As a strange, unsettling feeling settles over the city like a held breath, a forgotten past begins to stir.

Alternative Title: Villain's Saviour, Game Over Again Lin Ji’an, a modern master chef, never expected to wake up inside a dog-blood BL cultivation novel. Worse, she transmigrated into the role of the "vicious cannon fodder", the crossdressing Third Young Master destined to humiliate the future Villain and die a miserable death by his hand. Her mission? Simple. Feed the starving slave boy and the future villain, Xie Wangchen, fix his broken body, and make sure his "Blackening Value" doesn't hit 100% and destroy the world. She beats up the arrogant Heir, face-slaps the evil Stepmother, and cooks her way into the Villain’s heart, purely to survive, of course! But as they head to the Celestial Sword Sect, Lin Ji’an realises something is wrong. She thought she was raising a cute, obedient little brother. She thought she was just a "straight bro" helping him out. She thought the main plot’s protagonists would chase the original MC. So why is the Villain looking at her with eyes darker than the abyss? Why is he threatening to cripple anyone who smiles at her? And why are the original male leads suddenly lining up to taste her cooking? Lin Ji’an: "I’m just here to cook and survive! I’m straight! And I’m a girl!" Xie Wangchen, who was sharpening his sword, looked up with a smirk tugging in the corner of his lips, "Luggage? No. You are my world. And I never let go of what is mine."

When he transmigrated into the brutal world of the Tianxuan Continent, he didn't come empty-handed.

He arrived in a dark age where humanity was frail, scattered, and hunted by ancient beasts. Taking command of the declining Nine Heavens Holy Land, Lin Xuan stepped forward not just as a survivor, but as an absolute ruler. He swept across the realms, restoring order to the chaos and forcing the myriad clans to recognize a new authority. For the monsters and demon lords who believed they ruled this world, a terrifying reality soon set in. They weren't the hunters anymore. The Final Boss had just spawned in the Novice Village.

This story is about a love built on a lie—and the countless hardships the protagonists must endure to challenge a fate that was written long before they had a choice. In a world where fate demands repetition, the characters must decide whether love is strong enough to rewrite what was never meant to change.

This story follows a manhwa-style format, meaning it contains frequent dialogue and short, scene-based narration. Readers who enjoy webtoons, fast pacing, and conversation-driven storytelling will feel at home here. If you prefer long descriptive prose, this story may not be for you.

Once, a king, driven by hatred, revenge, and madness, made a pact with the devil. Through this pact, he was reborn—formed from the devil's very essence, from mist, ash, and pain. He became a creature of darkness, immortal and blessed with superhuman powers. But everything comes at a price. For this power and immortality, the creature must feed on the flesh and blood of its victims. Piece by piece, it devours its victims alive as they scream in agony while it simultaneously drinks their blood. Otherwise, its own body would rot. With special victims who possess great potential, the creature creeps inside them like a parasite. It slowly feeds on them, acquiring their skills—be it intelligence, dexterity, or martial arts. This is a lengthy process, especially if the victim's will is strong and must first be broken. During this inner struggle, the creature must repeatedly leave its host to feed, but cannot stay too long. If the creature merely sucks the blood of its victims, they become its offspring, the "Children of the First Generation." In its original form, the Dark King cannot bear daylight, which is why it is called the Noctusborn—"Born of the Night." But in the body of a host, it can walk among humans undetected, even in bright sunlight. The price of its power is high: its offspring cannot feel true love and are not immortal. Therefore, the Noctusborn seeks a way to create artificial, immortal vessels—the Nocturnuli (Children of the Second Generation)—to bring its beloved wife back to life and be by her side forever. For its longing for true love is stronger than its hunger for flesh and blood. An OPTIONAL lore companion book is available on my WebNovel profile. Copyright 2025 JJWaka & Wayne Shao.

A recurring nightmare afflicted Khan's nights since the Second Impact. His dreams replayed the scenes of the crash of the Nak's spaceship, an alien race that the humans had defeated five hundred years ago. Khan's life had turned upside-down after the tragedy. His mother had died during the incident, and the Nak's toxic mana had infected him. His father had managed to save him, but they ended up losing their home and name in the process. The nightmares wouldn't let Khan forget about the Nak, so he decided to join the Global Army and learn to wield mana. He had to put an end to those dreams, even if that meant hunting down that alien race through the stars. ------------------------------------- Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EoCNovels Instagram: eocnovels Discord link: https://discord.gg/fNsPwXMP7P

I was just taking a quiet late-night walk when I found… a child sleeping inside a dumpster. One thing led to another, and suddenly I became the accidental father of a kid no older than ten. The next morning, I woke up from a vivid dream. A mysterious Victorian woman whispering about "calamity, dungeons, portals, another world… yeah, good luck bro." She said all of that in the most casually elegant Victorian tone imaginable. But the real nightmare started when a floating screen appeared in front of me, spouting nonsense about quests and objectives. The day I picked up a child in a dumpster was the day my ordinary life ended. And that was when our story truly began.

