tragedy

I was trapped… Trapped in a place I had never truly belonged to before. Among friends. I thought I would finally enjoy my new life, but I never knew it would come with conditions. I found someone who truly loved me… but he was never meant to be mine. And the one who showed me love. I never knew if it was real or just another illusion. Bound by friendship, I slowly found myself standing in the same place I had been four years ago. Back when loneliness was all I knew. When I needed love the most, I never received it. And when love finally found me… My life had already given up. And just when everything finally started becoming okay… Fate whispered to me, “Now close your eyes.” The person I fell in love with… the person who fell in love with me… What we had was never just love. We were both broken in our own ways. Yet somehow, we understood each other better than anyone else ever could. And when I finally realized who I truly wanted in my life… Everything changed.

METRO GENESIS by Ada. The year is 3044. Humanity made it this far. Barely. AI got sorted eventually, redirected toward handling the tedious, the administrative, the soul-crushing weight of daily existence so humans could spend time doing things that actually required being human. A noble vision. Metro City found a way to make even that sinister. Metro City was never a good place to live. It was, however, always a spectacular place to disappear, into its rain-slicked streets, its corporate towers, its carefully maintained illusion that someone, somewhere, had things under control. Buried beneath that illusion was the Nemesis Protocol Unit. Black ops. Off the books. The agency that handled the problems polite society preferred to pretend didn't exist. The NPU didn't officially exist. It was also the only thing standing between Metro City and complete collapse. For nearly as long as the NPU existed, there was NexoPharma. Gleaming towers. Government contracts. The kind of respectability built on strategic donations and carefully placed allies. Ask anyone on the street what NexoPharma was really doing in those labs and they'd lower their voice and say the same thing: bioweapons. They weren't wrong. In 3034, rookie agent Adrian Cole was assigned to NexoPharma Tower. Routine investigation. Get in, gather evidence, get out. It was not routine. The tower caught fire. The kill teams mobilized. His senior partner went back for him when he didn't have to, pushed Adrian clear, and didn't make it out. Adrian crawled from that building on two broken ankles, alone, with the sound of screaming that stopped too soon ringing in his ears. He spent two weeks in hospital. He spent the next ten years trying to deserve it. By 3044, Adrian Cole is the Ace of NPU, the best field agent the Nemesis Protocol Unit has ever produced. Decorated. Relentless. Still haunted. The kind of man who walks into situations that break other agents and walks out with the truth still intact. Metro City is working on fixing that. Above him sits Elias, NPU's iron-spined higher up, a man who has survived long enough to know exactly which questions you ask out loud and which ones you take permanently to your grave. He gives Adrian enough information to complete the mission. Never quite enough to understand what the mission actually is. Then there is Garrick, pilot, transport specialist, and somehow the most aggressively normal human being in this entire story. We are enormously fond of him. We are also deeply concerned for him. There is also Marcus. That's all we're saying about Marcus. You'll understand why. And finally, Aveline. Ace of the Crime Division. Half Canadian, half Russian. The kind of dangerous that doesn't announce itself. She is a psychopath, this is not a plot twist, not a slow revelation, not a dramatic chapter reveal. Everyone who works with her knows it. Everyone who works against her really knows it. She is not looking for redemption. She was never soft. She looked at Metro City in all its corruption and decided the correct response was not to fix it, but to be better at it than everyone else in the room. Not sweet. But definitely a psycho. Metro City is rotting. The Nexo Incident has begun. The corporations are panicking quietly, violently, and with excellent legal representation. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, an agent running on borrowed time and a woman who never needed a reason are about to find out exactly how deep Metro City's rot goes. It goes very deep. Nobody is ready. Least of all you. Welcome to Metro Genesis. Try not to get attached.

In a world ruled by powerful sects and hidden wars, fate moves in ways no one can see. Han Liang walks in shadows, bound by duty and secrets.

In a world where loyalty is everything, some connections are more dangerous than open enemies. A slow-burn wuxia romance filled with sect intrigue, hidden dangers, and forbidden connection.

From a childhood marked by suffering, through the struggles of growing up, and finally achieving success in life, he had endured it all. One day, he decided it was time to rest—time to settle down, marry, have children, and train them to carry on his legacy. But fate had other plans. Reality was cruel. On his way to his wedding, his life was abruptly cut short. A sniper's bullet pierced his heart, killing him instantly in his car. Yet, in a twist of cosmic irony, his soul was extracted before it could pass on. In a half-conscious, half-unconscious state, his soul traveled millions of light years across the universe. He witnessed stars and galaxies, memories that weren’t his own, and a recurring nightmare that would haunt him for eternity. When he awoke, it felt as though he had emerged from an eternal slumber. To his shock, he was no longer in his old world. Instead, he found himself in the body of his ten-year-old self, having transmigrated to a completely different world—a world of darkness and despair. This new world was a place where sadness and bloodshed reigned supreme. The strong oppressed the weak, crushing them like insects. Here, money held no value without power. It was a brutal, unforgiving realm where survival was the only law. Zilon, as he now called himself, would have to cling to anything—anything at all—just to stay alive. But survival was only the beginning. Zilon, who had started from the very bottom, would have to claw his way to the top. He would face life and death, sweetness and sorrow, and ultimately, he would confront the true disaster of the universe: the Demon God. Yet, the demons were not his only concern. Otherworldly creatures known as Chaos Creatures emerged periodically through a rift called the Chaos Gate. These beings possessed the power to annihilate entire universes if left unchecked. Despite these overwhelming odds, Zilon’s ambition burned brighter than ever. He vowed to become the strongest being in the entire multiverse. He wanted his name to strike terror into the hearts and minds of all who heard it. Not dragons, vampires, werewolves, elves, beastkins, demons, giants, or titans—nothing would be worthy of being called his enemy. But would these be his only adversaries? Or would greater challenges lie ahead? ...... **NOTE 1:** If you’re wondering whether this book is a mistake, rest assured—it’s not. If you want to dive straight into the main story, start reading from Chapter 17 or 18 (subtitled *Zilon*). However, I highly recommend reading Chapters 1 to 16 first, as they provide crucial backstory and context. To clarify, Chapter 19 (which is Chapter 17 in the main storyline) is where the main narrative truly begins! **NOTE 2:** No matter what, do not—under any circumstances—compare the contents of this book to the real world. This is a work of pure fantasy. While some elements may coincidentally align with reality, they are entirely fictional and not intended to reflect real-world events or ideologies.

