tragedy

After dying young, Luca Valenti wakes up in a world ruled by women. A world where handsome men are cherished, fought over, and treated like prizes. At first, Luca thinks he got lucky. All he wants is a quiet life, a stable future, and maybe the chance to become a gentle househusband for his fiancée. Then everything starts going wrong. His beautiful older neighbor never seems to leave her apartment, yet somehow knows exactly where he goes and who he talks to. One day, she drops her warm smile and asks him a question that makes his blood run cold: Why did you reject me? A former school beauty who disappeared after confessing to him suddenly returns. This time, she is not here to ask. She is here to wait for his relationship to fall apart. Then a wealthy heiress corners him, leans close, and softly tells him that the only repayment she wants is him. One obsessive woman after another closes in, each more dangerous than the last. Luca thinks his biggest problem is surviving a world full of yanderes. Until he realizes the cruel truth. The most terrifying one of all has been by his side the entire time. His girlfriend.

'Path of Hemomancy' is a cruel and unforgiving story about the survival of the weak and their path to strength. When the weak and injured Lukas finds himself in The City Under the White Sky, he must immediately fight. He must overcome complications about his medical state after a year-long battle with cancer, learn to wield magic, and escape the ruins of dark marble teeming with abominations. What is happening? Where is he? What caused the once prosperous city to become ruins without any signs of civilization? How to get home, and is there even any home to return to now? Those are all the question he must now answer to survive.

Posted on Royal Road under the same name: In a world split between two kingdoms and haunted by demons born from humanity's own failures, sixteen year old Akio Sekishiro wants one thing; to change it. Not for glory. Not for recognition. Just because if no one tries, the world stays broken. So he and his closest friend Kai join the cadets, Aurelia's front line against demons and the rebel forces of Verthasis. It should be the beginning of something good. It isn't that simple. Because Akio's goodness has always been performed rather than felt, his mercy mistaken for instability, his idealism slowly revealed as something built on a foundation he refuses to examine. And as the missions grow harder and the world refuses to cooperate with his beliefs, the gap between the hero he performs and the person he actually is begins to crack open. A Living Lie follows Akio's psychological unraveling and reconstruction: through guilt, self-deception, and the slow realization that the lie he's been living might be the only thing keeping him standing. Alongside him, Kai fights his own quieter battle. And somewhere in the wreckage of everything they cause and everything they lose, both of them are forced to answer the same question. Do you need to deserve life to keep living it?

Han Jae-Min Del Rosario died in the cold. Starved. Betrayed. Devoured by the very people he once trusted. In a world where humanity collapsed into chaos, kindness was a weakness-and he paid the price for it. But fate gave him something impossible. A second chance. He awakens 30 days before the apocalypse. This time, he knows what's coming: The freezing world. The rise of enhanced humans. The fall of civilization. And the moment the people closest to him chose survival... over him. But Jae-Min is no longer the same man. Cold. Calculated. Unforgiving. Armed with knowledge of the future, a growing spatial power, and unmatched precision as a sniper who never misses, he begins to prepare-not just to survive... But to dominate. As factions rise, monsters emerge, and the world descends into war, Jae-Min moves from the shadows-one step ahead, one bullet at a time. This time, he won't be the one abandoned. This time... he chooses who lives.

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

He had thought he had finally reached peace. But when faced with a disaster he could not comprehend, Oren realized it was not peace waiting for him, but death. In desperation, he pulled on his anchor, escaping certain death. The anchor did not return him "home," nor did it grant him safety. Instead, it dragged him downward and cast him into a cursed world. He fell from the clouds and crashed into a lone house on the distant outskirts of a great city. He survived but at a cost. Cursed by the very world he had trespassed upon, Oren awakened there as something he had never been before. Stripped of what he once was, he was forced to walk the world and flourish as something painfully fragile, slowly reclaiming what had been taken from him.

Sammael was born into a world where gods are created through evil and cannibalism, blessing their subjects and soldiers for war and battle. An abomination of two hated races, both persecuted for their affinity to the fallen angel Lucifer. Somehow, that freak of nature found a place he calls home, where he is accepted. But to keep that home, to let the ones he loves live peacefully, he must kill every god humanity has both worshiped and feared.

