tragedy

A modern historian and a rebel caught in Endless time loops, fighting fate across eras to break free... As they uncover who is controlling history itself, they must choose between preserving a stable world built on erasure or breaking time to reclaim free will.

Robert Tucker lived in hell—only to be reborn into a world even crueler. He grew up under the same roof as a violent, abusive man: an alcoholic, a gambler, a shadow that turned Robert’s childhood into a relentless nightmare. When Robert finally found refuge in mixed martial arts, everything began to change. At eighteen, with his escape within reach and his future taking shape, a single mistimed blow during a sparring match ended his life. But death was not the end. He awoke in another world, reborn as Marcus Grayson. Fate, however, was merciless. In this new life, Marcus had also been born to an abusive, gambling father—though, by cruel mercy, the man vanished before Marcus could truly know him. Yet this world offered something Robert had never had: a family. For the first time, Marcus believed he could live an ordinary, peaceful life. But hat illusion shattered the moment he learned the truth about the world he now inhabited. This was not Earth. Humanity stood on the brink of extinction, hunted by monsters of countless forms that roamed the land. The only reason humans survived was because of Transformers—individuals capable of abandoning their human shape and becoming monsters themselves in order to fight back. Marcus is one of them. With no grand destiny promised and no safety guaranteed, Marcus can only do one thing: Endure. Grow stronger. Fight. Not for glory, but to protect the fragile family he has been given. Because in this world, survival demands sacrifice— and Marcus has yet to understand what he is truly facing. —————————————————— * No harem. * MC with emotions, not a cold edgy lord. * No system or golden finger. * The other characters matter. * A lot of fights, I love fights. * I accept ideas for powers and characters. —————————————————— * No harem. * MC with emotions, not a cold edgy lord. * No system or golden finger. *The other characters matter. * A lot of fights, I love fights. * I accept ideas for powers and characters.

And what will it cost both of them as their worlds collide? This is a story of obsession, love, betrayal, and courage, set against the backdrop of high school drama and jealousy.

Lior is an ordinary teenage student. One day, after arriving home from high school, he went to sleep in his bed. When he woke up, he had no idea what had happened or why he was there.

Hawkins is small, but its secrets are big. Will Byers has always kept to himself — sketching in quiet corners, surviving on routine, and hiding from the chaos that seems to follow him no matter where he goes. Mike Wheeler has his own battles: trying to fit in, trying to be brave, trying to keep himself together when everything feels like it’s spiraling. When fate (or recklessness) throws them together, they discover something neither expected: someone who sees them, someone who matters. But the quiet comfort of connection doesn’t last long. A night out spirals into tragedy. Chrissy Cunningham, a friend, is found dead, and Eddie Munson — a boy who’s always been different — is accused. The town turns on him. Loyalties are tested. Friendships are stretched to breaking. And the lines between right and wrong blur with every step through the dark streets and shadowed woods of Hawkins. As Hopper hunts for the truth, as Jason and his friends chase vengeance, and as Max joins the hunt to protect those she cares about, Will and Mike find themselves not only confronting danger but their own feelings, discovering what it truly means to trust someone — and to be brave enough to love, even in fear. The Quiet Things We Hide is a tense, cinematic, small-town drama about friendship, first love, moral grey areas, and the costs of loyalty when everything you care about is on the line.

After reaching the peak of cultivation, Sai is reborn and abandons his pursuit of absolute power to walk the Dao of Teaching instead. In a declining sect, he accepts disciples from unlikely paths and guides them not through brute strength, but through understanding—of the Dao, of themselves, and of the cruel world they now belong to. But fate does not change quietly. Assassinations, hidden schemes, and forces moving from the shadows begin to tighten around the Four-Leaf Clover Sect. Each disciple is pushed toward choices that will scar their bodies, fracture their identities, and shape their destinies forever. In this world, survival is not decided by talent alone, but by how much one is willing to lose to keep moving forward. This is a story about balance and corruption, loyalty and manipulation, and the price of walking against the current of Heaven. This is an original work.

The Heavenly Court's hypocrisy disgusted its creator, the First Venerable. The Second Immortal King of an Era felt a chance at budding love. The Limitless Demon gave its head in chaos, indifferent to Heaven's Cage. The Savage One teemed with joy, finding a new reckless companion. The Blooming Red Lotus exuded a soft fragrance, sending ripples from future to past. And the Bean Stalk's Creator was left in the dust. Theft was its fortune, and the lucky savage shuddered in rage, having its culture shattered. The era of murder and peace was in the past, and chaos ensued anew. Let him dream, let him dream. Let him savor the future droplets of time and the sweetness of Dream's darkest realms. He is the spirit of all filthy beings, and his 'Gu' will seed the essence of Heaven and Earth. *** PS.

