Between the Human World and the Fairy Realm exists the Imagery World — a forgotten dimension where imagination becomes reality. After witnessing the death of a fictional character he desperately wanted to save, Zaraf is pulled into that world and awakens as a Creator, a being capable of shaping existence itself. But the worlds born from imagination are not empty stories. They are alive. And somewhere beyond the boundaries of those worlds… something ancient has begun to awaken. As the line between fiction and reality slowly collapses, Zaraf must decide whether these worlds are merely creations… or lives worth protecting.

In a world where every person possesses a floating book that grants them power at a cost, Arthur Kura lives an ordinary life in the city of Gruse, fascinated more by novels and philosophy than the strange system surrounding him. But beneath the ordinary world lies a mystery surrounding the Cruix—the codex book that governs every other book in existence. When Arthur becomes entangled with the Regans, a powerful organization guarding secrets far older than anyone realizes, his life begins to unravel. As friendships, memories, abilities, and identities become increasingly uncertain, Arthur is drawn into a conspiracy that reaches far beyond Gruse. Somewhere in the world, someone is attempting to connect the books of humanity itself. And if every book can be linked, the rules of Cruix may be rewritten

"I would do anything for my wish." For three very different students, that’s not just a saying it’s a promise. Guided by a mysterious app called " The Guide ", they’re offered a simple deal: complete bizarre, embarrassing, or even dangerous quests to earn points, and once they reach an unknown threshold, their deepest wish will be granted. Each approaches the game with their own strategy driven by desperation, ambition, or something darker and no task is too humiliating or extreme if it brings them closer to their goal. But as the quests grow stranger and the stakes higher, they begin to uncover the app’s hidden layers… and question just how far they’re truly willing to go. Because in this game, every point comes at a price and wishes may cost more than they ever imagined. I'll be posting this on royal road under the user name Rick Katagiri

Roger Desilva. My old customer was thrusting me from behind. I was enduring pain by closing my eyes, which was a bloody mistake yet again. The same enchanting smile popped up in my mind, which I was trying to get rid of for the past 5 years, but til today, I wasn’t successful. Before I could figure out that mingling was different from snatching, it was too late. He came like a swift wind, turned my world upside down, and vanished without a trace. I became a victim. Do we deserve this? Do I deserve this? I lost everything, but till now, I have not been successful in getting rid of his thoughts. For the past 5 years, I have been trying, but he keeps winning. When will I finally be free? I can't blame him for sure, but does he have the audacity to ask for my forgiveness at least once? Will he ever show up?

Living a story, many wish to enter their favourite book... But what if you actually could? That is the reality that Aether Moirai lives in, where readers bound to the Codex system can enter stories and grow stronger by changing their endings. But while awakening for most is a blessing, for the little Prince Aether, it had been a curse more than anything; he had been given this title at the worst moment of his life, trapped inside an enemy Kingdom that wanted his head, and to make it worse, his powers were those of a God, which, while it might seem like a good thing, had been the opposite. Between having to care about his own mental health and get stronger so his body doesn't get taken over, and trying to find himself, he also has to worry about the past he has no idea about, since it seems he's more connected to the world than he had thought. He has to decide if he wants to step into the role the world has given him, as the Vessel of one of the five gods of the world, or become a person of his own without losing himself. Quite a harsh world for one that seems like a fairy tale on paper... But what if those stories also have something to say about people entering them... that would make it way worse, wouldn’t it... P/S POTA is a novel with a lot of deaths; a lot of characters die. It’s a very dark novel for a reason, with no fear of gruesome and ugly scenes, but also one with a very complicated system and a lot of niche mechanics, and above all, the protagonist himself changes a lot through the story, and every part of his change is going to be shown, even the bad times. When it comes to uploads, there are two new chapters daily.

I woke from a dream, unintelligible mutterings echoing in my ears. I had forgotten myself, lost my past. I looked around, only to find I was already in hell, explosions rang through the blue sky, bullets ravaged the streets like a torrent, and the fires of war burned on this land without pause. The creatures who lived here had bodies that looked fragile yet were unfazed by ordinary firearms, they formed factions for their own ends, and spent their days slaughtering one another. Then, they found me... They called themselves students, and told me this place was called Kivotos. They also addressed me as, "Sensei." ---- Source: https: ()//()www.trxs( . )cc/ () tongren/ () 8630. )(html Author: Otter of Chaos

A normal teenager struggling with guilt, grief, and a mind she no longer trusts, Eliza spends her days trying to convince herself she’s not broken. But when her best friend’s boyfriend reveals himself to be something inhuman, her life shatters overnight. She is saved by Santiago, a mysterious shapeshifter who has been watching her far longer than she realizes. As Santiago introduces her to the Veil, a hidden boundary separating the human world from creatures that feed on fear and guilt, Eliza learns the horrifying truth: her dreams are not harmless. They are lethal—and she may already be responsible for one death. Forced to rely on Santiago for protection, Eliza finds herself drawn to him despite the danger. As enemies close in from both sides of the Veil, trust, loyalty, and love are tested, and Eliza must decide whether to keep running from the truth—or face what she has become before the Veil demands its price.

