survival

When even death itself sees no difference between an innocent infant and a corrupted man, how else can one survive, especially in the face of war and bloodshed? With the kingdom of the Northern Island tearing itself apart with a rebellion and a civil war on the way, what is stopping the kingdom from collapsing entirely? As a prince and the true heir to the throne, Orevian Ballister must grasp the throne, taking up arms to lead those loyal to him through lands he has never been to before-- the windy mountains of the Rocklands, the fertile fields of the East Plains, and the spring-born lands of the South Cradle. The eyes of the rebels and the unbelievers lurk in the shadows and their steel awaits for theirs, but hope is stronger than fear, and hope is certainly not lost. Follow each unique character down the path of bloodshed as the rebellion ravages across the lands while an impending civil war peeks its head. Witness the rise and fall of heroes as those with the strongest will fight to survive this messed up world. This is the Tale of Blades and Blood.

Born into a world of golden cages and royal expectations, Luni makes a daring escape to reclaim her freedom. Living as a commoner in a mysterious seaside town, she thinks she's safe—until she crosses paths with two brothers, Nashito and Rashito.

Laia Hayes is just the broke orphan scholarship kid of Aetheris Academy, scraping by on night shifts and skipped meals. All she wants for her 18th realm awakening is a tiny pocket domain, a handful of casual worshippers, and just enough faith tax to cover her tuition. No power games, no fanatic batteries, just a quiet, normal life. Too bad the refugees she picked up from the Chaos Sea aren't what they seem. That ragtag bunch of runaways? They're actually the most powerful overlords of every race—dragon lords, elven archmages, demon princes, even the queen of the rakkasra swarm. They're on the run from a tyrant Greater God, and they're convinced Laia is a hidden Overgod, slumming it among mortals to hide from the world. Now Laia's accidentally built a realm where her "fake refugee believers" are building starships, forging legendary weapons, and revolutionizing industry, turning her tiny pocket realm into the most powerful domain in existence. Everyone at the academy thinks she's the strongest god in the world. And Laia? She's just trying to figure out why her refugees are paying her so much tax that she can afford a hundred new awakening crystals. Who knew the quiet life would turn her into the most powerful god alive?

Synopsis: Magic had always been a passion for many. Kids would always have sparks in their eyes, seeing people able to cast fire from their hands or throw thunder from a single thought. However, this era ended several years ago —but magic didn’t disappear. Under the first Arc Mage, Donatello, it simply changed form—from raw to something more... card-like, as they say. Kairo is passionate about card magic, eager to learn all its secrets. But his curiosity and rigid moral compass are setting him up for a rough ride in the Card Mage Police. Little does he know that a single train encounter will shape the world in ways he never imagined. Now, Kairo must dive into dangerous missions, fighting continuously stronger opponents, forging unthinkable alliances, and discovering unimaginable mysteries about his world—all while trying to keep it in one piece. Is the present worth living without a future? Kairo would have never asked such a question—until he discovered what Donatello had done. Will he survive the greatest Arch Mage of his time and rewrite history? Dive into the world of Card Mages to find out.

HI, So I guess I should greet you, or should I greet the energy behind you first? So I am Adi, who can see spirits since childhood, and I was not pretty proud about that fact, but surely now it is my life, so a greater kind of mess is about to happen in my life.

He thought the strange presence in his life had disappeared, until it came back. Closer. Clearer. And far too familiar to be called a stranger. The man who appears before him feels the same… yet not the same. As fragments of memory and past begin to surface, he is forced to question everything. Was it really the same person he had been searching for all these years… or someone else entirely? Because even if memories fade— some connections never do. And this one… refuses to let him go.

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.

'Hell is empty and all the devils are here.' -- Williams Shakespeare --- "Should I dip my hands in holy water so I can touch you?" His breath fanned her neck as he spoke close to her ear, causing an anxious shiver to run down her spine. Her eyes widened before narrowing slightly. "You are crazy." She whispered back with a shaking voice. "Why?" He asked, awed. His eyes now staring at her. "Because you would get burned." --- Opposites attract. That’s what everyone says, but light and darkness are two very contrasting entities. Annabelle is the perfect definition of pure and innocent, while on the other hand, Kione is the opposite of that—dark and a devil with an angelic appearance. Too forbidden to be a perfect match.

The weakest girl in the apocalypse accidentally became the obsession of multiple apex predators. Unfortunately for them, predators don’t share easily. Felicity was supposed to die on the first day of the apocalypse. Zombies devour the weak. Beastmen rule the ruins of human cities. Strength decides everything now. Felicity has none. Small, soft spoken, and completely unsuited for a world like this, she survives only because Victor finds her first. Victor is a winged apex predator feared by every beastman who crosses his path. He does not protect strangers. But once he chooses something… he does not let it go. Unfortunately for him, other predators have started noticing her too. A wolf who watches too quietly. A snake whose patience feels dangerous. A lion who refuses to leave her side. Predators who should never share anything. Except her. Because something about Felicity is changing them. And in a beast ruled apocalypse, predators were never meant to share. Unfortunately for them, Felicity might be worth learning how. https://discord.gg/daZsu8AU7B ___________ 150 golden tickets 3 chapters a day dragon gift = 4 extra chapters posted castle gift = 3 chapters posted for a week + you can kill any side character if u want. spacecraft gift = 4 chapters posted a day for a week + you can make a character either it be the next husband or next bestie. gachapon gift = you can either kill a member of snow team (not sarge or tommy) or promote even the weakest member of snow or leaf team to husband role and you get to tell me what the next 10 chapters should focus around (within my rules of course)

