survival

My name is Yuto, born in Kirigakure. As the First Mizukage, I had no desire to oppose Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, those two reckless fools. After all, both of them were absurdly overpowered, but the system forced me to unify the entire ninja world. So, at the very first Five Kage Summit, I flipped the table outright. But—kill me if I lie—I never expected those two fools to join forces and ambush me! They couldn’t kill me, though. So, as I was being sealed away, I gave the pair of them a solid middle finger!

The boys summoned from Earth were meant to be heroes. Instead, they became slaves. Branded as expendable weapons by the empire that summoned them, the group later known as the Strays survives through rebellion, escape, and bloodshed. Freedom comes at a cost—and now powerful nobles, mercenary orders, and kingdoms hunt the runaway summons who were never meant to live. Armed with stolen magic and hard-earned scars, the Strays travel a continent consumed by war, searching for one impossible prize: a way back to Earth. But in a world that profits from their existence, escaping may mean tearing down the very empires that control it.

Her Ladyship Anastasia Roseline Sinclair of Florence believed she had everything: a noble title, a promising future, and the love of Aaron Dinkley—the charming son of Duke Andrew Dinkley of Fortshire, one of Flambodia’s most powerful fiefs. Childhood sweethearts, Anastasia and Aaron were raised to believe they were destined for each other. But destiny is a cruel mistress. On the eve of her succession to Duchess of Florence, Anastasia is betrayed—by Aaron, the man she loved, her stepsister, and her own family. Stripped of her title, murdered in cold blood, and discarded like refuse in the wastelands, she is left to die. Yet death does not claim her. At the brink of death, Anastasia is reborn—not as a phoenix, but as a vulture. A vulture ready to devour the flesh and bones of her enemies. Cold and ravenous for retribution. She will reclaim her crown, her dignity, and her name. And she will make them all bleed. Because revenge is a meal best served cold. ......... Crown Prince Daniel Maxwell Devonte of Flambodia is feared across kingdoms. Ruthless in battle, merciless in court, he is known as the Dragon—a warrior whose enemies tremble at the mere mention of his name. His fame attracted him more enemies than friends including his own family. His own father King Reginald the Fifth, hated him but mostly feared him because of his power. Rumours swirled in the wind that his mother the former Queen cheated on the King and that he was not his son. However, rumours based on assumptions could not be regarded as evidence. Although it did not stop the current Queen and her minion children to peck around them and use them to their advantage in order to taint his already spoiled reputation. Daniel wears revenge like armor, his fury buried beneath layers of strategy and silence. He trusts no one. Loves no one. Until he meets her. The fiery red-haired stranger with eyes like embers and a soul forged in betrayal. Anastasia. Together, they are chaos incarnate. Two broken souls bound by vengeance, drawn together by bloodshed and ambition. Their enemies will fall. Their kingdoms will burn. And the world will learn what happens when you cross a Duchess and a Dragon.

--- Taking a break to rewrite, will be back ASAP --- "You will suffice." That's what something whispered in Raizen's mind before a Nyx that slaughtered his village dissolved into shining ashes at his feet. He doesn't know what spoke to him, or why it led him to an unconscious girl with no memory. All he knows is his parents are dead, his home is gone, and the only place that'll take him now is the Underworks - an undercity of rust beneath Neoshima's shining petal walls. Down there, Nyx hunters called Gravers scrape together coins for chipped Luminite and drag themselves back from contracts missing limbs… If they come back at all. Someone offers Raizen a choice: he can stay in the Underworks and survive on scraps like the rest, or train for the Lotus Academy - where Vanguards learn to shape Eon into techniques that bend what should be impossible. But the voice that saved him hasn't spoken again. And the higher he climbs, a dark truth becomes clearer: the thing that saved him and the darkness that has haunted humanity for centuries... Might just be the same thing.

REVISION IN PROGRESS (January 2026 – Present) This manuscript is undergoing ongoing revisions for clarity, continuity, and consistency. Any remaining errors or inconsistencies indicate sections that have not yet been finalized. Yanna Rivera is tired of surviving. A drowning college student in the gritty heart of Quezon City, she carries the crushing weight of her family’s predatory loans—a debt that threatens to bury them all. Her life is a suffocating cycle of panic and poverty, where she must make impossible choices just to keep the lights on. But deep down, Yanna harbors a secret, shameful craving: a desire to stop choosing. To stop thinking. To simply obey. Enter Camille Navarro. Camille is a whisper among Manila’s elite—a tattooed heiress with a body built for violence and eyes that strip souls bare. She doesn’t just acquire companies; she collects things that interest her. And when she discovers the desperate Rivera family on the brink of ruin, she doesn’t offer charity. She buys the debt. Overnight, Yanna’s creditor changes from a faceless loan shark to a woman who demands payment in flesh and obedience. The deal is a devil’s bargain: Yanna will live in Camille’s penthouse and serve her every whim until the ledger is cleared. But Camille is a meticulous sadist who sees the shivering masochist hiding behind Yanna’s fear. What begins with kneeling on munggo beans soon spirals into a dark, intoxicating world of ropes, leather, and headlocks that feel safer than any embrace Yanna has ever known. In the silence of the penthouse, Yanna discovers a terrifying freedom. Stripped of her autonomy, she is finally free from the burden of her chaotic life. But as the punishments turn into pleasure and the fear turns into worship, Yanna realizes she is falling for her tormentor. With the Navarro patriarch circling and the outside world threatening to shatter their twisted sanctuary, Yanna must face the ultimate question: Is she paying off a debt, or has she sold her soul to the only woman who knows how to break her perfectly?

