Ryzel, a nineteen-year-old guide, was expecting to marry Dwight, but the man changed his mind a month before the wedding. “I’m sorry, Ryzel. I wanted a nice and compassionate wife, so I am going to marry Sean instead. Unlike you, who were usually preoccupied with other things, he always showed concern for me. Not to mention how highly compatible we are with one another. I've actually met him before, but he persuaded me to date you because he feels sorry for you." Without even waiting for Ryzel's response, the man left. Ryzel, who was left behind, can't even bother caring about his heart because he's been dealing with a lot of issues as a result of the sudden rejection. He was turning 20 in a month, which meant he had to be married according to the federation's laws. After he reaches the age of 20, the government's assistance will cease, leaving him to fend for his own expenses. If he is not married to a powerful sentinel, he will not be able to reclaim his inheritance and will be forced to die on the front lines. He instantly began looking for solutions, but his hope kept dwindling as his birthday approached without a proper solution to his problems. On the day he felt all hope was lost, his ex’s superior, General Lewis, proposed to him. "I'm not gentle and kind; my priority probably won’t be you; our compatibility may not be high; do you still want to marry me?" Ryzel questioned, fixing his gaze on the general. "It's okay, I don't need my wife to be gentle and kind. Our compatibility is also high. You can focus on your studies, job, or dreams. As long as you remember that you are my guide." “Okay, let’s get married.” ------------------------ This is the story of Ryzel's advancement in career and love life, even with all the troubles surrounding him.

In a dystopian city torn between technology and history—where society is regulated and obedience is hummed through the streets—Mara survives by staying unnoticed, haunted by nightmares she doesn’t fully understand. Her life changes when she picks up something she was not supposed to and meets a hooded man. When someone close to her disappears without leaving a trace—records, places, even routines forgetting they ever existed—Mara is left holding onto what the city refuses to remember. What follows is a slow unraveling: distorted realities, fractured memories, broken timelines, and people who should not exist. A psychological mystery where care lingers like a defect, reality bends under pressure, and forgetting is the most dangerous force of all—in a world where feelings are anomalies.

Identifying Extra Terrestrials is a comprehensive introductory textbook designed for students undertaking formal study in Extra-Terrestrial Identification and Foreign Affairs. Endorsed by the examination board, the book provides structured coverage of the first and second terms of the course and is suitable for use in both classroom and independent study contexts. The textbook presents a wide range of extra-terrestrial species and subspecies, organised alphabetically to allow for ease of reference and neutral comparison across planetary systems and habitats. Each entry outlines key classification features, physical and behavioural characteristics, and relevant contextual information, including habitat, origin, and interaction considerations. Where appropriate, links are made to broader diplomatic, scientific, and operational implications. Clear explanations of technical terminology are supported by a detailed glossary, while regular review questions and selected past examination questions help students consolidate understanding and develop exam technique. An accompanying CD and additional resources further support learning and revision. By combining clear structure with academic rigour, Identifying Extra Terrestrials equips future cadets with the foundational knowledge and analytical skills required to identify unfamiliar species accurately, communicate effectively across intergalactic contexts, and succeed in both assessment and further study within this evolving and significant field.

The world did not end with a single, catastrophic collapse. It ended because of something humanity created itself. In the era of Tyrak, a global system governed nearly every aspect of life. The world became stable, predictable, almost perfect—until one day, that order fractured. The sky split apart. The logic of reality lost its footing. Existence shattered into seven zones, giving birth to beings that failed to adapt to the world’s new laws. Amid the remnants of that ruin, a man awakens from cryostasis. He does not remember how the world ended. He does not know why he survived. His name is Kael Vieron—and his existence soon becomes an anomaly. Kael is cast into the realm of the Imperatrix—entities who rule over the structure of reality itself, far beyond the reach of human logic. A world that rejects most remnants of the old existence, yet inexplicably allows Kael to remain. As if his presence still holds a role yet unfinished. Then, a system appears—offering a way forward. It speaks of scattered fragments. Of a world that can be restored. Of choices that can still be made. But the further Kael moves forward, the clearer it becomes that this world is not merely broken—it is being guided. Every decision carries consequences that feel unnervingly precise. Every truth leaves behind a disturbing gap. In a world where reality can be rewritten, and salvation holds more than one meaning, Kael must confront a question no one ever taught him to answer: Is he truly choosing his own path—or merely walking along a road prepared long before he ever awakened? Because when the world stands on the brink of repetition, not every destruction is meant to be stopped. And not every savior comes to save.

