    Crown of the Four Sigils Volume 1 - The Joker Arc In the neon-drenched megacity of Veloria, where power is currency and the night never truly ends, an ancient crown has lain dormant for fifteen long years. Now it stirs. A lost relic forged in forgotten wars, the Crown of the Four Sigils holds the key to dominion over four elemental kingdoms: Glacarys of eternal ice, Ashkara of raging flame, Vortigern of endless storm, and Nyxveil of absolute shadow. Four legendary knights were once bound to it-warriors of unmatched strength, speed, and silence. Their destiny was sealed in blood and prophecy. Volume 1 follows the awakening of that crown and the chaos it unleashes in a city already teetering on the edge of collapse. Power struggles, hidden sigils, brutal betrayals, and a villain who laughs while the world burns-this is not a story of heroes saving the day. This is the story of what happens when the night celebrates... and the crown chooses who lives. Read it now.

    Blackvale doesn't forget its sins. It buries them. Jinx learned early that mercy doesn't exist in the Broken Street. After her family is destroyed by lies whispered in the dark, she survives by refusing to kneel-to hunger, to fear, or to the city's rulers. But when She awakens the Heart buried beneath Blackvale, she becomes something far more dangerous than a rebel. Chosen. Bound. Watched. As the city fractures and ancient systems awaken,Jinx is hunted by nobles who fear her, Wardens built to erase her, and a power that believes obedience is destiny. The Heart offers her a throne. Jinx intends to burn it instead. Because some cities deserve to fall. And some monsters refuse to be owned.

    Once, the world was ordered. Or so the histories claim. Beyond the veil of recorded time lie continents shaped by judgment and fire, seas ruled by unseen hands, and skies claimed by those who decide who may rise and who must fall. Empires stand upon foundations they no longer remember building, guarded by powers they only half understand. Between Paradise abandoned and Hell yet unclaimed stretches a long descent-through nations hardened by conquest, through truths buried so deeply they have become law. Old oaths fracture. Ancient forces stir. And what was erased from memory begins to walk again. This is not a tale of salvation. It is the chronicle of a world moving, step by step, toward its reckoning.

    Sa mata ng mga taga San Luarte, si Iris Samantha Villacorta ay isang guro na kagalang-galang sa papel-maayos kumilos, matalino, at laging kontrolado ang sarili. Ngunit may iilan na nagsasabing isa s'yang psychopath ngunit hindi nila batid na totoo ngang pumapatay s'ya. Bata pa lamang si Iris ay may kakaiba na sa kanya. Ang tanging nagbibigay-kapanatagan sa kanya ay ang pagkitil sa buhay ng mga taong sa kanyang paningin ay masama. Para sa kanya, hindi ito krimen-ito ay hustisya. Ngunit ang mga pagpatay na iyon ay banta sa kapangyarihan ng kanyang amang si Ronan Villacorta, ang respetadong mayor ng San Luarte. Upang maprotektahan ang sariling pangalan at pulitikal na ambisyon, imbes na ipaubaya sa batas ang anak, nagpasya si Ronan na itali si Iris sa isang lalaking inaakala niyang makakapigil at makakakontrol sa kanya-isang detective-sa paniniwalang magbabago ito kapag nagkaroon na ng asawa. Si Ace Rhett Delmariz ay matagal nang naghahanap ng hustisya para sa pagkamatay ng kanyang mga magulang-ngunit ang kasong iyon ay matagal nang isinara ng batas ngunit hindi kailanman isinara ng kanyang konsensya. Dahil sa impluwensiya ni Ronan at sa pangakong tulong upang muling buksan ang kaso, pumayag si Rhett sa isang kasunduang magpapabago sa kanyang buhay: ang pakasalan si Iris. Habang tumatagal ang kanilang pagsasama, unti-unting nagdududa si Rhett na may mali sa kanyang asawa-ngunit paano kung ang pag-ibig ay dahan-dahan ding sumibol sa kanya? Hanggang saan kaya niya kayang ipikit ang mga mata? At kung ang mga pinapatay ni Iris ay tunay na masasama, sino nga ba ang dapat na hatulan?

