Life is dark and meaningless. That was what it had taught every single day I'd been cursed to live it. And now, finally, it was coming to an end. 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?

Not every uma was born for the spotlight. Most flare, then fade. Burning out like dying stars, forgotten in the dark. Black Dahlia grew up in the wreckage of broken dreams, but when tragedy shatters her world, she finds her road on Japan’s infamous outlaw circuit: The Midnight Run Association (MRA). In a world of money, neon streets, and crews built on loyalty and betrayal, Dahlia teams up with Logan, a disgraced former trainer with nothing left to lose. Together, they blaze through back alleys and highways, outrun the law, smashing through rival crews, and risking everything on the asphalt. Each win puts them closer to the top of the Blacklist—where the fastest, the fiercest, and the most dangerous wait.

Kaizen Vale, an ordinary man thrust into an extraordinary world, awakens in a void where gods dictate his fate through a mysterious system. Faced with 100 perilous missions, ranging from personal growth to moral dilemmas and chaotic, god-designed trials, Kaizen is challenged to survive a brutal journey where every choice reshapes his destiny. With newfound powers like Ki Control, a sharp wit, and a burning desire to unravel the truth behind his predicament, Kaizen ventures into a world teeming with adventurers, towering wolf-men, cunning elves, and the ever-present threat of death. Each mission brings him closer to the ultimate prize: ascension to godhood. But as Kaizen navigates treacherous alliances, battles monstrous foes, and confronts the darker corners of his own morality, he must decide if the cost of becoming the Almighty is worth the sacrifice. Will he rise to godhood, or will the system break him before he reaches the end? The clock is ticking, and the system waits for no one.

As a soon-to-be chieftain, Ashlani's responsibilities were numerous, complex, and often boring. As a recently reincarnated keelish (a reptilian pest), his responsibilities only extend to 1. survive another day, 2. keep his belly full, and 3. kill anything that keeps him from numbers 1 and 2. Oh, and, if the opportunity arises, take revenge on his friend turned brother turned murderer. Ashlani was sent on his inaugural hunt as the chieftain-to-be of his tribe when he was shot in the back by the man he was closest to, the one he called his closest friend. Post-mortem, he was greeted by a [System], the elect, singular keelish representative. Now, his focus must be on continuous growth and evolution, to awaken to his grand potential, and lead his new people to a new age. This is a reboot of my previous novel, Ashlani's Reincarnation, a grimdark take on a LitRPG reincarnation novel. This is a slower, more methodical approach to story, and I hope that its quality will reflect that. I update five times a week, usually weekdays, but if I miss a weekday, I make it up over the weekend.

Ayan lived a quiet life filled with routine, silence, and nothing to look forward to—except one thing. The virtual world of Aetherion. There, he met Aelira, a gentle NPC who felt more real than anyone he had ever known. She smiled, she remembered, and she cared in ways that didn’t feel programmed. Until one day… she spoke to him. Not to his character. To him. Thinking it was a glitch, Ayan stopped logging in. But her voice didn’t disappear. “Why didn’t you come?” And when he finally saw her in the real world— She pushed him. When Ayan opened his eyes again, he was no longer in his world. He was inside Aetherion. And waiting for him… was the girl who was never meant to know his name.

Ashton is stuck between an underwater volcano, and a heart devouring dragon. Metaphorically speaking anyway. The princess of the sea has sworn on her mother's life to drag him down. Problem is, Ashton can't be killed. So after hundreds of years of pulling beasts of legend to her side, rewriting history, and backing him into a corner where he broke his heart into pieces, she thinks that with one final push... she may convince Ashton to simply end his own existence. Ashton is fully aware of her little schemes, it's not every day a dragon get's its still beating heart ripped out, then is bound to the land it ruthlessly conquered. Ashton would have even found it mildly poetic that the slain dragon was now forced to bless the land for all eternity... if, and emphasis on the IF, the blessing hadn't been twisted into a curse for the last 700 years. Now, Ashton has a few minor inconveniences to deal with. First, he's stuck in a decaying body. Second his memories aren't fully intact. Third, it would prick his pride if the descendants of "blessed" dragon died while he was in their territory. Fourth, he has two really, really, REALLY scary siblings that don't always bother with the details. Fifth, the only reason this princess and her grandmother even had the chance to scheme against him is because he was looking for a possible mate. He's the only one of his kind, thousands of years alone has him craving for a companion... for a heart to sing just for him... There are really only two outcomes now that Ashton is starting to regain his memories. Will the princess succeed in dragging him down, used as the new sacrifice to keep the "blessing" going, or will he ascend? Well, maybe three outcomes. Maybe this time a heart will sing for him as he ascends... a bird can hope.

