God of Acting

guptaanurag286
India has always dreamed of winning an Oscar and other prestigious awards in filmmaking, but countless challenges have held us back. Yet imagine someone with the caliber to make the impossible possible—someone who reveals the true might of Indian cinema by bringing the world’s greatest poems and epic tales to life. The world would then witness the rise of an artist so extraordinary that they become nothing less than a God of Acting. Note to the Reader: In the early chapters, the protagonist appears to be a naive and innocent soul. However, as the narrative progresses, you will realize he is the most terrifying entity of all. This is a story that demands patience; the deeper you read, the more desperate the situation becomes. Starting from Chapter 30, the pacing shifts as the story descends into the darkness and brutal realities of this world. God of Acting is more than just a cinema-focused journey. It is a multi-layered saga woven with complex geopolitics, psychological horror, high-stakes mystery, and technological warfare. Romance becomes a central pillar from Chapter 40 onwards, adding new dimensions to the grand design. A Final Warning: Throughout the chapters, I have intentionally planted clues and subtle narrative irregularities. These are not mistakes—they are pieces of a puzzle designed to challenge your perception. Keep your mind sharp, connect the dots, and you may begin to see the true face of the Chakravartin Samrat. My Average word length is 8k, so it's a long chapter novel. Disclaimer: This novel is a work of Alternate Universe (AU) fiction.

My Soul. Occupied Body - Please, the Other Me...!

What to expect when reading this chronicle/story: A random System that is minimal in pretty much everything. And when I say random, I mean random! Two souls, sharing similarities but coming from different starting points, somehow staying in one body. Yuri? Yes to Yuri. Futa? Tasteful, but may come around. Fantasy or Sci-fi? I honestly don't know. I am only a Slime penning down vision from another world while immersing in a coffee hot tub. Polygamy, because why the hell not? How many girls? I don't know. I'm not an author in the traditional sense. P.S: Naval Warfare combined with Mecha Combat because RNGesus exists. Congrats to those who hope for this particular combination. P.S.S: How the Hell would a Slime combine both genres into one?! I don't have a brain!

No familiar sighs to be found. No landmark worth a damn can be used to triangulate my position. It is an overall confusing and mind-numbing experience. I react like any normal person who is already dead would and push open the double door, causing a windchime to peal tastefully as I nearly run inside. A blink of an eye later, I find my gaze locked to an extraordinarily beautiful lady, who is cleaning a glass behind the bar counter. The Bartender, with her eyes strangely closed, still manages to fix me with a meaningful glance that prompts me out of my stupor. The moment I meekly plop myself on the stool, the Bartender greets me in an enchanting voice. "Few that do reach my Bar tend to do so with invitations. Rarer still are those that come across here out of sheer chance. You, my dear guest, belong to the latter category." "My name is Viola, the owner and Bartender of the Random Omniversal Bar. To commemorate our first meeting, allow me to mix you a Piano Woman. It's only fitting that a girl who looks as sweet as you deserves a matching drink." "After your soul has quenched its thirst and calmed its emotion, however, may I interest you in a deal? Don't worry, it's not anything that you will find distasteful..." "Huhm... You may see it as me handing out a Beginner's Quest to an interesting individual. After all, for you to get here by pure chance is something to take note of, by me, of course." "So, what say you, my dear?" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I should have read the fine print. It's indeed a bonus that I got a mysterious System that, while being minimal in presentation, actually comes with all sorts of features that my previous tumultuous life would kill to have. But never in my long, former lifetime would I expect to one day occupy a body that is already, well, occupied. To say it's an interesting experience would be a major understatement. I am at a loss for words; however, when the other occupant of our now shared physical flesh willingly cedes the reins of her body to me, of all people. It spares us the cliche of two souls fighting for control, but the other me does so out of PTSD! My poor other me got so traumatized by events before my arrival that I have no choice but to take charge of the situation. Screw me and my bleeding heart, I can't let my other me waste away in a corner of our shared mental space. "Please, the other me..." "I know. I know. I won't hurt them... much. Whether they live or not is up to fate, however..." "No one can hurt us with impunity."