They called him the Shame of the Clan, but before that, Vale Athrimir was a prodigy, one destined to lead. That ended the moment he manifested the Forbidden Mark Order. Branded, abandoned, and cast into prison, Vale was stripped of everything he has. Three years later, he was thrown into the Borderlands, a wasteland where the forsaken are worked to death and forgotten, to fight monsters and waste away. But Vale did not break. He began with nothing. No name. No allies. No power base. No faction. And yet… he built. From prisoners, exiled lords, and the discarded, Vale forged order out of chaos. What started as a desperate struggle for survival became something far greater, a growing force bound by ambition, discipline, and ruthless vision. Resources were seized. Territories claimed. Enemies crushed or absorbed. In a ruined world where strength dictates rule, Vale wasn’t just surviving, he was laying the foundation of an empire. As the Forbidden Mark Order revealed its true potential and an Ancient Inheritance fell into his hands, his rise became unstoppable. Clans and Kingdoms that once cast him aside would soon face something far more dangerous than a disgraced heir. A ruler. He will build something that cannot be overthrown.

He threw money on the bed after our one-night stand. I threw it back in his face at his own inauguration. By sundown, we were engaged. By the week's end — married. Franklin Flemington needed a wife to secure his empire. I needed a miracle to save my family. For two years, we played our parts flawlessly — the golden couple the whole city envied. Behind closed doors, I was invisible to him. When the two years were up, I handed him divorce papers without blinking. He stared at me like I'd lost my mind. "I've given you everything a husband should. What more do you want from me, Octavia?" I smiled, signed my name, and walked out. I thought that was the end. I thought I'd finally won. I forgot one thing — Franklin Flemington has never lost anything in his life. And he has no intention of starting with me. Game on.

What does daily life look like when you're building a home in hell? Chris died the way he lived—unremarkably. A burnout, a college dropout, a man who was never enough. When a bored god pulls his soul into another world, Chris expects power, magic, and a destiny worth living for. Instead, he gets seeds. Now he's stranded in the Barrens, a wasteland where empires dump their exiles to die. His only companions: a bag of magical soil, 180 seeds that can grow into any plant he imagines, and an old caretaker who teaches him the rules of survival. No combat skills. No magic. No grand destiny. Just dirt. Seeds. And one more day. But when a dungeon tide threatens the village, the old man makes a final stand—and Chris is left alone with a dying garden, a growing village, and a voice in his head that whispers he could be so much more. Now exiles find his gate. A fallen demon general offers his sword. An imperial assassin seeks a place to heal. And spies from the great empires watch to see if this gardener will bloom—or become something they fear. In the Barrens, daily life is survival. But Chris is learning to grow something worth surviving for. Seeds of Supremacy is a slow-burn isekai about building a home, carrying the weight of those you've lost, and choosing who you want to become when the world expects you to be a monster. Updates regularly. Plant system. Village building. No harem. No overpowered MC. Just a gardener with seeds and a dream.

Elric Voss is sixteen years old, two ranks above useless, and he wakes up one hour before everyone around him dies. The Caelith Mourne expedition has camped at the base of a sky-fallen pyramid ten thousand years old, and something sealed inside it has finally been disturbed. When the ground splits and the demons come, the thirty-one members of the expedition are dead inside of ten minutes. Elric wakes up again. Same tent, same wind, same pyramid filling the sky. One hour on the clock. He dies to the first demon in seconds. Then again. Then again... Magus Infinite is the story of a young acolyte who has nothing, no great power, no secret destiny, no teacher who believes in him, grinding the same hour of carnage until nothing in it can kill him anymore. Every death teaches him something. Every reset sharpens him. The spell that begins as a candle-flicker becomes a bolt that cracks the sky. The boy who could not survive two seconds against a single demon slowly becomes the only thing standing between the pyramid and the world outside it. The action never stops. Neither does Elric.
