Family is a luxury not everyone can afford. Adelyn learned that the day Clara returned to the Scott family —and she quietly stopped belonging. No one abused her. No one hurt her openly. But the love that was once hers alone became divided. The attention that once chose her … became something she had to borrow. And whenever something precious stood between her and Clara —Adelyn was the one asked to let go. Not once. Not twice. But every single time. Her dreams. Her choices. Her place in the family. Her heart didn’t break in a single moment —it wore down slowly … until nothing remained worth fighting for. So, she erased herself from their world. Not in anger. Not in revenge. But to save what little of herself was left. ————— Seven years later, Adelyn returned. Not for the Scott family. Not for their love. She came back for the dreams she was once forced to abandon —and this time, nothing would be taken from her. No compromises. No sacrifices. Only her life. Her rules. She breathed in freedom. “No family…no shackles.” But just then— Two small arms wrapped around her legs. She stiffened. Looking down, she met a pair of familiar doe eyes staring up at her with unwavering trust. “Mama … Eira waited long for you. Don’t leave again.” …Mama? Before she could understand or react, a tall shadow fell over them. A man stood there —gaze sharp, cold, claiming —looking at her like she had belonged to him. “You dared to show up again?” Adelyn felt clueless. She would have asked him what he meant, however — Before she could speak — the ground vanished beneath her feet. A powerful arm lifted her effortlessly. “Since you dared …” his voice dropped —low, restrained, dangerous. “Don’t think of escaping again.

Quanzhi Fashi (Versatile Mage) was nothing more than a novel—and later an anime—in his past life. A work of fiction he once read, watched, and eventually forgot. Now, he has been reincarnated into that very world, where magic is cultivation, and power is built step by merciless step. This is a world that is fundamentally pay-to-win. Every Magic Tier. Every spell. Every elemental awakening. Every breakthrough and advancement— all of it demands resources beyond imagination. Talent without backing is meaningless. Effort without wealth is wasted. But he is an exception. He possesses a System—one that provides what this world values above all else. A system that grants infinite resources. What began as a lie becomes truth. What began as weakness becomes cultivation. What began as insignificance becomes ascension. From a nobody to a true mage. From a mage to a ruler of the heavens. He will rise above all. He will command the stars. He will become the Emperor of Stars.

A new world. A new reality. Something straight out of the novel huh? Well then, let's see what this new world have to offer? Shall i be a good guy?..... Meh. Lets just play it my way. Lets be a freaking villian.

In a forgotten lower world, Lin Yuan grew up as an orphan, convinced he had been abandoned at birth. His only clue to his origin is a dull gray medallion that seems completely worthless, a strange object no one in his remote region can recognize. When he tries to enter the Grey Cloud Sect to change his fate, he discovers that his spiritual meridians are severely damaged and is publicly humiliated as trash incapable of cultivation. But just when his life seems to have reached its end, a dimensional rift drags him into an impossible inheritance: the Supreme Sect Foundation System. Instead of turning him into a lone warrior, the system gives him a far greater mission—to found a sect, raise monstrous disciples, and lead it to a height that can challenge the heavens. With his meridians only partially repaired, a sealed legacy hidden within the Firmament-Sealed Medallion, and a ruined mountain as his only starting point, Lin Yuan must build the Primordial Firmament Sect from nothing. As he gathers the world's discarded talents and faces clans, sects, and hidden enemies, the mystery of his past begins to awaken. The medallion that protected him when he was a baby does not belong to that world, and all signs point to the truth that Lin Yuan is no ordinary orphan, but the lost heir of the mighty Lin Family of the Celestial Firmament, one of the great bloodlines of the higher worlds. From humiliation to ascension, Lin Yuan will walk a path of blood, glory, loss, and conquest to discover who cast him into the abyss... and why the heavens are not done with him yet.

