survival

Fifteen-year-old Aric thought life as an orphan couldn’t get any harder—until he’s thrown into a hidden world of lycanthropes, dark sorcerers, and vampires. Amid the chaos, a strange and dangerous power stirs within him, one he doesn’t fully understand. Can he survive this supernatural world and uncover the secret of his own mysterious power?

In a world haunted by darkness, a single spark can rewrite fate itself. When shadows devour everything he ever knew, Raizen is left with nothing but grief - and a vow to hunt down and kill every Nyx. He shouldn't have been alive. But darkness made a mistake. Now, he'll burn the world to hunt it down. At his side stands Hikari, a mysterious girl with a blurry past and a dark fate she cannot escape - one that even she fears. From the ashes of loss to The Underworks, to the halls of Neoshima's Lotus Academy, and Vanguard duty - Raizen's surrounded by ruthless rivals, corrupt officials, adapting creatures and secrets sharp enough to kill. He must grow stronger - or die quietly. A story with battles of unimaginable scale. A world that still echoes from disaster. Awakened powers that break every limit. Some call it Eon - a power beyond fate, a force that can bend reality itself. But something far darker is waking inside of Raizen. Something not meant to protect life... But to end it. As the darkness spreads, only one truth remains: The journey has only just begun. ⊰ 40K+ FREE WORDS BEFORE LOCK ⊱ A few words from the author: Hey there! Thanks for checking out Gilded Ashes!

__________________ The war ended. The scars remained. One hundred and forty years ago, humans and Kratians bled together to survive annihilation. Peace followed. But peace is a lie told by those who benefit from silence. Now, the Ortho Sapiens rise, radicals born from fear, fed by hate. They will erase the Kratians. They will rewrite history in blood. Jack doesn’t rise, he erupts with fury. Half-human. Half-Kratian. Loyal to his own. Merciless to his enemies. A storm forged in loss, consumed by an insatiable hunger for vengeance. With a stolen time machine and a cohort of broken killers, he will vanish into the past. Not to undo what was done. To become what must be feared. Because what’s coming isn’t justice. It’s a reckoning. And the future won’t survive it.

Different soul and Different Rudues that's an old story. This one is Different soul, Different circumstances, Different characters and different writing style. Just enjoy this story while I'm trying to fix mistakes, plot and loop holes in the original story and taking ideas from other authors to make perfect story This Rudues will change the timeline don't except copy, paste of the original. But the fixed points can't be changed this Rudues will be well balanced MC. But not a weak one too. Also this Rudues far from being perverted but still he got Greyrat genes so he will almost have normal childhood but.... This Rudues had accepted himself as Rudues greyrat so let's see what will happen in the story. English is my second language, so take it easy on me on grammar mistakes. Well this story is slow paced with many slice of life scenes and will be advancing slowly because I'm not 100% free to write. If any good author would like to hear the full story and take it feel free but dm me to understand how it is going. Also obviously I don't own the story I'm just a nerd fan who loves to fix loop and plot holes in the stories, if anything I recommend you to read the original story from (rifujin na maganote) of course if you are over 18 and prepared to read an amazing story.

It was the Great Age of Pirates, surging forward with their thousand sails unfurled. One young man from earth ate the Goro Goro no Mi and joined the Marine. Justice vs Evil, Freedom vs Tyranny, the colliding waves between them would never cease. But all of this…..”I couldn’t care less about!!” At the summit of the war, surrounded by ten thousand people, Rowen held a thunder halberd in hand and walked forward with strong steps. Rivals meet face to face, but only one could become the King.

Transported into the world of Genshin Impact, Kael obtained the Tragedy Simulator. As long as he kept delivering tragedies, he would grow stronger. "Ganyu, please enjoy the beauty of this world for me..." "Acting Grand Master Jean, it was truly wonderful to protect Mondstadt with you... I think I’m a little tired... I’ll just rest for a while..." "Beidou, scatter my ashes into the sea. I’ll always be with you on your voyages..." Kael thought that after the simulation, he would only gain abilities, and the characters wouldn’t remember what had happened. But one day, Lumine rushed into his arms, tears streaming down her face, and cried, "This time, I won’t let you leave!" Kael: ???

