The Vault : Rise Of The Void

​Arata and the Secret of Tellios ​Young Arata is the scion of a lineage entrusted with a mysterious pendant. A relic of immense power, it brought prosperity to his ancestral lands—yet such blessings always demand a price, a lingering consequence for every luxury enjoyed. ​Across the stars dwells Zili, a ruthless rebel leader consumed by an insatiable thirst for dominion. He is a cosmic parasite, draining the life force of every planet he subjugates. His arrival is synonymous with the apocalypse; mercy is a concept foreign to him, and he grants none to those who dare obstruct his path. ​Currently, Zili’s shadow looms over the planet Tellios. He is driven by a frenzied desire to seize the power locked within a legendary gemstone. Tellios was once guarded by three protectors, but their physical forms now lie captive in Zili’s clutches. Their spirits, however, remain sealed within a crystalline sanctuary known as the Vault. To keep this soul-stone from falling into Zili’s hands, it was spirited away to the distant cradle of Earth. ​Fate led Arata to discover this artifact within his ancestral grounds. Upon unlocking its seal, he achieved a rare synchronization with the power dormant inside. Now, he finds himself burdened by a heavy moral debt, forced to unravel the truth behind a conflict he never asked to join. ​Beneath the weight of destiny, Arata remains a youth navigating the turbulent waters of adolescence. His world is a tapestry of textbooks, grease-stained workshops, loyal friendships, and the delicate stirrings of romance. Orphaned and left to fend for himself, Arata did not succumb to despair; instead, he forged a fierce independence. He is surrounded by a makeshift family: Kato and his father have been his anchors since childhood, while Hana, Yumi, and Sora provide a warmth he deeply treasures. The motorcycle workshop where he works part-time has become a second home; the Kenzo family treats him as one of their own. ​Yet, a life that seems too idyllic often exacts a steep toll. Arata’s journey is shadowed by Donios and his trio of lethal mechanical drones. These executioners are more than ready to reenact the ancient slaughter of Arata’s ancestors in the modern day. ​Now, Arata and the three Guardians of Tellios are locked in a desperate race against time. The fate of Tellios is inextricably linked to that of Earth; if Tellios falls, Earth follows. The hope of two worlds now rests upon Arata’s shoulders—his choices and his courage will decide the future of these cosmically bonded realms.

A Borrowed Name (A Ron Weasley SI)

He died a 32 year old man on a Tuesday. He woke up as Ron Weasley. Not a child pretending to be Ron — a grown man, fully aware, with all the memories of a life already lived and the complete knowledge of a war that hasn't happened yet. He knows how it ends. He knows what it costs. And he has decided, quietly and with considerable patience, that it is going to cost significantly less this time.He's can't fully stop it — he's not Dumbledore — but he can make it hurt less. The plan: Destroy the Horcruxes, Keep Sirius alive. Harry gets a better life than the books gave him but most importantly make sure to bring everyone home in the end. What he didn't plan for: genuinely loving this family. A father who finds Muggle engineering genuinely miraculous. A mother who notices everything and says exactly as much as she means to. A sister who says true things directly and takes his cooking personally. Traveling with his siblings. Cooking lessons in the Hogwarts kitchens. Languages acquired overnight and a camera that catches the moments nobody else thinks to photograph. Friends who turn out to be more interesting than the story gave them credit for — Harry, who is braver and quieter and funnier than anyone gives him credit for. Hermione, who argues with him as an equal, which is her highest form of respect. Neville, who is right about things more often than he knows. Luna, who says the true thing in the voice of someone who has decided the truth doesn't need defending. Becoming someone worth being. And falling, slowly and completely, for a girl who has been watching him the whole time. Slice of life. Canon-aware. The war is coming. That's not the main story. Reincarnation SI. Slow burn romance. Found family. First fanfiction — AI assisted due to English being not my first language. Thank you for reading.

The invincible One

At twenty-eight, Ivan Smith had everything — a blistering career as one of England's most electrifying midfielders, a reputation built on instinct and fire, and the unconditional love of the club he'd supported since childhood. Then, in a single collision, it all ended. Torn ligaments. Surgery. A second surgery. And finally, the words no footballer ever wants to hear: you won't play at this level again. What came next hurt more than the injury itself. His boyhood club — the one he'd bled for, the one whose badge he'd kissed with genuine pride — turned on him. Labeled a flop. Quietly discarded. The fans who once sang his name moved on. The board that once promised loyalty stopped returning calls. Ivan was shown the door not with gratitude, but with indifference bordering on contempt. Bitter, directionless, and written off at twenty-eight, Ivan drifts — until a desperate call comes from Manchester Athletic Club, a threadbare outfit scraping along in the fourth division of English football. No budget. No staff. A crumbling ground tucked in the shadow of two giants who own this city. They don't need a manager so much as a miracle. Ivan takes the job because he has nowhere else to go. What follows is a brutal education. He must learn to lead men rather than outrun them — to see the whole pitch from the sideline instead of the center circle. He butts heads with veteran players who don't respect him, a chairman who'd sooner cut costs than dream bigger, and a fanbase too small and too scarred to believe in anything yet. And all of it plays out in Manchester — the city where football is a religion, but the congregation only worships at two cathedrals. But the deepest wound isn't tactical. It's personal. The people who discarded him are still out there — thriving, celebrated, unbothered. Former teammates who said nothing. Club officials who smiled to his face and buried him in private. Every time Ivan picks up a marker and draws a set piece on a whiteboard, every time he drags his squad through a freezing Tuesday night training session, he carries that betrayal like a stone in his chest. It fuels him. And it haunts him. Season by season, through shoestring transfers, long away trips to forgotten towns, and the slow alchemy of turning misfits into believers, Ivan forges something real at Manchester Athletic. The underdog story begins to catch fire. But the higher they climb, the closer they get to the world that spat him out — and the reckoning he's been building toward without quite admitting it. Some men play for trophies. Ivan Smith plays for proof. He was told he was finished. He intends to be Invincible

One Piece: The Navy’s Eight-Year-Old Tech Genius

After transmigrating, Xia Yu becomes an eight-year-old child and awakens a Technology System. Using the identity of his older brother—Admiral Kizaru—he joins the Navy’s Science Division. Right from the start, he creates the Seraphim. Then he upgrades them into Admiral-Level Seraphim… even Rocks-Level Seraphim! With his inventions, the balance of the sea collapses. The Navy overwhelms the Seven Warlords and suppresses the Four Emperors. Even more terrifying is the Cosmic Fruit Tree, an existence that surpasses the Devil Fruit Tree itself. The fruits growing on it contain abilities from countless worlds. Iron Man armor. Haki apples. Kinetic energy drinks. Nuclear-level Pacifistas. Countless pieces of black technology appear one after another. From that moment on… The entire One Piece world begins to go completely off track. Blackbeard: “Maybe you won’t believe this… but my entire pirate crew was wiped out by just two basic Seraphim!” Doflamingo: “A new era has arrived… but it’s an era that belongs to Xia Yu alone!” “If you want to defeat the Navy… you’ll have to rely on technology!” After pirates successfully replicate part of Xia Yu’s technology, a massive arms race of scientific research funding begins between the Navy and the pirates. Four Emperors: “To replicate Xia Yu’s technology and resist the Navy, we’ve spent all our savings!!!” Navy: “You think we’re any better off?” “Believe it or not—” “Even the Celestial Dragons are broke now!!!” Xia Yu: “You were the ones crying and begging me to develop all this technology in the first place.” “No money now?” “How is that my fault?”
