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 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 new cosmic tree has been planted.... more>>

‘True was the cosmic tree beacon to protect and champion all the beauty of the stars. I know some will call me naïve, but I sincerely believe in that light.’

Unfortunately, not everyone likes omnipresent walking nukes playing bodyguards to humpback whales and starry-eyed kids with dreams to cure cancer. Facing the possibility of challenges, scum and villains from across the Astral Sea decide it is now or never to pave their brutal reign.

With the peaceful illusion out the windows, chaos inevitably knocked on the door.

Caught in the crossfire of the multiversal crisis, the Earth is shoved up the Astral Sea to meet its new neighbors—a grim escalator to a time bomb.

Considering this escalation, True's response is simple: first train the two schmucks from the planet Earth and build the taskforce to forklift those scums and villains down the comical mass grave.

One way or another—be it Earth’s prided capitalism, fusion-powered satellite laser, or their homegrown outer gods — the Order of True shall prove good is not toothless

Before the invasion, the king of Rennaya gathered the blood of over a billion of his people. Synthesizing and experimenting with it, all to recreate the legendary being. He then entrusted his young son, Osei, with the task of bringing his sibling to life, on Earth.

Osei accomplished the mission and kept the Earth safe, but was captured in the process. Twenty years passed and Osei returned to Earth, as a runaway slave. Shaking Tobi's world with his real identity and awakening the dormant powers within him. The only problem is, Earth is no longer safe... <<less

Benjamin wasn’t reincarnated to another world as a reward for a life well lived.

Now using a broken system, he must attempt to navigate a strange fantasy world while otherworldly magic slowly burns away everything he is in an attempt to save his friends and find a way home.... more>>

Expect lots of: A broken system, a strange high fantasy world, magic-as-coding metaphors, brutal combat, emotional trauma and not much in the way of romance.

In a world devastated by otherworldly invaders, Earth's survivors cling to the memories of a time before the great war. A time before legions of monsters poured forth from portals, toppling the bastions of civilization.... more>>

A time before salvation was delivered in the form of young girls swarming with magic, light, and hope.

To those that would survive, the Terrans — denizens of a parallel world that had come to Earth's aid represented both hope and resentment alike. A north star of prosperity, and a bitter inequity.
 
For Ikazuchi and his family, dealing with surging crime, horrifying monsters, roving gangs, and grueling hyperinflation is simply another day in the week. In these dismal living conditions, Ikki would do anything to see a better life for his loved ones.

Fortunately for Ikki, he is offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to start over on Terra, a parallel world unmarred by the ravages of the Aberrations.

Unfortunately for Ikki — before his departure, a chance encounter with a roving gang of slavers nearly spells his end. In a frantic fight for survival, he stumbles upon him a piece of enigmatic Terran technology.

A sentient magitech companion that strangely, finds him at the right place and the right time, warning him of an impending cataclysm...

A/N: This is a reboot of my other story — Origin: How I Became A Magical Girl's Hapless Sidekick In A Craptastic World. The story had some fantastic ideas on paper, but the structure and planning was fundamentally a mess. This reboot has had a lot of love and care put into it, and I hope it rectifies a lot of the mistakes and issues with the original.

Thank you for supporting me ♥.

It was a hot night in August when the unthinkable happened. A night that would go down in history as the best thing that had ever happened to some, and the absolute worst event possible for everyone else. Portals appeared on Earth and people all over the world were transported into video game worlds. Some players obtained great power inside the portals they entered. Many others were not as lucky. ... more>>

Due to strict parents, Redmaw was never allowed to play video games. Raised in an abusive and neglectful household, he was rarely allowed off his parent's property in rural Connecticut. With most of his knowledge of the outside world learned from outdated books, he struggled to survive the chaos caused by the portals. Unfortunately for him, others had already set their sights on the poor Iksar. Surrounded on all sides by new characters that competed for his attention, Redmaw needed to select his companions carefully. The decisions made by him, and those that surrounded him, could have disastrous ramifications for the entire planet.

This story will follow Redmaw as he travels around Earth and enters portals to obtain items and power. The video games played are REAL games that exist in our world right now. Redmaw starts off in an Everquest portal, but any and all games are possible in the future.

