Rudimenta: Charoite Spear
I really would if I could but I can't. My hand seems to spasm at the thought of writing a blurb. I'll try but it doesn't seem to be working out. Ok trust. There's a girl picking berries.

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.

soulmates at the wrong time
Soulmates at the Wrong Time is a slow-burn romance about two childhood best friends who lose each other because of one painful misunderstanding and meet again ten years later, when life has changed them but their past hasn't entirely let them go. At seventeen, Elisa and Kevin become close despite their very different personalities. Elisa is lively, talkative, stubborn, and often says whatever comes to her mind. Kevin is calm, reserved, and finds comfort in listening to her. Their friendship grows naturally, becoming an important part of their school life. For Elisa, Kevin is the first boy she truly allows into her world. For Kevin, she becomes someone whose presence makes even ordinary days feel special. But a humiliating incident shatters their friendship. When Elisa needs Kevin to stand up for her, he fails to do so. His reaction leaves her deeply hurt, and she walks away from the friendship without giving him another chance. Kevin is left with regret, while Elisa learns to live as though he never mattered. Ten years later, fate brings them together again at Willowbrook Academy, where both work as teachers. Elisa has built an independent life, with her career, family, and dreams to focus on. She has no intention of reopening a chapter she worked so hard to close. Kevin, now more mature and settled in his career, is equally unprepared to face the girl he once lost. He still carries the guilt of their separation and knows that seeing her again doesn't give him the right to enter her life. Their reunion brings back emotions neither expected. Elisa tries to maintain her distance, while Kevin struggles between wanting to reconnect and believing that staying away is the better thing to do. Their colleagues and families gradually become part of this renewed connection, especially Lisa, Elisa's close friend, and Clara, Kevin's younger sister, who knows how much the two once meant to each other. As time passes, small interactions begin to soften the awkwardness between Elisa and Kevin. Their old friendship slowly finds its way back, but rebuilding trust is not as simple as remembering the good days. Elisa still carries the hurt, and Kevin must learn that regret alone cannot repair what he broke. He has to show her through his actions that he is no longer the boy who stood silently when she needed him. Their families add warmth and humour to the story. Both mothers share a special affection for the other's child, and the families gradually grow closer. While Lisa notices Elisa's changing emotions, Clara quietly hopes that the two will find their way back to each other. Jaxson, Elisa's protective brother, remains cautious of Kevin, making it clear that earning Elisa's trust also means respecting the people who love her. As friendship turns into something deeper, Elisa and Kevin find themselves facing feelings they never expected to share again. Family expectations surrounding marriage bring an unexpected turn in their relationship, leading them towards a legal marriage arrangement. What begins as a practical decision gradually becomes an opportunity for them to discover each other in a new way. For Kevin, love is no longer something he wants to hide. For Elisa, accepting those feelings means allowing herself to be vulnerable again. Their married life brings shy moments, teasing, affection, and the gradual realisation that the person she once lost has become someone she can choose for herself. However, their journey still has its challenges. Kevin's career takes him to another city, bringing distance into their relationship just as they are learning to understand their feelings. The separation gives Elisa the space to recognise how deeply she has come to depend on his presence—not out of habit or their shared past, but because she genuinely loves him. Through distance, patience, and honest conversations, they begin to build a relationship that is no longer defined by their teenage friendship or the mistakes of the past. Elisa eventually finds the courage to express her feelings, and Kevin finally receives the love he had quietly hoped for. The story concludes with Elisa and Kevin building a happy family together. Their journey comes full circle, from two teenagers who once lost their friendship to two adults who finally understand what it means to choose each other. At its heart, Soulmates at the Wrong Time is about second chances, forgiveness, growing up, and the kind of love that survives time—not because nothing went wrong, but because two people learn to make things right.
