Gifted

Most people don't remember being born. Sebastian remembers dying first. Reborn with his memories somewhat intact and a stolen demon's power tangled into his soul, he's given something rarer than any starting class: time. Time to test his limits before he can walk. Time to reverse-engineer a hidden system no one will explain to him. Time to learn exactly how much of himself he can afford to reveal, and to who. Growing up at a mountain outpost on the edge of nowhere, raised by a disgraced mage and the mother who saved him from a cult's altar, Bastian has every reason to keep his Status a secret. But the numbers don't lie, and neither does the thing he absorbed in the womb. Somewhere in the dark, it's still hungry. And it isn't the only thing watching him grow. Gifted: First Steps — some paths begin before you can walk.

Gaia's Second Champion

Pulled from the River of Souls by a goddess, I’m given a choice: become her champion and defeat the enemy, or cease to exist. A second chance at life. Sounds simple, right? Yeah—no. The goddess is hiding something. The power I asked for? Not what she gave me. It was supposed to save my life, now it takes them. Yeah, that’s going to have consequences. My first friend? A Fae creature with secrets she’s too stubborn to tell, burdened by a past she regrets, and a punishment keeping her trapped between who she is, and who she used to be. Together we’ll fight, survive, and perhaps change things, and one another, if we live long enough. As we travel a world that doesn’t trust champions or Fae, the truth about the goddess’ struggle begins to unravel. I wasn’t brought here to save this world. I was brought here for something else entirely. This is an isekai romantasy, a tale about second chances and forgiveness, found family and the bonds that keep people together. It’s also about a fish out of water MC stumbling his way from one potential disaster to the next and the FMC who fights at his side. WHAT TO EXPECT : NO harem A romance integral to the plot Spice, mild to heavy, beginning in Vol 2 2 POVs Dialogue heavy, with fun banter Pulpy-style prose Updates M/W/F, large backlog, 60k+ new words/month.

Across this vast realm, adventurers, warriors, and gods pursue their own ambitions, unaware of how far the god-king's influence will eventually reach. Can even a god, crowned by worship and forged in tyranny, hold on to such power indefinitely? Or will someone rise against him, bringing about a downfall as inevitable as it is unforeseen? In a world where gods can die, only one can remain—but for how long? Cover art by Little-Moon on Scribblehub.

Eternal Dreaming Zen

Two years ago, humanity launched a spacecraft to study the mysterious barrier enclosing the Earth and Sun. The mission ended in disaster. The spacecraft struck the barrier and exploded, leaving behind a crack. Something seeped through. It called itself Zen. As Zen spread across the world, humanity awakened strange powers. Some gained abilities beyond imagination. Others gained only enough strength to survive another day. But Zen wasn't the greatest disaster. People began to vanish. Without warning. Without a trace. The phenomenon became known as the Disappearance Effect. It comes in cycles. Each time it returns, it grows stronger. Each cycle leaves fewer survivors behind. Under a starless sky and in a world racing toward its doom, seventeen-year-old Riven Stirenok struggles to survive. Smart, cunning, and reckless enough to attempt things no sane person would ever consider, Riven repeatedly throws himself into impossible situations just to stay alive. Even he doesn't understand his own mind. Or the strange ability awakening within him. As the world grows stranger with every passing day, hidden truths begin to surface about Zen, the barrier, the disappearances, and the fate awaiting humanity. The end is approaching. [I have finished writing and uploading the first volume "The Apocalypse". So you can read it if you are interested since the first volume itself has separate completeness to it. And I will be active on the platform, will make sure to complete this story which will probably span over multiple volumes. Currently taking a break cuz I got tired(yk the studies and all). Don't worry this is going to be my new hobby. I will keep on writing. Just for fun.] (Also this is not Ai generated, I made this myself, wrote it on paper and then typed it down on Google docs. Well I will be honest about one thing, I did use Ai for correcting grammer and stuff. Like after writing draft of a chapter I will upload it some Ai, then it will give me suggestions on sentence level po
