A prideful snake who bowed to no one—until he became a jealous husband. A snow tiger beast warrior feared and respected, reduced to an obedient husband. A wolf chief known as a Casanova, who never stayed—until he chose loyalty. And a selfish merman who learned generosity for the first time, expecting nothing in return for his prized possession. All of them changed after meeting one woman... After sniffing in an impossible scent. Her name is Arinya. …And unfortunately for this world, that’s me, haha. *** I wrote a book once. It was an unhinged fantasy born from my high-school brain, driven by loneliness and too many hormones. It was a world of beastmen, wild freedom, and the kind of romantic attention I could never get in real life. I poured every impossible desire into it: adventure, danger, and yes… a 'lot' of handsome partners. Before I knew it, I had a thousand chapters of pure escapism and pure thrill. Then on a college camping trip, I fell off a cliff. I expected to wake up in a hospital room but nope. I woke up on a soft field of grass, with air too fresh to belong anywhere on Earth. And then something moved behind me. Sticking out of my tailbone was... A tail. My tail? Yellow and black stripes and very, very real. I touched it. Completely real. My ears? Also gone—well, moved. They were now perched on top of my head like a confused jungle cat. And the outfit? Quite revealing, made of animal hide which matched my tail. What was going on? At first, I thought it was a prank. Or a dream. Or maybe karma is finally cashing in. But the more foreign memories evaded my mind, the clearer my situation became. This wasn't cosplay and it wasn't Earth, either. And—surprise—it wasn't even the world from my own book. Welp. I had been transported into a completely different Beastman world as a beast girl called Arinya. Sounds fun, right? Well… it would be, if I weren't apparently the ugliest duckling in the entire freaking savannah! Rejected by every potential mate I stumbled across and sneered at like a freaking eyesore. This was not how I planned my fantasy to come to reality. Trust me—if this is my fantasy come true, then someone needs to fire the author. But then again, after entering this world, I'm suddenly... Attractive. I mean, there's no change to my face and the freckles are still there, but for some reason, handsome beastmen begin to flock around me, wanting to be my mate because I smell... Pleasant. What's that all about?

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.

Shoved into the backseat of his father's car right after graduation, Riley Hale ended up marching toward a company building with a bagged lunch and a pen. Still in his toga, the fresh graduate never thought he’d land in the office of the continent’s top lizard, err, dragon, as his aide. And that would’ve driven any person wishing for a corporate career to tears. After all, who wouldn’t want to serve the fastest ticket up the corporate ladder: Kael Dravaryn, the infamously elegant, unhinged, and extremely overpowered Dragon Lord of the continent? Well, that would be Riley. The same Riley who didn’t expect to spend his days dodging fireballs, dressing his boss in robes more complicated than dark magic, and serving as a literal target during morning sparring. Now trapped in a job he never truly agreed to, the hardworking aide decided to hold out until it was time for his glorious resignation. But leaving a dragon’s clutches could never be easy, especially one with elemental mastery and a finger worth a private army. Yet, as Riley, who longs to quit, attempts to navigate ancient politics, wyvern threats, and other accidents (many of which are definitely not his fault), he might just hallucinate himself into seeing something beneath his boss’s arrogance and molten glares. Maybe he’d actually care if Riley got turned to ash.

In a home where boys are allowed to dream and girls are told to stay silent, fifteen-year-old Annie grows up learning that her hopes mean less simply because she is a girl. Slapped for daring to love freedom, forced to watch her brothers live boldly while she shrinks into the corners of her own life, Annie is expected to accept a future she never chose. But Annie is not weak only unheard. Through secret sketches, stolen moments on a skateboard, and quiet acts of courage, Annie begins to fight back in the only way she knows how: by believing in herself when no one else does. Each small step she takes becomes a ripple, slowly challenging the limits placed on her by family, tradition, and fear. More Than They Believed is a powerful coming-of-age story about resilience, identity, and self-worth. It is a story for anyone who has ever been told they are “too small,” “not enough,” or “not allowed” to dream and chose to keep going anyway.

Or how about this one—one and a half meters long, forged from ironwood. Dragon keepers swear by it.

