How to Lose Everyone You Love (And Learn Why You Did)

Seventeen year old Arin believes he has life figured out: blend in, be likable, say the right things, and never let anyone glimpse the silence underneath. To his classmates, he’s the “friendly one”, easy to talk to, charismatic, always ready with a smile or a joke. To himself, he’s just terrified that if he ever stops performing, he’ll disappear. But the act has a cost. The more Arin tries to be what everyone wants, the less he recognizes himself. His laughter feels rehearsed. His reactions feel scripted. And every conversation leaves him feeling a little more hollow than before. His friends don’t notice the cracks, why would they? He hides them too well. But Arin knows something is wrong. The mask that once protected him now feels like it’s strangling him. People don’t leave suddenly. Sometimes, you drift away first. When Arin finally realizes how exhausted and emotionally empty he’s become, it hits him with an uncomfortable truth: he isn’t being authentic, he’s disappearing behind his own performance. He’s not the charming guy everyone admires. He’s a boy afraid of being real. Now, standing at the edge of his own breaking point, Arin begins the slow, unsettling process of asking himself questions he’s always avoided: Why is he so scared of being himself? What happens when you’ve faked your way through friendships? And can someone rebuild their identity without losing the people they love? This is a story about a teenager quietly unravelling beneath the weight of his own perfection, and the painful, hopeful struggle to find a self worth showing to others. A psychological coming of age drama about masks, loneliness, and the courage to be real before the act consumes you.

On his seventeenth birthday, hungry and poor, he collapsed in an alleyway, regretting how pitiful his life had been,slipping into what he thought to be death's embrace.

If you are looking for a “goody two shoes” protagonist with a hero complex, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. This is an extremely fast paced novel , and the protagonist of this novel is someone who becomes absurdly overpowered. He is also not the usual person who makes decisions that fit the hero complex genre. the villian and antihero tags are not for show. Note for Readers(Please do not skip this): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes, it may remind you of popular works you’ve read—but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities, each adding a unique blend to his path. I included the shadow affinity as a nod to some of my favorite novels, but this is not a copy. The journey, characters, and world are entirely my own.

Magus Supremacy

{WSA ENTRY 2025} __ "They said I had no magic. That I was worthless, a trash, a commoner and a peasant. But the day I awakened... the heavens shook, the world and continents trembled before my name: The Supreme mage!" Grey was born magicless in a world where magic defines everything. Mocked, beaten, left to rot by nobles who saw him as nothing. They should’ve killed him when they had the chance. After a brush with death, Grey awakens terrifying affinities that defy the laws of magic itself. From nobody to a monster who was both feared and respected, he earns a place at Lunaria Academy—where elite bloodlines reign and commoners are crushed. But Grey isn’t here to bow. He’s here to dominate. Armed with ruthless ambition and a squad of warriors from every race—elves, dwarves, phoenixes, and more—Grey’s rise to supremacy begins with vengeance... and ends in legend. This isn’t your typical underdog story. This is war. This is power. This is Magus Supremacy! _____________ Harem? No; although there are going to be several female interests, there won't be a Harem that I assure you all. OP MC? Yes; although he was weak from the start and always got bullied, he is going to be OP after unlocking at least 2 to 3 affinities so watch out. Action packed fights? Yes! Heart-pumping fights that will you keep you glued to your screens. Academy? Yes! Although the academy arc doesn't come through until a hundred chapters and that's because of how long I plan the book to last. _______________ Note: This book is participating in WSA, so I will appreciate it if y'all support this book with power stones and all. And I promise not to relent in chapter uploads. ___________ GOALS FOR MASS RELEASE!!! 500 Power stones= 2 extra chapters 500 Golden tickets= 2 extra chapters.

Daily Logs of Corruption Hero! ~ Roy Cooper

Hi! I am Roy! Do not make the mistake of thinking what I am telling you is a lie. Everything I am writing here is happening to me in real life. This app, 'Corruption Hero', gives me 10 Points every day to write a daily log. Well, if I have to write, I guess I will write down everything that I learned so I can make sense of this shit. Hm, where do I start? This world is not normal. Everything else is the same as a normal city on Earth, except for one major event in this world’s history, which changed this world from its roots.  One country came really close to ruling the whole world. Laveshia Empire. The third emperor of the Laveshia Empire was annoyed by his family's lecherous history. So one day, he ordered the scientists of the Laveshia Empire to find a way to make human desires for sex a bit more refined and dignified genetically.  They made a gas that could make humans control their urges and used it all around the world. But guess what? Life finds a way. And so does horniness. After a few decades, the empire noticed that the old people were fine under this new dignified way of life, but the new generation that was born after the great purification was a weird one.  They had all become closet perverts. ——— For suggestions on the story or feedback, join my Discord server. Or to simply hang with other perverts who read this. Chapter updates will be announced there as well. https://discord.gg/C9556TJEUF

SSS Ranked Talent: I Can Upgrade My Skills Infinitely

He was a desperate survivor in a world devoured by monsters and gods, only to be granted a second chance. Reborn three years in the past, Alvian awakens moments before the launch of the hyper-realistic VR game "gods domain." He knows the horrifying truth: this is no game. In one year, the Convergence will merge worlds, and humanity will be the prey. During character creation, he makes a gamble that defies all logic. He abandons all pre-set classes for the custom class: "SkillBurst"...no starting skills, no stat bonuses...a path to failure for anyone else. As the system processes his suicidal choice, a new alert flashes before his eyes: [The System, recognizing this extreme handicap, has granted a compensatory reward!] [Ding! You have acquired the Sole SSS-Rank Talent: Super Upgrade System!] Instantly, the rules of the game are shattered. His path is no longer one of desperation, but of absolute domination. ———————— [You have learned the Legendary skill (Shadow Weave)!] [Super Upgrade System Activated! The skill has bypassed its limits!] [Congratulations on acquiring [Shadow Weave +2], granting damage immunity and near-perfect uptime!] While other players grind starter mobs, Alvian becomes an invisible phantom, assassinating a high-level exam boss before anyone can even react. While the academy’s elite follow the rules, Alvian exploits his future knowledge to gain legendary skills and world-first achievements. [You have learned the flawed AOE spell (Frost Descent), noted as un-upgradable with a high chance of self-injury.] [Super Upgrade System Activated!] [Congratulations! The self-harm drawback has been REMOVED! The spell now deals catastrophic damage and applies a powerful slowing debuff!] Armed with a talent that breaks the very concept of limits, Alvian’s rise is unstoppable. Dismissed as a cheater by the academy’s top prodigy? He leaves her in the dust, turning her rivalry into conflicted awe and eventually, hard-earned respect. Faced with an unkillable Apostle of a Calamity Demon? He achieves a World-First kill that puts his name on the global stage and reveals a terrifying truth: the apocalypse is coming faster than he ever predicted. Considered a classless anomaly? He conquers the Overlords Academy Championship, forges a legendary weapon, and uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to tear humanity's last bastion apart from the inside. But Alvian’s greatest power isn’t just his talent—it's the knowledge of the horrors to come. He will infiltrate doomsday cults, battle corrupted leaders, and stand against a newly awakened Demon God. Follow Alvian's journey from a traumatized survivor to a world-breaking anomaly. With the Convergence accelerating and humanity's last bastion falling from the sky, will his one-of-a-kind talent be enough to avert the end of the world, or will this second chance be his last?
