He spent three years killing people for money. Now his job is making sure nobody kills the girl dressed as a cat goddess. In the near future, mega-corporations have discovered that cosplayers are worth more than celebrities. The top performers live like idols — private jets, penthouse suites, merchandise deals worth more than small nations' GDPs. They also attract obsessive fans, corporate espionage, and occasionally, people with guns. Kai Reuben, 21, is the most capable person in any room he walks into and the most uncomfortable. Three years as a mercenary left him fluent in threat assessment, efficient in a fight, and completely unequipped for civilian life. Peacetime is loud. People's emotions are data he doesn't know how to file. He has constructed a pleasant face for public use and it has been stuck there ever since. He retired eight months ago because the world got too peaceful and his reputation got too large — other mercenaries couldn't beat him, so they started targeting the people near him instead. He walked away before anyone else got hurt. He has been trying to figure out what to do with himself ever since. He does not figure this out at a cosplay convention on a Saturday afternoon. What he does instead is deflect a bullet with a combat knife in front of thirty thousand live viewers, neutralise three armed assailants, critique the venue's west walkway security to the responding officers, and retrieve his cold brew. The clip hits one million views before midnight. The cosplay internet decides he's the most committed method actor they've ever seen. NovaCorp's Director Chantal decides something more accurate and makes a call. By Sunday morning, Kai Reuben has a new job he didn't ask for, a contract he probably should have read more carefully, and a problem he has absolutely no protocol for. PIXEL GUARD is a light novel in the action romantic comedy tradition — overpowered protagonist, genuine emotional stakes, and a harem that operates less like a competition and more like a slowly assembling disaster that Kai is professionally equipped to survive and personally entirely unprepared for. The action is real. The comedy is real. The feelings, which Kai has filed under pending further classification and fully intends to address at a later date, are very real. He is going to have to stop moving toward the threat eventually. He is not there yet.

Ethan Ward never expected to die on a rainy roadside, bleeding out after shielding a terrified mother and her little girl from a knife-wielding killer. His final memory was of sirens in the distance… and the warm, grateful grip of the child he saved. Then he opened his eyes in another world. A world he recognized instantly the brutal fantasy game he once played, filled with monsters, towers, dungeons, and gods. Except he wasn’t reborn as a hero, or a warrior, or even a villager. He was reborn as a teacher. A normal, powerless teacher… …with only one “gift” from the gods: A Divine Aura. A terrifying, overwhelming presence that makes even seasoned warriors tremble. No strength. No skills. No combat talent. Only aura. To survive, Ethan hides the truth. The world thinks he is an ancient monster in human skin, a living calamity disguised as a gentle instructor. Even the strongest knights bow their heads around him. And Ethan? He just wants a quiet, peaceful life. But peace is impossible. Because the aura that protects him also attracts danger—cultists, divine beasts, forgotten spirits, and the eyes of gods. And when he discovers a forbidden grimoire that teaches him to forge ghosts from sacrificed souls, Ethan is forced to walk a path he never wanted: A path of secrets. A path of survival. A path of becoming what the world already believes him to be. A legend. A threat. A myth. A teacher whose presence alone shakes kingdoms.

[WARNING: This book contains adult content.] In a world where people awaken legendary beings upon turning 18— dragons capable of destroying mountains, phoenixes that set the skies ablaze, divine beasts that alter reality— Alex Carter awakened… Death. A small skeletal figure. A toy scythe. F-rank. Expelled from Celestial Academy and turned into the kingdom's laughingstock, his destiny seemed sealed. But ranks can lie. What Alex summoned was not a weak creature… but a sealed fragment of the true Grim Reaper—an existence so terrifying that even the gods joined forces to imprison it a thousand years ago. Seven fragments. Seven bearers. Seven paths to the end. While others train their companions… Alex can do the impossible. Evolve Death itself. Every corpse becomes a soldier. Every battlefield, his domain. Every soul… power. And as more fragments awaken— the world will understand, too late that what they scorned… was the beginning of something far worse than death.

“Doing the wrong thing for the right reason… never ends well for anyone.” Seven great races ruled the continent of Eldarion. Humans weren’t among them. To the world, mankind was nothing more than background noise, as insignificant as a breath of air, as laughable as a failed joke of creation. A race with no promise. No power. No future. Tyler was born into that world—a world where every “hero of humanity” was fated to fall before they could rise. So he abandoned the path of heroes entirely. He chose the road stained in shadows. He chose the power no sane soul would touch. He chose to become a demon— not for glory, but for survival. His purpose was simple: Ascend as the Demon King. Stand as a monstrous shield when the true invaders finally tear into their continent. And he succeeded. He rose higher, darker, and stronger than any being before him. But power has a price. A price he only understood when it was far too late. For in climbing toward salvation, He became the very abomination he once swore to destroy— The Desecrator. And the world whispered: “There is no lesser or greater evil. There is only evil.” Yet a more profound truth lingered in the dark: “Because sometimes, only one Evil can devour another.” *** Discord - https://discord.gg/4xbt5Nwrtn *** #Yandere #ComplexCharacters #NoHarem #Dark #RareBloodline #Magic #Slowburn #FatedLove #Demons #Dragons #Otherworlders #RunicSorcery #Evil-FL

Not all roads lead home. Some end in the abyss. One day, you just want to return home after work. A door appears, without reason. One step… and your mind shatters. The body of a dying noble—Beltrán Leonhard—receives what he never asked for: foreign memories, unfamiliar emotions, echoes of a world that never existed in his books. But this is not a rebirth. It is a curse. A world consumed by war and ruled by masks, where conspiracies are fears beyond comprehension. Shadows do more than hide secrets: they speak, lie, poison, and above all… wait. Is Beltrán anything more than an unfortunate noble… or merely another piece in an ancient game? The knowledge he has inherited is not a gift. It is a key… to something that should never have been unlocked.

PS: THIS IS NOT A SYSTEM BOOK Camilla Hudson was the world’s most sought-after assassin, known only as "The Black Widow." After years of bloodshed, hunting down corrupt politicians, she finally collected her final paycheck, laid down her sniper and prepared for a peaceful retirement of luxury and... WebNovels. But when her favorite story is left on a brutal cliffhanger, Camilla does what any frustrated reader would do: she trashes the author in the comments. "I could do a better job than this!" The Universe took her literally. Transmigrated into the body of the pathetic, love-crazed Lady Camilla, the female lead who just attempted suicide over a divorce. To return to her world, she must give the book an ending and mark it completed. Her plan? Sign the papers, take the money, and leave or she would be stuck inside the story forever. However, she’s been granted a terrifying new perk—The Cursed Tongue. Every "bad" word she utters becomes a reality. But there’s a secret perk she doesn't know about: Lord Damon can hear every single one of her murderous, sarcastic thoughts. The General, who once overlooked his clingy wife, is now terrified, intrigued, and utterly obsessed with the "new" Camilla. As she tries to sprint toward a "Happily Ever After" (and a quick exit), the General suddenly tears up the divorce papers. "You want to leave, wife? Over my dead body." Can Camilla write her own ending when the Male Lead refuses to follow the script?
