Foolan

Foolan was hired to make a room full of strangers laugh. He should have asked why they were mourning someone who hadn’t died. A concealed painting, an empty chair, and one careless joke leave him trapped inside an artwork with a missing man beneath the table. In this world, original paintings can be entered. Those who survive and comprehend their meaning return with power. The first successful comprehender claims its strongest form. Everyone afterward receives a weaker echo. Some return changed in ways nobody knows how to repair. Foolan wants to get out, collect his fee, and discover who decided his life was worth twelve marks. His search leads through disputed collections, dangerous expeditions, and a trade in weapons extracted from artworks. The Feathers have a place in that trade. They also have reasons to keep certain disappearances unexplained. One of their recruiters offers Foolan help. He sees through the jokes with an accuracy Foolan finds difficult to refuse. For once, someone understands him. Foolan has yet to learn what that will cost.

A Million Lifetimes to Say Goodbye

A million deaths. A million worlds. One million years too late. Alex was the Dragonslayer—until his final, catastrophic duel against the Godslayer ended in mutual destruction. Desperate to return home, Alex triggered an incomplete reincarnation formula. Instead of a simple rebirth, his soul was shattered across the multiverse. He died a million times across a million different realities: as a cultivator, a warlord, a beggar, and a beast. With every death, his combat instincts sharpened, his martial reflexes deepened, and his obsession grew. Now, on his millionth rebirth, the formula finally spits him back where it all began—his original home world. There are only two problems: 1. A freak incident as an infant locked away the active memories of his past lives, leaving only instinct, muscle memory, and an unyielding drive for power. 2. One million years have passed since he fell. Starting from the absolute bottom at Tier 0, Alex must take up twin blades and flame once more. He doesn't care about saving the world or playing the hero. He is climbing back to the pinnacle of power to settle an ancient score with the Godslayer—and find the soul of the woman he left behind. What to Expect: Progression: Tier 0 to Tier 6 progression system with earned, tactical growth (Dual Blades & Fire Magic). Protagonist: Reincarnated veteran with dormant instincts; driven, practical, and selfish when necessary. Pacing: Weak-to-Strong arc. No instant god-mode—every tier is hard-won. Themes: Intense rivalries, martial mastery, and a slow-burn epic mystery spanning a million years. Romance / Harem: Slow-burn Single Love Interest. No Harem. Release Schedule: 3 Chapters / Week

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.

Against The Eternity

Warning: This fiction contains: Graphic Violence Profanity Sensitive Content Power is never free. It is paid for in blood, memory, and choice. Five hundred years after the fall of the God Emperors, a boy named Eklavya walks a path stripped of protection, inheritance, and certainty. He leaves behind clan safety not for glory, but for responsibility—unaware that his body carries memories his mind has long buried. This is not a light power fantasy. Cultivation here is brutal, political, and unforgiving. Strength is earned through loss, survival, and restraint. As ancient enemies stir and hidden truths claw their way to the surface, Eklavya is forced to confront a question greater than power itself: What kind of man survives long enough to claim revenge? Dark cultivation, slow-burning emotion, ruthless battles, and a tragic, escalating journey against fate itself. Read Against the Eternity—where survival is a choice, and eternity is the enemy. Note:  This is an original novel written entirely by me. It was first written in my native language and later self-translated into English, so you may notice slight variations in phrasing or flow.”
