In an age of blood, steel, and freezing spray, a Viking’s worth is measured by the swing of his axe. They are raiders. They are conquerors. They are the terror of the North. Ragnar, the eighteen-year-old bastard son of a starving chieftain, is none of these things. Just a month ago, he was a Senior Naval Architect in Seattle, designing high-efficiency cargo vessels. Now, he stands on a frozen fjord in 865 AD, facing a suicide mission to England that threatens to wipe out his village. Mocked for his refusal to raid and his obsession with "wizard words" like logistics and drag coefficients, Ragnar is dismissed as a coward. But they are all wrong. Where they see a longship, he sees a displacement curve waiting to be optimized. Where they see a storm, he sees wind energy waiting to be harnessed. They say his methods are madness. Soon, they will realize that while they are playing at war, he is engineering an empire. -------- Disclaimer: *Kingdom Building & Tech-Uplift: MC uses modern engineering to revolutionize the Viking Age. *Weak-to-Strong: Starts as a despised bastard, progresses to a wealthy tycoon/warlord. *High Detail: Detailed descriptions of ship-building and primitive industrialization.

Alternative Tittle: The Second Male Lead’s POV (in an Otome World) Starting a forbidden relationship with the duke’s daughter was the most reckless thing Lucian had ever done in his life. Up until now, his only risks were hunting rare saplings from dangerous places. Now, he was breaking the nobles’ rules. And it backfired, horribly. Not once, not twice, not thrice but multiple times. He almost died once, lost a few friends, fled his homeland, and then almost died again, but here he was, not really learning. "So dumb," the devil voice in his head whispered in disdain, "How more idiotic can you get?" "As far as idiocy goes deep," Lucian answered, accepting the new path of his life, "And it goes deep. And wide." Goal: get wealthy and powerful enough to afford more idiocy Current arsenal: blood, sweat, tears, and pure wits Start point: gardener End point: unknown TAGS: #twistedMC #manipulativeMC #YANDERExYANDERE #NO-NTR #loyalMC #loyalFL #insaneFL #evilFL #forbidden-love #you-can't-f‎ix-her-FL #lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers #nobility #fantasy #pirates #secret-organization #territorymanagement #obsessive-love-interest #comedy #conspiracy #businessman #moneymaking #mystery #Adult #Mature

"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

Fusion is a science-fantasy saga set on a living world shaped by three suns—Solara, Virel, and Nexon—whose energies govern will, identity, and transformation. At its center is Allium Bell, a being created to maintain balance between these forces. Designed as a function rather than a person, Allium begins the story detached, precise, and unsure what it means to choose. As disturbances spread across settlements—emotional flattening, identity erosion, and subtle behavioral harmony—Allium and a small group of allies investigate what initially appears to be environmental instability. What they uncover is not a single enemy, but a growing manipulation of identity itself. As ancient entities exploit the world’s systems and the power of the tri-suns, the cost of balance becomes increasingly personal. Rose, a seraphim seeking warmth and self-definition; Cassidy Firewell, a human forger shaped by loss and humor; Weaver, a creator haunted by the limits of design; and others are drawn into conflicts where force alone cannot solve what is breaking. Fusion is a slow-burn narrative that prioritizes atmosphere, character psychology, and consequence over spectacle. Threats emerge gradually—through silence, behavior, and implication—before violence ever arrives. Power is never free, growth is never clean, and victories carry lasting cost. The series explores themes of identity vs. function, choice vs. design, and the danger of systems that value balance without humanity, building toward escalating conflicts that reshape both the world and those sworn to protect it.

In the distant future, after thousands of years of human exploration, the time has come for them to step into the furthest point they have ever reached. Follow Ilya Greymor as he carves out his destiny in this new frontier.

The Great Gate shall never be opened." ​In the forbidden city of Syzespol, this is not just a law—it is a survival oath. For centuries, King Kabil has ruled with a cruelty that matches the cold black stones of his fortress, convinced that the world outside is a rotting curse. ​But the prophecy is bleeding into reality. ​On a morning when the sun refused to rise, the sky turned into a sea of boiling blood. A thunderous roar shattered the silence, and a man named Brant fell from the heavens, leaving a crater of fire at the very feet of the Great Gate. ​Now, Brant lies in the deepest, darkest dungeon, bound in iron and marked for death. But as the ground begins to crack and a terrifying power hammers at the Gate from the outside, King Kabil will realize too late: Brant didn't just fall... he was the first warning. ​The descent has begun. And some gates, once closed, were never meant to hold back the end of the world.

What would you do if you were granted the power to turn back time every time you died? Louis Drakeheart once had everything. Born as the grandson of the Dragon King and the son of Earth’s most brilliant scientist and strongest Esper and a Holy Dragon Goddess, his future seemed boundless. Yet at the age of ten, he failed to awaken his Dragon Bloodline and could not transform into a dragon. Branded a cripple and a failure by his own Dragon Family, he was abandoned, his dreams shattered. Growing increasingly bitter and resentful, especially after his mother fell gravely ill and slipped into an eternal slumber that no one could cure, Louis transformed into a ruthless, cynical, and deeply unstable noble. Throughout the Frostbane Kingdom, he became infamous as the “Mad Prince.” In a final, desperate bid for power, he plunged into the Dimensional Labyrinth, only to be ambushed by an enemy nation. Powerless to change his fate, he was killed. But that was not the end for Louis Drakeheart. Upon death, he awakened the power of Death Loop, allowing him to return to the past after dying. At last, he possessed the ability to reshape his life, one death at a time. Now, through sheer will and unrelenting struggle, Louis will fight with everything he has to seize the strength needed to change his fate, reclaim his draconic birthright, and save his kingdom from its inevitable downfall at the hands of both Enemy Nations and Horrors beyond the Dimensional Boundary—even if it costs him his sanity as he descends deeper into the Spiral of Madness.

He was originally supposed to be secretly killed by Cersei, but Robert, to humiliate the Lannister family, restored Mufasa's surname and even adopted him to Tyrion Lannister, the "Little Imp." "Later generations will call me the Lionheart, but I prefer them to call me the Golden Lion King. I am Mufasa Lannister, the first Master of the Lionheart Order, and the first Emperor of Westeros," Mufasa writes in his autobiography.
