In the year 2086, humanity stood at the peak of technological advancement. The world’s greatest nations united under Project Helios—an ambitious experiment created to generate limitless energy by manipulating space and dark matter. But on the night the Helios Reactor was activated for the very first time, the sky above the Pacific Ocean cracked apart like shattered glass. A colossal purple rift opened across the heavens, pulsing like the heartbeat of a wounded world. Then, they came. Creatures from ancient legends. A golden-scaled beast with wings like thunder roared above the sea. Stone giants walked through collapsing cities. Women with raven wings descended alongside black storms. Horned beasts from forgotten myths began roaming the human world. Nuclear weapons were launched. Armies marched. Entire nations burned. Yet the war between modern technology and the world of mythology brought nothing but endless destruction. Until a being calling himself The Ancient One appeared with a proposal: Twelve battles. Twelve representatives. And the fate of two civilizations would be decided within the arena. Arrows against gunpowder. Muscle against steel. Magic against science.

Kiro's dream was simple: become the richest man in the world and never go hungry again. The cosmic Cube that chose him had other plans.

To survive, he must expose the rot at the heart of civilization. To thrive, he must build something new in its place. From the run-down fight pits to the highest tiers of sky-borne society, Kiro will explore a broken world, uncover ancient secrets, and turn his ragtag crew into the core of a new empire. He started with nothing but a dream and a knife. He’ll end with a city under his command and the world at his feet. Also available on royalroad. support - coffe https://ko-fi.com/andrecoller

Tao Hua's life is fucking miserable, and that misery somehow earns him the title of "Village Disgrace." In order to cope with the awful treatment, he often retreats into words untold, dictated by the flip of a page. These worlds leave him with the dream of escaping this piece of shit town. To his utter dismay, his wish comes true, but not in the way all those fairytales promised. His saviour is a man he becomes enthralled with and whom he names “Lord No-Name.” This male lead is a touchy man with many faces. And for lack of a better word, Tao Hua can’t decide if he’s either the story’s love interest or villain. But the two share a common sentiment. This prince, alike Tao Hua, is also fucking miserable. But arguably worse! And instead of coping like a normal fucking person, he does the opposite. He doesn't escape. He doesn't cope. He just tries to fight against the already fated truth of his demise. 0/10, worst prince ever written. Misery aside, this fateful encounter will force Tao Hua to make a choice, leaving him with only one question: "What was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despise a beauty's entire existence?" ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses are beautiful, and upon closer observation they’re less floral than once thought. It follows the POV of Tao Hua, as he tries to navigate his new life in a place that actually values him, and the prince of this story’s mood swings. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!!Disclaimer!!!! EXTREMELY SLOW PACED! Character driven, before plot! This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic and self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. It often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. A lot of the work will be edited over time, but the bones will remain the same. ──── ୨୧ ──── There are occasional illustrations littered throughout the novel drawn by me (slowly commissioning to get others done), usually found in the comments! !!CREDIT!! Cover Art by @Sayoto (VGen) Illustrations by me (@meowssey) and zaza (@zazhah) (Both commissioned artists are amazing to work with and I highly recommend their work!)

In a huge, black mansion lived a mysterious yet dangerous man—Lucca Knight. No one dared to get close to him, for his power had overthrown many enemies.

With zero knowledge of the Naruto universe, Linto is suddenly reincarnated into Konoha as an Uchiha—on the very night of the clan's massacre. Luckily for him, he arrives equipped with a JOJO Stand System. Taijutsu fight? Summon Star Platinum! Long-range battle? Call Weather Report! Need for speed? Activate Made in Heaven! One by one, powerful Stands manifest behind him. But as his power grows, so does the list of people who want him dead. Itachi Uchiha wants him eliminated. Danzo wants him for experimentation. Obito wants him silenced. Even Madara Uchiha sees him as a threat. Linto soon realizes his enemies aren't just a few individuals—it's the entire twisted, cannibalistic world he's landed in. "If you refuse to be a master of power," Obito tells him, "you are doomed to be its slave. That is the immutable rule of the ninja world." "But just because a rule exists, does that make it right?" Linto makes his choice: "If this world is broken, then I will shatter it and build a new one." His goal is simple: to make people live like human beings.

Waking up in a new body is disorienting. Waking up as Hermione Granger—the brightest witch of her age—is a surprise.

Tony Stark: "J.A.R.V.I.S., it's time to design the Anti-Wizard Armor." Hermione: (smirks) "You mean the scrap metal that breaks the second you put it on?" Hulk: "HULK SMASH!" Hermione: (raises wand) "Shut it, green guy, or I'll cast Expelliarmus on your pants!" The Ancient One: "You are an anomaly. A sorcerer who does not belong on this timeline..." Hermione: "Let me correct you, baldy. I am a Wizard." Nick Fury: (eye twitching) "Where exactly are you from?" Hermione: (adjusts robes innocently) "Me? I'm just a simple exchange student from Hogwarts."