My name is Johnson Joffrey. I’m fourteen years old, an ordinary student living in the quiet Andali community. I wake up at seven, go to school at eight, study until five, and sleep at ten. I don’t smoke, I don’t drink, I don’t chase girls or anime. I read classic novels, drink warm milk, and sleep soundly every night. People say I’m boring. They’re right. I’ve always wanted a peaceful, ordinary life. So why is Jotaro Kujo staring at me like I just committed a crime? Why did that man with golden hair call me “brother”? And why does that voice in my head keep whispering about a Stand called 「Requiem Genesis」? I swear, I’m just a normal high school student. Definitely not a Stand User. Definitely not DIO’s successor. And absolutely not the perfect villain destined to rewrite the world. A serious JoJo fanfiction about the most ordinary villain you’ll ever meet.

One look to learn. Two looks to master. Ren Isana was summoned to a world where spiritual energy has returned, monsters roam the streets, and spatial rifts lead to dangerous alternate dimensions. But he wasn’t summoned by a god or a king—he was summoned by his own parallel self: a depressed orphan who sacrificed his existence just to bring Ren into this “giant cesspool” of a world. However, the sacrifice wasn’t in vain. Ren awakened the Eyes of Insight, a legendary talent from another world. Whether it is the bone-shattering martial arts of a street-corner elder, the high-tier elemental spells of elite professors, or even the unique bloodline talents of his peers—Ren sees it all. Yukino Yukinoshita’s perfect physical control? Copied. Asuna Yuuki’s lightning-fast rapier speed? Mastered. Aria Valentia (Ais Wallenstein)’s divine wind magic? Replicated and improved. When a spatial rift opens to the legendary city of Orario, Ren doesn’t go to explore—he goes to dominate. Behind him stands a class of the world’s most famous “geniuses.” Ahead of him stand the gods themselves. As the newly appointed Captain of the Hestia Familia, Ren Isana is about to show the inhabitants of the Dungeon what happens when a mortal possesses the eyes of a god. “You call that a secret technique? Sorry—I learned it five seconds ago… and I think I do it better.”

Uma Musume, but My Cheat Power

Tao Hua's life is fucking miserable, and that misery somehow earns him the title of "Village Disgrace." In order to cope with the awful treatment, he often retreats into words untold, dictated by the flip of a page. These worlds leave him with the dream of escaping this piece of shit town. To his utter dismay, his wish comes true, but not in the way all those fairytales promised. His saviour is a man he becomes enthralled with and whom he names “Lord No-Name.” This male lead is a touchy man with many faces. And for lack of a better word, Tao Hua can’t decide if he’s either the story’s love interest or villain. But the two share a common sentiment. This prince, alike Tao Hua, is also fucking miserable. But arguably worse! And instead of coping like a normal fucking person, he does the opposite. He doesn't escape. He doesn't cope. He just tries to fight against the already fated truth of his demise. 0/10, worst prince ever written. Misery aside, this fateful encounter will force Tao Hua to make a choice, leaving him with only one question: "What was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despise a beauty's entire existence?" ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses are beautiful, and upon closer observation they’re less floral than once thought. It follows the POV of Tao Hua, as he tries to navigate his new life in a place that actually values him, and the prince of this story’s mood swings. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!!Disclaimer!!!! EXTREMELY SLOW PACED! Character driven, before plot! This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic and self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. It often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. A lot of the work will be edited over time, but the bones will remain the same. ──── ୨୧ ──── There are occasional illustrations littered throughout the novel drawn by me (slowly commissioning to get others done), usually found in the comments! !!CREDIT!! Cover Art by @Sayoto (VGen) Illustrations by me (@meowssey) and zaza (@zazhah) (Both commissioned artists are amazing to work with and I highly recommend their work!)

But when viral videos and twisted headlines drag Acheron’s darkest moments into the public eye, the man who once claimed him makes it clear he isn’t finished. This isn’t just a scandal. It’s a warning. And the storm is coming.
