future

Luciel has no past worth remembering and no future worth chasing. He sees himself as absurd and powerless against the fate driving him to the ground. Yet somehow, that same cruel fate, which once pushed him into insanity and nihilism, gave him a Stanza and turned him into a Resonator. Now he wields fire brighter than anyone, but a bright flame casts the darkest shadow. As Luciel embodies the Divine Fire, his ambition grows as unchecked as it is hidden. He has the means to correct what is wrong — the shattered world, the regressed, the sins, the wars that civilizations feed themselves on — but the line between savior and ruin has never concerned him. If one day, he finds the only enemy he has to face is himself, will the fire that saved him be the same one that consumes everything he's built?

Blanca Frostine transmigrated into the very beast-world novel she’d been reading. Great. Fantastic. Even better? This world had a massive problem. In this empire, beastmen suffered from a condition called Hysteria. When their emotions spiked, they lost control and turned into rampaging monsters. When their emotions dipped too low, they reverted into small, helpless beast cubs. Therapy existed, technically, in the form of rare energy stones—but there was a catch. The stones only worked if they were hand-carved into the exact animal form of the beastman. The more realistic the sculpture, the stronger the calming effect. The more lifelike the carving, the more times it could be reused. Which was where Blanca’s luck kicked in. In her previous life, she’d been a legendary sculptor—wealthy, talented, and famously difficult to deal with. Her works were so vivid they felt like they were breathing. People waited months just to beg for a commission, and because she had zero patience for nonsense, the art world had crowned her with a fitting title: The Sculptress. So when Blanca realized she could carve energy stones better than anyone in this world, romance was not her first concern. Powerful beast husbands? Fated mates? Tragic, handsome generals with emotional damage? She waved all of it away. “I’ll date later,” she decided calmly. “After I get rich.” And so, instead of a love story, she opened a shop. A small, suspiciously low-effort store suddenly appeared on the Regional Network, selling palm-sized sculptures carved with terrifying realism. Just looking at the screen was enough to calm raging emotions. The empire lost its mind overnight. Orders flooded in. Nobles panicked. The military took notes. Unfortunately, the shop owner was… Lazy, sharp-tongued, and deeply uninterested in customer satisfaction. “No rush orders.” “No refunds.” “Stop messaging me at 3 a.m.” “And stop flirting in the reviews.” Still, her sculptures sold out within seconds. What Blanca didn’t expect was the growing number of powerful beastmen who began appearing in her life—each claiming they just needed emotional treatment, each lingering a little too long, each staring at her hands like they were something far more dangerous than weapons. After all, in an empire full of beasts who lost control when their emotions ran wild, Blanca Frostine was the only one who could calm them with a touch. And while she kept insisting she wasn’t interested in love— Love, unfortunately, seemed very interested in her. “Screw finding a husband,” Blanca thought, carving another masterpiece. “…Why do they keep lining up anyway?”

I died on a Tuesday. Stepped off a curb, didn't look, end of story. Except it wasn't. I woke up in a stone room in a body that wasn't mine, Caiden Knox, minor noble, House Knox, recently deceased via fever, recently accepted to Avar Academy, the most elite institution in the kingdom of Aethoria. The real Caiden read that letter and gave up. Can't blame him honestly. A nobody minor noble walking into a school full of kids born with Gold and Platinum mana cores? The odds weren't great. But I'm not Caiden Knox. My name is Kane. And when the world's system tried to assign me a class and failed, when it spat out an anomaly error and loaded something called the Sovereign System instead, I stopped worrying about the odds. The Architect ability lets me build any skill I want. Active, passive, combat, magic. No restrictions. No upper limit. And my mana core? The assessors ran the test three times. The instrument broke on the third attempt. They wrote down "unclassified" and moved on because they didn't have another option. I have six months before the academy doors open. Six months alone, no guidance, no allies, nothing but the wilderness outside my estate and whatever I can kill in it. They put me in S class because they didn't know what else to do with me. That's fine. They'll figure it out eventually.

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.

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.

The world ended in blood and fire. When the Apocalypse arrived, humanity was powerless against the monsters that crawled out of the gates. Cities collapsed, nations fell, and billions died. Rex was one of the many who struggled to survive in that broken world. Weak. Powerless. Forgotten. He watched his friends die. He watched the world burn. And in the end… he died as well. But fate gave him a second chance. Rex awakens two years before the Apocalypse begins—back in 2025. This time, something is different. A mysterious system appears before his eyes. [SYSTEM INITIALIZATION COMPLETE] [EVOLUTION POTENTIAL: INFINITE] In a world where strength determines survival, Rex now holds a power that defies all limits. Monsters. Dungeons. Ancient powers. Hidden conspiracies. As the Apocalypse approaches once again, Rex begins a journey that will shake the world itself. This time, he will not die helplessly. This time… He will evolve. And when the gates finally open, the world will witness the rise of a being beyond humanity. The Apocalypse King.

