A sickly girl died atop a bed, the place she had lived most of her life. On her last breath, a voice echoed into her mind.

"If you could have the perfect next life, what would it be?"

Her eyes closing, she thought. 'I want a life where I am free. . .I want to be in a world like in the novels I enjoyed.'

Thus begins the tale of a girl reborn from a world's mana. A story about a girl who simply wishes to enjoy life. About a girl living her slice of life.

Supreme Ethereal Atomarch by Infinity0_1
4 parts Ongoing
Darkness surrounded me as I woke up, disoriented and gasping for breath. My mind was clouded with confusion, and my body felt heavy and sluggish. It took a moment for my senses to adjust and for me to realize that I was no longer in the virtual reality simulator that had been my prison for so many years. I sat up and looked around, my eyes slowly adjusting to the dimly lit room. It was empty except for a single figure standing in the shadows. As I focused on the person, a sense of familiarity washed over me. It was a girl with long, flowing hair and piercing eyes that seemed to hold the weight of the world. "Who are you?" I managed to croak, my voice barely above a whisper. She stepped forward, her gaze never leaving mine. "I am a goddess," she said, her voice carrying a hint of sorrow. "And I am here to offer you a chance at a new life." The words hung in the air, filling the room with a heavy silence. A new life? It seemed too good to be true. But as I looked into her eyes, I saw a glimmer of sincerity. There was something about her presence that commanded my attention, that made me believe there was more to her than met the eye. "Why me?" I finally asked, my voice filled with a mix of curiosity and skepticism. She sighed softly, her expression softening. "You were caught in an accident, one that I caused unintentionally. It left you paralyzed, trapped in a simulated world. I cannot undo what has been done, but I can offer you a chance to start anew, to live a life free from the confines of that prison."

"Why are my hands getting warmer?" As far as Alicia was concerned, she was the daughter of a rich businessman attending high school. Then, she feels off and at the same time, she's not. One week later, her best friend brought her to another world(s). This is Alicia Bell's tale. --- Wizards of the Otherworldly Court is a multiple worlds and protagonists isekai web novel series about the Otherworldly Court, an inter-dimensional (or world-hopping, you get the idea) organization made up of people of all ages, gender, and race from many parallel or different worlds. They are granted elemental-like magic powers and call themselves 'Court Wizards'. They embark on many worlds in the mission to make them better places whether it'd be covertly in the shadows or out in the open working together with the many kinds of people living there all while having an adventure unlike any other. These are their stories. Basically, it's isekai to MULTIPLE worlds but each book after Wizards of the Otherworldly Court: Alicia focuses primarily on one world while also discussing its lore in detail. Book Alicia is the introduction containing the essential worldbuilding of the Otherworldly Court universe you need to know while shoving in as many characters and worlds as I can. Also, each book will have a different main character, sometimes more than one in a single book, like JoJo. --- Note: A bug was triggered which caused this book to be split into two. Check my profile for both parts. --- 2nd place winner in the Star Gazing Awards fantasy category in 2020. --- Cross-posted in WordPress, RoyalRoad, Sufficient Velocity, and Rainobu.

Become the Strongest Master With a Genius Student by VheenaD

Long ago, there was a legend about a powerful cultivator from the Fallen Rainbow Kingdom. The cultivator raised seven disciples whose mere name alone was capable of shaking all realms. However, many experts who researched hundreds of thousands of years of history suspected the story to be a fabrication as no evidence of the person or his legacy was found. "Nonsense! How dare they say master story is just a legend!!!" "There's no way I'm going to accept what they're saying! If it wasn't for the fact that this planet is where the sect and master used to live, I would have destroyed them!" There was a shout in a simple food stall from a girl with no satisfaction. But strangely the scream did not disturb the other guests, as if the scream had not been heard by them. "S-students calm down, it's been too long anyway. With the short lifespan of humans, they must have just assumed it was a legend. Master is not offended." Replied a young girl who was sitting with the screaming girl. "No master! I can't just take their word for it! They have to know the true story master!"The girl continued in an angry tone and continued her endless rant. _______ Well, this story is about an ordinary man who became a woman (lost his balls) when he was transferred to the world of Xianxia. Because of his stupidity, he tricked people into becoming his apprentice just to make his life easier, but regretted it because he was afraid of being found out about his lie (because he was an ordinary man? who pretended to be a cultivator). Occasional weird wording and grammar, English isn't my first language. The book cover is from AI.
