    Author : 周果子的肺 Associated Names : 末世後被前男友救了 Translator: Afei-transmtl Link: https://afeitransmtl.blogspot.com/2025/03/when-i-become-heir-of-evil-god.html Synopsis: Cui Xisheng had chased Meng Jiangtian for three years, sharing the most intimate moments for just as long. He thought they had been in a relationship for three years. But on the day Meng Jiangtian's white moonlight ex-girlfriend returned from abroad, he left without hesitation. That was when Cui Xisheng realized he had only ever been a "regular friend" whom Meng Jiangtian called upon at will. Heartbroken, Cui Xisheng ate three large bowls of food in one go, only to end up vomiting so badly that he was rushed to the hospital. When the doctor congratulated him on being one month pregnant, Cui Xisheng nearly got into a fight with them. After all, he was a man-a pure-blooded man. Yet, as someone who studied traditional Chinese medicine, Cui Xisheng ran multiple self-checks, all of which confirmed the impossible: he was indeed pregnant. There was only one possible father-Meng Jiangtian. But Cui Xisheng chose not to tell him. Who needed whom, anyway? That belief was shattered a month later when the apocalypse suddenly struck. As an ordinary person without awakened abilities, survival became nearly impossible for Cui Xisheng. When he was on the verge of being bitten by a zombie, he instinctively shielded his two-month-old belly. But the expected pain never came. When Cui Xisheng opened his eyes, he found himself staring at Meng Jiangtian's cold, indifferent face once again. At that moment, he wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or devastated.

    Something broke the day the zombie apocalypse started. Perhaps it had something to do with how many families were destroyed after being torn into shreds. Or how governments fell with a simple bite. Maybe, it was the fact that no one felt safe anymore, not even in the company of the few live humans who remained. Despite the hardships, Robby was sure that nothing would shatter the bond shared with Brooke. A bond built on decades of trust and the last thread of normalcy of a life before grilled squirrels and tents. But will they really cling to each other when one spirals down the drain? Or will they let go like the rest of the world did? ❀ {The Walking Dead Season 1} {Daryl Dixon x OC} {Eventual Carl Grimes x OC}

    Ten years ago, seven-year-old Mila Voss vanished without a trace. The world moved on. Or so she was meant to believe. Deep beneath the surface, inside a classified government facility, Mila has spent a decade as Subject V-937 - a test subject in a pathogen program pushing human adaptation to its limits. Around her, children disappear. Friends die. Memories fade. Survival becomes routine. To cope, Mila keeps a notebook. A list of names. A record of everyone she refuses to forget. When Adrian Vale arrives as a new recruit assigned to observe the facility, he expects science. Data. Answers. Instead, he finds a girl with a notebook full of names and a decade of questions nobody will answer. As their friendship grows through exchanged notes, weather reports, and impossible dreams, Adrian begins uncovering the truth buried beneath years of lies. The children were never lost. They were taken. And somewhere above ground, their families are still searching. Now, with time running out and the facility closing in, Mila and Adrian must decide whether hope is worth the risk of everything. Because some storms are meant to be survived. And some cages were never meant to last.

    Losing someone they care about, a troubled wanderer must journey across a wasted world with their new found companion. Finding happiness, meaning, and maybe a little something more with his new friend, Yulin has an unsure but worth while adventure ahead. There are themes like violence, intense and sad scenes, death, and maybe some more romantic related 'intense' scenes as well (mild NSFW). This is a trigger warning. These themes are meant to enhance the plot, but if you're uncomfortable, feel free to skip ahead or even not read this if it's not for you. In any case, I hope you have fun exploring this world, as well as seeing the characters interact with their environment... and each other. *Updates every other Tuesday. I'm excited to share the chapters that I am currently editing, and I would like to hear anything you have to say about the story.

    Before kings and empires, before mankind walked beneath the stars, there was a song-divine, broken, and eternal. From the first breath of Consciousness to the fall of gods and the rise of mortals, The Divine Requiem Saga weaves a mythic chronicle of a world forever caught in a cycle of creation and collapse. Across eons, civilizations rise from sacred flame and fall to ash. Ancient powers stir in forgotten realms. And as the Age of Conquest dawns, the echoes of a primordial war whisper once more. This is not a tale of heroes. This is the memory of a world-sung through time, bound by fate, and written in requiem.

    If the world of Rain World was rotting, sickly being, the world now is nothing but a dusty skeleton, half buried in the sand, wishing to finally sink back into the earth and be at peace. But the march of progress will not let it pass away peacefully, even as The Cycle halted, and the Iterators collapsed into rusting hulks of steel... Life, however brutal, finds a way... ---- This is just a fun project I just wanna work on while I'm blank on ideas for my other stories. This'll be short, maybe 10 chapters, probably less. This is gonna be heavily based off of the Fallout games, most notably Fallout 2, and a tiny little bit of Dune. This won't be a Reader story, the main character has a name. Oh, and I'll be crossposting this to AO3 if this does well, because I'm GREEDY and I LOVE BEING AN EVIL PERSON HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. More info in the opening chapter.

    Ethan Rost was a hero-a firefighter, a husband, a father. The man who ran into the flames so others could live. But when cancer came for him, he took the miracle cure the world called Genesis, the patch for all human rot, the salvation sold in glossy ads and whispered boardrooms. It cured the tumors. It rewrote his cells. It promised forever. It never said who would live forever inside the rotting cage. Now Ethan is a Remnant-mind trapped behind bone and teeth, forced to watch as the monster in his skin tears through the world he died trying to protect. He can taste every scream. Hear every heartbeat before his hands rip it away. And in the static between kills, he finds others, a chorus of broken minds still awake inside their walking corpses. And far below the ruins, Connor Hale, the last scientist who warned them all, hides behind flickering screens and dying servers, fighting to crack the Genesis code before it devours the last hope for what makes us human. He knows the cure was a lie. He knows the monster is awake. And he knows some things should never be brought back from the grave. This is not your regular zombie apocalypse. No safe farmhouses. No cartoon headshots. No heroes with endless ammo and witty one-liners. This is the apocalypse from the inside out, the last fragments of memory and mercy fighting inside the gnashing teeth. THE PASSENGER is about what happens after the infection, after the flesh is gone, when the only thing left worth saving is your soul. They don't die. They don't sleep. And memory...is the only thing they can't kill.
