Card Apprentice Daily Log

Dalton Wyatt, a world-renowned scientist and inventor, is transmigrated into the body of a high school student, also named Dalton Wyatt, who had tragically committed suicide due to unfortunate circumstances and a complicated life. The enchanting world of cards he finds himself in is vastly different from Earth, yet eerily similar in certain aspects. Unlike the peaceful Earth, where humans fought only amongst themselves, this new world is plagued by dungeons and monsters. Here, humanity's survival hinges on battling these mythical and legendary creatures. Ordinary mortals lack the strength to stand against such formidable foes. Thankfully, a select few are blessed with the ability to harness their souls, manifest soul power, and become card apprentices—humanity’s last hope against extinction. Card apprentices are individuals who form contracts with grimoires, mystical artifacts that allow them to wield powerful and versatile cards to fend off monsters and conquer dungeons. A grimoire provides card apprentices with abilities such as card creation and card fusion. Most importantly, it enables them to unlock their full potential in card battles. While this world shares the concept of science with Earth, its focus is not on electronics or industrialization. Instead, cards replace the need for most technologies, fulfilling even the smallest of daily necessities. This world revolves entirely around the grimoire’s abilities, particularly card creation and card fusion. Transmigrated to a place where strength can be bought with money, Dr. Wyatt is forced to earn a living to ensure his survival. Fortunately, with his otherworldly knowledge and expertise, card creation comes naturally to him, setting him apart from other card apprentices. Dr. Wyatt crafts and sells perfect, powerful, and resourceful cards, steadily growing stronger in this monster-ridden world. --- "What did you say? Making good cards is hard? Bah! Card creation is a breeze." "My friend, let me enlighten you—there are no 'trash card ingredients,' only incompetent card creationists." [Commencing card creation using ingredients, i)Bloody Veins - G Rank, Mortal Grade ii)Nyon Rope - G Rank, Mortal Grade iii)Common Core - G Rank, Mortal Grade Card creation… complete! Card Name: Bloody Rope Card Type: Item Card Card Rank: E Rank, Common Grade Card Rating: 3 Stars Card Durability: 100/100 Card Effect: The Bloody Rope can bind and incapacitate its target. When in contact with a target’s wound, it triggers paralysis and blood drain effects. Additional Effect: Paralysis, Blood Drain] "This can’t be real! You used G-rank mortal-grade ingredients and yet crafted an E-rank common-grade card with full durability and a three-star rating? This isn’t real—I must still be dreaming! I couldn’t possibly have woken up today—this has to be a dream!"

Asura Overlord: The rise of the absolute shadow

When the Veil tore, the first demons slipped into the mortal plane. They weren’t the lords of the abyss, but the weaker kind—drawn by the overwhelming life energy that this world held compared to their own. The Milky Way Galaxy, closest to the Demon Realm, became the first battleground. Planet after planet fell, crushed beneath demon hordes that relied only on brute force. But when they finally turned their sights on Earth… something went wrong. The invasion failed. For the first time, demons were forced to retreat. They left humanity alone—for now. But humanity wasn’t foolish. Everyone understood: as long as demons existed, so did the threat of extinction. So mankind struck back. With the sudden awakening of mysterious powers called Soulmarks, humans began to hunt demons instead. Victory, however, came with a terrible price—mass casualties. Entire cities were lost. Families shattered. And yet, through this endless struggle, humanity evolved. Guilds rose. Militarization Institutes were built. Structures of war and discipline took root, all forged with one purpose: the eradication of demons—and any threat that might follow. Although they were completely unaware of Asura's existence. Among the many who grew up in this new world of Soulmarks was Kai Zen. On the surface, he was just another face—an orphan of the first invasion, living in the shadow of his cousin, the prodigy Kyro. While Kyro was praised as a natural genius, handed powerful bloodcore gears, and groomed for greatness, Kai was left with nothing but scraps. But fate had other plans. [Congratulations, You have granted the system] [Your first trial will now begin] And if humanity was to survive the war against demons… Then Kai Zen would carve out his place in the world, no matter the cost.

