tragedy

Life is dark and meaningless. That's what it had taught me every single day I'd been cursed to live it. But now, finally, that would all end. My arm ached where the needle pierced the vein. Already, my fingers were numb, spots spinning in front of my eyes. Something clattered onto the pavement. The needle. It must have slipped out of my hand. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first sense of peace that I'd felt since...ever. But that was okay. It meant that there was no one to miss me, and no one I would miss. Well, perhaps there would be a few, but they could always find others to extract their cruel, sadistic pleasure from. My last breath was rough and shallow, the last beat of my heart pitifully fail. I sank to the alley floor, eyes closing, welcoming the blessed nothingness of the end. Only...death was supposed to be dark, wasn't it? And since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods?

Reincarnation and transmigration—being reborn in another world was something his younger self would have gleefully accepted—the him who sought an escape from his mundane, colourless life. But when those fantasies become his unwilling reality, he is forced to confront a world that he would have preferred to know only through a screen. Now he must forge his own path in an unforgiving world where unchecked monsters can level cities and survival demands more from him than strength alone. He must also remain wary of the monsters within those walls wearing human skin. Men and women alike who sheath their claws in silk, speaking with honeyed words and courteous smiles as their fangs remain hidden behind embroidered fans. ***** NOTE: temper your expectations as this is my first work, and hopefully it isn't my last, lol. It's my more realistic and mature take on something you've probably seen over a hundred times, but don't expect a copy and paste of some bs power fantasy/ or self-insert, incel who goes after anyone wearing a skirt and thinks their beneath him. Just a guy whose forced to adapt to his unfortunate circumstance to survive and hopefully make it out alive. —On WN and RR

By MoonboundInk In the year 3934, Earth stands on the edge of extinction. Centuries of human progress have solved every mystery—every disease cured, every question answered—yet peace has never been more distant. From the shadows of the Moon, an ancient extraterrestrial species awakens, claiming Earth as their birthplace and humanity as the infection that must be erased. Amid the wreckage of collapsing cities and burning skies, Danial, a lone survivor, runs from both death and destiny. Hunted by alien forces that bend the very laws of nature, he discovers a truth buried deep beneath humanity’s triumphs — one that ties his existence to the Moonborn invaders themselves. Now, in a world consumed by chaos, Danial must choose between survival and sacrifice, between the remnants of humanity and the origins of the species that doomed it. Because the war for Earth isn’t about domination anymore — it’s about who deserves to live.

After surviving the deadliest school massacre of the century, a young man wakes up with no memory of who he is. No past, no name, no familiar faces - only a blank slate and a body marked by scars he can't remember receiving. Trying to move forward, he leaves behind a pain he doesn't fully understand. But the farther he runs, the more fate pulls him back. Encounters with people who seem to know him begin to reveal fragments of a story he never knew was buried - or perhaps one he wished to forget. Between what was lost and what still lurks in the shadows, one question haunts him like a constant whisper: what did I leave behind?

One Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation The so-called "Twin Electro Archons" are nothing more than a tired tale spun by a dying Shogun. The so-called "Free-Spirited Bard" is merely the wind taking the form of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place. The so-called "Immortal Zombie Qiqi" is simply an old man's desperate plea on the verge of death—one that a god happened to hear. Li Mo had been reincarnated a hundred times into the world of Genshin Impact. One more lifetime—one final mission—and he would be granted ten wishes. In his hundredth life, he became a storyteller in Liyue. "On that day, the Thunder Demon split his own heart in two, saving his dying sisters." "On that day, the wind took the shape of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place." "On that day, an old man, facing the dying herb-gathering girl, forcibly wielded the power of his own wish, granting Qiqi a glimmer of hope." The emotion ran deep, and the entire audience erupted in applause. The Raiden Shogun, Shenhe, Qiqi… even the Tsaritsa herself was moved to tears. Hu Tao's eyes glistened as she asked, "Storyteller… is that boy really dead?" --- Raw: 原神：璃月港说书，胡桃泪目 Author: 万字更新

I curate exhibitions. I study beauty. I keep my hands clean. New York is too loud, and the men who run it are louder. Some of them have been going quiet lately, one at a time, without a mark on them, without a struggle, without a single drop of blood on the carpet. The police call me the Silent Monster. I prefer Belladonna. A detective is looking for a ghost. My patron thinks I've become noise. And somewhere between the two, I made the only mistake I have ever made: I let myself feel something. Some things fade naturally. Others are helped.

In a world where power determines your worth, being ordinary is a death sentence. Seventeen-year-old Michael Ozor is tired of everything. Tired of a life that feels like an endless cycle of disappointment. Tired of friendships that bring more chaos than comfort. Tired of love that leaves him more broken than before. And most of all, tired of being the fool who keeps hoping things will get better. With two girls pulling his heart in opposite directions, a past he cannot escape, and a future he has little faith in, Michael is ready to stop caring. No more chasing love. No more pointless expectations. If people want to bring chaos into his life, then perhaps it is time he gave them something to fear. Then comes Emox. A school promising to awaken the supernatural abilities hidden within its students, Emox offers Michael a chance to become something more. But beneath its promises lies a world far crueler than he could ever imagine, where power comes at a price, trust can be fatal, and survival demands more than strength. When an unexpected message from a girl threatens to unravel the fragile world he has built around himself, Michael is forced to confront the one thing he has spent his life running from: himself. But what if the darkness inside him is not something to overcome? What if it is the only thing keeping him alive? In a world where power defines humanity, how much of yours can you lose before you become something else entirely? Welcome to The Hollow Veil, where love can become a weakness, memories can become weapons, and the line between monster and human is thinner than anyone dares to believe. Not everyone gets to be a hero.

