tragedy

A student with selective memory loss was trapped inside a glass capsule floating in outer space. She discovered that there were 23 other students in the same situation. As she recalls how that happened, a hologram named Author appeared. It announced that they were the 24 chosen players to participate in a survival game with 3 levels, different stages, and distinctive game categories. They must play life-threatening games while gaining their memories with the goal to be the Triumphant and claim the Tri-Prize–the Wealth, Health, and Stealth. What seemed to be a typical survival game hides a truth far more than just surviving.

She's untouchable, until she wasn't. She didn't want a second chance She rued it. She'd failed once, and that should be it. Her failure was fate... until it won't be. She hated him . Their love was cursed. Maybe in another it would bloom, but... a rainstorm is up ahead! cries the weatherman She has to choose, while he's refusing to let go. "You must be insane!" she gasped, stepping back as she furrowed her eyebrows. "You're a fool; that's what you are!" she accused, feeling ridiculously trapped between him and the marble pillar. He chuckled, his long earring glinting against the beam of the rising sun . "I think I am," he mused, but leaned in closer. "A normal person can't love you, darling." The villainess was face to face with the anti-villain

(Currently being revised so the story may be incoherent) "Knowledge, There you are! We need to do this quickly before the other gods notice." Valor says as he motions for her to approach. "I'm surprised you agreed to help with this." Gluttony adds with a cruel smile. "I never would have thought the God of Knowledge would be the one to give us aid." Knowledge mearly nods at his words. "Now, this is it! That crazy bat from the far continent has made some crazy monsters before but this one is the cream of the crop. Fully capable of self-evolution and self-replication. It can breed a whole army of different monsters by gathering the essence of other lifeforms!" Valor says as he points to a large egg on the ground. She nods again. "You know, I thought you'd be as excited as I am with this? Endless war and power; we'll have full control of the system once this thing begins its rampage." Knowledge raises her hands in the air and shakes them unenthusiastically. "As sarcastic as ever I see. Well, whatever. Place your hand hand here and help us with the seal." She does as she is told and a huge beam of light descends upon the egg; but her attention is elsewhere. Using the ceremony as a distraction, Knowledge brings lost souls from other worlds and implants them in unsuspecting inhabitants. She can see it. Tiny seeds of change have been sewn.

Jin Yeong was just another office worker—forgettable, unremarkable, and stuck in a life that never went anywhere. He wasn’t strong. He wasn’t talented. In a world of ambition, he was just… there.

But soon he and the world will learn a simple truth: It’s not about what you wield. It’s about how you wield it.

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

Before the black robes. Before the dungeon classroom. Before the name Severus Snape became something whispered with fear, bitterness, and misunderstanding, there was only a boy on Spinner’s End trying to survive the day. Becoming Severus Snape is a long-form Harry Potter fan novel that follows Severus from childhood to the moment he becomes the man the wizarding world thinks it knows. Beginning years before Hogwarts, in a house where love exists but cannot protect anyone, this story traces the slow formation of a brilliant, wounded boy shaped by poverty, shame, silence, and the dangerous comfort of finally belonging somewhere. This is not a story about a villain. It is a story about how someone becomes one. Dark, intimate, and psychologically grounded, this is Severus Snape’s full origin story: the childhood, the friendship with Lily Evans, the years at Hogwarts, the erosion, the choices, and the tragedy of every road not taken.

Power built the Murad empire. Blood secured it. Betrayal nearly destroyed it. Across India, New York, and beyond, Sohan Kadeon Murad reigns as one of the most feared men in the underworld. CEO of eight global empires and supreme leader of the Obsidian Triad, he rules with calculated brutality. His enemies vanish. His name commands silence. Yet even the darkest king had a weakness. His wife, Riyana. And their only daughter— Lilith Mahira Baneva. Born as the final heir. The true owner of everything. When greed consumes Sohan’s own cousins, a carefully orchestrated attack shatters the Murad family. A truck collision meant to eliminate Riyana and six-year-old Lilith leaves Riyana missing and presumed dead. Lilith survives—but her mind does not. Sohan unleashes hell on those responsible, wiping out bloodlines in a storm of vengeance before being imprisoned for ten years. His final command to his eight sons: No war among yourselves. Protect your sister. Keep her away from the darkness. While the brothers rise into powerful men—ruthless, disciplined, and loyal—Lilith grows up in a mental asylum, her brilliant mind trapped in the innocence of a child. Unknown to her brothers, someone close ensures she never heals, poisoning her recovery with damaging medication to keep her fragile… and unfit to rule. At sixteen, she returns home. Beautiful. Quiet. Mischievous. Broken. The empire legally belongs to her—but the world sees only a shattered girl holding pieces of herself together. Then comes the man powerful enough to rival the Murads. The feared leader of The Dominion Apex—half Russian, half American, Indian by blood. A king among kings. Cold. Strategic. Merciless. During a high-stakes alliance meeting, a single moment changes everything. He sees Lilith Mahira Baneva. And instead of weakness, he sees something no one else dares to look for. He takes her. What begins as possession slowly shifts into something far more dangerous—an obsession neither of them expected. In her silence, he finds calm. In his darkness, she finds protection. But beneath the fragile surface of the shattered heiress lies something waiting. Healing. Memory. Power. Will Lilith Mahira Baneva rise to reclaim the empire written in her blood? Will the ruthless king fall for the girl the world underestimated? Or will secrets, betrayal, and war tear apart what remains of the Murad legacy? In a world ruled by monsters, the most dangerous throne belongs to a broken queen.

