I am currently in Konoha and have just become Orochimaru's apprentice. "So, is the Sharingan's transformation from one tomoe to two or three tomoe due to genetic mutation, or something else?"

#VillainDad #CuteProtagonist #Ghosts #Misunderstanding #Transmigration #SmartMC Mira realized two things the moment she woke up in the body of a nameless orphan in a fantasy novel: 1. She is a disposable "shrimp" destined to die in the crossfire of the main characters. 2. She is the only person in this world who can see the screaming, terrifying ghosts that haunt every corner of the empire. Tortured by the wails of the dead, Mira finds only one source of silence: Duke Kaelus von Nacht. Known as the "Dark Lord" and the "Emperor's Sword," Kaelus is a man so ruthless and soaked in bloodlust that even the ghosts are terrified to go near him. To the world, he is a monster. But to Mira, he is a walking, talking pair of noise-canceling headphones. Desperate for a good night's sleep, Mira clings to him, acting like a naive, affectionate child to secure her place by his side. She succeeds, but she miscalculated. Kaelus didn't adopt her out of kindness. He needed a disposable child to act as 'live bait' for the assassins targeting him. Now named Seraphina, she must navigate a deadly game of survival. She thinks she is using him as a ghost shield. He thinks she is a fearless prodigy who loves him. As Seraphina munches on poison berries and naps through ambushes to avoid seeing spirits, the cold-blooded Duke starts to ask the wrong questions. "Why does she only sleep when I am holding her?" "Why does she stare into space with such disdain?" "Is it possible... that I am a good father?" Spoiler: He is not. But he’s about to destroy an entire kingdom because someone woke her up. --- ### Excerpt "Your Highness, the Archduke," the aide whispered, trembling hard to cover his laughter from bursting out. "The child... she is clinging to your leg again." Kaelus looked down. The tiny creature known as Seraphina was attached to his calf like a barnacle, drooling on his pristine military trousers. "She is fearless," Kaelus murmured, misinterpreting her desperate need for his ghost-repelling aura as familial affection. "The assassins are approaching, yet she seeks comfort only in the eye of the storm. She is the perfect bait." Seraphina, currently trying to avoid eye contact with a headless ghost hovering three feet away, squeezed her eyes shut. 'Just don't move. If I let go, the headless guy will ask me where his nose is again.' "Sir," the aide hesitated. "She's... eating your cloak." "Let her eat," Kaelus commanded, drawing his sword. "Whatever she wants, she gets. Except for freedom."

In ages past when hope was spent and low, All creation stood bound within its quiet repose. Then did Reality tremble from a boundless might, And the earth quaked across the starless night. A star descended from the vast beyond, And bound reality in grief's most tragic bond. It stole the future in its greedy plight, Yet wept in secret at the ruined sight. With painted smiles it played a gentle part, And strove to heal each broken, wounded heart. Yet the star never found the words to seek amends, The answer on the tip of its tongue which it couldn't transcend. Its guilt endured, a weight upon its boundless soul, Awaiting forgiveness from the broken world. Wherefore to him whose destiny it had reft, It turned to mend the soul that it had left. The Bereft was lost, struggling with his blight, Yet the star became his new, endearing light. Until at last the end drew near, And to eternity the star must steer. In passing through the void it set things right, Returning the future it had plight. No soul recalled the star from then on, Save for the Bereft… whose longing was not gone.