Xin Huohuo is very unlucky; she accidentally brought home two freeloaders, and they're even seriously picky eaters. What's the use of being handsome! Can you pay with your face? Can you use it for mobile pay? What's more, she also attracted a sinister character, along with a long trail of ghosts. A black-bellied, money-loving girl + a goofy, violent guy + a stone-faced, sharp-tongued guy; the shady dealings of these three rascals. Eighth Lord: (Mysteriously) "Life and death are all gifts from life itself..." Seventh Lord: (Impatiently) "What does that mean? I don't understand plain talk!" A certain Lord: (With a deadpan face) "Everyone, go to hell! Hmm, the girl stays." Xin Huohuo: (About to cry) "This is the ultimate meaning of 'the early worm gets eaten by the bird'!"

They called the Abyss a place where even gods disappeared. Across kingdoms and ruined lands, hunters chase whispers of an unknown existence tied to vanishings, distortions, and something darker than death itself. Meanwhile, a silent traveler walks alone through the world with no memory of who he truly is. He does not know why animals avoid him. Why the forest grows quiet around him. Why people feel something wrong before he even speaks. And he does not know the most terrifying truth of all— The being the world fears may already be walking among them. As strange forces begin noticing his existence, reality itself starts reacting in ways it cannot explain. Hunters close in. Ancient powers awaken. And somewhere beyond the edges of the known world, something waits for him to remember. But the human body he walks in is only a vessel. And if what sleeps inside it fully awakens— the world may not survive it. Nihilfire Reborn: God on a Vessel — A dark atmospheric fantasy about identity, restrained destruction, and a presence the world was never meant to contain.

Chains of galactic slavery, a massive corporate conspiracy, and the unyielding spirit of a man who refuses to bow down! * Genre: Sci-Fi, Space Opera, Action-Adventure, Progression Fantasy * Themes: Corporate Conspiracy, Family Redemption, Revenge, Genetic Evolution (A.Z Genes) 1. Backstory & Worldbuilding Centuries ago, a massive galactic syndicate descended upon Earth. Humanity initially believed it was a peaceful bridge to the stars, but it was a calculated trap. The 'Black Emerald Army'—a mercenary force—conquered Earth and sold the entire planet to the amphibious 'Blue Eye' species for 3.2 billion Tox (galactic currency). Humans were scattered across deep space and auctioned off as slaves. 2. Inciting Incident The protagonist, Yuta (19), belongs to a specialized human lineage capable of rapidly adapting physically to harsh environments. Yuta worked at a branch of a high-risk share-trading firm, where he was appointed "CEO" in title only to serve as a corporate scapegoat. When the firm's fraudulent stocks crashed, the local government enforced the law of Collective Punishment. Yuta, his mother, and his older sister Pihu (whose dream of becoming an elite Galactic Officer was shattered) were all arrested. Slapped with an astronomical 1 million Tox debt plus buyout fees, they were condemned to debt-slavery. 3. Planet Noon & The Dual Struggle The family was transferred to Planet Noon—a fractured artificial prison world where inmates wear explosive neck collars and magnetic cuffs. To clear their debt: * Yuta's mother and sister chose Agriculture, cultivating crops through spiritual 'Soul Energy' and genetic resonance links. * Yuta took on a lethal double workload: assisting on the farm by day and pulling grueling 12-hour shifts in the Mines by night. 4. The Major Twist: The Abyss & The Legacy On his very first shift, Yuta struck a rare Golden Ruby crystal worth 10,000 Tox. His fortune attracted 'Big Bro' Jonathan, a brutal half-giant who ambushed him. During a tunnel explosion chaos, both plummeted into a bottomless subterranean chasm (Abyss). Landing on an isolated ledge, Yuta discovered the corpse of 'Mora'—a senior researcher from M.O.L. (a ruthless bio-gene megacorporation). A final video log revealed the galaxy's ultimate secret: > A.Z Genes Medicine: An ultra-rare genetic fluid that unlocks the absolute peak evolutionary state of any species. It enables dual-elemental abilities (e.g., combining Fire and Water) and unleashes limitless soul energy. Its market value ranges from 1 Billion to 100 Billion Tox! > The researcher had hidden the fluid inside the grave of an officer named Ronaljes in the colony's Death Garden. Yuta retrieved the compressed micro-chip key and was subsequently rescued by prison guards. 5. Current Conflict & The Road Ahead Back on the surface, Yuta used his mining profits to upgrade his family's farm and secure their survival. * The Strategy: Human bodies and souls reach full biological awakening at age 20. Yuta is counting down the days to his 20th birthday so he can safely inject the A.Z Gene Fluid without risking fatal biological overload. * The Goal: Harness the god-like power of the A.Z Fluid, wipe out his family's debt, shatter the chains of galactic slavery, and systematically dismantle the corrupt corporation that destroyed his life.
