She doesn’t know she was once loved. He doesn’t know she’s still alive. When the girl he thought was dead returns, will love survive the truth that tore them apart?

Short diary style storytelling of what if we experience these things

20xx, the year the world had finally been free from chaos and endless war against monsters and evil entities. The players had already won the battle and now, they returned to their worlds. A happy ending, if some would say. But for the inhabitants of the earth, it was nothing but tragedy. The world was left barren and all living things are on the brink of extinction. And with the goddess' wrath, all hell broke loose and doomed the earth. It was already the end for the earth and its people. But to Cipher, it was just the beginning of his regression to save it. ********* Note: Chapters will be published on a weekly basis, with new updates released every Monday. ********* Hey, there! Yaj here, and hope you like reading my WSA 2022 entry. To understand a little backstory of Cipher, read the prologue in chapter 0. You can follow me on my Twitter and IG accounts.

The Dao was never meant to awaken. It existed only as a silent consciousness that kept reality in balance—until the day it shattered itself into countless conscious Dao Paths. When those Paths clashed, entire worlds vanished. To mortals, it was extinction. To immortals, it was judgment. Far beyond every realm, inside the Vast Emptiness where no Dao could reach, two fragments were swallowed by the Void. They drifted through endless nothingness, unaware of who—or what—they once were. They felt only one thing: loneliness. So they created. From pure will, they shaped worlds, formed life, and built a hidden universe inside the Void itself. And from their union, a third existence was born. He was not a fragment of the Dao. He was something else. An anomaly. He doesn’t know the outside universe is dying. He doesn’t even know what the Dao is. Yet deep within him lies a truth that could restore everything—or erase it forever. But before he can face the fate of all existence, he must first learn what it means to live… as a God born from nothing.

A world devastated by an ancient cataclysm. Cities lie in ruins, societies have collapsed, and dangerous factions fight for survival. The apocalypse has awakened latent abilities in a fraction of the population. These powers are unpredictable and often deadly. After the apocalypse, survivors discover they are developing dangerous abilities. Kael, a quiet scavenger, awakens a mysterious power during a life-or-death moment. He’s thrust into a chaotic fight for control as factions with awakened powers clash. Guided by Lyra, hunted by Mordain, Kael must understand the nature of his power before it consumes him, and perhaps save what remains of humanity.

“By the time I’m finished with you, you’ll forget your own name… but you’ll never forget mine” —————×————— Amalia Moretti should have died in that alley. Instead, Dante Castellano decided she was worth saving. A mafia king feared for his cruelty and power, Dante doesn’t rescue people, he claims them. With one signature on a contract, Amalia becomes his wife for a year, trapped in a world ruled by blood, secrets, and control. Living under Dante’s roof means obeying his rules and enduring his attention. Every touch lingers too long. Every look feels dangerous. Fear turns into heat, and hatred blurs into desire. What starts as possession becomes obsession. But as Amalia digs into the truth behind her brother’s death, she uncovers lies that threaten everything Dante has built and everything she feels for him. Loving him could destroy her. Leaving him might get her killed.

I make my own.” From zero to multiverse MVP—this is the rise of the guy who didn’t come to play. He came to break the game.

(SI/No Meta/OCxNaruto endgame/full "reconstruction" of the entire franchise through Shippuden and Boruto) I died in the wrong forest…and woke up in Konoha, in the body of a girl. I was an anxious second-grader bleeding out in the woods. In this one I open my eyes in a hospital bed, as “Sylvie” – an orphan with no clan, no past, and a body that feels strangely more right than what I left behind. The village calls me just another stray, but one loud blond boy with whisker marks decides otherwise. I become Naruto’s first real friend...and, when Team 7 forms, the kunoichi standing where Sakura would have been. This is Naruto’s tale of never giving up. It’s also mine: the boy who died once, became a girl, and refused to let anyone face their nightmares alone. And in a village built on shadows and used to treating children as tools: staying together is a war of its own.

