When Earth was suddenly wrapped by a colossal root known as the World Tree, humanity discovered a brutal fantasy realm hidden inside—complete quests, stats and deadly trials. Few failed and returned back to earth. Fewer survived it and proceeded. Ahrie Von Creed, One of the strongest trainees in terms of combat ability ever recorded in history, enters the World Tree ready to blaze through his trial… Unfortunately, his assigned Ent was out on a coffee break. By the time the Ent returns, the trial is nearly over—Ahrie is casually patching himself up with first aid. The Ent blinked at the scene. “Ohhh, Support!” the Ent said, marking it down without a second thought. Potential Skill Progression: Support Skill Unlocked: [P.A.I.N.] – Physical Aid Initiated by Neutralization A high-impact healing skill. The stronger the hit, the faster you recover. “You're a healer?” “Yup.” Ahrie cracked his knuckles. “Stay still.” “WAIT, WHA—” “Activating [P.A.I.N.] — Physical Aid Initiated by Neutralization.” “...That doesn't sound like healing—” SMACK! “...HUH?!” “I—I’m healed?!” He’s not holy He’s not gentle. But he will keep you alive— If you can survive the treatment.

Liú Tiānyuè has wandered the earth for more than three hundred years as a zombie. Time eroded her memories of being human, leaving behind only fractured images she cannot place — and a deep, instinctive hatred of humanity that feels older than her undead existence. As the Zombie Queen, she has known only hunger, power, and endless solitude. Until a space rift tears her from her world. Thrown into an unfamiliar realm, Tiānyuè awakens in the body of a newly married woman — the wife of a crippled man and stepmother to seven young children struggling to survive. Weak bodies. Empty cupboards. A household on the brink of collapse. At first, she sees them as nothing more than fragile creatures. But children are persistent. And warmth, once felt, is difficult to forget. As she slowly bonds with the seven siblings, something long buried within her begins to stir. For the first time in three centuries, Tiānyuè makes a promise — not of destruction, but of protection. She will give them a good life. She will shield them from hunger, cruelty, and every threat this world dares to send. And anyone foolish enough to target her children should remember one thing: Zombies do not give second chances. And Liú Tiānyuè is their queen.

Everly, a connoisseur of orphan-to-riches tropes, always assumed her origin story began with a dramatic abandonment at the orphanage gates. Turns out, her life was even more cliché than her favorite novels! She wasn't merely dumped; she was swapped—a long-lost heiress to a vast fortune. Just when she thought her life couldn't get any more tropey, a mysterious System materialized, offering her a chance at a "good ending." The catch? Its "abilities" ranged from the utterly bizarre to the downright mortifying, making Everly question if a happy ending was truly worth the existential cringe. *** System 006: [Host, please choose 1 of these 3 system abilities!] Everly: "They're all weird! Let me just pick random!" System 006: [Hehe... host, I forgot to say that each system will have consequences, so something will happen to you when you use it...] Everly: "!!!" Days later, having been reunited with her biological family and experimenting with the System's... unique function, the consequence were already glaringly apparent. Her beloved brother: "My little sister is precious, but I need therapy to keep up with her alien-like thinking." Handsome man 1: "She's a pervert! I'm scared she'll take my innocence..." Handsome man 2: "Every time she talks, I feel like killing her. Is that normal?" NOTE: Please disconnect all logical circuits before proceeding with this novel, as it's an absolute chaotic comedy where the MC, Everly, has several screws loose in her brain. Don't expect much normalcy here—sanity checked out long ago and never came back.

Viola was once the pride of her pack, destined to rise above everyone on the day she received her wolf. Instead, that day marked her fall.

But the Moon Goddess is rarely kind. Viola carries something ancient within her, something dangerous, something powerful enough to defy him. Hate twists into desire. Desire ignites into fierce passion. And passion threatens to become love. But when Sebastian discovers what Viola truly carries within her, will it save him… or destroy everything he’s built? ~~~ WARNING: MATURE CONTENT! #Slow burn #Spicy #Morally Gray ML #Adventure #Angst

"Papa!" I lunged for the door, but Marco, Papa's security chief grabbed me by the waist stopping me from going in. "No, Miss Iris! Don't." Too late. I'd already seen inside. My father, the king of New York's second-largest crime syndicate, Domenico Russo, who’d raised me by himself after Mama died and who had taught me how to stand strong in a world of monsters, was spread out behind his desk in a spreading pool of blood. So much blood. "No, no, no…" I tore out of Marco's grip and fell to Papa's side, my knees snapping on the marble. The blood was hot and foul;soaking through my dress instantly warm and obscene. "Papa, please breathe. Please stay."

(trigger warning. This book contains mature themes) ****** "I can't..." she gasped between broken moans, her voice trembling somewhere between pain and pleasure. Every thrust seemed to blur the line between surrender and defiance. Then she whispered a name between her sweet cries ...it wasn’t mine. I froze. A slow, humorless smile curved my lips as the sound of his name filled the space between us. “Raph…” she breathed. I leaned in, my mouth brushing her ear. Feeling her tremble from touch until my teeth nibbled her earlobes hard enough to make her whimper and her fold to clench around my fingers. “Wrong name, Lynn.” I hissed, withdrawing from the warmth of her insides. I felt her body tense. She clawed at my shoulders, a desperate plea in every touch. “Don’t…” she whimpered. Those jade-like eyes unravelled me that moment. I could feel the ache in my trousers. A troublesome little viper. A cruel smile traced my lips hiding my emotions. “You called the wrong name,” I murmured, my voice low, dangerous. “And bad girls deserve to be punished.” Her glossy eyes met mine... so full of confusion, want, and power she didn’t yet understand. If she only knew how close I was to breaking. Because the only name she should be calling… was mine. Lucien. I craved it as badly as the air I breathe. ****** For better or for worse, till death do us part. That was their vows at the altar, but her husband broke them first..

