In a universe where gods walk among mortals and legends rewrite the fate of worlds, a nameless soul awakens — not as a hero, not as a villain, but as an extra. A background character destined to be forgotten in the chaos of titans like Superman, Thor, Darkseid, and the Celestials. But fate has other plans. Reborn into a merged world where the DC and Marvel universes collide — with timelines fractured, multiverses bleeding into each other, and cosmic beings warring for dominion — the protagonist discovers a hidden truth: the role of the “extra” is merely a mask. Beneath it lies a being chosen by the Balance Protocol, an ancient system created before even the One Above All and The Presence. Given a mysterious power that adapts and evolves by observing gods, monsters, and heroes alike, the protagonist embarks on a journey to rise through the cosmic hierarchy. From the streets of Gotham to the battlefields of Asgard, from the shadows of Apokolips to the halls of the Watchers, every step forward rewrites destiny. He doesn’t seek to become a god. He seeks to surpass them. And in a world where being extraordinary is not enough, the one who was once an extra… will become the one true threat the gods never saw coming.

Easy. Normal. Hard. Unreal. One morning, time stops, and a voice calling itself the Enigma asks every human on Earth to choose a difficulty. The harder the setting, the greater the reward, and the lower the odds of coming back alive. Jason Keller, an ordinary engineering student, chooses Normal. The Enigma refuses. For him, there is only one setting: Calamity. "You must endure the calamity to become the calamity." Mission after mission, the Enigma throws Jason into other worlds and into trials no one was ever meant to survive: an endless ocean, intergalactic warships, the basement of an eldritch horror. Each one takes something from him. Each one leaves something behind: a skill, a scar, a little less of the student he used to be. His first trial is a slow-burn battle against solitude and despair. The next will be something else entirely, and so will the one after that. Every calamity presses him a little further into shape, until he fits the perfect mold the Enigma has made for him. The other difficulties have an end. His doesn't seem to.

In a world where unseen demons dwell within human hearts, quietly spreading corruption and discord, a boy named Elham struggles with a simple truth, he is nothing. He has no strength, no skill, no place in a society that values contribution above all. As whispers of darkness spread through his village, Elham awakens a power unlike any other. Elham is sixteen when he leaves the only village he has ever known, carrying a warmth in his chest he cannot explain, a staff that belonged to a man that was his father, and a commission from an archangel that lingers like a warning: you will fail, and you will stand again, go and find the seven. Traveling with Asher, a quiet swordsman whose strength feels heavier than it should, Elham enters a world where truth is never whole and something unseen moves beneath every decision.

He can only place his hopes on Talismans, shoring up his foundation step by step and forging ahead.

Luo Qiu became the boss of a ‘club’ by chance. It was a weird club that sold strange items, assisted by a servant girl with 300 years of work experience. Countless people with dreams, hopes and ambitions came to the club, exchanging everything precious they owned just to fulfill their desires. They would offer their lifespan, items, and even their soul. Each successful trade would increase Luo Qiu’s lifespan by a little. “Tribute successful, your lifespan has increased by 99 years.” Thus, Luo Qiu began his endless life as the club’s boss.

After many years, he return back to his home country, Canada. He started his life as a normal student. But fate had different plans. He swore to protect his loved ones to matter the cost. This is the story of a boy named Ethan

A young man, weighed down by silence and the ache of feeling unseen, sits alone on what he believes will be his final night. The world outside moves on, indifferent but in the stillness of his room, a quiet whisper stirs. Not of despair, but of words. Words that have waited too long to be heard. He picks up his notebook one last time not to say goodbye, but to begin. What starts as a farewell becomes something else entirely this story is a raw and tender record of loneliness, longing, and the fragile, flickering wish to matter. With each sentence, he reaches not for an ending, but for a witness. A connection. Maybe even a reason. He doesn’t promise healing. He doesn’t pretend the pain is gone. But if there’s even the smallest chance that being alive could still hold something meaningful if someone, somewhere, might read his truth and feel less alone too then he’ll try. Not perfectly, not bravely, but honestly. And with that honesty, he takes his first trembling step back toward the light. Warning:Emotional Distress,Suicidal, Mental Confusion

