When magical beasts cross into Japan through portals, magical huntresses (and some magical huntsmen) are there to slay them. Consisting of a group of teenagers and young adults working semi-independently under the guise of the Protection and Research Agency, they fight day in and day out for a variety of reasons, using special rings to transform and gain weapons to use in their battles, for which they get paid for each magical beast they kill and bonuses if they save anyone attacked by them.

One particular magical huntress, the sword-swinging orphan Ruka Kishio, is asked to join a small group of these hunters led by the charismatic Hana Miyashita, who herself wields a katana and is descended from former nobility, after Hana sees Ruka easily kill a beast by herself while on lunch break from school. Ruka, a girl with a troubled and at times traumatic past who usually fought alone, accepts after barely losing a sword duel to Hana. She soon finds herself bonding with the other members of the Fox Knights, in particular their second-in-command and only boy Yoshiro Arikawa despite the two of them frequently arguing, and she also finds herself becoming its third-in-command and primary trainer as they battle magical beast after magical beast.

However, Hana has deeper ambitions to restore the honor of her family name, and she aspires to attain power by any means necessary. Can Ruka help Hana with her dreams, or will she be swept up in them?

The Last Knights of Cambria Book 1: Echoes of Gideon by kullman

Gideon Saint is dying for something exciting to happen in his life. With his love of history, he figures an internship at the museum has to be a good start, right? Anything is better than listening to his parents argue or sitting alone in his room doing research no one but him seems to care about. A chance encounter with a magical ring leaves him transported to an alternate version of ancient Wales, or as it was sometimes called, Cambria. 1432 Wales, to be exact. Here magic is the most powerful weapon of all as kings vie for power. Good thing Gideon's teleportation from the present has also left him with the ability to use magic, and he's quickly regarded as a powerful wizard. In this timeline, Wales maintained it's independence, but that's about to change. Henry V is on the throne of the England, and the greatest warrior king England has ever had has set his sights on Wales. Can Gideon help save his newfound friends and master his new powers, while living a double life in the 21st century? Ahem, living people die, dying people live, Henry V is here and he's awesome despite being the main antagonist, everybody is vaguely gay, swords are described in loving detail, people are not, lovely platonic friendships, did we mention swords? Yes, you may learn something about history, but that's a risk you'll have to take. Basically, think of this as a Percy Jackson type of adventure, but it's historical fiction instead of Greek gods. The narrator is 15 and the major supporting characters are 14, 17, and 19. That said, there's nothing in the way of content that's inappropriate for a younger reader. As always if you're not here to go on a fun little adventure find a different story. Trigger/Content: very mild language, some magic violence, fantasy violence. Self-harm is briefly discussed. Adoption issues are discussed as well as brief scenes of a abusive family. Characters briefly mention crushes and or dating, no real innuendos.

Muzan cares about himself and only my himself. No matter how strong some demons are, he never really cared about any of them. He only needed them to find the blue spider lily and kill Tanjiro. Except one demon made a exception. The demon killed the boy with hanafuda earrings. . Muzan never expected to be this demon. But he knew the demon had a crush him so.. Why not like him back as a reward? After all Muzan did like him a little bit... I have seen barely Enzan books. The ones I find are complete or discounted. I'm making this book as long as I can and complete like that. I am a huge multi-shipper. This book will be more focused on the 12 kizuki and none of the hashiras, the main 4, butterfly sisters, or the Kamaboko squad.

It Isn't Easy Being Queen by BrittanieCharmintine

Even teen evil queens need love. Right? (Or at least a handsome sword-fighting minion to do their bidding!) *** Bad things happen when Rowen is around and the worst part is, she has no idea why until a massive family secret sends her on a fantastical journey to fight her evil fate. Will Rowen fold into the forces of dark magic or honor her true self? *** On the surface, Rowen Keckilpenny-Brown seems like a normal teenage girl with normal teen problems-no boyfriend, overprotective parents, and no friends other than a three-legged cat. But her wild red hair, reptilian eyes, and legendary temper say otherwise. When Rowen accidentally blows up the school gym, she discovers a dark secret her fathers have kept from her-she's the heir to an evil queen's throne. The current evil queen, Petronella Grimshaw, is desperate to crown Rowan the new sovereign and blackmails her into traveling to the queendom. Rowen has one month to learn how to evil queen, and it's not easy because there are those in the castle who want her dead, witches are disappearing, and an annoyingly cute swordsman keeps distracting her. Worst of all, Rowan finds herself in a duel against her biggest enemy: herself. She must fight her true fate, in the process uncovering deep familial mysteries and perhaps the biggest secret ever...That maybe, just maybe, she deserves to be loved after all. Princess Diaries meets the School for Good & Evil with a touch of Wednesday Addams thrown in for bad luck. The best kind! Cover by @ClarissaNorth

ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina

FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains a few depictions of blood, violence, and eldritch elements.

My Light In The Darkness. by Enanan_Shin0n0me

Prince Tsukasa Tenma had always been very proud to serve his own kingdom. He was adored and admired by his people, and he got the honour to protect them not only as their prince, but as the head of their knights force, he brought light to his kingdom, as if he was a radiant star that could never burn itself out. Presenting himself more as a friend than a higher class, he had made many friends and was grateful for every opportunity that they had given him as their prince, and friend. Prince Rui Kamishiro, on the other hand, was the polar opposite of that of the prince of light. He despised his role as a prince, constantly wanting to run away from his responsibilities to live a life with no restraints. However after an incident that had occured when he had once tried that, Rui drowned himself in the darkness of his own kingdom and began to accept his role as its ruler. He was feared by most of his kingdoms residents, and cared not for in-formalities from those who he did not share an original bond with. Perhaps all they needed was each others presence to balance their qualities? This is a Project Sekai multi-ship fantasy au fan-fiction, focusing around Ruikasa! ⚠ ART ISNT MINE!

"̷私はここの悪魔です Watashi wa koko no akumadesu. "̷ Original Title of Book: We, Twisted Ones Cover by: (myself) @iisbeissues_2017 Theme song; SIAMES- The Wolf\ SEKAI NO OWARI- [ANTI HERO] ××× "Are you scared of falling in love?" "I'm terrified because you'll be the only one falling." ××× Breaded by that of a demon's goal to become a god and the seven sins of mortals, not only was the gladiator of the cruel demon Beelzebub a monster of other's stories. But that of her own. Blake Blueray was born into the world of sin for one and one purpose only, and that was to bring fear to whomever opposed her master's wishes or her family's name. But there's a time in every girl's life where sometimes, you just gotta become a rebel. With the help of her best friend, a rather daunted nerd, and a good looking hotshot, will Blake be the demon's destruction? Or will she give him total control? |Some tags dealing with dark topics have been omitted in this listing for the sake of preserving dramatic tension. The story may or may not contain any descriptions of graphic violence. This story explores fear, torment, corruption, and loss of self identity. My focus here is on transformation through ascending cruelty. Please note that this story is more a vent for me than anything else, so it won't be updated very much.| I welcome feedback, especially constrctive criticism. Thanks for reading!
