Jin Yeong lived an ordinary life. He worked an ordinary job, went home to an ordinary apartment, and was the kind of man nobody ever remembered. That all changed the day the sky cracked open over Seoul. A voice echoed across the world, mocking humanity's weakness. Monsters flooded the streets, cities fell in a single night, and every survivor was given a skill to fight back. Some awakened the power to control fire, lightning, or the earth itself. Jin awakened Limitless Weapon Mastery, a skill that let him use any weapon at its full potential and nothing more. Without magic or special powers, he seemed to have drawn the weakest hand of all. But in a world where survival meant fighting with whatever was within reach, Jin soon discovered that his skill held far more than anyone expected. With nothing but his skill and the will to protect the people beside him, Jin began his journey through a broken world, where anything he holds can kill.

In the far reaches of space, where empires rise and fall in silence, a rogue crew aboard a ship unlike any other carves its path through the void. Their leader — enigmatic, dangerous, and driven by something deeper than conquest — leaves a trail of havoc wherever he goes. But this isn’t just a story of rebellion. It’s a story of purpose. Of fate. Of whether the stars themselves can be bent to one man’s will. TARTARUSIOS blends high-stakes action with mystery and mythic undertones. The ship is more than metal — it’s legend. The crew, more than criminals — they’re chosen. And as their journey unfolds, the question remains: will they reach their goal, or will destiny rewrite their course?

Sir Mordred was many things. The False King. The Traitor. The Treacherous Knight. He was the man destined to destroy King Arthur's kingdom. And in the end, he succeeded. But victory meant nothing as he lay dying on the bloody fields of Camlann. All Mordred had ever wanted was one thing: to be acknowledged by his father. Instead, Arthur saw only the monster history had promised him. Then Mordred died and he expected hell. But he woke to an alarm clock. And that was only the beginning of his problems. Reborn as the youngest son of Arthur Pendragon in a parallel world of ardor, technology, monsters, gods and ancient powers that exist side by side, Mordred discovers something even more disturbing. This Arthur isn't his Arthur. This Merlin isn't his Merlin. This Merlin was a girl. And his evil aunt was... his sister? And this world has no intention of letting Mordred live a peaceful second life. Surrounded by people bearing the names of those he once knew, and possessing powers he barely understands, Mordred has to carve out his own place in a world that is far stranger than the legend he left behind. This time, he intends to decide his own fate. ******* The story is loosely based on the Arthurian legend. I am only using the popular names but the plot is different. The story is purely fictional with a few things from the actual legend being incorporated along with some stuff from other popular works. The characters may have different personalities from the original ones from the legend. There will also be names that may seem quite familiar as well.

It all started with a dirty little secret. Freshly arrived on the Douluo Continent, I made the "mistake" of overhearing the truth: the famous Grandmaster, Yu Xiaogang, is no genius—he is a plagiarizing fraud. To silence me, he tried to kill me. Big mistake. On the brink of death, my Martial Soul, the Scarecrow, awakened its true demonic form, dragging me back from hell with a second Martial Soul in hand. Now, I am no longer prey; I am the puppeteer of souls. Yu Xiaogang? I will make the world see your hypocrisy as I twist you into the most despised Evil Soul Master in history. Tang San? Your precious disciple will fall with you, transformed into public enemy number one. As the Demon Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, I will rewrite fate. Death is too merciful a gift for you two... prepare for a fate worse than hell. Thank you for the support, friends. If you want to read more chapters in advance, go to my Patreon.

Silas Malachai, 23 years old, enters the Toy Factory — a clandestine institution beneath the streets of Chicago — to dispose of anomalous objects: toys and relics that lose their narrative energy and die. He soon discovers he is unlike anyone else: instead of absorbing stories, stories flow *from* him.

And in his diary, whose contents shift with every reading, he left behind a map to something the Factory has feared for decades. The question is not whether Silas will survive. The question is whether the person chosen by stories is a weapon, a resource, or a door that should never have been opened.

I curate exhibitions. I study beauty. I keep my hands clean. New York is too loud, and the men who run it are louder. Some of them have been going quiet lately, one at a time, without a mark on them, without a struggle, without a single drop of blood on the carpet. The police call me the Silent Monster. I prefer Belladonna. A detective is looking for a ghost. My patron thinks I've become noise. And somewhere between the two, I made the only mistake I have ever made: I let myself feel something.
