His only possession? A Transmutation Tablet—an artifact far beyond anything the game should contain.

His Transmutation Tablet isn’t ordinary—it has no EMC limit, can absorb interdimensional energy, and unlock new mods by devouring matter from other worlds. With it, Ian can turn anything into anything—fuel, food, armor, or even life itself. Armed with infinite resources in one hand and absolute creative power in the other, Ian begins transforming his lonely Skyblock into an empire of monsters, villagers, witches, and heroes, recruiting allies from every corner of the multiverse. From the Frozen Apocalypse to Slasher World, from Train to Busan to the realms of anime and legends, Ian’s journey becomes one of endless expansion—crafting, trading, and fighting his way toward godhood.

AN: This is a trial read for me. If you stumble upon this book somehow, feel free to read it...

In 2030, humanity faced its first true collapse…not by war, but by the sudden invasion of Nightcrawlers, creatures emerging from darkness itself with the desire to devour sunlight at all cost for their evolution. But, they could not absorb it directly since it was as deadly to them as to a shadow under the noonday sun. They could only absorb the sunlight from lifeforms or through signing a nocturnal contract to possess their bodies, providing them with direct sunlight immunity. Within twelve hours, over four billion people perished as Earth was split between eternal night and day. Just as extinction loomed, Holy Light Pillars descended from the heavens, purging one thousand cities from Nightcrawlers and offering humanity sanctuary under their divine light. A century later, in the Heliodor Region, an innocent child found his world turned upside down after two mysterious nightcrawlers invaded his home, slaughtered his parents, and ripped his eyes out of their sockets, leaving him permanently connected to the Shadow Dimension, the home ground of Nightcrawlers. Was it just a random feeding session for them, a planned assassination, or it goes deeper than this? Follow Levi’s journey as he weaves between darkness and light, chasing the truth hidden in both.

Beneath the suffocating shroud of steam and the relentless ticking of clockwork, where does the truth hide? In a world drowning in chaos, where can the oppressed find their salvation? Kenji was just an ordinary man until he woke up beneath a crimson moon, inhabiting the cold, broken body of a stranger named Alphard. This is no fairy tale reincarnation.

In this world, progression isn't bought with experience points; it is paid for in sacrifice. As corrupt religions, hidden factions, and silent gods pull the strings from the darkness, Kenji must decide: will he be the savior of this dying world, or merely the fool playing a part in a divine comedy?

Check Out: I Am Not A Pro Fourteen years ago, the youngest daughter of the legendary Sunaina family disappeared.

And after 14 long years,They finally found her.The only problem? They expected a cute little daughter who would run into their arms crying.Instead, they found Maya. -------★★------ Maya is an orphan living quietly in a small rented house in the countryside. She has no money. No powerful background no legendary bloodline. At least, that's what she thinks. She has no idea her birth certificate is basically a hidden treasure map.She is just trying to survive her ordinary life. Unfortunately...the universe looked at her peaceful existence and said: "That seems too easy. Let's add some chaos." --------- One day at school, Maya meets Mahi Sunaina—the terrifyingly influential head of the Sunaina family. Everything seems normal. Until Maya notices the bracelet on Mahi's hand.Her only thought was: "I think I am doomed." Wait a minute... why does this feel like a suspiciously important plot device? And just like that...Her quiet life ends. 'Congratulations, Maya.' You have unlocked the 'Secret Rich Family Daughter' achievement. Rewards include: - Confused relatives. - Endless family drama. - And absolutely no peaceful days. ---------- The Sunaina family finally gets their missing daughter back.But they soon realize something terrifying. The little girl they lost 14 years ago is gone, the person standing before them is someone completely different. Maya is intelligent, she is suspicious of everyone.Her trust level is lower than a villain's chance of staying dead after a dramatic final battle. The family wanted their daughter back. They got a mystery instead. ______ This world may look like a beautiful romance fantasy. A world filled with destiny, miracles and characters who somehow always meet at the perfect dramatic moment. But Maya knows the truth, She knows how this story ends. So, she has one simple response:"No." -------- From now on, everyone is a piece on the board. Family members? Potential allies. Enemies? Potential problems. People with suspicious smiles? Definitely problems. -------- Maya doesn't want to be a hero. Unfortunately, fate has other plans. And fate has never learned that forcing a stubborn person into a story usually creates a bigger disaster. ★★★★★★ NOTE : Attention, dear readers. Before you start searching for romance, love triangles or a collection of handsome characters fighting for Maya's attention........Please stop. The romance department has been permanently closed. The harem application form has been lost, rejected and permanently deleted. Please do not send requests; she is already busy managing disasters. TAG: Female MC SCHEDULE: 1–2 Chapters / Week CHAPTER LENGTH: 3000–4500 words ----------- WARNING: Maya is not a hero. She is not a perfect angel who forgives everyone after one emotional speech. She is not the kind of protagonist who sees someone crying and immediately says, "Don't worry, I will save you!" Her first thought is more likely: "How is this my problem?" She is cynical, complicated, and definitely not a walking sunshine generator. She may even make you ask: "Am I supposed to support her plan or call someone?" If you want a sweet protagonist who helps everyone in trouble......This is probably not your cup of tea. But if you want to watch a girl with a complicated past challenge destiny, family drama, and the ridiculous rules of a fantasy world....Welcome. The chaos begins here. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ I am a new writer, so please forgive any spelling or grammar mistakes. I am still learning, improving, and trying to make this story better with every chapter.Writing a story is easy...Until grammar appears as the final boss. I hope you enjoy the chaos.

