The Book of Adventures [EDITING SOON]
A child on the brink of death, and when faced with Death herself, the child just couldn't bear it and he begged. "Lady... Can you please end my suffering?" The lady in velvet cloak looked down at him, confused. 'Why does this human asks for his death? Doesn't he want to live and take revenge on those who have hurted him?' She thought. His peculiarity piqued her interest. And instead of taking the child's life like how he wishes, the lady in velvet cloak took him in. Will life blossom fondly to the child after being abandoned by his family? Will the lady even understand the meaning of life for others? Or will they end up being fond of one another? "Lily, too much fondness will only ruin you again," the darkness whispered inside of her as memories of her former life flashed on her mind. ∘ ───▪─── ∘ The Book of Adventures Disclaimer: AN ORIGINAL NOVELLA WRITTEN IN ENGLISH.

Destiny Reckoning
AARYAN never believed in fate. Born into hardship and shaped by struggle, he clawed his way out of the dirt only to find himself trapped in an unforgiving world where the strong prey upon the weak. To survive, he relies on sharp instincts, careful calculations, and an iron will-never blind faith. Yet, when an expedition goes awry, AARYAN is thrust into a world he never sought-a world of cultivators, ruthless ambition, and forces beyond his understanding. For the first time, true power-the kind that could rewrite his fate-is within reach. Forced into a ruthless sect where deception is survival and strength is law, AARYAN is caught in a web of scheming elders, ruthless rivals, and unseen hands shaping his fate. With only his wits, a growing mastery of cultivation, and an uncanny knack for getting into (and out of) absurd situations, he must carve his own path-one not dictated by destiny. But fate is not so easily denied. Shadows of the past stir, whispers of something greater call to him, and something far older watches from the dark. In a world where the heavens dictate the fates of all, AARYAN has only one goal: to prove that his life is his to control. Even if it means standing against the very will of the heavens themselves.

The Last Bargain
The sun hung low over the bustling town of Shinsenchou, casting an orange glow across the winding streets. Amidst the fading energy of the day, Shin Mirai, a young man plagued by self-doubt and a sense of failure, shuffled down a narrow alley. Shin had always felt like an outsider in Shinsenchou, a place where abilities were celebrated and power revered. His lack of any special talents had earned him the self-deprecating title of "Humanity's Greatest Loser." Shin's chance encounter with a group of thugs would soon set in motion a series of events that would challenge his perception of himself and the world around him. To the thug's surprise, he was able to perfectly mimic the fighting techniques of the town guards, effortlessly defending himself. This unexpected display of skill piqued the interest of Zento Dassou, the heir to the prestigious Dassou clan, who had been struggling to master his family's signature technique. Meanwhile, in the Kasetsu clan stronghold, Raito Kasetsu grappled with his own philosophical crisis. Blessed with the ability to detect lies, Raito had grown disillusioned with the world, believing that the future was nothing but a series of false promises. His nihilistic worldview was challenged, however, when reports of disturbing phenomena began to surface - entire villages vanishing without a trace, leaving behind only perfect, empty voids. In a tense and awe-inspiring ceremony, Shin, Raito, and Zento combined their abilities and knowledge, successfully reforging the Divine Covenant. The divine judgment ceased, and the disappeared lands and people began to return, though altered by their experience. Shin, Raito, and Zento, forever changed by their shared ordeal, parted ways, each facing an uncertain but promising future, bound by the renewed covenant between the mortal and divine realms.Complete