A concealed life beyond turns its pages, one after another, gathering a tale where faith and love and grace wins against the doubt and hatred and sin. --- The girl who once vowed to be his forever Now forbids him to ever appear.

Sex. Power. Respect. For Jade Kyndrake, nothing else has ever mattered. Crown prince of Kristalia and top student of the fifth year at Astralea Magic Academy, he also carries the legacy of the Divine Dragon’s power. Titles and honors that should be enough for anyone—but not for him, because his ambition goes far beyond that. For Jade, strength isn’t a dream or a milestone. It’s the only thing that matters, the only path worth following. He craves absolute power, without rivals and without compromise, and he will pursue it even if it means embracing the darkness that threatens not only Kristalia, but the entire world. Yet the moment he meets Rebecca Asheart, a brilliant first-year who shines with a light of her own, Jade discovers that even the convictions he built his life upon can begin to waver.

An ordinary guy, first love, a happy family — Ray Evans had everything one could dream of. He created the "Crimson Devils" to protect those he held dear. But the world is cruel to those who try to hold onto happiness for too long. 237 chapters. 56 of them — about how paradise is built. And 181 — about how it burns. "Tragedy and the Birth of the Devil" is not just a revenge story. It's about the price a person pays when they refuse to give up, even when giving up is the only reasonable option. Welcome to a world where love is poison, family is a cult, and death is far from the worst ending. My name is Dea Evans. This is the story of the person who meant everything to me—my brother, Ray. It all began long before I was born, when he met a girl named Lily. Ray wasn't your typical hero: overweight, sick, with a black eye and a broken destiny. Lily wasn't looking for a prince either—she was just trying to survive after her parents' death and save her family. But together, they found what they were searching for: love, support, and hope. However, the world is cruel. Especially to those who dare to be happy. This story is about how something new rises from the ashes of tragedy. About how wounded souls find each other. And about how family isn't always those who share your blood. Sometimes, it's those who are willing to die for you.

A talented individual who is respected by many and welcomed everywhere… Not at all! A bloodthirsty battle fanatic who knows no defeat! However, he is usually kind and gentle, as well as a great boss and a subordinate who does not make a fuss! That’s what people think of me, but in reality, I’m a sickly person who struggles to get by in everyday life, let alone in battles. Due to excessive stress, I vomit blood. If I’m shocked, I vomit blood. Even if I’m slightly startled, I vomit blood. For no reason at all, I vomit blood… No, it’s about time everyone realized that I’m weak, but for some reason, they continue to have a strange misunderstanding about me. So… I used to be strong—no, I still am, but for some reason my body was damaged and I can no longer use 100% of my skills? Is it because my body will be unable to withstand it? And the reason for it is… a spell? A curse? This is ridiculous! ___ This is an upload of a PDF I have. I don't know who the original translator is, but I'm pretty sure it's MTL. I will make small modifications to each chapter to correct some things that may be confusing.

As a journalist who had no idea who Homelander or the Seven even were, Joey was reborn as Superman and found himself living in the corrupt, rotten world of The Boys. Could anything be more dark than that? Only after Joey set out on a strange journey to resurrect his adoptive parents—traveling across the DC and Marvel multiverses—did he realize— There really was! --- This is a translation and not my work. The original author is 门扉之神克里斯. Please support the original author if you can! The link to the original book is: https://www.qidian.com/book/1041213140/ --- This is like my fourth translation work so I can guarantee quality. One or two chapters per day cuz this is a passion project and I have actual work.... And finally, a small advice as a fellow reader of this fanfic, I would advice start reading from chapter 30. Although the name is "Starting from The Boys", the original author kinda butchered that arc. It's... not great... The author probably realized that so he moved on to the next world pretty early. The writing gets significantly better starting from the next world, which is the Flashpoint world. There's a reason I straight up upload this book with 40+ chapters... But feel free to read it if you want, I'll leave it there anyways lol. I'm at chapter 90 as well so I'm also reading as I translate. Enjoy!

“If you hear the flute,” the villagers said, “turn away before it remembers your name.” Shen Qiyao didn’t. The melody that drifted through the bamboo was too familiar — like a dream he’d already lost. “Who are you?” he whispered to the shadows. The answer came as music.

It was a lie. And he knew Leith must have realized it. But the man did not respond to the lie, did not judge, did not ask any further questions. He just remained silent... and slowly bit his own index finger until a drop of blood appeared. Then, with a movement that was almost inaudible, he reached out his hand toward Liyn. "Drink... Liyn.” Liyn's heart felt like it was being pulled out of her chest. Her breath caught. She stared at Leith's finger in confusion, fear, and… trembling. But something inside her stirred. Slowly, she grasped Leith's hand, her hands so small in that gentle embrace, then hesitantly touched that finger to her lips. She sucked on the tip of the finger, tasting the salty, warm blood. As warm as someone who cares. Yurei Yurelin dreamed of becoming a scientist and exploring the skies above, not the magical battlefield.
