Fifty years ago, the Abyss appeared in the world, and the world was never the same. From the Abyss emerged Magical Beasts with unimaginable strength and power that sought to prey on humans and destroy the human race. Yet, alongside the Abyss was a power to awaken a magical occupation that grants its bearers magical abilities, enabling them to fight back. Now, awakened humans with magical abilities are tasked with venturing deep into the Abyss to destroy it once and for all. But there is more to the Abyss than humanity knew. … … Thoren Starfall has been plagued by disease since his childhood. To save him from the Mana-Eating Worm, his parents took a high-interest loan when he was close to dying. When Thoren Starfall recovered from the disease, he awakened the weakest occupation: a Necromancer. As an Awakener, it is compulsory for him to venture into the Abyss, but with a useless occupation, his fate is already decided. Having lost their first daughter to the Abyss, the Starfall family fell into despair. Thoren, however, is different. While everyone calls his occupation useless, he believes otherwise. Hidden beneath his weak occupation lies an Ex-Rank talent, one that even he doesn’t fully understand. But first, he must venture into the Abyss and return in less than 14 days to protect his parents from becoming slaves.

When Feng Qi awoke, he realized the world had been completely overturned. Wherever his eyes fell, the land was strewn with desiccated bones. All life had withered away. [Warning: Three hundred meters ahead lies a database. It contains historical records, including a detailed account of your untimely death. You should go take a look.] [Trust me—don’t go west. You could die!] [Do you see that black stone monument? You decide to approach it and investigate.] “I don’t want to!” Feng Qi protested, resisting the voice echoing in his mind. [No. You do.] … Guided by that mysterious voice, Feng Qi begins to traverse between reality and the future, gradually uncovering the truth of this ruined world—and searching for a way to change it. For it is only after witnessing true darkness that one comes to long endlessly for the light.

Growing up in poverty, Sunny never expected anything good from life. However, even he did not anticipate being chosen by the Nightmare Spell and becoming one of the Awakened - an elite group of people gifted with supernatural powers. Transported into a ruined magical world, he found himself facing against terrible monsters - and other Awakened - in a deadly battle of survival. What's worse, the divine power he received happened to possess a small, but potentially fatal side effect...

Fate sets everything into motion. Dream drives that motion into action. And action causes death. This endless cycle is inevitable. Despair. Madness. Delusion. Sins. Ideals. What awaits someone broken again and again by this cycle? Beyond the unending path, does happiness exist? But to what end? The story of why he chose to walk this never-ending path.

In a world where the sun has long since perished beneath an eternal cobalt night, every human is born with Lunar Ichor, a living essence etched with a unique Lunar Sigil, a sacred symbol engraved into the soul itself. Yet Lunar Ichor alone grants no true divinity. Only when it resonates with Divine Ichor through the sacred rite of Baptism does the sigil awaken, forging an Astral Card, the vessel of one’s ascension and power. But the heavens are broken. The Moons, fragments of Divine Ichor left behind by gods waging endless war, hang shattered above the world, bleeding their power into mankind while spreading corruption through the night. From these celestial wounds came the Howlings, monstrous echoes of divine ruin, and the prophecy of another Cataclysm, a calamity said to descend when the Moon Goddess Noxella awakens once more. Amid this dying world lives Clyde Nox Pvolae, a boy who never sought power, never desired ascension, and never wished to stand among gods. Yet when he discovers a forbidden book buried beneath ancient truths, his Lunar Ichor mutates into Hollow Star, an impossible anomaly that defies the sacred laws binding humanity to the heavens. As the coming Cataclysm draws near and the descent of Noxella threatens to plunge the world into ruin, Clyde becomes entangled in a fate older than the gods themselves. If the heavens once fell because of mankind’s arrogance, then what will happen when one human gains the power to defy the gods? Will history repeat itself?

