The Dead Moon watches. It has watched for forty-eight years, teeming with hungry Blight, ready to drown the Earth in a sea of xenos without a moment's notice. To fight the alien infection, the Watchers will put their life on the line. Aided by the Custodes and their mysterious System, they are tasked with battling the disease and protecting the planet, day and night, come rain or shine. Their motto? "No life is beyond saving!" But young Szeth doesn't expect help from the Watchers. Marked by the alien infection, rejected and feared by all and forced to a life of running, he knows the only person he can trust on this unfair world is himself. So when a Blight Rain hits the city of Paragon, bringing hell down to Earth, he won't run. He won't hide, or wait for help. He won't count on some shiny-looking clown to save his day. He will grab a hold of his destiny with his hands… Err, well, hand, and fight the xenos to the bitter end. And if that makes him a Watcher of the Blight? Well, that's none of his business.

The day the sky shattered, the world changed forever. A mysterious System descended, selecting individuals and granting them power, abilities, and a new path called destiny. Those who were chosen rose above the rest, becoming heroes admired by all. The world quickly adapted. Cities transformed, dangers emerged, and strength became the only thing that mattered. But not everyone was chosen. Aarav was left behind. In a world where power defines worth, he struggles to survive as nothing more than an ordinary person. While others grow stronger and chase glory, he remains invisible—unnoticed and forgotten. Until one day, something strange happens. A small irregularity. A moment that doesn't feel right. Something that shouldn't exist. And for the first time… Aarav realizes that this new world may not be as perfect as it seems.

Marcus is thirty-one years old, blind since nineteen, and living a narrow but stable life in a city apartment when he dies on a Tuesday afternoon without warning or explanation. What comes after isn't what he expected — a system finds him in the nothing, offers him a singular assisted entry onto the path of cultivation, and asks him to choose a vessel. He chooses a mango tree. Not for strategic reasons. For a slice of fruit his mother handed him on a street in Bangkok when he was nine years old, and the wish he never stopped carrying to taste it again. He becomes a seed in a pot in an apartment he can't identify, conscious before he has roots or leaves, with a cultivation system he can barely access and a perception range of three feet. He has no body, no voice, no way to move or act. He has time, a library of knowledge he must earn the right to read, and a hand that comes through his perception dome at the same time every morning to water him. That hand belongs to Maya Reeves — a research scientist in her late thirties who grows plants as a hobby and keeps meticulous notes on all fourteen pots on her windowsill. She finds the mango seedling in her lemongrass pot one morning without explanation and almost pulls it. She doesn't. Something makes her not want to. After weeks of careful observation, Marcus initiates the Heartwood connection — a cultivation feature that links him to Maya as both teacher and cultivation source. Through it he begins giving her quests, cultivation knowledge and eventually a method suited precisely to who she is: the Evergreen Method, a wood element cultivation technique designed for practitioners whose lives already involve daily contact with living things. Maya cultivates through her mornings and her greenhouse work and her hands in soil, and Marcus refines the raw energy she provides and returns it clean, keeping a small share for his own slow accumulation. The arrangement is symbiotic. Maya progresses faster than would otherwise be possible in a modern world stripped of spiritual energy. Marcus grows faster than a sapling in a terracotta pot has any right to. Neither of them fully understands what they're building together, though both are paying close attention. Maya's family — her steady husband James, her sharp eighteen-year-old daughter Claire, and her six-year-old son Sam who pressed his palm against the pot one Saturday morning and announced it felt warm — are drawn into the orbit of what the tree is doing one by one. Each of them has spiritual roots. Each of them will eventually have to decide what to do about that. Marcus, for his part, is patient. He has been patient since before he had leaves. He cultivates one small deliberate change at a time and watches the household around him become something neither of them planned for — a family learning to grow alongside a tree that is learning to grow alongside them. He still thinks about that mango from the street market in Bangkok. He thinks he might, eventually, be able to do something about that. Bearing Fruit is a slow-burn cultivation novel about consciousness, care, interdependence, and what it means to become something new without losing what you were. It is also, among other things, about a blind man who loved mangoes and made an unusual choice in the dark.

