Take Me Away, Dark Lord!

#VillainDad #CuteProtagonist #Ghosts #Misunderstanding #Transmigration #SmartMC Mira realized two things the moment she woke up in the body of a nameless orphan in a fantasy novel: 1. She is a disposable "shrimp" destined to die in the crossfire of the main characters. 2. She is the only person in this world who can see the screaming, terrifying ghosts that haunt every corner of the empire. Tortured by the wails of the dead, Mira finds only one source of silence: Duke Kaelus von Nacht. Known as the "Dark Lord" and the "Emperor's Sword," Kaelus is a man so ruthless and soaked in bloodlust that even the ghosts are terrified to go near him. To the world, he is a monster. But to Mira, he is a walking, talking pair of noise-canceling headphones. Desperate for a good night's sleep, Mira clings to him, acting like a naive, affectionate child to secure her place by his side. She succeeds, but she miscalculated. Kaelus didn't adopt her out of kindness. He needed a disposable child to act as 'live bait' for the assassins targeting him. Now named Seraphina, she must navigate a deadly game of survival. She thinks she is using him as a ghost shield. He thinks she is a fearless prodigy who loves him. As Seraphina munches on poison berries and naps through ambushes to avoid seeing spirits, the cold-blooded Duke starts to ask the wrong questions. "Why does she only sleep when I am holding her?" "Why does she stare into space with such disdain?" "Is it possible... that I am a good father?" Spoiler: He is not. But he’s about to destroy an entire kingdom because someone woke her up. --- ### Excerpt "Your Highness, the Archduke," the aide whispered, trembling hard to cover his laughter from bursting out. "The child... she is clinging to your leg again." Kaelus looked down. The tiny creature known as Seraphina was attached to his calf like a barnacle, drooling on his pristine military trousers. "She is fearless," Kaelus murmured, misinterpreting her desperate need for his ghost-repelling aura as familial affection. "The assassins are approaching, yet she seeks comfort only in the eye of the storm. She is the perfect bait." Seraphina, currently trying to avoid eye contact with a headless ghost hovering three feet away, squeezed her eyes shut. 'Just don't move. If I let go, the headless guy will ask me where his nose is again.' "Sir," the aide hesitated. "She's... eating your cloak." "Let her eat," Kaelus commanded, drawing his sword. "Whatever she wants, she gets. Except for freedom."

Five Chambers of Red Dancer [BL]

Disclaimer: The backstories of the characters are full of trauma, depression, gore, violence etc. Characters are morally complex. *** VOL-1 When the Moon is declared unreachable, most people lower their gaze. Except Crown Prince Isaiah. His obsession with the mysterious Red Moon began on a night when the infamous figure saved the very people who attempted to assassinate him but instead of seeking revenge or capturing the traitors, Isaiah found himself chasing that one person. But Isaiah didn't know the truth at that time. The Red Moon he pursued was a legend named Crimson Moon Waterfall — A Courtesan known for his unmatched beauty, his forbidden dance, and his unrivalled strength. And thus, The butterfly has decided to chase the impossible. But the impossible has chosen to run. VOL-2 When their relationship took a good turn, the world's future took a bad turn. Will their newly formed relationship last in the dark Era of Apollyon? VOL-3 The peace was restored in the world, but not in their relationship... Secrets, lies, and old conflicts began to rise. The legend Isaiah chased was never as simple as he believed. His beloved moon was connected to the same existence that once killed him.

The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Author's message to webnovel readers: Hello everyone, I’m Morning Star LL! Meet again, huh! Along with "This Game is Too Real" another novel titled "The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!" has been released. Still one "player + isekai" combination. This time, however, the isekai is a completely fantastical world detached from reality, the legendary realm of swords and magic. The primary motivation behind writing this book was to address the regrets left from "This Game is Too Real" Although I endeavored to incorporate as much of my intended message and the creative ideas that emerged during the writing process, I had to give up many ideas due to length constraints. Thus, I thought why not start from scratch and write about a game set against the backdrop of a fantasy world, shifting the focus more on the original inhabitants of the isekai rather than the players from Earth, to see if it could generate more interesting interactions. Like "This Game is Too Real", "The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!" primarily features a light-hearted and humorous style. Without the burden of a serious overarching background, the overall tone is somewhat more cheerful than "This Game is Too Real". I'll leave the rest of the content for you all to discover within the book! I hope that you will enjoy my work! Thank you! by Morning Star LL —————————————— Succubus Reporter: "Respected Lord Demon King, I remember the Demon God ordered you to spread panic among our enemies, but how come I've heard that you bought an entire street in the enemy's city center?" Luo Yan: "Foolish! Don't you understand tactical relocation? If I buy up the humans' city, won't the humans have to move into my underground city to live?" Succubus Reporter: "However, I heard that when the humans learned even the Demon King was buying property in the Holy City, not only did it fail to cause panic, but it also doubled the property prices in the Holy City." Luo Yan said smugly. "This precisely proves that my plan is correct!" Meanwhile, in the underground city, the skeletal miners (players) were making a fuss. "Get the game designer out here!" "What happened to promised divine pets, divine equipment, nurturing, achievements, the marketplace, junior female fellow practitioners, senior female fellow practitioners... the system, huh?" "Is this game really just about mining?!"

Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God

Here is Felen. In this world, myriad intelligent races nurture the tree of life, with humans merely on the ascent. Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Demi-Humans, Sea Elves, Merfolk—all inhabit their secluded island cities, while the wilderness teems with settlements of Goblins, Hobgoblins, Orcs, Jackalweres, Gnolls, and diverse Monster Tribes. Each intelligent race meticulously tends to their affairs for survival and the perpetuation of their kind. From the Fairy Wilderness to the Shadow Plane, the Ether Plane, and the Starry Realm—countless planes entwine with the Material Plane, blending seamlessly. In their God Kingdoms, the Gods scheme and vie for worship, manipulating all beings as pawns in their cosmic game. Within the depths of the Hell Abyss, devils and demons whisper, lusting after mortal souls. An ancient evil lies dormant, awaiting the world's descent into another cycle of chaos. The echoes of the Giant Empire still resonate across this ancient land. The colossal shadows of Giant Dragons still darken the skies of this realm. Gaven, the Legendary Warrior reborn, assumes the mantle of Fate Reshaper, threading through the fissures of destiny. With his prophetic foresight, he charts a careful and strategic path, shaping a future of his own making and averting impending tragedy. Gaven embarks on an unorthodox journey of magic farming—Gnolls mine for him, Fairies tend his fields, and Giants lead his charges. For indeed, Magic Farming is the true road to supremacy. ... In this Lord's tale of Magic Farming, the narrative may unfold slowly, so please extend a measure of patience and support. Preparation is extensive, with a swift writing pace, ample drafts in reserve, and an unwavering commitment to integrity.
