In an era where lineage is destiny and the gods walk among men, a soul from modern India is reborn into the Suta (charioteer/artisan) class of Hastinapur. Unlike Karna, who burns with the desire for social recognition, or Arjuna, who is burdened by the weight of royal expectations, the protagonist, Viran, awakens with a singular, cold advantage: the Absolute Proficiency System. ​Viran enters the Gurukul of Dronacharya not as a prince or a favored disciple, but as a shadow in the background—a neutral observer who refuses to be drawn into the spiraling rivalries of the Kuru princes. While the halls of the Gurukul echo with the rising jealousy of Karna and the growing pride of the Kauravas, Viran focuses on a different goal: the mathematical perfection of war. ​Through the System, Viran realizes that "Divine Astras" are not just boons, but high-frequency energy signatures that can be mastered through sheer repetition and physical resonance. By performing millions of repetitions that would break a normal man, he achieves the legendary Vajra Body—a physical form so dense that mortal steel cannot pierce it—long before the first conch of war is blown.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

Every "Diver" gets 96 hours on Earth before the Black Thirst disease drags them back... Back to Thirstfall—a brutal otherworld where a ruthless system called Ocean's Law decides who lives, who dies, and who gets erased. Most Divers break within a year. Dryden Sands lasted ten. He clawed from nothing to Rank-A with a class everyone called trash. He mapped hidden dungeons, cracked the system's blind spots, and survived things that shouldn't be survivable. Then the person he trusted most killed his family and took everything. Including his life. But dying triggered something—a relic fused to his soul that no one was supposed to find. It didn't save him. It reset him. Same world. Same body. Directly to Day one, when everything started. He knows where every secret is buried. Every trap. Every traitor. But his body is Rank-F, his new class is rated SSS, his time is bleeding out, and the system has already flagged him as something that shouldn't exist. In Thirstfall, the ocean doesn't just drown the weak. It hunts who shouldn't belong anymore. -------------- #No harem. #No romance plot armor. #Mostly survival.

In the year 2247, the world as humanity once knew it has crumbled into the remnants of a fallen civilization. Beneath a rotting atmosphere and relentless storms of toxic dust that devour all life, the last refuge of humankind lies sealed within colossal glass domes known as the Seven Biotope Enclaves, controlled by the central government. But a buried truth is about to be exposed. When the most perfect bioweapon ever created escapes from a hellish research facility, the ironclad order of the domes begins to fracture. This is not merely an escape. It is the beginning of a world-shaking infiltration. A worthless scavenger boy is forced to join forces with an immortal weapon as they venture into the heart of a hidden power, confronting genetically engineered killers and uncovering secrets long buried beneath silence. The single key that will decide the fate of the world may lie within someone’s final breath. When the government sees you as nothing more than a test subject, rising up is no longer a choice. It is the only way to survive.

Hi! My name is [Redacted], but most people just call me Focaccia Bread — or Foca. I’m writing this mostly for fun, but also to share my stories, my questionable life choices, and the music that somehow came out of them. Come along for the ride as I recount how I accidentally built a successful entertainment company and somehow helped create actual music legends. Fair warning: I do not tell stories in order. My brain jumps timelines like a fever dream, so expect chaos, time skips, and zero apologies. I’m weird. I’m quirky. I embrace it with both arms and half a bagel. I know — I’m cringe. But at least I’m free. XD If you wanna listen to the Jams (Music) appearing here, you can go listen to them in YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@FocacciaBread-Music) or Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ecDiwv85yqoktTR4h569L?si=CHJzNohaTwiTgukcKickMQ) and other streaming platforms.

Ten years ago, two godlike beings known as the Celestials descended upon Earth, destroying cities while declaring that a tournament of deadly trials will take place and humanity must fight for its survival

Eve never believed in fate...until three ruthless alphas claimed her as theirs. Desperate to save her dying mother, Eve works as a masked dancer at Eclipse, the city's most exclusive club, where anonymity is her only protection. When the infamous Blackwood triplets—Damian, Damon, and Silas, offer her an obscene amount of money for a six-month exclusive contract, she accepts despite the terrifying rumors. Girls whisper about their brutality, their insatiable appetites, and the way they share everything... including women. The first night, Eve discovers the rumors don't do them justice. Damian commands her body with cold precision, every touch calculated to break down her defenses. Damon's dangerous playfulness pushes her past limits she didn't know she had, making her crave the edge of fear and pleasure. Silas watches with obsessive intensity, learning every tremor and gasp, demanding complete psychological surrender. Together, they overwhelm her....three predators claiming their prey in the most primal way possible. But something is different about Eve. While other women break under the brothers' dark desires, she endures. She matches their intensity, craves their brutality, returns night after night hungry for more. They're possessive in ways that should terrify her, marking her body as their territory, but her skin burns hotter under their hands than it ever has before. The brothers don't understand why they can't stay away from her. Why her scent drives them to the edge of madness. Why the mate bond...something they never believed they'd find...pulls them to this masked human with increasing, undeniable force. Then Eve's body begins to change. After three days without them, she collapses, her body shutting down from a hunger no food can satisfy. When Damian touches her fevered skin, her eyes glow amber and an ancient binding spell shatters. The truth explodes between them in a wave of desperate, consuming need: Eve isn't human. She's a succubi—a creature who feeds on sexual energy to survive. And they are her fated mates. Suddenly, Eve's nightly visits become her lifeline. She needs them...needs their touch, their dominance, their insatiable desire....or she'll die. A dark paranormal romance of fated mates, brutal alphas, and a queen who was born to rule them all.

