Investing in My Crippled Wife: Every Return Makes Me Stronger

Soren Valmere was branded worthless after he failed to awaken three years in a row, becoming nothing more than a family embarrassment with no future. Ethea Morvain was the legendary Ice Empress, but a catastrophic Gate incident left her paralyzed, and her world turned upside down. By a strange twist of fate, these two forsaken souls were forced into an arranged marriage, only to be abandoned by the very families who had made the bargain. But fate had other plans. On the very night of their arranged wedding, Soren awakened a power unlike anything the world had ever seen: the Investment Authority. It rewarded every sacrifice, every risk, and every act of care. And Ethea, the woman the world had given up on, became the center of it all. Risk his life to save hers? Get Supreme Grade returns. Help her cultivate again? Gain an equal amount of experience immediately. Cook and feed her? Become the world’s most skilled chef. But the more Soren learns, the more he begins to realize their marriage wasn't just a simple arrangement. There are secrets buried beneath it, forces moving in the shadows, and truths neither of them were ever meant to uncover. Will he be strong enough to protect her when the real enemy finally shows itself? Will Ethea manage to recover her powers? And what price will he have to pay for the greatest investment of all? _______ _____ _ Author's Note: Hey everyone! This is my first time writing in this genre, so please go easy on me.

Cryptomining Supervillain

Wondered if a cryptomining app would make you a Superhero..or villain? Damen Dark is an unfortunate orphan trapped in a cruel household, forced to endure the abuse of his uncle, his family, and a world that seems determined to break him. One ordinary day, he receives a mysterious link on his phone advertising a new app—DemCoin, a cryptocurrency mining program. Damen knows it’s probably a scam. But curiosity gets the better of him. At first, the app seems harmless. It “mines” coins by targeting living beings—stray animals… and people. With little expectation, Damen uses it as a private outlet for his bottled-up anger, siphoning coins from those who torment him: his family, his classmates, the bullies who rule the streets. It feels like justice. It feels good. But DemCoin is far more than a mining app. As Damen accumulates enough coins, hidden features unlock—features that allow him to target individuals and steal their powers. What begins as survival turns into temptation, and temptation into transformation. With every stolen ability, Damen grows stronger… and more dangerous. Now faced with unimaginable power, Damen must choose who he will become. Will he take revenge on a world that never showed him mercy, or rise as a hero to protect it? The truth lies somewhere in between. In a cruel twist of fate, Damen soon realizes the irony of power: the stronger he becomes, the greater the threats that hunt him. And worse still, DemCoin is not just a tool—it is a force, subtly guiding his path. Whether he knows it or not, the app isn’t shaping him into a savior. It is forging a supervillain. And Damen Dark may have no choice but to become exactly that.

Naruto: Time Traveler; The Endless Journey

A Transmigrator trying to figure out his time-control abilities and specializes in Genjutsu. There is a great journey ahead of him that will span over centuries. He aims to reach the top of the world and to secure his place in it. His time-control ability has limitless potential and allows him to time-travel and more, but it doesn't seem like it will make him stronger in a fight any time soon. So, to survive in the dangerous world of shinobi, Yuta Arai must rely on his own capabilities and to build up his own strength himself, as he doesn’t have any Bloodline or exceptional talent to rely on either. But he has something better than any Bloodline or talent could ever offer – unlimited time. --- The story is slow-paced. It's time-travel and Genjutsu – oriented. MC is smart, and the story contains a lot of thought-process of the MC and the decision-making being usually explained in detail, be warned. It dives into detail on Jutsus mechanics, Chakra and especially - Genjutsu. MC trains and makes progress as story goes, and eventually he will reach the top of the ninja world, and maybe beyond that, but it won't be fast, and his progression will be logical. MC won't become OP any time soon, this is NOT wish-fulfillment kind of story. There will be some unexpected turns and additional AU stuff at the end of the story, since eventually the story will reach the point where MC will try to figure out how he got into this world to begin with. But for the rest - the Naruto universe is as canon as possible (I rewatched Naruto+Shippuden about four times already for the sake of it). The world will include only canon parts of the anime. If something happens in the manga but not in the anime, then that won't be here either, I didn't read the manga. The filler episodes of the anime and side-story movies are mostly ignored as well. The only exceptions are: the side-story about Roran (no-brainer since it also has time-travel in it); the story about Toneri on the moon (I like magic eyes, Tenseigan included); story about Hiruko and his Chimera technique (since it has a lot of interesting potential); and also I might take something from Boruto as well, but probably only the Otsutsuki clan's arrival and Kara organization, since that's introducing an additional end-game challenge, but nothing more, Boruto is not real! --- No harem. 100% Original, no AI is being used in any way but for the poster. Chapters 1500+ words. Updates: new chapter almost every day. Advanced chapters available on patreon.com/SycoreNovels Discord - https://discord.gg/DDcT34uhtz (Feel free to drop by and say hi)
