Under a sun that bleeds

In the year 2176, humanity’s first steps into deep space bring it face to face with something unknown and hostile. Seraphina Valecrest, a genetic and cellular researcher, is asked by her lover, the owner of a powerful pharmaceutical conglomerate, to develop a chemical weapon capable of disintegrating cells completely. It is meant to be humanity’s answer to an enemy that does not yet have a name. She spends ten years on the project. Ten years refining, testing, failing, and trying again until the weapon is complete. Her reward is a bullet to the head. Death does not end her story. Instead, she awakens before the goddess of love, who offers her a second life out of guilt and pity. Seraphina accepts without hesitation. Only after the choice is sealed does the goddess reveal the truth. The god above has personally chosen the world she will be sent to, a world already collapsing under an unending catastrophe. Regret comes too late. She is reborn in Erythraea, a world ruined by a recurring phenomenon known as the Crimson Descent. At the end of every month, the sun turns blood red, bathing the land in light that twists living beings. Humans with weak resistance are transformed into Sanguivores, zombie like creatures that grow stronger the longer they are exposed to the red sun. Civilization has shattered, leaving behind isolated survivors, broken cities, and faith warped by fear. Granted the power to create non living matter, command time within a limited range, and retain all knowledge within an inner archive, Seraphina walks through a dying world frozen at the age of twenty one. She does not age. She does not decay. While everything else rots beneath the crimson sky, she remains unchanged. She is not a savior by choice. She is a researcher placed inside an apocalypse, trying to understand what happens when life is pushed past its limits.

The Avalon:The bridge between life and death.

Dr. Zayne Li has a secret. Three years ago, the renowned cardiologist stumbled upon an impossible ice cave in the forest outside Linkon City. What he found inside changed everything—a portal to a nightmare realm where monsters hunt humans, where the laws of reality bend and break, and where survival means becoming something you never thought you could be. He barely escaped. And he's spent every day since sealing that cave, ensuring no one else suffers the same fate. Until Hunter Nana Wang follows him one night.Curious, reckless, and too brave for her own good, Nana is Linkon City's strongest hunter—trained to fight Wanderers, not the impossible creatures that exist beyond dimensions. When a surprise attack shatters Zayne's carefully maintained seal, both of them are pulled through the portal into Avalon: a broken city suspended between life and death, where demons, vampires, and hybrids hunt the few remaining humans. Separated by the portal's cruel logic, Nana wakes in an abandoned classroom with no weapons, no backup, and no idea how to survive. Within minutes, she's being hunted. Within hours, she's convinced she's going to die. Then she meets Mina—a survivor who's been trapped in Avalon for a month, who teaches Nana that the only way to escape this nightmare is to become a nightmare yourself.As Nana learns to fight creatures that shouldn't exist, as she loses people she comes to love, as she grows harder and stronger and more desperate, one thought keeps her going: Find Zayne. Escape together. Survive. But Zayne is fighting his own battle, alone in a realm where he's already spent three years learning to be a killer. And when they finally reunite, they discover that Avalon has one rule that changes everything: The only way out appears once a year, during the blood moon cycle, when thousands of vampires wake and hunt. And anyone bitten transforms instantly. One portal. One chance. Two people who love each other enough to sacrifice everything. In Avalon, love isn't just about living together. Sometimes it's about choosing who gets to live at all.

Vanishing Point: Global Transmigration

When The Vanishing began, Alden’s friend disappeared before his eyes. Then his brother, and then apparently nearly half of all mankind next. At the same time, practically all technology from guns and nukes to phones and plumbing mysteriously stopped working. Most who vanished didn’t return - presumably dead in whatever hell hole they’d found themselves transmigrated to. But the ones that did return came back powerful - from Demigods to Saints. The Vanishing can happen to anyone, anywhere and at anytime. With the time difference of the two worlds not being the same. While half a day passes on earth, millennia pass in the other. It can even occur to some people multiple times while to others zero. As you’d expect, the whole world completely changed overnight. The wife you went to bed with last night came back, just a few hours later, as a 3,000 year old Immortal being. Your child who you just helped get dressed this morning welcomes you back from work as an Emperor of some grand dynasty. The life and death enemy who had barely slipped by last time? Now a Saint of slaughter out for vengeance to those who’d wronged him. But that’s not necessarily an issue for Alden, it’s just that while everyone around him was busy becoming a god. He seemed to have been forgotten?? His best friend returned as an odd mix of Warrior and King. Some girl he trained for a bit, and seemed to have unknowingly charmed, awakened to becoming an angel with transcended powers. But, of course not all those Alden knew returned mighty, his brother’s whereabouts still being unknown. And at the back of his mind, Alden had a sneaking suspicion that the man wearing his best friends face wasn’t entirely his best friend anymore. The powers gained in the other world had a price? Who could’ve guessed? CONTENT WARNING: The MC has no supernatural abilities for the first few volumes. I purposefully made him a mundane powerless to raise the stakes of the apocalyptic survival. But what I can promise is that when the MC finally does get his power, that it will be earned through great suffering and greater sacrifice.

Lazy Salvation

“The boogeyman of Outer Gods, protector of Earth, humanity’s last stand—Miratheris’s son has returned.” I was drowning in sloth. The color of life had drained from my eyes, leaving only shades of grey. Doing anything felt like punishment. Looking for a job? A laughable idea. I did everything I could to stay disconnected from reality. Gambling. Drinking. Even suicidal stunts. Anything to escape the numbness that clawed at my mind for even a second. But everything comes at a cost. I abandoned my family. Broke the heart of the only woman who ever loved me. And wasted every damn day like it didn’t matter. I became the kind of man society throws out with the trash. But life didn’t spare me. Not even when I hit rock bottom. Deceived, shackled, and sold into another world— I spent the rest of my days as a slave. Forced to fight monsters ripped straight out of myth. At the very end, all I could do… was wish. Just one more chance. One shot to make things right. … Born a prodigy, Ashen Hart moved through life like a golden boy. What others worked for, he mastered with ease. At first, it felt like a blessing. The validation, pride, and accomplishment felt sweet. But even honey spoils when you’re drowning in it. The more success he tasted, the more hollow it all became. And when a mysterious power awakened within him, letting him see moments into the future— The world lost all color. And then all meaning… Nothing could surprise him. Nothing could move him. He spiraled. Ashen threw it all away—ambition, love, purpose— and embraced the slow death of apathy. But fate wasn’t done with him. Kidnapped by a shadowy organization and forced into a hidden war, he learned a truth: he wasn’t special. He was fodder. Cannon meat to delay the inevitable. But somewhere, buried beneath sloth and cynicism, the genius stirred. The apathy rotted away. And Ashen Hart, the failure, became Ashen Hart, the wretched. The unkillable. From a discarded pawn to the final hope of mankind. And when it was over—when even the gods had fallen— he was left alone. At his dying breath, the Earth’s spirit, Miratheris, answered his plea. She rewound time, giving him one last shot. But not without a price. She kept his memories intact… and delayed their return just enough so his younger self could bear the weight. Ashen’s second life begins now— and the monsters, both within and beyond, are about to learn what regret truly feels like. ═══⟲══════⟲══════⟲═══ This book was previously titled The Second Coming of Tranquility (TSCOT). All chapters are unlocked.
