tragedy

Karma Arctis never belonged anywhere. A brilliant mind wasted in his parents' garage, living off resentment-fueled allowances, he drifted through life existentially numb—too sharp for the dull world, too bored to care. One day, a random paper on decision theory sparked something rare: genuine interest. He lifted it, read, and then... reality folded. Not metaphorically, but physically. He awoke inside Tier Zero, a sprawling VRMMORPG turned inescapable nightmare. Nothing made sense, his memories were jumbled up without clear order, as if a gaping hole were drilled in it and then surgically stitched together. In tier zero, there was no logout button, because the entire game was a deathtrap made by a psychopathic game developer — and subsequently, Karma and eight hundred thousand beta testers are locked inside it. If you die here, the neural feedback kills for real. The system’s cruel decree is absolute: only the player who conquers Floor 100 can unlock logout for everyone. In this tower of lethal puzzles, game-theory traps, and psychological warfare, ordinary minds fracture. But Karma? He was never ordinary. Among the blind masses scrambling for survival, this one-eyed genius becomes the reluctant king—dismantling impossible challenges with cold calculation, walking deathmatches with hands in pockets and a faint, knowing grin. A fractured squad gathers around him: the luck-plagued thrill-seeker, the crumbling streamer facade, the caged diplomat, the fang-flashing bluffer, the prodigy hiding shadows. They climb together, bonds forged in blood and betrayal. Yet every floor peels back more questions. Why does the code feel eerily familiar? Why do flashes of forgotten designs haunt his sleep? In a world that punishes the average, Karma Arctis may be the only one who can end the cage—or rule it forever.

In a world where everyone is born with the potential to awaken a power known as Arcana, the path to strength is a dangerous one. Awakening requires a "Persona Split"—a psychological fracturing where the mind loses its grip on reality. Caught in the chaos of who they truly are versus what they have become, many mages lose control, their newly found powers spiraling into destruction. Fourteen-year-old Silver Archive wants no part of this cycle. His only dream is a life of peace, far from the tragedies that have haunted his clan. But as the third in line to the nearly extinct Archive name, the pressure to awaken is mounting. Will Silver become another victim of the Persona Split, or can he find a way to claim his power without losing his soul?

"Cia.... Cia.... you have to let go and run", shouted her mother while her father was valorously fighting the Assassins and the beast. With no other choice, 10-year-old Alicia de Rayvine ran to get help and saw her parents dead when she returned. After losing everything, she was determined to avenge her family and started her journey. Will she be able to succeed in her conquest though her foe is the Emperor?

Xu Yang died.At least,that was supposed to be the end.When he opened his eyes again,he found himself lying in a cold forest,his body covered in wet black fur.He tried to move,but froze when he saw four small paws in front of him.He was a cat.Not just any black cat—a low-level cat demon inside a cultivation novel he had once read. A novel he never finished. Before Xu Yang can even process his new life,a cold voice suddenly sounds in his head. [System activated.] "...What?" [Host has been assigned nine lives.] Xu Yang blinks. [These lives are not blessings.] His smile disappears. "...What do you mean?" [Every life has a destined death.] "Excuse me?" [Death is mandatory.] Xu Yang stares into the distance. "Then why give me nine lives?!" [You may ask again after your first death.] "That's even worse!" And that's how Xu Yang discovers his new life comes with one very unfair condition: He is not allowed to live. Every life has a different path.Every death brings him closer to something he cannot yet understand.And every time he awakens again,the world changes in ways that shouldn't be possible. People forget him. Memories disappear. Events occur that were never written in the novel. Even the System begins behaving strangely. [Warning.] [Original storyline deviation detected.] "Can you fix it?" [No.] "Can you tell me what's happening?" [No.] "Then what are you useful for?" [Survival assistance.] "I'm starting to dislike you." [Acknowledged.] Unfortunately,the System is the least of Xu Yang's problems. The cultivation world is full of sects that hunt demons,immortals who hide their own secrets,and forces that seem to know more about his fate than he does. And somewhere along the way,Xu Yang realizes something is terribly wrong. His deaths aren't random. Someone or something is making sure each life ends exactly when it should.But fate makes one mistake.It leaves Xu Yang with the ability to choose what he does before he dies.So he starts changing things.One small choice then another.Until the story he once knew becomes unrecognizable. And the System gives him a final warning: [Host.] [You were never supposed to survive this long.] Xu Yang looks at the road ahead. "Then I guess Heaven should have written a better ending." Nine lives.Death is guaranteed. But Xu Yang has never been very good at following rules. First time writing fantasy story! Hope you enjoy:)

The Demon God had been defeated. After a long and grueling battle that cost him everything, Seo Mujin had finally ended the existence of the being that had terrorized humanity for thousands of years. Yet the next morning, no one remembered him. His name was gone. His face was forgotten. Even history no longer recorded that he was the one who had defeated the Demon God. Seo Mujin became a man without a past, wandering through the very world he had once saved. But as time passed, the memories he had lost slowly began to return.

James was twelve when Valoria exiled him — not as punishment, but as quarantine. On Earth, he carries a power that doesn't fit any known system, and Havenwood Academy doesn't know what to do with him. They classify him, train him, and assign him to a squad. But James isn't the only thing the Academy doesn't understand. Its models are beginning to fail, its records don't always match reality, and beyond its walls, the world is changing in ways no one has prepared for.

