The Violent Girl Group Is Beat

When two 21-year-old Londoners — Richard and Derek — cross paths during a freak rainstorm on Oxford Street, they witness something impossible: a soul-devouring Shadow Whisperer stalking the city. Marked by the entity, the unlikely pair is forced to become paranormal detectives in a hidden world of ghosts, curses, and ancient evil lurking beneath London’s streets. Guided only by a cryptic old bartender, they must master strange new powers they never asked for while investigating the supernatural crimes plaguing Whitechapel, Soho, and the East End. But as their bond grows and their abilities awaken, they realize the greatest threat may not be the monsters they hunt… but the darkness awakening inside themselves.

At the beginning of all things, there was only the Void. Cold, endless, and suffocating in its silence. No light. No warmth. No life. Then, something changed. From the heart of nothingness, two flames were born. The First Flame burned golden-red, radiant and fierce, pulsing like a living sun. The Second Flame shimmered silver, dimmer, colder, yet no less powerful in its quiet intensity. The Void, stirred by their existence, lashed out in fear, seeking to snuff them out before they could grow and lit up the darkness. But the flames stood together. United, they drove the Void back and sealed it away, carving order from chaos and bringing a fragile peace to existence. For a very long time, balance endured. Until one flame betrayed the other... Setting the Void free once again, threatening to swallow them both. *** This a story about a angel boy who wishes revenge against all monsters because his loved ones died because of them. He embarks on a journey with his guardian sword that has the ability to nullify magic. **** This story takes place in a dark souls like world where humans fight harrowing creatures and consume their souls to rank up their class. The world is slowly decaying and being consumed by the corruption. In order to reduce corruption, people had to challenge what you call a 'void seed' that takes them to a different realm.

It's funny how you keep living in a world that was never meant for you... a world where my kind are hunted and slaughtered like animals. A world to leave in or die. A world with secrets buried at its core. A world worth saving or destroying. A world overrun by the enemy. Yeah. That's it. Welcome to my world.

She opens her eyes inside a glass pod, surrounded by flowers that have grown over everything including her. She has no memory. No past. Not even a name until she finds it etched into the pod she just crawled out of: Ashe. Everyone here woke up the same way — no answers, no origin, nothing but the word the locals use for what they are. Emergents. Whatever that means. Then the walls start writing to her. The written voice calls itself Seven, a survivor who knows things about her she hasn't figured out yet. Meanwhile, far above, a colossal vessel drifts across the sky in the same slow arc, again and again, as if waiting for something. Ashe doesn't know what she is yet. But the world is starting to show her things it isn't showing anyone else.

She arrives in the city hoping to disappear. After her older brother's sudden death, Katherine leaves behind the only home she has ever known, carrying nothing but grief and the belief that distance might quiet the past. In a place where no one knows her name, she builds a life in silence-working mornings in a small café on the edge of a busy financial district, learning how to exist without being seen. Before she leaves, she finds a hidden box in her brother's room. Inside are letters she was never meant to see. Most of them are simple at first-ordinary words, familiar handwriting, fragments of care she doesn't fully let herself read. She only opens a few before closing the box again, leaving the rest untouched as if keeping them sealed might keep something else from unraveling. In the city, life settles into routine. Early mornings. Familiar faces. The comfort of being unknown. It should be enough. But it isn't. A man begins to pass through her world each day-always at the same time, always just out of reach of notice. He does not speak to her. He does not look at her like she is anything more than part of the background. And she does not recognize him. Not once. And yet, something about his presence begins to linger where memory should be clear. As fragments of her brother's past begin to surface in small, unsettling ways, Katherine starts to understand that distance does not always mean escape-and some things follow you quietly, long after you think you've left them behind.

Tjer survived Kage. A city where nothing new can be learned. Stay too long… and you will lose yourself. He escaped with only two things left: his sister, and the sword his father left him. All he wishes for is a better life—a normal life—but most especially for his little sister, who had never met the true versions of her parents. For that he makes use of his essence, a power that came from within, a power that shapes him—a power bigger than he can fathom. "Who am I again…?" A voice. One that has watched his entire life. It remembers nothing about itself… Yet the longer it stays with Tjer, the more it regains, and the more Tjer loses. Neither his past, nor his future lets him find that life he desires.

Ryo Kenzaki was good at being invisible. Just another high schooler, keeping his head down and waiting for each day to end. Then a star fell from the sky. When Ryo pulls a dying woman from the crater it leaves behind, he learns the world he knows is already breaking. Beyond it lies the Hunting Realm—a place where monsters are born from fallen Hunters, and something is beginning to push through. Hunted by a creature he cannot understand, Ryo is dragged to a sanctuary between worlds and forced into a choice that was never really his: take up a Kizugami, a living blade forged from wounds, or die before dawn. But the blade doesn’t obey. It judges. As the weapon begins to search his soul, Ryo is pulled into a war he never asked to join—one shadowed by an impossible Eye in the sky, a relentless Kaimon on his trail, and an ending that may already have been decided. Ryo never wanted to be a Hunter. But if becoming one is the only way to protect what remains, he’ll have to answer a far more dangerous question: When the world strips everything from him, can he still stand as himself once more?

