Luna has always believed the wind carries voices. Most people call it imagination. Luna calls it curiosity. With her camera in hand, she spends her evenings chasing quiet places, small moments, and strange feelings the world leaves behind. One of those places is an old bench in a quiet park. It is nothing special to everyone else, but to Luna it feels like a memory waiting to be discovered. Her days are normal enough. School, friends, late evening walks, and the habit of listening to the wind more carefully than anyone else. Yet something about the bench keeps pulling her back. Every time she passes it, the air feels different, like the wind is trying to say something she cannot quite understand. One night, after returning late from extra classes, Luna finds the bench glowing softly under the dark sky. What begins as a quiet mystery quickly becomes something far greater. The wind she once listened to is not just wind. Beyond the bench lies a hidden path into a strange and beautiful world filled with floating lands, forgotten ruins, and echoes of voices that were never meant to be lost. It is a place where memories drift like petals in the air and where the past refuses to stay silent. As Luna steps into this unknown world, she discovers she is not the only one connected to it. Somewhere along the path waits a boy named Ron, someone who has been chasing the same wind for far longer than she has. Together with Ron and his loyal friend Kenta, Luna finds herself pulled into an adventure that stretches far beyond their quiet town. But this journey is not only about discovering a hidden world. It is about the memories people leave behind, the voices carried by the wind, and the quiet truth that some connections never truly disappear. Because sometimes the wind does not just carry sound. Sometimes it carries pieces of the heart that were never meant to fade.

In a world where magic is everything, Reale was born with nothing. No spells. No mana. No future. But when ancient corruption begins spreading through beasts, blood, and bodies — sweet, cold, and burnt — everyone else panics. Reale smells it first. While mages try to purify it and the Academy calls it a curse, Reale treats it like spoiled meat: cut it open, salt it, boil it, and force it to give him power. With nothing but a rusty cleaver and an old iron pot, he turns monsters into meals — and those meals into strength. He can’t cast spells. So he cooks them instead. As the corruption grows deeper and the Academy’s secrets surface, Reale realizes the real rot isn’t in the monsters… It’s in the world that decided he was worthless. Now, the boy who couldn’t cast a single spell is about to cook his way to the top — one forbidden dish at a time. And he’s not doing it alone.

Legends are not born. They are constructed. Zane Dagonet was supposed to live an ordinary life in a quiet European town. But when reality itself begins to fracture around him, dreams stop being harmless illusions and become something far more dangerous. Because somewhere beyond the fabric of existence, something has noticed him. And the universe has a habit of correcting its mistakes.

Average bloodline. Average talent. Average background. In a world filled with monsters what right does someone like him have to stand at the top? “Two hundred times the effort?” Beelzebub Astrix only laughed. “I have a cheat code.”

They call him Ghost. A name whispered in fear across warzones, black markets, and underworld circles. To the world, he's a phantom—a faceless mercenary who leaves no trace but bodies in his wake. To his enemies, he’s a death sentence. To his brothers-in-arms in Graveyard, he’s family. But to himself... he's a haunted man searching for a past stolen in gunfire and smoke. After a flawless mission deep in the Eastern Province, Ghost returns to the hidden forest base he's called home for sixteen years. Yet the victory is short-lived. His foster father, the commander delivers an unexpected order: "That was your last mission." Now, Ghost—real name Miles Sterling—must step out of the shadows of war and into a world he’s never known. Guided only by a scarred letter, a fading memory, and the voice of a woman he hasn’t seen since the day everything was taken from him. But war forged more than his body and name. Behind the mask, behind the scars, Miles has another secret. One he’s kept hidden even from his brothers in arms. He’s not just a weapon. He’s a ghost with a fortune—a hidden empire he built in silence, across borders and black markets, forged in strategy and blood. A man of many names, and many shadows. Beneath the bullets, tattoos, and silence lies a truth buried in ashes. And Ghost is about to dig it up—one letter, one enemy, one memory at a time.

Hrafn is a young man shaped by loss and hard work living an ordinary life until he is touched by the miracle, now burdened with duties he never wanted and honors he never needed. Torn from his former life, he begins to walk roads where death is routine, faith is law, and power comes at a terrible price. Around him the old tales gain weight, corruption moves in the darkness, and signs begin to emerge that something worse is awakening. Between walls and creatures born of the impossible, Hrafn and those at his side will have to face not only the terrors of the night, but also the secrets, ambitions, and truths that uphold the very world they live in to survive.

Seven-year-old Kairo is torn from his ordinary life by a blinding flash of light, awakening alone and terrified in a vast, otherworldly forest. Without cheats, goddesses, or explanations, this isekai begins with raw isolation and fear. Stumbling through the unknown, he collapses at the gates of a majestic kingdom where giants dwell, oxygen-rich air fuels extraordinary strength, and kindness is the very foundation of society. Miraculously adopted by the compassionate King, Kairo is hailed as a child of prophecy—destined to become the future ruler, welcomed with love, rigorous training, and mysterious blessings that make the land even more fertile. He forms bonds with noble and common children alike, marvels at a pristine night sky ablaze with stars, and begins the long path toward strength under his adoptive father’s guidance. Yet beneath the warmth of his new home lurks a hidden darkness—a shadowy pact tied to his soul, promising power born from suffering. In the utopian Land of Harmony—where only pure hearts are accepted, kindness brings perfect health and longevity, and greed is rejected—Kairo must discover that true strength lies not in magic or might, but in morality, loyalty, and an unyielding gentle heart. A coming-of-age isekai that subverts classic tropes: no instant overpowered status, no harem, no Demon Lord quest—only raw trials, divine mercy, unbreakable friendship, and the quiet belief that a kinder world begins with one unchanged soul.

