Notice!—I'm writing a different version of Lynn and Arezu's story—Arezu: Beyond World's End Please give it a read and add it to your library while waiting for the update of Days of Dungeon. --- A laid-back warrior who is patient enough to tolerate her audacity pairs up with a mischievous mage who is extremely curious and follows him everywhere. Together, they embark on simple quests, but somehow always end up on strange adventures. At first glance, they appear to be just a typical pair of adventurers, but both hide their own secrets. His is a sin he intends to bury with his death, while hers is a curse she will carry into her next life. Although they have come to terms with their fates, the discoveries they make during their time in dungeons will ultimately reveal their secrets. PoruShark Writer's Note: What to expect. 1. An annoyingly lovable female lead—like your moody girlfriend. 2. An honest-to-goodness male lead—like your dream boyfriend. 3. A slow reveal of the main characters’ backstories. 4. The writing might change from good to worst—worst to good—but this lazy and lousy author will try to improve. 5. Just like the title says—lots of simple quests that seem like basic fantasy stories, but lead to strange adventures. Please support the novel with gifts and power stones.

—WEBNOVEL SPIRITY AWARDS 2026 ENTRY— [You Have a New Quota!] Hello, Servant.   It's time to feed your Lord.   You understand, don't you? Blood Quota — 0/????? ml   Time Remaining: 04:00:00 [WARNING]  If the required quota is not met, the automatic consumption protocol will activate.   The System is hungry. To feed itself, it will devour a random part of your body. --- When rifts tore open between Earth and the Underworld, humanity found salvation in the Sentinels—warriors bonded to magical rings, gifted with the power to fight back the endless tide of monsters. Blake should have been one of the greatest. Born into a legendary bloodline. Raised in privilege. Expected to inherit a legacy of power. But Blake has a problem. He can't use magic. And worse—he's terrified. Of monsters. Of pain. Of the very combat that defines what it means to survive. When his father delivers an ultimatum that will exile him from everything he's ever known, Blake is forced into a final exam he has no hope of passing. Then the monsters come. His team dies. And in his final moments, as something monstrous devours him whole, a crimson window appears in the darkness: [Do you accept the Blood Pact?] Now, Blake is no longer human. He is a Servant—bound to an ancient entity that feeds on blood and cares nothing for his survival. Every few days, a quota appears. Every quota demands thousands of milliliters of blood. If he fails to deliver, the System doesn't negotiate. It takes payment from his own body. Piece by piece. While the world celebrates Sentinels as humanity's protectors, Blake must become something else entirely—a hunter in the shadows, stealing blood to survive another day. In a world where heroes fight monsters to save lives… Blake must kill them to keep his own. --- How much of yourself would you sacrifice to survive? How far would you go when failure means losing everything—one piece at a time?

FATED TO HIS DARKNESS "Are you trying to gain my attention?" he asked, a note of cynicism and gave her his devilish smile. ______________________________________________ "You should be kissed, and often, and by someone who knows how... In a world where vampires and witches secretly coexist with humans, there lived a fragile and timid vampire named Aliena. Her life took a tragic turn when her mother left her, leaving her in the care of her cruel stepfamily, the Anwars, who despised her for being different. Aliena was not like other vampires. She possessed no remarkable abilities or strengths, often the target of her stepsisters' mockery and mistreatment. Forced to live in secrecy among humans in the Mundane universe, her life was a never-ending nightmare. But destiny had different plans for Aliena. The vampire kingdom of Nacrifa, in the mysterious realm known as the Dark Universe, was on the brink of war. The current king, summoned all vampires in the Mundane universe back. Upon her arrival in Nacrifa, Aliena was introduced to a world of darkness, magic, and intrigue. The royal court was a complex web of vampire politics, where alliances were fragile, and betrayals were commonplace. Amidst the chaos, Aliena found herself inexplicably drawn to the enigmatic Crown Prince, Sebastian. He was not a pure vampire but a rare hybrid, born of both vampire and witch bloodlines, and carried an air of mystery and danger. As Sebastian and Aliena spent more time together, their connection deepened, and a forbidden romance blossomed. But the path to their love was not smooth, as both their worlds were threatened by external forces. Dark creatures and powerful adversaries sought to tear apart the kingdom of Nacrifa, and Aliena discovered her unique abilities could be the key to victory. Yet, the mysteries didn't end there. The Crown Prince harbored a hidden identity that even his closest confidants were unaware of. Secrets from the past began to unravel, and their intertwined destinies became entangled in a tapestry of love, magic, and danger. As the war loomed over Nacrifa, Aliena had to find the strength within herself to rise above her weaknesses and embrace her true self. In a world where strength came in many forms, she had to prove that even the weakest vampire had a role to play in the kingdom's survival.

Raziel died a saint, slaughtered in his own cathedral the moment a Player fell from the sky, labeled his world a "Server," and reduced him to nothing more than a prologue NPC.

An ordinary night. A simple room. And a joking conversation with an AI. But one chant— not a joke— changes everything. When the boy regains consciousness, he is no longer in his own world. Not the sky. Not the body. Not even the name. A world where gods are dead… but not completely. Where power isn’t divided into levels, but into personal choices, adaptation, and cost. Where every human is different— and every power can also be a curse. A mysterious holo-ring worn on his head doesn’t just hide him— it shows him memories that are not his. A mother who is already dead. A darkness that is still watching. And a truth that may be the greatest crime of all. He is not “the chosen one.” He did not come to become a hero. He came only to survive in this world. But some paths leave only two choices in the end— either you are erased from existence, or… Exist Like a Stranger.

