Krysta (2015 ver.)
***** "Knock knock! Hey Krysta, I see you're awake now." "Yeah, I just...." I turned towards the person who had just spoken and was left speechless mid-sentence. Wow.... I was encountered with an impossible sight. There, next to the door was the most handsome guy I had ever seen or could have ever imagined. He had coal black hair that was long enough that you could grab but short enough that it still looked good. It was lush and flowed in good curves. He had green eyes that could cut through stone but could still melt your heart. His face was slender with hard edges but soft at the same time. His smile charming enough to make you weak but cruel enough to stab you. "You look like like an idiot. Haven't you ever seen a man before," he asked with amusement. ***** Krysta has been living in a dystopian future for as long as she can remember. She has no idea of her origin and has no memory before her 5th summer. One day while working in the fields a magnificent beast appears to take her to a magical world where she will discover her origin and a prophecy that tells her fate.

An ancient artifact that unlocks a hidden ability comes into his possession and will stay with him throughout his infinite life.

Not with these people._ Glancing around the table, he saw that everyone was looking at him, overtly and covertly, watching and waiting for his reaction. ... The young god stood up in excitement. _It just talked to me! I'm talking to it! This is so weird. What else can I ask it?_ ... _What should I say? I should say something, right?_ "Umm... Hi!" he managed to say. He stopped himself from wincing at his awkward greeting as he felt every eye in the room on him and maintained a casual and relaxed facade. _'Hi'? Really? After not seeing her for so long, all you can say is 'Hi!'? Say something else._ "I came here to see you." _No, idiot. Say something less obvious._ "And, uhh, talk to you." _What's wrong with you, self?_ ... "I don't know. I don't really know what to do anymore. I've done terrible things to him but I don't know anymore if I did the right thing."Complete
A Time Traveling Fairytale
Fate leads those who are willing but must push those who are not. One might interpret this saying a bit too literal. After all, Elena did end up on the bottom of a hill in the middle of a forest, suffering several injuries. But do not worry, fate loves a rebel and has something magical stored for our sarcastic heroine. Time travel. An adventure in the 16th century was not something our main character had in mind, but when her path is built with music and joy, it can't be that bad, right? Oh, who am I kidding. . . At first glance, it seemed to be the perfect fairytale for our main character; being able to experience the medieval time and be surrounded by enchantment wherever she went. She even meets a monk, blessed with the gift of music, who shares her passion and is willing to teach Elena the secrets of the piano. It's perfect. But it was only the tip of the iceberg. Elena's piece of tranquility is broken when she stumbles into another mess, leaving her caged and alone in the forest. Fortunately for our heroine, a prince crosses her path, helping her in her need. One might see this as the Universe's way for entertainment, or the fate's bizarre tactics to bring people together. Whatever it might be, it did not stop Elena from catching the eye of the prince of a powerful kingdom. Before anyone knows what's even happening, they're caught in the middle of it all; like a cat trapped in a yarn. After all, even the stone you trip on is a part of your destiny. What happens when the Universe, and basically everything between hell and heaven, is against you? Simple: it's a journey filled with unforgettable events. So buckle up, folks, because you are in for a ride of pirates, songs, chases, jokes, and a broken soul. After all, there is no flying from fate.Complete

Vampiric Soldier in a Cultivation World [ISEKAI & LitRPG]
After a decade of investment in a certain project of his and nothing to show for it, the man had began to give up hope. Immortality was still as far away as ever, and his ill-gotten gains had served no purpose as of yet. One day however, while he was going over his researcher's records in the lab, a tiny little wormhole appeared in front of him, rapidly shrinking from 3 meters in size down to nothingness. With little time to think about how this was even possible, and having nearly lost all hope on his current project on Earth, the man made the unthinkable decision. Leaving everything he had worked so hard for behind, and possibly even throwing away his life, he decisively stepped into the wormhole before it could disappear. Once he opened his eyes, the man found that he had aged by 30 years, but with no memories to show for it. It wouldn't stay this way for long however, as his missing memories started to return to him in a rapid fashion. Thrust into a magical world of cultivation, the opportunity to fulfil his dream had appeared in front of him. Will the man, now named Gaston according to one of his first memories, be able to survive his present circumstances and step foot into this magical world, or will he lose his life in the process? ----- Update Schedule: 5 Chapters a week (2x the size of the first 43), Mon and Tue off. ---------- 💌 Support me on Patreon to access 25+ future chapters and exclusive content: patreon.com/FilDus
Veil of Twilight
Finally, the vampire spoke again, his voice deadly serious. "So, the question remains: will you trust me and undertake this dangerous journey, or will you choose an end far less... glamorous?" I folded my arms to keep my hands from shaking. "So, if I help you, I risk everything. If I don't... I risk just as much, don't I?" My voice betrayed me, cracking on the last word. Amberfield is a city of secrets, and Masha has her share. But when her curiosity leads her into the depths of a forgotten dungeon, she awakens something far older-and far more dangerous-than she could have imagined. Bound to a reluctant alliance with a mysterious vampire, Masha is thrust into a world where shadows have teeth and trust may be deadlier than betrayal.