Monsters descend upon the world. Cities fall. Humanity retreats. And fear gives every creature a single name—monster. After transmigrating into this chaotic era, small-time streamer Chen Mo discovers a terrifying truth: the so-called monsters are actually Pokémon. The fire-breathing dragon that wiped out an armed squad? Charizard. The iron-biting rat demon invading homes? Rattata. The deadly butterfly spreading poison powder? Butterfree. While the world prepares for extermination, Chen Mo does the unthinkable— he turns on a livestream. Armed with a Pokémon knowledge system, Chen Mo ventures into monster-infested zones, explaining their names, abilities, evolution, and behavior in real time. From harmless Metapod to electric Pichu, he proves that Pokémon are not mindless beasts—but intelligent creatures capable of trust, growth, and partnership. As viewership explodes, so does controversy. Can humans and Pokémon really coexist? Or is total war inevitable? From mocked streamer to global authority, Chen Mo sparks a revolution of understanding—one Pokémon at a time. Years later, history will remember him as the Father of Pokémon, the Founder of Pokémon Battles, and the man who changed the fate of two species forever. This is the story of how humanity stopped fearing monsters—and started calling them Pokémon.

Opening her eyes, she becomes the eldest daughter of the Great General of Liuyin Kingdom. She is the modern girl that transmigrated into a world that only respects the strong. Bullied by her cousins... Broken engagement... She did not care about all of that. Her motto is inspired by one of her favourite anime, Hyouka: "If I don't have to do it, I won't. If I have to do it, I'll make it quick." "You already come into this Lord's hug. Don't you dare to run?" A Lord threatens her. "Do you think I'm scared of you? You can keep dreaming." She spoke back. She just wants to have a peaceful life, however, can she has it? Author Note: - The cover image for this novel credit goes to its creator.

I wanted an S-Rank core trait. I wanted to be special. An elite. At the very least, I wanted a single core trait ability. I wanted it so badly I would've died for it. So why... Why did I awaken with nothing? Fifty years ago, gates connecting the mortal world and the monster world appeared. Monsters poured out. People awakened. Those blessed with power became known as Ascendants. Heroes. But Unfortunately... not everyone received that blessing. My name is Ming Tia Xu. A rankless Ascendant. A failure who awakened for the sake of awakening. Chasing a false legend I should never have believed. I was nothing more than a mistake waiting to be discarded. Finally surrendered to death. Then reincarnation happened. And I obtained something I should never have touched. A power that does not belong in this universe. A power that can bend laws, challenge fate, and erase what should never be erased. With every dungeon I conquer, I grow stronger. With every quest, I move closer to the truth hidden behind my existence. But power always demands a price. And mine is one no Ascendant would ever accept. The power I received is also a curse. One that turns every battle into a nightmare. Because in a world where everyone fights to kill— I cannot. #WeakToStrong #Reincarnation #System #NoHarem #MaleMC #MagicAndSwordsmanship #Gates #Academy #Deities/Gods #hidden linage

When Aldric clicked Confirm, expecting a rez glitch, he got transmigrated to Westeros — the world of Game of Thrones with no interface or guild chat, and certainly no way back. Wearing epic plate armor that shines too much, thirty thousand gold nobody here can explain, and not one paladin spell left. The first village he reached was already ash and bodies...

Ender traveled to the world of Swallowed Star. If possible, he would have loved to cling to the protagonist Luo Feng’s leg, but all he knew was that his planet belonged to the Molten Rock Empire—he knew nothing else. Fortunately, he possessed an extraordinary comprehension of the innate laws and 32 times the initial gene level as his starting advantage. This allowed him to rise from an ordinary cultivation planet within the Molten Rock Empire to the stage of the Universe Pinnacle Genius Battle. At that point, he discovered that this version of Swallowed Star was somewhat different from what he remembered— “What? Humans have 1,004 universe countries?!” “What? The strongest participant in this Universe Pinnacle Genius Battle is Kedi?!” Only then did Ender realize that he had traveled too far back in time—even Luo Feng’s future teacher, King Zhenyan, had not yet been born. Traveled too far? It didn’t matter. Ender claimed that he possessed a legacy—one even stronger than Luo Feng’s—and that in the future, he would stand above the God King! Note: The protagonist has both talent and inheritance, and the author has only read Swallowed Star! Only read Swallowed Star! Only read Swallowed Star! (Important things should be said three times.) The protagonist will be upgraded in Chaos City, a clone will appear later, and the protagonist should not be treated as a typical transmigrator. (Foreword: Please do not consider the protagonist a normal Transmigrator, as normal Transmigrators do not lose their memories...)

Nathan Cole was a surgeon in Boston until a hospital ceiling collapsed during a fire, burying him in rubble and smoke. He wakes up surrounded by the neon-green glow of the Moors, inhabiting a body that isn't his but possesses an Eternal Vessel trait that keeps him perpetually young. As he explores this fairy-tale realm, he discovers he can bend the laws of physics with Gravity Dominion and walk through walls via Shadow Step. While King Stefan’s iron-clad armies march to destroy the magical creatures he now calls friends, Nathan stands as an anomaly—a human who can control the very iron meant to kill him. In between the high-stakes battles for Maleficent’s daughter, Nathan finds himself oddly preoccupied with teaching the forest sprites how to play a simplified version of baseball using gravity-defying rocks. He isn't just a survivor of a fire anymore; he is the gravitational anchor of a kingdom at war.