    What Bruises Teach Us is a dark romantic drama where love doesn't heal-it hunts. Mara Ellison tells herself her fiancé's bruises are accidents... until she follows him into an abandoned warehouse and discovers an underground fight club that feels less like crime and more like ritual. She should run. She should be horrified. Instead, her pulse races-because the violence doesn't repulse her. It awakens her. As secrets turn into seduction, and devotion curdles into obsession, Mara stops asking how to save Julian Cross-and starts asking how far he'll bleed for her. But the deeper she sinks, the more terrifying the truth becomes: Julian didn't lure Mara into darkness. He recognized it in her... and followed. When the ring finally claims a life and the world comes crashing down, Mara makes one last, devastating choice-one that proves their love was never about redemption. It was about becoming untouchable. Because some love stories don't end in heartbreak. They end in hunger.

    Selama hampir satu abad, Pelabuhan Pradana menjadi urat nadi perdagangan gelap di pesisir selatan. Di balik arus ekspor-impor resmi, pelabuhan itu menyembunyikan bisnis yang lebih kejam: penyelundupan, pembunuhan tanpa mayat, dan perdagangan organ manusia. Segalanya dikendalikan oleh Riki, penguasa logistik yang membangun kerajaannya di atas ketakutan dan darah buruh. Empat belas ribu kuli bekerja setiap hari, tak menyadari bahwa sebagian dari mereka hanya angka-menunggu giliran untuk menghilang. Jauh dari pelabuhan, di Kota Suri, hidup seorang pria pendiam bernama Gio. Selama tiga puluh tahun, ia mengelola rumah kos sederhana, melarang alkohol, dan menutup rapat masa lalunya. Tidak ada yang tahu bahwa Gio pernah menjadi pemimpin buruh legendaris-manusia yang dijuluki powerhouse-yang meninggalkan dunia kekerasan setelah sebuah pengkhianatan berdarah. Ketenangan Gio hancur ketika sahabat lamanya, Winarman, seorang ilmuwan jenius, meninggal secara misterius. Kematian itu disebut serangan jantung. Namun hasil otopsi menunjukkan kebohongan: Winarman dibunuh. Penyelidikan Gio membawanya kembali ke Pelabuhan Pradana, mempertemukannya dengan Shanty, putri Winarman-perempuan cerdas yang dipaksa mengoperasikan mesin kremator listrik ciptaan ayahnya untuk menghilangkan mayat manusia. Mesin yang dahulu ditolak negara kini menjadi alat paling berharga bagi kejahatan terorganisir. Di balik semua itu berdiri Robi / Agum / Jun, polisi menyamar yang berkhianat, pembunuh Winarman, dan dalang yang mengubah hukum menjadi alat pemerasan. Lebih berbahaya lagi, ada Kiki-mantan polisi wanita yang menyamar sebagai kekasih lugu, namun sebenarnya predator paling brutal dalam permainan ini. Saat satu per satu pengkhianatan terbuka, Gio dipaksa menghadapi kenyataan paling pahit

    After an ally backstabs the Grand Hero, while world falls into chaos. The ally establishes himself as the Great Demon Lord and enslaves whole human kind. Whole generation faced this chaos. Rampaging of demons and all cruelty until a young man decides to change this fate and creates his own team (while causing much chaos to man Demon Lords himself) and starts the journey to travel back in time and stop the backstab and also bring the hero from past to defeat the Great Demon Lord of their timelines since after backstabbing Hero, the power level of that ally (who is Great Demon Lord in main Protagonist's timeline) surpassed effects of timelines. Will the team reach to Hero back in time? Will they succeed in returning to future? Will hero be able to defeat this Great Demon Lord now? -------------------------------------------------- (IMP Points:- 1) Main Protagonist will be less plot armour and surely even I can't tell whether he will survive till end so there will always be the tension. 2) There might be few experimental arcs I may write if I get the response I am expecting and those arcs will delve more into power scaling and world building.

