Li Daoxuan received a strange scenic box. Inside the box, there was an ancient village, and a group of plastic figures, holding swords and knives, hacking and slashing through the village. He bent his finger and flicked it towards a most conspicuous figure... Late in the Ming Dynasty, in Shaanxi, there was a great drought in the land. A gang of mountain bandits was looting, burning, killing, and plundering in the village. A poor maiden was about to be killed under a mountain bandit's blade. Suddenly, a giant hand stretched out from the clouds, bent a finger, flicked it, and the mountain bandit was flung several dozen yards away.

The Russian Empire will collapse. War will consume Europe. Ukraine will rise… only to fall into chaos. In 1900, Pavlo Skoropadskyi wakes up with knowledge of the future. He knows how it ends. A puppet Hetman. A broken country. A lost chance. This time, he refuses. Decades before the storm, he begins to prepare — building industry in the south, forging alliances among nobles, and shaping a power base strong enough to survive the coming collapse. But history does not change quietly. Empires will fall. Wars will come. And the more he tries to rewrite the future… the more dangerous it becomes.

Ralph transmigrated into the world of One Piece. Right at the start, he was rescued by Luffy — only to discover, in shock, that Luffy had become a cute short-haired girl! Luffy… a girl?!!! Luffy had turned into Lufia — how was this adventure supposed to unfold now? She’s the granddaughter of a Marine vice admiral, the daughter of a revolutionary, and since childhood has been led astray by a certain red-haired pirate, dreaming of becoming the Pirate King. She’s optimistic, passionate, and full of dreams. Along the journey, regardless of gender, people are inspired by her, gathering around her as friends. In the end, everyone realises she is the Sun Goddess, destined to save the world! This… actually sounds pretty reasonable! After a kiss that sealed their bond (well — CPR), Ralph’s system awakens. His main quest: become the man of the Pirate King! As long as he gains characters’ affection, he earns rewards — the Six Powers, Haki, navigation skills… Gaining Lufia’s favor makes him grow even stronger. Become the Pirate King’s man, the partner of the Sun Goddess, and the ultimate reward will be granted! Big reward or not, it doesn’t really matter — like the One Piece itself, it might all be intangible anyway. What really matters is that I love girls with short hair, easygoing personalities, and serious foodie tendencies! I’m definitely going to become the Pirate King’s man! Sanji — I’ll compete with you in cooking! Zoro — I’ll compete with you in swordsmanship! Usopp — I’ll compete with you in bragging! Franky — I’ll compete with you in being outrageous! As long as it boosts Lufia’s affection, I’ll do anything! Robin — please don’t fall for me, my heart belongs only to Lufia! Hancock — you’re the worst offender, don’t think being beautiful is enough to—

Himanshu was just an ordinary eighteen-year-old—an orphan scraping through life—until a heated argument about Karna and Arjuna became the last conversation he would ever have. Struck down by a god’s wrath for daring to question divine actions, his life ends abruptly… but not completely. Before his soul can fade into oblivion, he is summoned by Lord Shiva. Declaring that Himanshu’s death was unjust and premature, Shiva offers him a second chance—one bound not by mercy, but by purpose. A sacred duty awaits him in a world where Dharma is on the verge of collapse. Reborn in the era of the Mahabharata, Himanshu quickly realizes something is terribly wrong. The timeline exists. The kingdoms stand. The great war approaches. But the one who anchors destiny itself… Lord Krishna is missing. Without Krishna, the balance between Dharma and Adharma begins to shatter. Heroes waver. Villains rise unchecked. Fate itself grows unstable. Armed with three extraordinary boons—a mysterious system that rewards his actions, unnatural luck, and unmatched talent in all arts and combat—Himanshu steps into a story that was never meant to unfold this way. But in a world where destiny has lost its guide… Even the smallest change can birth unimaginable consequences. As he navigates alliances, alters events, and challenges the very will of the gods, Himanshu must confront a terrifying truth: Is he here to save this world… —or to decide if it deserves to be saved at all? ====================================== (Author note:) This story was a heavy A.U and all those characters belong's to the OG creator of the epic.

Imagine waking up as the villain in your sister's cheesy fantasy novel. Yeah, not ideal, especially when that villain is destined for hatred, and a grim end in some forgotten dungeon. That's Astrid's new reality. Her old life? Gone. Her new mission? Survive. And step one means throwing the original script out the window. But changing fate is way harder than it sounds. In a desperate move, Astrid makes the story's heroine, Lyra, her personal maid. Clever, right? Except teaching Lyra magic and treating her like, well, a person, backfires spectacularly. Lyra's gratitude twists into something intense, dark, and possessive. And she's not the only one. Astrid tries mending fences with her powerful aunt, only to find herself smothered by a love that feels dangerously close to madness. Even her ambitious half-sister, originally her rival, gets weirdly attached after Astrid shows her a bit of warmth and helps her gain power using some modern-world smarts. Astrid thought she was being clever, building alliances, creating intelligence networks, rewriting roles. She is changing the story, but it's warping everyone around her. Their loyalty? It's becoming obsession. Their affection? A dangerous fixation. Now, Astrid isn't just fighting the plot. She's drowning in a mess of her own making – caught between people who crave her, tangled in lies and affections twisted way out of shape. Everyone wants her, and sharing isn't remotely on their agenda.

**BLVCK WOLVES book 3, Arc IV "RIOT GANG" is now live** He is a Sin in a world of magic, and his crew is broken as f*ck. Greed is the acting captain of a bottom-tier Guild called the Black Wolf Knights—or rather, the Black Wolves, and he has no magic. In fact, he rejects it. Literally. With a peculiar name, a mysterious power, and a group of unbridled mavericks with insane abilities, Greed and the Black Wolves are constantly caught in the middle of something scheming in the shadows. Whether it be in their own Kingdom, or beyond it. All the Black Wolves ever want is to live a life of meaninglessness and debauchery. But as the world conflicts, corruptness rises, and war among the nations brew, they always seem to be the last line of defense… Ironically. On top of all this, he is haunted by a past he cannot remember. His only clue, is a girl in the sky… "Find me…" she says. And when he does, his—and everyone else’s—world spirals into chaos. Expect: - Black Clover inspired with JJK abilities, Final Fantasy world, and Vox Machina vibes - NOT isekai, transmigration, evolution, system, or cultivation. Go look for that elsewhere - OP MC from the start with no magic [NOT ANTI-MAGIC], progressively gets even more OP - Harem relationships in the beginning, moderate fanservice, mild sex scenes (hate me), and strong romance subplot by the end of Arc 1 with only one girl - Classic slow-paced story with character development, backstories, perspectives from multiple characters, stats and ability descriptions, intricate plot, worldbuilding, and of course tons of fighting - A long, ongoing story Written and conjured by J.N. Marlow. All rights reserved. © 2025 J.N. Marlow.

To cope with the fierce competition between the various Cosmoses, the top-tier gods of the prime Cosmos to which Blue Star belongs, inspired from an unknown source, organized a Lord Competition that spans the entire Cosmos. With the spirituality of intelligent lifeforms as the core, supplemented by the power of a world, they are cast into the chaos outside the Cosmos. The power of chaos is transformed into a sanctuary, and the intelligent lifeforms become the masters of these small worlds, known as Lords.

Then, through the competition, powerful Lords are selected. The eliminated Lords will have the connection to their territories severed and will be sent back to their original worlds.

An unknown amount of time has passed, and another competition is about to begin.
