The Red Flags of a Serial Killer

Eliot, 22, has only one dream: to be normal. Get his degree, keep his amazing girlfriend, and blend into the crowd. But fate-or maybe that weird priest who performed an exorcism on him when he was eight-has other plans. Because Eliot has a secret he doesn't even know himself: he's a magnet for catastrophes. Not just any catastrophes. Everywhere he goes, "perfect" people tend to suffer fatal accidents-absurd, unlikely, and almost comically timed. A slip on the stairs. A forgotten allergy. A thunderstorm that strikes a little too precisely... The worst part? Eliot is convinced he's cursed. He lives in constant fear of the police and crushed by guilt over his clumsiness. What he doesn't know yet is that Karma has a very particular sense of humor. His "victims" are never innocent. A serial killer disguised as the ideal son-in-law, a neighbor with an unspeakable past, a web celebrity with cult-like tactics... Eliot cleans up the city without meaning to-one fall at a time. Between panic attacks, deadly misunderstandings, and criminal law exams, discover the story of the most incompetent-and the most effective-vigilante in history. PS : Just so you know, English isn't my native language, but I'll do my best so you can enjoy my ideas as much as possible :) "I will be posting this story on Royal Road'

I Command

Some voices are born to be heard. Others are born to be feared. Shelly Halton was never given the chance to be ordinary. Born into a noble family, her existence became a secret that even her own blood feared to expose. But beneath the whispers, the shame, and the doors closed against her lies something far more unsettling than her appearance. Something that should have remained forgotten. In a world where a single voice can change everything, Shelly will discover that being silenced and being powerless are not the same thing. Meanwhile, in the kingdom of Eclastare, a young noblewoman named Sophia finds herself drawn to something she cannot quite explain. Singing has always been a part of her life, but there are moments when her own voice feels strangely unfamiliar—as though it carries something she has yet to understand. Two girls, each with a voice of her own. Two lives moving toward a future neither can fully see. But the world is not kind to those who are different, and power rarely comes without a price. As secrets linger beneath the surface and the boundaries between fear, freedom, and ambition begin to blur, their paths will lead toward a conflict neither can simply sing or command her way out of. Because when the world refuses to listen, what is left for those who were born with voices that should never have existed?

My Unicorn Thinks I’m His Maiden – A Dungeon Crawler World Story

The world ended while I was hungover… and dressed as a magical girl. It's not exactly how I planned to start my day. One minute I was waking up next to a bonfire with my friends, the next, everything, my home, my town, all of it, gone. Flattened. Stripped. Replaced with dirt and stone like it never existed. Then came the message, Earth had been claimed and harvested due to an error in paperwork. And the survivors? We were given a choice: Enter a massive, AI-controlled dungeon… or stay behind and figure out how long we could last with nothing left. I didn’t have supplies, didn’t have a plan, didn’t even have proper clothes, but I wasn’t about to sit around and starve so, I started walking. Now I’ve got my friends behind me, a horse that refuses to leave my side, and a countdown to get to the nearest entrance. I don’t know what’s waiting for us down there, but I do know one thing... If I’m going to survive the end of the world, I’m apparently doing it in heels. (Gonna be straight up with everyone, if you are familiar with the DCC novels then you should know what to generally expect. No, Carl and Donut will not make an appearance, this story happens at the same time and the dungeon is a big place. I am attempting to stay within the cannon though. Also, there will be a gender transformation, but it won’t happen until the start of the 3rd floor. However, that doesn't mean that the AI isn’t going to be trying to push the MC into it, after all, the AI finds the idea funny... Also, I hope this series inspires anyone who enjoys it and isn’t familiar with Dungeon Crawler Carl to pick up the first book and give it a try. Finally, a message to Matt Dinniman. I apologize in advance. At the very least, I hope if you ever come across this story it is weird enough for you.) (Credit where credit is due, the character design for the cover is by the talented Marudochi) (This novel is also being posted on Scribblehub and Royal Road)

Ascension Of The Throne

Imagine dying on Earth and waking up mid-chase—hunted by armed guards and a man riding a horse big enough to be a monster... Well, that's what happens to Edric. Survival is Edric Veyra’s only priority… until he learns the truth. He didn’t reincarnate into a nobody. He woke up as Edric Veyra, last heir to a fallen house that once helped found the kingdom itself. A house now reduced to whispers, half-remembered stories, and something people would rather forget. Before he can make sense of it, a System activates—less a blessing, more a forced tutorial. Fragments of the original Edric’s memories flood in, incomplete and unsettling, as if someone tore pages out of his past. Along with them comes a weapon that shouldn’t exist anymore: a rune-engraved flintlock capable of firing elemental shots, a relic of techniques long buried. Hunted by beasts, criminals, and forces that seem far too interested in whether House Veyra stays dead, Edric is left with one question that refuses to let him run forever: What really happened to House Veyra—and who made sure it fell? To find the answer, he’ll need to grow stronger, form uneasy alliances, and survive long enough to uncover a truth powerful enough to erase a founding pillar of the nation. What to Expect: -Weak to Strong Progression -'Lite' litrpg System w/ Minimal Stats -Emphasis on Party Dynamics -No Harem -1500+words per chapter -Smooth pacing

The One Punch Demon

Julien is a young high schooler and a self-proclaimed loser. Everyone's punching bag. His classmates bully him daily and he had been wishing to disappear because he couldn't take it anymore. "If this was a video game, I would punch all of them with a single punch." He thought about fighting back but never had the guts. But in video games, he was untouchable. Number one worldwide on his favourite game, ABYSS ARENA. He had few challengers and none of them lasted long. It still wasn't enough to satisfy him though. One afternoon after getting bullied, he logged on, took out a challenger in under a minute, then he was still bored that he switched to story mode. He had been using his favourite character, Sorin, a powerful fighter, strong enough to challenge Lennon, a boss who had proven to be an opponent Julien simply couldn't beat. He gave up and let the game run on its own. Lennon made his final move and sent Sorin flying into the sky. The crowd erupted screaming Lennon's name. Julien closed his eyes in jealous. ‘If only I was famous like Lennon.’ Suddenly He saw himself falling. He was inside Sorin's body, actually, he was Sorin. Falling from the sky, he drove one punch straight into the celebrating Lennon and knocked him out. Sorin stood victorious. Julien (Sorin) cheered. "Yeah!" But the voice that came out wasn't his. It was hard and deep. Instead of erupting with cheers, the crowd remained quiet. Then the system screamed. "ALERT. ALERT. ALERT. Arch Demon detected within the Arena premises. This is a Code Red. All defense forces, converge on the Arena immediately." He had been given a second life inside a fighter's body — but that second life came with a problem. He was a demon. The entire Varenhold State was now hunting him. He was saved by Clara, an elf girl who helped him escape and showed him the ropes of this new world. What Sorin didn't know was that Clara was on a mission. A prophecy had foretold the coming of a powerful demon — and the person who sent Clara wanted Sorin to become the next Demon King. When Clara found out the truth after bringing Sorin in, she refused to hand Sorin over. She chose to become a traitor instead. With her trusted team of girls by her side, they fled with Sorin. But the threats kept coming. Sorin's fiancée in another state had her own agenda. She wanted his power, and she was willing to become an enemy to get it. Now the whole world is after him. Arch Demons aren't allies to any race. Every faction wants him captured, controlled or dead. How will a boy who just wanted to beat a video game boss survive a world that was never meant for him?