(SI/No Meta/OCxNaruto endgame/full "reconstruction" of the entire franchise through Shippuden and Boruto) Bronze Winner – Webnovel Fanfic Fiesta! 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.

Arc One Complete. *** Everyone else capped at 20. Will Wick woke up with 30 Luck and an error message where his ceiling should be. That was the least strange part of his morning. The voice in his head—ancient, unimpressed, and absolutely certain Will is doing everything wrong—belongs to history's greatest conqueror. Genghis Khan has reviewed Will's memories, assessed his life choices, and has opinions. Loud ones. The main one being: the trillion-dollar corporation that harvested humanity's souls to power their own empire needs to be dismantled. Sector by sector. Server by server. Until the cage they built around this world belongs to someone else. Khan has done this before. Last time it was the Eurasian steppe. The principle, he insists, is exactly the same. Will already lost his family to the cold, corporate math of the old world. Now he's stranded 100,000 years in the future, on an Earth that healed itself while humanity was gone, facing billionaires who bought their way to power before the System even dropped. Genghis thinks this is fine. Genghis has a plan. Will is pretty sure the plan involves conquering everything. He's not wrong.

Warning: Heavy sexual content and a fucked up male lead. Throw morally grey out the window. Excerpt: "Do you trust me?" His hand drifted to her neck. If he had asked her to walk into the fire with him right then, to tumble willingly into chaos, she would have said yes without hesitation. Her entire body shivered as she nodded, heart hammering, her pulse a wild drum against her ribs. "Always use your words, Bambola. Do you trust me?" he asked again. "Yes…yes…" Her back arched against him instinctively, skin flushed and glistening, every nerve screaming, every muscle taut and alive. Luca's other hand tightened at her neck, squeezing until she gasped for breath. The sensation was exquisite and terrifying, every nerve ending alight as he manipulated the fine line between restriction and pleasure. Vee squeezed her eyes shut, nails digging into his arm as she clung to him, her breath rattling in her chest. He sensed her reaching the edge and drove her closer, the hand at her neck tightening harder. "Luc…" she choked out, a fragmented plea that shattered as her body convulsed, releasing a hot, desperate wave against his fingers and the rug beneath them. Synopsis: She insulted the devil.

Second World: The True and False Daughter “Just because I'm not capable enough, does it mean I don't deserve to live?” Liang Kui harboured deep resentment when she found out the truth of the world.

Set years after a devastating nuclear collapse, Red Signal: Echo of a Lie follows survival in a broken world where danger isn't always visible.... and trust is fragile. As reality fractures under pressure, endurance becomes psychological as much as physical. And freewill is not to be negotiable. Lyra Vex was raised by the Rebellion to destroy the Council. She trained for years in secrecy, believing she was fighting for freedom against the Council’s oppression. But when she finally infiltrates the Order, brutalized and brainwashed to act like one of them, she learns the horrifying truth: The Rebellion was a fabrication. A carefully engineered psy-op—created by the Council—to build the perfect infiltrator. Now, caught between a war she was designed to ignite and a truth too dangerous to expose, Lyra must decide: Will she fulfill the mission they programmed into her… or become something no one could control?

It was never a bright idea to deceive a vampire. Yet, she did it anyway. Human enslavement at the hands of vampires has long been abolished — in name, at least. Desperate and out of options, with her father dying, she slips into the castle of the highest-ranking vampire nobles, and hides in plain sight as a servant. It almost works. Until she’s noticed. Not by just anyone, but by the one Lord no one dares to cross. He doesn't kill her. He does something far worse. Claimed as his pet, Hiln is dragged into a world where control is currency, desire is dangerous, and survival means learning the rules of a monster who seems far too interested in breaking her. Because in a court built on blood and power, a mad vampire's interest might be far worse than death. ⚠️Content warning: This story contains dark themes including sex, abuse, violence, and morally grey characters.