I’ve discovered that if you cry at the right time people stop asking difficult questions. To the Foundation, I am Subject #402: a grieving girl with a ‘stable’ strength ability. To my classmates, I’m a clumsy klutz named Elara Ward. I’ve given myself a 90-day deadline to burn it all down The first month is for building a reputation as the girl who couldn't hurt a fly. The second is for mapping every exit and every weakness in the Foundation’s walls. The third is for the only thing that matters. Revenge. Everyone has weaknesses. I have weaknesses. No one must know. Not them, not her, not him and certainly not you.

Philadelphia 2043 is a graveyard of "what-ifs," and Rowan is the only one who remembers them all.

Now, he must use his meta-knowledge of the Kalavirus to manipulate Dr. Jones and the Witness before his borrowed lungs finally give out.

[UPDATE EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY] Akira Kurozawa, 17 years old, second-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High, possesses a cursed technique as rare as it is cursed: Spiritual Absorption. Unlike sorcerers who exorcise curses, Akira devours them, imprisoning them within his soul. Each absorbed curse increases his power... but inexorably corrupts his humanity. While his classmates—Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki—fight darkness from the outside, Akira battles the darkness growing within him. Black veins spread. Voices whisper. The line between sorcerer and monster blurs. Gojo Satoru watches, fascinated and wary. Sukuna takes interest. And Akira must answer a terrifying question: how far can one sacrifice oneself before losing what's worth saving?

She was their greatest warrior. They threw her away like she was nothing. Sage Blackwood spent six years bleeding for the Crimson Howl Pack. She trained their fighters. Defended their borders. Buried their dead. And when she uncovered a corruption that went all the way to the Alpha's throne, they repaid her loyalty with silver chains and a death sentence. She escaped with broken ribs, silver-burned wrists, and a wolf so poisoned it could barely breathe. They left her in the Deadlands to die. She didn't die. Found by a mysterious Alpha named Rhett - a wolf with no pack and a past he refuses to speak about - Sage begins to heal. But Rhett isn't the only Alpha drawn to her. Three others emerge from the shadows, each one powerful, each one dangerous, and each one triggering a mate bond that should be impossible. Rhett. The protector with gentle hands and a blood debt that could destroy them all. Kieran. The exiled prince whose brilliant mind sees her as a political weapon - until his wolf decides she's something far more. Zion. The feral Alpha who has never submitted to anyone - until he laid at her feet and bared his throat. Dorian. The shadow operative who knows her secrets better than she does. Because he's been watching her for years. Four Alphas. Four bonds. One ancient prophecy that says a wolf like Sage - a Quintessence - hasn't walked the earth in five hundred years. She can bond with all of them. She can forge a pack powerful enough to shake the foundations of the werewolf world. But Crimson Howl wants her dead. Kieran's ruthless mother wants her controlled. And a darkness older than the packs themselves is waking up - drawn by the scent of a power that was never supposed to exist again. Sage didn't survive the chains and the silver and the fall to be someone's weapon. She survived to be a queen. She just has to live long enough to claim her crown.

A mage from distant lands. Hated by the world, she carries its secrets to the lands of the immortal, the demonic and the divine, while being harassed by a certain Dark Lord. --- Author's note: I got bored so, I made this. My grammar isn't the best, plus I'm starting to suspect both my breaking keyboard and failing autocorrect is scheming against me, so sorry about that. I made this while drawing inspiration from my half-baked knowledge of different stuff I've read as well as a story I wrote in secret back in high school (that I never showed anyone, or finished). I wanted to include as many different things as I possibly could when i started writing this stuff which is probably why it is such a mess (especially the names. I wanted to use names from different places in the world, but it got confusing.) I don't want to offend anyone or make any statements on anything in my writing. It is mostly just for self-amusement. That being said, if you like it then good for you. And if you don't, then why are you still here? Shoo! Go! Get out of here! Anyways, enjoy! Oh look! My note is longer than the synopsis! Lets make it longer! Oh look, a butterfly! Whee! Byeeeee!
