Mark Swinton was twelve years old when his school trip vanished over the ocean. Five students survived the crash. Fewer survived the island. For four years, Mark was trapped on a nameless land that didn’t exist on any map—a place where animals were not natural, the air felt wrong, and survival meant becoming something harder than human. When he was finally rescued, the world called it a miracle. Mark called it unfinished. Now sixteen, he returns to a life that moved on without him—wealth, school, family, normalcy—all of it fragile, all of it unfamiliar. He doesn’t talk about the island. He doesn’t talk about the people who didn’t come back. And he doesn’t talk about the changes that never left him. At night, his senses sharpen. His dreams are filled with blood and moonlight. And something inside him is waking up—something the island never meant to release. But the world is about to remember what it tried to forget.

Hikari no Kuro (Black of Light) He was born into violence. Trained by sixteen. Forced to kill by seventeen. By eighteen, Kuro did not inherit Tokyo’s underground. He absorbed it, until his silence ruled louder than screams. For twenty years he wore a scar under his eye and blood on his knuckles. His father built a king; Kuro became a monster who believed he deserved no light. Then he vanished. No war. No funeral. Just rain, a battered T9 phone, and a throne he abandoned only after making sure it would not collapse without him. Hikari was never meant to meet him. She has spent her life learning how to disappear: shaking hands, hidden bruises, a breath that catches when men get too close. She does not believe in rescue. Only survival. When violence corners her in a dead-end alley, Kuro sees her. Not a victim, not a ghost, but someone worth pulling back from the edge. Even if the calm he wears stops holding. This is not a love story. It is a covenant written in bone and forty-three seconds of silence, between a woman who believes she is ash..., and the man who knows ash still burns. Because even in the purest light... a shadow always lingers. ! Content warning ! : violence, trauma themes, harassment. Chapter-specific CWs provided.

In the world of gaming, Kaito was a legend: the number one player, a virtual assassin who never took a single scratch.

After being dropped into the world of Harry Potter, Leonard awakened a plant cultivation system. Any plant he touched could be massively enhanced, even absorbing materials from Magical Creatures to gain entirely new abilities. Chomping Cabbage can’t move? Only good for potion ingredients? Speed boost! Split! Shield breaker! Self-destruct! Cabbage, get in there and bite him! Venomous Tentacula doesn’t reach far enough? Dragon Breath! Poison Spray! Transform into an unfeeling artillery piece. What used to be plants that were only a little dangerous became the sworn enemies of wizards once Leonard got his hands on them. Then the Second Wizarding War erupted. Voldemort led his Death Eaters in an assault on Hogwarts—only to be met by rolling hills of Chomping Cabbages and Whomping Willows sprouting legs and covered in dragon scales. The battlefield turned into an all-out Plants vs. Wizards war. Voldemort: I’m losing my damn mind.

I knew a girl like you was never meant to be easy to keep. So I did what no one else would. I lied. I destroyed lives. I sided with criminals and killers. I became one. All to keep you safe. All to keep you smiling. All to make sure you were mine. They call me a monster, a murderer, a criminal who crossed every line that should never be crossed. But they don’t know the truth. They don’t know what I was protecting you from—or what I was willing to become for you. This is not a love story with a happy ending. This is a confession. Because loving you didn’t just ruin me. It taught me how to kill.

An Imperial Scholar by day. An assassin by night. The World of Cultivation has changed. Elemental Mancers. Flux Mancers. Spirit Mancers. Soul Mancers. Raining down fire and splitting oceans. Destroying mountains with a single stomp and calming skies with a glance. Controlling the tides of Karma, while wielding the souls of others like a puppeteer tugging on the Lines of Fate. The most mysterious of them all were Spirit Mancers, a truth that Theron was more than intimately familiar with. Due to one's Tribulation, his life was turned upside down. His family, his rage, his somber sadness becoming nothing more than Bad Karma's fuel for a madman. He was once a gentle young man, a non-combative Water Mancer who wanted nothing more than to read his novels to the sound of the rain and one day become an Imperial Scholar. But now... Everything had changed. He donned a cloak in the silent night as the clouds above gathered. Pulling its hood over his chilling blue eyes, he stalked off into the darkness. The first droplets fell. He would become the nightmare of his enemies, the blade hidden in the shadows of Heaven's tears. The River of the Night.

In a world where everyone is born with a Veil Core, the source of all magic. Reyley awakens in this world through reincarnation, stripped of all memories of his past life. Fate proves crueler still when he is born without a Veil Core, marking him as an anomaly in a society built upon magic. Powerless and discarded, Reyley grows up on the fringes of existence, watching others live lives forever denied to him. Tragedy follows him relentlessly. One by one, everyone he comes to love is taken from him, leaving behind only grief and unanswered questions. Consigned to solitude, Reyley is forced inward—toward reflection, doubt, and an unrelenting examination of his own morality. From this suffering, he set a goal of his own. Whether it is righteous or monstrous, he cannot say—but he pursues it regardless. As Reyley walks this self-chosen path, fragments of his forgotten past begin to surface, revealing truths that challenge not only his identity, but the very structure of the world he inhabits. Boundless Gods is a dark fantasy that explores one’s perception of the world, the fragile line between morality and obsession, philosophy on life and the cycle of transcendence versus fate—asking whether destiny is something to be accepted, or something meant to be broken.

A chance encounter in Switzerland binds two strangers who refuse to share their names. He is a mafia boss, feared in the shadows, hiding behind the desire for a peaceful life.

When she discovers the truth behind his world—violence, orders, and death—love shatters. Unable to accept a life built on blood, she walks away, carrying a secret of her own. Years later, fate reunites them. She is no longer alone. Between them stands a child born from a love never forgotten—a living reminder of what they once were and what they lost.

Five years later, he returns—not as a student, but as a professor. Sagres Greengrass is a transmigrator. As a member of a pure-blood family in the magical world, his first experience of magic came from a Cruciatus Curse cast by his mother.
