Our story begins with Gruner, an orphan boy living in a foster home, starting his morning as he always does - rising before the sunrise to attend to his chores and care for the livestock. While performing his tasks, Gruner's mind often wanders and he daydreams of the world beyond, stirring curious longings within him.
Dissatisfied with the prospect of spending his life confined to this small village, one day while in the forest a ferocious storm suddenly erupts. Through the pouring rain and cracks of thunder, Gruner spots a mysterious orb of bright white light. Compelled by intrigue, he trails the glowing sphere deep into the woods until it explodes in a flash, raining down golden dust and revealing a small blue-glowing sphere etched with celestial symbols.
The next morning, Gruner presents his curious finding to the village astrologer. After a hasty examination, the old sage warns that the orb possesses mystical powers and will inexorably alter the course of Gruner's destiny. Left with more questions than answers, Gruner is now entangled in a magical mystery as the orb's true purpose - and his own future - remain obscured in the night sky's inky veil. Our hero's adventure has only just begun.

Shapeless Hero
Identity crisis? What's that? ---- An earthling's soul was born into an incompatible, human body. Their muscles misbehaved, their skin and body felt like a rigid shell, and their weak constitution left little options for any activities outside of paperwork, books and anything on a screen at home. Then the divine beings tried to correct the mistake and removed the mismatched soul from its unfitting body, slinging it to a distant world with a new body to control. The human flesh-prison replaced with the unlimited options of a shapeshifter, the soul has now a magic-filled world to explore. Grow fur for a mountain hike, grow gills and fins for a deep dive. It's time to catch up on decades worth of missed travels and activities. But who wants to deal with the flesh-craving predators called shapeshifters? Another global purge could start, if the freshly transferred soul shows its abilities too much. ---- The rankings are a mystery to me - especially after this story made it to No. 1 under the shapeshifter tag (and others). Welcome to fantasy amateur hours! This is my first time writing that kind of novel. Hopefully there's a bit of improvement along the way. Feel free to tell me what works or not! Occasionally drowning in irl-work, so chapters will be published semi-regularly, whenever I find some time to write. (Usually updated at least once per week.) If it wasn't obvious already: Cover art made by yours truly.![Transmigrated As An Adventuring Prince?![DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/279898602-256-k277557.jpg)
Transmigrated As An Adventuring Prince?![DISCONTINUED]
I'm Yamato Kusuo! A former 19 year old college student. I was told by some sketchy gods I went into a coma. Don't ask me I don't remember why.. I was given a chance to transmigrate to another world to avoid boredom while my body lays still. I, like any other lucky bored teenager, agreed and was knocked into sleep right after. But now I'm told I'm a prince?! An adventuring prince?! Wait where am I?! Oi don't touch me! Tristan: (°ー°〃) I was just going to ask if your joining dinner.. Nathaniel: Let him be! That excuse of an adventurer got 'hurt'. Whitford : Goodness! Just eat before it gets cold. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ What the fuck?! What kind of party did I join?! SURPRISE SURPRISE!! I DECIDED I'D PUBLISH A STORY BEFORE I LOST INTEREST REAL QUICK! So! This might have slow updates because well... I'm a lazy ass person. When I publish this there might be another 4 chapters already ready to shoot but I'm still lazy :P Oh! And I update every two weeks so twice a month! We'll meet again ;))))) Disconrinued due to lost of motivation. Might be rewritten.Complete
Beyond The Nexus
"Oh, hello there! Didn't see you standing there, casually gazing into the multiverse like it's a souvenir shop. I bet you're wondering who I am, aren't you? Well, that depends-which version of me are we talking about? The charming genius? The reckless troublemaker? Or the guy who accidentally unleashed an army of sentient toasters on Universe 87-B? That one wasn't my fault, by the way. Mostly. I'm Dr. Remi Nexus, Omniversal Explorer, part-time troublemaker, and full-time genius. My Quantum Oscillator lets me jump between realities, uncovering secrets, dodging danger, and occasionally causing a disaster or two. But the multiverse isn't all fun and games. Something out there is watching... and trust me, it's weird. Care to join me? Don't say I didn't warn you."Complete

Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite)
In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.Complete

The Seven Deadly Beings: Shattered Universe(Book 1)
This story is about the Multiverse and pulls together 5 of my other stories I highly recommend you read them first in order to grasp the type of people the characters are. Julio Castellanos Trilogy, Guardian Wars: Prophecy of the Xaibere, The Elder Scrolls: Child of Two Worlds, Heroes of Earth: The Blue Entity Rises, and _Rodrgo1's Lantern Corps Unity ******************************************* Julio Castellanos disappeared at a moment of mass crisis leaving his son Derek Castellanos to deal with the threat of Kardia Pagos. He finds himself in a world which is run by gods of lesser nature know as the Divines. It is here where he learns of the multiverse and his counter parts. The one here known as Saulian Larethlock a half-breed which could possible relate to not fitting in. Decker Hail was pulled into a black hole, but ended up somewhere else someplace away from his guild mates. He encounters Julio Castellanos a lantern from the Green Lantern Corps. They both understand the science behind what is going on and Julio agrees to help Decker find his way back. Julio Castellanos still on his search for his rogue brother Essau is the first to meet the cosmic threat of Kistr a being made entirely of hate, anger, despair, and jealousy. P.S. I changed the name of the book so that it would be easier for me to name the second one.Complete![Hacking the Game Didn't Go as Intended [Part One] (Discontinued)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/362534227-256-k253197.jpg)

To escape a life of poverty, Daisuke attempted to hack the world's first VRMMORPG, Sehreneti Online. But things take an unexpected turn and he's transmigrated into the body of a newborn NPC - stranded in one of the most lawless, cutthroat regions of the game where ambition and cruelty reign. Fasten your seatbelt and follow Daisuke as he carves out his own piece of paradise in a broken world and forges his name into legend. What to expect: » Slow start, leading to an immensely satisfying power-up » Dark & Brutal Beginnings » Unlocks abilities at chapter 33 & the atmosphere becomes a bit more vanilla » Weak To Strong Male MC » Fast Leveling + Rare Magical Items » Stats + Hidden Abilities + LitRPG System » Explosions, Special-Grade Monsters, & Epic Battles
