GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions be known. Thank you.

---- Synopsis: Rea Jones has always felt like a ghost in crowded rooms. Suffering from enclophobia—the fear of crowds—she dreads her first day at a new school, where the hallways are a maze of unfamiliar faces and suffocating noise. She’s convinced she’ll be invisible, just as she’s always been. But then she meets Milo Carter, the easygoing artist who sees past her silence, and Elena Vasquez, the fierce and loyal girl who refuses to let Rea hide forever. Slowly, they draw her out of her shell, showing her that friendships aren’t as terrifying as she thought. Just when Rea starts to believe she belongs, she makes the one mistake she swore she never would—falling for Aster Westwood, the school’s golden boy with a rebellious streak and a secret of his own. He’s everything she should avoid, tangled in drama she wants no part of, but something about him makes her feel alive in a way she never has before. As Rea learns to navigate love, fear, and the overwhelming world around her, she must face the question she’s been running from all her life—will she let fear define her, or will she finally step out of the shadows?

In a world where power is marked by glowing runes and monsters bleed through the fabric of reality, **Ryu** is nothing—an orphan with no name, no status, and no hope. Beaten down by nobles who wield their divine-given strength like a whip, he survives on scraps and stubborn defiance. But when a black rift—an anomaly unlike any ever recorded—appears in the dead of night, Ryu faces a choice: die a beggar, or risk everything by stepping into the unknown. Inside, he finds a nightmare. Kolasis, a legendary predator, hunts him through a twisted forest. The rules here are simple: kill or be killed. To survive, Ryu must forge himself into something sharper than the claws of monsters and crueler than the nobles who cast him aside. Yet the rift has its own secrets. The same power that could make him a legend might also break him—if the monsters don’t tear him apart first.

Gantsuke, a battle-hardened ex-mercenary, didn’t ask for a second chance. He came to planet Ether hoping for peace. What he got instead… was hell. Mutated zombies, drug cartels, underground human trafficking, and mysterious beings from beyond the stars—every faction wants control, and every corner of the city hides a secret that could kill him. He’s not a hero. He doesn’t want to be. But when survival depends on the bullet in your gun, hesitation equals death. Surrounded by death, haunted by war, and entangled with women whose fates are as twisted as his past, Gantsuke must fight to protect the last sparks of humanity—starting with himself. In this war-torn world, the dead walk, trust is poison, and desire may be the only thing keeping a man alive.

Kaal wasn’t given a second chance. He stole it. Dragged from the ruins of his past and thrown into a world that does not forgive weakness, Kaal awakens with nothing but the weight of a broken life pressing against his spine. The ground is painted with the blood of dreamers. The skies weep for no one. And here, mercy is not a virtue — it’s a death sentence. He doesn’t seek to be a hero. He doesn’t pretend to be a savior. He moves because standing still means vanishing. He fights because surrender is already a grave. He survives because survival itself is an act of rebellion. Each wound carved into his skin tells a story the world tried to silence. Each step forward is a blade driven into the heart of fate. They tried to erase him. They should have buried him deeper.

Welcome to A UNIVERSE WITHOUT LAW This isn't your typical heroes vs villains tale, the characters you meet in each chapter aren't flawless saviors or knights in shining armor. They're dreamers and survivors, fighters in a universe where the line between Justice an chaos blur. The plasma nexus a rebellion group that seeks to overthrow the oppressive regime that maintains order but at the cost of personal freedom. But is a universe without law truly free or is it another path to destruction. I wanted to create a story that just doesn't entertain but makes you question your own values. Would you fight for freedom even if it meant embracing chaos or would you choose stability even under the hand of tyranny. At its heart this story is about identity and choices. Iver Tanaka the Masked Drifter doesn't have all the answers and neither do we. But through his journey we'll find what it means to survive, to trust and to find purpose in a world that often feels like it's falling apart. Thank you for joining me on this story. Whether you root for judgment order or plasma nexus I hope this story challenges your perspective and sparks your imagination. Freedom isn't always what it seem and neither are the people fighting for it. Let's dive into chaos. T.A.N

