survival

Aren transmigrates into the body of a dying boy at the very moment the God Trials begin—an event that determines whether a world survives or is erased. Every youth between fifteen and twenty-five awakens a power, as the new generation that will enter the Trials. If the challengers die or fail, the entire world is wiped out. When Aren awakens, he gains an ability never seen before: Shadow—the power to devour foes, summon their shadows, steal their memories, and command an endless army born from darkness. In the very first Trial, he consumes a monster carrying a memory shard that reveals the hidden truth behind the God Trials… and why Aren’s existence in this world is a cosmic mistake. The gods want him erased. But Aren has already begun to consume their secrets.

After transmigrating into a book he had just finished reading, Eric found himself cast as the villainous cannon fodder. The original owner of the body was secretly and wholeheartedly in love with Max, the tribe's strongest warrior, but Max and Michael had grown up together and gradually developed feelings for each other. The original owner tried every means to obstruct them, was eventually exiled by the tribe, and died a miserable death from hunger and cold that winter. Many races existed on this continent, and he was not even human. Eric looked at the piece of grilled meat before him, burnt black as charcoal, and a handful of beans so hard they felt like they could chip his teeth. He looked up at the thatched roof that leaked rain in the summer and let snow through in the winter. Behind him, a small lion cub was wailing for food. Oh, and this little lion cub was also the story's devoted second male lead. The first step was to improve his life. What, the beastmen do not know how to farm? No problem, they can learn. Then they would not have to starve during the winter. Thatched huts, mud houses, and tents could all be replaced! The arrogant Elf race had a strong affinity for plants, which was perfect for farming, and the Dragon race could breathe fire, which was perfect for firing bricks! Humans called the Fantasy Dream Continent a cursed land. Later, a wandering poet would tell tales of the Snow Wolf Tribe who lived there, possessing all sorts of delicacies and fine, home-brewed wine whose aroma could travel for ten miles, leaving a rich aftertaste. Once the rumor spread, countless adventuring parties and mercenaries felt compelled to explore the land, even at the risk of being beaten half to death. Eric utilized the advantages of his bloodline, diligently farming and building infrastructure, leading the tribe toward a better life. It was just that one day he would pick up a prince of the Human race, and the next, a prince of the Elf race. With a prince of the Beastman Kingdom already in his house, Eric was at his wit's end. Perhaps I should just build a nation for all of you! And another thing, you, the main male lead, stop hovering around me! ... Auther: Please forgive my mistakes, as English is not my first language. I appreciate your understanding!

Welcome to the world of Velithar — where the past and future collide. After awakening in a world unlike his own, Retro is thrust into a realm of ancient gods, forgotten relics, and destinies written long before his arrival. Torn between echoes of the past and the pull of the future, he must navigate a fractured world where every choice bends the flow of time itself. Across Velithar, a scattered group of powerful souls struggles to survive the chaos. Each bears their own scars, secrets, and burdens — but their fates are entwined. Together, they must uncover the truth behind the gods’ silence, confront the corruption spreading through the realms, and decide whether the power they wield will save the world... or doom it. Their journey through Velithar is one of loss, resilience, and revelation. As they face monsters, divine forces, and their inner demons, they begin to uncover the truth behind the gods’ disappearance and the secrets buried within their own pasts. But in a world where power can both save and destroy, each choice will determine whether they rise as heroes... or fall as the very calamity they swore to prevent.

Nyxia, a battle-hardened night elf Huntress, was once revered as a living legend—bonded to the spectral spirit beast Loque’nahak and feared across the wilds for her unmatched prowess. But when the sacred temple she once protected fell to corruption, and her lover Ves’Sariel became a void-touched goddess worshipped by twisted remnants of her people, Nyxia vanished into the shadows—riddled with guilt, grief, and rage. Years later, fate drags her from hiding when a void-born threat resurfaces, mutating the land and infecting what little hope remains. Scarred and furious, Nyxia is forced to confront her past: the ruins of her sacred temple, night elves twisted into grotesque worshippers, and a soul-shattering reunion with Ves’Sariel, who is no longer wholly herself. Accompanied by Loque’nahak—fierce, loyal, and deeply bonded—Nyxia claws her way through blood-drenched ambushes, monstrous rot dragons, and heart-wrenching memories. But healing comes in unexpected places. At a hidden sanctuary, she reunites with Perseus, a Lightforged Draenei and dear friend thought lost to time. As Nyxia spirals between rage and ruin, Perseus helps her rediscover pieces of herself long buried under pain. Saga of the Ember Veil is a visceral and emotional dark fantasy tale of love twisted by the void, the savagery of survival, and the flickers of light that remain in even the most shattered hearts. It’s a story of healing, wild magic, and what it truly means to come home—bloody, broken, but not alone.

