In the middle of a deserted island, a small boy wakes up with two sets of memories: one from his few years of life and the other from a man who lived to adulthood and achieved great things. When he least expected it, a powerful master appeared on the island and took him in as a disciple, revealing a shocking fact: magic exists in that world, and, thanks to it, humanity managed to conquer the galaxy.

"I only harnessed a little bit of her yin energy, why is everyone trying to kill me?" Lee Tao cried aloud. ===================== Do you know what is the correct method to cultivate? Normal, old boring cultivation in a lotus position? Dual Cultivation with a jade beauty? Consuming alchemy pills to cultivate? If you had chosen any of the above, you’re wrong. It's none of those. The correct method is obviously to harness the cultivation of others for yourself. Why work hard when you can work smart?

"Is Fate the excuse of the forsaken, is Free Will the delusion of the chosen?" Such was a question that Xavier, the Demon King, never had the chance to ask himself. As he lay defeated, awaiting his death, he wondered about the wretched life he lived. 'The hero who killed me, the one who held the same ambitions as me. We both wanted good for the people, for the world. We are both two sides of the same coin, yet, fate decided that he will be the one the light will shine on. Perhaps it was me too, perhaps it was my karma for flowing the rivers of blood with my sword. But still... It was fate that squashed the humanity in me first! Damn fate, if I had one more chance, I would've lived for myself more, I wouldn't have taken this arbitrary role of being a necessary evil... This world, this game of destiny... It can burn to ashes for all I care.' As he sunk into the cold embrace of death, a certain [REDACTED] heard his dying wish with amusement and cast their die, reversing the wheel of time one last time and going all in on him on a risky gamble with the stakes of their world. ************** Discord Server (fixed): https://discord.gg/rZhT6zdp2f Author is on a break, exams are coming soon.

As the Nine Dragons Syndicate tightens its grip on Southeast Asia, a new and enigmatic leader emerges from the shadows. Known only as The Jade Dragon, this figure is unlike any of the original nine—an outsider whose ambitions threaten not only the region but the very balance of power within the syndicate itself. The Jade Dragon's rise sparks internal discord, pitting the nine original leaders against one another in a high-stakes struggle for dominance. Amid this chaos, Felix, a former enforcer turned reluctant ally, leads a team of unlikely heroes in uncovering the syndicate's long-buried secrets. Their investigation reveals a chilling truth: the Jade Dragon is linked to the very origins of the syndicate, holding the key to its rise—and potentially its fall. As the team dives deeper, they discover that the Jade Dragon’s plans extend beyond crime and corruption. Harnessing ancient curses and cutting-edge biotechnology, this new leader aims to unleash an environmental catastrophe that could reshape the region’s resources for their control. David, still grappling with the power and burden of the Dragon Crown, must confront the haunting visions it brings, which are tied to the Jade Dragon’s dark legacy. Mayang, whose plant-based abilities are fading, must rediscover her connection to nature to counteract the syndicate's devastating environmental damage. Clarissa, driven by personal loss, infiltrates the syndicate's fractured inner circle to exploit their infighting. Thalia, with her psychic connection to Southeast Asia's ancient spiritual roots, begins to see visions of a greater threat—a prophecy of the “Tenth Dragon” who will bring either salvation or destruction. The stakes rise as the syndicate unravels from within. The Jade Dragon manipulates the chaos, forcing old alliances to shatter and new alliances to form. Trust is a fragile commodity among the team, especially when Felix's shadowed past resurfaces, and his loyalty is questioned. Even more dangerous

_ _ _ He only sought to leave a legacy behind because he was set to die by twenty-five years old. Becoming a blood drinking monster was not in his plans. But his plans derailed when his grandfather got him with one of his pranks even after he had been dead for one year already. And now, he found tied to someone else, a woman who, upon their first ‘meeting’, tied him to a chair, and threatened him. If only he knew. He didn't care about fate, but fate did care about him. And that fate would bring out his heritage, and determine if he would live, and build his legacy into something bigger, or really die, after taking the first step. _ _ _ The unavoidable pyre is the one built from desires, so always be prepared to burn. . . . Their first meeting? She broke into his apartment and tied him to a chair. Of course she got what she wanted, but not the last laugh, ending up tied to him in what could only be called a forced engagement. After all, only if she was his other half should she share his misfortune with him, just like the red string is forcing her, right? Shackles, heirship, legacy… and life. Some to be fought, others to be fought for, because maybe he didn't know, or maybe he did, that the last misfortune was coming for him, even though he… never drank blood, or precisely because he never did. Two sides of the same coin. Fighting together was not a choice anymore. And in the eyes of their entangled fate, it might never have been, actually, since the very beginning. . . . "Grandp- Grandpa, you have screwed me over." "Of course not." "But-" "No but. You are my favorite grandson, how can I not want what is best for you?" "You tied me with the woman who tortured me and most probably planned to kill me! And you say that is the best for me?" "Oh, don't overdramatize things, grandson. We both know you just played along." "..." "Anyway, the red string has already been tied. There is nothing that can be done anymore." "Gramps-" "Shuuut, go away. I'm already dead, stop bothering me." "Gramps-" "There, there... Go, fate is waiting for you." "Arghhh... Damn you, old man!!!" "Hehehe... You will thank me later." "ARGHHHHH!!! DAMN YOU!!!" Follow me on discord. https://discord.gg/C86EJvCJdd