Max was a former assassin who lived a lonely and peaceful life. He spent all 7 years of his life in loneliness, but it did not matter. He found great joy in playing "The Adventures of Emiliana, Searching for Truth," a reverse harem visual novel he found by accident. At first, he thought the game was bad. However, he changed his mind because of his favorite character: the fiancee of the crown prince, who was one of the male leads. This fiancee was a villainess. She was his favorite character and also his crush. In his whole life, she was the only one who made things feel special and worth living for. He tried every choice possible to make her survive in the game, but it was all useless. When she died in a terrible and sad way, he threw his glass of beer in anger. "FUCK THIS GAME!" He went outside and was suddenly shot in the head. Then, he woke up in the body of Sylan, the Act 3 middle boss of the game. He lived that life not once, not twice, but 30 thousand times. He went back in time thousand of times to try and save his crush. He always failed. In his final try, he died at Emiliana's hands by the power of the goddess. He thought he would go back in time again. He thought he would suffer another life as Sylan. Instead, he woke up in his past life as Max. He promised himself that he would live this new life happily until he died. But will his newly returned life be easy? Or worse, will he become Sylan again? This is the story of the Act 3 middle boss, who went back in time many times. Now, he returns to his original world and just wants to live a peaceful, quiet life until he dies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alternate Title of the Novel: The Act 3 Middle Boss' Return --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tags: Morally Grey MC, Weak to Strong, NO NTR, Dark, Romance, NO INCEST, System (Only Certain Characters and the Heroines would have it except the MC), Mystery, Angst, Villain, Anti-Hero, Assassin MC --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The First Chapters would be urban like genre in the first volume and after that, it would go back into Fantasy Genre in Volume 2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my discord link if anyone wants to join: https://discord.gg/nH4CtvwaUa

The crime rate in Japan continues to increase, with the majority of crimes consisting of serial murders. The culprits, victims, and people involved in each case are completely unrelated to one another, but one thing ties all these murders together: a red rose was always found at the crime scene. Soon, the public began to assume that all the murders were committed by the same party. That party was then nicknamed "Red Rose" following its unique deed of placing roses near the crime scenes. However, no one knows who or where this party actually is. Fujishige Shou is a seventeen-year-old high schooler whose only goal is to live a peaceful school life. Upon entering the third year of high school, he befriends an intelligent yet antisocial girl named Koizumi Ririsu, who is the daughter of a renowned detective. Soon, Shou learns about the existence of the Mystery Club, a club built by Ririsu along with a few of her friends: the visually impaired yet cheerful and kind-hearted Asahina Ayu, the genius child prodigy Kurata Akio, and the calm and mature Hayashi Kazuhiro. They all have one goal within the club, and that is to study the Red Rose murder case. One incident leads to another, ending with Shou joining the Mystery Club, which causes Shou's supposedly simple life to be flipped upside down as they soon find themselves dragged into the twisted murder case involving the faceless criminal, Red Rose.

What does it mean to be human? In the far distant future where all life has seemingly perished, an astral meteor collides into the remnants of a giant mechanized disc located underground in an isolated ghost town. From the disc, a single entity awakens within cryostasis with only one clear path: "I must kill the Lords of METIS." She wields a blade surging with the life force of an ancient named Alfaic, whom she denounces upon first contact. She is an unnamed warrior, who is affectionately nicknamed Lyn (LYNBG52) by her comrades from a single mysterious code name tattooed on her left arm. Grotesque aggressive creatures known as the Rots are composed of a combination of rotting entities that roam the lands. Seeking to devour all life they come across, their relationship with the denizens of METIS and the apocalypse resembles more than just their sustenance, but a secret that Lyn must discover for herself if she is to save humanity or watch it perish.

In a world where the sun has long since perished beneath an eternal cobalt night, every human is born with Lunar Ichor, a living essence etched with a unique Lunar Sigil, a sacred symbol engraved into the soul itself. Yet Lunar Ichor alone grants no true divinity. Only when it resonates with Divine Ichor through the sacred rite of Baptism does the sigil awaken, forging an Astral Card, the vessel of one’s ascension and power. But the heavens are broken. The Moons, fragments of Divine Ichor left behind by gods waging endless war, hang shattered above the world, bleeding their power into mankind while spreading corruption through the night. From these celestial wounds came the Howlings, monstrous echoes of divine ruin, and the prophecy of another Cataclysm, a calamity said to descend when the Moon Goddess Noxella awakens once more. Amid this dying world lives Clyde Nox Pvolae, a boy who never sought power, never desired ascension, and never wished to stand among gods. Yet when he discovers a forbidden book buried beneath ancient truths, his Lunar Ichor mutates into Hollow Star, an impossible anomaly that defies the sacred laws binding humanity to the heavens. As the coming Cataclysm draws near and the descent of Noxella threatens to plunge the world into ruin, Clyde becomes entangled in a fate older than the gods themselves. If the heavens once fell because of mankind’s arrogance, then what will happen when one human gains the power to defy the gods? Will history repeat itself?