Code Abyss: Resimulation The world did not end in a single catastrophic collapse. It ended because of something humanity created. In the era of Tyrak, a global system governed nearly every aspect of life. The world became stable—predictable—almost perfect. Until it fractured. The sky split. Reality destabilized. Existence shattered into seven zones, and those who failed to adapt became something else entirely. From the ruins of that collapse, 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 the world is not certain it should allow him to exist. Marked by an unknown seal and drawn into the domain of the Imperatrix—beings who govern the structure of reality itself—Kael becomes part of a system far older and far more deliberate than humanity ever understood. Fragments are scattered. Laws are shifting. And every choice he makes is measured. The system offers restoration. But it does not promise mercy. As reality begins to bend once more, Kael must decide whether he is reclaiming the future—or repeating a design that was never his to control. Because when the world stands on the edge of resimulation, not every destruction is meant to be prevented. And not every savior intends to save.

--- “Black Hole” was a boy with exceptional intelligence. But that was not all; when he was ten years old, he discovered that whenever he looked into someone’s eyes, he could see the most impactful memory that person had… and even stranger, he could feel the emotions that person experienced at that moment. This ability did not make Black happy; instead, it increased his suffering. His lack of answers caused a deep pain in his soul. And the hardest question for him was: Why was he created as a human who stands above everything else in this world? Black no longer felt comfortable making eye contact, so he began to limit his interactions with people. Even so, he continued searching for answers. His research had surpassed the scientific level of the planet by decades, but he still suffered from his ignorance about the secret of his eyes. Feeling frustrated, he reduced the time he spent on research and turned to a bit of entertainment. While switching between games… he came across something that might be the true key to what he was searching for. ---

In a universe where worlds are not conquered—but earned—humanity survives by turning planets into battlegrounds. Every world is ranked. Every creature evolves. Every victory reshapes the stars. And at sixteen, every citizen must enter the system… or be left behind. David Wyn was never meant to stand out. The son of independent explorers, he was raised on the edges of civilization—taught how to observe, adapt, and survive. But when his parents vanish on a volatile world called Verdalis, they leave behind something far more dangerous than answers: A book that should not exist. A voice that should not speak. And a system that does not belong to any known bloodline. At the Academy—the proving ground for humanity’s future—power is everything. The Twelve rule by lineage. Heirs bend elements, command shadows, and carry legacies written in conquest. And those without a crest? They’re expected to fall in line… or fall behind. David does neither. When his awakening is masked as a failure, he becomes invisible to the very system that defines strength. But hidden power doesn’t stay hidden. Not when monsters evolve mid-battle. Not when planets shift under the weight of a single decision. And not when the strongest bloodlines begin to notice… something is wrong. On Kharos Vale, a training mission turns into a nightmare. A predator consumes its own kind and becomes something greater. An ecosystem begins to spiral. And David makes a choice that changes everything. He doesn’t fight to win. He fights to stop collapse. Now the system is watching. The heirs are questioning. And something older than the Concord has begun to stir. Because David wasn’t chosen by lineage. He wasn’t granted power. He was permitted. And in a universe where strength determines who owns entire worlds— David Wyn may become the one thing no system can classify.

Updates on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. In the 36th century, humanity rules the solar system. War, poverty, and scarcity are relics of a distant past. Cities hum with limitless energy. Hunger and illiteracy have been engineered out of existence. Society is stable and prosperous. But peace has its own consequences. In a world without scarcity, conflict becomes ideology. Extremist sects and insurgent movements rise in the vacuum, threatening the fragile order billions now take for granted. Stretch is a marshal — one of the elite civil enforcers tasked with preserving stability across the system. Analytical, disciplined, and dangerously adaptive in combat, he believes in the structure he was raised in. Until a new organization emerges. One unlike the others. Their methods targeted and precise. Their goals unclear. As attacks escalate and loyalties fracture, Stretch finds himself pushed beyond protocol, beyond rank, and beyond certainty as he tries to protect all that matters to him. Warning: Some gore, violence and the occasional swear word. Updates on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. Cover art from gt39 on Pixabay

A student with selective memory loss was trapped inside a glass capsule floating in outer space. She discovered that there were 23 other students in the same situation. As she recalls how that happened, a hologram named Author appeared. It announced that they were the 24 chosen players to participate in a survival game with 3 levels, different stages, and distinctive game categories. They must play life-threatening games while gaining their memories with the goal to be the Triumphant and claim the Tri-Prize–the Wealth, Health, and Stealth. What seemed to be a typical survival game hides a truth far more than just surviving.
