survival

The world didn't end with a bang. It ended with a beautiful, golden rain that turned everyone into "devious" monsters. ​One minute, the world was normal. The next, humanity was stripping off its clothes and its sanity, transformed into feral zombies driven by a hunger that wasn't just for flesh. The stench of rot filled the air, and the "Devious" began their hunt. ​Hex—short for Hexald is the only man who didn't turn. But he discovered something much crazier than the apocalypse: His DNA is the only vaccine. ​One "dose" of his release can turn a monster back into a beautiful woman. The catch? It only lasts seven days. After 168 hours, the hunger returns, the skin turns cold, and the madness takes over again. ​Now, Hex is the most valuable resource on a dying planet. In a world where every woman is a ticking time bomb, he has to choose who to save and who to let turn. From the blonde-haired, chocolate-skinned Janiella to ice-queen editors and high-ranking officers, they all need his "medicine." ​He isn’t a hero. He isn’t a saint. He’s just one man trying to manage a growing harem of survivors who are literally dying for his touch. ​The clock is ticking. Sunday is coming. And Hex is almost out of time. ​"One week of sanity. One night with me. Pick one."

The revolver’s barrel — was it the beginning… or the end? This is my first novel, and I am not a native English speaker. I started writing it because I was tired of clichés — harems, overpowered main characters, everyone getting slapped around. I wanted to create something different, something unexpected. The story contains violence, gore, and disturbing scenes. If you’re not comfortable with that, this isn’t for you.

They told me transmigrators get cheat skills. I got a system that rewards promotions. So I did what any sane man would do—I took the job nobody wanted. Vice Director of the Medical Division? Check. ANBU Logistics Squad Leader? Done. Head of the Corpse Disposal Unit? Absolutely. The Hokage thinks I'm climbing toward his chair. Danzō thinks I'm building a power base. Even Orochimaru's watching me now. They're all wrong. I just need ten more promotions to unlock the real prize. Too bad the system never mentioned one thing: Every time I get promoted… someone dies.

To love is to give yourself away to place your heart in trembling hands. To lose is to hear the hollow echo of what once filled you, a silence heavier than sound. To heal is to learn that broken things do not lose their light, but often shine brighter than before. Healing is not forgetting, nor is it pretending the wound was never there. It is choosing, again and again to breathe, even when every breath burns. And though the world may not understand the weight you carry, still, you remain. Still, you are enough. Still, you are alive.

Eren’s last memory of Earth is embarrassingly mundane: a lazy, lonely evening interrupted by his own hand. But death isn’t the end. He awakens in a world ruled entirely by succubi, chained, powerless, and utterly surrounded by beautiful, predatory women. In a land where men are myths and desire is law, Eren is the last male alive — a walking temptation and a target for power. Shameless, vulgar, and surprisingly bold, he speaks his mind without filter, testing the patience and composure of the most dangerous women in the realm. Among them is Kori, the succubus queen: centuries-old, devastatingly powerful, and unable to bear an heir through magic alone. When Eren’s reckless touch unexpectedly triggers her ancient magic, she claims him — not just as a consort, but as the key to her legacy. Now a pawn in a decadent, seductive empire, Eren must navigate jealousy, lust, and deadly intrigue while leveraging his unique, erotic power to survive. In a world where pleasure is a weapon and every glance could be lethal, he has one goal: collect wealth, gain strength, and maybe… just maybe… return home.

The dragons started a war to remain at the top. A war against humanity. A war where they fought endlessly, driven by their hunger for humans. Humanity’s numbers fell while the dragons kept feeding. But half of dragon kind resisted. They didn’t understand why the others were eating humans. What was the point? They appreciated humanity. And so, they sparked a revolution—ushering in the War of Dragons. That revolution led to the Age of Dragon Slayers. Dragons helped humans create Dragon Slayer Magic—a magic meant to kill their own kind. And so, humanity fought back. The Age of Dragon Slaying began—the war between dragon kind and humanity erupted. I was born in the midst of it all. A dragon who hatched just before this chaos began. Raised in an era of survival, born into the Age of Dragon Slayers… where the battlefield was everywhere, and death followed every step. ---- Main World: Fairy Tail. as of right now First world: Fairy Tail Second world: Solo Leveling, Third world: Fate Series .... If you're here expecting a genius strategist—the kind of MC who calculates every move, thinks ten steps ahead, and treats life like a chessboard—you’re in the wrong story. the only mindset of the MC is: “Overthinking just keeps you stuck. Stop complicating it, take the step, move forward, then figure it out.” That quote? Yeah, it’s the heart of this fanfic. If it’s not your thing, that’s cool, feel free to move on.

“In an age where knowledge cuts deeper than knives, Victoria is about to learn far more than is safe for any soul to bear.” Victoria and Robert were torn from the gentle dullness of their ordinary century and cast into a realm governed by proto-concepts—those ancient, unblinking truths from which life, death, and divinity themselves are carved. Proclaimed “Heroes” by a world too desperate to question its own choices, they were commanded to rise in strength, confront a Demon Lord, and deliver salvation to a land that had never been theirs. Robert donned the mantle with the fervour of a man stepping into destiny. Victoria… hesitated. And in that hesitation, something old—older than scripture, older than light—turned its gaze toward her. She felt its attention like a draft through a locked room. In a moment poised between terror and terrible understanding, she accepted its offer: a contract sealed in silence, a year of her life exchanged for a thing that should never have been permitted to exist. Not in this world. Not in any. She did not yet grasp that, in straying from the Hero’s ordained path, she had not merely shifted her fate— she had begun to unwrite the very scaffolding of her humanity. Now Victoria walks like a phantom through a world that has marched on without her— one year behind the celebrated Hero, yet burdened with an insight so sharp it threatens to cut her free from mortality itself. She can now trespass upon knowledge forbidden to scholars, sorcerers, or even those who stand at the pinnacle of human mastery. She commits the kind of acts whispered only of beings who have stepped beyond the human threshold… and never returned. And in a world built on primordial, immovable truths, one truth endures: Knowledge is power. But power, when mishandled, becomes a curse that devours its bearer— quietly, inevitably, like rot beneath embroidered silk.

Eve stands at the edge of the world, where the foam of a billion seas whispers of greed and ruin. A voice — ancient and grating — has claimed her. Is it to save her, or to use her? Her waking hours are no longer her own. She will face true Rot. Tame true Fear. And in service to an entity that speaks through the gasps between wind and silence, she is mandated to save everyone—those who were her ancestors in a distant past, and those who will one day roam the distant future. As the boundary between dreams and nightmare dissolves, one question remains: when the world is saved...if it can be saved— will anything of Eve remain?