In a world ruled by flashy Quirks and overwhelming power, Loki Hargreaves is labeled a failure. Born with the Quirk *Grand illusion*, Loki can create dazzling visions of green light—but nothing real. No weight. No substance. No value. Mocked as a fraud and dismissed as “basically quirkless,” he learns early that the world only respects what it can touch. Until he discovers the truth. His Quirk does not create illusions—it creates **belief**. If someone believes the lie, the lie becomes real. Armed with cold intelligence, brutal self-awareness, and a mind sharper than any blade, Loki chooses a path no one expects. He will walk into UA High, the academy of true heroes, not with fire or steel—but with deception so convincing it can rewrite reality itself. This is the story of a boy who turns lies into weapons, perception into power, and the world itself into a stage. When the curtain rises, only one question remains: **If reality is built on belief… who decides what’s real?**q

To summarize this story in one sentence: A boy is Chosen to encounter an evil person who was never meant to become a monster. When seventeen-year-old Damon Vale lost his mother, his whole world cracked. Not just with grief, but also an impossible truth. Damon is no longer just a high schooler dealing with gangs and betrayal; he is the descendant of a powerful Queen of Woewyn, a kingdom on a realm carrying good and bad in excess. Raised on Earth by the Queen who lied to save his life, Damon is gifted and burdened by a power that literally bends elements and is constantly on the verge of purging his own body. Now, ancient gods and demons are pouring into The Multiverse, some disguised as humans. Chronisouls, some torment, some help. For Damon, the choice is simple: Embrace the divine power that hurts him from the inside out, or watch his life on Earth, including the one girl who sees past his walls, shatter forever. From quiet rooftops(literally) to cosmic wars(also literally), Damon must discover if saving existence means losing the simplicity he always wanted, getting something better... or obtaining worse. (He doesn't look anything like the cover. I only used it 'cause a friend made it for me and it's pretty cool.)

In a world vast—far beyond the scope of human perception. A world where all kinds of treasures and secrets lie hidden, yet humans still clash over power while a far greater threat looms over them. Amid pain, suffering, fleeting joys, and even moments of true happiness—whether among the noble or the common, whether with family or strangers—when survival becomes the ultimate goal, the true nature of humanity emerges. Anas, guided by what humans fear and despise most—curiosity and the pursuit of survival—along with his companions, traverses this expansive world. But can this world hold more than just pain, suffering, and chaos? Or will it crush them on their path toward their goal? Perhaps it will transform them into something they never imagined… or maybe something they did. No one knows, right? Even amid ruins and blood, a lily always manages to break the rules and bloom, mocking the world itself. Or will it be cut down? In the end… nothing ever goes according to plan in this world. Can you adapt to the unexpected, or will you let it crush you?

The world of Arithea, a realm surrounded by the ominous Dark Sea. This sea is feared by all, as those who venture too far are claimed by its shadowy depths. Some believe that the gods forgotten their world that's why the Dark Sea is spreading. This sea created the being called lost sailors, forever bound to the Dark Sea. They drift aimlessly, caught between life and death, twisted by the ocean's dark power, haunting anyone who dares to navigate its perilous waters. -Inspired by the Game Arcane Odyssey

#WSA2026 Court-martialed, disgraced, and abandoned by the world he once served, a former special operations commander awakens inside a novel he himself wrote. Reborn as the doomed son of a noble family, a villain fated to die within a month.

To his classmates, he is "roll number forty-five," a frustrated boy in dirty clothes who has spiraled from being a "Little Prince" to a social outcast after the tragic death of his father, Arthur Vance. ​While the world sees a failing student, Christopher carries the heavy, weary mind of a forty-year-old man, aged by three years of intense suffering. He has lost interest in everything except for one thing: Mathematics. In a world of grief and family betrayal—where his "perfect" siblings, Lydia and Julian, treat him like a stranger in his own home—numbers are the only truth he has left. ​I Am Christopher: The Outcast Genius is a raw, emotional journey of a brilliant mind pushed to the edge, fighting to reclaim its place in a world that has already written him off.

Rex Silverstar is a normal boy who has a traumatic experience. On the day of the Supernatural Emergence, a Werewolf takes everything he has. He lost his family and his home, left alone in this cruel world. What drives him to live every day is his deep hatred towards the Supernaturals.

On a fateful night, in a near-death experience, he's given a chance by the full moon. It was the turning point of his life.

**UPDATES: Monday, Wednesday, Friday** In the shadowed streets of Calamor, where beastfolk are hunted and collared, a golden-furred stray named Mona survives by instinct alone—quick, silent, and always one step ahead of the chains. When a scarred human guardian named Valen offers her shelter and purpose as his “House Guard,” Mona must decide if trust is worth the risk of new scars. Valen is no stranger to loss. Haunted by the friends he couldn’t save and the blood-magic that burns through his veins with every lash of his whip, he takes Mona in not out of charity, but recognition: she is the stray he once was, and the protector he still tries to be. But Calamor’s peace is fragile. A bounty on rare golden fur draws hunters to their door, old laws punish kindness, and whispers of rebellion stir in the beastfolk enclaves. As Mona learns to wield a bow and write her own name, she discovers that safety is never free—and protection always carries a cost. In a world that fears difference and punishes hope, two broken souls must choose: hide from the darkness, or stand against it together. A gritty YA fantasy of found family, quiet courage, and the price of loyalty. For readers who love morally gray guardians, scarred survivors, and the hard-won light in the shadows.
