Reborn in 1958: From Famine Girl to Family Pillar

Rebirth + Era + 1960's - Femine + System Space + Military + Powerful Male protogonist At seventy-eight years old, she died with nothing but regret. Only at the end of her life did she learn the cruel truth— the world she had struggled through was nothing more than a novel. And she… was cannon fodder. Her father, once a Squad leader, was falsely branded a traitor and executed. Her three brilliant elder brothers were crushed one by one, stepping stones for the novel’s so-called “female lead.” Her family’s blood paved the road to the heroine’s glory. She could only watch helplessly as the heroine’s family prospered while hers was destroyed. Powerless. Broken. Too late. But fate was not finished with her. A falling flowerpot ended her life— and opened her eyes once more. 1958. She is thirteen years old again. Her parents are alive. Her brothers are alive. Everything has not yet begun. In the turbulent 1960s era, she awakens with memories of her previous life and an unexpected System Space that grants her resources and hidden advantages. This time, she will not be cannon fodder. She will not allow her family to be sacrificed. She will not let the so-called heroine step on their corpses to rise. Amid famine, political storms, and the shifting tides of the era, she quietly builds strength, gathers supplies within her mysterious space, and protects her family step by step. And standing in the shadows of the military compound is a powerful, sharp-eyed man— a future commander whose destiny was never meant to intertwine with hers. In her previous life, he stood at the peak of power. In this life, he watches her change everything. This time— She will become the author of her own fate. (Original) PS-: The Story is taking place in the parallel world, so although the historical events are same, characters are fiction.

Dead Galaxy Chronicles

Dead Galaxy plunges into a sprawling science-fiction future set in 2852. The narrative opens in an era where Earth’s nations, ravaged and exhausted by centuries of devastating wars, were forced to surrender governance to interstellar resource-gathering corporations. This handover established a new galactic frontier defined by institutional corruption, forgotten laws, and deep moral decay. Tiberion Solegard, the head of the technology giant Evoke Systems, took command of the Supreme World Republic (SWR)—a structure founded by these corporations—and maintains absolute control over the galaxy through 12 centralized institutions. His power became unshakeable after he achieved immortality. This extreme consolidation of authority was partly necessitated by widespread colonial uprisings that erupted following the emergence of the Incompatibles. The Incompatibles first arrived in 2438: an advanced alien race that, terrifyingly, could not be processed by the human brain. Any attempt by humans to perceive these invaders often resulted in instant, irreversible blindness or catastrophic loss of consciousness. They were untouchable; no known human weapon could inflict damage. Then, just as suddenly, the Incompatibles vanished, yet the chilling traces and enduring mysteries they left behind never faded. So, what is this story about? Inspector of the Dead Galaxy and Fugitive of the Dead Galaxy The protagonist is Mehmet, an Inspector working for the Bioethical Oversight—one of the SWR's 12 governing bodies. Mehmet is violently jolted awake from a 400-year cryo-sleep due to a minor power grid failure. Because of this catastrophic interruption, Mehmet is afflicted with amnesia; he cannot recall his past, the reason for his slumber, or any crucial details of his life. His institution is barely functional, on the verge of collapse from rampant corruption and bribe-taking. Mehmet’s simple goal is to collect his 400 years of accumulated pay and retire to a peaceful life. However, he is required to complete three final assignments before retirement. As he reluctantly navigates these last duties, Mehmet will find himself tearing through the veneer of the galaxy’s darkest secrets, learning brutal truths about his own past, and struggling to comprehend a universe filled with impenetrable mysteries. Expect From This Saga: A vast, realistic sci-fi universe (featuring intricate institutions, cults, mega-corporations, and political webs) Entertaining side characters Dystopian mysteries A compelling villain R-rated humor and dark comedy A lengthy, multi-part adventure series Warning: This work contains violence, psychological tension, sexual content, and themes that may be disturbing to some readers.

Sovereign of the Dying Sun

The light of the Jade Firmament has started to taste like old iron. After ten thousand years of total control, the gold-grey mists that connect the stars are thinning. The Great Cold is moving inward from the edge of the sky. When the Bureau of Shrouds gets the governorship of the Azure-Vein Star, it is presented as a restoration of honor. In reality, it is an exile to a world of jagged obsidian and eternal frost—the only place where the mountain-sized behemoths still exhale the primordial dew. Without this substance, no soul can survive the journey through the void between worlds. To control the harvest means to hold the lifeblood of the empire, but for the Shroud family, it is a death sentence given with a smile. They must now navigate a frozen citadel filled with the remnants of the previous overseers. In this place, every ritual is a battlefield, and every word is a hidden blade. Standing in the shadow of his father is Shen Yan-Tao, the third son of the Shroud lineage. Born with a fractured sea of Qi and seen as a defect, Yan-Tao cannot perform the great feats of power expected of him. He is a young man trained to stay silent and record the history he will never shape. However, Yan-Tao carries a burden that the empire has tried to erase for centuries. He does not see the world through intuition or spirit; he perceives it as a series of recurring patterns and mathematical certainties. In a court where a misplaced cup during a tea ceremony can spark a palace coup, his ability to calculate the weight of karma is the only weapon quick enough to beat back the approaching silence. As the dew begins to dry and the behemoths stir in the deep ice, Yan-Tao must figure out how to secure his family’s position in a world that wishes them dead. To succeed, he has to start a path of cultivation that turns away from the traditions of the Jade Firmament and looks toward a future that no longer mirrors the past. The ruler of the dying sun must choose whether to save the world as it is or become the catalyst for its final, necessary change.
