The Sixth Member of the Police Academy in Detective Conan [No female lead. Master of disguises. The male protagonist is a growth-type character who develops over time rather than becoming overpowered instantly.] As one of the six members of the police academy group, Sasajima Ritsu embarks on the “point of no return” by going undercover in the Black Organization. However, he never expected to gain Gin’s appreciation and even end up becoming close enough with Vodka to call each other brothers. Wait a second… I’m an undercover agent, right? Gin, snap out of it—stop always looking out for me! And wait—how did it come to this? My subordinates are undercover agents, and even my colleagues are undercover agents too? P.S. This story has no romantic pairing (no CP). There are many foreshadowing elements, and the author will do their best to resolve them all!

Seventeen-year-old Zeph Chrono discovers a strange, glowing, water-damaged book washed ashore on his way home from school. The book was created by a godlike entity simply known as “The white figure,” the overseer of a mysterious trial. After a series of world-altering events, Zeph manages to make it home, but when he wakes up, he realizes something terrifying. Time hasn't moved forward. Instead, he's forced to relive the exact same day. Trapped in a time loop, Zeph must complete a specific challenge each day to progress to the next. With seven increasingly difficult challenges standing between him and freedom, failure isn't the end of the road, but it could cost him everything.

It all happened in an instant, like a switch had suddenly been flipped. All across the world, a virus began turning people into zombie-like infected. Among the remaining safe zones are the Golden City, where life continues as if the pandemic never occurred, and Stadium Town, where what’s left of a criminal empire continues to operate. While the Golden City’s military conducts missions beyond the wall, scientists inside work desperately to develop a cure. Instead of answers, they discover things that should not be possible. The infection doesn’t follow the rules of biology. It shows traits no ordinary virus could ever possess. And with the arrival of two mysterious girls that have no pigmentation, life in the Golden City enters a new phase. The infected begin to change, and the nights bring horrors its people have never faced before.

Serena looked up into his eyes, those fierce green eyes blazed with anger or so she thought for these were not the eyes of any mortal man, these were the eyes of a demon who wanted to claim her soul for himself alone

One day, Jane woke up very late in the morning, only to go to bed even later that night. Then one day became weeks. Her mother called it a phase. The school called it a disease. The solution: a transfer, to a place that opened after dark. And of course, only a school for vampires would run on such an unusual schedule. Jane didn’t realize it until the welcoming party, when she got chased, nearly died, and had her heart broken as she saw who her savior was... ---------------------------------What you can expect ------------------------------- • Vampires, witches, and everything that comes with them. • Elite academy setting. • Fighting scenes. They are the worst to write but I can’t bring myself to skip them. • Drama. Any kind of drama but it won’t make you tired as I like to solve them fast. • A bit of romance but I don't intend to make it the focus. • Mystery. Things will move faster later.

- Disclaimer: Chapters are long and detailed. Slower pacing and character driven narrative. The Last Step is an epic fantasy spanning years of chapters, where history, ideology, science, and humanity collide in a world ruled by magic. Once, humanity stood at the bottom of existence. Magicless. Powerless. A race hunted to the brink of extinction. To the world, humans were little more than intelligent animals, fit to be enslaved, toyed with, or discarded. Their survival was never expected. Yet somewhere in forgotten history... someone changed that fate. Now, 7,000 years later, humanity stands beside the very races that once ruled over them, wielding magic that should have never been theirs. Few remember how that miracle came to be. Kaiser Everhart is one of them. Not as a chosen hero. Not with divine blessings. Not with overwhelming strength. Only with a mind that refuses to end his story. Born into a life that could only be described as hell, Kaiser Everhart grew up believing humanity was selfish, cruel, and undeserving of faith. All he ever wanted was a quiet life. A place where he could finally understand what happiness felt like. Instead, the world refused to leave him alone. Drawn into a continent where primordial beasts roam forgotten lands, where dragonics shape empires, elves preserve ancient civilizations, demons struggle against a curse of their own existence, beastkin, dwarves, and fairies each reign over fields humanity could never hope to rival, Kaiser finds himself standing among races that have mastered magic, divinity, and power over thousands of years. Yet the deeper his journey goes, the more one question begins to consume everything: Can humanity be saved... if humanity itself is its greatest enemy? This is not a story about becoming the strongest. It is a story about changing the world one impossible step at a time. Long before Kaiser Everhart was born, another man walked a remarkably similar path. One who devoted everything to humanity... Only to lose faith in it. As the past slowly awakens, two ideals begin moving toward an inevitable collision: The man who abandoned hope in humanity. And the man still searching for a reason to believe. Somewhere between them stands Kaiser Everhart, unaware that every step he takes is leading him toward the one person who understands him better than anyone else ever could. A slow-burning saga of politics, philosophy, science, war, romance, psychological manipulation, civilization-building, and the fragile hope that even the weakest race can create its own future. The road is long. The answers are earned. And every step matters. Discord: https://discord.gg/3tRarQqWJj

