Sherlock Cavendish, who had just crossed into the world of Harry Potter, who did not have a golden finger and did not inherit the memory of the original owner, looked at the Hogwarts letter of appointment in his hand, and pouted. “Just a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.” Note- Other people have posted this before but never completely. I intend to post all chapters in this fic. I will try to edit it as well as I can and will also use ai for checking grammar. I am by no means a professional and am just doing this for fun. I am basically also just reading along so you may find some criticisms of mine written like (TN:) or (TL:). Mtl: https://www.wuxiaspot.com/novel/just-a-defense-against-the-dark-arts-professor.html

He doesn’t start in East Blue—he starts on Laugh Tale. Roger laughs at the bold kid who shouts he’ll turn the world upside down… then realizes he just took another monster aboard. Name: Aos. Raw strength beyond giant standards. Innate awakened Observation. Rapid grasp of armament wrapping. Black long gun across his back; seastone rounds along his belt. He dissects: haki forms, gun paths, sword lines, body frames. High EQ gets him accepted; relentless grinding keeps him rising. With Shanks and Buggy he forges lifelong rivalry—never a background follower. Combat tags in play: Observation kill shots Advanced Armament bind Seastone round control “Don’t Move” style ability lock targeting fruit users No harem. No female lead. Not a Straw Hat tag‑along line. Much later, on a calm sea day, the Going Merry meets an uninvited figure. A black gun. A living legend. “Want to know what One Piece is? I can tell you.”

The world is at war… and power is everything. When hidden humans with abilities finally step forward, the balance begins to shift. Then, peace came...but Erin, she didn't want peace. To everyone else, she’s perfect. Beautiful. Untouchable. Living a life others envy, with powers that placed her at the top. But the truth? She’s already lost everything and was too weak to get what she truly wanted. Until she got her hands on something that wasn’t meant for her, that changed everything. [System Activated] “It is time to feed!” “You must drink human blood within 24 hours” “Your HP will continue to decrease…” Erin had become something she was never meant to become a vampire, but just maybe she could use this to get everything she truly wanted. **** What if instead of Quinn Talen being the main protagonist, Erin also shared that role. What if Peter became a magic subclass and Layla became an undead? What if Fex was able to join the military school sooner, but Vorden was stuck on his family's island? What if Logan stayed the same despite everyone else swapping roles? A new universe a new telling of the story causing a series of events to get changed, and for character arcs to go into different directions. To think that it all started because Quinn tried to make an investment.

Soren Valmere, unawakened and treated as family garbage, is forced into an arranged marriage with Ethea Morvain, the once-legendary Ice Empress now completely paralyzed after a catastrophic Gate incident. Both families exile them to a modest house in a working-class neighborhood, washing their hands of two "problems" they no longer want to deal with. But on their wedding night, Soren awakens a hidden power: the Investment Authority. Whatever he invests in Ethea—time, money, care, emotion—returns to him amplified by 10,000 times when she achieves breakthroughs. Buy her medicine with his last credits? Receive a hundred million in return. Spend sleepless nights helping her move a single finger? Gain decades of martial experience instantly. Risk his life to save hers? Unlock abilities that shatter the heavens. As he pours everything into the wife everyone abandoned, Ethea slowly transforms from a broken doll into something that surpasses even her legendary past. And Soren? The "worthless" unawakened trash becomes the most dangerous investor the world has ever seen. Their families wanted to forget them. The world dismissed them as failures. They're about to learn that the greatest returns come from investing in someone everyone else deemed worthless. "You threw us away. Now watch us rise." _______ _____ _ Author's Note: Hey everyone!

When the Crown Falls, the Kingdom Burns. "They built an empire on righteousness. Their enemies will burn it to the ground. But they forgot one thing — the youngest Miller doesn't play by anyone's rules."

He watched six Harry Potter films in a life he no longer has. Then he woke up in it. He knows who dies. He knows who betrays. He knows the ending. None of that stopped him from falling in love with all of it. A boy with a crowbar, a dead man's foreknowledge, and absolutely no intention of following the script. The wizarding world has faced Dark Lords, basilisks, and prophecies. It has never faced Kevin Croft. Go read it. You won't sleep.

In a world where brilliance is engineered and ambition is sharpened like steel, four elite students from Casa de Imperium University stand at the peak of academic excellence. The university is no ordinary institution—it is a hyper-advanced citadel where cutting-edge science, disciplined training, and ruthless standards shape its students into future leaders, innovators, and legends. Within its towering halls, greatness is not encouraged, it is demanded. But Castillian is not complete within those walls alone. The fifth member is an outsider in every sense. A street basketball prodigy who crossed borders illegally to China, driven not by glory but by necessity. He came to survive, to earn, to send money home. On concrete courts under dim streetlights, he forged his talent through hunger, desperation, and raw instinct. Earning a reputation as an underground legend long before he ever wore a proper jersey. Fate pulls them together. Four molded by privilege and precision, one shaped by chaos and survival. Despite their differences—status, background, discipline—they share one unwavering dream: to rise beyond campus leagues and underground courts, and step onto the international basketball stage. To prove that brilliance can be born in laboratories or alleyways. To show that ambition speaks the same language, no matter where it was raised. Five young men who refuse to let the world decide how far they are allowed to go.

