(Will edit after main story conclusion. Specifically from the start.) *** Synopsis: A fifteen-year-old schoolgirl happens to find herself approached by a strange woman after a rough day—who happens to know her plans on running away. Astonished, she tried to interrogate, but ended up getting dragged into another universe and another world. There, she finds out that experiments are being ran on fourteen other candidates set aside for her. Being the last candidate, she is told that she might be the first one to face demise. But she is determined to find out what is up with this facility. Eventually, she comes across an astonishing fact—that this whole world and setting is similar to that of a book she read during her younger days. And the protagonist happened to be her own cousin, who also killed her at the near end of the novel. *** (Prologue) Listen... No one is judging no one here. And so am I. The world has been cruel these days. Being modern means being rude to people on the street who are below your rank—That is what they believe. I find this all frustrating, why move with a state of mind that could as well kill you someday. You don't know if this person is a lawyer, a far relative, a doctor, a politician. But you already get the gist, don't you? And like any other teenagers my age, I really want to run away from all this. It's not like I am an orphan or from a poor household. I am from a family which is a standard class in economical terms in this world. And yet, I want to run away. Haha! Anyways. I did succeed. I wonder at what cost? I am away from all that hostility of course... But now I am in another world. Not reincarnated. Not transmigrated to another body. I am with my own soul in my original body, but in another world. This world... is weird. Thinking back, I remember reading a strange book when I was young. This book actually speaks about this world. I am a character there. Funnier thing, I don't know what is up with it either. It appears to me that the writer decided they want to see the 'live-action' version of it. So now... I am the actor playing my own character.

The cat demon who escaped from fate

Xu Yang died.At least,that was supposed to be the end.When he opened his eyes again,he found himself lying in a cold forest,his body covered in wet black fur.He tried to move,but froze when he saw four small paws in front of him.He was a cat.Not just any black cat—a low-level cat demon inside a cultivation novel he had once read. A novel he never finished. Before Xu Yang can even process his new life,a cold voice suddenly sounds in his head. [System activated.] "...What?" [Host has been assigned nine lives.] Xu Yang blinks. [These lives are not blessings.] His smile disappears. "...What do you mean?" [Every life has a destined death.] "Excuse me?" [Death is mandatory.] Xu Yang stares into the distance. "Then why give me nine lives?!" [You may ask again after your first death.] "That's even worse!" And that's how Xu Yang discovers his new life comes with one very unfair condition: He is not allowed to live. Every life has a different path.Every death brings him closer to something he cannot yet understand.And every time he awakens again,the world changes in ways that shouldn't be possible. People forget him. Memories disappear. Events occur that were never written in the novel. Even the System begins behaving strangely. [Warning.] [Original storyline deviation detected.] "Can you fix it?" [No.] "Can you tell me what's happening?" [No.] "Then what are you useful for?" [Survival assistance.] "I'm starting to dislike you." [Acknowledged.] Unfortunately,the System is the least of Xu Yang's problems. The cultivation world is full of sects that hunt demons,immortals who hide their own secrets,and forces that seem to know more about his fate than he does. And somewhere along the way,Xu Yang realizes something is terribly wrong. His deaths aren't random. Someone or something is making sure each life ends exactly when it should.But fate makes one mistake.It leaves Xu Yang with the ability to choose what he does before he dies.So he starts changing things.One small choice then another.Until the story he once knew becomes unrecognizable. And the System gives him a final warning: [Host.] [You were never supposed to survive this long.] Xu Yang looks at the road ahead. "Then I guess Heaven should have written a better ending." Nine lives.Death is guaranteed. But Xu Yang has never been very good at following rules. First time writing fantasy story! Hope you enjoy:)

HP: Raven Goes To Hogwarts

In a world where magic hides behind ancient stone walls and whispered spells, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has stood for centuries as the greatest center of magical learning in Britain. Within its halls, students study charms, potions, and ancient magical traditions passed down through generations. But sometimes… something arrives that was never meant to belong to that world. Raven Cross is not an ordinary witch. She is not even from this universe. Born in a world of gods, demons, and heroes capable of shattering cities, Raven carries within her the bloodline of something far older and far darker than anything the wizarding world has ever faced. Her father is Trigon — a being whose name once brought entire dimensions to their knees. Yet Raven has no interest in conquering worlds. Instead, she finds herself in the strange and comparatively peaceful magical society of Britain, attending Hogwarts as an eleven-year-old student, pretending to be just another young witch trying to survive school. But Raven Cross does not do things the normal way. While other students learn simple spells and memorize textbooks, Raven is already uncovering secrets hidden beneath Hogwarts itself — secrets tied to ancient magic, forgotten gods, and powers that predate even the oldest wizarding traditions. She cultivates dangerous magical plants in secret greenhouses hidden within a magical ring. She studies forbidden spells that most witches and wizards would never dare attempt. And she prepares for dangers that the wizarding world doesn't even know exist. Because Raven knows something that no one else at Hogwarts understands. The threats facing Harry Potter are only the beginning. Ancient forces are stirring. Secrets buried beneath centuries of magical history are beginning to surface. And if Raven Cross is right… The wizarding world is far less safe than anyone believes. But that might not be such a bad thing. After all, Raven has never been afraid of monsters. She was raised by one.

Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill

Every hero starts with power. He started with dust. One moment, the classroom buzzed with teenage chatter. The next, silence fell. Students blinked—and opened their eyes in an ancient hall carved from gold and marble. The air shimmered with divine magic. And at its center stood a goddess—flawless, proud, unbelievably beautiful and wrapped in flowing white. It was a divine summoning performed by a divine goddess. Among them was Vritra… and his stunningly beautiful mother. While others received blessings, powerful physiques and grand titles, Vritra was given a skill so pathetic it made even the goddess wrinkle her nose. An ability—so pitifully weak that it drew laughter, scorn, and even disgust. But that wasn't the worst part. Betrayed and cornered inside the labyrinth, Vritra had two choices: die… or fall into the death trap. A death canopy with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the demons endlessly for months. Finally!! He forced his dormant skill to awaken, after killing thousands and hundreds of thousands demons and devouring them, becoming a broken ability. A dragon? A demon? What am I exactly? ****** White robes. Cold arrogance A sinful revenge. White robes can stain. And in the dark, even divinity can moan. And then there was his mo— guilt in her breath, shame in her eyes, whispering apologies between gasps in her son's ear, doing what had to be done… for both their sakes, giving birth to a morally wrong relation with him. ________________ Absolutely no NTR, none at all!!! No mother betrayal either!!! Discord: https://discord.gg/BUnnWjnWZw check out more- https://ko-fi.com/jin_moon Extra chapters based on response I receive, that's all for now, peace out!!

The Heavenly Training System: An Ordinary Disciple’s Second Life

Ethan Carter died at seventeen, his life stolen by MELAS syndrome. Abandoned by much of his family and confined to hospital beds, he spent his final years dreaming of the ordinary experiences he would never have: freedom, friendship, adventure, and the chance to truly live. But death brought him an unexpected second chance. Reincarnated as **Xu Qinghe**, an outer disciple of the Azure Moon Sect in the **Great Canglan Empire, Tianheng Continent**, Ethan discovers that his new life is hardly more promising than his old one. Xu Qinghe possessed a Mortal-Tier Spirit Root with a basic Water Affinity, making him one of the least talented disciples in the sect. His childhood companions, Ji Yuehan and Pei Zhaoyu, once promised to face the cultivation world alongside him. However, Ji Yuehan’s extraordinary Moonveil Celestial Physique made her a Saintess candidate, while Pei Zhaoyu’s Earth-Tier Spirit Root and rare Space Affinity earned him the attention of powerful masters. As their fortunes changed, both abandoned Xu Qinghe, leaving him to struggle alone for years. Desperate to reach the Middle Qi Refining stage, Xu Qinghe consumed an unstable pill and died from its effects—allowing Ethan to inherit his body and memories. Determined not to waste his second life, Ethan resolves to experience everything his first life denied him. His plans take an unexpected turn when he awakens the **Heavenly Training System**, an extraordinary tool capable of analyzing his training, correcting mistakes, refining techniques, and accelerating mastery through consistent effort. With sufficient understanding, he can even combine compatible techniques to create something greater than their original forms. His spiritual root remains ordinary, and the road ahead is anything but easy. Yet armed with patience, knowledge, and a system that rewards genuine effort, Ethan begins his journey from an insignificant outer disciple toward a future no one could have predicted. In a world where talent determines destiny, can an ordinary cultivator rewrite his fate? This time, Ethan doesn't want merely to survive. He wants to live.

Myriad Heavens: Rise of the Rune God

Myriad Heavens: Rise of the Rune God - Synopsis "I dodged Truck-kun with a parkour backflip. That should've been the end of it." After evading certain death with sick moves, genius programmer Runar thought he was safe—until the truck transformed into a freaking autobot and apologized for having to kill him anyway. "I just graduated from Truck Reincarnation Academy! I can't fail my first mission! My classmate will mock me." Now reborn on Telstra, a world where cultivation meets sci-fi, Runar discovers the ultimate cheat code: runes are the programming language of reality itself. While everyone else grinds through cultivation realms, he's copying physique runes, optimizing techniques, and debugging the universe. But in a cosmos where aliens hunt humans, ancient supremes have left for realms beyond, and power is everything—staying low-key might be harder than he thought. One day, he'll find that desperate truck and give it the beating it deserves. I CAN COPY TALENTS FROM MYSELF ACROSS THE MULTIVERSE - SYNOPSIS Ash awakened His Boundless Origin Martial Soul. It allowed him to break free from the space-time of his universe and resonate with infinite versions of himself across the multiverse. From those parallel selves, he could permanently copy any talent, skill, knowledge, or ability they possessed. No talent? Copy a supreme one. No skill? Copy it. Failing exams? Copy the knowledge of a scholarly genius. Stuck in cultivation? Copy the comprehension of a parallel self who already solved it. There are Various versions of himself out there. One was a peerless martial god who dominated the galaxy. One was a cold scientific monster who rewrote the laws of the world. One was a Taoist immortal who walked alone above the heavens. One was a carpenter who reached the peak through pure craft. One was a general who never lost a war. And this is just the tip of the iceberg of his Martial Soul abilty. In a world that measures everything by talent rank, Ash Apeiron starts at the very bottom. But with infinite versions of himself to draw from, the gap between him and everyone else is about to become irreversible. Martial Path (energy stored in the cells) 1. Body Refining Realm (Rank 1–9) 2. Martial Apprentice Realm 3. Martial Master Realm 4. Martial Grandmaster Realm 5. Martial King Realm 6. Martial Emperor Realm 7. Martial Sovereign Realm 8. Martial Saint Realm 9. Martial God Realm Beyond Martial God 10. Martial Void Realm 11. Martial Star Realm 12. Martial Cosmic Realm 13. Martial Multiverse God Realm Immortal Path (energy stored in the dantian) Same structure, simply replace "Martial" with "Immortal" (Immortal Apprentice → Immortal Multiverse God Realm). More Cultivation paths will be added in the future, like Mage path, Curse Path, Soul Path, Puppet Path. Also, I mainly write comprehension novels. I believe knowledge is power. So, most of my main characters in my novels are always book smart. Consider supporting me on https://ko-fi.com/sorion Or donating on Paypal to [email protected]. Don't send me weird emails

The dragon's harem

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!
