And when even gods fall… the Creator creates something worse.

Taiko believed the Ant Arena had left him the last survivor—the only one who had managed to escape his reputation as a Grimm killer and find the light thanks to Kuinn. The Heroic Faculty at UA Academy was supposed to be his chance at redemption, a place where the past would no longer hold sway. But Kyudai Garaki always had a backup plan. Long ago, the Mad Doctor outdid himself by creating AFO clones. As a result, Taiko finds himself drawn into the game, while behind him stand the figures of Director Nezu, Rikiya Yotsubashi, Kyudai Garaki, and Madam President, weaving their own webs.

​I didn't run. I lunged forward into the yellow fog, my "Focus" narrowing my reality until only the math of the air existed. I drew a single, black-oxidized needle and channeled a discordant Wind-Nature pulse into the tip, matching the 18.2 kHz resonant frequency of the pollen grains. ​Ability: Static Membrane (Aerosol Variant). ​The yellow cloud didn't explode. It underwent a Structural Collapse. The high-frequency vibration shattered the molecular cohesion of the pollen, turning the neurotoxin into harmless dust that fell into the mud with a wet thud. ​I appeared behind the Senju specialist, a man clad in blue-plated iron that looked slick with condensation. He was mid-sign, his fingers forming the Snake seal. ​Analysis: Linear velocity V = 16 m/s. Reaction window: 120 ms. ​I didn't use a fireball. I used Biomechanical Precision. I stepped into his guard, my shoulder hitting his sternocleidomastoid muscle with 650 Newtons of force. As he gasped, I drove my palm into his sternum, injecting a 115 Hz vibration directly into his vagus nerve. ​His heart rate didn't just drop; it entered Ventricular Fibrillation. He collapsed into the viscoplastic mud, his system crashing into total failure.

Thousands of years ago, humankind left the Old World. We enter a new age where science and magic are no longer opposing concepts. With these new opportunities came danger in the form of the Dark Races and the ones that named themselves Gods. However, if there was one thing humans were good at was their ability to destroy. Humankind fought and carved a bloody path into the new world. Cain's luck had never been good, but his destiny changed forever once he decided to harden his heart and face the world without fear or hesitation. --Godslayer Humankind's motto.-- We can comprehend the supernatural. We can dominate the supernatural. We can kill the supernatural - Adam, Emperor of Godslayer Humankind, The First Titan. Current schedule: 21 chapters a week.

|3X FEATURED · SHORTYS 2025 SHORTLIST · AULD LANG SYNE HONORABLE MENTION · WATTPAD CREATORS PROGRAM| #SupportPacificIslanderVoices Erin, a conflicted Elemental Spirit, embarks on a life-changing journey across the ocean as the first hurricane of the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season. *** Erin hasn’t been an Elemental Spirit for long, but she has watched the Earth change right before her, becoming more unrecognizable each day because of humans. As her first journey across the Atlantic Ocean approaches, she has one goal and one goal only: to eliminate the humans. Take them out one by one, starting with the Caribbean. As Erin moves her thunderstorms away from Cape Verde and begins organizing into a massive hurricane, she starts seeing the world from different perspectives: between ships, islands, animals, and even the Hurricane Hunters investigating her.  When she nears peak intensity in the Caribbean, Erin faces the toughest question of all: “Is this right, or am I just another monster?” That’s something the young hurricane must figure out on her own. *** *A short story inspired by Henry Loomis’s quote in Jurassic World Rebirth: “When the Earth gets tired of us, believe me, it will shake us off like a summer cold.”* *FYI: This is a story, not a science lesson, so don’t expect everything to be completely accurate.* *Moral: There is just as much good in the world as there is evil.* *Word Count: 5,000 exactly (500 words per chapter).*

