"Rehabilitation" is the journey starting from [The Fool] and ultimately reaching [The World]—a path of understanding the real world and forging an ideal one. Ren Amamiya decides to complete his rehabilitation by "nine-timing." Exploring Mementos with Hare, practicing swordsmanship with Mei, learning coffee brewing from Himeko, trading with Raven. When Ren Amamiya confidently kicks open the deepest door of Mementos, bringing the invincible Satanael to challenge the final boss, the Evil God, he instead finds a white-haired, cold-faced man sitting on a throne eating instant noodles! Suddenly looking back, seeing an extra white-haired Tuna among the partners who arrived with him at the Cocoon of Finality, Ren Amamiya has a sudden realization: he transmigrated to the wrong world! This isn't P5, but the world of Honkai Impact 3rd! "Damn it, now I've really become the Trickster!" Watching his companions, who deeply believe his "Persona" theory, shout things like "Kurikara!" and "Project Bunny!" as they charge forward, a drop of cold sweat slowly trickles down Ren Amamiya's forehead. However, the most troublesome part is... "Recently, Joker's room seems to have become quite the 'love nest,' hasn't it?" After the battle, Bronya murmurs faintly, and nearby, Seele, Rita, Fu Hua, and the others instantly freeze up.

"For the greater good of the nation, I, Crown Prince Arthur Von Lichtenberg of Narventall, shall sacrifice myself in an arranged marriage to the stunningly beautiful and powerful, busty MILF Demon Queen."

English isn’t my first language, so bear with me if I mess up a little!

During an internal Navy hearing, the top brass conducted a serious inquiry into Rogers Daren, the so-called "scum of the Marines" and Admiral of the North Blue. "You’ve had improper relations with royal princesses and noble ladies from multiple North Blue kingdoms?" "I call it showing care for the people." Marines High Command: … "How do you explain the absurdly high salaries of the North Blue Marines under your command?" "Well, with what the HQ pays, how else do you expect them to risk their lives?" Marines High Command: (ーー`) "Why is the North Blue fleet equipped with technology from Germa?" "That’s just military-civilian cooperation. Germa 66 was moved by my sense of justice." Marines High Command: (○_○) "And how do you explain the unusual deaths of a Celestial Dragon in the North Blue?" Daren sighed. "A maritime accident… truly unfortunate. I personally express my deepest condolences." Marines High Command: (._.?) And so begins the story of a rebellious, unorthodox Marine.

Year 1540 Nicole is a lowly human from the mainland trying to make ends meet as she would often paint for middle and high-class people sometimes even Purebloods which was rare in her case. She receives little money which doesn’t financially support her living. Until one day she received an invitation from the Snow Kingdom to paint the great Lord Jasper Gervassius. She reaches the kingdom and Meets Lord Jasper in the hopes of making a big income she receives more than what she bargains for. ---------------------------------- Teaser: Jasper placed both of his hands on either side of Nicole's head trapping her with his body. He stared down at her looking at his sweet innocent lamb, he couldn't help but smile at her widely. Her doe-like eyes staring back at him only made him want to devour her "Why do you play these games with me darling you know I don't like it. I think you forgot who you're dealing with." He leaned down against her lips slightly flicking his tongue in her mouth making her crave for more."My Quahneah Woman" Nicole gasped in shock as she wondered how he knew her tribe's name. Before she could say another Jasper had cupped her cheek softly placing his lips on hers and kissing her softly as he slowly removed his hands against the wall. He was wrapping his arms around her waist bringing her body closer to his as there was no space between them. As they continued Nicole started to become breathless pulling herself back to breathe, she couldn't help but look up to see Jasper looking at her with a smile that was Duchenne. His purple orbs looked into her seeing the love and adorn affection he was showing her.  "Jasper I have a question to ask you" Jasper hummed waiting for her question" What are we going to do about the tirade ." Jasper's smile suddenly became sinister as he narrowed his eyes "Why don't you leave that to me, darling."

Grace Harper has always been an outsider—raised in a wolf pack that never truly accepted her, adopted by an alpha with too many secrets. When her ex-boyfriend leaves her for his mate and the truth of her adoption comes to light, Grace knows she has to leave… or die trying. But her path to freedom slams into the Lycan King. Cold, powerful, and burdened by the ghosts of a past he refuses to share, Caine doesn’t want Grace in his world. He doesn’t believe she belongs in any world but her own. And yet, with fate tethering their souls, his control begins to crack. Grace never asked for his protection. She never asked to want him, either. But something ancient is waking, and the deeper she dives into the truth of her past, the more she realizes: maybe she was never meant to be free. Maybe she was meant to change everything. Starting with him. ----- [Grace's POV] As a human, I should be miles away from any large shifter event. Especially the annual Mate Hunt. A hunt for mates. Doesn't that sound barbaric? Yeah, it's as bad as it sounds. Several packs in the area gather as their newly minted adult wolves shift. Females are let into the woods first and are given an hour's head start, just before sundown. Then it's time for the males, ostensibly thrown out to hunt down the scent of their fated (or chosen) mates. It isn't an event for the faint of heart, and it's definitely no place for someone who can't shift. So why the fuck am I here, running my little human heart out, chased by what sounds like an entire pack of wolves? Great question. I don't know, either. But I'm here. Surrounded by howls fueled by the thrill of the hunt. Feet bleeding. Lungs freezing. I am so fucked. ---- R18. Dark themes, including but not limited to: Murder, attempted murder, a stack of dead bodies, betrayal, mild sociopathy, an ML who appears to bathe in red flags despite his favorite color being green, an unwarranted hatred of blueberry muffins, and pillow thievery. A **slow burn**, spicy wolf shifter urban fantasy romance with a lot of random plot trying to knot-block everything. When the spice hits, please read responsibly. Thank you~ [WSA 2025 Contest Entry]

Jake wasn’t a saint—just a man who played the role people expected. A former athlete turned aimless drifter, he spent his days coasting and his nights as someone’s little secret, paid for services no one wanted to admit they needed. But one wrong move, one moment in the wrong place, and his life is over. When he wakes up, it’s not to the world he knew but to something out of a myth—a land ruled by powerful elven women, where men are nothing more than ancient legends. Now reborn as the child of a powerful princess, his existence is an anomaly—one even his own mother doesn’t understand. Fearing he may be some kind of curse, she keeps his identity a secret, shielding him from the world. Because in a world of only women… what happens when they find out what he really is? As Eren learns more about this world, he discovers he is linked to an ancient prophecy—one that speaks of uniting the seven tribes. To survive, he must rely on his wit, charm, and thirst for adventure, forging his own path to bring them together before the world tears itself apart. To do so, he must complete a ritual known as TUNA, with each queen and her commander, while facing the greatest enemy the kingdoms once fought before they were divided. ||||||||||| Note: Mc growth will be slow until chapter 18 *My first book and my entry into WSA! https://discord.gg/GVVFrzrP

A God's existence should be grand, glorious but not this one. This God was nothing but an obedient lap dog - doing the dirty biddings of The All-Powerful Pantheon. He was programmed to do so without fail. What if he was assigned a task, a task so important that the fates assigned a prophecy to it? What would he do?

Dai Yao once wondered what would happen after traveling to the Douluo Continent. First, beat up the hypocritical Tang San and the scumbag Yu Xiaogang. But when he actually crossed over and arrived at the Douluo Continent, he became the fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire. What now? Failing in the fight for the throne would mean death. The age gap was too significant, and the hope of victory seemed slim. Fortunately, he still had a second martial spirit: a green lotus. (Not bowing to the Grandmaster, nor joining Shrek Academy.)
