In a world where memories can be bought, sold, or stolen, what’s left of being human? Silas Kade — once an archivist of humanity’s history — now wanders the ruins trading fragments of memory to survive. But when a stranger deals him a recording that remembers him, Silas is pulled into a quiet war over truth itself. Every memory he uncovers brings him closer to the one question he’s spent his life avoiding: what does it mean to be human when your past no longer belongs to you? A haunting, slow-burn sci-fi western of memory, identity, and redemption.

Ardhan Wicaksana, a 22 years old young man from the year 2025 who is skilled in pencak silat and kanuragan martial arts and is religiously devout, accidentally travels back in time to the year 1582 after touching the Sastra Jendra Hayuningrat manuscript in the royal library. Stuck in the era of the Mataram Kingdom, he meets Raden Bagus Wiratmaja, Ki Ageng Pemanahan, and Danang Sutawijaya known as Panembahan Senopati. His fame as a warrior sparks various intrigues among the royal court; some see him as an asset, while others are suspicious of him. Behind all this, Ki Surya Kala and Ki Tunggul Wulung a shaman/black warrior who masters the art of tension—target Ardhan because of his manuscript and spiritual abilities. During his journey, Ardhan faced various physical and mental trials: he tried to protect the village from robbers, was exposed to black magic, was seriously injured, and experienced supernatural dreams related to his ancestors. He strengthened his faith with the help of Wiratmaja and realized that supernatural powers must be channeled through prayer. A deep connection forms between Ardhan and Rara Ken Sagandi, the daughter of a nobleman—leading to a love dilemma that could potentially influence palace politics. Political intrigue at the palace attempts to bring him down to the point of near execution, forcing Ardhan to flee to the forbidden forest and face followers of black magic and supernatural beings guarded by the Siluman Ular Naga (Dragon Snake Demon). Finally, the mystery of Sastra Jendra is revealed: it is not just a spell, but also spiritual knowledge about the purpose of life and the balance between power and obedience to God. At the height of the conflict, Ardhan leads the defense of the Mataram kingdom against a major attack, and wins the final duel against Ki Tunggul Wulung by combining the Tapak Naga technique and the Al-Fatihah prayer. After the victory, the door of time opened again—Ardhan was faced with a difficult choice: return to the year 2025 with the lessons he had learned or stay in Mataram to build a new future. This story highlights the themes of faith, responsibility, and the essence of true power.

THE STRONGER YOU ARE, THE MORE PRESSURE YOU HAVE.

The Genius Wizard of the Magic Tower Bound by Limits, Verden. Despite having a brilliant mind, his innate magical power was insignificant. He was betrayed by someone he trusted, who stole his thesis, and he ended up as an experimental subject in the Magic Tower. In the face of power stronger than his own, his genius mind alone could do nothing. “So, I must become stronger.” For revenge and survival. He tenaciously endured and endured again, establishing a new theoretical system to defy his nature. And finally, he completed an unprecedented, groundbreaking theory in history. Tomorrow, I will break the limits.

I had finally done it—achieved the ultimate Paladin build. Maxed stats, impenetrable armor, and so many resistances that death itself had given up on me. I was an unkillable tank, an indomitable force. Nothing could stop me. And then my PC exploded. I died. Irony, thou art a cruel mistress. But instead of the afterlife, I woke up as my Paladin character… in the wrong freaking genre. Instead of castles and dungeons, there were people flying around on swords, shooting qi beams like fantasy laser guns. “This is definitely the wrong genre,” I muttered, watching a pompous young master sneer at me. “Kowtow, kiss my foot, and beg for forgiveness!” he declared. I looked at my imaginary maxed-out health bar, then at his flimsy silk robes. Oh, this was going to be fun. __________________________________________________ Hey everyone!

The world had been in chaos for over three hundred years. In the Central Plains, singing and dancing never ceased, foreign tribes sharpened their weapons and fed their horses, Sword Immortals roamed the Martial World, and famed generals quelled unrest in all directions. Five years before the great upheaval, the young Pharmacist Li Guanyi committed murder on a rainy night. At last, he opened his eyes and saw this chaotic human world. Underneath the hooves of horses lay piles of bleached bones – famed generals, beauties, the Martial World, Divine Weapons, commoners, Dharma Forms. Since ancient times, only white bones and yellow sand remained on the fields! Confucian Scholars, crushed beneath iron hooves; Buddhas, swept away by long spears! "I, Daoist Li Guanyi, invite this world to its death!"

A person carving out a path through life in a chaotic world. Zombies: Roar. Lin Fan: "We're all neighbors, why be so irritable?" Lin Fan: "I still need to go grocery shopping." Lin Fan, looking at the zombified Xiao Qing: "Xiao Qing, I bought a few bottles of water, and I've already scanned the QR code." Lin Fan: "Boss, I'd like to settle my wages." Sunshine District, the community where Lin Fan lived, swarmed with countless refugees seeking shelter. We should learn from Lin Fan, adhere to the law, work for money, and strive to buy houses and cars, becoming outstanding citizens in a city overrun with zombies.

