Neophyte World Builder

VOLUME 1 on Amazon! He’s got the whole world in his hands. Nobody told him godhood needed an instruction manual. Reincarnated as the Administrator of a newborn universe, an ordinary man from Earth must design everything — physics, magic, plants, animals, and the rules that bind them — while ensuring the world generates the energy he needs to survive. The problem: every tweak he makes can cause unintended consequences. And sometimes, he has to live in his own creation to experience the results of his choices. (Updates 2 days/week, M-Tu) (Also posting on Scribble Hub and Royal Road) (Cover by Bad Moon Studio)

Pokémon: The Seeker System

He watched every Pokémon adventure. He knew every legend. But nobody told him what would happen when he became part of the story. Par was an ordinary Pokémon fan who had spent years following Ash Ketchum across every region. On the night he died, he was doing nothing extraordinary—just rewatching Pokémon Black & White. Then he opened his eyes in Unova. The Pokémon he had watched on a screen were real. The legendary creatures he had dreamed about existed. And somewhere in this vast world, Ash Ketchum was beginning his journey. But there was one problem. Par had no money, no Trainer Card, and not even a Pokémon to protect him. Until a mysterious Seeker System changed everything. A Mythic Egg became his first partner, hatching into Zeraora—a Pokémon with unbelievable potential. With the Seeker's Eye, Par could locate Pokémon, analyse their abilities, and gradually unlock new powers through hard-earned victories. But knowing Pokémon was one thing. Surviving alongside them was another. As Par builds his team, meets unexpected companions, faces ruthless Trainers, and uncovers secrets buried in Unova's ancient history, his journey begins to diverge from the story he thought he knew. Team Plasma has secrets of its own. Legendary Pokémon are more than distant stories. And the strange energy left behind by Par's death may hold the key to something far greater than reincarnation. He came to this world wanting to finish the journey he once watched. Now, he's going to create a legend of his own. ⚡ Mythical Pokémon. A unique System. Original companions. Fierce rivalries. Legendary encounters. An adventure across regions. The journey of the Mythic Seeker begins here.

Origins of Blood

For thousands of years, the government lied, kept us hostage, and sold us unknowingly. Little did we know that these times would be the best for us all. The High-Bloods came through the firmament that veiled us in snow, and conquered everything. They shattered our false freedom, burned flesh from our bones, and feasted on us for sport. They enslaved us to be chained beyond Earth's soil—Hemorion, they call it their home. Now, we are forced into a society ruled by blood, where Kingdoms, slaves, and the deaths of beloved are as common as the light from Helios, one of their deities. Yet, whenever my eyelids close, I still see red—the light of us all stolen ... my brother’s and my own dying. But as my blood is red, my hope burns forever. I will kill them all. Note: this is a rewritten version of my already published first Volume, "Red Eclipse," of "Origins of Blood," and thus will be a revised edition with changes throughout the entire story, including prose, characters, worldbuilding, powersystem, and other elements.

The Devil's Ante

What happens when the unluckiest man on Earth gets a class based purely on luck? I died in the most beautiful place a man could die - a shady gambling parlour run by a local thug. I'd never won anything in life, except for a couple of bucks in a pack of chips, and that luck was sure to follow me into the afterlife. Turns out heaven isn't as nice as they say. It's quite fucking awful, actually. A four-foot-in-heels goddess of luck took one look at my soul, decided I was a problem, and awakened something in me that dragged me into a whole new world. Now this awakened System has decided my entire combat class should be Gambler. Do you want to know how it works? I throw a punch, the System flips a coin, and if it comes up wrong, it bills me. And it does that by attacking me, not the guy I was trying to hit. Everyone keeps telling me to bet small. Bet safe. Survive. Yeah. We'll see.

The Prisoner of the Tides / Shio no Toraware Neiva

What if the Gods cast you down from paradise not to be a savior, but to be a sacrifice? In a realm of light beyond the clouds, a god's worth isn't measured by their goodness or purity, but by how idolized they are. Neiva Deep Water was a Primordial Goddess of Hyperion, living an untouchable eternity, until a dragon invasion shatters the celestial borders. The ruling deities decree a cruel fate: Neiva and her sisters are stripped of their grace and banished to the mortal realm of Primitia. Their mission? To act as divine shields for a fragile humanity. But Primitia is not a world that welcomes saviors. It is a ruthless, blood-soaked land ruled by tyrants, demons, and the Twelve Tears of Hollows, an elite guild of assassins that manipulates the continent from the shadows. When a desperate escape goes terribly wrong, Neiva is violently separated from her twin sister and thrust into the darkest corners of the mortal world. To survive, the goddess of water must trade her divine silks for a colossal iron greatsword and stain her hands with blood. The goddess of water was sent to save a planet, but on earth, she will find mortals who also bleed to save the land they love, and monsters who seek to consume it entirely. Cover by : Yuzhang

SAIKON

Ryo Kenzaki was good at being invisible. Just another high schooler, keeping his head down and waiting for each day to end. Then a star fell from the sky. When Ryo pulls a dying woman from the crater it leaves behind, he learns the world he knows is already breaking. Beyond it lies the Hunting Realm—a place where monsters are born from fallen Hunters, and something is beginning to push through. Hunted by a creature he cannot understand, Ryo is dragged to a sanctuary between worlds and forced into a choice that was never really his: take up a Kizugami, a living blade forged from wounds, or die before dawn. But the blade doesn’t obey. It judges. As the weapon begins to search his soul, Ryo is pulled into a war he never asked to join—one shadowed by an impossible Eye in the sky, a relentless Kaimon on his trail, and an ending that may already have been decided. Ryo never wanted to be a Hunter. But if becoming one is the only way to protect what remains, he’ll have to answer a far more dangerous question: When the world strips everything from him, can he still stand as himself once more?