Synopsis: He was never meant to be the one chosen for reincarnation. Yet, through some inexplicable twist of fate and a book, he became 90% eligible. Before his reincarnation and even before he could even question it, he was abducted by a mysterious entity and thrown into a new world filled with magic, swords, dragons, gods, and demons. And as compensation for this… questionable kidnapping, he was granted few powerful techniques and a System. However, there was only one problem. In a world built on magic and aura, the System and Techniques he received belonged to an entirely different genre. *** Join Discord for more discussion: https://discord.gg/wr7Qh2yd89 Progression fantasy story with great focus to the worldbuilding at the start and the Cultivation elements appears less at the start of the story before gradually improving.

Alfonzo Marcus and Elicia Taylor, a pair of lovers who were preparing to marry in the near future, tragically lost their lives in a car accident. However, this was not the end of the road for either of them. When they next opened their eyes, they found themselves in a small orphanage in the port town of Hargeon. After connecting with the memories of their previous lives, they realized that they were in the world of one of their favorite anime, Fairy Tail. Now, how will Alfonzo and Elicia change not only their own fates, but also the fates of those around them? ============================================================================== At present, this novel is not my main focus. My other book, High School DxD: Scattered Cherry Blossoms is what I will be focusing on until it is finished. Updates for this story will mainly happen on Saturdays and Sundays, unless inspiration hits me out of nowhere. Also, my drawing talent is abysmal. So, if anyone draws any of the characters, I'd love to see them.

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ 1 bonus chap per 500PS. 1 bonus chap per 100GT. 3/5 bonus chap for reaching rank 100/80 in GT ranking respectively. Discord Server Link: 6JA46z23bw

Genevieve was just a normal, cool girl at school, enjoying her moments, teasing others, getting into trouble with her friends, and the carefree life of youth. Until an evening news report suddenly appeared on everyone's screen about scientists who had invented a core to transform humanity into metahumans, to upgrade civilization, which would change everything. Injected with the core, Genevieve gains powers beyond comprehension, but loses control, becoming a threat not just to the scientists who experimented on her, but to the entire world. A story of power, trauma, and identity, Gaia of Destruction is an epic tale of Genevieve fighting to reclaim herself while the world crumbles around her.

The Story : Honestly, I should have expected it. After all, my line of work would always be screwing with me when I don't need to. What I did not expect was getting myself into a world where Gods are alive and around, Angels and Demons are real, and the residents are really weird. I blame Zelretch for this.

Good news: I transmigrated into Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (even though I haven't finished watching it yet). Bad news: I am a Demon, a race that everyone wants dead. Good news: I am a Great Demon, not that unlucky fool Aura. Bad news: Aura is currently casting her Obedience Magic on me. ____ (P) Walnutchan

A decade ago, a war unlike any other raged across the Earth, causing death, desolation, and chaos, and reshuffling the world's balance of power. Following that war, the Union rose to become the sole major power. And though many things got better, many people to this day still suffer from its lingering effects. Among them is Gil. Orphaned by the war, he is, like many others, struggling to get by. His life is common enough—aside from a stubborn will and... some peculiarities to his name. Then, as he finishes another day of hard work, a series of unexpected events throws him, against his will, into a frightening world full of bloodshed, but equally full of wonders. A world where anything is possible... if you find the way. Author's Corner Hi everyone! It's Berserker Gil, the author.

Please enjoy the story! Berserker out.

Veteran duelist Miles transmigrated and woke up in the Spirit Continent, a world where dueling reigns supreme above all else. Staring at an environment where Axe Raiders hack each other to pieces, Miles originally thought it would be easy to become the Duel King of this world. But the reality? "Since you lost your physical body before transmigrating, you can only exist in spirit form, possessing someone else." "Women only slow down my card plays!" Miles grumbled. "But why... why have I ended up as the dueling spirit behind a bunch of girls?!" Aisha said, "I Normal Summon Mokey Mokey in Attack Position." "Are you stupid? Why would you summon a 300 Attack vanilla in Attack Position?!" ... Disclaimer: All rights to the original content belong to their respective creators. Title: 打牌吧！ 在剑与魔法的异世界 Author: 摸鱼阿唯 ...