This story will be dark. Humans that are spontaneously granted super-powers are already at high-risk of abuse. Add in the collapse of the government, the lack of clean water, the disappearance of easily accessible food, and the world will quickly delve into barbarism. Like a zombie apocalypse, but with fewer zombies. Players in this world will either be strong, obey the strong, or die. Death is not necessarily an escape either, since Clerics with Revive magic and Necromancers with Raise Dead spells exist now. Many characters will not find an escape from this hell. For some, death will be a luxury that they will never be able to afford.

This story is meant to be interactive. Readers can suggest video games for Redmaw to visit and gain benefits from.
Readers are encouraged to dig deeper into the story to unravel the mystery occurring behind the scenes, but it is NOT required. Not all portals Redmaw enters will be crucial to the story, but some of them are incredibly important for his future. <<less

After a nightmare encounter in an alley, Michaela (Mackie) awakens to find herself dragged into the madness of the Wary Earth, a place where magic hides from ordinary folk; and she is no longer ordinary folk. On the surface, Mackie has been transformed into a beautiful paladin; but underneath, she discovers a sinister hungering. She’s soon hunted down by Helen Eden, who claims to be her sister.

OK, the series has 5 books written (3 and 5 need edits) and I'm writing the 6th. I'll put out 2 chapters a week on Sunday/Wednesday. My chapter sizes were out of this world and I've tried to make them more compatible with this format; sorry if things get too long/short.

Books 1,2 feature Helen/Mackie as protagonists; 3/4/5 Demia/Melindra; and book six introduces Zoe. Not a lot of sex scenes until deep into the series, as a warning.

Closest parallel to the series in Nine Princes in Amber. The Edens get along better...maybe too much better. Incestuous themes warning. <<less

"My lord," cried his loyal companions amidst the chaos, their voices tinged with desperation. "The enemy approaches, and our defenses falter!"... more>>

"Sister, flee while you still can!" Liam urged, his heart heavy with the weight of impending loss.

"Honey," whispered his beloved, her voice trembling with regret. "Forgive me for my mistakes. I cannot bear to lose you again."

With a heavy sigh and a sense of resignation, Liam steeled himself for the inevitable.

"Very well," he murmured, his words tinged with a solemn acceptance.

"It seems my time in this life has ended."

Sigh, I will have to start again in a new world.

Yet, a sudden warning shattered the fragile peace even as he prepared to face the unknown. A thunderous and divine voice reverberated through the void, sending tremors of fear rippling through Liam's soul.

And the system frantically sends out warnings of danger.

[Host, please be careful. An extremely powerful being has locked onto the host's soul from one of the many worlds the host had visited before]

Without being able to react to this sudden, dire situation.

It boomed, echoing across the expanse of the cosmos.

"Honey, don't run away again this time!"

Liam's heart raced as the ground trembled beneath him, and a colossal hand tore through the fabric of space, reaching towards him with an insatiable hunger. Panic seized him as he realized the gravity of his predicament.

"Honey"

The voice called out again, its tone both tender and menacing.

"I am coming for you. There is no escape."

With adrenaline coursing through his veins, Liam knew that his only chance lay in embracing the unknown and venturing into the uncharted depths of the cosmos. With a steely resolve and a newfound sense of purpose, he braced himself for the journey ahead, knowing that his fate—and perhaps the fate of entire worlds—hung in the balance.

"F!!"

"You crazy woman, I told you that I am dead. Why are you still chasing after me?!" <<less

One day, upon dying, Jun was a soul who was suddenly captured by the villain system.... more>>

Every world she lived a tragic life.

Every ending was the same.

Unlike many others who obeyed quietly under the system’s order, or to seek a quick death, Jun never stopped retaliating against her fate.

Since Jun refused to give in, the system plotted to break her mind apart. However, after “countless” deaths, Jun remained firm in herself, and only she knew her maliciousness grew stronger and deeper.

But Jun was not afraid.

Paranoia and hatred might run deep in her mind, but no one was more clear than her that only when one dared to challenge their fate could they truly grasp their own “destiny”.

Villains could also have a life without being overshadowed by the brilliance of the protagonists too.

“My chosen demise? The righteous protagonists rule? They don’t matter. Eventually, I will reclaim what’s rightfully mine.”

Even if it takes everything that I need to get what I want.