“So you’re telling me I can’t pick the One Piece world? Why not? Did I already choose it in some past life or something? And what does that even have to do with me now? Alright, fine… as long as you get me out of this damn prison, I’ll pick another world. Wait—did you just say your name is The Divine Network of Interesting Dreams? That’s… weird. But hey, I’ve got a dream you might actually like: creating a Naruto manga inside the Naruto world, and making the ninjas there stop fighting real wars… only to start virtual wars over my manga!” ⸻ Note: This novel is the legitimate sister of my other work: Creating Manga of One Piece in Pirates World Become My Ultimate Goal! It features the same protagonist, but in a different timeline

In the elf kingdom Saltus, on the outskirts of the capital Medio. Baoba and his squad are departing to start the grand hunt. They have been preparing a long time, while the Lord, their sworn enemy, grew in power. Against them, a human team, in the same conditions, try to take them by speed. If the humans win, it's the end of Saltus, and if no one kills it, it's the end of the world. "I get that, but why's it have to be me ?" Baoba is a dark elf, and the only reason he enrolled in the first place was to get a place to sleep. Unfortunately, it turns out he's the best. "Please let this be under a year..." We follow him and his team as they struggle through a densely populated cursed forest, mostly trying not to die, and, maybe, fulfill their purpose. --------------------------------------------------- Big thanks to Louis Iske @1aim_studios for the cover art.

Zenon is a young man from Spezia, a high school student living a cold, routine life ,and faces the world with a dry, distant logic.

When Fantalia Doree was small she started with a big bang. A deadly killer who is at large commiting crimes she carve her victims and leaves her signature PFK making it look like a work of art which it was. The thrill of hunting down her preys makes her all the more daring at playing the game of cat and mouse with the detectives. The worst part is that publicly she was so angelic in all her looks and behavior that no one would ever think of the possibility as her being the killer, but then again who would ever consider a child with the looks and temperament of an angel to be so monstrous. For years she grew even more angelic and beautiful and still as careful as ever until that fateful day when a handsome detective stopped by and asked her advice. She could feel the pull and the way her heart swell whenever he looked at her and asked a simple question, that joy and longing at the same time and right then she knew there was something about him she had to see and she wanted him too. Special Detective Justice Swarie was assigned to the case because of his outstanding recommendation and expertise. He was also someone who loves the hunt but never got satisfaction. However before he was even assigned to PFK he was keeping an eye on it. It was the biggest case and that leaves him obsessed he was filled with excitement, a case that crawls under his skin. With each new PFK case there was even more exhilaration even more than he thought was possible. Once he had a brief run in with Fantalia Doree and found great comfort in her above expectation company. One thing led to another and before they know it he started visiting the forensic doctor regularly. Will Fantalia Doree kill Justice Swarie or will he turn her in when find out that his sweet forensic doctor who he treasure so much is his PFK he is hunting. ***SNIPPET*** "Senior, have a look at this", the forensic pathology team leader said in a rushed voice. " We found that the PFK on the body not only have a cursive style but look," There on the printed paper showing a picture of the bran on the body was tiny words that made the outline of the bold three letter signature. "This....!", Shocked and also excited at what he saw detective Swarie quickly masked his emotions carefully and said in a somber tone to no one in particular. "About time we got a lead don't you think?" He took up his coat with completely careful movements making sure not to show the nervous shake of his hand and turned to his team. " Now we have a new lead," he announced, "We need to find all mechanics who specializes in delicate inlaid designs, we also need to consults the professors at Groudil Collage of the arts so we can get a list of students who might have a possibility of creating this design. Any question?" No one said anything. "DISMISSED." They all got up and went about the task at hand. Leaving the police station they failed to realized that on the other side of the street was an ordinary looking inconspicuous car with a grinning woman looking at a tablet with an earpiece in her ear. She was zooming in on detective Justice Swarie and her eyes glazed over when she realized that he too had the same look of a hunter. 'yes that's the look I've been waiting for.... finally' she thought. She giggled like a love sick teenager then laughed right out over what she just discovered. Not only did they find out that her signature was made with inlaid words but they are going to see the old madam. ' That woman is even worst than I am.' she thought. "Ha ha ha ha.....they are in for a real turn around this time, I have to stop by with a gift for dinner." She drove away without another glance at the detectives knowing full well that they are right where they started and that her mentor will be so pleased with her she just might get the special tools that has been made with the outmost untraceable accuracy. 'WHO SHOULD I EXTERMINATE AS AN APPETIZER' She though looking around with the grin still in place.