A horror game feared worldwide becomes **Lin Yu’s new reality**—but the real nightmare isn’t the monsters. It’s the truth that the game’s deadliest bosses are his neighbors. The Blood Clan Queen? A freeloading, pint-sized terror who raids his fridge like she owns the place. The hospital director who wipes entire squads? A cheerful matchmaking grandpa downstairs, handing out “romantic advice” like it’s a daily quest. The blood-soaked butcher? A shy, soft-spoken girl upstairs… who politely greets him while her weapon drips red. To everyone else, this world is a slaughterhouse of screams, curses, and impossible boss fights. To Lin Yu, it’s awkward hallway encounters, surprise dinner guests, and trying not to offend beings that can erase a player’s existence with one glance. But the deeper Lin Yu gets pulled into the game, the stranger things become— because while players are desperate to escape, the bosses aren’t trying to kill him… They’re watching him. Avoiding him. Even **fearing** him. And Lin Yu is about to learn the most terrifying rule of all: in this world, "he might be the only one who doesn’t know what he really is."

He was found as a one-year-old child in the deepest part of the Deadly Forest— a place where no human could survive. Raised by creatures feared by the world, the boy never felt hunger, pain, or emotion. Wherever he went, life slowly withered. Banished by the forest itself, he wandered the world for years until he reached a small town… and a mysterious egg that no human could touch without turning to ash. From that moment, fate began to move. War, sealed emotions, a girl born from a curse, and memories older than the world itself slowly awaken within him. He does not know who he truly is. He does not know why he exists. But one truth remains— If his emotions fully return, the world may not survive.

Trapped in a looping nightmare of betrayal and public executions, Noctis spends “lifetimes” reliving the same village tragedy—framed by the only friends he has, condemned by the people he tries to save, and reset by an uncaring world that refuses to let him die or change. When his mind finally fractures one cycle too far, a buried system—the Echoframe—awakens and offers him a different path: break the spiral or be broken by it forever.​ Noctis chooses defiance. He begins to rewrite the script of his punishment, turning each reset into data, each betrayal into leverage, until he stops being the designated victim and starts becoming the anomaly that the nightmare can no longer predict. His resistance leads him out of the cursed village into monster‑ridden caverns, where he sacrifices almost all of his core to hatch Astra, a living shadow-child, and forges a soul‑bond that slowly restores his stolen emotions and gives him someone to protect besides a world that fed him to the gallows.​ Guided and judged by the Echoframe, Noctis earns legendary rewards—Echo Sense, Bond Surge, and the mythic combat style Asterian Spiral—but each power forces him to confront what survival has turned him into. As he trains alongside Astra and the feral hunter Noua, Noctis must decide whether he will remain a weapon shaped by endless cycles of pain, or become the one who shatters the system itself—even if that means rewriting the fate of everyone who ever sacrificed him to stay alive.​

Aaron Smith encounters a weeping lady by the bridge and tries to help her, thinking she might be attempting suicide. Instead, she turns out to be a ghost that kills him with a heart attack. Now his soul has been transferred into a rat within a dungeon. Can this man survive the ordeal, or will he become mere nourishment for novice adventurers? [Note: I’m stepping away for a little while due to personal reasons. Chapters will still come, just not every day. Thank you all for supporting the story and for waiting.

WARNING NOTICE: The story is R18 , no one 17 or under should read this. Luca gazed at her, his eyes burning with desire, and Melissa felt a shiver run down her spine. "You're so beautiful," he whispered, his voice husky with need, with a sharp movement he take off his clothes, leaned closer to her lips. She smiled, her fingers tracing the lines of his face, her thumb brushing over his lips. "You're not so bad yourself," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper, that was a only full sentence she spoke. He chuckled, the sound low and rough, and his mouth claimed hers again, the kiss deepening, becoming more intense. His fingers slid between her legs, parting her, finding the wet heat of her, and she gasped, her body arching up to meet him. "Luca," she whispered, his name a prayer, a plea, a promise. He growled, his hips surging forward, his p*nis pressing against her entrance playful, she felt a rush of excitement, of anticipation. He was ready , he was going to take her, to claim her, to make her his, and she was ready to let him, to surrender to the desire that burned between them. His mouth traced a path of fire from her lips to her throat, to the swell of her breast. His hands learned her, worshiped her, drawing gasps and sighs that were her only language, every touch was a confession, every kiss a vow. When he finally entered her, it was with a slow, devastating fullness that made her cry out, her eyes flying open to find his gaze locked on hers, she never imagined the pain, in a sure motion he thrust into her slowly, let her accommodate the size of his C*ck, she screamed with a feeling of unfamiliar pain ,building up something inside of her. Even though her eyes , flickered tears ,her moans was evident of what she's starting to feel as she arched off the bed. The shock had melted into something raw and open, a vulnerability she knew he showed no one else. "Look at me," he commanded, his voice rough with emotion. "*Solo a me.*" Only at me. And she did, his eyes staring hers, as their bodies began to move in a rhythm as old as time, their gazes held. It was more intimate than the joining of their bodies. It was a soul-deep recognition.
