When a world teeters on the edge of annihilation, a forbidden ritual is performed by desperate mages. But what they summon is no mere hero or divine savior. What emerges is a being without equal—a presence that bends magic, reality, and existence itself. He has no name. No allegiance. No destiny imposed upon him. Out of curiosity, he chooses one: Albert. Endowed with limitless magical power, able to control all forms of magic known or unknown, Albert can subdue demons, dragons, elves, dwarves, spirits, and even gods—without effort. With a whisper, he can rewrite the very laws of the world. But he does not come to conquer or save. He walks… to observe. As nations prepare, gods awaken, and ancient beings tremble, a single question echoes through every realm: Will Albert preserve this world… or rewrite it from nothing?

As friendships are tested and alliances form, the four realize that returning home may demand more than courage, it may require confronting the very essence of their own identities. The Lost Dimension is a tale of adventure, mystery, and self-discovery, exploring the boundaries between reality and imagination.

I always knew this world was evil, unfair, unjust. A toxic place for anyone who dares to fight for good. But knowing and seeing are two different things. And I’ve seen it for myself. My name is Ross Mutt, and with a single phone call, my life changed forever. I was forced to fight for a legacy I never wanted. But as a wise man once said , differentiate between what you want and what’s real. That reality came in the form of The Turtle Companies , a network of ruthless, influential people controlling the world from the shadows. They decide which nations go to war, which diseases spread, even who gets to live or die. They are the hidden puppeteers of our existence. And somehow, I found myself in a losing battle against them. A fight I couldn’t walk away from. Just when I thought it was over, something… shifted. The world went silent and then I heard it.

[Stats Sync Complete] Then came the command. "Now rise… rise and be my champion." That was the moment my real fight began.

In a world where superhumans are categorized by the power of their cores—mighty Alphas and capable Betas—sixteen-year-old Ark Greystone is a Null. Powerless. Invisible. A bullied nerdy boy destined to watch his two childhood friends, a prodigious pyrokinetic and a brilliant telepath-telekinetic, ascend to the heights of the Hero Academy while he is left behind in the dust of their awakening. The day before the fateful entrance exam, as Ark resigns himself to a future in the science and tech wing, a final gift from his late grandfather changes everything: a mysterious USB drive that doesn't just contain data—it downloads a system directly into his mind. When he wakes, a mechanical interface is permanently etched into his vision: The Assassin System. Suddenly, Ark is no longer a Null. His core is classified, his rank expunged from official records. He possesses not flashy elemental powers, but the cold, precise knowledge of a predator: anatomy, stealth protocols, weapon mastery, and the calculated means to exploit any weakness. While heroes summon fire and move objects with their minds, Ark calculates kill zones and pressure points. Now, he must navigate the treacherous waters of the Hero Academy, where familiar friends are growing distant, old bullies are now empowered enemies, and new faces—a cold, aloof swordswoman with impossible strength and a nerdy boy with elastic abilities—complicate his path. All while hiding the terrifying truth of his power from everyone, including himself. But as Gateways to monstrous Otherworlds threaten humanity, Ark is forced to ask: was this system designed to create a hero... or something else entirely? To survive, he must level up, unlock the System's deadly secrets, and decide if he will use this power to protect the world that rejected him, or to carve out his own destiny from the shadows.

This is an original Hunter x Hunter fanfiction — not a translation or repost. When sixteen-year-old Kagetsu Yuzuki dies saving a child from a fire, he wakes up in another world — a world of Hunters, Nen, and unending danger. Except this time… he’s not quite himself. White hair. Azure eyes that shimmer with endless depth. The legendary Six Eyes — a gift that defies the very logic of Nen. But Yuzuki isn’t here to dominate or rewrite the story. He’s kind, idealistic, and maybe a little too soft-hearted for the brutal world he’s fallen into. He believes in people. He forgives enemies who don’t deserve it. He still dreams of peace in a place where strength means survival. As he grows, fights, and learns the truth behind his powers, Yuzuki’s beliefs will be tested — because in Hunter x Hunter, kindness can save lives… or destroy them. This isn’t a power-fantasy or harem story. It’s about growth, morality, and what happens when a good heart tries to survive in a merciless world. Romance may come later, but for now, Yuzuki’s focus is on surviving, learning Nen, and finding his place in a story that isn’t his. That said — I’m open to female lead recommendations! I’d love to hear your thoughts on who might suit him best as the story unfolds. Join Yuzuki as he navigates friendship, danger, and the thin line between compassion and weakness — all while trying to make sure his heart stays intact in a world that breaks even the strongest souls.

“He calls himself an exorcist, but every victory belongs to the Eye that watches him.” Synopsis: Akari has always been invisible — ignored at home, mocked at school, and forgotten everywhere else. But when a strange wooden shrine appears in his room, his life takes a darker turn. From it comes Izan, a colossal, unblinking eye that clings to his ceiling and whispers truths no human should know. Izan does not belong to this world, yet it offers Akari something he’s never had before: power. Now, Akari makes his living as a so-called exorcist, solving ghostly disturbances and supernatural horrors that plague desperate clients. To them, he’s a savior. To himself, he’s a fraud — for every victory belongs to the eye watching over him. But some things aren’t meant to be banished so easily. When a client arrives with tales of a faceless man — a figure with only a mouth, who impregnates women before leaving them to die — Akari is forced into a case that pushes him to the edge of his fragile pact with Izan. In a world where humans and monsters blur together, Akari must face the truth: Is he the hunter of horrors… or just another vessel waiting to be hollowed out? ---

The skies withheld their rain. The Cai River was dying. The people of Nam Linh said the Dragon Deity required a new Bride. This year, it was Ling Luo's turn. The ancient Shaman-Blood inside her had sealed her fate. As the ritual boat reached the center, she did not tremble. Her gaze fixed on the black vortex—the dragon's lair—a place the villagers both revered and feared. She did not throw herself down like an obedient offering. She stepped down, as one seeking answers. The riverbed was not a place of death. It opened into a desolate, faintly glowing water palace. There was no grace here. Only hundreds of golden chains, and a god... pinned by them to the dragon's lair. He spoke: "Your soul is the offering." She answered: "My life was not meant to sustain a lie." In the depths of the palace, as the Drought Demon rages, is love a covenant of salvation, or the final, tragic loop? ###Note: Inspired by Vietnamese mythology. A dark fantasy romance. Content warning: themes of sacrifice and power imbalance.