In the Kingdom of Vaelis, power decides who lives, who dies… and who lies well enough to survive. Mireya Vale is meant to be nothing. Ungifted. Quiet. Forgettable. Just another girl thrown into the Crown Trials, clawing her way through the brutal Iron Spire where the weak are erased. Then there’s Jax Calder. Everything Vaelis fears. Everything it obeys. The kingdom’s perfect enforcer. The architect of the Iron Spire. The hunter sworn to wipe rebellion from the streets—starting with the elusive Black Thorn. Jax believes in control. In discipline. In breaking threats before they become legends. Until Mireya. There’s something about her… something sharp beneath the silence, something defiant in the way she meets his gaze and refuses to bow. He should crush her. Eliminate her. Walk away. Instead, he watches. Protects. Burns. Drawn together by tension they refuse to name, desire coils where hatred should live—and every stolen look feels like a betrayal waiting to happen. Because in Vaelis, enemies don’t fall in love. They destroy each other first.

In the cursed realm of Noctyrrh, night has ruled for centuries—an eternal darkness bound by a blood-forged curse that absorbs grief, memory, and truth to keep the realm alive. Lumi Reyes, twenty-two, is a rare Truth Bearer, gifted—and burdened—with the ability to hear the truths the night consumes. Her role is to interpret these truths for those in power, at the cost of her own certainty and identity. Blake Crowe, twenty-four, is the Dreadsword Prince: heir to a throne built on shadow, trained to rule a realm that cannot change. To stabilize political unrest and deter foreign powers, Lumi and Blake enter a strategic arrangement—publicly presenting as lovers to project unity and control. As they navigate court politics, rival factions, and the looming influence of the Concord (a coalition eager to exploit Noctyrrh’s curse), Lumi uncovers a devastating truth: the curse sustaining the realm is not eternal—it is transferable, and Blake is expected to inherit it. When betrayal within the council accelerates this plan, Lumi and Blake must choose between survival through sacrifice or dismantling the very power that defines their world. Their false relationship deepens into genuine love, complicating every decision. Lumi learns that the curse was never meant to be ruled—only endured until the people were strong enough to live without it. To break it, she must relinquish her identity as Truth Bearer, surrendering immortality, certainty, and power in exchange for a human life. Lumi chooses freedom. The curse unbinds. Noctyrrh survives—but altered, mortal, and finally capable of change. Blake refuses the crown, helping establish a flawed but accountable governance. Together, they learn to love without prophecy, power, or permanence. Years later, the night remains—not as a prison, but as a companion. Lumi’s stories preserve what truth no longer must. The novel closes on a quiet affirmation: endings are not failures, and love does not require destiny to endure.

When Demons climb out of the Abyss, wearing human skin, and walk among you and me— Power is never free. Its price can be quantified. Paid in memories. In flesh. In sanity. What will you give? How much will you pay? When the Blood Moon rises twice over the earth, Demons are born from human madness. Raphael was once the youngest agent of the Southern Federation. He was betrayed, hunted, and left to die by the D-Fraternity. But he did not die. He returned from hell after trading his memories and body. Signing a contract with Demons in exchange for power. Now, this city will be his hunting ground. And he swore— to send Demons back to hell.

Corvus Ashford knows oaths are lies and survival is rebellion. So he rebels in full—unflinching, drenched in scarlet, and never smiling.  He was born to mayhem, but his brutal existence is interrupted when he collides with two sisters fleeing toward a promised sanctuary. Corvus learns the value of life. The sisters; the price of it. Together, they will find that mercy and cruelty are but faces of the same god.  To survive the coming Change, they must sacrifice the very things that once made them human. What to expect: Epic Scale: The first of four planned novels (Change, Loss, Conquest, Stygian). Progression without Numbers: No blue boxes. No status screens. Power is earned in blood, insight, and loss. Consequence-Driven: Plot armor does not exist here. Mistakes leave scars. It is a fantasy meant to be read by a fireplace on a quiet night, amid the whispers of your own thoughts. A story meant to be savored, not binged.

The most dependable (sarcastic) assassin -- Gao Xuan. Developing himself with an inventory of powerful gear. A master of biding his time, backstabbing, and brutalizing weaklings. Don’t love me. Nothing would come out of this. I am an assassin without feelings.