[UNDER MAJOR EDITING] Ever since I was a child, I can see the strings. Strings that connect us to other people. Strings that reveal what we feel towards others. Strings that can change it's color. From Red to Black. Just like love, that can turn into hatred. From White to Black. Just like friendships, that can turn into betrayal. Alice Jade Martinez is an 18-year-old girl possessing the ability to see the fated strings. Working as a matchmaker, she bonds people to their fated partner. But as nice as it sounds, her gift comes with a curse. She's forbidden to fall in love. If she does, the string's curse will activate and instantly kill that person... She fell in love once. And he died. That's why she swears she'll never fall in love again. A novel with overbearing characters. A series of love stories bonded by the fated string. This is a story about a girl who can't fall in love. And a boy who can't feel anything.

Kael disparaît une nuit sans explication. Il se réveille face à une vérité que des entités cosmiques avaient scellée depuis des millénaires, afin que les humains n’y aient jamais accès. Dans un monde privé de magia, quatre Temples anciens dorment encore… et l’un d’eux réagit étrangement à la présence de Kael. Son arrivée déclenche une chaîne d’événements qu’aucun mortel n’était censé provoquer : un mécanisme oublié, une prophétie étouffée, et surtout le début d’un Test destiné à juger les êtres de cette jeune planète. Écho après Écho, Kael se retrouve confronté à des épreuves aux côtés d’autres humains, dont le but réel est de déterminer s’ils possèdent — ou non — les qualifications nécessaires pour s’ouvrir aux autres mondes. Il n’est pas un héros. Il n’était pas prévu. Mais quelque chose, dans les profondeurs, semble l’avoir toujours attendu. Echo of the Past est une dark fantasy lente et méticuleuse, où chaque Écho compte et où rien n’est précipité. Et derrière ces épreuves s’étend un chemin où un monde titanesque et sans fin vous attend.

From my childhood, I was living a mixed life. Was I blessed or was I cursed? I had a contrary view over my life. But I was never alone despite everyone around me abandoning me. Another voice was echoing through me, telling me to not be afraid. At one point, I almost succumbed into a life under the shadow, but someone eventually pulled me out of it and placed me under the spotlight. I thought I was freed forever, but the Echo told me that I was wrong. And it was all proven true on the day I discovered the true face of my beloved, who cheated on me without any shame. That day, I felt my world breaking apart. We were always together, I thought we would be together forever. Like some sort of beautiful fantasy. Silly, yet warm. Somewhere I could escape to. A home. It wasn't too much. But somehow, it all started that day. Or did it start before it? I don't remember. My memories are failing me. He told me I shouldn't stay. He told me I'll only get hurt no matter how I try to please him. He did not lie… Then, why did it hurt so much? Maybe because I truly loved him, seeing him with another had me broken to pieces. It wasn't fun, but… It wasn't the worst. That day, I finally decided. ‘Leave.’ It was as if a trigger had been pulled, and my life moved again in a hectic direction. I've met people I thought I won't be meeting again, and was stranded between so many fights of interests. I could only fight for myself there. This time, not only the Echo was with me. Another person was there, supporting me unconditionally. Giving me the confidence to move. Still, I will forever wonder… What choice is the right one? I guess I'll never know until I reach my destination.

Kael vanishes one night without explanation. He wakes to a truth that cosmic entities sealed away millennia ago, ensuring no human would ever reach it. In a world devoid of magia, four ancient Temples still lie dormant… and one of them reacts in a way only Kael can trigger. His arrival sets off a chain of events no mortal was ever meant to ignite: a forgotten mechanism, a smothered prophecy, and the beginning of a Test designed to judge the inhabitants of this young planet. Echo after Echo, Kael is forced to face trials alongside other humans — trials meant to determine whether they possess the qualifications to open their world to others. He is no hero. He was never meant to be chosen. But something in the depths seems to have been waiting for him all along. Echo of the Past is a slow-burn dark fantasy, where every Echo matters and nothing is rushed. And beyond these trials lies a path where a titanic, endless world awaits you.
