future

In 2050, humanity shattered an asteroid to save Earth and accidentally cracked open an ancient tomb. The asteroid wasn't rock. It was Aethel a dead planet compressed into a prison by a civilization that sacrificed itself 10,000 years ago to seal away Echidna, a primordial entity of chaos. The fragments became floating Shard-Cities. The energy released, The Cascade, gave humanity supernatural powers. And the Entity's leaking corruption birthed Mana-Beasts that now plague the world. A century later, in 2150, society is rigidly divided by the M-Scale—your innate power level determines your entire life. Nulls toil on Earth. The Gifted serve in the sky. Elite Hunters are global celebrities, battling monsters in broadcasts while unknowingly feeding energy back to the sleeping god below. --- THE PROTAGONIST Arin "Kai" Vajra Rastogi is a 22-year-old M1 "Near-Null" from the Indus Valley Collective. He works as a Cutter disemboweling dead monsters for scraps to support his sick mother and aspiring younger sister. He is invisible, exhausted, and forgotten. Until a freak accident fuses an A-Rank beast-core into his body.

Two hearts untouched, in silence lay, Met where tulips swayed in May. No love had brushed their lonely past, Yet fate had spun its web so fast. A blossom new, so soft, so bright, Unfolded in the golden light. Their souls once cold, now warm and free, Love bloomed where none had thought to be.

Updates on Wednesdays, 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.

Lin Haoran was reborn in 1978 Hong Kong, becoming a wealthy young heir. At this time, the glory of the British financial consortiums was beginning to fade, while Chinese capital was rising rapidly like bamboo after the rain, starting to shine on the international stage. Former British-controlled giants like Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa were becoming prime targets pursued by Chinese entrepreneurs. So, with growing strength, Lin Haoran set his sights on the leading British trading firm—Jardine Matheson... Thank you for the support, friends.

How does one become the Grim Reaper? Sora’ll tell ya the journey is not a light one. In a world where magic and technology exist simultaneously, where guns and swords co-exist, and where travel by both horse and airplane is but a cultural decision. There lives a boy, a boy who has absolutely no clue who he truly is. Sora De Astra, teenager of royalty ... or (..........)? Caught between three realities: one of the past, one of the present, and one of the future. Two souls from two worlds, unable to ascertain the truth of who he really is. Is he Sora? Or is he the stranger from another world, another time? Or perhaps he is someone... No. SOMETHING else entirely? Death herself is maddeningly obsessed with him for reasons unknown. The result?

Lucas transmigrates to a parallel world and is thrilled to discover that many of the classic, brilliant games from his past life don’t exist here. Eager to make his mark, he’s also burdened with an "Emotion Collection System"—where players’ emotions like joy, sorrow, excitement, fear, and anger from his games make him stronger. But why is it so much easier to harvest resentment than happiness? Staring at his point earnings, Lucas is utterly baffled. And so, his career as a game designer takes a… creative turn. In Undertale, players slam their desks and scream: "I’m the one being played by this game!" In Outlast, players shriek: "The locker moved! I quit—NOPE!" In Dark Souls, players cheerfully boot up the game, only to beg: "Leave the Fire Keeper and GET OUT! Take your damn flame with you—we refuse to link it!" In Call of Duty, Soap, Roach, and Ghost meet tragic ends; in Final Fantasy VII, Zack falls in battle and Aerith meets her fate; in Red Dead Redemption, Arthur and John are betrayed… Players collectively rage: "DAMN YOU, LUCAS, YOU SADISTIC OLD FOX! CAN’T YOU BE KINDA TO YOUR PROTAGONISTS?!" When asked by a reporter how he feels about players’ fury, LUCAS smiles faintly: "This isn’t hatred—it’s the world’s players urging me forward! This is LOVE! Thank you all; I’ll keep up the good work!"

It is a story that is meaningless and has no cohesive sense. It will be read by [Reader]s. [Reader] is a creature or a non-creature that has been born from [Nothing] and will read this story cause "Why not?". Finding meaning is the action of creature like these is a losing game. This whole story is about these creatures and non-creature that have made this world and will ruin or play with this world that they've created. There would be no reason behind their action so you might ask why read this pointless story. Well, i don't know. Just say "Why not?" and read it. That wouldn't hurt too much i think.

Leo had a problem. Don't be like Leo! It wasn't that he was poor. It wasn't that he was unlucky. It was that he had been cursed, or blessed by the Accidental Tycoon System. The rules were deceptively simple. Any money he lost on an investment would be returned to him, doubled. His life's new mission was crystal clear. He had to go bankrupt. In a high-tech world of S-Rank Heroes, magic, and newly-contacted alien civilizations, this should have been the easiest thing to achieve in the galaxy. He just had to become the biggest, most spectacular loser the universe had ever seen. So, he tried. Oh, how he tried... He threw billions at publishing a dungeon guide written by a 10-year-old. The maps were in crayon, and it listed the final boss as a Big Grumpy Badger. [Breaking: New S-Rank dungeon called 'The Whispering Labyrinth' appears! All high-tech mapping drones fail. A lost F-Rank porter used the crayon guide... and it's 100% accurate. The final boss is a 50-foot divine badger. The Galactic Union has declared the guide a 'holy text' for exploration!] He bought the galaxy's most useless moon, planning to build a 'Museum of Paint'. [Alert: Ancient magical ley-lines discovered under the moon's surface! It's the only place in the universe that can safely grow the 'Star-Lotus,' the key ingredient for immortality!] To the Intergalactic Hero's Guild, the Magic Academies, and the Alien Federations, Leo was the god of investment whose every move was like 5D chess that ordinary people couldn't understand. Heroes would soar with his sponsorship. Alien emperors offered him their daughters' hands in marriage for a single 'tip'. But Leo just stared at his bank account, which now displayed his wealth that he couldn't use on himself, with tears streaming down his face. "Please," he cried, "I'm trying to fail! Why won't you just let me be poor?!"

Lieutenant Commander Cole was a thirty-four-year-old from a world where Star Trek was merely fiction, until a terminal gasp transported him into a younger, optimized body aboard the USS Enterprise-D. He has been gifted three intrinsic abilities: Energy Manipulation, Enhanced Physicality, and Technology Assimilation—powers that function not through a game-like system, but through the organic expansion of his consciousness. Using his meta-knowledge of the 24th century, Cole intervenes in the Armus incident on Vagra II, saving Tasha Yar from her canonical death and forging a deep, complicated bond with her. As he balances his duties as an engineer with the fragment of Armus still tethered to his chest, he must navigate the ethical complexities of his "Traveler-like" potential. From managing the emergence of the Moriarty AI to preparing for the Borg threat, Cole is no longer just a passenger in history; he is the ship's designated expert on artificial consciousness and the variable that will determine if the Federation survives the coming storms.

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?

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.
