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.

In a land where power is inherited through bloodlines and ancient abilities, Aya, the Lady of House Svedana, rules the North. After her father's death, the responsibility of leading one of the oldest and most powerful families in the kingdom has fallen to her. She carries the weight of a legacy tied to the land itself. But Aya is burdened by a secret—making her lineage’s continuation impossible. When Killan, the Southern King, arrives in the North with his party seeking an alliance, his bold proposal threatens to unravel everything Aya has worked for. While the South and the North have long been founded, Killan sees an opportunity to strengthen his kingdom by uniting with the powerful Northern House. Despite the political implications of a marriage between them, Aya and Killan find themselves drawn to each other. As they navigate the dangerous terrain of politics, duty, and personal desires, they must also face the shadows of their pasts and the uncertain future of their kingdoms. "Echoes of Ice and Iron" is a tale of power, trust, and sacrifice—where love and honor are tested, and alliances come at a cost.

Logan spent his whole life grinding away for a corporation that didn't give a damn about him. When pancreatic cancer finally punched his ticket, he figured that was it—game over. Then he woke up as James Sargent. Twenty years old. Heir to a Mississippi cotton empire. Master of hundreds of slaves. The year? 1856. The catch? He knows the Civil War kicks off in exactly five years—and it'll burn the entire Southern way of life to ash. Now he's stuck with a choice no amount of future knowledge can make easy: stand with a losing cause and watch everything crumble, or speak against it and get strung up as a traitor before the first shots are even fired. With five years on the clock and a head full of knowledge nobody else has, can he do more than just survive? Can he build something that outlasts the chaos—or will history crush him like everyone else? -------- #American Civil War #1856 #Slave #Master #Republican #Democrat

After dying from cancer, Oliver Smith wakes up in the freezing Weather Hills of Middle-earth as Aldric, a minor Dúnedain noble with nothing but a rusted sword and a group of forty-six starving refugees. However, he isn't just a survivor—he is the host of the Kingdom Restoration System (KRS). In a land of fading magic and rising darkness, Aldric must use the system to rebuild the lost kingdom of Arnor from the ground up. From managing granaries and planting orchards to training a military capable of standing against the shadow, he must transform a band of desperate refugees into a continental power. The world thinks the age of Men is over, but with a system for civilization building, Aldric is about to prove them wrong. The System: Kingdom Restoration (KRS) Territory Management: Allows the MC to "claim" land. Once claimed, the system provides a map overlay showing resource nodes (ore, fertile soil) and structural integrity of ruins, making it easier to rebuild ancient bastions like Amon Hen-dîr. Population & Loyalty Tracking: A HUD that shows the exact number of followers, their health, and their loyalty levels. It calculates "Prosperity" and "Stability" scores, warning the MC of potential rebellions or starvation before they happen. Civilization Skill Trees: Points earned from quests can be invested into trees like Agriculture (increasing crop yields), Masonry (speeding up construction), or Military Reform (enhancing the combat stats of his soldiers). Quest & Reputation System: The system issues "Restoration Quests" that provide essential rewards for growth. It also tracks his reputation among other factions (Elves, Dwarves, Rohan), unlocking unique trade or diplomatic options as his fame grows.

"I am the rot in your foundation. I will crawl back from hell and bury this world." Those were Red’s final words as his classmates—the people he once sought validation from—watched him dissolve. They stole his life force to fuel their own ascensions, becoming Paladins, Sages, and Kings. They threw his empty husk into the Abyss, satisfied the 'Terrorist's Son' was finally gone. But death was not the end. While his body lay broken in the abyss, his soul drifted to the sanctuary of a Forgotten God. Awakening the forbidden SSS-Rank Talent [Exponential Divinity - 100x Growth], Red realizes that in this world, power isn't given—it's built. He doesn't need heroes; he needs monsters. From the chitin of hyper-evolved insects to dragons, from eldritch horrors to the nightmares sleeping in the dark, he begins to construct a civilization that defies the natural order. Under his hand, the weak do not just survive—they evolve into calamities. The Heroes are leveling up in their golden towers. The Gods are watching from their thrones. But in the shadows, Red’s Strongest Civilization is already preparing for war. [Betrayed and sacrificed, I awakened an SSS-Rank Talent. While others struggle to build a village, my civilization grows 100x faster.]

"In the world of Arcanos, purity is a lie, and power is the only truth." Cyan Valerian, the legitimate heir of the Valerian Duchy, was born with a "Saint’s Heart," only to be betrayed by those he swore to protect. His core was shattered by his own brother, and his fiancée, the Holy Saintess, watched in cold silence as he was cast into the Abyss of Silent Bones. But the Abyss didn't consume him; it changed him. [System: Absolute Corruption Initiated.] Now, Cyan returns not as a savior, but as the King of Sin. With a system that feeds on the shadows of the soul, he will corrupt the 'pure,' break the 'holy,' and rebuild the world in his image. How long can the Heavens stand when the Darkness is absolute?

