She grew up ashamed of him. To her, he was everything a father shouldn't be: incompetent, greedy, selfish, and utterly embarrassing. Living at the very bottom of society, he couldn’t provide her the comfort or dignity she longed for. Her childhood was colored by disappointment, resentment, and a deep desire to escape the shadow of a man she believed had failed her in every way. She avoided him. She hated the way he scrimped and saved. She hated the way he dressed, the way he spoke, the way he simply existed. But then, everything changed. One day, she stumbled upon a truth too heavy to bear: her father had been silently battling cancer for sixteen years. He endured endless pain, not for himself, but to stay alive for her. To make sure she was fed. Clothed. Safe. By the time she understood the weight of his sacrifice, it was too late. He was gone. And for the first time in her life, she wept not from shame or frustration, but from grief, regret, and a love she had never realized was there all along. A heartbreaking tale of misunderstanding, sacrifice, and redemption, My Daughter Says: Having a Father Like Me is Really Embarrassing will leave you in tears, reminding us all that love sometimes hides behind the quietest of struggles. ---------- Source Material: 女儿说：有我这种父亲，真丢人

The best thing about crossing over is landing in the game world you were playing, inheriting your max-level account. Ross was just like that "Did you know, the entire world is actually a game, and I am the strongest Evil God in this game, easily able to duel the twelve main gods." "That's amazing, so why were you sealed?" "Because I transmigrated during the fight! I didn't have a keyboard in my hands! But it's okay, help me lift the seal, and you can become the main god." "Mm-hmm, alright." Miss Saintess responds while writing in her diary

For the ten-million-dollar prize, Darian is grinding through a massive virtual game called “Marvel World.” What he doesn’t realize is that from the moment the game began, he was already transported into the real Marvel Universe; becoming its only player. From cutting deals with Tony Stark to outsmarting Hydra agents and walking straight into S.H.I.E.L.D.’s crosshairs, Darian treats every encounter like a quest to be cleared and every hero like an NPC with loot to drop. To everyone else, he’s an unpredictable anomaly, but to himself, just a gamer following the mechanics. Nick Fury: Darian is an excellent agent, but he's a bit of a snob. Every time a mission is issued, he skips over it. Tony Stark: I can't believe it! The other day, Darian and I teamed up, and I came back with only my underwear left. Banner: I'm the exact opposite. My only underwear was stolen, and in a rage, I transformed into the Hulk, making headlines that evening. Thor: Darian claims he's reached 1000 Justice Points, then he raised my Mjölnir Hammer and ran off... When the world questions his methods, Darian just shrugs and says, “I’m just playing by the rules.”

"I am not Superman. I am Homelander." The whisper was an internal prayer, a caustic reassurance. Outside the glass tower, the world saw only the Homelander, the Icon, the Man Who Flew the Bomb. They saw the perfect, smiling face of the hero who, in the chaos of the Battle of New York, carried a nuclear warhead through the wormhole and saved a city. The cheers from the streets below—the deafening, worldwide adoration—were the fuel for his ascension. He was crowned their king, a savior in star-spangled spandex. In this new reality, fame wasn't just influence; it was power. He had a system now: the Superstar System. The higher the popularity, the stronger the abilities. It was a viciously simple contract, one he embraced completely. "Matt," he purred into the spotlight, curing the blind lawyer's eyes on live television. "Your city needs an icon, not a devil. Let the light in." He assembled his own team—a perfectly marketed, perfectly managed Super Seven—with Spider-Man now running PR and Daredevil as his reformed protégé. Every action was a performance; every enemy, a prop. When the news of a purple alien named Thanos reached his gilded penthouse, Azu smiled, a blinding, dangerous flash for the cameras. "Thanos," he murmured, the adoration of billions surging through his veins, making his skin feel like charged steel. His eyes flared with a dazzling red light that promised annihilation. "I heard you're going to wipe out half of my fans?" He was trapped in the Marvel universe, now its most powerful celebrity. And the show had only just begun.

The ordinary world is not what it seems. Many strange events unfold in the background but go unnoticed by the masses or are covered up.

