Lin Feng's dream was very simple: to become a highly skilled, popular musician. To gain a firm footing in the unpredictable entertainment industry, he activated a system that, among other things, had an auxiliary function dedicated to minimizing all uncontrollable interpersonal risks. His creed consisted of only four words: emotional stability, team perpetuity. Thus, he was rational, calm, and "maintained" every relationship around him like a delicate instrument. To prevent relationships from breaking, he never disappointed anyone; for the sake of team unity, he would respond to expectations no matter how late. Years later, when he stood center stage on the world platform, looking at the former girlfriends, current girlfriends, and rumored girlfriends sitting neatly in the audience, and facing the sharp media accusations of him being the "Century Sea King" and the "Music World Bulldozer," Lin Feng clutched his guitar, his face full of weary innocence: "If I told you that, at the beginning, I honestly just wanted to prevent the band from breaking up, would you believe me?" This is the story of a completely steel straight man who, in order to practice his guitar properly, was forced to navigate the treacherous waters of a love shuraba, and who, in the end, unknowingly charmed his way through the entire entertainment industry. ~~~~ I wrote this book with the help of AI.

In the year 2248, humanity has achieved unparalleled technological advancements but soon discovers they are not alone in the cosmos. Multiple dimensions teem with exotic beings, including the predatory Menos, who lay siege to Earth, and mystical creatures called beastmeres, which can be tamed. Amidst this chaos, Kenny Voss stands as the weakest warrior and beast tamer in his empire—struggling for the approval of his powerful father and the respect of his prodigious brother. His fortunes change when he stumbles upon a dragon's egg, a titan-level creature that could either elevate his standing or draw the dangerous ambitions of those who seek to claim its power. Now, Kenny must navigate treacherous alliances and threats while hiding the dragon from looming dangers, all while harnessing its immense power to bolster his strength. He is the only line of defense between humanity and the onslaught of the Menos, but will his newfound abilities be enough to save his world and prove himself to those who have always looked down on him?

Manchester United, once a dominant force in world football, finds itself struggling under Erik ten Hag despite having the financial power to rebuild. Big-money transfers fail to restore the club’s glory, forcing Ten Hag to shift his focus to homegrown talent. Among the overlooked prospects in the U18 squad is Leo Calderon, a 17-year-old central midfielder buried deep in the pecking order. Lacking physicality and dismissed by teammates as weak, Leo endures constant ridicule from those who dominate with strength and athleticism. But during one ordinary training session, everything changes—Leo suddenly sees passing lanes no one else can, angles of play invisible to even the most talented prospects. Yet, there’s a problem. His vision surpasses his ability. The passes he attempts don’t connect, his technique unable to match his newfound awareness. Coaches dismiss his efforts as sloppy, and his struggles continue. But one unexpected observer—a visiting League One assistant coach—notices something different. He watches Leo’s movements, seeing potential where others see failure. As Leo fights to prove himself in an unforgiving system, the question lingers—can he refine his raw talent before the club moves on without him? ****************************** Also, all rights reserved for the companies and teams and also players I use in the novel since I don't know how image rights work and I'm too lazy to search it up on Bing-, I mean google Also, character arts are not mine or AI-generated.

From the currents of genetically variable magic, beings arose that did not conform to the traditional principles of magic, known as Anomalies. (Note from VV : To simplify this. It's the world where everyone has video games-like skills.) VV: Hi, dear readers! Just a quick heads-up before you dive in. This story is set in 2022—yes, our modern world—just, you know, with fantasy stuff mixed in so smoothly you’d think it’s been there forever.

Anyway... the story follows Kenji Taro, a fourth-year exchange student fresh from London, navigating life at Starlight International School. Sounds normal enough, right? Well... let's just say the school has a few "Unusual" surprises up its sleeve more than Kenji could ever guess.

Li Tang was reborn on the eve of the new millennium. He knew the trajectory of the mining market over the next twenty years, had the coordinates of every newly discovered supermine, and understood the intricate details of century-defining mergers between mining giants. While experts lamented that all the rich mines were in the hands of major players and that the giants were troubled by aging and depleting resources, turning from exploration to ruthless corporate takeovers... A group from the East kept working miracles—discovering deeply buried, shockingly rich mineral deposits again and again. From scorching deserts, frozen Arctic lands, and uninhabited primeval forests, they extracted tons of ore. Fully loaded cargo ships, the industrial lifeline, thundered across the seas toward the East. He had advanced exploration technology, wielded capital like a club, and maneuvered deftly through complex global politics—completely disrupting the mining industry's global landscape. When he speaks, the world listens. One foreign mining analyst exclaimed: “He is already the sole mining oligarch on Earth!” Thank you for the support, friends.