In a world where every warrior is bound to a single Astra—one weapon, one path, one identity—power is defined by what you wield. Some become their swords. Some become their arrows. And in the end, everyone is measured… and limited by that choice. Rudrahan was never meant to be part of that world. He was born in Palash, a quiet town where nothing extraordinary ever happened, to a simple woodcutter’s family. His life should have been ordinary. And for the most part, it was. But even as a child, there was something about him that didn’t quite fit. The way he moved, the way he handled tools—it was too precise, too natural. As if he wasn’t learning… just remembering. When his Astra finally manifested, it didn’t take shape like everyone else’s. There was no form. No clear path. Nothing that could be measured or understood. To others, it looked like nothing at all. So he was placed at the lowest tier—Shata. Insignificant. Forgettable. Someone who would never rise. But what they saw as weakness… wasn’t weakness. In a world where warriors devote themselves to a single weapon, Rudrahan does not belong to any. He adapts, learns, and masters whatever he touches, yet never binds himself to it. And slowly, without anyone realizing it at first, that difference begins to matter. Because if one person can walk every path… then what happens to those who chose only one? And when his journey finally leads him to someone who stands completely against him—someone who cannot step away the way he can— Rudrahan will face a choice no warrior is ever prepared for. To fight… or to let go. "He mastered every weapon… only to choose none."

The horror game 'Obelisk Aperion' descended on the world just a few years ago, but it has already killed countless people and broadcast their gruesome deaths live to the entire world, making a mockery of the living.

Black obsidian obelisks, present in every city, were acquired inside the space rift where the beast wave originated.

Thus, began their beast taming journey. Felix, during the day of the summoning, connected his soul to a different dimension and summoned an old, rusty dull sword instead. He was devastated---the dream to save his family from poverty was shattered. However, a voice echoed in his head, calling herself "Guide." [You have summoned an ancient Legendary Rank sword. Gather the following materials to restore its body...] With the Guide guiding him, even when Felix was far different than other beast tamer, his dream was reignited. Even when he summoned an object, who's to say he'll be lonely in his journey? Who says his weapons won't manifest a humanoid form? And who says he can't contract a beast as his pet? [Host, choose that white kitten as your beast pet] "That one? Out of the five kittens? Why?"

"You will suffice." That's what something whispered in Raizen's mind before a Nyx that slaughtered his village dissolved into shining ashes at his feet. He doesn't know what spoke to him, or why it led him to an unconscious girl with no memory. All he knows is his parents are dead, his home is gone, and the only place that'll take him now is the Underworks - an undercity of rust beneath Neoshima's shining petal walls. Down there, Nyx hunters called Gravers scrape together coins for chipped Luminite and drag themselves back from contracts missing limbs… If they come back at all. Someone offers Raizen a choice: he can stay in the Underworks and survive on scraps like the rest, or train for the Lotus Academy - where Vanguards learn to shape Eon into techniques that bend what should be possible. ...But the voice that saved him hasn't spoken again. And the higher he climbs, a dark truth becomes clearer: the thing that saved him and the darkness that has haunted humanity for centuries... Might just be the same thing.

Alternate Title: Pokémon: Ranch Story/ Pokémon: Story of Seasons Silas transmigrates into the Pokémon world. After traveling for three years, his hidden cheat finally awakens, and he purchases a long-neglected, barely functioning ranch in the Kalos region. The Pokémon on the ranch soon begin to undergo wondrous transformations. A kindhearted battle god Kangaskhan that can send a Snorlax flying with a single punch; a soft, sweet-smelling, universally beloved Cinccino with MAX beauty; and a Cyclizar suspected of being a reincarnator, wielding extraordinary abilities… … That year, Ash had just set out on his journey, and the gears of the world began to turn… That year, Team Rocket dominated Kanto and embarked on a campaign to expand into other regions. That year, Lance became the champion of the first-ever Pokémon World Championships. That year, Silas became a proud ranch owner and began a brand-new chapter of life. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TN: This fanfiction is heavily inspired by Pokemon A New Path/ Pokemon Not A Trainer this Time, so you will find quite a lot of similarities that the author copied but this novel is more of a Slice of Life, Cooking and interaction with the ranch Pokémon as the story goes further. Also so the female lead is probably Diantha but I'm not really sure of it yet even though I'm pretty far off in the chapters since the romance is really thin.

Ronx gets taken out of his normal life and is forced to join the dangerous organization called "Undead Crow", Which is an organization that eliminates criminals with powerful abilities. The story is taken place in the Victorian era but still has modern stuff like guns or coffee shops.
