TOP SECRET:THE THING BETWEEN US.

Julian Ardent has spent his entire life living under a microscope. Born into a powerful and well-known family, every step he takes must be perfect. His grades, his reputation, his leadership as the university’s student union president—everything must reflect the high standards his family expects. Especially his father, a strict and openly homophobic man who believes the Ardent name must never be stained by scandal. For Julian, the path has always been clear: succeed, protect the family reputation, and never question the life chosen for him. Then Kai appears. A scholarship student who seems to drift through life like a free bird, Kai is everything Julian is not—carefree, bold, and quietly seductive. Yet beneath his relaxed attitude lies a sharp mind that earned him his place at the university. Unlike everyone else, Kai doesn’t treat Julian like an untouchable figure or the perfect son of a powerful family. He treats him like a person. What begins as simple curiosity slowly grows into something far more dangerous. The more time Julian spends with Kai, the harder it becomes to ignore the feelings he has spent years trying to bury. Feelings that could destroy the image he has built his whole life. Because in Julian’s world, love like this is forbidden. With family expectations tightening around him and a father who would never accept the truth, Julian must decide whether to protect the perfect life created for him… or risk everything for the one person who makes him feel truly alive. But some feelings can’t stay hidden forever. And the thing between them was supposed to remain top secret.

The Dancer of Blades

If you have talent, you will be called a genius or even a prodigy... But how about hard work? He was never talented. No gift, no destiny, no sect that wanted him. Only a sword, a stubborn will, and years of bleeding in silence while others soared past him with ease. They mocked him. They looked down on him. They called him talentless trash not worth the ground he stood on. He destroyed a sect anyway. In his final moments, surrounded by enemies, stabbed from the front and the back, betrayed by someone he trusted — He did not beg. He did not surrender. He laughed, raised his blade one last time, and carved his name into history with a single slash that split both a man and a mountain in half. They would remember him as the Mad Demon Blade. But history is written by the living, and the righteous never forgave what he had done. Now reborn in a small forgotten village with nothing but the memories of a life spent being stepped on, He opens his eyes to a second chance. Not for revenge. Not for glory. Not to prove anything to the world. But because he simply refuses to kneel again. In a world where talent determines your worth, your future, and even your right to be respected — one stubborn, bloodied, ordinary man will walk a path paved by nothing but sheer will and the endless repetition of a single swing. Because the blade does not care about your bloodline. It does not care about your destiny. It only cares about one thing. How many times you swung it.

Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. He makes decisions that those interested in hero complex protagonists may not find pleasant. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?

Honkai: Star Rail: The Genius Envoy Who Brings Knowledge to All Worlds

Traversing the Astral Express across the star rail, amid worlds teeming with madness, years ago—driven by his longing for the cosmos—I boarded the train to witness the boundless wonders of the universe. Those were the years Hermes still remembers most fondly. He once believed he would continue advancing further along the Path of Trailblaze. Yet just as he was on the verge of becoming a true Envoy of the Path, the unexpected fall of an Archivist caught him completely off guard. His pioneering journey came to an abrupt and silent end. Soon after, disaster struck his homeworld. Forced to return, he devoted himself to researching a planetary restoration technology suited specifically to his homeland, and in doing so, he truly set foot upon the Path of Erudition. Later, during his travels among the stars, Hermes encountered a civilized planet that had been swallowed by the Nihility. The sight left a profound impression on him, inspiring him to study the phenomenon in depth. In time, through relentless and self-driven research, he uncovered a fragment of truth regarding Imaginary principles and quantum mechanics. This breakthrough granted Hermes a unique and elevated authority aligned with the Path of Erudition. At that very moment, a voice both familiar and unfamiliar echoed within his mind— [Ding! The wisdom of Trailblaze has joined the chat group.] And thus, the Envoys of Wisdom began their journey across the countless worlds.

That world was also at the verge of extinction by the DESTROYER. But Elena was able to save the world after going through a lot of unimaginable hardship for seven years and became the World Savior. After fulfilling her mission now she have a chance to either stay in this world as hero, or go to another world to start a new comfortable life as a reward. So, what will she do? How will her journey go from now on? Join Elena who is a kind hearted, overpowered and ruthless girl in her journey to enjoy her life to the fullest after overcoming a lot of harsh trials. ______________ Elena is overpowered FMC and she is not involved in any kind of romance. I hate the idea of my protagonist to be a lovestruck maiden like many novels. She is strong, independent, kind and decisive. This story mainly focuses on the adventure and fantasy aspects more with slice of life and actions mixed in it. This novel is my take on creating a perfect Female Main Charector of my liking and to create a story of a proper hero and savior. ______________ The cover does belong to me, so no prob. discord: https://discord.com/invite/fYqDSEYVUM kofi: ko-fi.com/omniscient_ Have fun reading.
