Build A Scientific And Technological Civilization ( Book 2 )
In a universe where every person awakens a Planet as the foundation of their power, the strength of one's civilization determines their might. From martial worlds where warriors reign, to mystic realms teeming with magic, to ethereal domains of immortal cultivators, every awakened Planet becomes a reflection of its creator's path. But Alexander Sebastian is different. Reborn with memories from a modern, Earth-like world, he forges something never seen before: a Technological Civilization. While others summon Qi, Mana, or Spiritual Power, Sebastian builds factories, launches satellites, and commands fleets of starships. With logic as his weapon and science as his foundation, Sebastian begins to shake the very foundations of this Supernatural cosmos. When a Star Destroyer punches through planets and dimensional weapons turn worlds into nothing more than paper, even the proudest civilizations must bow before the cold, unrelenting force of progress. Witness a tale where science defies fantasy, and technology becomes the ultimate path to dominance. _____ This is a translation.

A New Dawn to Conquer
For centuries, the world has been plagued by endless wars, a cycle of bloodshed and destruction. Billions perished, their lives meaningless to the world. Empires rose and fell, their banners torn apart in the chaos of conflict, as humanity wielded its greatest achievements not for progress, but for war. Innovation became a tool of violence, creating weapons of unimaginable power, only to see them turned against the very civilizations that created them. Amid the chaos, one nation stood apart, a beacon of hope and technological supremacy: the Imperial Federation of Alnania. Forged by centuries of unrelenting conflict, the Federation rose to become the world's mightiest superpower. Its people, hardened by history, embraced a singular philosophy, "Progress through Unity, and Peace through Dominance". The Federation was now getting ready for its most recent campaign, the invasion of the Republic of Volkov. An attractive opportunity was offered by the Republic's fragility, which was plagued by internal insurrection and administrative collapse. For at the end of this, they shall impose a new world order. True peace, they believed, could only be achieved through the Federation's iron hand. But as the Federation stood ready to strike, the impossible happened. In a flash of light that defied reason, the entire nation was transported to a strange new world. A realm of of magic, and mythical creatures. Filled with empires and nations with their own ambitions. Faced with this mysterious new world, the Imperial Federation saw not despair, but opportunity. Armed with their technological might and indomitable spirit, they prepared to forge a new destiny. The chaos of this world would be molded into order, and the Federation would bring progress, unity, and peace- on their terms. A New Dawn to Conquer has arrived. "A fanfiction story inspired by みのろう's Summoning Japan, but in this version, the New World is far more dangerous and far more different-than the one we know."
Godlsayers - Pilot (Episode 1)
Godslayers is about correcting a mistake. A mistake made by three kid geniuses who inherited a Corporate Technology Empire. They attempt to utilize Dark Tech to change the world with a new generation of technologies. Most important of all this new tech was a clean, efficient and totally renewable source of energy given freely to the world, an attempt to usher Earth into a golden age. They never asked their selves if the world was ready. Battle after battle that claimed nations, oceans and a third of the world's population within one year. By the second year, only three factions remained, political amalgams of financial, military and technological interests. High casualty and destructive rates refined combat, and Dark Tech's emerging technologies- unbridled by energy restrictions- were corrupted into a new version of warfare. The BADB Frames took over the battlefield. Exoskeletal marvels- walking tanks. These suits made the soldiers of the future nearly invincible, while giving them destructive abilities of such raw power and precision that conflict was forever altered. The pilots of these suits were almost all pulled from a previously untapped civilian resource: gamers. Suddenly, age was not a restriction. What's left of Dark Tech exists in three Neutral Zones spread throughout the globe. Three "war free" zones that house civilians who wish to remain outside the war. But a shadow beneath what's left of the world's political system upsets this balance and a secret group known only as The Keepers push the factions past their fear of Dark Tech and into the zones of neutrality. Dark Tech unleashes a new faction on the world- a fighting force that has taken high technology and martial skill to a new level. A group of warrior monk gamers that once again change the face of battle and square off against the faction's armies single-handedly.Complete

The Debt Collectors War
Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States.

She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to.

States have been separated by color and traits and have their own strict rules for their inhabitants to follow and live by. Four out of fifty states remain, one of those being New York. Bay Zachary is an eighteen girl who lives in New York, a state now known as the Pure State. She has always felt out of place in her state and has a desire to venture past her state's borders.

Quickly, her self-desires to leave the deteriorating state turns into a mission to save her home state from the same fate of forty-five others. The Jotunn are eliminating states one-by-one, like dominoes toppling over. They must make an effort, no matter how minuscule the odds are to save what little is left. One nation? Under God? Indivisible? Liberty and Justice? The United States, only, the states were united no more, and they hadn't been for quite some time.Complete
