magic

In a world where supernatural powers exist. Each person is given a mark called "Sigil" a glowing mark etched into their skin, granting supernatural abilities. These Sigils define one's role, rank, and fate in a society built on ancient power. From weak to overpowered powers, each Sigil is unique and unfairly ranked from F to SSS, capable of evolving to stages. Devon Ashbourne is an illegitimate heir to one of the most prestigious families in the nation, renowned for producing legendary Sigil bearers from SS-rank to A-rank members. However, when Devon finally awakened to a C-rank Sigil power called "Martial Prowess," the first in his bloodline, he was labeled as a failure and ostracized. In a family that worshipped arcane power and supernatural mastery, a fighter’s Sigil was seen as primitive. Devon was cast aside and shunned as a disappointment by his own family. But what his family failed to see was the existence of a second Sigil, hidden in its nature, and its true capabilities unknown. It was a power unlike anything they had ever encountered, silent and dormant… yet brimming with potential. Now fueled by anger and betrayal, Devon begins his relentless ascent. Not just to prove them wrong, but to become strong enough to make them regret ever casting him aside. With every step, every scar, and every victory, he moves closer to his revenge. ——————— This novel is a general balance of fantasy, fighting, and 18+ scenes. +18 scenes will appear in later chapters.

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment — tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena’s gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena’s world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans — pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena’s journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances — a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. But as the hunt closes in and a single map — older than any empire — threatens to upend the order of the world, Elena must face an impossible choice. To protect what she loves, she may have to destroy everything she once believed about truth, power, and the very shape of the Earth. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Cartographer’s Heresy is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world — they define it — and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.

They were forged to protect the divine. Now they are marked as heretics. The Ashbinders half-divine guardians once bound by flame and oath were the last line between the realms and the unraveling Veil. Chosen by the gods. Honored by the stars. Until the impossible happened: The Astral Nexus shattered. Falsely accused of treason and attempted ascension, the Ashbinders are betrayed mid-ritual and hunted by Seraphim executioners. Branded with forbidden power, their leader Kaelen Virel becomes the first mortal in centuries touched by the Ascendant Flame a force the gods swore to erase from existence. Now fugitives in a world that once worshiped them, the Ashbinders uncover a terrifying truth: The gods are dying. Their thrones are empty. And everything the Ashbinders were sworn to protect… was a lie. To survive, they must defy the divine order, awaken forgotten magic, and wage a rebellion that begins not with armies but with a single spark. One that could ignite the Hollow Throne, reshape the fate of all realms, and prove once and for all: The divine never feared betrayal. They feared evolution.

Welcome to planet Talvaris, your generic isekai world filled with magic, dragons, and voluptuous female elves who look like they escaped from an illustrators search history. Everything here is as beautiful as the goddess Celes envision it, if you just ignore the slavery and racism on the corner. Unfortunately, maintaining this picturesque fantasy realm costs divine power. Luckily for the goddess, divine power can be charged by the Talvarians' prayer. And nothing beats the high-quality prayer of a Talvarian during the act of killing or being killed. That’s why the occasional demon invasions are needed, oh and the OP otherworlder hero is also needed to tone down the invasion. Nobody wants the sweet Talvarians to get wiped out, right? But this time the celestial HR department makes a mistake. Alex Solomon is not a teenager, not handsome, and definitely not a Japanese. He is just a regular pot belly millennials who spend most of his time looking at the screen every day, just like the one who reading this now. Totally doesn't meet the goddess's standards. Hence, the beautiful but angry goddess cursed Alex Solomon to become an orc and banish him to the Demon Kingdom with nothing but a ability to access Earth internet. Stuck among demons, Alex Solomon decide if the goddess wants him to be a monster, he’ll be the worst kind possible – a monster with ideas. Armed with memes, wikipedia articles, and misquoted great thinker, he and the demon army set out on a quest for revenge by doing the most disruptive thing that have been proven on earth: Building world peace, freedom, and democracy across Talvaris. One Tomahawk missile at a time.

Some memories don’t leave us. They just sit quietly in one corner of the heart, waiting- for a smell, a voice, a place- to wake them up again. The Scent of Our Yesterday started as a simple village-to-city love story: two kids, a childhood bond, a breakup of distance, a reunion in a busy modern world. As I kept writing, Ha-rin and Jae-hyun refused to stay “simple”. Their love kept circling back like time itself… so the story also grew into something bigger. This series is about: childhood innocence in a small village, college fights and ego, corporate politics and pressure, misunderstandings, second chances, and one love that keeps coming back, even when time, destiny, and people try to break it. Later, you’ll also see a touch of mystery and time—loops, echoes, fragments of “what if we had chosen differently?”. But at its heart, it is still the same: one boy, one girl, one long journey of growing up, getting hurt, healing, and finding their way back to each other without losing themselves. I wanted the story to feel close to us- emotional, little funny, a bit dramatic, but always honest. If while reading, you remember your first crush, your campus days, your family, your old village, or that one person who still feels like “home” somewhere in your heart- that is enough for me. Thank you for staying with Ha-rin and Jae-hyun… through their yesterdays, echoes, and tomorrows. -- qwrhsth4

Sous la pluie battante de Kurosawa, cité où la lumière des néons cache les ombres du sang, un nom faisait trembler tout un pays : Ryo Tenshima, chef du gang Black Heel, un roi sans couronne régnant sur les ruelles et les âmes perdues.

Mais cette fois, ce n’est pas la peur qu’il compte instaurer — c’est le silence. > « Je ne veux pas dominer… je veux que plus rien ne me défie. » Ainsi commence la légende du Roi Déchu, l’homme couronné par le Néant lui-même.

Dangerous Omega Series #1 After dying in a horrific hate crime, Suki, a certified Fudanshi and a covert celestial fox spirit living in the human realm undergoes a mysterious transmigration. He was unwittingly transported into the very world depicted in "Their S-Class Affairs," an intense, hardcore and smut-ty BL manhua. The story that he was reading before his untimely demise. Suki, as the legendary nine-tailed fox, would have an easy and comfortable life if he possessed a body of a nameless extra. He could watch the betrayal and messy lives of the characters in the Manhua without throwing himself into the eye of the storm. However, fate proves harsh for a demon spirit like Suki as he unexpectedly becomes the omega husband of the enigmatic alpha and wild stallion ML, Bai Tingfeng. In the panels of the manhua, Bai Tingfeng harbors no affection for his vain and irresponsible husband. Suki, who now assumes the identity of the renowned model omega, Shen Yuan, knows this all too well. There's no way in hell that he can rely on the S-Class alpha's help in consolidating his new body. Since Suki can't acquire help, he doesn't want to be affected by whatever drama that the ML's halo would attract. Who would want to get all the trouble without reaping the benefits? No one. Shen Yuan/Suki decided to stand on the sidelines while munching popcorn, ready to watch the drama. Let Bai Tingfeng unleash his beastly nature and become the notorious f*ck boy in the city. Suki/Shen Yuan doesn't care about that. All his concern was to be separated from this difficult man! Will the husband and husband fall for each other? No one knows. Only the electronic billboard asking someone's WIFE for a coffee date would do the talk. #omegaverse #alphaxomega #MPREG #dungeons #magic #transmigration #powercouple #childraising #beast #nonhumanMC #supersmutBL #misunderstanding