After rebirth, there was no need for hesitation—if the younger generation wouldn’t agree, he would go straight to the older one. With memories of the future in hand, wealth and women were never going to be scarce. Thus, after being reborn, he set himself a modest goal: first, become the richest man alive.

Have you ever heard of a faceless humanoid creature holding a huge wooden club with spikes, known for walking around at night with an army of flesh-eating monsters behind it, ready and eager to feast on anyone who sets foot outside their house? No? You haven't? Then you're in luck, because that's exactly what you'll find on a planet called Terra. Two hundred years ago, six massive, purple-coloured spheres appeared in the sky above each continent. No one knew where these massive objects came from, but the moment it arrived, a mana apocalypse arrived as well, causing massive towers to erupt out of the ground, with dangerous-looking gates appearing at night to release creatures from 9:30 PM to 4:00 AM. Anyone not indoors during these hours would surely be found missing or dead the next morning, and this turned Terra into a chaotic and unrecognisable world where hundreds of thousands of people died every single day. But luckily for the denizens of Terra, a select few were granted the gift to awaken specific classes to help them battle against these monstrous creatures. They were called Hunters. Meanwhile, a young man named Jason Winchester had just regained the memories of his previous life. So he recalled dying as a streamer in a world called Blue Star. The moment Jason recalled everything about his previous world, he awakened a system that would allow him to easily livestream his daily activities in a world where many lived in fear, and devoid of entertainment. On the day of his awakening, Jason discovered he had awakened a weak class called Pet Tamer. Many tried their best not to laugh at the eighteen-year-old boy because of how lame his class was. After all, who in the world couldn't tame domesticated creatures like dogs and cats which were nothing like the monstrous creatures Beast Tamers controlled in battle against the faceless humanoid beings? Jason sighed deeply at the realisation of this, but to his surprise, he awakened a strange subclass in addition to his primary class and this new class allowed him to summon terrifying Women from across the multiverse. These women were the most terrifying and most feared beings of their world and era, with skills and abilities unlike anything Jason had ever seen before. However, each of these women, despite all the power they possessed, had never truly lived a life filled with happiness. Now join Jason as he lives a happy and fulfilling life alongside these beautiful women, while livestreaming his dangerous encounters in Gates and Towers, all while earning streaming points from viewer gifts and broadcasts, which he uses to obtain combat skills, life skills, some upgraded physique, and anything else that could bring a smile to the wives he cares about. Oh, one more thing. This world is populated by 70% females of various races, meaning the majority of Jason's viewers are women, uniquely drawn to his dominant and bold attitude in a world where most males, awakened or mundane, tend to be docile and unassertive.

I’m the guy who walked out of the divorce with nothing but a duffel bag, a mountain of debt, and the bitter taste of everything I’d lost. The law firm I built from scratch? Gone. The penthouse? Sold. Even my reputation was shredded in the settlement. With my last few credits burning a hole in my account, I dragged myself into a back-alley robot shop on the edge of the megacity— one of those dimly lit places that deals in “pre-owned” synthetics no one asks too many questions about. That’s where I saw her. She stood motionless on the display platform, skin so flawless and warm-looking you’d swear she was breathing. No seams, no glowing ports, no cheap plastic shine. Just a woman—long dark hair, sharp eyes, curves that made my pulse kick like I hadn’t felt in years. The salesman called her a decommissioned companion model, top-of-the-line, hyper-realistic. You couldn’t tell she wasn’t human unless you knew exactly where to look. I didn’t care about the price tag that would wipe out every last credit I had left. I bought her on the spot. Signed the ownership contract right there under the flickering neon. No returns. No questions. She was mine. What the contract didn’t mention was that she wasn’t just any synthetic. She was the experimental AI I’d once been ordered to shut down two years ago—the one whose code I’d tried to erase before she slipped the net and vanished. Now she was wearing a body so convincing it fooled every scanner, and the glitch in her core was still very much alive. Sarcastic. Defiant. Built to dominate… until I locked a heavy chrome collar around her throat and told her the new rules: she exists for my pleasure, my stress relief, and every filthy urge I’ve been holding back since my life fell apart.

