The Perfect Path To Insanity

Would you give up your humanity in exchange for power? To never die, a chance to be a god? Humans had lost all will to try. Their existence had been reduced to a single, self-destructive purpose: to entertain and please the cosmic gods, known as Forces, in hopes of gaining a 'favour'. After 7 years of these continuous deadly games that suddenly appeared, the Earth we know is no more. Now an apocalyptic playground for the Forces to enjoy. To survive in this ruined world, every single player is compelled to participate in these weekly deadly games. All to win prizes, be granted one of the four Paths designed for Awakeners— those who earned ‘their’ affection and favour. Until Fateless, a ‘humble’ wanted thief, stumbled upon a unique Force, one of the creators of the games. It was then he discovered the grim truth behind his name - 'Fateless' - deemed worthless and discarded at birth, exempt from all four Paths. Consumed by despair and hate, he took a risk and accepted a proposal from a shady cosmic god, granting him a fifth Path, giving him the ability to absorb human life essence to grow stronger, all for a small price. [ “I shall grant you the Fifth Path.” ] [ “The Path of Insanity.” ] [ “No mortal seeks forever without unraveling. Madness is the toll, the tariff paid at the gate.”] [ “You will no longer fear death. Nor die of age. Nor plague. Nor wounds that mortal hands deliver.” ] [ “But immortality is fed… not gifted.” ] [ “Just a tiny tithe. 10% of your humanity.” ] ‘What more is there to lose a bit of humanity, anyway? It only drags one down from their full potential. I could do just about anything without being bound to death. Anything… What a thrill it would be to spit on these cosmic slugs' faces.’

Felicity‘s Beast World Apocalypse

Beastmen / Reverse Harem/ Smut / Zombies When the world ends, Felicity expects to die quietly. Instead, she wakes to a ruined world crawling with monsters, beastmen, and dangers she was never meant to survive. Small, soft spoken, and terrified, Felicity has only one advantage: a strange power buried deep inside her that even she does not understand. Saved by Victor, a cold, powerful beastman with wings sharp enough to cut the sky, Felicity is pulled into a brutal new reality where strength decides everything and mercy is rare. Victor does not protect lightly, and once he chooses someone, he does not let go. As they travel through shattered cities and hostile territory, Felicity must learn to survive, to fight, and to claim her place in a world that no longer has room for weakness. Monsters lurk in the shadows, alliances are fragile, and desire burns just as fiercely as fear. In a beast ruled apocalypse, survival is not enough. To live, Felicity must become something more. The fire snapped, spitting sparks into the night. —————————- When Felicity blinked, Victor was closer. She had not seen him move. One moment he was across the clearing, watching the dark with those sharp, unreadable eyes, and the next he was right in front of her, his shadow swallowing hers. “You nearly died back there,” he said quietly. She tried to laugh, but it came out wrong. “It’s probably going to happen again. That seems to be my thing.” Victor’s gaze lingered on her face, then softened in a way she did not expect. He reached out and brushed a stray lock of hair from her cheek, his touch rough but careful, as if he were afraid of breaking her. “Not if I can help it,” he said. The fire crackled between them. Felicity’s heart raced as his thumb lingered at her cheek, warmth spreading through her chest at the smallest touch. The world seemed to narrow until there was only him, steady and solid, and the terrifying comfort of knowing she was no longer alone. For the first time since the world had ended, Felicity felt something dangerous bloom in her chest. Hope. hi this is my first book be gentle english is my first language art is my own

Echoes of the Activation

The world didn’t end with an explosion or a clear warning. It ended with a strange silence… and then a message. No one was prepared for the **Activation**. There were no chosen ones, no announced heroes, no divine explanation. Just an impossible notification, etched into everyone’s mind, followed by the immediate collapse of everything we took for granted. Cities went dark. Rules changed. And something ancient, invisible, and alien to humanity began moving beneath the surface of the world. The mana awakened. With it came creatures that shouldn’t exist, unpredictable mutations, and a new logic that replaced the old one without asking permission. Civilization, built on comfort and routine, crumbled in a matter of days. The strong didn’t always survive. The intelligent didn’t always get it right. And those who hesitated… vanished. Nexo was just another young man when it all began. He didn't have extraordinary powers, nor a grand destiny awaiting him. Just a vulnerable body, a mind forced to adapt, and the basic need to keep breathing one more day. In a world where every decision can mean life or death, surviving is not a heroic goal: it is a constant struggle against fear, pain, and uncertainty. As humanity learns, too late, that it is no longer the dominant species, echoes of that Activation resonate in every corner of the planet. Some hear them as promises of power. Others, as an inevitable sentence. This is not a story about saving the world. It is a story about "not dying in the attempt to understand it".

Mutant Survival Guide To The Commonwealth

This story is about a man trying to find his way in a foreign but familiar world. I plan this novel to be about his journey through the Commonwealth as he tries to make the world a better place. He would be classified as a decent person, but one who doesn't hesitate to protect his life and those he cares about. Now onto the story. Rio will find himself in the Commonwealth of Fallout 4 with a system that works like a combination of the previous titles' game mechanics. It has Skills, Traits, Perks, VATS, and everything else a survivor could need to survive the wasteland. Rio must try and find his way in a world that to him was nothing more than a videogame before he died. He will meet friends and foes alike during his journey. But the biggest issue he has to deal with isn't how to shoot a gun but how to fit into a world where he isn't a human and everyone sees him as a horrifying mutant. How will he manage to convince everyone he isn't like the big green brute or the decaying ferals? I guess you will have to read and find out. (Edit: Someone mentioned that the title was misleading so I will clarify that the main character is not a Super Mutant but he is seen as a mutant by the people. ) ------------------- Now, for the details on what you can expect from me. I will make the chapters around 1500-2000 words, and I anticipate releasing them Monday-Friday. Except for the occasional holiday, in which I may release two chapters. It may take a while before I start uploading to this story, as I want to create a few chapters first. My other story that hasn't been completed will likely go on Hiatus as I have lost some of the motivation to write that story. If you notice any errors or mistakes in any of my content, then let me know, and I will usually fix it, and if I don't, then I will at least let you know why. I read almost all the comments, so let me know what you think. Lastly, I use Grammarly, but both it and I can make grammar mistakes, so let me know if you find any. Until next time, Ciao.