The black dragon that rose from the depths of the South Sea unleashed an apocalyptic tsunami... Flame demons destroyed city after city made of steel and concrete, calmly departing from the center of nuclear explosions... Alien gods attempted to rule the entire galaxy... This is a future world where human technology is highly advanced. It is also an era that sparked a frenzy of Life Evolution in the Martial Path. Li Yuan, a Martial Path student on the verge of taking his college entrance exams, struggled to advance in this world while harboring the peculiar Divine Palace capable of envisioning the galaxy. Years later. "My current flying speed is 122,682 meters per second, and my power burst is..." Li Yuan flew at extreme speeds through the atmosphere about 180 kilometers above the surface of Blue Star, his cold eyes fixed on the massive creature at the dark void's edge, resembling the mythological dragon: "You, must be the strongest among all the invading Demigod life forms." "It's just unfortunate that I can now be called... Martial God!"

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.

This was the great era of vast warships and the Star River, a time when the multi-universe was shattered and countless Cosmic Fragments were scattered across the void, forming the boundless Shattered Starry Sea. Immortal Domain Dao soldiers, mechanical gods, golden giants, wizard Dominators... An endless array of strange civilizations. Starry Sea Oddity, Genetic Potions, exoskeletal armors, Floating Land Origin... Treasures that could be found everywhere. Spectral Shuttle, Spectral Airship, Spectral Warship, Escort Ships, Battleships, Star-Annihilating Starships, hyperdimensional mother ships... The clearly stratified Xinhuo warships. Song Chi held a Zhu Tian Ruins Market in his hand and engaged in interstellar trade with the countless peoples of the Starry Sea. What? Titanium Crystals are worthless in your Star Domain? I'll take them all, damn it, this is a strategic resource! You call this a chunk of iron? This is Mixed Elemental Copper, the ultimate Enhancement resource! Ordinary ship cannon? Isn't this a golden Star-Annihilating Cannon? Quick... I'll buy it! ... Stretching across the stars, starting from the flame of human civilization.

If the gods no longer bestow their mercy, then let us kindle bonfires, carry great swords, become skeletons, or heroes of legend.

A new work from the author of 'My Senior Brother is Too Steady', welcome to enjoy it! ------------------ In the instant the Earth exploded, the fear of death finally transformed into physical torment, the agony of being scorched seared into the deepest recesses of Yang Ming's memory. "The universe is the abyss." Yang Ming murmured softly among the stars. [PS: Not a game narrative; early game settings will have a complete logical explanation later in the plot. Starting anew on a different track, this isn't in the style of previous works so don't promote it in the old way, treat me as a newcomer. Just entering the domain of interstellar sci-fi, corrections on details are welcome. ]

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!)

At the opening ceremony of Sea Blue Star Basic Military Academy, as the representative of the incoming freshmen, Guding proclaimed his grand ambition in front of all the teachers and students: "I'm Guding! I'm gonna become the Man with the Highest Bounty in the entire Cosmic Sea!" -------------------------------------------- It is an era of artificial superintelligences, interstellar travel, gene medicine, and virtual reality worlds. Far into Earth's future, 15-year-old Gu Ding is a student of Cerulean Military Academy by day, and tavern waiter by night. His ambition: Become the space pirate with the highest bounty offered by the Universal Federation Government. With the help of Neptune, a neonate super-intelligence, Guding finds himself thrust into a galaxy of shadowy organizations, political under dealings, and otherworldly forces that lie beyond human comprehension…

Dreams are… a reality that only those who are capable can speak about. This was an era marked by the births of geniuses! This was an era where heroes could be found everywhere! The fierce conflict between the aristocrats and the civilians, the open and veiled battles between the Federation and the Empire, the restlessly lurking extraterrestrials… When the principles of truth were within the range of battleship cannons, when order had no place in this world… Mu Fan, with the mysterious intelligent life “Black” and his unwavering will, fiercely tore open the magnificent Great Galaxy Era!

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.

