The Halo Effect

Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER] *original cover by me

Kaleidoscopic DxD

The complete collection of harunaru's fanfiction stories. ( Vol. 001 ) The Red Dragon Emperor & The Demon King of Sixth Heaven ( High School DxD/Fate ) Falling into a magic circle is one thing. Meeting a scary gun lady inside of it? That was scary. But turning into her, succeeding her, and inheriting her legend? Yeah, that was the icing on the cake. Namikaze Haru was perfectly fine with that, though, and if anything, the gender change was secondary. (Or so she learned.) ( Vol. 002 ) The Red Dragon Emperor & The Great King of Destruction ( High School DxD/Fate ) Namikaze Haru found himself involved in a figurative "holy war". A grail that can grant omnipotent wishes? Fast way to become a Harem King! ... if he can survive the other enemy Masters first. Hey, at least he's got a smoking hot Servant with him! ( Vol. 003 ) The Red Dragon Emperor & The Fox Priestess of Peerless Beauty ( High School DxD/Fate ) Namikaze Haru was always normal. And a pervert. The odds of him ever finding a girl were slim. So when Yuuma Amano approached him, there were no words that could describe the happy feeling in his heart. And then she attempted to kill him, revealing her true nature. At that moment, however, Haru's desperate pleas for someone to save him woke something inside of him. A secret that he was not aware of. Something that a certain vampiric troll is watching with great enthusiasm. ( Vol. 004 ) Flutter of the White Emperor ( High School DxD ) Ambition is a flame that is to be handled with utmost care. Ambition can, will, and has scorched the very world we claim to love. The fuel of ambition, more often than not, is power. What happens when the White Dragon Emperor has power and ambition in abundance? Well, the end of everything. With few he can trust and no knowledge of his future, things will be bleak without change. ( Vol. 005 ) Levia-tan's☆Harem King ( High School DxD ) Uzumaki Ruto used to be a normal, healthy teenager. His life was good. He was smart, strong, and very popular with the ladies. He knew his life was supposed to be simple. He was supposed to live normal lives, get a normal education, perhaps someday give up the foolish notion of building his own harem and settle down with a nice girl. It would have been nice... It could have gone on forever. Then some S&M-wearing Fallen Angel shit came around and messed everything up. A retelling of High School DxD with the focus on my OCs Haru and Ruto replacing Issei and Vali. ( Vol. 006 ) The Delinquent Queen & The Oppai Dragon ( High School DxD/ God of Highschool ) Naru is reborn into the universe of Highschool DXD with a Sacred Gear that belongs to another universe? And... did I mention that her Sacred Gear is too OP? AU-OP/OC-SI/OC-Reincarnation-High School DxD and The God of Highschool Crossover. ( Vol. 007 ) Love, Friendship, and Heart of Cards! ( Yu GI Oh! ) 16 year old Naru Namikaze finds herself in Yugioh season 0 after being electrocuted. She wakes behind a school and immediately bumps into Yugi. It’s a dream come true for her. Though she soon finds herself scared for her new friends. And why is she the one being rescued instead of Tea? Why do they all have American names and not Japanese? Is it the Manga or Anime? What’s happening! ( Vol. 008 ) Love, Friendship, and Heart of Cards! II ( Yu GI Oh! GX ) After 10 years after the match between the King of Games and Atem, Domino City opens the Stadium doors, to give new students a spot to join the prestigious school of Duel Academy island. Ruto and Haru are contestants with dreams to achieve by passing the exam. What does a new Generation do to an Island full of adventures? A retelling of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX with the focus on my OCs Ruto and Haru replacing Jaden and Syrus. ( Vol. 009 ) The Traitorous Prince of Konoha ( Naruto ) Namikaze Haruto is neglected, but he's fine with that.

BROKEN CIRCUIT

Vael Dusk arrived in Kuala Lumpur with forty-three dollars, a duffel bag, and two years worth of running behind him. He wasn't looking for a fight. He was looking for enough money to disappear — somewhere cold, somewhere quiet, somewhere the dead couldn't find him. He'd left the Army with a discharge paper that said *cleared* and a head that said otherwise. Four men were buried because of a call he made. He'd been paying for it ever since in the only currency he had left — movement. Never stop. Never sit still. Never let the quiet catch up. The quiet caught up anyway. It always does. One night in The Pit — Kuala Lumpur's most brutal underground fight ring — changed everything. Vael won. Not cleanly. Not carefully. He won the way a man wins when he has nothing left to protect, which is the most dangerous way there is. Victor Shen was watching from the shadows. Victor Shen is always watching. What follows is a descent. Through the underground circuit of Southeast Asia — Bangkok, Jakarta, Manila, back to KL — where fighters are assets, loyalty is a leash, and the only way out is through. Vael will rise through ranks built on blood and debt and silence. He will find Raza, who sees what he is and trains him anyway. He will find Danny, who looks up to him with the specific trust of someone too young to know better. He will find Mei Lin — Victor's own niece, dismantling the empire from inside it, the one person in this world who looks at Vael and sees past the veil to whatever lives underneath. He will lose them. Not all of them. But enough. Enough to break something in him that was already cracked. Enough to turn the hidden thing loose. This is not a story about a fighter who becomes a champion. It's a story about a man who carries a demon he can barely control, in a world that will do everything it can to make him stop trying. *Some men enter the circuit looking for money.* *Some enter looking for glory.* *Vael Dusk entered looking for nothing.* *That made him the most dangerous man in the room.*
