Fresh from the front lines of the Great War, newly commissioned lieutenant Eve "Chance" Masters has been recruited into a shadow branch of the Entente military machine. The Special Courier Service is a clandestine counter-partisan unit tasked with rooting out enemy agents and dealing with supernatural cases that others cannot, or will not handle themselves.

Chance expects to deal only with the violent Apache gangs of Paris, but her mission goes on a startling tangent when she unearths clues pointing to the whereabouts of a forgotten, long-lost national relic. However, with no extant records or witnesses, she turns to her last resort: talking with the dead.

Cross Conviction by D_Strasse
68 parts Ongoing Mature
In late 1916, fueled by wartime desperation and a zealous belief in the heroic epics of old, Imperial German archeologist Emil Gliese founded a program to locate, train, and weaponize individuals with diverse supernatural powers. Christened as "Iron Knights", these super-soldiers cut a swath of devastation through enemy forces until the opposing powers mirrored the program. By the time the armistice was signed, nearly all of Europe's "exceptionals" were dead. The year is now 1937 and tensions are once again on the rise. In defiance of the restrictions placed on it by the treaty that ended the Great War, Germany has once again started to covertly train legions of exceptionals. However, due to the near eradication of such superhumans in the war, the government is forced to scrape the bottom of the proverbial barrel in hopes of turning less-than-impressive abilities into lethal weapons. Arthur Sturm is the teenage son of one of the few surviving Iron Knights; a famous war hero known as "The Hurricane". Despite a serious heart condition that threatens his life, Arthur goes against his father's wishes in an attempt to follow in The Hurricane's footsteps. Together with his closest allies; a mysterious swordswoman from the Far East and a Jewish "calciumancer" hiding right under the Nazis' noses, Arthur Sturm charges headlong to prove himself worthy of taking up his father's mantle. Along the way these young heroes face off against rebels, supernatural forces, and foreign powers, all while struggling with the reality that the very government which holds their allegiance might be the most wicked foe of all.

[Simulation + Dark + Non-Human + No Female Protagonist] Once an ordinary human, Oliver awakens in a dark world as the lowest and weakest monster: a goblin. Immediately, he falls victim to human adventurers and is ruthlessly killed. But death is not the end for him. With his demise, he activates the Life Simulation System, an ability that allows him to replay and manipulate his life's events, learning from each failure to make better decisions. Moreover, as a goblin, he receives the rare divine blessing bestowed only on his kind, offering him opportunities to evolve into powerful forms. Through constant trial and error, Oliver begins to reshape his destiny. Every simulation brings new knowledge, whether in strategic battles, devouring powerful creatures to absorb their strength, or evolving into advanced goblin types. From his humble beginnings, Oliver relentlessly ascends, using his cunning and the system to outsmart enemies and grow stronger with each iteration. As Oliver evolves into fearsome forms-first a Goblin Warrior, then higher-tier beings-his ambition becomes clear: to conquer the world that once sought to exterminate him. Along the way, once-invincible entities, such as the revered Sword Saintess, the Mother of Dragons, and even angelic deities who once looked down on goblins, find themselves bowing before him. With no female lead or conventional protagonist, this dark, non-human narrative explores Oliver's rise from obscurity and his quest to become a figure of ultimate power in a brutal, unforgiving world, defying all odds and expectations.
