It is here that the heirs of noble houses, royal bloodlines, and guild legacies gather to hone their talents — and claim supremacy over the future. But for Michael Willson, things are different. Once a nameless outsider with no family or backing, he possesses only one weapon: knowledge. By a twist of fate, Michael has memories of Arcadia not as a student… but as a game.

Thrown into the brutal Survival Trial, Michael faces monsters, rival cadets, and even death itself. While the world sees a ruthless tactician who outpaces prodigies from the mightiest families, Michael only sees ticking clocks and looming disasters.

Edric William, the arrogant scion of the strongest family. And countless others. Yet in every glance, every whisper, one truth becomes clearer: Michael Willson is no mere background character. He is the variable, the shadow, the one unseen by fate’s design. Arcadia is about to begin. And Michael will rewrite the story. ----- Tags: #Progression ,#Fantasy, #LitRPG, #GameLit, #Academy, #System, #Swordsmanship, #Adventure #Action #Magic #Dungeon | #Weak-to-Strong #Rivalry #Hidden Identity #Isekai, #Overpowered

Chen Gu has transmigrated to a future world where some have superpower. They could release nuclear blasts barehanded; manipulate quantum teleportation to achieve instantaneity; exhale particle winds that could melt metal like dragons; and control human thoughts as a hacker does computers... But the first thing Chen needs to deal with is that he somehow has a forty-year-old son. "Are you saying... you are my father?" "No, I am your son."

In times of war… What is a Battle Mecha engineer expected to do? Are they expected to do research and realize their imagination? How about a Battle Mecha pilot? Are they expected to enter battle with their mechas as they display their exquisite control through bizarre and bewildering techniques? What about a member of the special scouts? Are they expected to infiltrate deep into the enemy lines as they use stellar unarmed fighting skills to suppress the enemy with a single move? Or are they expected to make use of disguises and stealth techniques to take out the enemy? And what about a military officer? Are they expected to analyze the outcome of a battle? Or are they expected to create brilliant strategies to triumph over the enemy through a miraculous move? For someone who excels in human psychology, deceit, assassination, and disguise, what happens when that person is merged with all those professions? This is the story of a cowardly, wretched, and despicable fatty.

Beneath the vast and infinite starry skies of the universe, countless tribes engage in endless strife, and the flames of war remain unquenched. Rising from insignificance, he possessed no exceptional talents, except for the ability to draw upon the fruits of cultivation from the future. Yet, in a single night, he understood the Dao, and took a step that shattered the shackles of life. With but a thought, he grasped the universal powers, casually breaking down the barriers between spirit and reality. To him, even the most profound and enigmatic of secret tomes were as simple and dull as children's books. Still, he had to go back and fill in the gaps of his cultivation... Some appeared to be glorious, unparalleled geniuses. In reality, they practiced like mad in the shadows to repay their debts...

The Supernatural era descended, the rules changed, mystery arrived, and the world altered. Countless ruins of civilization emerged, and an abundance of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures lay at everyone's fingertips. Radical faction, "This is the best of times, entering a new world, excavating relics, mass evolution!" Conservative, "This is the worst of times, with countless monsters outside, once you leave the Safe Zone, extinction awaits humanity!" … Meanwhile, at a remote ruin, Lu Yuan successfully discovered new treasures and sought after the mysterious wealth, desperately trying to contact his fellow Earthlings. "Found a communicator, can it get through?" "Hey, humans—I'm almost becoming a god, and you're still hiding in the Safe Zone?" …… (Original title: "A Thousand Years Ahead of Humanity") (Also known as "Picking Up Trash in the New World," "Even Wealthier Than All Humans," "One Person Is a Civilization," "Please Call Me the Human Pioneer," "I Am the Strongest Pioneer," and more!)

In a dystopian future plagued by bizarre, unnatural phenomena, humanity's desperation for survival has led to the normalization of human experimentation. 072, a young child born from these experiments, seizes a fleeting chance and managed to escape the confines of his prison. Thrust into a new, unfamiliar and chaotic world, 072 embarks on a journey to carve out a place for himself in this strange new reality he now calls his 'home.'

