“Whenever I dream, you are all there. Sometimes I see you in madness, sometimes in gentleness. But when I wake up, I realize that everything was false…” Dreams are beautiful. Dreams are also painful—because in the end, they are nothing more than fantasies. …If that’s the case, then why not bring them all back? A long-awaited reunion. Turning the impossible into the possible—just thinking about it feels miraculous. …I will bring back your family. Bring back everything that belongs to you. Bring back your dreams. And then… please forget me. …If possible, while I am still here—please cherish me. Raw: 原神：穿越为五夜叉之一 Author: 东方饺子 著

"Although I was reborn as the weakest of the five-colored dragons, and transmigrated into a little female dragon, and had a disastrous start, at least I am a top-tier race. It's better than being reborn as a maggot, right?" Jona Velli looked at the pure white dragon scales covered by blood and dust, and was forced to accept the fact that she had inexplicably transmigrated to this magical continent and become a little female dragon because of drinking. "Now that I've come to this strange world, how can I not make a big splash? Hehehehe..." ………… Seeing the awakened power of time, Jona Velli was so excited that she almost jumped up and started spinning like a Thomas the Tank Engine. Time acceleration? No, no, no, that's not a good description at all. It should be renamed "Weekend". Time has forgotten? No, no, it should be renamed [Breaking Promises], hehehe~

And wide."

When Chase awakens, his daily life starts taking a new turn. He starts exacting revenge on everyone who has hurt him in the past but his new found powers aren't exactly ideal

When Mulenga moves his family to a remote farm offered by his wife’s cousin, Mr. Banda, it feels like the miracle he has been praying for. After years of poverty and wandering between temporary jobs, the 11 hectares of fertile land promise stability, dignity, and a future for his growing family. Together with his wife, Thandiwe, Mulenga works tirelessly, transforming the farm into a thriving home filled with cattle, crops, and the laughter of children. For years, life seems blessed. But beneath the surface, a quiet storm is forming. As Mulenga watches others build wealth and ownership, a painful realization begins to grow inside him: the land he has poured his life into will never truly belong to him. Encouraged by whispers from friends and haunted by his own pride, Mulenga begins to resent the very opportunity that once saved his family. Driven by ambition and wounded pride, he makes a decision that will change everything. Without warning, he abandons the life he built and leaves the farm with his family, chasing the dream of owning land of his own. But the future he hoped for quickly turns into hardship. His eldest daughter’s life is derailed by an early pregnancy, his son Kebwe is sent away to be raised by the Bandas in hopes of securing a better future, and the family slowly begins to fracture under the weight of regret and lost opportunities. Years pass, and the consequences of that single decision echo across generations. Dreams fade, relationships break, and the land they left behind becomes a symbol of everything that was lost—love, stability, and the chance for a different life. Spanning four decades, The Land We Left Behind is a powerful and emotional story about pride, forgiveness, family, and the quiet ways our choices shape the lives of those who come after us. In the end, Mulenga must face the truth that the greatest loss was never the land he left behind—but the love he failed to protect. A deeply human story of regret, redemption, and the enduring memory of home.

In a divided city where power isn’t voted for but spoken into existence, a secret hierarchy rules from the shadows. At the top sits the Don — a figure as untouchable as a prime minister, chosen not by the people, but by a rare, overwhelming ability tied to a phrase so powerful it shapes reality itself. In this world, some people are born with abilities derived from famous phrases — short lines that carry immense symbolic meaning. A boy who inherits “Actions speak louder than words” can mute opponents’ powers unless they physically act. Another with “Time waits for no one” can accelerate or slow moments around him. These phrases define status, wealth, and survival. Two boys from the lowest district — reckless, ambitious, and tired of living powerless — discover they each carry dormant phrases thought to be myths. As their abilities awaken, they realize they might be capable of something unheard of: challenging the Don. But rising through the ranks isn’t just about strength. The world is controlled by syndicates, enforcers, and “Orators” — elite fighters trained to weaponize their phrases with precision. Every victory exposes deeper secrets: the origin of phrases, the truth behind the Don’s rule, and the cost of power itself. As the boys climb higher, their bond is tested by betrayal, ambition, and the growing realization that overthrowing the Don might not fix the world — it might break it completely. In the end, they must decide: Do they want to change the system… or become the very thing they set out to destroy?