"Don't come back! Don't return!" That was the last message Tom received from Earth before the signal died. Stranded 15 billion kilometers from the sun, he has enough supplies to survive alone for fifteen years. But Tom doesn't want to die alone. He wants to conquer. Desperate, Tom activates the ship’s biological livestock tank. He doesn't breed cattle; he clones himself. When the clone opens its eyes, Tom realizes he hasn't just created a helper, He has unlocked a Hive Mind. One consciousness. Multiple bodies. Parallel processing. More clone, more processing power But power has a price. With twelve clones now awake, his fifteen-year food supply has shrunk to a death sentence: One year. Forced into a corner, Tom must lead his clone army to the frozen, airless surface of Loshen Star. Armed only with 19th-century steam technology and sheer grit, he must ignite the fires of industry in absolute zero. He is no longer just an astronaut. He is the Swarm. And he will turn this dead planet into a civilization of one.

Sol Mercer suddenly finds himself dropped into the world of Zenless Zone Zero—right onto the "big mine" of Nicole from the Cunning Hares. To avoid being an illegal resident, he has no choice but to join the Cunning Hares. Just as Nicole is about to put him to work serving tea and water, hoping he’ll latch onto a rich benefactor, the system arrives right on schedule. His first reward? A tenfold-enhanced "Yan Shuangying" template. · Ten times the limits of human physique · Mastery of all vehicles · Mastery of all weapons But the most crucial abilities are: · Concept Skill - Bullets of the Eagle: "The Eagle's bullets are without limit—how many I say there are, there are." · Concept Skill - God of Gambling: "I rarely lose, and when I do, it's only one silver dollar." · Concept Skill - Duality of Life and Death: "Life and death, an endless cycle—I live for you, you die for me!" With just this template alone, he can already stand firm in this world. But the system holds even more: Morax, the Blonde Traveler of the Abyss, the Sentient Stellaron—Caelus... Nicole, ever defiant: "One more bet! If I lose, you’ll face the thunder!" Anby, dead serious: "A kiss after battle is common sense—it’s in all the movies!" Ellen, blushing fiercely: "A shark’s teeth… are very sharp, you know?" Belle, emanating dark energy: "As a Proxy, tying you up at home is perfectly reasonable, right?"

[Cyberpunk + Edgerunners Fanfic] Lin Mo still remembers the original tagline of the game: “In 2077, my city was voted the worst place to live in America.” Now, he stands atop a skyscraper, gazing down at the city under the cover of night. In the corporate plazas, flames engulf the towers of various megacorps. Crowds surge below, screams and wails echoing through the chaos. And yet, Lin Mo feels nothing but boredom. Maggots feast on marrow. The innocent are puppeteered as flesh and fuel — expendable kindling for the blaze. This city is rotten to its very core. So no — fire alone isn’t enough. Fire may scatter the darkness, but when it dies out, it cannot bring light. Darkness endures. That’s why he must gather the strength of everyone — and become the eternal daylight that this city so desperately needs! An overwhelming light casts the deepest shadow. That light… is the sun! … Through a simulator, Lin Mo arrives in the world of Cyberpunk. At first, he believes he can carve out a place for himself in Night City. But then— “Lin Mo, about that gig…” “Hey Lin Mo, I just picked up a second-hand ride for my garage, take a look…” “Lin Mo, your name’s all over Night City these days! Why don’t you take a look at this job while you’re at it?” Damn it— I’ve become the biggest sucker in town!

When godlike beings descended without warning, they drowned the world in an endless winter and unleashed beasts that tore civilization apart. Humanity collapsed, surviving only by gathering in the bastion of humanity: Arcem Futri, a final refuge carved out of ice, steel, and desperation. In its slums, where hunger kills faster than the cold, three boys cling to each other like the last embers of a dying fire. Though eventually separated by paths their unification will bring forth change to the very course of fate and reality. Through monsters, gods, and the brutality of winter, something new will be born.

A hundred years after humanity awakened to superpowers, the world no longer resembles what came before. Order has given way to dominance. Morality has been replaced by force. Power now answers only to will—and to those strong enough to impose it. In this hyper-evolved society, Elijah stands apart: a young man who has devoted everything to reshaping a broken world. But the cost of change is steep. Each step forward demands something taken from him—principles, mercy, restraint. As the line between saviour and tyrant begins to blur, Elijah must confront a terrifying question: if the world is finally changed at all, will there be anything left of the man who pays the price?

I was an ordinary man until the day my phone asked a simple question. Would you like to see how you die? I said yes. I saw my own death. Now I have 341 days left. I can see fragments of the future — moments that haven’t happened yet, endings that are not set in stone. Every choice I make changes the outcome, but every change destabilizes the world a little more. I don’t know who killed me. I don’t know why. And I don’t know how many futures I can watch before something breaks. This is not a story about saving the world. It’s a story about surviving it — one decision at a time.