    A woman who serves as the conscience of a celebrated hero slowly realizes that her role is not to guide the story, but to cleanse it of guilt after the damage is done. When her moral certainty is repeatedly acknowledged-and just as repeatedly ignored-she begins to understand that goodness has no power in a world that rewards momentum over mercy. Halfway through the tale, she stops advising and starts intervening, turning her ethics into a weapon and waging a quiet war against the story itself.

    📖 RELIQUIA MUNDUS 🕯️ The world did not end when the gods failed. It simply... became silent. When prayers went unanswered and miracles turned into forgotten relics, the world was forced to learn how to exist without the voice of the heavens. Alexa is not a hero. He was not chosen by prophecy, crowned by destiny, nor saved by light. He is only someone who chose to stay- in a world already abandoned by its gods. Alongside ancient relics that still remember blood and sacrifice, alongside beings who have lost their purpose but not their will, Alexa walks through the ruins of mythology: fallen gods, frozen worlds, and truths too heavy to be spoken. On that path, he meets Eri- a small child left alone in a world too cruel to allow her tears to matter. It was not fate that brought them together, but a single, quiet decision: to not turn away. RELIQUIA MUNDUS is a story about: a world after the gods have failed, ancient weapons that still carry the will of the past, sacrifices no one ever witnessed, and a hand that chose to remain, even when the world demanded release. This is not a story about saving the world. It is a story about why the world is still worth saving.

Red was never just a color. It was a warning. - " Cinque. Quindici, Cinquanta. Sempre gli stessi numeri." ( 5, 15, 50. Always the same fucking numbers. ) Violence was language. Control was safety. Weakness was deadly. She learned the same truth in her own way. Her world was narrower, colder, sharper than any playground. Instead of drawing lines on skin, she was etching jagged paths across flesh with the katana's blade. Every movement calculated. Every glance scanned for threats. Every step was measured against a ledger no one else could read. Mistakes were never forgiven. Mercy was a weakness. Both trained to survive. Trained to dominate. Trained to be remembered - or feared - even if no one could say their names aloud. And yet, even in parallel, they existed as strangers. Two legacies carving paths through the same world, unaware, unyielding. Every choice they made built walls. Every word they spared sharpened blades in the dark. Ils se sont déjà haïs. ( They already hated eachother. ) And forgetting, when it came, was not relief. It was subtraction. What remained did not sleep. It watched. It counted. It learned the shape of fear before it arrived. Distance collapsed like walls on brittle bones. Breath seized. Time cracked. There was no warning. No pause. No mercy. When it broke, it tore through everything- blood, bone, silence. The world itself flinched. Nothing surviv

    The story of how the infamous Horcrux diary ended up in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and in the wrong way-and it led to the right consequences. • What? A proper old‑school romp in fanfic trappings. Scratch the surface and you'll find social speculative fiction, a coming‑of‑age tale, a psychological thriller, and a good deal else. • Who? Readers who've had their fill of harems, secret legacies and overpowered heroes, and want some solid storytelling with soft humor, fully realised characters and plot. • Who won't it suit? Anyone on the hunt for the 'steamy stuff.' There's none of that here-absolutely none. Sorry. Really, though, it's just a story for people who love magic with all their heart.

    In Belaria, magic is power- and power belongs to those who wield it. Alya Velmire has spent her whole life wearing the mask of the perfect heir-despite being born to a murdered non-magical mother and raised as a blemish on a prestigious mage bloodline. When a political mission goes wrong, Alya falls into the hands of Sirius Lioren: a rebel leader, a Union idealist, and the first person to look at her and see the truth she's terrified to face. "When was the last time your family made you feel like you're enough?" The question shatters the world she thought she knew. As her carefully constructed life collapses, Alya spirals into a world where loyalty means complicity, and strength means becoming a monster. But some choices can't be undone. Some lines, once crossed, lead only to devastation. And when everything she loves burns to ash, there will be only one way to make it right: Go back. Change everything. No matter the cost. A dark fantasy of political intrigue, forbidden magic, and a love that transcends time itself. (You can find this story on Royal Road, too)