Nova scrambled backwards, panting hard, her short locks clinging to her damp forehead as she watched this predator stalk towards her. The vibrant and lively forest hushed, almost holding its breath to watch the scene unfold. Great, she had an audience for what would surely be a gruesome death. Death looked... a little... rugged and in nothing but a loin cloth, defined by slabs of muscle, a trail of hair leading down to such a small piece of cloth to hide a large- A spine-chilling growl snapped her gaze back up to meet his golden-red eyes, fiery, and intense, glaring at Nova as he slammed his hands either side of her head. Pieces of bark crumbled down from the impact. "I told you not to run..." He threatened, his eyes piercing hers, his voice more guttural than she'd heard from any male. His eyes clenched shut as his body trembled. "My instinct is to always stalk, always chase... until I get what I want.." Their faces were inches apart. She could feel his hot breath fanning her face. The forest was humid and hot, and his body was so close to hers that it was almost unbearable. The gruff voice, those words and the intensity of those eyes that reminded her of sunsets caused goosebumps to flourish across her arms. "What do you want?" Nova swallowed, not recognising her voice. She was so out of her depth. His chest rumbled, and more bark crumbled down from behind her head. "You..." Her breath hitched. "To. Do. As. You're. Told." - Paradise was what Nova Winslow was promised when her boyfriend whisked her away to Isla De Tayun, the perfect getaway for their busy lives. It was untouched, pristine, a hidden gem. But it had remained that way for a reason. The island doesn’t want visitors. And neither do the natives. What should have been a romantic retreat, drinking from coconuts and lounging on white-sandy beaches together, turns into a holiday from hell. Mid-argument with her soon-to-be ex, Nova stumbles into a lake. When she resurfaces, her boyfriend, the path she came from, and the resort have vanished. Alone, stranded, and with little survival skills, Nova has only a wet phone with no signal, a pair of heels, and an irrational fear of bats—which are everywhere. She is out of her depth when she falls into a mystical world of beasts. Hunted by tribesmen, stalked by beasts that shouldn't exist, and hearing animals speak, she has no choice but to trust the wild beast the forest itself fears—Yoa, a wanted man. Together, they flee the tribes pursuing them all while battling her growing attraction to Yoa. Can she survive the wild and make it back to her civilised life? Or will she lose herself to the untamed world—and to the man who belongs to it? #Beast #Ssssteamy #Adventure #Mythical #R18 -- THERE WILL BE MATURE CONTENT!! -- If you are enjoying the story, please vote with a power stone, leave comments and review! -- Cover Image: In the middle of getting one commissioned.

John just wanted a quiet botanist life. Maybe grow a few “slightly suspicious” plants, feed his sentient cotton-plant pet named Barry, and definitely not return that research journal he “accidentally” stole from a sketchy lab. Then the Men in Black showed up. Then came the alien spaceship with neon signs that screamed: “Congratulations, Earth! You’ve been selected for a once-in-a-lifetime—possibly never again—chance to join the Multiverse Game!” Before he could say “I’m not qualified,” John found himself floating in space with a backpack full of snacks, a panicked cotton plant on his shoulder, and a smug AI panda named Shiv who asked him to pick a class. He chose Botanist, the weakest class. Shiv laughed and dumped him on a planet full of flesh-eating, brain-hijacking, nightmare plants. Now John has no power, no combat skill, and no clue. All he has is: A glowing survival backpack, a grumpy, sentient cotton plant named Mister Barry, and a stolen journal he barely understands. But hey… maybe that’s enough. Maybe a class no one respects can grow into something terrifying before the actual Multiverse Path of Chosen Game ( DEADLY) If the plants don’t eat him first. (Daily update: 20:00 GMT +8)