People always say, control your emotions, don’t be weak, don’t do this, don’t do that—but you know what? F*ck all that. This story isn’t about perfection or pretending to be strong—it’s about being real. The characters in this world don’t have all the answers; they stumble, they fight, they break, and still, they keep moving. Just like us. I want the readers to feel that—every joy, every heartbreak, every spark of anger and desire. I want you to walk beside them through the Land of Eirs, to bleed when they bleed, to rise when they rise. Because this isn’t just their story—it’s a reminder that no matter how heavy life gets, we keep moving. Always.

Solaris Gunther was an orphaned kid going to school; his life was rough but safe, structured even, perhaps even a little bit boring. One day, a small divergence from his usual path led him into a life of hunting demons, as well as the underbelly of society that is holding it all together.  Just after being brought into the world of hunting demons, Solaris is then faced with an even worse situation.  All he has are questions; things he never thought were real are now his enemies, his once structured life now could be cut short at any moment, and to top it all off, there is a being of incredible power living inside of his very being.  What is Extramicy? Are the gods real? What are the demons? Who is the being known as Singulus? Will he die a human, or live long enough to become something entirely different?  Only time will tell.

This was the story of the Wannabe Webnovelist Team (aka WW) who slaved over writing for five years and did not receive a single reader, only to discover that the person responsible for the final edit and publishing in the Wannabe Webnovelist writing team never actually published anything. He had only uploaded everything to the drafts. Sit back and relax (or not) as you try to figure out which character has written which paragraph or chapter. Not to mention working out how many people are actually in this team - this may fluctuate. The WW team's rules in this novel are that once a chapter has been published, no one in the team can edit it. (NB: all the characters in this work are fictional and while any resemblance to real life people are not entirely coincidental - no insults are meant. This is a completely tongue in cheek, rubbish piece of nothing. Yes, you read that right. If you find this as nonsensical as the author(s), then 'high five!' You are on the right page.) Also, has this story really been discontinued? Wait and see... because if it really has been discontinued, we hope the readers enjoy being left hanging on the cliff edge - or just hanging, cos there's nothing wrong with just hanging about. Addit Oct 2023: WW is on a long break. Who knows if they'll ever get back together or come back (in fact, I doubt they will ever return - I think they've given up). Therefore, you will receive random short stories instead. This is now truly discontinuous nonsense. Enjoy. If you don't like one story, you can now switch to a different one via the contents page. Yay.

Every evening, I retreat to my corner of the café, a place where the world seems to pause, as I get absorbed in my world of literature and fiction. But tonight, the rain brought more than just the usual tranquility. As I sit with my book and coffee, a new presence shifts the silence. She enters, and with her, an unspoken conversation begins.

In a world eerily similar to our own, a mysterious phenomenon known as the "Ratio Phenomenal" has silently reshaped society over the past fifteen years. Beginning around the age of 13, individuals in this reality occasionally undergo a transformation called "Emergence," where a male begins to transform into a female, eventually becoming permanent. This process is reminiscent of clownfish changing sex in response to environmental cues—a biological adaptation to preserve an elusive, yet vital, balance. The global and Japanese-specific cases of Emergence have created a society grappling with uncertainty, as authorities scramble to understand and manage this inexplicable phenomenon. Despite ongoing research, there remains no cure, and the phenomenon is non-infectious—yet its impact on society is profound. Most of the world chooses to ignore the unsettling truth, focusing instead on daily life, friendships, school, and personal struggles. Our story centers on a young protagonist—whose appearance is notably feminine—navigating the complexities of adolescence in a society that refuses to fully accept or understand the Ratio Phenomenal. As the narrative unfolds, the novel explores themes of identity, acceptance, and the quiet resilience of youth amid an ongoing, mysterious global crisis. Through deep emotional storytelling and realistic dialogue, the story delves into the personal and societal implications of a world forever altered by an enigmatic biological phenomenon.