The apocalypse didn’t destroy the world. It erased knowledge. Civilization collapsed, magic replaced science, and monsters inherited the land. Humanity survived—but only barely. I was reborn into that world. I learned quickly that power here is inefficient, fragmented, and fundamentally flawed. Mages store mana in fragile circles. Aura users flood their bodies without understanding control. I chose a different path. I connected mind, heart, and core into a single system—Arcane Soul—and built Chessmaster, an operating system designed to treat reality like a board and every conflict like a game of strategy. Gravity answers my calculations. Flesh obeys my intent. Magic bends when properly optimized. Then I made one mistake. A ritual went wrong. My memories shattered. I woke up surrounded by corpses, blood on my hands, and consequences I couldn’t remember creating. Now I move forward carefully. This world is full of gods, monsters, academies, and ancient entities pretending they can’t die. They believe power is about talent, lineage, or destiny. They are wrong. I don’t need destiny. I only need time.

Samantha noticed that Donathan had strikingly captivating eyes, a rarity she had never encountered before, despite having seen many attractive men. His thick, sharp eyebrows, his lips. Every line of his face and every small expression had a natural, almost dangerous charm that kept her staring. Even his anger seemed to make him more attractive, turning him into a picture of wild beauty she couldn't look away from.

SYNOPSIS A detective, known for his steadfastness and sharp instincts, commits a series of grave sins to solve one case that could not be closed by righteous means. He manipulates evidence, allows deaths to occur, and ultimately takes a life with his own hands—all in the name of justice. That decision does not lead him to victory, but to a punishment more cruel than death. He is cursed to become a shadow. Formless, untouchable, invisible, and unrecorded by the world. He can still think and observe, but his existence is no longer acknowledged by the laws of nature or man. The city he once protected moves on, while he is trapped in the spaces between light and darkness, enduring absolute solitude. When the curse drags him into another world—foreign and merciless the detective persists in doing the one thing he knows: investigate. Not for praise, not for redemption, but because it is the only way he can feel he still exists. Every truth he uncovers always ends up nameless, dismissed as coincidence or fate. Over time, he realizes his sins cannot be atoned for, only paid for. When a great threat emerges, endangering many worlds, he is faced with a final choice: to continue existing as a shadow, or to erase himself completely for the sake of saving all those who never knew him. The Shadow That Once Was a Detective is a story about justice without witnesses, sacrifice without recognition, and a man who chose to do the right thing, even if it meant being forgotten forever.

Raised in secrecy and sent to Galka War Academy, he survives among boys trained to kill, endure, and obey. While others rely on strength and discipline, Sagiri carries something older. an echo that sharpens his senses, bends his body, and slowly erodes his humanity.

Their return is feared more than war. Sagiri carries the last spark of their power. A whispering presence tied to his heartbeat. A force that chooses its own master. But when he crosses paths with Lira, a girl unknowingly created to kill him, the Echo reacts violently breaking the barrier meant to forget and he remembers. Visions flood his mind. Forgotten beings turn their eyes. And the world begins to shift around him. The South wants to crown him. The North wants to erase him. The Echo within him wants something else entirely. And it has finally awakened. https://discord.gg/gMa9tend

When a devoted fan of A Song of Ice and Fire opened his eyes, he found himself standing in Westeros. Not as a king. Not as a lord. He became Suleiman, a nameless minor knight under the impoverished Daddings family, living by the muddy lower reaches of the Green Fork in the Riverlands. No gold. No soldiers. No influence. The family ruled over barely fifty peasants and held a status so low they were nothing more than silent figures in the corners of noble banquets. Before him stood the crushing weight of eight thousand years of aristocratic hierarchy. Yet in a land torn by war and shifting tides, this outsider from another world began his climb. From the mockery of “Sir Stinky Castle” on the edge of a swamp… to the throne of the Trident itself. In Westeros, even the smallest pawn can become a king.

But this fragile balance would be shattered forever when ancient forces finally broke free.

The goal is to let readers experience the journey alongside the characters, witnessing their struggles, decisions, and transformations in a way that feels natural and immersive. We hope you enjoy exploring the story and the world, and that the characters’ journeys resonate with you as much as they did with us while creating them.

"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”