After twenty years of living an ordinary life in the world he transmigrated into, Milo is certain that nothing in his life will ever change. His days consist of nothing more than working, going home, and having dinner with his sister and brother-in-law. But everything collapses one morning. He wakes to find his entire neighborhood transformed into a wild expanse of overgrown greenery. The power is out, the water no longer runs, and the world suddenly feels foreign—as if it’s no longer the place he once knew. There are no sirens, no warnings, no news. Instead, strange phenomena unfold: plants turn hostile, animals grow vicious, and massive monsters—whose skeletons he had only ever seen in museums—begin appearing like mushrooms after the rain. Then every slain creature releases a floating card, and that card, when touched, grants abilities no human could ever imagine. Milo is the first to experience it. Upon touching the “Rat” card, his body transforms into a half-human, half-animal form—fast, agile, with a sense of smell far too sharp to be considered normal. But the real danger isn’t the card itself… It's the fact that humans also drop cards when they die. With his unique ability, “Fusion,” Milo can combine cards, weapons, and even everyday objects into far more powerful tools and armaments. Yet that very power makes him a target. In a lawless world, neighbors can turn into enemies, and any encounter can end in murder over a single rare card. And the stronger his ability becomes, the clearer one truth emerges—this disaster is no coincidence. It is merely the beginning… of something far greater.

Adolf Hitler died choking on the ashes of his Reich… only to awaken in a world of magic, monsters, and weak-willed kings. Reborn in a land untouched by blitzkrieg or bullets, he finds no swastikas, no iron crosses — only empires ripe for conquest and sorcerers too soft to rule. Stripped of title but not of hatred, he begins again. Not as a man. As a force. With steel in his hands, fire in his veins, and poison in his words, he sets out to build an empire of blood — one bullet, one spell, one corpse at a time. There is no redemption. There is no remorse. Only war. Content Warning: This story contains depictions of fascist ideology, war crimes, and morally reprehensible behavior from an unapologetically evil protagonist. It does not glorify these beliefs — it explores their horror through fiction and philosophical conflict.

They say that 90 percent of the world's oceans have been unexplored, due to just how much floor there is to cover. Imagine a world where, instead of deep trenches of water, our oceans were filled with forests—endless forests—where the further you go, the stranger, and larger the creatures become. The air growing thicker, and heavier, with the stinging sharpness of ozone; trees that stretch into the stratosphere, or bottomless muddy quagmires that are so deep that the bodies claimed can never be discovered; deer the size of whales, or bigger still, with an anomalous number of legs; the oppressive daytime darkness, never ending, due to the boundless appetite of the trees. Who knows what untold methods of ravenous mutilation might be discovered in the great beyond; or what unfathomable treasures lurk just beyond the shadow's edge. We find ourselves marooned in little islands of flat plain in the midst of miles and endless miles of oppressive wooded wilderness. Do not let the sunlight fool you. There is nothing keeping the terrors of the depths from venturing into the light.

Ufaq is a story of a girl who refuses to let the world define her limits. Born into a life where expectations were placed on her before she could even understand herself, she grows up carrying other people’s dreams instead of her own. Surrounded by doubt, pressure, and silent disappointment, she begins to lose faith — not in the world, but in herself. But when she finally realizes that her life was never meant to be a sacrifice for someone else’s wishes, she chooses to take control of her own fate. This is not a story about instant success. It is a story about falling… again and again… and still choosing to stand up. Ufaq follows her inner battles, her quiet nights filled with questions, her fear of failure, and her slow journey towards self-belief. It portrays the emotional war between love and expectations, between obedience and identity, between who she was told to be and who she wants to become.

This novel is for every soul who has ever felt lost, unheard, or burdened by expectations. Because sometimes, the real battle isn’t outside… It’s inside. And sometimes, the first victory is choosing yourself

In my first life, I died screaming on Day 30, ranked 47th out of 50 warlords, watching my fortress crumble because I cut corners on a concrete wall.
