Lost in the Modern World

In the far future, her world died. Under a gray sky and a broken sun, cities became skeletons of steel and concrete. Demonic invaders devoured the land, the forests turned to ash, and humanity survived only in ruins and sewers. She was one of the last. A nameless girl called Blondie by the soldiers who rescued her. A battlefield survivor. A healer born from a world that no longer grew anything. She learned to fight. She learned to hide. She learned never to trust. And then she died. When she opens her eyes again, she is no longer in a wasteland. She is inside the body of a kidnapped girl in the year 2006 — in a world overflowing with green forests, running water, summer air, and something she has never seen before: Normal life. But she is not normal. Her wounds close before your eyes. Her body heals from anything. Her presence feels… wrong. Silent. Observant. Unreadable. She doesn’t understand school. She doesn’t understand money. She doesn’t understand friendship. But she understands survival. Now stranded in a peaceful modern world that feels more alien than the demons she once fought, she must decide: Will she remain a weapon shaped by war? Or will she learn how to be human again? ---- Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

Return Of The Lightning God

In a world of magic and cultivation, Han Jin is a master of physics. After dying in a high-voltage accident on Earth, cynical electrical engineer Han Jin transmigrates into the body of Ling Jin—a "trash" noble with shattered spirit veins in a world where lightning is feared as a divine curse. Shorthanded and broken, his only ally is Tai-Zhu, the grumpy, reincarnated soul of the fallen Lightning God living inside his mind as a System. While others spend lifetimes meditating on "spirit flow," Jin uses his knowledge of circuits, grounding, and electromagnetism to hack the laws of cultivation. Using silver solder to repair his shattered veins and engineering logic to weaponize the heavens, he begins a "heretical" rise to power. The Great Clans call it divine wrath. Jin just calls it a closed loop. "Magic is just science without a circuit. I’m here to build one" —Han Jin ___ The smell of ozone was the first thing Jin noticed. It was a sharp, metallic scent that reminded him of his final moments in the Seattle rain, reaching for a conductor that had no business being live. Then came the pain. It wasn't a dull ache; it was as if someone were threading white-hot copper wire through his veins. Jin opened his eyes and immediately wished he hadn't. Above him, the sky wasn't blue. It was a bruised purple, swirling with clouds that looked like angry ink blots. "Great," he croaked, his voice sounding like sandpaper on gravel. "I'm in hell. And hell has a terrible weather forecast." "It is not hell, you arrogant biped," a voice boomed—not in his ears, but directly against the inside of his skull. "It is the Azure Peak. And you are currently ruining my favorite crater." Jin scrambled backward, his limbs feeling heavy and uncoordinated. He wasn't wearing his reflective work vest anymore. Instead, he was clad in charred, silk robes. His hands were smaller, the callouses of a forty-year-old engineer replaced by the soft skin of a teenager. Boom. A bolt of violet lightning streaked from the heavens, striking a tree mere inches from his feet. The wood didn't just catch fire; it vaporized. "Okay," Jin said, his heart hammering a frantic rhythm against his ribs. "Hallucination. High-voltage induced psychosis. Just close your eyes and wait for the paramedics." [System Initialization: 1%] [Scanning Soul Compatibility... Warning: User sarcasm levels exceed recommended parameters.] [Linking to the 'Will of the Storm'...] "Listen closely, boy," the voice returned, now tinged with a weary impatience. "I am Tai-Zhu. Or I was. Now, I am the only thing keeping your heart from exploding. You have been chosen by the lightning—mostly because you were the only one nearby with a basic understanding of circuits. Don't make me regret this." Jin looked at his palms. Tiny arcs of blue electricity danced between his fingers. He felt a strange, magnetic pull toward the clouds above. For the first time in two lives, he didn't just feel the power—he understood the flow. "A system?" Jin muttered, a slow, dangerous grin spreading across his face. "Fine. But if I'm doing this, we're doing it my way. No more 'Heaven's Will' garbage. We're grounding this operation."

SSS-Rank Dimensional Editor: Exclusive Authority Over All Dimension

In a world where gods walk unseen among mortals, one young man is about to discover he was never meant to exist. Tony Code has always been different. Emotionless. Logical. Brilliant in ways that defy explanation. But he's always assumed he was just broken. Human, but wrong. He was wrong about being human. Eighteen years ago, the goddess of Knowledge defied the cosmic order. She gave birth to seventeen divine children and scattered them across dimensions, each one a beacon designed to elevate mortals beyond their appointed place. But her eighteenth child, Syntax, god of Computer Science, she hid differently. Born mortal. Raised human. Fragmented across reality in a way that should be impossible. When a library burns and Tony saves a girl he barely knows, everything changes. Gods are real. Dimensions are layered. Time flows differently for immortals. And Zeus, king of the Greek pantheon, has been hunting for him since his first breath. Now Tony must navigate a war that began before he was born. Guided by Marcus, a former messenger god haunted by a dying promise and protected by Grimmey, a narcissistic physics deity whose essence is unraveling, Tony searches for siblings he never knew existed and the truth about why his mother sacrificed everything to hide him. But Zeus's hunters don't give second chances. And in a reality where gods operate outside time, Tony's mortality might be his only advantage... or his greatest weakness. Can a god who doesn't understand emotions learn why finite existence matters more than eternal power? Can logic defeat beings who define reality's rules? The gods rule dimensions. Tony Code is learning to rewrite them. AUTHOR'S NOTE Welcome to The Gods Rule Dimensions, I Rewrite Them! If you love: - Complex power systems that actually make sense - Clever protagonists who use logic over plot armor - Mythology with real consequences - Found family between broken, flawed characters - Magic systems that double as philosophy You're in the right place. What to expect: - Slow, earned character growth (Tony starts at "I don't understand emotions") - Gods operate on different time systems, this matters to the plot - No harem. Relationships are earned and meaningful - Power system with rules. Wins and losses have reasons - Chapters vary (1000-2500 words) for better pacing What NOT to expect: - OP protagonist from chapter one (Tony's the weakest fragment right now) - Training arcs that solve everything - Deus ex machina (okay maybe once... you'll owe a god of Greed for it) Update Schedule: 3-7 chapters weekly. Quality over speed. A Request: Leave reviews and comments! Knowing what works (or doesn't) helps me improve. I love discussing lore and answering world-building questions. Spot inconsistencies? Tell me. I've built something complex here and need your help keeping it consistent. Thanks for giving this story a chance. Let's see what happens when a god who doesn't understand emotions must learn why mortality matters. Let's rewrite some dimensions together. — Tyrant Sama
