    Marcy had a bad day. Then the world ended, and it got much, much worse. One minute, Marcy is a "horribly normal" girl living in a cramped apartment building, pining over her cheerful neighbor, Allan. The next, a "System" descends from the stars, turning Earth into a deadly game and its inhabitants into its players. But while others get to be Paladins or Soldiers, the System has a personal vendetta against Marcy. After refusing its rigged choices, Marcy finds herself transformed: Current Height: 4'2" Current Color: Neon Pink Current Class: [Dragon Fodder] Now, as a physics-defying Bunny-folk with a snarky, six-foot sentient greatsword named Wulf, Marcy has to survive a world that literally wants to eat her. To make matters worse, her crush Allan has reappeared... as a brooding, red-haired Half-Dragon who doesn't know whether to kiss her or have her for lunch. With a snarky System mocking her every move and a mysterious "glitch" in the interface giving her illegal advice, Marcy is about to prove that being "Prey" doesn't mean you're on the menu. Sometimes, to save the world, you just have to jump.

    ⚠️NOTE: THIS IS JUST PART ONE SINCE I MANAGED TO HIT THE CHAPTER LIMIT!!⚠️ 4 Years. 4 Years since my life went to hell. I'm KK, yes that KK. The same KK who's the daughter of a NASCAR Champion. The same KK who's the niece of a 2X NASCAR Champion. The same KK who soften NASCAR's most violated driver. The same KK who started a race car when I was only 11 months old. The same KK who won the heart of America just by an old Indianapolis interview that's from 2003. The same KK whose racing career literally started in Power Wheels Drag Racing. Yes you heard me. Power Wheels....Drag Racing. The same KK who beat the Brothers at their home track in 2012...and I won the race. The same KK who was a junior drift event in Austria with a car nicknamed The Angry Matchbox. The same KK who drag raced my father at Daytona for the win in K&N Pro Series in 2013. The same KK who won the GT class during the 2014 24HRS of Daytona at 14. The same KK that won a rally race with Kyle Busch.....yes that Kyle Busch. The same KK that still has three Chili Bowl records that are still standing to this day. The same KK who stole her father's ride in 2018. The same KK who was the youngest driver in the sports history. 18 years old. The same KK that wreaked her father in 2018 Brickyard 400. I'm that KK.... Everyone tends to forget all the records I have broken through out my life, but that doesn't matter. Instead I am famous for two things: Stealing my father's ride in 2018. Wreaking my father in the 2018 Brickyard 400. And that's it... What else would I be remembered for? Winning the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series title with an open car team who originally left the sport back in '21? 
Yeah right.....NASCAR will never have a female driver that can compete in a male dominate sport. I might have been the closes, but that doesn't mean anything to anyone. I'm Tymrie, and this is my story.

    My name was Randi Pangabekti, until I died of brain cancer and got reincarnated into the generic magic academy anime "Steelheart of the F-Rank Copymaster Cyberknight" as a random side character named Ryouhei Watanabe instead of the main character Kouki Hiromasa. Not only was Ryouhei a joke character who only exists to get folded by the heroine Ingrid van Draakia in a short gag, he's an F-Rank Cyberknight with an Armament in the form of a goddamn Refrigerator. One that could only make a cold breeze in comparison to the ice powers of Aishea Shirayuki, Kouki's childhood friend and my favorite waifu that I would be gunning for. Despite that, with my newfound power, I can finally pursue my dreams to become a great man in this world. Even with my trashy ability, I will reach the top of the world of Cyberknighthood by becoming the best student in Tenmu Academy and surpassing the strongest characters like Suishin Nishinomiya the school president and Kouki then achieve S-Rank. Hell, unlike him, I'll make my own harem! However, I never foresaw that the world had changed in mysterious ways I never expected. As my butterfly wings might not be the only pair fluttering a storm throughout this world...