In the chaotic, motorcycle-filled culinary jungle of São Paulo, **Luciana "Lu" Santos** is the adorable owner of the viral dessert shop, "Lu’s Sweet Stop." With an apron that always smells of fresh cream and a smile that curves like a crescent moon, she has a knack for turning angry customer reviews into sweet interactions. Her comment section is constantly flooded with praise: *"Lu is too cute!"* and *"Her pastries heal the soul."* But no one knows that this seemingly harmless woman is actually "Queen L," the invisible monarch of the food delivery industry. She controls big data, invests in logistics chains, and ruthlessly crushes competitors with precise trend predictions. Her secret weapon? A supernatural ability gained from a past car accident called **"Heartbeat Rewind."** Whenever her heart pounds with intense attraction toward someone, time automatically jumps back **5 seconds**. This allows her to "reboot" critical moments, though it often leaves her stuck in awkward loops trying to save herself from embarrassment. Enter **Lucas Silva**. As the CEO of Silva Tech—the giant behind the city’s delivery infrastructure—he is cold, elite, and possesses an off-the-charts IQ. Known in the skyscrapers of Faria Lima as the "Ice King," he develops cutting-edge AI dispatch systems. However, privately, he is a sugar addict who hides a collection of shoujo manga on his phone. Lucas possesses a similar ability: he can actively rewind the last **3 seconds**, but he is limited to three uses per day. Using it gives him a migraine, so he habitually saves his precious "three seconds" for cutthroat business negotiations. But everything changes when he meets Lu. Suddenly, his daily quota is wasted on correcting failed flirtation attempts. For instance, when he leans in to smell the vanilla on her wrist and gets caught, she triggers a "Heartbeat Rewind" (5 seconds back), and he panics and uses his ability (3 seconds back) to change his opening line. Starting as business partners, their relationship is a mix of public bickering and hidden chemistry. - **The Glitch:** When Lu packs desserts, her heart skips a beat, triggering a rewind, resulting in her accidentally packing three extra cakes. - **The Heroics:** When Lucas defends her too charmingly during a negotiation, she gets flustered and rewinds time, resetting the whole scene, leaving Lucas internally screaming that he wasted his best line. **The Business Arc:** Together, they join forces to take down the predatory rival platform, "TurboEats." Lu uses her 5 seconds to optimize delivery routes through São Paulo’s notorious traffic, while Lucas uses his 3 seconds to instantly patch code bugs. They are a power couple—invincible side-by-side. **The Romance Arc:** The story is packed with high-sugar, hilarious moments: a "social death" incident involving stepping on a skirt at the Liberdade street market, iconic scent-smelling scenes, and love letters hidden in delivery app metadata. Even the side characters bring the charm: the goofy *motoboy* (courier) Rafa and the sharp-tongued Vivi provide comedic relief, while the supply chain mogul and the operations director offer a gentle, healing subplot. **The Climax:** Fate weaves its web as it is revealed that both abilities stem from the same childhood car accident. Lucas has spent his life looking for the little girl who once comforted him with a slice of cheesecake. In the final chapter, the sweetness level explodes. Lucas whispers the ultimate line: *"Lu, I’ve spent my life chasing you in 3-second bursts. Now, we are finally in sync."* It is a romance that chases love across time—full of sweetness, laughter, and healing moments that will make every reader’s heart skip a beat.

If I’m already the villain… I might as well rewrite the story. Waking up as Shigaraki Tomura years before canon should have meant one thing—eventually becoming All For One’s successor and the future enemy of hero society. He has no intention of letting that happen. With a newly awakened system and knowledge of what’s coming, he decides to take control of his own fate. Instead of blindly following the path laid out for Shigaraki, he begins building something different: influence in the underworld, a growing circle of villains… and a second identity meant to walk straight into U.A. His first step comes during the Sludge Villain incident, where he publicly intervenes, defeats the villain, and introduces himself to the world as someone who stands on the side of those labeled “evil.” Heroes see a dangerous new figure. All Might sees a threat to society’s ideals. But to the forgotten and rejected, he might be something else entirely. This is the story of a Shigaraki who refuses to be a pawn—and intends to change hero society from both sides.

Synopsis When Voldemort dies, a mysterious voice offers him a second chance. He accepts without hesitation. But rebirth comes with a twist. Instead of returning as the feared Dark Lord, Tom Riddle awakens in 1991 as Tamara Riddle — a girl bound to an infuriating Virtue System that rewards kindness and punishes malice with electric shocks. Murderous intent? Shocked. Cruelty? Penalized. Dark rituals? Absolutely forbidden. To grow stronger, she must accumulate virtue points — by helping others. Forced to smile sweetly while plotting world domination, Tamara quickly discovers that being good is far more complicated than being evil. Worse, people genuinely like her. Teachers praise her. Classmates trust her. Even Harry Potter defends her. And the more she plays the part of a kind, brilliant witch… the more natural it becomes. By the time her true identity surfaces, no one believes it. “How could Tamara possibly be related to the Dark Lord?” Harry snaps. Tamara only sighs. “Sorry, Harry,” she says softly. “He’s already the Dark Lord.” Only this time… the world may not need one.
