In a distant past, the seven Ancestral Beasts clashed, and the blood they spilled rained onto the entire plane, infecting humans and animals alike, making them part of their powerful bloodlines. As a small village’s hunter, Liam was unaware of the consequences of that legendary battle. His sole goal was to become a cultivator to gain the strength and resources he needed to avenge his family. Yet, when Liam’s Ancestral Bloodline awakened, he uncovered a connection between his family’s killers and the Dragon King, a connection that could expand his revenge to the entire Kingdom. -------------------- Discord link: https://discord.gg/mefzf3aQJ8 Instagram: eocnovels X: @EoCNovels Cover artist: https://digitalrowye.com

This story follows a young man named Prince Jacob. On a day that he was meant to enjoy, he gets marked with an insidious skull, seemingly locking a dreadful destiny in place. He soon realizes that his kingdom's problems are nothing compared to the horrors living beyond the stone walls. Despite destiny going against him, Jacob continues pursing his impossible dream through miserable trials and unravelling dozens of mysteries about his world.

It was a world known for its peace—until chaos arrived and wars erupted between the absolute races that inhabit it. But those races are here only because of humans: the humans angered the two absolute races, which resulted in the destruction of an entire country—the country that started the war. Now the humans are fighting to survive. What the people of that country did remains unknown, because so far that nation has been unreachable due to the current state of the war.

“Daily posts. The Endless Psalms express all things in the universe with brief words. These short worlds accumulate, creating the cosmos and the Omniverse.”

Ayden wakes up in a cold, dark dungeon—surrounded by snarling monsters, pools of blood, and strangers whose faces he doesn’t recognize. A strange voice echoes inside his head, whispering rules he doesn’t understand. He doesn’t know why he’s here, or how he got trapped in this nightmare. All he knows is one thing: he has to survive. And somehow, find a way back home. But as the terror closes in, he uncovers a power buried deep within—a power to defy death itself. This story is also published by me (pen name: alexder204) on RoyalRoad.

The boys summoned from Earth were meant to be heroes. Instead, they became slaves. Branded as expendable weapons by the empire that summoned them, the group later known as the Strays survives through rebellion, escape, and bloodshed. Freedom comes at a cost—and now powerful nobles, mercenary orders, and kingdoms hunt the runaway summons who were never meant to live. Armed with stolen magic and hard-earned scars, the Strays travel a continent consumed by war, searching for one impossible prize: a way back to Earth. But in a world that profits from their existence, escaping may mean tearing down the very empires that control it.

This was the story of the Wannabe Webnovelist Team (aka WW) who slaved over writing for five years and did not receive a single reader, only to discover that the person responsible for the final edit and publishing in the Wannabe Webnovelist writing team never actually published anything. He had only uploaded everything to the drafts. Sit back and relax (or not) as you try to figure out which character has written which paragraph or chapter. Not to mention working out how many people are actually in this team - this may fluctuate. The WW team's rules in this novel are that once a chapter has been published, no one in the team can edit it. (NB: all the characters in this work are fictional and while any resemblance to real life people are not entirely coincidental - no insults are meant. This is a completely tongue in cheek, rubbish piece of nothing. Yes, you read that right. If you find this as nonsensical as the author(s), then 'high five!' You are on the right page.) Also, has this story really been discontinued? Wait and see... because if it really has been discontinued, we hope the readers enjoy being left hanging on the cliff edge - or just hanging, cos there's nothing wrong with just hanging about. Addit Oct 2023: WW is on a long break. Who knows if they'll ever get back together or come back (in fact, I doubt they will ever return - I think they've given up). Therefore, you will receive random short stories instead. This is now truly discontinuous nonsense. Enjoy. If you don't like one story, you can now switch to a different one via the contents page. Yay.

Some call it the “Age of the Supernatural.” In the ten years following the advent of this era, various superhumans emerged like mushrooms after the rain. Based on the different levels of power these individuals displayed, the nations of the world classified superhumans into five tiers. However, after being injured, Li Dong’s qi sense weakened drastically, making it difficult for him to use martial arts. Although his physical abilities still far surpass those of ordinary people, he has regressed to the “1st level.” Li Dong retires and returns to his hometown, only to find his fiancée with another man… #NTR #Netorare

Melissa Rory, currently a senior inspector in Night City's MaxTac (Psychotic Crimes Division), with a criminal record that includes: first-degree murder, hostage-taking, attempted murder, severe bodily harm, possession of military-grade drugs, assaulting/murdering/kidnapping/beating up corporate representatives, assaulting/beating up NCPD officers, grand theft, assaulting public officials, illegal trespassing into corporate zones, corporate defamation… Roqi stared tearfully at the top-secret files she dug out from the NCPD database. “This is the woman who's been chasing you all this time?” V pinched his forehead. “Amigo, your love life is... really something else,” said Jackie, clearly terrified. This insane woman—more dangerous than a whole squad of cyberpsychos in Night City—wants to skip work and come over to my place. Would committing seppuku give me a more peaceful death? Meanwhile, Arasaka is trying to use relic tech to uncover the secret to immortality, Militech is covertly excavating ruins in the Gulf of Mexico, and Kang Tao suddenly launches a revolutionary smart security robot to the market. Everything is beginning to spiral away from the original timeline of Cyberpunk 2077. Standing on the edge of this new era, where will Roqi, V, and Jackie go from here?

"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?”