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ 1 bonus chap per 500PS. 1 bonus chap per 100GT. 3/5 bonus chap for reaching rank 100/80 in GT ranking respectively. Discord Server Link: 6JA46z23bw

His name was Nathaniel Emberworth Wyndham, a simple nineteen-year-old with unruly dark hair that often fell over his deep, shadowed eyes. Of average height and quiet demeanor, he moved unnoticed through the bustling streets of the city he reluctantly called home—a world too loud for someone who preferred silence. But one day, everything changed. Nathaniel found himself in another world—Infipousdefinity Despous Ta-Neter Mundus—a place of endless mysteries, strange beings, and creatures unlike anything known to man. **The reason i created this novel** Sometimes, we find ourselves in new places—new environments, new cultures, surrounded by new people. And in those unfamiliar worlds, some will take advantage of your ignorance. They will trick you, deceive you, or try to manipulate you for their own gain. In such an environment, where there’s no one to rely on but yourself, you must observe carefully and stay cautious. Don’t give your trust easily. Learn to survive and live on your own without depending too much on others. We dream new dreams. We grow cautious because of people. We crave things like status and wealth, knowing how hard life can be without them. We miss the ones we used to laugh with, miss our families—even just a little. We feel the distance, the separation, and fear we might not overcome the challenges ahead. As our surroundings change, we experience new things. Some people abandon us, while others change on their own—maturing, evolving. Yet even as we grow, we remain the same person behind that mature facade. We stumble and cry, we feel pain and keep it buried inside. But in time, we learn to fight back, realizing that pain fades once we learn to shield and defend ourselves.

The world ended on a Tuesday. Cities fell. Monsters rose. And somehow… my d*ck got a system. Hi. I’m Rex Lucifer, 22, certified virgin, chronic overthinker, and now officially the world’s last hope. Right when the apocalypse began tearing the world apart, the heavens opened— —not to save humanity— —but to install a gacha system into my soul. And guess what? Turns out my seed is the cure to the virus that wiped out 70% of men on earth and turned half the planet into hormonal murder-beasts. [Host: Rex Lucifer] [Function: Cure the virus with… uh, “seed distribution.”] [Daily Point Reset: 00:00] [Points Earned: By killing monsters. The uglier they are, the more they drop.] [Current Gacha Rates] SSR Heroine (1%) – “Congratulations, you lucky bastard.” SR Heroine / Rare Item (4%) – “Nice pull. Don’t waste her.” Common Supplies (30%) – “Bandages, yay.” Trash (65%) – “A rusty spoon. Amazing.” With men nearly extinct, women everywhere are: Armed, Desperate And Hot And… extremely curious about my “healing method.” From katana-wielding samurai girls, to mutant-immune police officers, to tsundere scientists who want to “study my fluid composition”… My life turned into a reverse apocalypse harem overnight. I just wanted to survive. Now I’m being chased by a woman carrying a shotgun and asking if I can “check her for symptoms.” (…She wasn’t infected.) (…She just wanted a baby.) This world is insane.

Why did you become a hunter? Why put on armor, take up a heavy weapon, and begin this hunt? Is it to prove yourself, to pursue the tender dreams of childhood, to seek vengeance born of blood and tears, to embrace this cruel yet beautiful world? Or perhaps you simply yearn for that endless wilderness... ------------ What to expect: - No superpowers or cheat abilities - An extremely talented protagonist - No isekai/reincarnation elements - Living, breathing characters with depth - Sharp, engaging dialogue It’s okay if you’re not familiar with the Monster Hunter world but I recommend keeping a wiki open so you can quickly see what each monster looks like.

INTERTWINED (WHEN TIMETAKES YOU BACK) What if the past held your future? When Isabella “Bella” Carter, a brilliant, skeptical college student from the city, steps into her campus lab that fateful day, she expects to witness science in motion, not magic. But one wrong spark sends her spiraling through time, tumbling from her modern world into the ancient Kingdom of Joseon, where honor rules, secrets kill, and one misstep can cost your life. Waking in a world that feels like a dream and a nightmare entwined, Bella becomes an outsider in every sense, her skin, her speech, her clothes mark her as something other. Yet amid suspicion and whispers, a widow and her spirited young daughter take her in, offering not just refuge, but the first flicker of belonging in a world that shouldn’t exist for her. But fate isn’t done with her yet. When Bella saves a wounded stranger on the roadside, she has no idea she’s just altered the course of history, because that stranger is Crown Prince Lee Ji-ho, heir to the throne and prisoner of duty. Bound by gratitude and curiosity, he seeks her out, and from that moment, their lives become perilously intertwined. Drawn into the glittering yet treacherous palace life, Bella discovers a world of dangerous beauty, where power wears a smile, betrayal hides behind silk screens, and every whispered secret could be her undoing. As her bond with the prince deepens into something forbidden, she faces an impossible choice between love and survival, between destiny and return. With rebellion staring in the shadows and time itself beginning to unravel, Bella must decide: is she meant to go home, or was she brought here for a reason that defies every law of nature? “Intertwined (When Time Takes You Back)” is a sweeping, emotional, and time-bending historical drama where romance burns through centuries, and one woman’s journey through the past might just rewrite the future.

I died from overwork as a top chef and woke up as the Hard Mode character in my favorite dating sim, `Beastly B.A.D.s`!