Jani is the reluctant avatar of hunting, restricted by an inhuman, blithely cruel concept called Hunt, which makes him track down and kill fellow superpowered "avatars" on a recurring deadline. Refuse, and he dies instead. Every hunt costs him a piece of himself, be it his morals, his relationships or even his grip on reality's frayed edges. The story follows Jani through one devastating hunt after another, as the people he cares for are drawn into the crossfire. Some are targets, some are collateral, some are simply worn down by his compromises and empty promises. Each battle closes a door only for Hunt to open another, more painful one, testing how much of himself Jani is willing to lose in exchange for survival. Everyone else in Jani's life may come and go. Hunt never will.

Before he could finally die, his survival instincts kicked in, and when he next awoke, he found himself in another world. There, once divine, he finds himself mortal amongst humans in a Ruined Realm where Enlightenment is seen as natural and creatures roam freely, one of many being Erols. Yet beyond its strange inhabitants and unnatural phenomena lie mysterious connections to divinity. Armed with knowledge from a different world, Oren struggles to understand what remains familiar. His growing desire for understanding only makes his life increasingly perilous.

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

In a world governed by Kizo—an energy that determines one’s status, wealth, and future—Yuki Kinatarou is a "Zero." Ranked as a mere Acolyte, the lowest of the Gamma Ranks, he is viewed as nothing more than a glitch in the system of the elite Kyorin High. But Yuki has a secret.

With a sarcastic AI named Kira in his bag and the school’s "Paragon Queen," Seri Kyorin, watching his every move with a mysterious smile, Yuki begins his ascent.

But as the shadows of his true lineage—the Kinatarou name—begin to resurface, the world will realize that the era of peace of is ending. The Sengoku Era has begun. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/932173/fictions

Win the battle. Ascend to godhood. Die, and be erased from existence. Every hundred years, 16 warriors from different worlds are summoned to fight in the Crucible—a divine deathmatch where the last survivor is said to ascend to godhood. Eren Vale is one of them. With no memory of how he got here, he only knows one thing: survive at any cost. But as the battles unfold, Eren starts to remember pieces of a past he never lived. Whispers of lost cycles. A rivalry he doesn’t remember. And a truth too horrifying to accept: The winner doesn’t become a god—they become a vessel. A shell for the dying deities who orchestrated the game. Now, Eren must do the impossible—not just survive, but break the cycle before it claims him once again.

In the majestic Kingdom of Ryūgū, a land blessed by the elements themselves, every child was born with the promise of power. From the moment they were toddlers, the people of Ryūgū awakened a mysterious gift known as Elemental Art—the ability to command fire, summon storms, shape earth, or bend water to their will. These powers were the kingdom’s pride. They were the reason Ryūgū had survived the Great Demon War a thousand years ago, when the world nearly fell to darkness. Legends spoke of mighty Elementalists and the legendary Crowned Dragons who fought against the Demon King and his generals to save the realm. But among the children of this powerful kingdom… there was one boy who had nothing. His name was Ryūsei. While the other children awakened their Elemental Arts before they could even read or write, Ryūsei remained powerless. Days turned into years, and still nothing appeared. No spark of flame, no whisper of wind, not even the smallest ripple of energy. The whispers began quietly at first. "Maybe he's just a late bloomer." But as time passed, the whispers turned colder. "Maybe… he was never meant to awaken anything." Some even wondered if he had been forgotten by the elements themselves. Yet Ryūsei refused to give up. Even without power, he trained harder than anyone else. While others relied on their abilities, he sharpened his body and mind, determined to prove that he still belonged in the kingdom he loved. But fate had something far greater waiting for him. One day, when Ryūsei finally awakened his Elemental Art… it did not happen the way anyone expected. The moment his power emerged, the air itself trembled. Ancient energy—something far older than the kingdom, older even than the war a thousand years ago—burst forth from within him. What appeared was not an ordinary Elemental Art. It was something that had not been seen since the days of legends. A power tied to the forgotten past… to the war against the demons… and perhaps even to the fate of the entire world. And from that moment on, Ryūsei’s life—and the destiny of the Kingdom of Ryūgū—would never be the same again.
