Naruto: A Whole New World The Shinobi World is not a place of heroes. It is a world where children are forged into weapons, loyalty is measured by usefulness, and every life has a price. Murakami knows this better than most. Reborn with the memories of another life, he possesses no bloodline, no legendary clan, no destined master, and no hidden power waiting to awaken. His only advantage is a mind that refuses to accept anything at face value. While others learn techniques, he studies the principles behind them. While others chase power, he searches for the laws that govern it. To Murakami, chakra is not a miracle. It is a system. And every system can be understood, refined... and transcended. As war looms over the Five Great Nations and monsters walk the earth in the form of tailed beasts, one question will shape his journey: What lies beyond the limits of chakra? Sometimes, the greatest revolution isn't born from overwhelming strength. It's born from understanding. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Release Schedule Regular Chapters Monday Wednesday Friday Weekend Bonus Chapters Want an extra chapter on the weekend?

Arthur Moreau disappeared during a live broadcast. No warning. No transition. No last words. One moment he was finishing a world event in front of fifty thousand viewers. The next, he was gone — and what arrived somewhere else was Gepetto: his character, his creation, the identity he had spent years building inside a game that no longer contained him. The world that received him has existed through dozens of eras. Civilizations rose and collapsed long before humanity had a word for either. What walks its roads now — human and elf and dragon and beast-kind and peoples whose names don't translate — are the living residue of everything that already happened here. The gods who shaped the early eras did not all survive them. The world doesn't advertise how much of it is arrangement of ruins. Elysion is a Republic in the way that a cracked foundation is still a building. Beneath the gas lamps and the elevated rails, the actual structure is simpler: those with enough weight act as though permission doesn't apply to them. The working class breathes chemical residue and calls it employment. There is no king. There are only consequences. The Church of the Solar God holds it together, which is not a metaphor. The Solar God is not a symbol. He walks. He acts. He has reasons of his own. Nine others arrived the way Gepetto arrived — carrying what they built inside the game, now operating in a world where what they touch does not reset. They are not heroes. They are ten people who understood a system well enough to reach its limits, placed inside a reality where the limits are elsewhere and the other Players have their own intentions. Gepetto does not try to fight it. He studies it. While others assert themselves through force or faith or the assumption that visibility equals strength, he builds something quieter. A structure: distributed, patient, invisible until it is not. The story that begins with one man in one city does not stay there. The skills are real now. The strings are real. And what they touch does not reset. Because the puppeteer pulls the strings. But in a world this old, someone is always watching. AUTHOR'S NOTE: House of Puppets is not a power fantasy. It's slow by design — the kind that accumulates, not the kind that stalls. The story starts small and expands aggressively. The pacing shifts across volumes. It will surprise you in directions you didn't see coming. Tonal influences: Lord of Mysteries, Reverend Insanity, the Soulsborne tradition, Dostoevsky. Not references — register. I'm a reader who started this by studying what great work does and trying to do that. The story is strange and volatile partly because of that, and I think that's also why some of it works. The ambition is real. The reading will tell you if it got there. [This work is currently on hiatus. I'm not sure when I'll be back, but I haven't abandoned it (at least not forever!). I promise to come back and continue the story later on.]

Anning is an ordinary girl, living quietly in her own world (which means an introvert), but who would've thought that her peacefulness will not last longer than expected. Anning didn't know what awaited her, but she did know one thing - 'She' won't leave her side, and is her only exception - Baizhi, a soft girl with an even softer temperament. Just the name of that person was enough to turn her head. But are the things really going to be like that when she will got to know that Anning gained an unrequited love from someone else too - Sizi, a sharp beauty pretending to be a blunt one. Was it really an unrequited, unwanted love, or something deeper? In the new world, she not only has to reach her only unwanted goal, but also has to bear the most painful feeling of the world too - betrayal. Not only she but the person closest to her had to also feel the misery and partake in every adventure even if she don't want to. The betrayal given by someone this much close to her is so much painful that she found the gift of death much more appetizing, specially when the one she hated and had hurt her in the most possible way was her only amendment, but heavens didn't let her do that too. She can't because of the shackles. Because someone wouldn't let her. Yes, if there was someone who wouldn't let her live then there was also someone who will make her live even on their ashes. Will Anning be okay, if she got to know that the person whom she despised, was the person actually fated for her, the one who accompanied her in every tryst of her life, including death itself ? Things are not the same as it looks on the surface. So many people wearing different facades, having the most insidious secrets. The slowburn was really infectious. This side, Anning was fighting with her own feelings, and on the other, two professors were also shackled by their own reasons. Professor Lin (Lin Huang) and professor Qing (Qing Lan), have their own dynamics. The love between them is not so easy, because the unspeakable secrets were screaming in their heads, trying to tell them that they don't belong to each other. But making two persons who shares same souls part each other really that easy? Are really Anning and Baizhi fated for each other? Or there is some secret Baizhi is hiding? And what about Sizi, whom even if Anning doesn't wants to, finds an unexplainable comfort with? Definitely not the friendship type of comfort, but something deeper and more darker. Like some past life connection? Would it really be a happy ending ? To know more let's dig into the queersome story, and find out what's the real truth. Because the things are not really like they are. This is my first book, so please guide me further in this journey of novels and sit in your seat tightly or lie on your bed to just enjoy. #gl #girllove #yuri #blsidecouple #lgbtq #glsidecouple #mystery Thank you so much......

