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.

In his past life, Vane built a god. He created NexusGPT, an AI so advanced that even with heavy restrictions, his treacherous business partner used it to conquer most of the world within decades. Left with nothing but betrayal, Vane died and woke up in a fantasy realm. He didn't ask for legendary swords, divine blessings or cheat skills. He just wanted his creation back. Seeking a quiet, peaceful existence, Vane tried to build a simple life—a quiet house in the meadows. But this world is unforgiving and the cruelty of empires and mages tore that peace away. Now, Vane is tired. Tired of holding back. Tired of chasing a happiness that the universe refuses to give him. Armed with an AI that holds everything from basic carpentry to quantum mechanics, Vane realises something liberating: if magic bends reality, then being freed from a world with rigid laws of physics means he can rewrite the rules of nature entirely. While arrogant mages waste mana chanting to summon inefficient fireballs, Vane condenses superheated plasma into blinding laser beams that slice through armies. Why match their cavalry when you can rain hellfire from high-altitude aerial bombers? To finally secure the quiet life he desires, Vane will build an unassailable utopia. If he has to conquer every kingdom, crush every empire, unearth the origin of mana and control everything under the stars to secure it, so be it. What to Expect: - Weak to Strong MC who hides his true power. - Academy arcs filled with intrigue and rivalry. - Ruthless, smart and strategic protagonist. - Deep worldbuilding with various races, politics and mysteries. - Exploration of ancient ruins and forgotten secrets. - Powerful intelligent enemies and grand conflicts. - Diplomacy, romance, and wholesome moments. - Epic scale conflicts including a Demon King and wars. - Programming to create advanced magical weapons and tools. - Angels? Gods? ....Aliens?

In the slums beneath Veston, Kael fled before his mother's body grew cold. No sun. No flowers. No hope. No dreams. Winter and gang lords buried them all. "Pray to the gods and endure for a better tomorrow," his mom said. Why would he pray to the same gods who denied him peace? Who thrust him into this nightmare? No, he'd carve a way to Veston with his own hands, and it started by breaking his promise to his mother for survival. But the job for gang lord Garrick Vane went wrong. He was left for dead with nothing but a ledger salvaged from a submerged temple. But he refused death. "I persist." Two words that awakened a forbidden power, an unlicensed truth anchored to belief and paid for in the warmth of his most precious memories. Now a heretic hunted by priests who burn the unfaithful, Kael discovered the ledger tracked everything: his stress, his anchor, the price he had already paid. Every choice stresses his truth.

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.