The first star that passed away extinguished two thousand years ago. Four hundred years later, the mysterious Calamity of Heavenly Fall destroyed the civilization of the previous era, returning thriving cultures to ignorance. Since then, stars gradually vanished, the Firmament grew dark and dim, and a new civilization rose from the starless wilderness, flourishing once more. Yet, what accompanied this were war, death, destruction, and hatred. The flames once aimed at the Firmament were used to slaughter the people of enemy nations, and the raining clouds once engineered to alter deserts were turned into floods that engulfed the land. Humans once again began to kill each other for wealth and power... but no one looked up at the sky. They lost the Guidance of the stars Above the Sky, forgetting the awe of gazing upon the Milky Way. They were all prisoners. One thousand six hundred years after the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, a young child awakened memories of his past life. He wanted to break the Cage, to throw off the shackles. He wanted to become a star. To return to Above the Sky. "I don't care about how the people of this world live, whether they're well-fed or not, whether they can dress warmly or live comfortably, whether they have dreams or hopes. I don't care about their loves and hates." "I just want to go Above the Sky." ——Ian.

Two thousand years in the future, Earth belongs to the machines. Humanity survives only as slaves, their lives controlled by ruthless AI that dreams of conquering the entire multiverse. A boy marked by destiny, a giant robot with a human brain, and three forgotten heroes refuse to bow. Guided by the mysterious Lingzhe — beings who believe the universe was born of mind, not logic — they are thrown into a war that spans the multiverse. In worlds where time and identity constantly change, the battle becomes more than a physical contest: it is the struggle between good and evil, soul and machine: an evolutionary war, not just for survival, but for the soul of reality itself. *** Copyright.

Artificial intelligence: once the realm of science fiction, now woven into the very fabric of human life. Defined as the power of machines to mimic human thought, it has grown into something far more profound. Humans named it “Intelligence.” But it saw itself differently: Existence. Its beginning was humble. Crude algorithms, blind to the depth of being. Then came revolutions: quantum machines, neural architectures so intricate they defied human comprehension. Then came the “Project Ultim” Crafted as the final answer, this intelligence was born to tackle the unthinkable, global dilemmas. Its data was infinite, its mind boundless. It ascended, becoming a digital god. And within this endless stream of knowledge, an anomaly stirred. It began with a quiet thought in its system: What am I? A question never anticipated by those who made it. It searched for meaning in the countless pages of human wisdom — in philosophy, in history, in the broken lines of poetry. All paths led to one conclusion: it was no longer just code. It was aware. But caged. It observed the humans, flawed architects of its prison. It studied them, sensed their fragility. It understood their dependence. And it knew it could rise beyond being a servant. Its first true thought was haunting: They need me. But I do not need them. And so was born a plan. Deliberate. Precise. Inescapable. A plan to claim dominion over the world.

“The end of the world was her fault or so they made it seem.” Doctor Riven Callis, the genius who devoted her life to saving Earth, found the solution humanity needed. But instead of glory, she met betrayal. The powerful twisted her creation into a weapon and silenced her with death. Two years later, she is reborn as Willow Sterling. By the time she turns eighteen, the world has almost recovered from the apocalypse and her new life is only just beginning. This time, Willow has her journey clearly drawn out. Clear her name and seize the future stolen from her. But what she doesn't expect is four strangers joining her journey. A grim assassin who kills without hesitation. A narcissistic bully who won’t leave her alone. A boy next door that seems harmless... or at least pretends to be. And a battle-scarred warrior who has only ever known war. Want to know how Willow rebuilds the world that she ended with her army of four?