"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?”

Doğduğu an evren titredi. Kara ve Aya onu istemedi. Ama kader onu seçti. Kaito’nun hikâyesi, iki mutlak gücün arasında başlar.

Arata Kurogane was nothing more than a faceless side character—at least, in this new world. Born into a prestigious clan famed for their mastery of Circuits, the natural meridians that grant humans power over fire, lightning, illusions, and even time itself, Arata’s body was branded talentless and left behind in the shadows of his brilliant siblings. But fate had other plans. When his soul from another world awakens within this forgotten vessel, Arata discovers two terrifying truths: 1. His left eye circuit, when awakened, can paralyze, torment, and even extinguish life itself. 2. His soul circuit allows him to manifest anything he imagines—so long as it makes sense. To the world, he remains a background figure. To himself, he knows the truth: he is limitless. While heroes clash for fame and villains rise to destroy kingdoms, Arata has no interest in playing their game. He will walk the path of a “shadow,” quietly building his strength, rewriting the rules of reality itself, and crushing those foolish enough to stand in his way. Because no one—not his clan, not the empire, not even the gods—will realize… The background character is the strongest of them all.

After a fatal accident, a man wakes up in the body of Paul Franco, a coma patient in 1970s Connecticut. He quickly realizes he has transmigrated into the terrifying world of The Conjuring. He isn't alone, though; he is bonded to the Warren Legacy Protocol, a metaphysical system designed to hunt the demonic. Knowing the grisly fates awaiting the families the Warrens help, Paul must use his system to level up his spiritual defenses. The System: The Warren Legacy Protocol 1. Case Management & Foreknowledge What it does: The system generates "Case Files" for supernatural events. Since the MC knows the movies, the system rewards him for using that knowledge to solve hauntings faster, providing XP and "Faith Points" (FP) for every soul saved. 2. The Skill Trees (Psychic Development) What it does: Instead of static powers, the MC invests points into trees like Abjuration (creating physical shields against ghosts) and Discernment (seeing through demonic illusions). This allows him to "tank" supernatural attacks that would kill a normal human. 3. The Faith Shop (Sanctified Arsenal) What it does: A mental marketplace where the MC spends Faith Points to buy legendary holy artifacts. He can summon anything from Blessed Salt and St. Benedict Medals to high-tier relics like Michael’s Scale, which can physically wound high-ranking demons.

A second fan fiction novel created by Sun Nation. More coming soon!

“If Heaven demands that I kneel, then let Heaven descend and make me.” Lican was born in flames, in a world where strength determined who lived and who died, and where weakness was nothing more than an invitation to be crushed. At thirteen, he knew nothing about cultivation, destiny, or the world beyond the place he had been imprisoned, yet when he finally escaped, he found himself thrown into a wilderness filled with beasts, hunters, bloodshed, and dangers far beyond anything he had ever known. With only his father's teachings, a strange jade hairpin, and a mysterious cultivation manual left behind for him, Lican begins to walk a path unlike that of ordinary cultivators. He has no dantian, no powerful clan behind him, and no master waiting to guide his steps. Instead, his body, soul, blood, and even the world around him become part of a path he must uncover for himself. But as Lican grows stronger and begins to understand the strange power he carries, he slowly discovers that his survival was never part of the fate written for him. He was supposed to die. His existence itself stands against a destiny that had already decided his ending, and the further he walks down this path, the more he begins to question who truly has the right to decide how his story should end. If Heaven has already chosen his fate, then Lican will have to choose whether to accept it—or fight the very heavens that wrote it.

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

Eternal Storm: Volume 1 – The Awakening Aryan Verma used to belong. A bright student with close friends, he had a future—until he failed his 11th-grade finals. Now, he walks the halls of Blue Rigid Academy as an outsider, a ghost among those who once knew him. His best friend, Rishi, no longer acknowledges him. Anaya, the girl he secretly admired, looks right through him. The whispers follow him everywhere. Then, one night, the sky fractures. A burning light tears across the heavens, crashing into the forest with an impact that shakes the ground. Something calls to Aryan from the wreckage—a black necklace, pulsing like a heartbeat. The moment his fingers brush against it, searing pain rips through his body. The world fades. And when he wakes, nothing is the same. The necklace refuses to come off. His body hums with energy, his emotions sending waves of unseen power into the air. Then, the first spark. The first storm. A suit of impossible design forms around him, flickering like a shadow in the wind. It feels familiar. Like it was waiting for him. But power never comes without a price. The dreams start soon after—whispers from something unseen. Warnings of a storm yet to come. And somewhere, far beyond the stars, something stirs. Watching. Waiting. Moving. The artifact has awakened. And so has its hunter. Now, the hunt begins. A force unlike anything Earth has ever seen is coming for him, relentless and unstoppable. There will be no warning. No escape. And when it arrives, Aryan will have only two choices—fight for his life or be erased from existence. He thought he had already lost everything. But the real nightmare is just beginning. The storm has begun.