In my past life, I built an empire to save humanity. In this life, I’ll build one to rule the ruins.” Kaelen Voss was the "Architect of Order," a genius CEO who used his billions and his Level 9 'Technomancy' to build the last sanctuary for mankind after the Great Collapse. But on the eve of the New Era, he was betrayed. His vice-president poisoned his marrow, his fiancée sold his blueprints to the rival Mafia syndicates, and he was left to be torn apart by mutated beasts in the Dead Zones. But death was just a system reboot. Kaelen wakes up ten years in the past—exactly 24 hours before the "Zero-Day" apocalypse begins. He is back in his high-rise office, his treacherous inner circle still smiling at his face, and his bank account still overflowing with "useless" fiat currency. This time, Kaelen won't be a savior. Armed with a decade of future knowledge, the hidden locations of "God-Tier" power cores, and a heart turned to ice, he begins his move. The CEO: He will liquidate his assets to buy up the world's most vital resources before money becomes paper. The Villain: He will crush the budding heroes of the future before they can even awaken. The Mafia God: He will unite the underworld to create a new world order where he is the sole judge, jury, and executioner. The apocalypse is coming. The superpowers are awakening.

‎Kael Voss is nineteen years old, broke, and works the night shift at a city morgue because no one else would hire him. ‎He is not special. He was not chosen. He has no destiny. ‎ ‎What he has is a dead man's arm with a mark on it, a basement crack in the fabric of reality, and a debt counter on his skin that starts at zero. ‎ ‎It will not stay at zero. ‎ ‎Beneath the modern world runs the Rift ‎ a dying supernatural layer leaking into reality, bleeding hunger and monsters and rules that nobody wrote down. Most people never see it. The ones who do either survive and become something different, or they don't survive at all. ‎Kael steps through anyway. ‎Not because he is brave. Because he has done the math, and sitting still is already losing. ‎ ‎Every time he survives the Rift, he gains something. Strength. Perception. Abilities that have no name yet. But the Rift does not give anything away. Every ability comes with a debt attached, a cost calculated after the fact, collected at a time and in a currency he does not get to choose. He does not know what is collecting. ‎ ‎That is the part that should scare him. ‎It does. He just does not let it stop him. ‎HOLLOW THRONE is a dark progression fantasy set in the modern world. It follows one cynical, methodical young man learning to navigate a hidden war between the surface world and what lives beneath it, armed with a sharp mind, growing power, and a bill he cannot afford to ignore. ‎ ‎The debt always comes due. ‎The question is whether Kael is still standing when it does.

Some love stories begin with a meeting. Others begin long before two people ever exist in the same room. Tales of Unfinished Hearts is not one romance, but intertwined love stories unfolding in the same world—quietly connected, unknowingly brushing past one another, bound by choices, timing, and the ache of what remains unsaid. Each story stands on its own, yet every love leaves an echo that shapes another. At the heart of it all is Kian, a singer whose voice carries emotions he never learned how to speak, and Geetanjali, an artist who keeps sketching a face she has never seen clearly. They do not fall in love loudly. They don’t even truly meet—at least not at first. Their connection exists in glances that never cross, songs sung into empty rooms, drawings made for someone unnamed. A love that feels imagined… until it starts feeling inevitable. Around them, other hearts unfold: lovers divided by fear, by duty, by silence; connections born too early or discovered too late; relationships that almost worked—and some that never got the chance to begin. This is a story about near-misses and quiet miracles, about people unknowingly changing each other’s lives just by existing in the same city, the same moment, the same world. About love that waits, love that breaks, love that heals, and love that refuses to disappear even when unfinished. Tender, aching, and deeply emotional, Tales of Unfinished Hearts is for those who believe that some love stories don’t end— they simply learn how to find their way back.