The girl loses almost everything she has and then takes the steps needed to become a Balance Breaker. Her past identity has to be abandoned for the sake of survival so she renamed herself Ash. Ash gains the powers of a Skin-Walker and begins living in such a world taking on the appearances of others, experiencing their lives and living under the mask of another person.

I am currently in Konoha and have just become Orochimaru's apprentice. "So, is the Sharingan's transformation from one tomoe to two or three tomoe due to genetic mutation, or something else?" Staring at the restrained Uchiha test subject in front of him, Kenichi Amamiya's eyes shine with intense curiosity. Orochimaru silently accepts the thick stack of pages in his hand, titled “Research Report on the Impact of Soul Reincarnation on the Body.” When Orochimaru receives a paper titled “Research Report on the Impact of Soul Reincarnation on the Body” from his disciple, only one thought crosses his mind: This kid is even more dangerous than I am

The accumulation of five hundred years - triumphs and failures - will be naught but ash with dawn's first light. The rising of the sun bathes the mountains in golden flame, but 'tis sunset upon the demon's time. The demonic overlord, Fang Yuan, is cornered by his enemies after word gets out that he refined the Spring Autumn Cicada - a gu worm rumored to be capable of having a chance at sending one back in time but demands a terrifying price in return - the user's entire existence!

Voldemort is dead. In his final moments, a bright, cheerful voice echoes in his mind. Would you like to start over? Tom Riddle answers yes without hesitation. Of course he wants another chance. Whatever the price is, he will pay it, as long as he gets to do it all again. When he opens his eyes, the former Dark Lord finds himself in an orphanage in 1991. Only this time, everything is wrong. He is no longer Tom Riddle. He is a girl named Tamara Riddle. And to make it worse, she is bound to a ridiculous Virtue System. [Welcome, your account has been bound to the Virtue System!] To become stronger, she must accumulate virtue points. Tom: I am Voldemort. I can kill whoever I want. [WARNING! Strong murderous intent and malicious attack detected!] [Penalty activated: Level 1 electric shock.] With her eyes still stinging from the shock, Tom forces a gentle, harmless smile, while quietly calculating how to eliminate everyone in the room. But as the days pass, she does not kill a single person. Instead, the people around her start to like her. Then trust her. Then protect her. And when the truth finally threatens to surface, nobody believes it for a second. Harry snaps, furious: “What nonsense are you spouting? Tamara cannot possibly be connected to the Dark Lord!” Tamara only sighs, soft and tired. “Sorry, Harry. He is already the Dark Lord.”

"I was called evil just because I killed a few Gods—Is that right?!! "My actions were justified. Who wants to worship beings who are nothing but power-hungry tyrants?" "So, I slayed them." *Haha!* After a battle that shook the Earth beyond anything recorded in history, the most feared entity—a rogue god—was finally vanquished: the God of Darkness. With his defeat, demi-gods and gods finally found peace, relieved of the threat he once posed. But peace came at a cost. As punishment by the supreme gods, Azrael, the rogue god, was transmigrated into a human body. Stripped of his divine powers, he now had to start from scratch, trapped in a mortal shell that could not sustain the will and power of a god. Just when all seemed lost, a new hope arose. [Ding!!] [New body sustainable unlocked: Reptilian skin] [20% of power gained] [Mission: eradicate all living things in a 20 mile radius] "I am coming for you all!!" **** [Note: Please don't forget to add to your library, and support thank you] Also, not a harem.

My family sold me to a monster to settle their debts. The whole country knows the rumors. Nicholas Sterling is a hideous, reclusive beast who shuns the light, a man whose face was ruined in a fire and whose heart was twisted by cruelty. They say he buys beautiful things—especially women—just to break them. I was delivered to his cliffside manor with nothing but the clothes on my back and a heart full of dread, a sacrificial lamb to keep my sister alive. I expected a grotesque tyrant. I was not prepared for him. A man with the face of a fallen angel and the presence of a king. His eyes aren't cruel; they're haunted by a grief so deep it steals my breath. His touch isn't violent; it’s a question that terrifies me even more. He calls me his wife. He gives me the run of his castle. But he also watches me with an intensity that feels like possession. And the one rule he gives me is the most chilling of all: Never go into the west wing. But in a house built on lies, how can I resist? The truth is waiting behind that door. And it’s more beautiful, and more terrible, than any beast.
