This story was first written for a competition. It did not win anything categorize. But it chose to live anyway. My Handsome Dad Has No Friends was born from a simple wish: to hold space for single parent—especially men—who are often expected to be strong, composed, and tireless. And for children who had to grow up earlier than they should. Follows a child and his father—two people navigating a world that rarely asks if they are okay. Behind ordinary routines and quiet moments lie subtle humor, unspoken loneliness, and a love that never demands attention. This is a story about presence. About choosing to stay. And about a family built not from completeness, but from loyalty. My Story does not offer grand answers. It simply reminds us that staying is also a form of courage. If, after reading, you become a little gentler toward your father, a child around you, or yourself— then this story has arrived.

Six years ago, the very first portal appeared that carried mana into Earth, awakening powers within humans. Some used them for selfish reasons while others thought to use them for the betterment of society. Everything changed when monsters appeared through these portals and humanity had to fight back against them for our survival. Amongst them were individuals who had awakened godlike powers that came straight from mythology: A New Yorker who has multiple pairs of wings sprouting from his back while carrying a scroll and pen; A Ukrainian firefighter who controls fire with the embodiment of a primordial demon; and even a Japanese historian who wields lightning that materialises floating drums on his back. They were Mortal Gods, mortals that had the power of Gods and now stand above humanity to supposedly protect us from the monsters beyond the portal. I was just another normal awakened human who was about to meet my end when a jade book appeared in front of me. What do you mean I have to comprehend Dao?! *** Notes: Any R-rated scenes will be denoted by a '*' followed by an 'R' with the number of 'R's showing how much of it is R-rated.

Pro Tip: Never play a game 100 different times, no matter how addicting it is! ~My Lovely Harem School Life~ Just like the cringy name suggests, it's a well-known dating sim that gained popularity due to the beautiful heroines, fun story, and most importantly, the significance of the player's choices that influence the endings. ...But why did I end up transmigrating into the scummiest character in the game, Yagami Reiji, the heir to the biggest Yakuza group in the country? The trash that harassed the main cast, the trash that bullied the students, and the trash that ultimately 'steals' the heroines if the player makes the wrong decisions. A walking bad ending. Why me? And out of every possible role... why him? Now, I’m trapped in a life that isn’t mine, surrounded by classmates who flinch at my presence and a father who expects me to inherit an empire built on blood. Can I rewrite Reiji’s fate before his past drags me down with him? Can I live a normal school life when the shadows of the underworld are watching my every move? I’ve got multiple targets on my back, a reputation in flames, and to make matters worse, the original protagonist is somehow a complete moron. This isn’t a dating sim anymore. This is my reality..... *** Patreon: patreon.com/Ares_00 You can access: - Up to 30 advance chapters - Updated Character Images (Free) - Fun and interactive polls - Private community - Fan requests  - And MUCH MORE