Summoner Guild Online was supposed to be the launch of the century. For millions of players, it was the ultimate escape. A world of endless adventure, legendary loot, and guild wars that would make history. But for Kai Grimer, it became a death trap. He doesn't spawn in the starting village like the others. Instead, he wakes up in the suffocating darkness of the Tutorial Dungeon—not as a player, but as the final boss. An NPC designed to be slaughtered by wave after wave of newbies farming their first XP. The logout button doesn't work. The system won't respond. And if he dies here, there's no respawn. Desperate and hunted, Kai activates his only skill, [Grand Summon]. It's a gamble: sacrifice XP to pull a random servant from across dimensions. He's hoping for something useful. A knight. Maybe a mage. Even a halfway-decent slime would do. What he gets instead is Lyra, the Abyssal Empress. [Rating: 9999 Class: World-Ending Calamity Danger Level: Apocalypse-Tier.] She's devastatingly beautiful. Unimaginably powerful. And completely, utterly insane. She despises humanity, mocks the system, and has enough power to crack continents in half. But thanks to the summoning contract, she has one unbreakable rule: absolute obedience to Kai. And somehow, that obedience has twisted into something far more dangerous—obsession. But Kai isn't running anymore. With each wave of players he defeats, he earns XP. With each summon he pulls, his army grows. Knights. Demons. Spirits. Beasts. And perhaps... more dangerous beauties who don't appreciate Lyra's self-proclaimed monopoly on their Master's attention. [You have defeated 47 Players] [New Summon Available] Trapped between overpowered summons fighting for his favor, guilds hunting his legend, and a game system that's starting to break under his existence, Kai has one goal: He won't just survive Summoner Guild Online. He'll conquer it. And if a few world-ending beauties want to fight over him along the way? Well, that's just part of being the strongest summoner.

We are the most spine-chilling feudal lords in all of Westeros—the House of Bolton: a poisonous remnant of the First Men, where savage brutality and ancient nobility coexist. Torture is an art—and even more, a craft. We tear open false skins and lay bare the truth beneath. As an interrogator in the dungeons of the Dreadfort, I can smell a lie with my nose alone. Before me, no one can hide their secrets. —Domiric Bolton P.S. A Game of Thrones fanfic. Even if you haven’t read the novels or watched the TV series, you can read this without any obstacles.

Upon opening his eyes, Xu Ping becomes a spirit farmer in the cultivation world. By chance, he awakens the proficiency panel: From the Spirit Rain Skill that assists in the growth of spirit rice, to the earth-shattering Star Splitting Finger, everything is in his reach by constant practice. "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Xu's Spirit Rain Skill to break through silently, truly a sudden accomplishment!" Old Man Lu wore a fawning look on his face. "Luck, just luck," Xu Ping said modestly. "This isn't just luck. If breaking through the Spirit Rain Skill were based on luck, countless people would have done it. Fellow Daoist Xu relies on talent..."

Lin Wanwan slips a jade bracelet onto her wrist—and steps between two worlds. Side A: neon lights, 5G, instant ramen, MRI machines—an age of abundance where food is fast and friendships sometimes slow. Side B: Tang-dynasty sunshine, cracked earth, locust clouds, emperors who ask villagers to skip meals so soldiers can march. A “golden age” that growls with hunger. Lin has no grand plan—only a wish: let the little bean who waits for her at the gate eat his fill, let the gray-haired elders who calls her “treasure” sleep without fear of famine. Lin Wanwan wants to bring small changes to the world she loves, so the family she cherishes can live a little better, then a little better still—because "I has finally found the place that calls my home."

Everything functions in a cycle, be it an ant, bird, lion, human, or even a celestial body. This cycle initiates with one's birth and governs one's end, yet there exists the potential to surpass it. Among the billions of planets floating in the cosmos, destined to merely occupy a void, some have the capacity to ascend, reaching new dimensions, standing shoulder to shoulder with realms like Heaven and Hell. --- Vlad, a young man, found himself ill-fitted in a world that scarcely offered him any luck, weighed down by a mysterious secret that initially seemed more of a burden than a boon. Yet, the powers he had dismissed as trivial eventually became his most formidable strength when the apocalypse broke, unleashing literal pandemonium as angels and demons walk among the human race. ---- Discord link: https://discord.gg/am5hkAdmhp Weekly updates: 14 chapters 100 Power Stones: 2 extra chapters 200 Power Stones: 4 extra chapters 300 Power Stones: 6 extra chapters.
