Noah Astaros woke up in a world he knew all too well. The problem was that this world shouldn't exist. A universe where shinobi cast jutsus, tailed beasts terrorize nations, and ancient clans weave alliances and betrayals. A world where Noah, now under the identity of Nawaki Senju, has a unique opportunity: to use his knowledge of the plot to accumulate power and unlock forbidden abilities. A collector of kekkei genkai, a thief of divine eyes, a jinchūriki of the Kyūbi by his own will. He masters Hashirama's Wood Style, the Uchiha's Sharingan, the Ōtsutsuki's Tenseigan, and the magic and abilities of countless other fictional worlds. Every battle is an opportunity to obtain new abilities. Every world, a stepping stone toward his true goal: to transcend the limits of existence and reach the pinnacle of the Omniverse. Noah is a meticulous and pragmatic protagonist, who plans every move even decades or centuries in advance and does not hesitate to sacrifice what is necessary to achieve his goals. Throughout his journey, he will master various power systems: chakra, magic, spiritual power, ancient runes, devil fruits... all the rules of each universe are tools that Noah bends to his will. Noah will not hesitate to wage battles on a divine scale, where opponents are not merely enemies, but sources of power to be absorbed, studied, and overcome. He will travel between different timelines and dimensions, exploring key moments from worlds such as Naruto, Harry Potter, Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece, and more, always with a clear objective: to seize the objects of power that define each reality. This is a protagonist who never apologizes for his ambition. Noah seeks neither redemption nor acceptance. He seeks power. And he obtains it. This is the story of how a man, armed with knowledge and determination, challenges gods, demons, and entire systems to forge his own path. There are no moral twists where the villain turns out to be right. Noah knows what he is doing. And he does it because he can. Prepare to accompany Noah on his ascent. Do not expect a hero. Do not expect a villain. Expect someone who left those labels behind long ago.

New Dark Weird Fiction and Psychological Horror. Short stories of fractured realities, symbolic contagion, objects that conceal hidden meanings, and people who discover—far too late—that the world is not what it seems. DISCLAIMER - The story reflects the author's creativity and structure, but may utilize an AI voice and tone. A negligible amount of AI-generated fragments may be present. This is because AI was used in the translation process. The inspiration of this work consists of chapters from other books already published by me in the Romanian language. Those excerpts have been revised, augmented, and translated to be offered to English speakers. Although I have made efforts, I am aware that there may be mistakes due to the fact that English is not my first language. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Fiona Brett's rise as a promising actress is abruptly derailed when her parents, desperate to save the family from financial ruin, accept a marriage proposal on her behalf from a man she barely knows. Forced to shoulder the burden of her family’s survival, Fiona is compelled to sacrifice her own dreams. Seeking solace, she turns to the love of her life, Alexander only to discover him entangled with her own sister. Betrayed and heartbroken, Fiona meets a tragic end at the hands of those she trusted most. But fate gives her a second chance. Reborn on the very day everything fell apart, Fiona awakens with a burning resolve: revenge. Determined to reclaim her life, she strikes a dangerous deal with her fiancé, a pact laced with thorns and unforeseen consequences. As her past wounds begin to heal, Fiona finds her heart ensnared deeper than ever by Manson’s dangerous game yet even he is unaware that he, too, has been caught in its snare. Together, they step into a world far darker than Fiona could have imagined: a world of deception, hidden truths, ruthless manipulators, and long-burried sins.

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.

My arm ached where the needle pierced the vein. Already, my fingers were numb, spots spinning in front of my eyes. Something clattered onto the pavement. The needle. It must have slipped out of my hand. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first sense of peace that I'd felt since...ever. But that was okay. It meant that there was no one to miss me, and no one I would miss. Well, perhaps there would be a few, but they could always find others to extract their cruel, sadistic pleasure from. My last breath was rough and shallow, the last beat of my heart pitifully fail. I sank to the alley floor, eyes closing, welcoming the blessed nothingness of the end. Only...death was supposed to be dark, wasn't it? And since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

One by one, members of Thirteen began to experience strange events, as the secrets of the villa slowly unraveled a dark past that was never meant to be awakened.

The stars are beacons in the sky; they burn ever so bright, illuminating the universe. But with light there must come darkness. The world may seem like a beautiful place shrouded in brilliant light, filled with love and prosperity. But beneath that beauty, there is blood; beneath that light, there is darkness; and beneath that love, there is pain. The central world is known as Clara Astrum, a realm of adventure and mystery. A world full of marvellous sights, towering mountains, and vast oceans. A world where dreams were held, and legends were created. But that was not where I was born. I was born in the world below, the one known as Mortuus Lux, the world of decay. There was no light, no stars; all we had was the flickering heart. I suffered like the rest, I fought to survive, and I evolved by devouring my brothers and sisters. There is no such thing as companionship here, only one's own strength. The weak perish while the strong delay the inevitable. I embrace my demise because with death, I will be free. I embrace life because with every encounter, I shed a thread of weakness. My name is Luna, a demon born in Mortuus Lux, raised in blood and war, and burdened with my own destined death.

Mature Content... 1996, the world was still analog, disconnected, and blissfully unaware of the digital storm on the horizon. For Marvin Meyers, soon to be eleven-year-old prodigy with the souls of an ancient, -hungry Incubus, and a modern man it is the ultimate hunting ground. ​Armed with the memories of a future where tech giants rule and entertainment is the new religion, Marvin doesn't just want to be a star—he wants to own the sky. From the "plagiarism" of legendary works to the strategic acquisition of the world's most undervalued IPs, Marvin begins a cold, calculated climb to the top. ​While his classmates at his elite L.A. school worry about grades, Marvin is busy recruiting a young Mark Zuckerberg, filing predatory tech patents, and building a multi-national empire that spans the US, Japan, South Korea, and China. In a world fueled by human desire, there is no greater predator than an Incubus who knows exactly what the future wants before it even exists. Marvin Meyers died a lazy brat, but he woke up as something much more dangerous. With the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis looming and the Dot-com bubble about to hiss, Marvin has a four-year window to become rich enough to get his hands on one of the big seven. Joy, anger, lust, sorrow, and happiness are all desires and emotions. As long as these emotions are directed at me, they can become nourishment for my spiritual practice. Okay, let's see what reliable ways there are in this world that can stir up a lot of people's emotions? Hmm, writer, that's good; umm, music, that's also good; wow, Hollywood movies, reaching the whole world, that's fantastic! Looks like I need to become a plagiarist... what's that word again? Right, a copyist. I'll start as a writer, and my ultimate goal is to become an international star. What? You mean acting skills? I'm a Incubus! --- Additional tags: Heavy harem, smut, possessive characters, smart mc, sudden strength gain, lust emotion and desire -based power system, no yuri, no netorare. A/N:- Story and smut are well balanced. You won't feel bored if you have come for either of the two or maybe both.