    Moe Yan was supposed to fail. Two strikes on his record. A commodore who wanted him gone. Special Forces training designed to break him. He passed anyway. Then a wolf came - an F-Rank Elite monster. He killed it with a bronze dagger and a stubborn refusal to die. The military called it PTSD. The doctors called it a delusion. But the gods called him back to the white space, where they gave him a blessing before he even knew what a hunter was. Now he carries his grandfather's blade. A D-Rank hunter named Thant Zin teaches him the truth. And together, they fight dungeons that grow stronger every day. This is his last universe. The gods saved it for him. And he will not break. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This novel contains 12 arcs. I have had this in my mind for a long time. English is not my first language, and I lack time, so I put this off again and again. Now, with the help of Deepseek and Grammarly, I can finally write it. I try my best to give the reader good storytelling. Feel free to criticize and point out the plot holes.

    THRYNVEIL - Vol. 1: The Chains Melted Some people dream of freedom. JoJo has been trying to get arrested for it. Seventy three crimes. Seventy three attempts to force the Spirit of Zebac to do what the law demands - banish him from the island kingdom of Vehl Zehra and send him into the vast, dangerous world beyond the sea. But the Spirit keeps refusing, the chains keep holding, and JoJo's dream of becoming the greatest warrior in the world keeps pressing against the walls of the only home he has ever known. Then the Balista arrives. Three levels. A forest that devours souls. A cave that breaks minds. A sparring ground that determines your worth. And somewhere inside the darkness, powerful forces hunting specific targets - making a deadly selection even deadlier. To earn his freedom JoJo must survive. But survival, it turns out, is easier with the right people beside you. A swordsman who swore loyalty in the middle of a monster forest. A giant who carries the weight of a promise made to the dead. A girl who fell from another world entirely, carrying a power she is only beginning to understand. A former slave who bends the laws of reality from the pages of a book. They were not chosen. They were not selected. They found each other in the dark and decided that was enough. The world has never met anyone like them. It is about to. Some chains are made of iron. Some are made of fear. The hardest ones to break are the ones you never knew were there.

    In a world where most students carry glowing insignias that show their power, some are born without one. They're called Nulls - overlooked, underestimated, and pushed aside.

    My name is Simon, and I have a simple 3-step plan for life: 1. Stay hydrated by drinking liquids other than coffee (and blood). 2. Stay alive as long as possible. 3. Die of natural causes (ideally happily without pain in a very comfy bed). But the universe has other plans. Between billionaires offering me Bentleys, "Chosen Ones" using me as a human shield, and a literal vampire hierarchy that seems to think I'm a gourmet snack, my hobo-core lifestyle is under siege. I neither have superpowers nor a tragic backstory (unless you count my bank balance). All I have is a frying pan, a high-limit credit card that isn't mine, and a level of apathy so thick it might actually be a physical barrier. Welcome to my life. I'm just an NPC, and I'm really, really trying not to die in the prologue.

    Suki Jeong is an expert at only two things: failing math class and worrying about her sister's cancer. Her life in L.A. is quiet, safe, and completely ordinary-until a flyer at her local Asian mart offers a desperate way out. An audition for K-pop trainees. 🎤 Suki has zero talent. Like, actually none. She can't dance, her singing is strictly a solo shower act, and she knows nothing about idols. But with a one-way ticket to Seoul and the help of her mysterious neighbor, Auntie Jing, she's diving headfirst into the world's most brutal industry. Between a cold CEO, grueling dance challenges, and fierce rivals who want her gone-not to mention an enemy who's becoming a crush she definitely should not trust-much less fall for-can someone this ordinary survive the stage? But she isn't doing this for fame. She's doing it for Ari... right? No training. No backup plan. Just a heart full of recklessness and a desperate need to win. Suki is going to scrape her way to the top-or break trying. CW: This story contains themes of illness (cancer) and hospital settings. Please read with care. Copyright: © 2026 by HalfMoon_Huntress.
