Truth Beyond the Veil

Three close friends find their lives turned upside down after awakening from a strange event, and they receive powers they can’t explain. With these newfound abilities, they begin exploring the world, visiting places they never thought they would see. But the more they venture, the more they realize: the world isn’t what it seems. As they encounter ancient ruins, strange creatures, and forgotten remnants of a world long past, one truth becomes clear—they were never meant to stay on Earth. Driven by a need to uncover the origin of their powers and a way back to their home, they stumble upon secrets far greater than anything they could have imagined. This is a story of friendship, awakening, and a journey that spans far more than just one world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, I’m DarkCosmos, a first-time author writing for the love of the craft.

Echoes of the Silent Sky

Year 2147. The Sun stops—not dead, not dimmed, but *paused*. Fusion ceases for 11 minutes and 43 seconds every 72 hours. A silence with a pattern. A signal. Astrophysicist Dr. Ella Vayne decodes the sun's tremors and discovers the frequency matches human brain theta waves. Not coincidence. Something is broadcasting to Earth—or waking something *in* Earth. Recruited into a black-ops mission, Ella and ex-special forces operative Kasen Reed are sent to a remote Martian research base. The scientists there report footsteps in the dead of the base—footsteps that echo from 300 meters below, where satellite scans show only empty rock. What they find buried beneath Mars isn't a ship. It's a **memory vessel**—a relic built by a civilization that encoded its final moments into a structure that responds to human neural patterns. And Ella's brainwaves? They sync perfectly with the sun's silence. They always have. She wasn't chosen. She was *made* for this. But someone on Earth is building a tower—a transmitter. They don't want to receive the signal. They want to **reply**. The question isn't who sent the silence. It's who—or what—will answer back.

Project Euthanasia

Euthanasia. Quite the... macabre, but merciful concept. The idea that it is better to "die with grace" than to fight to delay the agonising inevitable, to give the suffering a way out without shame, pain, fear... To kindly lead them towards... peace. But how do you apply that to someone whose existence is as certain as the universe itself? To a “god”? ... Step 1: Orchestrate a genocide.

Author's World [Transmigration, Magic, Author in His Own Novel]

I was just your average author, who struck gold during the pandemic with the debut of my novel "Fever War". But I made a mistake! "I made a bet." Dropped into a withering dystopia. A reimagined version of Earth after COVID-19, where some patients began gaining supernatural powers and magic. The future of humanity had changed forever. Wars were fought not solely with military technology, but supernatural soldiers fighting against each other. And then they came, aliens from the other world. And they were far better at using magic than all of humanity. War against aliens was not as simple as it seemed. Governments, secret cults, & ancient families all want one thing—Control. But I will control my own fate, I will ▮▮▮▮ this place and ▮▮▮▮. How? Because I wrote this story—I am this World's Author. --- What to expect: - No OP protagonist. As it takes time and training to become strong together with a very unique power system. This is the author falling into his novel trope, but with a twist. - No Harem, set in a futuristic 22nd century Earth filled with advanced technology and magic. - The beginning is slow as I am still developing my writing style. I am power-system enthusiast (Not LITRPG, but hard and logical magic system) kind of an author. So, please bear with me. --- This story is also available on RoyalRoad, ScribbleHub and Webnovel.

The Advent of the Soul Tree

What if you died a nobody and woke up as a tree? Dendron died a nobody. He quit jobs, avoided conflict, and spent his days doing the bare minimum. When a truck ends his unremarkable existence, he expects nothing at all. Instead, he wakes up as a tree: rooted, immobile, and monumentally alone. In a forest teeming with monsters, cultivators, and beast tribes, Dendron discovers he's been given a second chance, and a LitRPG system to go with it. He can absorb soul cores, grow spiritual fruit, and even parasitize other creatures to build a network of avatars. Soon, he builds a network of wolves, apes, and allies who see him as a mysterious merchant, a powerful tree, or even a god. But being surrounded isn't the same as being understood. He is a reincarnator in a world that doesn't know his past. A tree in a forest of beasts. A creature in a world that fears anything it can't name. And something put him here on purpose. Whatever put him here has plans for him, and they may be far more terrifying than being a tree. "A truck hit me five minutes ago, and now I'm a fucking tree?" A LitRPG cultivation fantasy about growth, loneliness, and the quiet horror of becoming something you never planned to be. If you enjoy slow-burn mysteries, hidden organizations, ancient beings, layered worldbuilding, and gradually uncovering the true nature of a world, you may find something to enjoy here. Author's note: This novel is also officially published by me on Royalroad under the username Bryrawr.

Warm My Bed, Brother-in-law

“Spread your legs for me until your husband wakes up.” I barely have time to breathe before I’m pressed against the office door. His fist tightens in my hair, and his other hand hikes my skirt up without hesitation, like this was always going to happen. His lips hover at my ear, his voice quiet and deadly. “Six months, Elena,” Damian murmurs, knuckles brushing the inside of my thigh. “For six months, my brother will get your name, and I get your body. Fair, isn’t it?” I should push him away. I should scream until someone hears me. I should be thinking about my husband lying in a hospital bed, machines breathing for him. Instead, my fingers clutch my husband’s brother’s shirt, and I hate that my body responds before my mouth can find the word no. Because in a world built on blood and betrayal, the only man who’s ever looked at me like I was more than a decoration is my husband’s much younger brother. I’m Elena Vitale, 38, wife of a powerful mafia boss now clinging to life in a coma and somehow, I'm the one left holding an empire I never wanted. And the only person ruthless enough to help me hold it together is Damian Vitale. At 26, he’s the black sheep of the family… an exiled hacker who built his own ruthless syndicate from nothing but resentment, genius, and an obsession with me that began when he was nineteen. Our deal is brutally simple. He’ll protect my husband’s empire. He’ll hunt the traitor who put a bullet in his brother’s chest. And in exchange, I’ll give the devil everything he’s craved for years. My body. My surrender. My soul… until the day my husband opens his eyes.