Evelyn Walters was the perfect heiress, until one reckless night with her father’s greatest enemy ruined everything. Pregnant, disgraced, and cast out of the Walters family, she left with nothing but her unborn child. Years later, she's survived. But as a single mother, the life she built was fragile until the man from her past discovered the truth. Now he wants her and his son. But how can Evelyn trust the father of her child... when he's also the enemy of the man who raised her? **** Excerpt: "B-Boss... the woman you slept with that night... she wasn't the supermodel the company just signed," Dylan stammered, his voice trembling. Axel's brow furrowed even further. He tried digging through the hazy, alcohol-soaked memories of that night.  Of course, he remembered the party. He remembered the whiskey. But the woman? Nope. His brain served up a blank slate. "Who was she?" Dylan swallowed. "The first daughter of William Walters." "Cough! Cough!" Axel coughed violently, his face turning red and eyes wide with shock. He never thought that woman would end up in his bed.  --- Curiosity won, as always. Evelyn grabbed the remote and hit the power button. The screen lit up, and her jaw dropped. Her eyes went wide, as if the Grim Reaper himself had just stepped out of the TV to ask for her phone number. “What the…? Why does my personal source of misery pop up the second I turn this thing on?” Because there he was, Axel Knight, gliding out of his luxury car like some corporate deity on his way to a business banquet. Evelyn scrambled for the remote to turn it off, but of course, fate had other plans. Axel turned to the camera and gave a casual wave, acknowledging the paparazzi vultures lined up outside. She hated to admit it, but the man looked sinfully good in his signature black suit and high turtleneck, his sleek black hair framing a face that could stop traffic and quite possibly her breathing. Then, suddenly, her stomach clenched. Her hand instinctively rubbed her flat belly. “Little tenant, did you just say you recognize him?”

What is this madness? I've been reborn in the world of Kaisen Jutsu. I've acquired Obito's Kamui technique. Furthermore, it seems I've become Zenin Obito in the Jujutsu world—a worthless, insignificant person with no special skills in life, and an outcast from my family. The only thing I'm grateful to the despicable person who brought me into this world for is that he didn't make me a woman like in that other stupid story. Now I'm trying to learn the cursed energy along with the memories I received from the previous loser in order to survive and not become the disgusting creature that Naoya Zenin calls me. It seems I'm literally his employee, a means for him to boast and become even more of a narcissistic bastard. Now he controls my life and is forcing me to join the Kyoto Jujutsu Academy.

A soul is reborn into the Zenin Clan of the Jujutsu Kaisen world, named Mukuro. Branded as useless under the influence of Heavenly Restriction and cursed fate, he is cast aside together with his elder brother, Toji, as so-called “failures” of the family. But is that truly the case? Naraka, Preta, Animal, Asura, Human and the Deva path—with the eyes of Six Paths of Reincarnation, Mukuro will rise to become the strongest. 100 Powerstones = 1 Extra Chapter. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• To read 26+ advance chapters and support me, visit my p@treon at - P@atreon/SilverShark769

In his previous life, Shen Xiao witnessed the world collapse and saw Lu Qingyue, the Desolate Frost Empress, sacrifice herself for humanity.

Have you ever read a novel with such a terrible ending that you wished you could change the story and give the characters you loved the happy ending they deserved? ~~~ I was just another failure of an author, writing stories nobody read, and that never sold. Seeking to improve my writing, I read the most popular novel at that time, Solo Player, to learn what made it so popular. However, as I read this story, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated about the story’s development, which had a terrible ending. Eventually, and quite bitterly, once I ended reading the book, I found myself transmigrated into the very world of this novel. Did I become the Protagonist? A Villain? Or perhaps even an Extra? No, it was much worse than I imagined. Because I ended up becoming the most worthless character that nobody ever cared about in the novel. A character that is often considered the motivation for the protagonist to grow stronger, but also his greatest burden. Someone every reader hated! “I’m the protagonist’s sister…” However, with my knowledge of this novel's events, my worthlessness was about to change. I’ve decided to not only become the strongest but also change the story’s terrible ending! “I won’t let you go inside a Dungeon, it’s too dangerous.” ...As long as I can get this incredibly corny and overprotective brother out of my way! And for some reason, the Constellations won’t stop bothering me. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Butterfly That Flies Across The Universe} seems interested in your tenacity!] [She has sponsored 1000000 Plot Points and the [Demon of Calamity Transformation Technique (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} finds your chaotic nature amusing!] [He has thrown the [Umbral Chaos Stone Necklace (S Rank)] at you!] [Not enough? He launched the [Immortal Heaven Peach (SSS Rank)] right on your face!] There was something really wrong with the Constellations this time around. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} is happy that you’re bringing despair to your victims!] [He has gifted you the [Jester’s Last Laugh (S Rank Privilege)] and the [Master of Manipulation (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Maiden that Watches Over Nature} seems happy you’re growing stronger.] [She has gracefully sponsored you with 2000000 Plot Points and Fully Heals All Your Wounds!] [She has also begun to wonder if you could plant some trees for her, gifting you the [Divine World Tree Seedling (SSS Rank)]!] [The Cosmic Throne {Warrior That Seeks Calamity} is satisfied with your battle performance but asks for more battle!] [He has sponsored you with 500000 Plot Points and [Beheading Sword of Destruction (SSS Rank)]!] They simply couldn’t stop gifting me things as if I were some sort of famous streamer for them. “I am grateful, but please just leave me alone already…” Chapters are long, 1500 ~ 2000+ words.
