After working and pulling an all-nighter studying for W City University, Josh Lyonne has a heart attack in the middle of an exam and is rushed to the hospital. He dies and is reborn as a baby tiger in the virtual beast-taming game world of Tanglewood. In front of him is Kaline, a young girl with her hand placed on his head. After a strange sensation, he feels a bond between the two of them. He is now officially a tamed beast, and the young girl is his tamer. Explore the world of beast taming from the perspective of a tamed beast.

The world is not as empty as it seems. Hidden beneath ordinary cities, forgotten highways, and quiet towns, something ancient and inhuman still moves—and most people will never know how close it gets. Axl, Cedric, Garath, and Ace travel the world in a battered RV, chasing rumors no one else believes. They are Hunters, trained to face what humanity was never meant to see. Some rely on brute strength and experience. Others carry gifts that feel more like curses. Together, they survive by instinct, loyalty, and the unspoken rule that no hunt ever ends clean. Each stop on the road brings a new threat, a new choice, and a new cost. Monsters are not always mindless, and humans are not always innocent. As the line between protector and executioner blurs, the crew must decide what they’re willing to sacrifice to keep the darkness buried. Note: The novel does NOT take place in earth,it takes place in an alternate reality. And so the names of the continent, countries,states etc will be different ;) https://www.royalroad.com/profile/902970/fictions

My arm ached where the needle pierced the vein. Already, my fingers were numb, spots spinning in front of my eyes. Something clattered onto the pavement. The needle. It must have slipped out of my hand. Nothingness swirled around me, bringing the first sense of peace that I'd felt since...ever. But that was okay. It meant that there was no one to miss me, and no one I would miss. Well, perhaps there would be a few, but they could always find others to extract their cruel, sadistic pleasure from. My last breath was rough and shallow, the last beat of my heart pitifully fail. I sank to the alley floor, eyes closing, welcoming the blessed nothingness of the end. Only...death was supposed to be dark, wasn't it? And since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

In a fantastical world where humans, werewolves, vampires, elves, espers and malicious spirits coexist, the ancient, devastating war between werewolves and vampires has finally ended. A fragile peace lingers in the ashes of conflict. Charles, a noble alpha of the werewolf clan, is breathtakingly handsome, powerful, and revered by all. Cold, domineering, and used to controlling every situation, he softens only for one ordinary vampire girl—devoting to her all his tenderness, obsession, and unyielding love. He shields her with ruthless authority, surrounds her with unwavering devotion, yet old hatreds between the two races remain, dark spirits lurk in the shadows, and sinister plots from other races threaten to unravel the world. As fate, life-or-death crises, and forbidden love collide, he will fight the entire world for her. And she becomes the only light in his darkness.

The population now sits just under 20 million, a sharp contrast to the original 8.2 billion.

Mysterious gates appeared all around the world a few decades ago. Beings emerged from the gates and brought disaster upon humanity. Humanity called them Demon Spirits. It wasn’t until the advent of Demon Suits and Demon Suiters that humans stood a fighting chance. For some perplexing reason, the world’s number one Demon Suiter, Li "God" Xiu abandons his identity to start over again as a newbie trial-taker.

'하나의 사이'는 '빛이 없는 영역'과 지구상의 인간으로서 상상할 수 없는 도전에 직면하면서 두 전쟁 사이에서 고군분투합니다. 인간이 인류의 생존을 목표로 외계인과 동맹과 적을 만드는 지구의 미래 전쟁입니다. 이들의 임무는 미래의 인간 전쟁과 '빛이 없는 존재들과의 전쟁'을 종식시킬 수 있는 해결책을 찾는 것입니다. 이 배를 통해 지구의 과거에서 인간이 된다는 것이 무엇을 의미하는지 이해할 수 있습니다. 그들은 행성을 관찰하고 진화적으로 발전하는 동안 지구의 주민들을 연구합니다. 멘토와 함께 지구의 아름다움과 잔학 행위를 배우고 목격합니다. 최후의 심판이라는 짐을 안고 있습니다. 한편, 다른 차원에서 그들은 '빛 없는 영역'의 혼돈에 직면하게 됩니다. 형제들 사이에서 평화를 찾기 위해서는 어둠 속에서 살면서 고통을 통해 혼돈을 받아들여야 합니다. '사이'는 형인 '빛 없는 주'와 조약을 맺고 말로 하지 않은 비밀을 배우고 오랫동안 풀리지 않은 질문에 대한 답을 찾기 위해 노력합니다. 이 모든 혼돈 속에 신이 있을까요? 이 고통스러운 여정에서 '사이'가 추구하는 지식이 해답이 될 수 있지만, 마음을 파괴하지 않고도 얼마나 많은 지식을 얻을 수 있을까요? '빛 없는 영역'과 형의 혼돈은 그들의 빛을 파괴하고 그들이 두려워하는 괴물로 진화시킬까요? '혼돈의 존재'? '사이'는 자신이 찾고 있는 것과 전쟁을 끝내기 위한 해결책을 찾기 위해 모든 것, 심지어 정체성까지 희생할 의향이 있습니다. 인류는 자신의 파괴에서 진화할 수 있을까요? 지식은 제정신을 가질 가치가 있을까요? '인간'이 된다는 것은 진정으로 무엇을 의미할까요? 최종 판결은 그 양심에 무게를 둡니다.