[Female Protagonist + No System + Evil Demon + Muzan's Faction + Pillar Slayer] Many years later, when Tsugikuni Mitsuba faces the final battle against the Demon Slayer Corps at Infinity Castle, she will recall that morning when she brought Yoriichi to watch Michikatsu practice swordsmanship. Perhaps it was from that day that the fate of the three Tsugikuni siblings was sealed... My name is Tsugikuni Mitsuba, younger sister of the Child of God, Upper Rank One of the Twelve Kizuki, best secretary of Demon King Muzan, thief of divine authority, manipulator of fate, the only usurper in this world, and the nightmare of the Demon Slayer Corps for hundreds of years. And also, the ender of the Ubuyashiki Clan's thousand-year obsession. "People die every moment in this world. Who kills them, who is killed—what difference does it make?" "Magnificent resolve! Then let me see clearly whether you can break free from this prison called fate!" "Alright, let's wrap this up quickly. I still have to rush back for a meeting later..." PS: The female protagonist is a pure demon from Muzan's faction, not a spy demon with a body in the demon camp but a heart in the Demon Slayer Corps. ____________________ If you want to read more chapters, you can support me on Patreon.

He was in his early twenties when the world decided to end for him. A computing prodigy, educated at MIT, someone who understood systems, patterns, and limits better than most. In his previous life, power didn’t come from fists, but from the mind — lines of code capable of shaping digital realities. Then he died. And was born again. Reincarnated into the DC Universe as a helpless baby, he grew up in a world where gods walk among humans, where vigilantes defy the impossible, and where power is rarely fair — or free. While others trusted destiny, chance, or inherited gifts, he trusted only one thing: process. Memory intact. Intellect intact. Ambition intact. From an early age, he understood a simple and cruel truth: in that world, those who do not grow are crushed. And so, far from the spotlight of the League, he began to build something forbidden — his own Artificial Intelligence, created not to save the world, but to optimize it. To make him stronger. More efficient. More prepared to survive among monsters, aliens, and symbols. While heroes were born from tragedy, he forged himself in silence. While villains sought external power, he engineered it from within. This is not the story of a chosen one. It is the story of someone who decided to become inevitable. Between code and chaos, science and superhumans, begins the rise of a man who does not believe in miracles — only in evolution. This story was inspired by a fanfiction I read years ago — a work I deeply admire and still reread to this day. Unfortunately, that story was never continued.

One Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation The so-called "Twin Electro Archons" are nothing more than a tired tale spun by a dying Shogun. The so-called "Free-Spirited Bard" is merely the wind taking the form of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place. The so-called "Immortal Zombie Qiqi" is simply an old man's desperate plea on the verge of death—one that a god happened to hear. Li Mo had been reincarnated a hundred times into the world of Genshin Impact. One more lifetime—one final mission—and he would be granted ten wishes. In his hundredth life, he became a storyteller in Liyue. "On that day, the Thunder Demon split his own heart in two, saving his dying sisters." "On that day, the wind took the shape of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place." "On that day, an old man, facing the dying herb-gathering girl, forcibly wielded the power of his own wish, granting Qiqi a glimmer of hope." The emotion ran deep, and the entire audience erupted in applause. The Raiden Shogun, Shenhe, Qiqi… even the Tsaritsa herself was moved to tears. Hu Tao's eyes glistened as she asked, "Storyteller… is that boy really dead?" --- Raw: 原神：璃月港说书，胡桃泪目 Author: 万字更新
