I witnessed a murder. That was my mistake. The man who stepped out of the shadows that night didn’t just silence the alley—he whispered my name like it belonged to him. Alessandro De Luca is ruthless, untouchable, and feared in every underworld circle. He says he’s been looking for me for years. I don’t remember him. I don’t remember my past. And I definitely don’t remember loving him. But he looks at me like I once shattered his world. Now I’m trapped in his mansion, surrounded by secrets, lies, and a war I never knew I was born into. They say I’m not who I think I am. They say my real name could start a bloodbath. And Alessandro? He's never letting me go.

The novel *“Endless Myth”* can be written by anyone. It is not limited to the main story; there is an infinite margin for derivative works and creative reinterpretations. Even if the world collapses, the story breaks down, the characters are fractured, gods appear, or real-life elements such as readers, authors, editors, or everyday life scenes are involved — all of it is acceptable. Fragments and side stories serve to expand this space of allowance. You may take one of these pieces as a starting point to create your own story. You may also turn it into illustrations, generate images or videos with AI, or create text. Fragments are a declaration of acceptance. ※I use AI tools in my creative work.

That time when I got isekai'd into the body of an Assassin Pathway boatswain of Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy, and got the Assassin System. Clearly, there was only one thing for me to do, digest the potions, and switch to Iron Blooded Knight of the Red Priest Pathway as soon as possible. Everything that happened in between is just a story to tell. There will be pirate hunting. __________ What to expect [content warning]: Gender bending, double gender bending, Yuri. __________ There will be lots of spoilers here, for LotM and COI both. Lomers don't argue, it'll always be Lord of the Mysteries, not Lord of Mysteries (coping) __________ Not* a translation. No AI slop. Never will be.

Who says a eunuch can’t fall in love? In the noble courts of Valemont, everyone seems to agree that he cannot. Theodore von Virchow is the duke’s second son. A decorated war hero. A man of quiet authority whose cold composure makes even seasoned nobles uneasy. And he is devastatingly handsome. Tall, broad-shouldered, and sinfully good-looking, Theodore looks like a man carved by the gods themselves. Many whisper that such beauty is a cruel waste on a eunuch. With a single declaration, Theodore placed himself beyond the expectations of marriage, heirs, and romantic pursuits. Society accepted it without question. The court pitied him. The women stopped pursuing him. And life quietly moved on. Everyone accepted the truth. Everyone… except Everetta Whitmore. For thirteen years, Everetta has loved exactly one man. While society calls her foolish and her parents attempt to marry her off to more suitable lords, she refuses every offer placed before her. Because Everetta Whitmore does not believe love should be so easily abandoned. And if Theodore von Virchow truly is a eunuch? Then she intends to find out exactly what a eunuch ‘can’ do. Everetta begins a relentless pursuit that shocks the entire court. From scandalous masquerade balls to suspiciously convenient accidents in gardens, libraries, and moonlit balconies, she repeatedly throws herself into Theodore’s path with reckless determination. She bumps into him. Provokes him. Tempts him. And every time he tries to escape her, she only chases harder. Until one evening, Theodore finally snaps. “You are chasing a man who cannot give you anything,” he says coldly. “Have you no dignity?” Everetta only smiles. “Dignity?” she says sweetly. “If I cared about dignity, I wouldn’t be in love with you.” But Theodore von Virchow is a man who keeps his distance from the world, guarding himself behind silence and restraint. Least of all does he want the stubborn woman who refuses to leave him alone anywhere near his carefully ordered life. Yet the more Everetta chases him, the more impossible it becomes for him to ignore her. Because chasing a man who insists he cannot love her might ruin her reputation… but Everetta has never been afraid of scandal. … A scandalous historical romance about obsession, forbidden desire, and the relentless woman determined to prove that even a eunuch cannot escape love forever.

*The first few chapters might be a bit slow for some readers, but that changes later on.* Jin is a victim of bullying and eventually dies at the hands of his tormentors. He is reincarnated in another world and gains access to a "System," vowing never to let himself be pushed around again. However, the world he has entered is far from ordinary; women hold the power here because, unlike men, they awaken special abilities. Jin no longer wants to be told what to do, and over time, he establishes an underground organization with himself at the helm. As Jin’s influence grows, he becomes one of the world's most wanted criminals. but there is much much more to come —————————————————— The book isn't a classic "reverse world" novel; that element is part of the story, but not the main focus. The first few chapters don't have much action yet, but we'll get to that. There’s no classic "System", I didn't want to just copy things one-to-one. Even though the MC relies heavily on the "system"—especially at the beginning—I don't want him to be solely dependent on it; I want him to be able to handle things on his own, too. That’s also the reason I didn't include the word "System" in the title. This is my first novel and I'm doing it just for fun, so please be understanding.

Nanajūhachi Asuka, a soul from the 78th district of Rukongai, is cast into the world of Demon Slayer as a disposable experiment. Lacking a "system" or "cheat-codes," he relies solely on his raw Reiryoku (spiritual power) and the survival instincts of a street dog. Asuka is taken in by Tetsushin Arisaki, mastering Wind Breathing alongside his peer, Suzune. This peace is shattered when Lower Rank Two, Rokuro, massacres their home. Master Arisaki sacrifices himself, triggering the awakening of Asuka’s unique ability: Nugata—the power to devour demon essence and convert it into spiritual energy. Driven by cold vengeance, Asuka joins the Demon Slayer Corps. His presence at Mount Natagumo changes the tide, as his "serrated" strikes—infused with spiritual pressure—permanently stall demon regeneration. This "new variable" catches the attention of Muzan Kibutsuji, who begins purging the Lower Ranks to prepare for this emerging threat. Through training at the Butterfly Estate and sparring with the Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito, Asuka realizes a vital truth: traditional Wind Breathing is a "shoe that doesn't fit" his spiritual nature. He begins the journey to transcend established styles, seeking to forge an Original Breath that bridges the gap between a Soul Society ghost and a mortal swordsman.

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. Some things fade naturally. Others are helped.

In the ever-unfolding tapestry of life, circumstances occasionally dictate that conflicts arise, even among those bound by the bonds of kinship. In this crucible of adversity, the question looms large: will any among them choose to unite and confront their collective challenges, or will they opt to face their trials individually? Each of these siblings finds themselves confronted with their own arduous battle, each imbued with a distinct purpose. For some, the impetus lies in their eternal quest for change, an undying ambition that propels them forward. Others are driven by an insatiable hunger for power, seeking dominance over their chosen realm. And yet, there are those whose battles are fought for the sake of love; their motivations rooted in the profound connections that define our human existence. As these siblings navigate their respective journeys, their paths intertwine and diverge in equal measure. Some seek to discover their true nature, to uncover the depths of their being. Others strive to prove their mettle, to demonstrate their worthiness in the face of adversity. From these differing perspectives, the potential for unity or division emerges; a choice that can bind them closer than ever or sow the seeds of animosity. Will their battles drive them to turn completely against one another? Time alone will reveal the path they choose on this journey of self-discovery and affirmation.
