future

Fame is not a reward—it’s a relationship. When six-year-old Han Yura is discovered, she doesn’t fear the stage. She feels at home on it. As she grows from child actress to national darling, fashion icon, and eventually a global entertainer, Yura learns that staying visible requires emotional intelligence, consistency, and joy—not suffering. Set against the fast-moving Korean entertainment industry and the global spotlight beyond it, this story follows Yura’s steady rise alongside deep friendships, healthy love, and a life built in public without breaking in private. Warm, aspirational, and cinematic, this is a story about choosing to be seen—and liking who you become because of it.

Just like the title says, "It's a life simulation in a dark fantasy world." Not much else to add here. The first chapter covers what you'd expect me to explain here anyway.

After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer. Helped by his missing father, Ves has obtained the mysterious Mech Designer System that can help him rise in the galaxy and beyond. His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits. This is the golden age of mechs. This is the golden age of humanity. The question is, will it last?

五年前，姐姐苏晴在雾屿岛的海神祭之夜“意外”坠海。 五年后，我收到一封匿名信：“她不是意外死亡。” 我放下一切回到这座封闭的孤岛，却发现每个人都戴着面具： 青梅竹马的医生陆屿，对我温柔守护，却在每个深夜避开我的追问； 姐姐的前男友林浩，带着愧疚归来，却对那晚的争执三缄其口； 热心的老邻居张婶，欲言又止，似乎目睹了不该看见的秘密； 就连当年办案的老警察，也在退休档案里留下隐晦的标记…… 我在姐姐的阁楼找到被撕毁的日记，残页上写着： “祭典不是祈福，是赎罪。” “他在说谎——所有人都在说谎。” “如果我不在了，去灯塔找守塔人。” 当海神祭的钟声再次敲响，我发现姐姐的死只是冰山一角。 这座被海雾笼罩的岛屿，守护着一个跨越十年的黑暗秘密： 失踪的母亲、被篡改的尸检报告、三代人默契的沉默…… 而那个我最信任的人，或许正是将我推向深渊的手。 真相如潮汐，每次退去都带走一部分海岸。 这次，我决定在涨潮前，挖出埋葬在沙滩下的所有骸骨。

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!"

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.

When the "Rebellious Brat" is summoned home... a storm of chaos flavored with the scent of an old flame begins! 'Ice,' a cheeky Computer Engineering student, is forced to trade his high-tech city life for the streets of Nakhon Pathom. Instead of running code, he’s now chopping chicken at his father’s famous stall. But his boring new routine is flipped upside down when he keeps running into a massive, terrifying man lurking outside the local convenience store every single day. 'Leo,' a 32-year-old tattoo artist, is covered in ink and radiates an aura so cold it makes grown men back away. But behind that rugged, "bad boy" exterior lies one massive weakness: the boy next door he’s been pining for since they were kids. Now that Ice is back, Leo is ready to trade his tattoo needle for bags of iced green tea and favorite cakes. His mission? To "persistently woo" and win over the brat who once owned his heart. "Aren't you tired yet? I curse you out every day, yet you still have the nerve to show your face!" "Can you stop scolding me for a second? You’re as fierce as a little pup, aren't you?" One is a stubborn brat with innocent eyes; the other is a fierce-faced "simp" who’s completely whipped for his childhood crush. Join the journey of this "Grown-up Golden Retriever" as he tries to break through the wall of "selective amnesia" and survive a terrifying father-in-law. It’s time to prove that no matter how tough he looks... his heart will always lose to this boy.

The Universe is a Tree, and Arthur is its only Key!" Millions of years ago, the 'Ancient World Tree' gave birth to three realms: Leaf, Flower, and Fruit. From the heart (Core) of this tree, an extremely rare species was born, through whom the divine power of the tree itself flowed. They were the parents of the 'Cosmic Egg'—the guardians of that mysterious egg, which is the key to the supreme power of the three universes. A Great Destruction changed everything, but that key has now returned in the form of Arthur. The 'Cosmic Egg' has merged within Arthur, granting him that ancient power for which even the gods crave. While the rest of the world's hunters are evolving themselves with mediocre powers of 2 or 3 leaves, Arthur faces the most difficult challenge. To evolve, he must find rare 7-leaf remains, the fragrance of divine flowers, and the taste of immortal fruits. Arthur must reclaim his lost heritage and confront the forces that destroyed his (cosmic egg)parents and his world. This journey, starting from the Leaf and reaching the Fruit, is the pinnacle of adventure, revenge, and evolution. The grand saga begins... Are you ready to taste the fruit that can turn you into a God?

ORIGINAL STORY. NOT A TRANSLATION. MC IS OVERPOWERED. SOMETIMES THE MC IS NOT THE FOCUS OF THE STORY. Sypnosis: What do you think happens when all hope is lost? When there is a profound imbalance in the universe, causing waves of suffering that ripple through countless lives, all because the chains of selfishness and ignorance bind individuals together, rendering them powerless? In a typical scenario, this disarray would lead to the cataclysmic destruction of the universe. A cosmos that lacks equilibrium has forsaken its core purpose and becomes unworthy of its own existence. A flawed creation. Yet, the annihilation of the universe entails more than just the end of one reality; it also signifies the erasure of other galaxies, countless innocent beings, and the rich tapestry of life that flourishes within them. Even the universe itself, which cherishes its creations with an impartial love, would be loath to take such drastic measures. For this type of scenario, the universe decides it needs a new person who can distribute and embody the concept of Hope. Kardia, a seemingly normal guy, whose name means "Heart" in the old Greek language, was the person that the universe decided it needed to bring to bring "hope to this new world."

[ON Break For 2 Month till March ] Discord Link: https://discord.gg/G4kJnNXxp Samar, middle age man also a top rank gamer find him self reincarnated in his favorite game as an extra character The Game That he Played of Eight year, The Worlds of Hunter . Arcade Academy trains the heirs of empires, clans, and guilds to become the next generation of heroes. But Michael Willson is different. With memories of this world as a game, he isn’t here to play the protagonist’s role — he’s here to survive, outsmart fate, and carve a place of his own. When every trial twists under his hidden knowledge, rivals begin to whisper his name. Is he ally, enemy… or the greatest threat Arcade has ever seen? Even it means to take the place of the Hero! -------------------- In a world where strength determines destiny, youths across kingdoms and clans dream of entering Arcadia Academy, the greatest institute for hunters, knights, and magi. 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. Every trial, every event, every hidden danger — he knows them all. And he intends to use this knowledge not to play the hero, but to survive. 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. His choices ripple beyond expectation: saving people he was never meant to, stealing victories meant for others, and twisting the threads of fate that once belonged to Arcadia’s destined protagonists. Now, as the trial ends and the cadets march toward the Academy’s grand halls, alliances begin to form and rivalries sharpen. Leon Lionheart, heir of justice. Selena Veylan, royal shadow. 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

Years later. "My current flying speed is 122,682 meters per second, and my power burst is..."

"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.
