tragedy

Ryu Senariyu always thought life followed a simple rhythm: classes, assignments, a few friends, and the quiet predictability of his dorm room. But sometimes, even the most ordinary days can spiral into the extraordinary. One night, a chance encounter at a convenience store, a cryptic warning from his father, and a fleeting dream—or was it a vision?—shattered his sense of normalcy. In a world that feels both familiar and impossibly strange, Ryu begins to discover that the boundaries of reality are thinner than he ever imagined.

Manic man tries to grow past his trauma in a new, barbaric cultivation world.

In a world where power is cultivated through will, belief, and restraint, destiny does not announce itself. A child is born without title, without voice, without choice — yet his presence alters the weight of decisions made around him. Paths bend. Convictions harden. People sacrifice more than reason demands, often without realizing why. This is not the story of a ruler who conquers the world. It is the story of how a throne is built long before anyone sits upon it — through obsession mistaken for purpose, protection mistaken for virtue, and choices made by those who believe they are still free. The path ahead follows the unseen cost of destiny: the lives shaped, broken, and transformed by a future that never asked to be forged.

What is the limit of bending? How far can it go? Two sides — which one will prevail? Those who wish to conquer, or those who fight to survive? Regardless of the victor, what will be left to rule if the world is in ashes? or A hundred years ago, when the Fire Nation exterminated the four Air Temples and ruthlessly hunted down the surviving Nomads, they never imagined that, months before the massacre, a man would give up everything it meant to be an Air Nomad — renouncing his culture, his faith, and even his bending, in search of a common life in the Earth Kingdom. Thanks to that choice, eighty-three years later, an airbender unlike any other would be born. He would not hide, nor would he follow the pacifist ideals of his ancestors. On the contrary: he would bend air in the most lethal way possible — without limits, without restraint. He would become a scourge, determined to end the war and everything that had caused it.

Some journeys begin without a destination... The story follows the life of our main character, Nich Gauer, who lived in the early 20th century.

Where and what the fuck is happening?! Broke and unemployed now running through the streets almost butt naked with marine life in my pants! And is that a—cat?! You know what, drugs in my system. Fuck it, we ball!

He fumbled for his walkie-talkie, a flicker of anticipation lighting his dull eyes. He was about to deliver good news to the faceless bastards at base. But before he could speak, a blur of movement at his feet caught his attention. The werewolf, the one shackled in silver, fueled by a desperate surge of adrenaline or perhaps the raw agony of betrayal, had broken free. The three other men who had accompanied him roared in frustration and gave chase, their heavy boots pounding on the cracked asphalt. But the leader didn't move. A slow, cruel smile spread across his face. Protocol be damned. He unholstered his sidearm, the cold steel a familiar comfort in his hand. He thumbed the transmit button on the walkie-talkie. "Found another one," he reported, his voice flat and devoid of emotion. Then, without a flicker of hesitation, the sharp crack of a gunshot tore through the oppressive silence. The bullet slammed into the fleeing werewolf's back, the impact throwing her forward before she collapsed in a broken heap. His companions, now returning, exchanged irritated glances. "They want them alive," one of them muttered, his voice tight with annoyance. This loose cannon was going to cause problems. Trinity's life has been defined by isolation and the scars of abuse, a stark contrast to the powerful lineage she doesn't know she possesses. Born to a Beta wolf, the Alpha's second, she was cast out as a defective at the mere age of two, growing up completely unaware of the wolf world that was her birthright. That ignorance is violently stripped away when she is abducted and forced back to the pack that abandoned her. Thrust into a world of primal instincts and ancient traditions, Trinity must confront a reality she never imagined. As she grapples with her sudden transformation and the revelation of her true nature, a dark shadow falls over the wolf community: their kind are vanishing. Against her will, Trinity finds herself drawn into the desperate search for the missing, a quest that leads to a sinister quasi-governmental facility engaged in horrifying experiments. Her journey is one of unwilling discovery, as she fights to understand her past and confront the dangerous future that awaits.

A man dies and awakens inside the novel he once read, reborn as a villain doomed to die for a hero’s rise. In this world, Heaven does not choose one protagonist—it creates countless Heaven-Chosen, each protected by fate and impossible luck. Knowing his death is inevitable, the man turns against destiny itself. Using his knowledge of the story, he hunts the chosen before their legends begin, shattering inheritances and extinguishing fated miracles. With every fallen protagonist, Heaven responds by birthing stronger ones, forging him into a calamity feared across the world. If Heaven insists on creating endless heroes, then he will become the villain all of them must face—the enemy not of heroes, but of fate itself.

When the world fractured under the first aether eclipse, fragments of time began to bleed into one another. Now, in the skies above the fallen earth, the Astralis Academy trains a new generation of Chrono-Knights — warriors who bend the flow of time to defend what remains. Cael Drayen, a stoic prodigy haunted by his forgotten past, and Lyra Vance, a rebellious empath who can feel echoes of the future, find themselves drawn together by a fate neither can escape. As their memories intertwine and timelines begin to unravel, the line between dream and destiny blurs — and the truth behind the Eclipsed Horizon begins to surface. Romance, rivalry, and time-warping missions collide in this cinematic aetherpunk saga — a love letter to the golden age of fantasy RPGs, where emotion and spectacle share the same heartbeat.

