safe havens spared by the Mist. Not even the supernatural force of the Mist seems to want anything to do with it. The people not even worth swallowing.... more>>

I know you’re here looking for an epic story about a powerless chemistry teacher turning a fantasy world and its rules on its head, having to rely on others to fight brutal battles, surviving impossible odds, to navigate difficult relationship dynamics, of a human having to handle being surrounded by people who consider the rules of physics little more than guidelines, and of carving out a place to call home in a dangerous world.... more>>

But let me level with you. Rick Cross might be the reason this new world gets itself the equivalent of the Geneva Convention, but he is also a flawed human pushing thirty in a world where he barely has a penny to his name. Lacking any magical abilities of his own, it will take sweat, blood, deception, and more than a bit of luck to get to where he conquers places and people (Unless you want to skip the pain and jump to chapter 20).

Titus stood on the edge of the rooftop, staring at the city below. The dull hum of traffic, the distant laughter of strangers, and the cold wind brushing against his face did nothing to shake the emptiness inside him. This wasn’t where he thought he’d be in his early twenties. No degree, no career, no purpose. The weight of it all pulled him down. It's like life gave him a game but never told him the rules or how to play.
He sighed and got his cell phone out. Another rejection email. Another door slammed in his face. Maybe it was time to stop trying. Well, as he was closing the email, his phone vibrates... more>> again. A new message from an unknown source.

[You have been chosen to receive the Lifeline System. Ready to change your life?]

Titus blinked, thinking it was some kind of joke or trash mail. But the words lingered in his mind. Ready to change your life? Thinking twice, he clicked "Accept" and without realizing it he just took a step into a world where all the rules of life were about to be changed forever. <<less

Now, with only his ruthlessness and an ever-increasing body of alchemical knowledge, he has to make his way in this new world, because being poor sucks no matter where you are.

When Silas is transported to another world and granted the seemingly invincible ability of Infinite Damage Absorption, he quickly becomes known as the unbreakable hero. But there's a catch - a cruel twist of fate that turns his blessing into a curse.... more>>

For every wound he shrugs off, every blow he endures, the pain merely lies in wait. The price of his power? To suffer it all tenfold when the bill comes due.

Will the weight of his accumulated suffering ultimately crush his spirit? Follow his journey as he seeks a way back home and perhaps a way to truly master his double-edged gift in a realm where every victory comes at a cost. <<less

Hi, Mr and Mrs Mooncat here. Our work is quite different with distinct local flavors as it is based on our ancestral home in a small Asian country, Malaysia (although currently, we're residing on the moon). Hence, expect a lot of footnotes, local food, places, and slangs within ;) It's a fun way to get to know Malaysia from the eyes of the locals. We also have a Patreon account under the name mrandmrsmooncat where we posted supporting auxiliary articles about ASTHW world and a few side stories. Interested readers could only access them by subscribing with us <3

Mrs Mooncat isn't able to write as much as before and has decided to reduce the number of chapters per month to be more realistic. The change will take effect from June 2021 onwards.

Nicholas is a sixteen-year-old mage in training when the future comes looking for him. They tell him he’s not going to be a great man, his son is. They tell him he’s going to die, a mere footnote in a grand tale of overcoming odds and right versus wrong.... more>>

Except Nicholas doesn’t care overly much about being great, or living a long life, he just wants to have fun with his friends. Evil high mage who? Time travelling son where? But it's becoming a bit difficult to ignore things when the high mage is spreading his influence over the world and Nicholas' son is toppling governments.

Honestly, Nicholas is an optimist so…things could be worse. <<less

There are many possible fates that can await those whisked away from our world to another.... more>>

Some became heroes or villains, given the right power to forge their own destinies as they wished.

Others, the powerless, became victims, doomed to perish, at the mercy of the cruel world filled with mystical powers they are unprepared for.

A lone man that woke up alone under the alien sky was neither of those.

He didn't get to choose what he was going to become - a disaster, an unwilling source of intelligent, yet violent monsters, rapidly rising in numbers. Stranded in a foreign land, without even knowing the language, forever locked in the unending cycle of violence he neither wished for nor can escape from. His creations may be the only company he would ever find.

The man wasn’t powerless. But was he really that much better off?

It just took one wrong power. <<less

This novel contains explicit adult themes and "complex" relationships between family members. However, if you're here only for NSFW content, you will likely be disappointed.

Su Jing transmigrated into a cultivation story.... more>>

Now, you might think that's all well and good, but let's not forget one crucial detail: Su Jing was not the star of this story, not by a long shot. The spotlight belonged to someone else, a girl who's got it all—talent, luck, power, and even a beautiful man who's madly in love with her.

And Su Jing? She's just trying not to get killed, which is no small feat in a realm where folks trained endlessly to harness their inner qi and do supernatural things like fly on swords, shoot fireballs, and debate the meaning of life while suspended upside-down on mountaintops.

As Su Jing navigates through this over-the-top story, she discovers that her mere presence is throwing everything off balance. She's not the chosen one, and she's definitely not here to save the day. But somehow, the story is changing, and Su Jing isn't even lifting a finger.

Let's just say her days of boring, ordinary existence were officially over.

We follow the compelling journey of Valenus, a person burdened by the weight of personal challenges, most notably the illness of their father. At home, Valenus is engulfed in a sea of guilt and responsibility, constantly struggling to find a balance between their personal anguish and the needs of their family.... more>>

Amidst this emotional turmoil, Valenus seeks a momentary escape from the oppressive realities of his situation, tirelessly searching for something, anything, that could provide a distraction, yet each attempt seems to lead nowhere.

In an unexpected turn of events, Valenus encounter a seemingly ordinary video game, discarded and forgotten on the ground. Driven by curiosity and a desperate need for distraction, Valenus takes the game home. Little do they know, this game is far from ordinary.

Upon starting the game, Valenus is suddenly and inexplicably transported into its virtual world. This is no mere coincidence; the game, as if alive with purpose, has chosen Valenus.

Now, within this new reality, Valenus is forced to adapt to an environment where fantasy and danger coexist.

In this game world, Valenus faces a myriad of challenges and formidable monsters.

Each obstacle pushes Valenus to the brink, demanding ingenuity, courage, and resilience.

"Worlds Beneath The Shadows" is a story of escape and return, of facing one's fears in a world where the lines between reality and fantasy blur, and where a person's true strength is often found in the most unlikely of places. <<less