Jon Snow, a boy destined for a life of contempt by almost everyone around him, but a divine intervention can change everything. The boy who will pave the way to build the most powerful nation in the world. I crafted this story with a focus on the creation of a kingdom, battles, economy, navigation, and exploration of the entire universe of Planetos, with a central character in mind. Am I wealthy? The Stormlands, Dorne, the Reach, and the Westerlands all want to establish trade agreements with me. And the East? I have trade agreements with Braavos, Pentos, Myr, Tyrosh, Lys, and Volantis. I can negotiate with everyone in Essos, except in the Slaver's Bay after I stole 100,000 chained men from them. So, do you have enemies in Essos? About that? I indeed have quite a few. I started by stealing slaves from them, then raised a khalasar and began a bloodbath in the Dothraki Sea for fun. I was even named a Khal in Vaes Dothrak. Not to mention, the last time I went to Essos, I toppled the Titan's statue in Braavos. They wanted to stop me from destroying the House of Black and White. That day wasn't very pleasant for the Braavosi. Wow, and the kingdoms below the Wall? The Wall? It no longer exists; I brought it down a while ago. I took the North as part of my kingdom and left the South of the Neck to the Southerners. They tried to reclaim the kingdom, but now the Southerners tremble when they feel my armies on their lands. I've personally killed one or two of their kings. Really? Yes, ask what's left of Oldtown. I would answer, it turned to ashes. Lannisport? I burned it. Casterly Rock? It's at the bottom of the sea. The Twins? I blew up the entire place. King's Landing? The city is standing, but the Red Keep is history. -------------------------------------------- This Fanfic's Schedule for the week, updates on: Sunday, Tuesday and Friday. ---------------------------------------------- With gratitude and enthusiasm, Raccoon!

Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas is a sci-fi comedy action-adventure mystery thriller that begins with a terrible... but groundbreaking... mistake. Dr. Milo Finch, a brilliant, anxious young scientist with more intelligence than common sense, successfully invents a time machine. During what is supposed to be a short, observational test run, Milo is violently thrown into the distant past and crash-lands in the heart of an untouched jungle. There, Milo makes an impossible discovery: he has landed in the era... and the world... of Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. Far from a myth, Tarzan is intelligent, perceptive, and deeply connected to the natural world. Milo’s arrival immediately disrupts the balance of the jungle. His futuristic technology destabilizes time itself, attracting armed hunters and anachronistic forces that should not exist in this era. As Milo struggles to reconcile scientific logic with the terrifying reality that he may have broken history, Tarzan recognizes the danger Milo represents... and the necessity of his survival. The unlikely duo forms an uneasy alliance: Milo brings chaotic future knowledge, comic book references, and reckless innovation; Tarzan brings unmatched physical skill, strategic instincts, and the jungle itself as a weapon. Together, they uncover a growing mystery: someone else has learned to exploit time travel, using the past as a battlefield and resource. What begins as a survival story quickly escalates into a hidden time war, with Tarzan’s jungle as ground zero. As paradoxes multiply and reality begins to fracture, Milo must find a way to repair time before it corrects itself violently... by erasing everything in its path. Blending sharp comedy, high-energy action, and escalating thriller elements, Time, Tarzan, & Terrible Ideas reimagines a classic legend through the lens of modern sci-fi, exploring destiny, responsibility, and the consequences of asking “what if” one time too many.

“I am simply extending my hospitality. I respected you as a princess of a neighboring kingdom. So I act civilized. It has never crossed my mind to treat you like a prisoner. But it seems I failed to humor your expectation.” Swiftly Alexander approached me. Before he could come near, I pushed the chair backward and retreated until my back was on the wall. Shoot! This is not what I have in mind. I turn my head to the side, calculating the distance. If I were to sprint now, I would’ve escaped from this room. But before I can even make the move, Alexander has his body pinning me to the wall. He leered at me. His stare shows lust and desire while his eyes narrow, and his tongue licks his lips. I have dug my own grave! In the enchanting realm of heaven, two princesses, Seraphina and Ariella, with exceptional talents, embark on a journey to human realms.

And now I have transmigrated into it! The love triangle between the princesses and Prince Alexander would end in tragedy. I hated the male lead because of that. But I never imagined that the tragedy would shift to me! I was trapped in a love triangle between me and the villain, Aetherion, the King of Monsters, and Prince Alexander, who was obsessed with me and my gift. I have clearly chosen the villain as my love interest, but Alexander would not let me go. What should I do?

“Please send me back to the past.” If he cannot not kill that person in this era, he just needs to go back to the past. The man used the “Great Regression Technique” to cross time, going back to the past he desired so much. The “Unrivaled Swordsman” who had lost everything, his family, friends, and life. This is his first step to taking his revenge.

For seven years, the world hunted Code No. 00—a ghost responsible for the downfall of governments and the deaths of countless elites. On the day of his execution, he reveals a terrifying truth. Everything the world believed... was part of his plan. Death should have been the end. Instead, he awakens in another world, reborn as Leo Radiance—the infamous Cursed Child. Feared since birth, isolated from society, and hated by almost everyone around him, Leo has spent years living in exile because of a curse he never chose. But surviving isn't his greatest challenge. Ancient prophecies are beginning to crack. The history of the world is filled with lies. The so-called Cursed Children may be something far different from the monsters everyone believes them to be. As kingdoms, beast clans, and forgotten powers move in the shadows, Leo must manipulate allies and enemies alike to uncover the truth before the world tears itself apart. Because in a world built on lies... The greatest threat isn't the Cursed Child. It's the truth behind his birth.

He has been known by many titles: The Last Branch of the Blackthornes, The Demon of Grimcrest, The Lichspawn of Dirkaz, The Broken of Dragovitch...and Zepar has heard worse. Cast out as a child, condemned as a monster, Zepar learned early what the world does to those who are different. When love finally gives him a reason to hope, tragedy turns that hope to ash-and sets him on a path of forbidden magic, vengeance, and unforgivable sins. Lichspawn is a dark fantasy novella set in the Duskborne universe, chronicling the rise of one of its most feared figures. This is not a story of redemption-but of how a man becomes a monster.
