Hydrus Lestrange** is a transmigrator whose only ambition is to retire wealthy and lazy, far away from the coming wizarding war. Born with immense power, she spent eleven years channeling her magic away from her core to appear as a seemingly powerless **Squib**, planning to inherit the vast Lestrange fortune after the final conflict. Her retirement dream is shattered when the family servants, the Gray family, betray her and attempt murder to seize her inheritance. Forced to flee, Hydrus unleashes her true, terrifying potential: wielding lethal martial arts prowess and the unique ability to **mimic the magical constitutions of creatures she touches**. She embodies this power by transforming into a fire-breathing **Welsh Green Dragon-human hybrid**, initiating a brutal campaign of revenge against the Grays, earning her the shadow nickname, **"The Evil Dragon Hydrus"**. Seeking ultimate anonymity, Hydrus adopts the Muggle persona of **Audrey Astley** and, alongside her adopted brother Rick Astley, becomes a world-famous singing superstar whose magical voice captivates both worlds. Her perfect cover explodes five years later when her true power surfaces, resulting in an immediate Hogwarts acceptance letter at age sixteen. Now, she is trapped in the orbit of powerful forces: * **Dumbledore**, who sees her as a "kind and good child" capable of Ancient Magic. * The Ministry of Magic (led by Barty Crouch), who views her as a dangerous fugitive. * **Voldemort**, who recognizes her as his daughter and wants her back as his powerful weapon. Enrolled as a Fifth-Year Slytherin, Hydrus must study for her intensive O.W.L.s under her eccentric new private tutor, the notorious Dark Wizard **Gellert Grindelwald** (alias Gael Depp). **Can the reluctant dragon heir navigate Hogwarts, evade her powerful enemies, and still achieve her ultimate dream of a luxurious, lazy retirement?**

Vel is twenty-one, an orphan, and completely alone. She works part-time at a municipal library in Velgrimor, a small European city frozen in time, eats once a day at a community kitchen, and sleeps in a cheap hotel room with walls covered in images of the cosmos. She has no family, no friends, no future — only an inexplicable obsession with the universe that borders on the spiritual. She dreams of space the way others dream of love: desperately, hopelessly, knowing it will never happen. But the universe has been watching her longer than she knows. What begins as the quiet, melancholic life of a girl surviving on the margins slowly transforms into something extraordinary — a journey that will take Vel far beyond anything she ever imagined, and far beyond anything humanity has ever known.

Aris Zimmer, a scientist researching quantum time gaps, woke up in his laboratory at exactly seven o'clock in the evening—the same time his girlfriend, Anna, was furious because he hadn't shown up for an important dinner that was supposed to be his proposal night. But something was wrong. The clock on the wall showed a different time from the outside world. His whiteboard was covered in warnings he didn't remember writing. And his experimental machine—which should have been shut down—was active again. As the sky began to spin and reality stuttered like a damaged video, Aris received a mysterious call from someone. The warning was simple: don't touch that machine again—because something outside of time had seen him. The countdown began.

"Manila is sinking. Not only in flood, but in blood." In an alternate universe, the Philippines is drowning in terror. A wave of brutal, unexplainable murders sweeps across the nation-so grotesque that rumors begin to spread of a hidden society of cannibals, an underground order that feasts on human flesh. When the sun disappears from Manila's skyline, creatures emerge from the shadows of narrow alleyways-beings addicted to blood and raw meat. They move among ordinary people with hollow stomachs and predatory eyes, hunting for their next prey. Some are descendants of ancient cannibal tribes from the Visayas. Others come from forgotten clans in the western lands. And now, they are all converging on Manila. A 18-year-old student activist, obsessed with exposing the truth behind her mother's murder, begins investigating the rising body count-only to find herself stalked by the shadows that poison him with a mysterious curse. A 36-year-old former NBI investigator, broken by the slaughter of his entire family, is recruited into a secret organization created by the President-an underground force sworn to purge the darkness spreading across the city. A battle-scarred supersoldier turned CIA agent is deployed to the Philippines to investigate a charismatic megachurch pastor linked to mass murders committed by a Filipino-American community in California. His past wars have hardened him... but the horrors he finds here ignite a new obsession. Bound by fate, the unlikely trio must uncover the truth behind the killings before the entire nation is swallowed whole by the coming darkness- a darkness born not only from its own soil, but from distant lands drifting in with deadly intent.

