A Feast of Hands

…Fuck my life… The thought was the first thing to stroke into Ryckel's mind. He woke with a scream that died in his throat. Frantically breathing in and out, only to feel the warmth and dampness at him. Like he was breathing onto something too close. Not open air. Something was wrong. He knew this familiar feeling. He was wearing a gas mask. He coughed until every fiber in his body begged him to stop. He wasn't on a bed or anywhere close to the ground. Gravity was the first thing Ryckel felt, and it was a lie. It tugged at his worn out shoes, trying to drag him into the abyss, but his body stayed anchored by a sickening, internal tension. He opened his eyes and saw only red. The Bleeding Hour. The mist was a thick crimson veil on his surroundings. How did it get to the Red Dark?! Wondering, he then looked down. He saw more red, with not a ground in sight. His body slowly swayed, the wind howling but Ryckel wasn't falling. He was held by thick, oily black ropes that punched clean through his thighs and ribs. H-How… How was I even still alive? Ryckel questioned but never complained. Oddly enough, it didn't hurt like it should. Only feeling a fading dull sting. How did all of this happen?! ------ Shout out to @scholarofyore0 for helping me out with the power system, really appreciate it. Also my release schedule is 2 chapters every weekday and just 1 chapter every weekend Do note, the prose style in my work reflect the POV of the chapter and yes, there would be POVs apart from Ryckel's. The prose style(s) would still be easy to read and understand. Like Ryckel's POV is more art based because he's actually an artist. The auxiliary chapter isn't also compulsory. If you like an aux chap that details the world and everything then it's for you. But if you don't, then you can just read the story itself. Info and all that would still be revealed naturally. Do be warned though, the aux chap is written and structured in a way that many writers on here don't normally do...

KRONOS MAW: RISE OF THE TEMPORAL ANCHOR

Time is not on his side. It's inside him. Nineteen year old Alex Wilder has spent his whole life feeling like he's watching the world through glass — present but untouched, handsome but invisible, alive but completely indifferent. In the crowded hallways of New Lagos High he is nobody. A closed door. A boy too guarded to let the world in and too smart to pretend that doesn't cost him something. Then one rainy evening in the forgotten sub-levels of Chronicle Hall, everything changes. A four hundred year old secret chooses him. A pulse that isn't his own heartbeat takes up residence in his chest. And somewhere at the edge of the universe, something ancient and hungry stirs — a being who was once the greatest guardian of time and is now its most terrifying enemy — and starts moving toward New Lagos. His name is Kronos Maw. He doesn't want to rule time. He wants to unmake it. But Kronos Maw is not the worst thing out there. Before the universe had a name. Before time had a direction. Before the first star burned its first light into the darkness — there was the Chrono Void. A hunger that doesn't roar or rage or announce itself. It simply waits at the edge of everything, patient and absolute, whispering one promise to every crack in reality it finds. Entropy. Silence. Nothingness. For centuries the Temporal Lattice has kept it locked away. But the Lattice is fracturing. And every Rift pulse Kronos Maw unleashes loosens another thread. Every world he destroys opens another crack. He believes he is using the Void as a weapon. He doesn't understand that the Void is using him. Across the multiverse others are stirring. A wind-singer on a floating citadel of crystal spires whose songs travel through cracks in reality. A stone-skinned guardian on a desert world where sand itself is frozen in time. Ancient Weavers watching from a pocket dimension outside of time entirely. Warriors from rift-scarred worlds carrying powers forged from broken timelines. All of them feeling the same fractures. All of them sending the same desperate signal. Hold the line. On Earth Alex's only allies are a sharp-eyed tech genius with fourteen pages of notes, a former bully with a blade forged from broken time, and a four hundred year old guardian who has been waiting specifically for him. Together they are the first defense between New Lagos and oblivion. Between Earth and the unraveling of everything. Two threats. One is coming for him. The other is coming for everything. Some legacies skip generations. Some wait four hundred years. Alex's just arrived. And the question isn't whether he's ready. The question is whether ready even matters anymore. The lattice is fracturing. The tyrant is coming. The Void is whispering. And a boy from New Lagos is all that stands between existence and the hungry silence at the edge of time. The war for time itself begins here. Time is not on his side. It's inside him. Nineteen year old Alex Wilder has spent his whole life feeling like he's watching the world through glass — present but untouched, handsome but invisible, alive but completely indifferent. In the crowded hallways of New Lagos High he is nobody. A closed door. A boy too guarded to let the world in and too smart to pretend that doesn't cost him something.

