When a forgotten library yields its last secret, Selene Ardyn's life changes forever. A young scholar with a restless heart, she uncovers the Arcane Codex .. an ancient book that breathes with power, its pages whispering in languages no mortal should understand. But the Codex is no ordinary tome. Bound within its ink is a sapphire scaled dragon, Caelith, a creature of fire, memory, and destiny who chooses Selene as his keeper.

Marked by its magic, Selene is thrust into a world of shadow and wonder, hunted by warlords who crave dominion, sorceresses who thrive on darkness, and the Archivist , an eternal wraith sworn to guard the Codex at any cost. With unlikely allies at her side and betrayal lurking close, Selene must unravel the Codex's secrets before its power reshapes the world in ruin.

But every answer comes at a price.
Every page she turns demands a sacrifice.
And the Codex has been waiting .. centuries , for someone exactly like her.

The Arcane Codex is a sweeping tale of magic, betrayal, and destiny .. a journey where a scholar becomes a sorceress, a girl becomes a guardian, and a dragon becomes more than legend.

The little gluttonous child needs to eat by Alkaysare
168 parts Ongoing
Yao Yao was born as a little glutton, her appetite rivaling half a mountain. One day, the old Taoist who adopted her passed away in meditation. At just three and a half years old, Yao Yao had no choice but to pack her small bag and head down the mountain to find her senior master. By chance, she ended up saving a wealthy tycoon from a car accident and became the adopted daughter of the prestigious Gu family. At first, everyone in the Gu family opposed the idea. The Gu family matriarch tapped her cane and said, "Raising someone else's child? Careful not to end up with an ingrate!" The Gu family head, Gu Xuesong, said indifferently, "Picked up halfway? Who knows what kind of trouble she might bring." From the eldest to the seventh brother, their response was unanimous: "We don't want a sister!" But this little girl, rejected by the entire family, proved herself after joining the Gu household. She resolved the business partner issues that even Gu Xuesong couldn't handle, bringing in so many contracts that they couldn't sign them all. She cured the Gu matriarch's chronic leg pain, to the point where the old lady was now striding around effortlessly... Even the seven Gu brothers, one after another, benefited greatly from her presence. It was only then that the Gu family realized they had brought home a treasure. From then on, the Gu family's attitude completely changed. The Gu matriarch: "Yao Yao, do you want some cream puffs? Grandma will buy them for you." Gu Xuesong: "Yao Yao, do you want a private jet? Daddy will have one sent over to take you for a ride." The Gu brothers: "Yao Yao, do you want..." And so, Yao Yao secured herself a meal ticket-one of the highest quality! ================== Note: get access to 100+ Advance Chapters on my patreon.com/flokixy

The Duke Fell for the Villainess

200 parts Complete

She was just a tired grade school teacher in the modern world- unappreciated, overworked, and denied her promotion year after year. Her only escape was her favorite otome game... until a tragic accident with a banana peel ended her life. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't in her small apartment anymore. She was in a luxurious mansion. In a child's body. The villainess of her favorite game. Born as the real daughter of a Marquis, she knew how her story was supposed to end: starvation, betrayal, poison, and death. Her stepmother and stepsister would steal everything from her, and her own father would let her die without a tear. But this time, she refuses to play the role of a doomed villainess. Armed with memories from her past life, loyal brothers at her side, and a sharp tongue sharpened by years of teaching, she'll rewrite fate itself. Yet the world of nobility is more dangerous than she imagined- scheming crown princes, false heroines, poisonous stepmothers, and a cold northern Duke whispered to be a beast. But what if the "beast" turns out to be the one man who sees her for who she truly is?
