As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18 she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm, Everyone has a level, status and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good you can even become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters creatures and things that the regular world is missing such as magic. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it. ###############################

Set in the Shadow Slave world...a time before Sunny was born...this story follows a simple soldier who must survive in a dystopian, apocalyptic landscape where magic and gun warfare collide. In a far-off Quadrant known as North America, a young soldier named Hope is 16 years old when he gets infected by the Nightmare Spell. He passed! But...he feels a bit scammed...? A flaw that makes him fade from people's memories... A cursed attribute that makes him remember everything endlessly in eternal wakefulness... It's as if the Spell is twisting his future and existence into an almost improbable one. All he has ever known his purpose to be was to serve as a simple soldier. Not too powerful. But not so weak either. And maybe, just maybe like some others, become an Awakened. Although he never dreamt of being one. Now that his whole life is compromised after his First Nightmare, his first objective is to survive on his own. But as he tries to escape his fate, his actions seem to lead him further from his goal. He struggles against obstacles that slowly grow bigger and out of proportion. Maybe the Dream Realm and the Real World aren't so different than one may think. Hope's journey involves uncovering secrets and gaining knowledge about his true nature and his new role in the world. Is he fit to be a hero? Could he redefine it? *** Please read the READER DISCLAIMER in Volume 0. This is my spin-off novel of "Shadow Slave" by Guiltythree. But please don't expect the same writing style, setting, and characters, especially the main character. This story reveals more about how people/cities/governments operate after the Spell’s arrival. I always find it interesting how maybe one country handles it fairly, but how others handle it with desperation to the point that you question humanity. There will be easter eggs pointing to the original novel either intentional for the plot or unrelated to it, but all for fun. I am a new author so props to all who bear with me and helps me improve my writing. If it is not for you, please don't leave outright hate comments. Eat wassabi instead if you want pain. Critique and advice would be great too. Cover Art: @ellieaedon I will be posting on RoyalRoad.com and on AO3 for some people's preferences.

Oswin Thornwell is not a hero. He is a survivor. At seven years old, a catastrophic energy within him—the Primordial Essence—awakened and annihilated his entire city, including his parents. Branded an outcast and haunted by nightmares, Oswin drifts through life, trying to suppress the power that is both his curse and his only inheritance. But he is not alone. Nightmarish creatures known as Véracités are born from trauma like his, and a silent war is waged in the shadows to contain them and other menacing threats. It is in this bleak world that Aeron Gwyn, a master of the mysterious Kardeyn order, sees in Oswin not a threat, but a final hope. Under Aeron's relentless tutelage, Oswin begins to train, learning to wield his power and discovering that his pain could be the key to protecting others. However, the fragile peace maintained by the Kardeyns is beginning to shatter. Ancient forces, long dormant, are now stirring in the shadows. Their motives are inscrutable, their power unimaginable, and their mere presence begins to warp reality itself, threatening to unleash chaos upon the world. Caught between the monstrous Véracités and these emerging threats, Oswin must confront his own darkness and learn what it means to be human in a universe that seems intent on proving compassion is a weakness. Because if he fails, the world won't be conquered... it will simply be torn apart.

a multiversal world filling with elements and supernatural, action packed thrilling novel

No one could have imagined that Lauren, once a complete and grown young man, would end up trapped in the body of one of the many heroines in his own trashy erotic harem novel. At first, becoming Eleanor Mathioth — gifted, destined for greatness, and meant to rise to the highest levels — seemed like a decent deal. He could ignore the main protagonist and live far from the academy and all its problems. But the moment she took her first steps through the academy gate, a system notification appeared: [Solo Female Heroine System… Your mission: prevent the protagonist from forming a harem and make him choose a single heroine — you. Failure will result in soul annihilation. If you succeed, you will be returned to your previous world with enough wealth to live like a king for the rest of your life.] Then another warning followed: Warning: The soul inhabiting the protagonist has been replaced by an unknown intruder. But how… The only solution that appeared in Lauren’s mind at that moment was to make this new protagonist fall in love with her alone until the story ended completely. But nothing ever goes as planned… She didn’t know that the new protagonist was actually her former roommate — the extremely obsessive fan who adored Eleanor Mathioth above all others, rejected every girl who wasn’t her, and hated harems entirely. And for some ridiculous reason, on the first day of classes one of the heroines appeared in front of Milosh and said: “Excuse me… how about we go on a date?”

For centuries, the Crimson Dominion Empire has obeyed one sacred law: Every Emperor must take a Queen to rule beside him. But His Imperial Majesty, Lucien Alaric Thornton—the cold, feared, and ruthlessly powerful Vampire Emperor—has sworn never to love again. Not after losing Elisabetha, the only woman his immortal heart ever beat for. Her death torments his nights. Her memory shadows his throne. And Lucien is certain that someone within his own bloodline… played a role in her murder. To preserve political stability, Lucien is forced into an arranged marriage with Princess Samantha—a pampered, sheltered princess who has adored him since childhood. To the Empire, she is the perfect future Queen. To Lucien, she is nothing but duty. Everything changes the night he attends a forbidden slave auction. A trembling human girl is dragged into the light. Her name is Hazel… and she carries the exact face of Elisabetha. One heartbeat. One glance. And the Emperor buys her—shocking the entire Empire and shattering Princess Samantha’s lifelong dream. But Hazel’s presence awakens more than painful memories. Lucien keeps her close only because she resembles the woman he lost… yet without realizing it, he begins to fall for her—quietly, unwillingly, helplessly. Soon, everyone in the palace notices: the way he protects Hazel, the way he favors her, and the way he treats her with a care he never shows even to the future Empress. Princess Samantha sees it too— and the jealousy she has buried for years erupts into something dangerous, possessive, and deadly. Meanwhile, Lucien’s suspicions deepen. Hazel’s arrival stirs old shadows and forgotten truths… including the possibility that his own young stepsister, Princess Celeste, may have been involved in Elisabetha’s death. Thrown into a world of blood-stained politics, forbidden magic, ancient grudges, and royal conspiracies, Hazel soon realizes that her fate is intertwined with the Crimson Dominion in ways she never imagined. And Lucien—once heartless, once broken—finds himself torn between: The love he lost. The girl who carries dangerous secrets. And the future Queen he never wanted. In a world ruled by vengeance, power, and destiny… true love may be the most dangerous secret of all.

[Ding! A new item is in shop. Would you like to buy it?] [Ding! Collect Faith Points and become the strongest] When people are reborn in other worlds, they usually gain mysterious powers or a helper that guides them. But Cyrus Malcolm got none of them when he got my second chance at life. One day, after finishing his shift in the hospital (and getting fired for being too competent), he visited his favorite declining bookstore run by a mysterious old man who called himself the ‘God’ and the shopkeeper asked if Cyrus was interested in taking over his business. Cyrus smiled and jokingly told him that he was interested. The very next day when he woke up in his room, nothing looked the same outside his window. The only familiar thing in sight was the mysterious store he had taken over, with no one in sight. So he did the only sensible thing a person in his situation could do—he took it over to try and make some money and to run his business of providing therapy to people. Even if he was sometimes helped by powers beyond his knowledge, he was not going to question it. Thankfully, someone took pity on him and decided to give him a system that allowed him to purchase items not from his current time. But little did he know that the world he was currently in had changed from the one he knew, and all the clients he was about to get acquainted with were not ordinary beings. And it would result in him creating a cult…or two…or a few filled with supernatural creatures that worship his words as god while he remained clueless. ______ A lot of drama, tension and cults. The System will show up around ch 6...7. No Harem