In modern India, Vihaan Roy, a 28-year-old workaholic businessman running his family’s sprawling import-export empire, dies in a tragic car crash. Obsessed with Indian history and trade, he regrets burying himself in work, yearning for a life of joy. As he fades, he wishes for a second chance to truly live. Reborn in 1600 Surat as Jai Vora, son of a middle-class spice merchant, he awakens with the Emperor System, a mystical interface granting stats (Power, Stamina, Endurance, Health, Wisdom, Agility, Perception, Luck, Charm), starting with Wisdom=100 and Charm=1, and the Ability Detector to scan others’ stats and loyalty. Jai spends his early years savoring life’s pleasures—market games, street food, family warmth—in his bustling port city. But when the East India Company’s ship Hector docks in 1608, his past-life memories flare: these foreigners will plunder his homeland. At age 8, with Charm=7 and a knack for rallying allies, Jai vows to roast the EIC with wit, trade, and sabotage, building an empire to rival theirs. The Emperor System fuels his rise, offering quests (e.g., recruit followers with stats above 10), stat-stealing (with risky backlash), and loyalty perks (x2 learning at +10 loyalty, system benefits at +50). Normal folk have stats of 8-10, elites hit 20-25, prodigies boast 40-100, and nobles range 20-80, but Jai’s stats can soar un-constrained, marking him as a legend. From charming street kids to outsmarting Mughal nobles, Jai grows from a clever boy to a trade titan. He faces cutthroat rivals, EIC schemers, and rare prodigies (like a Power=80 warrior), using his Ability Detector to recruit or steal stats. Quirky moments—like “branding” spices or tossing modern slang into Mughal courts—clash with heartbreak, as betrayals and losses (family, loyal allies) test his resolve. By his 20s, Jai commands trade routes, influences emperors, and battles EIC fleets, his Charm and Wisdom turning foes into followers. Will he rewrite history, balancing joy and duty, or will the system’s temptations (stat-stealing’s cost) doom his dream? Reborn to Roast the East India Company with My Emperor System is a thrilling blend of historical intrigue, game-like progression, and swaggering defiance, as Jai Vora becomes the GOAT of India.

Alex, a 29-year-old gym coach from Mumbai, is the self-proclaimed “Mumbai Maverick”—single, enthusiastic, and a natural at any sport, from cricket to sprints. His life of coaching clients, cracking puns, and chasing personal bests on late-night Juhu Beach runs takes a wild turn when a blinding flash yanks him into the Arkvault, a seven-mile-long alien ship in deep space. Labeled Specimen 47, Alex finds himself in a cosmic prison alongside 100 young humans and 5,000 diverse alien species, each housed in tailored sectors. The ship’s towering, robotic aliens provide food, clothing, and an Earth-like atmosphere, but their motive for collecting specimens remains a mystery. Armed with a painless, embedded bracelet that translates all languages and grants low-level ship access, Alex navigates this interstellar zoo with his trademark humor and athletic grit. As he befriends humans and quirky aliens—some friendly, some grumpy—he discovers the aliens are tiny creatures piloting robotic suits for show, a secret they bribe him to keep with promises of freedom and friendship. Alex, uniquely compatible with alien tech and abilities, earns a bio-suit that adapts to any environment and other powers through quests, from telepathy to super strength. But the Arkvault’s faster-than-light tech means Earth has aged beyond recognition. Embracing his new life, Alex’s adventure blends laugh-out-loud antics with the poignant reality of a home he can’t return to, forging a path as the ultimate cosmic survivor.

The Navy isn’t always just, and pirates aren’t always evil. But the Navy, by its very nature, stands on the side of justice. Pirates, no matter the cause they claim, represent the banner of lawless justice. It is the Navy that upholds order in the world. Pirates exist only to tear that order apart. Yet justice is not a word to be twisted. Evil masked in justice is still evil. To commit atrocities in the name of "justice," to kill the innocent while wearing that title, is a sin I cannot abide. My justice has limits.

Auren wanted a quiet life. Maybe hunt a few Starfiends, nap under the sun, and leave the whole saving the world thing to someone else. He’s done playing the hero. Unfortunately, fate and whatever cosmic force hates him seem to have other plans. Now he’s stuck with three disasters in human form. Alwyn is a grumpy kid with a vengeance streak and a secret. He’s a regressor reliving his life. Erika is a sharp-tongued opportunist obsessed with wealth, stuck with a mysterious system she can't seem to shake. Han is a cheerful airhead with suspiciously sharp combat skills, and as it turns out, he’s also a transmigrator. And then there’s Auren himself, a reincarnator saddled with all his memories and none of the peace he hoped for. Peaceful life? Not happening. Saving the world? Apparently back on the table.

The world didn’t end with bombs or wars — it ended through the air. An invisible virus spread across the skies and, within hours, anyone over the age of twenty-four “dropped like flies.” The younger ones survived, but their fate was far worse: the virus doesn’t kill instantly — it transforms. A single drop of infected blood in the wrong vein can awaken the monster within. The change is swift, agonizing, and irreversible. In this post-apocalyptic landscape, groups of young survivors struggle to endure in silent cities, taking over schools and warehouses, improvising leadership and building fragile defenses against the “infected” and other mutations. The story blends visceral action with psychological horror, focusing on survivor groups, tense violence, and moral dilemmas.