Path of Arcana

So... I died. Again. I mean, at this point, I'm pretty sure Lady Death has it out for me personally. First time? Normal kid, normal death, nothing exciting. Second time? Wizard fighting Death Eaters, got hit with Voldemort's killing curse, very dramatic, 10/10 would not recommend. Third time's the charm, right? Except now I'm a sixteen-year-old New Yorker living in the MCU—the motherfucking Marvel Cinematic Universe. Yeah. That MCU. The one where aliens invade, robots try to exterminate humanity, and a purple space tyrant eventually snaps half of all life out of existence. No pressure or anything. I just have to : - Craft a functional wand (kind of a must-have for every wizard, and Amazon is surprisingly unhelpful) - Keep my magic hidden from S.H.I.E.L.D. - Definitely stay off Hydra's radar - Maybe prevent the apocalypse? If I have time? - Survive high school (honestly might be harder than the apocalypse) So yeah, if you want to follow me on this absolutely ridiculous adventure of trying not to die (again) in a universe that's actively trying to kill everyone, come along. It's gonna be a wild ride. ------------------------------ Hey guys, I'm Aurelius D. Black, your author, and welcome to Path of Arcana (or How to Survive and Maybe Craft Hogwarts in Another World). This is an MTL novel I read years ago but dropped because the translation was... rough, to put it mildly. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and rewrite it myself. Here's the result. I don't own Marvel or Harry Potter—I'm not rich enough for Disney or Warner Bros. to come after me, so please don't sue. This is purely a fan project. If you want to support my work, you can also find me on Patreon : patreon.com/AureliusDBlack There will be around 10 to 15 chapters in advance. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the ride! Quick note: English isn't my first language, so please bear with me if there are occasional grammar or spelling errors. I'm doing my best to improve with each chapter, and constructive feedback is always welcome!

I Became a Kindergarten Teacher for Monster Babies!

She applied for a simple teaching job but she ended up raising a classroom full of supernatural toddlers and accidentally becoming the Demon Lord’s obsession. -`♡´- Struggling to pay rent and drowning in rejection emails, Alina Hart, 24, is desperate for a stable job. When she stumbles across a strange flyer offering a "live-in teaching position at a private academy," she signs the contract without reading the fine print. Big mistake.

That’s how we play catch!” -`♡´- Alina: “Luna, you can’t bite people just because they sit next to me.” Luna (growling): “He was breathing near you. That’s MY air!” Alina: “…Please don’t make this a crime scene.” -`♡´- Sable (whispering from her shadow): “I bit the crayon... and it betrayed me.” Alina: “Sable… crayons are not food.” Sable: “…Then why are they so colorful?” -`♡´- Vlad Jr.: “Miss Alina, I have written my will.” Alina: “You’re four.” Vlad Jr.: “And yet, I have already loved and lost.” Alina: “…You lost a cookie.” •••• She wanted a quiet job with crayons and nap time. What she got was magical chaos, clingy monster cubs, and a demon principal who doesn’t understand why her smile affects him more than any weapon ever has...

Midnight Heiress: Bound by Blood and Moonlight

Midnight Heiress: Bound by Blood and Moonlight A vampire heiress in hiding. A human she was never meant to love. And a fate written in blood and moonlight. Midnight Ashton lives a life built on control. As the composed and powerful head of a rising company in Thailand, she is admired for her authority, feared for her precision, and known for her calm distance from the world. To everyone else, she is human—brilliant, untouchable, and alone. But Midnight carries a truth buried in blood. She is the last heir to a fallen vampire throne, hiding from the uncle who murdered her parents and stole her birthright. Bound by secrecy and survival, Midnight suppresses her true nature, believing that power kept hidden is power that can still protect. Then she meets Amara—a warm, ordinary woman whose presence unsettles everything Midnight has built. Drawn together by fate and an unexplainable pull, their bond deepens into a love that feels older than memory itself. As Midnight struggles to keep her secrets, her powers begin to awaken on their own—responding not to danger, but to recognition. A living shield moves without command. Wind and earth obey her emotions. And somewhere unseen, an ancient guardian watches over them both. As Morvane, the ruthless vampire king, closes in—obsessed with Midnight’s defiance and intrigued by the invisible force protecting her—the balance begins to fracture. Midnight’s power evolves. Her shield listens. Her blood remembers. And Amara begins to notice the impossible. Between love and truth, protection and honesty, Midnight faces an inevitable choice: to continue hiding behind her armor… or to risk everything by revealing who she truly is. Because some destinies cannot remain hidden. And when blood, moonlight, and love align— fate finally looks back.
