Nille F. Tsukuyomi, great-grandson of Amparo Pilar Fajardo and Takeshi Tsukuyomi, carries in his veins the hidden legacy of the spirits that dwell between the human realm and the unseen worlds. A mark etched upon his right shoulder bears witness to this power, a silent sigil of destinies intertwined. Born of both Filipino and Japanese blood, he is also a direct descendant of Tsukuyomi, the Japanese moon god, the crescent moon etched beneath his tattooed Enlil symbol glowing with quiet significance. Towering at six feet, with silver-gray eyes that pierce through darkness and long black hair that flows like midnight, Nille stands as a living convergence of two ancient mythologies. In a world teetering on the edge of war, haunted by the remnants of forgotten gods and restless spirits, he must navigate the duality of his heritage, awakening powers drawn from both the ancestral spirits of the earth and the divine luminescence of the moon. Enemies lurk in every shadow, drawn to the strength and legacy he carries—those who would seek to claim it, and those who would destroy it. Yet Nille’s path is not only one of survival; it is a journey of identity, of destiny, and of mastering the delicate balance between mortal blood and divine essence.

Beyond it lies the Hunting Realm—a place where monsters are born from fallen Hunters, and something is beginning to push through. Hunted by a creature he cannot understand, Ryo is dragged to a sanctuary between worlds and forced into a choice that was never really his: take up a Kizugami, a living blade forged from wounds, or die before dawn.

As the weapon begins to search his soul, Ryo is pulled into a war he never asked to join—one shadowed by an impossible Eye in the sky, a relentless Kaimon on his trail, and an ending that may already have been decided.

When dungeon gates opened across the world, it became a gold rush. Hunters chased glory. Guilds chased power. Corporations chased profit. Phong Tran awakened as a Level 1 Farmer. No skills. No passives. A broken EXP bar that never moved. So he sold energy drinks instead. Leg warmers. Electrolytes. Power banks. If everyone else was digging for gold, he’d sell the shovels. Then Josh came. University golden boy. Gym-built. Son of a man who could erase problems with a phone call. “Protection fee.” Phong refused. He woke up in a hospital bed, beaten within an inch of death. His aunt and uncle were gone. No bodies. No investigation. No media coverage. Just silence. Then, as if the universe had a sense of humor, his system finally gave him a quest: Plant and harvest 10 potatoes in the dungeon. That’s it. No penalties. No forced missions. No ticking clock. No promise of justice. Just a choice. Phong takes it. The potatoes mutate. Then other plants followed. Chilies spit burning rounds. Sweet potatoes bulk up into blunt-force bruisers. Garlic turns chemical-warfare illegal. Enoki mushrooms rattle like dungeon-grade machine guns. His crops become his frontline. Phong doesn’t want to conquer the dungeon. He wants to build something inside it. A farm. A hearth. A settlement for people tired of being disposable. He won’t let revenge be the only thing he grows. Revenge lit the spark. But it won’t be the only thing he grows. And if the most powerful man in the city comes looking to finish what his son started... He’ll learn something the dungeon already knows. This farm fights back. Schedule: One chapter a day. Two chapters on weekends. I’ll post at 11 a.m. and 12 p.m. server time.

A story about the sudden end of normal life and how with mysterious help the universe is conquered. The story starts in 2018 in our world and then no longer follows the past events. This story is told from the first person perspective. Sometimes at least i found it very difficult to create many chapters in this style in a really meaningful way for this reason i will only use the first person perspective as a stylistic device for interesting passages or sometimes a chapter. I (the main character) am Surgrim 22 years old and have led a normal life so far. I was rather bad in school and have an education as an IT specialist. Normally I sit at home at the computer and play whatever falls into my hands. But I let my grandma talk me into taking a real vacation on this fateful day. This is the first time I write a story and let other people read it I look forward to any helpful comments. Furthermore, English is not my native language and it may happen that my choice of words is rather strange. Again, please point this out to me so that I can learn and improve. In conclusion, I am writing this story in addition to my full-time job and it will happen that there are sometimes a few weeks no new chapters, but I hope that this is rather the exception. Edit: Vol.1 with 43 chapters is done. Happy reading

In a quiet village, a young man named Arihant begins to question the life everyone else accepts without doubt. While people around him chase money, status, and comfort, Arihant feels a strange emptiness inside. He wonders: Is life only about being born, working, and dying? Or is there a deeper purpose hidden within human existence? His search for answers leads him to a mysterious old man in an abandoned library. Through deep conversations and life-changing experiences, Arihant discovers the ancient teachings of Jainism, a path that speaks of the soul, karma, and the possibility of ultimate liberation. But the journey is far from easy. Arihant must face powerful inner enemies—anger, ego, attachment, and fear. He must balance family responsibilities, social expectations, and his growing desire to understand the truth of life. Each choice he makes shapes his soul and determines the direction of his destiny. As he walks this difficult path, Arihant slowly learns about compassion, discipline, and the profound principle of non-violence. Step by step, he moves toward the spiritual transformation described in Jain philosophy—the state of Arihant, and ultimately the liberated existence of a Siddha. Arihant – A Journey to Become Siddh is not just a story. It is a philosophical adventure into the human mind, a struggle between worldly life and spiritual truth, and a powerful exploration of what it truly means to be free. This novel invites readers to ask the same question Arihant once asked under the silent night sky: If the greatest victory is over oneself… are we brave enough to fight that battle?