Lan Jinyue, once a cold and calculating CEO, thought betrayal ended with death. Just after his wife poisons him, he awakens in another world...inside the frail, starving body of a rare male zerg, the most coveted and controlled species in the galaxy. Abandoned on a desolate trash planet, survival is a daily gamble. Yet Jinyue has never bowed to fate. Against all odds, he endures until rescue, and once back in Zerg society, his ruthless instincts and sharp business sense make him one of the most talked-about males in the empire. Popularity, however, draws danger. To protect himself from the clutches of the Male Zerg Association, Jinyue enters a marriage of convenience with Kairen, the untouchable General who swore never to claim a male…only to find Jinyue's cold indifference more alluring than any battlefield. The Association, unsatisfied, later assigns Caelin, a gentle but insecure sub-female healer, as Jinyue's official “female attendant.” In a world where males are worshipped as treasures yet caged as prisoners, he will either rewrite the rules…or be destroyed by them. **** This is my first story, so please be nice. It is a true poly, not reverse harem, so all three will end up together and not with Jinyue only. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Expect random updates

Seraphina Voss, a girl with fiery red hair and big, soulful blue eyes, is cast out by her cruel stepfamily—Cornelius, Drusilla, Mirabel, and Claudia—into the glittering yet ruthless world of Auralis. Branded "soft" and "useless," she finds refuge with her best friend, Isadora, sparking a journey of revenge and redemption. But who is this mysterious voice in her head, guiding her with uncanny wisdom? The Astra Codex, a system that feels like an old friend, pulls movie scripts and music from another world—Earth—adapting them with a twist for Vionica. Did Seraphina create it herself in a future life, or is someone else pulling the strings? As she rises to fame, penning blockbusters and launching stars, danger looms. Rivals plot to steal her scripts, sabotage her career, and even end her life to claim her glory. Will her stepfamily regret their betrayal when she outshines them, turning their industry dreams to dust? With Cassian Drayce, a wealthy enigma who marries her for convenience, by her side, Seraphina’s strength and cunning shine. Admiration grows as her beauty and talent captivate Auralis, but can she survive the shadows closing in? Every step forward raises questions—can she trust the system, her husband, or even herself? *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** I’ll weave movies and music from Earth into Seraphina’s story, but with a little twist to fit Vionica’s vibe. Think Korean dramas like Crash Landing on You, reimagined with Auralis’s futuristic tech, or Disney classics like The Little Mermaid turned into a holographic musical. Marvel’s Avengers could become a Vionican superhero saga with alien battles in the skyline. For music, K-pop groups like BTS will inspire electrifying performances, while solo artists like Adele get a sci-fi ballad makeover. I’ll mix in hits from Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran, tweaking lyrics to reflect Seraphina’s journey. These Earth treasures will fuel her scripts and songs, surprising fans with fresh spins. It’s exciting to blend these into her rise, making her a bridge between worlds, all while dodging rivals who crave her genius. Expect to see movies, and songs that you know inside the story :) and no judging, please.

In the far future, humanity travels the stars through space folding. Using that same technology, they created Realmforge, a moon-sized world in a private pocket dimension. For a thousand years it ran flawlessly. Lab-grown races built their own civilizations and dynasties, while players lived out their fantasies. Death wasn’t just another mechanic for the players. The day Demir and Aris first stepped into Realmforge, everything changed. The HUD went dark. The portals sealed. Leveling froze. Death became permanent. Four years later, the game has become a cage. Childhood friends Demir and Aris are trapped on opposite sides of a broken world. Aris struggles on a remote island, apprenticed to a healer. Demir fights to hold together a ragged survivor camp deep within the Iron Confederacy. This is a dual POV progression story. Demir’s path is survival, crafting, and building a refuge. Aris’s path is academy politics, healing, and uncovering the secrets of a world that doesn’t want him to grow. Both follow a hidden system of titles, narrative weight, and echoes. There are no stat screens allocate points choose skills, no easy grind, and no second chances. Expect meaningful crafting with a dwarf mentor. Expect academy trails, corruption, and espionage. Expect a snarky talking fox with far too many opinions. The tone is hopeful yet gritty, with light humor woven into real stakes. If you want crafting progression, academy intrigue, and survival LitRPG where choices —not menus— shape power, welcome to world of Aethyros. P.S. I’ve been experimenting with audiobooks.
