In a quiet town in Japan, a lonely boy named Aoi notices a strange daily phenomenon: Every evening at exactly 4:14 PM, a sudden howl of wind passes through the town. During that moment, he meets Naomi, a gentle girl who seems connected to the wind. As they begin to spend time together, Aoi realizes something unsettling that no one else seems to remember her, and her presence fades with the wind itself. As their bond grows, Aoi discovers that Naomi may not fully belong to the present… and that their time together is slowly running out. In a story about fleeting connections and quiet love, Aoi must learn whether holding on is worth more than letting go.

In the year 2221, the world of Xirod stands under the control of a powerful Federation that lets the government value obedience over individuality. Its citizens are identified by numbers rather than names, while propaganda convinces them that everyone possesses the same “essence.” Beneath the promise of order and prosperity, however, corruption, inequality, environmental destruction, and a failing education system threaten the lives of ordinary people. For years, the speaker accepts this reality as normal—until growing alienation and unanswered questions begin to challenge everything they have been taught to believe. As the contradictions behind the Federation's promises become impossible to ignore, the narrator discovers that silence does not necessarily mean agreement, and obedience does not always mean peace. What begins as one person's quiet awakening gradually inspires others to question the system they once feared. As citizens confront the truth and those entrusted with maintaining order face their own moral dilemmas, Xirod approaches a turning point that could change its future forever. Essence is a dystopian story about identity, freedom, and the courage to question what has long been accepted as truth. Through the transformation of individuals and an entire society, it explores metanoia—a profound change in one's mind and perspective—and asks what it truly means to be human.

Armed with a gun he doesn't know how to use, a crippling case of arachnophobia, and the help of a ragtag group of survivors (including one who definitely wants to kill them all to protect the government's secrets), Dr. Gale must find a way to escape the facility before nightfall. Because once the sun goes down, the giant spiders come out to hunt. All of them. Welcome to Arachnoextinction.

There is a layer to this story that cannot be reached through the surface plot alone. Clues have been deliberately woven throughout the story for the author and readers to uncover together. Everything needed to reach it should already exist in the knowledge and tools we possess, yet it has not fallen into anyone’s hands—not yet. As you read on, the story quietly waits for someone to notice. *** DEVOUR. The ordinary. The reality. The world. Despair, hope, good and evil—none are permitted. The prophecy is fulfilled here. Soon, the world will lose everything. And the man who once saved it has already lost himself. *** The boundary between illusion and reality had long since ceased to exist. In the year 20XX, without warning or precedent, Monsters emerged — consuming cities, devouring lives, swallowing the world’s last reserves of hope whole. And then, when humanity had nearly surrendered to despair, a Savior appeared. What awaited him was a death sentence — the charge: high treason against the state. Stripped of everything that had ever made him himself, he was cast into a cold and indifferent sea. Yet even there, sinking through the abyss, a light found him — the luminance of a Goddess, merging with what remained of his shattered soul. Darkness coiled around him like a living thing, its tendrils hungry and absolute. And still, against all reason, he was pulled back to the surface. He returned with nothing. No past. No name. No self. They gave him a new one — Ariwara Yūki — and with it, a second life stitched together from silence and borrowed time. Beside him walked Sano Amana, the girl who would become his anchor, and for a while, the two of them knew something that almost resembled ordinary days. Then the Monsters came back. They always come back. As his own memories continue to bleed away, Yūki pursues the vanishing silhouette of Amana — drawn ever deeper into a storm where government conspiracies and the ambitions of shadowed factions grind against each other like tectonic plates. He was once the Savior of this world. Now he has nothing. So what, exactly, can a man with nothing left — do? *** Comedy / Ecchi / Fantasy / Harem / Horror / Mature / Mystery / Romance / School Life / Sci-fi / Slice of Life / Supernatural / Tragedy From Japanese Full-length light novel This translation is provided by the author.

It was supposed to be harmless. A joke. A prank. Something they could all laugh about later. Six friends walked toward the old lake at the edge of town, carrying snacks, secrets… and a plan that should have never existed. Billy trusted them. He trusted her most of all. But the moment the water touched him, everything went wrong. The laughter didn’t last. The screams did. Something beneath the surface answered him—fast, sharp, and hungry. Not one bite. Not one mistake. A swarm. By the time they pulled him out, the lake had already taken its share. And what remained… wasn’t something you could forget. Now the group is left with silence. With guilt. With a truth none of them are willing to speak out loud. Because the real horror isn’t just what was in the water. It’s knowing— Someone planned this. And no one stopped it. Some secrets sink. Others stay with you… long after the blood washes away.

Ten years have passed… but the lake never forgot. What happened that day was buried—silenced by fear, guilt, and lies no one dared to speak out loud. The survivors moved on… or at least, they tried to. But every Halloween, the past returns. Names begin to appear. People begin to die. And the truth… begins to surface. Something is calling from the lake. Not just a memory. Not just a legend. Something alive. Something patient. The whispers grow louder each year—echoing through churches, streets, and dreams. A name repeated over and over like a curse that refuses to fade: Billy. The deeper they look, the clearer it becomes—this isn’t random. This isn’t coincidence. This is something that was never meant to survive. And now… It’s rising. The lake doesn’t just take. It remembers. It marks. It comes back for what it’s owed. And this time— It’s stronger.

Llew’s father disappeared when she was eleven, leaving her orphaned, as far as she knew. Since then, Llew has learned to survive the streets of the gold-mining town of Cheer – full of opportunistic men and desperation. It’s a hard existence made tougher when Llew's so-called friend accuses her of murder, sending her to the gallows. Llew’s Aenuk ability to absorb life means she doesn’t stay dead for long, but she does leave a trail of death behind her. Escaping the hangman’s noose sees Llew fall into the hands of Jonas: the man with the knife and the Karan power to kill Llew’s kind. If Llew can nurture the attraction he develops for her, maybe she can keep that knife from her heart. But lurking in the shadows is Jonas’s half-brother, Braph: the man who has learned to combine Aenuk and Karan powers into infinite and addictive magical potential. Healer's Touch is a fantasy novel flavoured with a wild west setting, steampunk-like technology, enough romance to draw you in, horror to keep you hooked, and just enough sex to keep things spicy. The Deadly Touch Series: Healer's Touch Warrior's Touch Magician's Touch *May count as Romantasy, but the spice is pretty middling. Goes into dark themes, including torture & rape, but never between the main couple. The first chapters are brutal, but I had to start Llew off somewhere …