[Do you desire to save your race from extinction? if so... accomplish a mission for me and I shall bring your race not only to salvation but also... supremacy!] Those were the words prompted in the mysterious screen in front of her as blood kept pouring out of her wounds, for Grayfia Lucifuge, a devil in the middle of the civil war against the Old Satan Faction; there could not be more treacherous yet hope-inducing words, it could be a trap, but it could not. She had the option to choose between 'Yes' and 'No'. For her who was at the edge of death with a family that needed support and a cause to fight for, there was not much of a choice. Little did she know, the mission she was tasked to do wouldn't be a simple or common one. In the faraway multiverse of Helius, one of the most powerful entities in endless existence slumbered atop his myriad treasures when his senses perceived something that shouldn't be possible. Intruders were common; Intruders remaining in his realm this long without perishing... were extremely rare. Upon appearing before the silver-haired maiden in odd attire, he huffed a breath frightening enough to make the strongest gods flee on the spot, but she remained in place - conflicted, but in place. "Before you perish, tell me... what is an ant like you doing in my realm? and why are you still alive?" Disbelief was concealed in his mighty voice. The maid thought a lot about what words had to come out of her lips for her to survive this hurdle, eventually, with her century-worth of experience in romance, she managed to find a fitting answer. "You're the Primordial Golden Dragon God, Richter-sama, right?" She asked with serenity. "Sama? I don't know about that... but you're correct. With your foot standing on my treasury realm, do you still dare ask about my identity, Demoness? you haven't-" "Richter-sama... my name is Grayfia Lucifuge and I'm here to conquer your lonely heart" "..." ** ** https://discord.gg/68Entk7Zs7 Feel free to join my discord server to have novel discussions with your peers, get illustrations and participate in polls!

Xu Yang died.At least,that was supposed to be the end.When he opened his eyes again,he found himself lying in a cold forest,his body covered in wet black fur.He tried to move,but froze when he saw four small paws in front of him.He was a cat.Not just any black cat—a low-level cat demon inside a cultivation novel he had once read. A novel he never finished. Before Xu Yang can even process his new life,a cold voice suddenly sounds in his head. [System activated.] "...What?" [Host has been assigned nine lives.] Xu Yang blinks. [These lives are not blessings.] His smile disappears. "...What do you mean?" [Every life has a destined death.] "Excuse me?" [Death is mandatory.] Xu Yang stares into the distance. "Then why give me nine lives?!" [You may ask again after your first death.] "That's even worse!" And that's how Xu Yang discovers his new life comes with one very unfair condition: He is not allowed to live. Every life has a different path.Every death brings him closer to something he cannot yet understand.And every time he awakens again,the world changes in ways that shouldn't be possible. People forget him. Memories disappear. Events occur that were never written in the novel. Even the System begins behaving strangely. [Warning.] [Original storyline deviation detected.] "Can you fix it?" [No.] "Can you tell me what's happening?" [No.] "Then what are you useful for?" [Survival assistance.] "I'm starting to dislike you." [Acknowledged.] Unfortunately,the System is the least of Xu Yang's problems. The cultivation world is full of sects that hunt demons,immortals who hide their own secrets,and forces that seem to know more about his fate than he does. And somewhere along the way,Xu Yang realizes something is terribly wrong. His deaths aren't random. Someone or something is making sure each life ends exactly when it should.But fate makes one mistake.It leaves Xu Yang with the ability to choose what he does before he dies.So he starts changing things.One small choice then another.Until the story he once knew becomes unrecognizable. And the System gives him a final warning: [Host.] [You were never supposed to survive this long.] Xu Yang looks at the road ahead. "Then I guess Heaven should have written a better ending." Nine lives.Death is guaranteed. But Xu Yang has never been very good at following rules. First time writing fantasy story! Hope you enjoy:)

The body resides in the Marvel universe, where sorcerers clash with heroes and villains alike. But across countless magical realms, clones awaken one after another. From Hogwarts to Fairy Tail, from the Lord of the Rings to Fate’s Holy Grail Wars, from Black Clover to Warcraft and even Jackie Chan Adventures— every world becomes another stage of conquest. These clones are not bound by race or gender. They share one will, one talent, one soul. Every spell learned, every battle won, every power seized is shared across all bodies— their strength stacking endlessly, their growth accelerating beyond imagination. When the sorcerers of Marvel tremble, when the mages of every realm unite to resist, one truth remains unshakable: “All clones are me. All power is mine.” The Multiverse has a new Sorcerer Supreme but this time, he exists everywhere at once.

They call him Ghost. A name whispered across battlefields, criminal syndicates, intelligence networks, and the darkest corners of the underworld. For seventeen years, war was the only home he knew.

And Miles Sterling returns. Armed with an old letter and fragments of childhood memories, Miles travels to Star Harbor searching for the family he lost seventeen years ago. He expects answers. Instead, he finds a mother who never stopped mourning him, younger siblings who don't know they have an older brother, and a world where guns, knives, and killing intent are considerably less useful than figuring out how to be someone's son again. But Miles didn't survive seventeen years in the shadows by being ordinary. Behind the quiet young man covered in scars lies Ghost, one of the world's deadliest mercenaries. Behind Ghost lies something even fewer people know. A billionaire who built his fortune from the shadows. And behind even that... There are identities Miles buried long ago. As he tries to build the peaceful life stolen from him, the past begins finding its way back. Old enemies emerge. Forgotten names return. Powerful families recognize him. Governments know more than they should. And secrets surrounding his father's death and his own disappearance slowly begin to surface. The problem is, Miles no longer has only himself to protect. He has a mother. Two Cute little siblings. A small family. And eventually, people he would burn the world down to keep safe. Miles Sterling retired because he was tired of war. Unfortunately for everyone standing in his way... Ghost never forgot how to fight.