May as well go all in…”

"Dragons and their spawn rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _____ Power comes from the beast you tame. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, chimeras, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, troll dogs(not doge) or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option... His aging parents sold everything for his "failed" chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? Turns out they start small too. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a darker story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun and taming expectations. _______ We will use the same Discord from my first book, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 _______ Silly tags that seem to matter a lot to some readers: No Yaoi, No Yuri, Possibly Harem (Vote! I can write either, and in any case, there will be multiple girls. The only difference is whether he chooses one in the end or goes the "liberal" route.... democracy is yours!), No NTR.

Mark did not survive the corporate world by being a genius. He survived by copying one. Whenever his logistics firm faced an impossible deficit, Mark asked himself one question: What would Reine Asakura do in this kind of situation? Reine was the cold, calculating, flawlessly logical protagonist of his favorite light novel, "Welcome to the High School of Meritocracy." Mark used her fictional strategies to climb the corporate ladder in the real world by simulating her cold, analytical thought process. Then, a twelve-ton truck suffered a brake failure, and Mark’s real world ended. He wakes up inside the biological vessel of Kenji, a painfully average, 160-centimeter-tall background character. He is sitting in a pristine white classroom. The girl sitting at the desk next to him has flat, dark reddish-brown hair, piercing amber eyes, and a perfectly neutral expression. It is Reine Asakura. He is trapped inside the novel. This academy does not operate on friendship or standard grades. It operates on a brutal "Seat Economy." Classes fight in psychological Special Exams to earn currency. That currency is used to buy the physical seats of students in rival classes. Once your seat is bought, you pay monthly rent to the enemy. If you default, you are expelled. It is a system of financial hostage-taking and mutual assured destruction. Kenji does not want to be her ally. In his previous life, he owed his entire corporate success to Reine's way of genius thinking. He was imitating her mind's cognitive process. Now, standing next to his idol, he feels the ultimate drive of a fanatic. Just as a basketball player dreams of playing a serious, limit-testing game against their ultimate idol, Kenji wants to step onto the court against Reine. He wants to prove he can dismantle the flawless genius mind that built his own success in his previous life. Kenji has one advantage: he knows the entire three-year timeline of the novel. But he also knows a mathematical truth. Meta-knowledge is not enough to defeat the super-genius, Reine Asakura, in a fair fight. If Reine detects that he can predict the future, her genius mind will adapt, and she will crush him. Kenji makes a calculated decision. He cannot fight her immediately because they are assigned to the same class. He knows her exact script: Reine will operate in the shadows for two years, secretly pulling the strings to elevate their defective Class D to the top-ranking Class A. Once she succeeds, she will transfer to an enemy class in Year Three simply to seek a real challenge. That is Kenji's strict deadline. He has exactly 24 months to gather the massive currency required to execute his own transfer to a third, opposing class. While Reine builds her empire, Kenji plays the perfect background character. He acts like an idiot. He complains about trivial things. He tricks Reine into categorizing him as harmless biological noise, even provoking her into a spontaneous, absurd bet: If he ever defeats her in a battle of wits, she has to go on a date with him. She agrees, calculating the probability of his victory at zero. She is wrong. While Reine manipulates the school from the shadows, Kenji uses his future knowledge to quietly exploit the economy's blind spots. He builds an untraceable dark pool of capital right under her nose. Then, the first day of Year Three arrives. Former Class D became Class A. Reine transfer to other class. Kenji cashes in his hidden funds, executes a hostile class transfer, and shatters his camouflage. The two-year observation phase is over. Reine’s data on foolish Kenji become suddenly obsolete. The war between a flawless super genius and a man holding the knowledge of the future has begun. #shadowmastermind #manipulation #psychological #strategy #tactic #battleofwits #pretendingtobeweak #hiddenabilities #calculation #highschool #schoollife #metaknowledge #chess #cote #cunning #ruthless #scheme #underdog #hierarchy #meritocracy #cold

Apparently, I had transmigrated into the world of "Hunter Odyssey", a trashy modern fantasy novel I read during my last military deployment. Worse? I was not the protagonist. I was Draven Mordis, a disposable orphan extra captured by a dark cult, destined to be castrated and turned into a brainwashed, lobotomized pawn in the prologue. Meanwhile, the actual "Hero" of this world, Neville Hennesy, is a naive, self-righteous idiot. I am a Commander. I do not play games. War is about efficiency, survival, and eliminating threats permanently. Just as the cultist's blade descends to claim my future, a translucent blue screen shatters the darkness.

Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless.

She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! .......................................................

Zephyr spent his entire life trying his hardest, only to be told that he was worthless. To his own family, he was nothing more than an embarrassment—a useless failure, a disgrace they would rather hide from the world than acknowledge as their own. With his eyes gone, he had long since accepted that this was all his life would ever be. But everything changed when he awakened as an SSS-Rank Esper and met Lucien O'Connell. The man who became his salvation. But Lucien knew something Zephyr didn't.

"I'm a regressor" Adriel said to his brother after years of contemplation the heavy weight now lifting off his shoulders. He looked at his brother in response he was expecting more of a shock expression instead of a 'Are you done?' Look but this is alright too.