Hsuya’s sharp brain finally cracked the mystery of his missing parents. Turns out they were from another world called Alexia and had slipped into Earth years ago. Upon their disappearance, he came across a System specifically built only for him, granting him unique skills and a way to travel between worlds. While Earth’s lack of mana limits his magical abilities, Hsuya uses his cold logic and dual-world advantage to crush every obstacle in his path. Posing as a background student at a magic academy, he secretly builds a hidden organization in Alexia and tries to achieve total supremacy. But like they say, “great power comes with great responsibilities.” Is the reason behind Hsuya gaining this immediate power really a coincidence, or is there something more behind it? Regardless of the truth, his motto remains the same: “I will obey no one ,not even the Gods ” ********* A/N – The first few chapters might indicate that the MC is too OP and the story is one-sided, but believe me, as you start reading later chapters, you will find out the reasons and logic behind everything. Is it a harem story? – Not really. Although Hsuya will be surrounded by many female characters, in his eyes, they are all just pieces on his board. If you love the type of Light Novels where the MC does what he wants and hates being ordered by someone—then you will probably love Hsuya's personality. It's my first time writing an LN and English is not my native language, so don't be too hard on me guys :)

In a world fractured by war and the lingering scars of past horrors, two powerful factions, the Black Tower and the Revengers, battle for dominance, each with their own vision of the future. The Black Tower, an enigmatic and ruthless organization that manipulates the dark arts, seeks to control the flow of power in the world, bringing entire villages to ruin and claiming the lives of those who stand against them. Their influence reaches across lands, spreading fear and chaos, as they target anyone they deem a threat to their control. On the other side, the Revengers, a group born from the ashes of betrayal and destruction, work tirelessly to dismantle the Black Tower’s reign. Formed by those who have lost loved ones to the Tower’s ruthless practices, the Revengers stand as a symbol of resistance and vengeance, seeking to erase the remnants of the Black Tower’s terror. However, even their strength and resolve are tested as the Tower’s power grows stronger, and their own members are forced to face the horrors of their past. The battle between these two factions is one of shadows and fire, where survival means more than just strength—it demands sacrifice, loyalty, and the will to fight against the darkness that seeks to consume the world. As the conflict escalates, the foundations of society tremble, and even those with the purest of intentions find themselves questioning how far they are willing to go to achieve victory.

There are secrets the world chose to forget. Darian just stumbled upon one. Raised on stories of heroes and sacrifice, he dreamed of a clear path: climbing the ranks of the Adventurer's Guild, exploring dungeons, and making a name for himself among the Empire's finest. But the world is bigger, darker, and far more complicated than any book ever taught him. The history everyone knows, the one carved into statues and told in every village, might not be the real history. The heroes he admired his whole life could be hiding a truth that someone spent centuries burying. And Darian just found the first clue. A world to explore. Monsters that defy all logic. Dungeons that hide more than treasure. Truths buried for centuries. And an adventure that's only just begun. Do you dare to discover it alongside Darian?

That strike was supposed to… be his end. When the sword fell upon his neck before a crowd shouting his name as traitor and demon, he did not beg for mercy… nor did he try to flee. He simply smiled. But… death did not come as it should. Instead of the end, he found himself in another world— A world where strength obeys no logic, where laws do not follow the patterns humans know, a world seemingly written to be broken… not to be understood. Now, in his body, a strange power flows… A power that cannot be obeyed, only resisted… and then subdued. Every sensation, every movement, every thought… Reminds him of one truth: He is no longer as he was. And this world… will not remain as it is. Here, there is no absolute good… nor clear evil. Only struggle… between those who wield power and those consumed by it. But for him— This was not a new beginning. It was an opportunity. An opportunity to understand… What makes the world break. And a more dangerous opportunity— To reshape it.

In a world where gods are created through evil and cannibalism, blessing their subjects and sending them to war… Sammael—an abomination of two cursed races, both persecuted for their link to the fallen angel Lucifer.

But to keep it… to let the ones he loves live in peace… he must kill every god humanity has ever worshipped. And yet… isn’t Lucifer a god too?

WARNING: Some mature content!!! 18+ This is what you call Urbantasy.. Fantasy in an urban setting with a strong female lead -- a story riddled in mystery, magic, and a lot of sass. ======= CHAPTER 1 sneak peek! ======= The air between them tightened like a rope. Cael leaned closer, head tilting slightly, pulling at her waist again, smugness softened into something sharper and quieter. His eyes flicked to her lips then back to her eyes as if asking for permission he didn't need. Hunger of a different kind pumped through Cael. The hunger that Galathea unmistakably recognized as it pressed hard against her lower abs, forcing through the fabric as if it can tear through. At the sensation, Galathea's mouth parted before she could stop it. Her whole body screamed at her to either shove him away or close the last inch between their lips herself. ===== SYNOPSIS ===== Galathea Brooks spent her life surviving quietly -- counting inventory, enforcing rules, keeping her head down inside one of the most powerful art institutions in the city. It's a simple life because paint doesn't talk; power doesn't notice people like her. and names are just names. -- That is... until a painting remembered her. When ancient works buried beneath Artemis Art Gallery began to respond to Galathea's presence, she becomes the center of the system that's older than the building itself. A system that cataloged her long before she knew it existed. Her name is not a coincidence. It is a KEY. Cael Alexander, on the other hand, has always understood control. As Artemis' immaculate but dangerous CEO, he manages secrets like no other. He knows the gallery and its bowels more than anyone. He knows what's hidden; he knows what's awaken. What he didn't expect, however, was Galathea. As archaic works of art start to stir, boundaries fracture -- between observer and artifact, power and possession, restraint and desire. Every choice Galathea makes draws her deeper into fate that doesn't want permission... only acknowledgement. Mind you, awakenings don't ask when you're ready.

Arin has fallen into a world that knows no mercy, where none of the rules he once relied on apply.

He must become an unpredictable force—or be swallowed forever by the unknown that devours all. This is not merely a journey of survival—it is a journey of self-discovery, a confrontation with supernatural forces, and a test of what it truly means to be human in a world where the rules twist without mercy.