If I can win over the Wolf, the Merman, the Panther, the Tiger, or the Snake, I just might be able to find a new husband and escape my fate. This failed Fox is about to start the game on her own terms. Let the husband-hunting... begin! Note: This is a 1v1 Romance (One male lead chosen in the main story). However, Alternate Endings for the other love interests will be available in the Side Stories!

Sora Knight has just achieved what many would dream of—becoming an imperial knight at the age of sixteen. He's a prodigy that has it all: the looks, a sharp tongue, and an even sharper sword. But is life really all about girls and glory? Everything changes when he dies and sees the future, a future only he can see, a future only he can change. Brown hair, red eyes, and an intimate mark—A fair maiden looked up at him with crimson eyes void of life; who is she? He asks himself. He wakes up, never dead, and finds himself face to face with the same girl he saw in his "dream"—the demon princess, Ariana Aredhel—the woman whom he’s expected to marry for political reasons.

For an entire year, Scott was addicted to playing Sporos, a survival game he found online. He was addicted to the brutal, open-world simulation known for its 99.9% mortality rate, a digital hellscape defined by the "Blooming Decay Event" that swallowed humanity twenty millennia ago. He died thousands of times to the acid-drenched fangs of Spore Beasts and the lung-collapsing rot of cyclonic spore storms. Pushed to the brink of frustration by the game's impossibility, Scott spent weeks coding a balancing script—a "Shelter Core" cheat designed to defy the game’s cruel fate. However, things took another extreme turn as Scott woke up trapped in the body of a "Critically Weakened" Shelter Lord on Sporos, with a remaining lifespan of only 17 years. He is now a mutated survivor struggling to breathe in a world where the atmosphere is thick with corrosive pollen and the ground is buried beneath miles of sentient, hungry mycelial mats. However, the code came with him. Floating before his eyes is the interface that will change the fate of this rotting world. While the horrors of Sporos—the flesh-eating Biolilies and the hallucinations of the Feral Echo, Scott begins his grind. He possesses the unique ability to inject fixed experience points into his very DNA, forcing evolution where nature intended decay.

The year is 2065. A devout Christian named Arthur Bennett wins a lottery to participate in a virtual reality experience at a high-tech company called Elysium. The program utilizes a VR pod to immerse users in a world based on a popular cartoon from Japan. As the other participants—a mix of personalities with varying degrees of Japanese animation knowledge—prepare to enter the simulation, Arthur remains the only one who has never indulged in it. Upon entering this new world, he discovers an unsettling truth: pain is excruciatingly real despite Elysium’s claims of a dampened pain response. Arthur eventually finds himself trapped in prison, unable to log out, and demanding to be released from the program. Calls go unanswered, and the world of ninjas becomes a nightmare where hunger, thirst, hygiene, and even death are all real. Angered that he was deceived, he abandons all sense of logic and vows to become a villain no one had ever anticipated.

Arthur Bennett and six others win a lottery ticket to participate in a high-tech company's virtual reality experiment. The other participants come from diverse backgrounds: Alexander Costa, Jasper Reza, Margaret Campbell, William Rodriguez, and Jada Schmidt. When Arthur arrives in the ninja world, he finds himself trapped in a prison cell and unable to log out. He is also terrified by the warning he received prior: if he dies in the game, he will die in real life. After enduring grueling days in prison, he resolves that his only way to escape this world is by destroying it while maintaining his faith in Jesus Christ our Lord. Not only does he manage to break free from this prison, he also learns his first real technique, which better equips him to survive. Suspicious of the other players' involvement in this game, he decides to test their spirit, only to understand that he cannot trust anyone. So he chooses to play innocent until he grows stronger.

In a boundless cosmos woven from threads of energy and law, every living being is born tethered to the Veins of Heaven — spiritual conduits that connect mortal souls to the pulse of the Universe itself. To cultivate is to harmonize with these veins, refine one’s essence, and ascend through the countless realms toward enlightenment. Yet, the Will of the Universe — an unseen, conscious force governing all existence — remains unreachable to even the greatest Immortals. But fate shatters its silence when a forgotten mortal awakens with a Vein that does not belong to Heaven — one born from the Universe’s own Will. Core Message “The Will governs all, yet it was born from life itself. To walk the Path to the Will of the Universe is not to submit to it — but to remind it why creation began.”

In a dying world where the sun has faded into eternal twilight, Silence is not safety—it is Warning. On every No-Moon Night, every adult turns to stone, their minds trapped and tormented by the Whispers of sentient STARS. Only children and the Blighted remain awake, preyed upon by monsters born from corrupted magic. August awakens in this ruined world with memories not entirely his own. Once a university student, now a petrified soul reborn in a foreign body, he finds himself surrounded by grief, fear and opportunity. His mind carries ruthless logic shaped by betrayal and strategy, yet he is haunted by borrowed memories of a life he never lived.
