The Disfigured Phoenix Returns

"Oh, you have a dragon?" "Behold our fleet of Magic-powered Z-64 Raptors and Z-92 Lightning. Before your dragon breathes the flames, we will shoot it down to the ground." * "You have a 500ft Golem with powerful fists?" "Behold our Magic-powered Nexus Missile Defense Systems. Before your Golem takes another step, we will shoot it to pieces from 500 kilometers away." * "You have hundreds of thousands of soldiers to fight for you?" "Sorry, but they aren't a match for my army of robots, who could never betray me." * "So, you think you have a celestial being on your side?" "Sorry, fella, even your gods are made of matter. Behold our prototype Anti-matter Cannon, that annihilates everything in its path... even the celestial you are depending on." * In a world ruled by swords, magic, and noble power, Kiara opens a shop. To outsiders, it looks ordinary. Inside, however, she sells things this world should never have seen. Firearms. Ammunition. Weapons capable of changing the outcome of wars. But the woman running this shop is not truly from this world. After dying in the modern era as a weapon designer due to a betrayal from her comrades, her soul transmigrates into the abandoned daughter of an Emperor and Queen Consort. Cast aside since birth due to the lack of a spirit core, she grew up far from the palace that should have been her home. Now guided by a mysterious, sassy weapons system, she begins her journey as a weapons seller. What starts as simple transactions soon attracts powerful nobles, military factions, and secret organizations desperate to obtain the terrifying technology she controls. As her influence grows, men gather around her. An Android who develops romantic feelings for her. A nobleman with a gentle soul who becomes her true love. A possessive mythical demon king who constantly woos her. A Commander who looks like her first love from the other world. A prince who wishes to give her the entire kingdom just to be with her. However, romance is the least of her interests. Accomplishing her goals is her priority. Anything else is secondary. She has but three primary goals. First, Revenge against her mother, who abandoned her as a baby. Second, Making Firearms the most used weapon And third, find a way back home and settle the score with her comrades and superiors who betrayed her. To accomplish these goals, she will put a fake smile on her face, she will help her enemies, she leads men into giving them false hope of romance, and she destroys everything in her path without a hint of mercy. This is the legend of Kiara, the Phoenix that was reborn from the ashes of revenge. **** Upload rate: minimum 28 chapters/week.

Intimidation Knight

The Order of Saint Merin ended with him. Not because it fell in a final stand—there was nothing left worth defending. The knights had been broken long before the last blade was raised, and he was the worst among them. Sir Henry Hildebraud of Mostenstein, the final knight, standing at the edge of his own grave. Magic ruled the world, and Henry possessed none of it. Against sorcerers who could reshape battlefields with a gesture, steel and training were meaningless. A sword did not argue with fire. A shield did not stop lightning. He was going to die, and he knew it. Then something absurd happened. A blow to the head—pure chance, pure stupidity—triggered a system. Not strength. Not speed. Not even magic. A single trait was amplified beyond reason: intimidation. He did not become more powerful. He simply became terrifying. Worse still, he had no control over it. Every sentence he spoke sounded like a threat of massacre. Casual conversation carried the weight of a war crime. Diplomacy became impossible. Silence was suspicious. Speaking was catastrophic. With no other options, Henry did the only thing he could to survive: he allowed the world to believe he was a monster far stronger than he truly was. Somewhere along this unfolding disaster, fate decided to complicate things further—or perhaps offer salvation—by pushing him toward a woman said to know how the Order could be restored and how he might rise above the farce he was living. The problem? Everyone agreed on one thing about her. She was completely unhinged.

The Mech Touch

After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer. Helped by his missing father, Ves has obtained the mysterious Mech Designer System that can help him rise in the galaxy and beyond. His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits. This is the golden age of mechs. This is the golden age of humanity. The question is, will it last?

All of my chapters are written and proofread directly by me for many years. The only automated tool that I have used is the basic spellchecker that comes standard with the Google Docs application. I have not changed my approach towards writing chapters for The Mech Touch even as technology has advanced and introduced new tools. I will continue to maintain my current approach for this webnovel until it has come to an end.