In the world of cultivation, where cultivating means defying heaven, follow the story of a queen who was betrayed by her husband and killed, only to be reborn to her past with the memories of the future and a system which, if she wants to live, requires her to bind her soul with her soulmate. Drawn together by the resonance of the system rather than force, two wounded souls begin to influence one another. Through cultivation, battle, and shared pain, they grow closer too sometimes by choice, sometimes by consequence. As she quietly rewrites the future and prepares her revenge, the bond deepens, revealing truths neither of them can escape. The closer they become, the more the system responds, blurring the line between independence and unity. I will be uploading one chapter until I am able to see a contract, but if I end up not seeing one, I will just continue the chapters. I don’t really know. Also, the story will start very slowly because of the pacing and character introductions, to really understand the story and how everything will fit together for the arcs. So this first arc will be very slow in pacing so bear with me and let me cook. You will enjoy the first arc. Note: I will also give a brief introduction to my main characters after I have introduced them in the story.

Man must claw at God. Humanity has always been frugal and greedy in its efforts, reaching for what it does not deserve while pretending its hands are clean. It is filled with wretched beings like Nicholas, creatures who live, breathe, and cry out for mercy even as they willingly submit themselves to the very fate that devours them. Nicholas would despise himself more than anyone else, and even then, he would still dare to fight for his life. Such audacity, coming from someone so painfully small, is utterly unacceptable. And yet, despite how pitiful his struggles appear and how worthless that foolish man may be, his frantic grasping might still amount to something in the end. Nicholas, even something like him could crave sanctity. However dreams were not reality, what might a lamb do, if they wish to dream?

Nobody will ever be perfect. Not now, not ever. Yet I will survive, carrying my brilliant ideas with me into solitude.

In a world that runs exactly as designed, people still lose everything without a crime ever being committed. Careers end quietly. Reputations collapse without accusation. Deaths are ruled natural, accidental, or self inflicted, and the system continues forward without friction. Arjun Malhotra is an ordinary professional living a routine life. He does not chase power or truth. He notices patterns. A senior manager exits at the perfect moment. A scandal destroys the wrong person. A breakdown reshapes an entire organization while leaving no trace of intent behind. Each event has an explanation that makes sense on its own. Together, they form something harder to dismiss. What Arjun begins to understand is that there exists a kind of practical psychological knowledge that operates entirely within the law. A way of shaping human behavior through timing, pressure, expectation, and predictability. No force. No threats. No illegality. Just carefully designed conditions that make certain outcomes inevitable. The people who use this knowledge believe they are correcting a broken system. They do not act directly. They do not leave evidence. They design outcomes and let human nature do the rest. As Arjun becomes entangled in this invisible architecture of influence, he discovers that stopping it requires another kind of interference just as dangerous. One that disrupts intent without exposure and alters decisions without consent. Each intervention works. Each one costs something human. Nothing Illegal is a psychological webnovel about invisible power, engineered behavior, and moral erosion in modern systems. Every event is plausible. Every consequence is permanent. And the greatest threat is not what is illegal, but what is allowed to exist unnoticed.

On September 17, 2037, humanity finally fulfilled its age-old fear — the fear that a single mistake, a single order, or a single act of madness could erase millions of years of the past and the very possibility of a future. After the nuclear exchange, Earth fell silent and barren. Cities were reduced to ashes, oceans boiled, and the sky turned a leaden gray, robbing the planet of sunlight. The world we knew was dead. A radioactive wind now drifts among the ruins of a once-great civilization, a ghostly whisper of all that was lost. Only a few survived — accidental witnesses to the end of human history. Now, they seek not only shelter but meaning in a world stripped of gods, rules, and tomorrow.