All he wants… is her, no matter how sinful it gets.

Leo had a problem. Don't be like Leo! It wasn't that he was poor. It wasn't that he was unlucky. It was that he had been cursed, or blessed by the Accidental Tycoon System. The rules were deceptively simple. Any money he lost on an investment would be returned to him, doubled. His life's new mission was crystal clear. He had to go bankrupt. In a high-tech world of S-Rank Heroes, magic, and newly-contacted alien civilizations, this should have been the easiest thing to achieve in the galaxy. He just had to become the biggest, most spectacular loser the universe had ever seen. So, he tried. Oh, how he tried... He threw billions at publishing a dungeon guide written by a 10-year-old. The maps were in crayon, and it listed the final boss as a Big Grumpy Badger. [Breaking: New S-Rank dungeon called 'The Whispering Labyrinth' appears! All high-tech mapping drones fail. A lost F-Rank porter used the crayon guide... and it's 100% accurate. The final boss is a 50-foot divine badger. The Galactic Union has declared the guide a 'holy text' for exploration!] He bought the galaxy's most useless moon, planning to build a 'Museum of Paint'. [Alert: Ancient magical ley-lines discovered under the moon's surface! It's the only place in the universe that can safely grow the 'Star-Lotus,' the key ingredient for immortality!] To the Intergalactic Hero's Guild, the Magic Academies, and the Alien Federations, Leo was the god of investment whose every move was like 5D chess that ordinary people couldn't understand. Heroes would soar with his sponsorship. Alien emperors offered him their daughters' hands in marriage for a single 'tip'. But Leo just stared at his bank account, which now displayed his wealth that he couldn't use on himself, with tears streaming down his face. "Please," he cried, "I'm trying to fail! Why won't you just let me be poor?!"

Logan ends up in a world of familiars, where everyone can make a contract with a familiar to get super power and grow stronger. The first familiar Logan summons is a legendary angel, and it draws a lot of shock and envy. But fate messes with him, because right when Logan is about to make a contract with the angel, the angel looks down on his plain background. "Someone as noble as me—how can I be driven by a low-born bloodline?" After that, she goes over to the noble-born school beauty, leaving the whole crowd full of sneers. Right then, Logan awakens a system, and he can see all a familiar's hidden info and evolve their bloodlines, talents, and skills without limit. "Since it won't listen, I'll switch it out, the next one will be more obedient!" With everyone laughing at him, he just made a contract with a low-level succubus. "A low-level succubus? Once this kind of familiar gets off the bed, its fighting power isn't even as good as a hyena!" "A loser with a succubus—this kid will never have to worry about women anymore, haha!" ... Many years later. When demon fire lights up the stars and blood-red wings cover the sky, people finally realize—standing behind Logan are all those ancient, scary beings from myths and legends.

She ran from love once. This time, love won’t let her go. Four years ago, Sophie disappeared without explanation, leaving behind the only home and the only man she had ever loved. She told herself it was the right choice — that protecting her heart meant protecting the family that saved her after tragedy took everything from her. But when she returns, nothing is the same.

Forced to face him again, Sophie tries to rebuild her life at the hospital, convincing herself they can remain nothing more than friends. Until everything changes. A forgotten night. A hidden truth. A child tying her fate back to him. And just when her heart begins to drift toward someone safe, another woman appears — threatening to take Harley away for good. For the first time, Sophie feels it clearly: She never stopped loving him. But love is not enough when fear, guilt, and years of silence stand between them. This is a story about love that waited, love that broke, and love that found its way home.

After transmigrating into a cultivation world, Li Xuan thought his luck had finally arrived. A dying old man entrusted him with the position of Sect Lord of a “great and glorious sect,” passing on a token and proclaiming him the future ruler of countless disciples. But when Li Xuan arrived at his inheritance… There were no disciples. No elders. No spirit beasts. No treasures. Only a collapsing gate, broken halls, and weeds taller than the main pavilion. The so-called supreme sect was nothing more than a ruined mountain with a fancy name. Just as despair set in, a mysterious voice echoed in his mind— [Sect-Building System Activated.] • The Host is invincible within sect territory. • The Host cannot leave sect territory. • Expand territory to receive rewards. • Recruit disciples. • Establish dominance. • Conquer realms. Each time the sect’s influence expands, divine rewards descend: Ancient techniques. Heaven-defying artifacts. Mythical beasts. Even fragments of lost realms. Trapped within his mountain yet unmatched inside it, Li Xuan begins rebuilding from nothing. One disciple becomes ten. Ten become a hundred. A hundred become an army of immortals. As territory spreads and realms begin to converge, the world slowly realizes: The ruined sect on the forgotten mountain… has become the axis of heaven and earth. Within his sect, all realms unite.