#WSA2026 PS: We’re getting close to 800 members on Discord! ========= Yuzuki thought it was just another pastime from his casework, proofreading a half-finished fantasy webnovel. But when he woke up the next day, he was no longer in his world. He was inside the story… as a disposable extra. The world he now walks is beautiful, brutal, and broken. Its plot is incomplete. And looming over it all is a calamity so catastrophic that even the protagonist would have failed to stop it. Driven only by his cunning and spite towards this twisted fate, his only choice is to stake his existence in a world on the verge of collapse. But how long can a nameless extra outwit the fate of an unfinished novel? How is he going to survive in this ruined world? If the story dies, so does he. "Well, curse the protagonist.

In the neon-drenched underbelly of New York City, a high-stakes poker game at the Emperor’s Bar ends in murder when Jason, a charismatic gambler with secrets to spare, is found dead in an alley, poisoned with aconite. Detective Jeremiah Fog and his relentless squad plunge into a tangled web of suspects—each a player from Jason’s final table, each with a motive as sharp as a dealer’s cut. There’s Michael, a desperate lawyer drowning in debt; Rowland, a volatile cabbie with blood on his knuckles; Hilary, a broke musician betting his last chord; Jang Lee, a chef with mob whispers trailing him; Brenda, a Miami stripper too close to Jason’s heart; Boris, an ex-soldier whose silence screams danger; Javier, a courier carrying more than packages; Bertrand, a curator with a penchant for poisons; Doherty, a clerk hiding a razor wit; and Sidney, the grieving waitress whose love for Jason blurs the line between victim and suspect. As the squad dissects bar webcam footage and unravels alibis, the clock ticks toward a chilling truth: the killer dealt their hand that night, and the poison was no bluff. With every frame revealing new betrayals, Jeremiah must outplay a mastermind who’s always two steps ahead—before the next card falls and the body count doubles. In this deadly game, trust is a gamble, and triumph comes at a lethal price.

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

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top! Note: The novel is a gritty version of the typical hunter/awakener novels with a beast twist, which I hope you will enjoy Discord Server: https://discord.gg/c34nURr72W P.S.

John figured death was supposed to mean peace at last. His whole life got wrecked by heartbreak and betrayal and all that loss, so the grave ought to just end it there, right? But no, he wakes in the body of a child, dragged into the clutches of the Obsidian Covenant — a secret order that forges children into weapons. At first, all he wanted was survival. But surrounded by others just as broken, John finds himself pulled into their struggle, swearing to protect what little hope they have left. The god who put him here watches with cruel amusement, torturing him just for the sake of it...or maybe not. If John wants revenge, or even a chance at freedom, he’ll have to rise through the world of Cassiopeia, uncover the secrets binding him to this place, and turn his anger into something sharper than any blade. Peace is gone. Now there’s only the vow: to kill the god. *** I would like to say This story is kind of like a chimera. so, expect it to shift and evolve as the journey unfolds, never bound to a single genre. and although the narrative introduces darker themes, the story evolves beyond them to explore resilience and growth. *** New chapter of The Uncrowned Paragon drops every week—at least one within 7 days, sometimes more. Thanks for reading and stay tuned.