My Summons Are Villains From Other Worlds.

Rin Eldraven never wanted to be special. As a scholarship student at the prestigious Celestial Summit Academy, all he wanted was to survive his summoning ceremony and earn a respectable familiar. Instead, his flawed ritual tears open a rift to the Nexus; A dimension where defeated legends and fallen villains are imprisoned for eternity. What emerges isn't a loyal familiar or noble spirit. It's Malachar, the Crimson Tyrant, a demon lord who conquered seventeen kingdoms before being betrayed and killed. Their bond forms instantly, a Soul Resonance connection that cannot be broken without killing them both. Now Rin faces an impossible situation. His bond is corrupting him, spreading black marks across his body that threaten to consume his humanity. The academy fears him. The students hate him. And the powerful families want him expelled or dead. But Rin refuses to give up. With Malachar's centuries of combat experience and his own determination to survive, he fights his way through the academy's ranking tournament, proving that a "villain" summon can be just as powerful as any hero. Each battle pushes him closer to the corruption threshold the point where he'll lose himself completely and merge with the demon. When Rin crosses that threshold and survives, he becomes something unprecedented: a being neither fully human nor fully demon, with the potential to revolutionize summoning itself. But his newfound stability attracts dangerous attention. Secret societies want to recruit him. A mysterious figure named Shade;A former student who survived his own Nexus bond offers forbidden knowledge at unknown cost. And the Nexus itself begins calling to him through dreams, showing him thousands of other defeated legends waiting for someone to open the door. As Rin navigates academy politics, deadly tournaments, and the price of his growing power, he discovers the truth: his "accidental" summoning might not have been an accident at all. The Nexus chose him. The question is why and what it expects him to do. In a world where heroes are celebrated and villains are condemned, Rin Eldraven must prove that power doesn't determine morality. It's what you do with that power that matters. Even if that power comes from the darkest corners of existence. Author's Note Welcome to My Summons Are Villains From Other Worlds! Thank you for reading! Rin's journey from nervous scholarship student to something far more dangerous has just begun, and I'm thrilled you're here for it. What Makes This Story Different This isn't a typical power fantasy. Rin isn't becoming stronger and more heroic—he's becoming colder and more isolated. The corruption isn't just physical marks; it's psychological transformation. When everyone wants to use you, when trust becomes a weapon, coldness becomes armor. But here's the question: will that armor eventually become a prison? Content Notes Contains: Body horror, psychological deterioration, morally gray choices, political manipulation, combat violence Does NOT contain: Gratuitous gore, sexual content, meaningless edginess Final Thoughts This novel asks: If you merge with darkness, can you stay in the light? If everyone treats you like a monster, do you become one? And is there a middle path between human weakness and demonic strength? Thank you for joining this journey. Your support means everything. Stay corrupted, my friends. — The Author P.S. - Love the story? Please leave a review! Got theories about Shade or the Nexus? Drop them in the comments!

Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons

"Dragons and their spawn rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _____ Power comes from the beast you tame. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, chimeras, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, troll dogs(not doge) or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option... His aging parents sold everything for his "failed" chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? Turns out they start small too. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a darker story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun and taming expectations. _______ If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's Luna, the FL... Her skin and clothes are morphing into shimmering scales from her dragon power. Remember Sailor Moon? Magical girls? Now imagine if the magical outfit wasn’t a cute dress, but an actual dragon! The dragon is the dress... It’s not just fashion; it’s fusion. High-level beasts tend to leave their mark, and Luna wears it like a boss, pulling off the ultimate power move. _______ We will use the same Discord from my first book, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 _______ Silly tags that seem to matter a lot to some readers: No Yaoi, No Yuri, Possibly Harem (Vote! I can write either, and in any case, there will be multiple girls. The only difference is whether he chooses one in the end or goes the "liberal" route.... democracy is yours!), No NTR.