Andrew Black — A Tale of Levison Dalte is a dark, multi-part saga set in the kingdom of Wruning. It follows Levison, a young assassin shaped by violence, who at the age of twelve slit his own brother’s throat by request. Not just any request, but one made by the brother himself, and sanctioned by the Black Association, an infamous group of killers. Nine years have passed. The nightmares haven’t. Levi is still haunted by green eyes, black dragons and a brother who only ever asks one thing: forgiveness. But Levi doesn’t forgive. He doesn’t wish peace on the brother who left him behind to save himself. Levi wants him to suffer. And yet, it’s Levi who cannot escape the torment. Now, the name no one has dared to whisper since that blood-soaked night resurfaces alongside secrets that threaten the very foundations of the Black Association… and the bearable existence Levi has only just managed to carve out for himself, a life stitched together not with joy, but with survival. It begins with a letter. A request for death. Sent to Andrew Black “the Father” to his sons and reigning head of the Association by none other than Merlissa Highmore, the beloved niece of the king. Heartbroken and desperate, she pleads for her life to end. Andrew sends his most troubled, most loyal assassin to assess the situation. Levison. Neither man expects what follows. What begins as a simple mission spirals into a war of ghosts and grief, dragging them all into a web of loss, vengeance, and unraveling identities. For Levi, what was meant to be a clean job becomes something far messier, something sweeter. Bound by shared tragedy, Merlissa and Levi find themselves entangled in a love with an expiration date. Because once Andrew Black accepts your name… survival is never part of the deal. Still, Levi hopes. Through Merlissa, and through others—Gavin, his cheery and devoted servant; Audria, the crown princess hiding a double life; Mortis, the old, caring physician; Hugh, a fellow “Son”; and Master Luu, Levi’s brutal mentor —Levi starts to open his heart again. But for every step forward, death drags him back two thousand steps.

Title: The Killer in God's Name ​​Is a work worth reflecting on, when justice is always late, only 'God' can save the world. ​The protagonist is a girl who is as pitiable as she is blameworthy, self-proclaiming to be a "god" to judge humanity. There are no miracles, no powers; there are only ruthless schemes to punish the sinful. ​This is essentially a battle for personality between good and evil, between righteous justice and the "god's" justice. This is the journey of a once-kind girl transforming into the one the whole world fears. ⚠️Warning: This work contains depictions of violence, antisocial psychology, and other fictional elements. Please consider the negative themes carefully before proceeding. [This work has been translated from Vietnamese; minor inaccuracies may occur.]

Caelan was born with a mark that should not exist. In a world governed by rigid laws of power and order, his mark refuses structure, hierarchy, and reason. It shifts, it hides, it bends the space around him as if reality itself were only a suggestion. As the world quietly begins to fracture and truths are buried beneath silence, Caelan feels no fear of death and no desire to be a hero. Curiosity is the only thing that keeps him moving forward. While kingdoms fight to preserve a dying system, he seeks something far more dangerous. To discover what lies beyond infinity, and whether existence itself is meant to endure or collapse.

"When the Shan Hai Jing stops being a bedtime story and starts being the truth, something ancient and hungry wakes up in the dark under our feet. It’s got teeth from a time before God had a name, and it’s coming for us. Humankind won't be a civilization anymore; we’ll just be meat on the table." 山海经 不再是传说... 古牙 从地脉苏醒，吞噬人间！ Gruesome slaughters broke out all at once across the globe, a supernatural bloodbath with no earthly explanation. A shadowy outfit that’s been operating since the Song Dynasty finally dug up the truth—and it was a nightmare. Those things aren't bedtime stories anymore; they’re the 'beasts' from the Shan Hai Jing. They’re real, they’re awake, and they’re coming for us. It isn’t just about the hunger for human meat, either. They’re looking to wipe us off the map entirely. Or maybe—just maybe—it’s our own fault. Maybe we’ve spent so many centuries stacking up our own filth that it became a long-distance call to the dark. An invitation they couldn't refuse.