Roger Desilva. My old customer was thrusting me from the back. I was enduring pain by closing my eyes, which was a bloody mistake yet again. The same enchanting smile popped up in my mind, which I have been trying to get rid of for the past 5 years, but until today was not successful. Before I could figure out that mingling was different from snatching, it was too late. He came like a wind swift, my world upside down, and vanished without a trace. I became a victim. Do we deserve this? Do I deserve this? I lost everything, but till now I have not been successful in getting rid of his thoughts. For the past 5 years, I have been trying, but he keeps winning when I will finally be free. I can't blame him for sure, but does he have the audacity to ask for my forgiveness at least once? Will he ever show up?

"It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live." -Marcus Aurelius But what if he didn't? What if he didn't fear never beginning to live? What if he wasn't taught fear on that matter? For he was not raised like a normal child, rather like a cattle, a pig... a killing machine. Never truly lived a single second of his life but never fearing death as well. As he knew, death does not matter to those whose life do not matter to the world. But it does eventually matter for his mother was not training him to be something worthless. Rather it was something beautiful. Something elegant. Something... chaotic. The perfect weapon...

Just as you go past the jungle and the old school of sector 5, on that barren land, there once stood a lovely home. A retired army officer and single mother named Alena lived with her three children. A fiercely protective mom - yeah she definitely was. Too protective of her little ducklings. But then one evening, after returning to the home she held so dearly, Alena felt a presence. Something was wrong. An intruder. Unseen yet unmistakable, It seemed to lurk behind the walls or those damned doors. You see, as her fear for her children deepened, patience soon abandoned her. The line between real danger and her growing paranoia began to blur. And soon, the curtains were pulled back. What lay hidden within the house was far darker than an intruder. A buried government secret, powerful enough to ignite an entire city. As troopers close in and citizens turn their fingers toward Alena, suspicion tightens like a rough noose. So I ask you, To the assembly, To this gathering: Was there truly someone hiding in the house… or Was Alena fighting demons she can no longer control?

In his previous life, Kazuki was a scholar whose ideas challenged those in power. Brilliant yet withdrawn, his work was quietly erased through political maneuvering, leaving him forgotten by the world he sought to understand. His death is not the end. Reborn into a new reality governed by rules rarely questioned, Kazuki begins again with the mind of an observer rather than a hero. In this world, magic is real, shaped by discipline, understanding, and intent. What appears stable on the surface conceals contradictions, silences, and patterns that suggest deliberate design. As he grows, Kazuki does not walk alone; guidance, trust, and hard-earned bonds slowly take form around him. Somewhere within this structure exists a man whose influence predates Kazuki’s rebirth—a presence felt more than seen. His actions shape events indirectly, guiding outcomes without ever standing at the center of them. He does not rule openly, nor does he chase conflict. He waits. As Kazuki—now known as Kael—develops both knowledge and ability, he learns that magic and power favor those who understand their limits. Every truth uncovered draws attention, and every step forward risks aligning his path with forces that should have remained unnoticed. Chronicles Of The Reborn Scholar is a slow-burn fantasy about knowledge, restraint, and consequence, following a man who once lost everything—and now moves through a world where magic, loyalty, and hidden hands shape destinies long before they are understood.

Do you once imagine a place where there's a high paying job but cheap prices of supplies and low bills of rent, water and electricity? Sitio De Villasarza is known because of it.

And they soon met Glenn, classmate of Michael who offered them help and protection. They meet a lot of people and they also fight together as the number of their group keeps decreasing. Can they still be alive or they will be dead before help arrives?

"Erosion. Decay. I'm all too familiar with those. Give me something new for once."

In the sunless bowels of Elysium, where mana is mined from the marrow of children and silence is the only currency of value, existence is a calculated equation of pain and obedience. Bright, designated as a "Control" unit within the brutal architecture of Project Gemini, serves as a living dampener—a boy forged to suppress the volatile magic of his brothers while harboring a blinding, forbidden resonance of his own. Caught between the cold logic of his conditioning and the terrifying warmth of a newfound pack, he walks a razor's edge in a world that views him as a disposable battery for a war he does not understand. As the pressure of the cage builds and the shadows of the facility lengthen, Bright must choose whether to remain the switch that regulates the darkness, or become the incandescent spark that burns the entire machine to ash.

In a world governed by divine systems, sacred gifts, and carefully curated destinies, the greatest threat is not a demon lord or a fallen Divinity—but an anomaly the world itself cannot observe. When Null, a seemingly unremarkable human, is summoned alongside a proclaimed Otherworldly Hero to the mighty Atlantis Empire, he is immediately marked as a mistake. While heroes are celebrated, Null is ignored—until an Ultimate Ability awakens within him. That ability is Fantasy Omniscience. Unlike sacred gifts granted by the World, Fantasy Omniscience is a transcendental intelligence capable of reading existence itself as a novel—past, present, and confirmed futures laid bare in absolute truth. It bypasses fate, divine concealment, prophecy, and even the World’s own narrative control. Yet there is a paradox. Fantasy Omniscience cannot fully observe its own user. Null exists as a conceptual blind spot—a being excluded from causality, unrecorded by destiny, and immune to narrative correction. The World cannot define him. Deities cannot foresee him. Even omniscience cannot predict what he will become. In a world where every story demands a final enemy to justify its ending, Null is not the hero. He is the unresolved variable. The one existence the story cannot conclude. And if the world insists on survival… It may have no choice but to make him its Final Antagonist.