The Spider wanted beauty, but they found a God of Death. Luo Ning woke up to a nightmare: the whistling wind, cold rain, and the screams of his clansmen as the Phantom Troupe gouged out their eyes. As a member of the Kurta Clan, he was supposed to be the prey, another "trophy" for the notorious criminal organization. But something shifted during his transmigration. Beneath his pale blonde hair, his eyes didn't just turn brilliant red—they awakened with a single tomoe. This is the Sharingan. In a world ruled by Nen, Luo Ning possesses a "Specialist" ability that defies all logic: the power to convert life energy into Chakra. While others struggle to master basic techniques, Luo Ning executes Ninjutsu with deadly precision. From the blood-stained forests where he first clashed with Uvogin to the soaring heights of Heaven’s Arena, Luo Ning’s path is one of relentless evolution. By fusing the Scarlet Eyes of his fallen kin into his own sockets, his power doubles with every pair. • One pair unlocked the Two-Tomoe Sharingan and C-rank techniques like the Great Fireball Jutsu. • Two pairs granted him the strength to face a Troupe member head-on and use B-rank techniques like the Shadow Clone and Fire Dragon Flame Bullet. • The next goal? The Mangekyō Sharingan and the absolute suppression of the Spider. Guided by the prophetic quatrains of Neon Nostrade and supported by a top-tier manager who can "lease" him massive amounts of aura, Luo Ning is no longer running. With the Eight Inner Gates as his secret trump card and Kurapika as his strategist, he will reclaim every stolen eye and make the Troupe pay in blood. "The Phantom Troupe thinks they are the hunters? I’ll show them what happens when a Ninja enters the game."

In Neo-Japan, 2100, the Empire rules with an iron fist, wielding modern Samurai Agents to enforce order, while the Yakuza maintain a fragile balance of power across seven sprawling artificial cities. Ichiro Yoshima, heir to the most powerful clan, is thrust into a perilous position after rescuing a mysterious silver-haired girl marked by Angel’s Blood, capable of glimpsing fragments of the future. Meanwhile, Akira Hayashi, the last of her clan’s legendary warriors, wields a dulled katana—a symbol that even in a world of surveillance, technology, and political calculation, honor remains a weapon. Drawn together by circumstance, Ichiro and Akira are united not by obligation, but by the threads of fate, and soon find themselves entangled in the Empire’s deepest secrets. To uncover the truth, both push themselves to extremes—training to become Agents of the Empire themselves, walking the line between power and subversion. As hidden experiments, forbidden abilities, and ruthless conspiracies surface, Akira seeks purpose and justice for the clan that was nearly erased, while Ichiro navigates the treacherous intersection of loyalty, legacy, and survival. Together, they must pierce the Empire’s veil of control—before the nation itself becomes a battlefield for blood, power, and vengeance.

Han Soorin thought landing the job of a lifetime—makeup artist for LUMEN, the hottest K-pop boy band in the world—would be her dream come true. Billboards, music shows, sold-out arenas… and her ultimate bias, Jung Haejin, standing just a breath away. But reality? A nightmare wrapped in designer clothes. Haejin, the flawless leader adored by millions, is nothing like the angelic idol Gleams worship. Offstage he’s cold, sharp-tongued, and impossible to please. The first words he throws at Soorin? A sneer at her “lack of manners” and a warning she won’t survive a week. Yet every day backstage pulls her deeper into their chaotic world—glittering stages, vicious rumors, obsessive fans, and the suffocating pressure of perfection. She sees the cracks in Haejin’s mask, the loneliness behind the spotlight… and against her better judgment, her hatred begins to blur into something far more dangerous. When a scandal threatens to destroy them both, Soorin must decide: walk away from the idol she swore to hate, or risk everything to stand by the man she never expected to possibly... love? ✨✨✨✨✨ [Chapter: 5-20 Update Daily] [Update schedule: 10+ comments or 2 reviews=1 Bonus chapter]

Survival is National Destiny. The "Blocky Civilization" has descended upon Earth, forcing nations to send champions into a deadly, procedurally generated arena.

Ren Wu died once. Two thousand years ago, he was the Imperial Chancellor who governed Hell itself—an Auditor who enforced cosmic law, taxed gods, and sentenced demons with a brushstroke. Then Heaven and Hell cooperated. He was assassinated before he could finish signing a decree meant to fix the cycle of reincarnation. Now, he has awakened in the body of a dying factory owner at the bottom of the modern Underworld. His wealth is his health. His business is survival. His enemies are corporations, gangs, ancient clans—and the government of Hell. While others cultivate to become immortal heroes, Ren Wu cultivates assets. He monopolizes supply chains. He weaponizes contracts. He turns gangs into employees. He turns ancient cultivation manuals into corrected instruction manuals. To Ren Wu, modern cultivators are not warriors. They are illiterate workers using corrupted translations of Hell’s employee handbooks. As Ren rebuilds his corporate empire, fragments of his sealed memories return… Why did his archaeologist parents send him an ancient coffin before vanishing? Why does the Administration desperately want him erased? Why does every ancient family’s sacred art trace back to Hell? To uncover the truth, Ren Wu must do what he does best: Acquire political shields. Build unions. Exploit loopholes. Rewrite laws. Because in this world… You don’t punch judges. You don’t sue gangsters. And you never fight the system. You become the system.

As he journeys deeper into the mysterious dimension, hunted by horrors and burdened by a trauma he cannot outrun, he must confront the terrifying truth: what if the monsters aren't the only danger?
