Waking up, I found myself in a world where Pokémon and humans coexisted. Looking at the slightly youthful, yet familiar and unfamiliar face in the mirror, words like "Release Master," "Starting Stat Reset," and "Ultimate Oblivious Man" floated through my mind. No, no!

[Ayanokouji in Class A] He is a monster on parole, granted a single chance at freedom. She is a queen whose crusade has lost its meaning. For Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, placed in the top-ranked Class A, the only goal is to remain perfectly still. His three-year mission is simple: perform the role of an ordinary student under the constant watch of an observer that fears him. Prove he is no longer a weapon, and he will earn a life. But his performance is immediately complicated by two forces: Sakayanagi Arisu, the daughter of his warden, a rival who seeks to shatter his peaceful façade and expose the masterpiece she knows is hidden beneath. And Morishita Ai, a social anomaly who offers him a dangerous form of sanctuary. The chance to be manipulated, a role he must play to prove his humanity. In a school designed to measure potential, he must hide his. In a world that demands change, the most terrifying thing you can do is refuse.

In a kingdom where loyalty is a vow and love is a luxury, Sir Alarion carries the weight of his father's legacy like armor. Bound by duty from the moment tragedy struck, he became the king's most trusted knight-strategist, leader, and unyielding protector. Yet in his heart, a quiet longing remains for the one who understood him long before duty claimed him. Princess Elowen grew up beside him, sharing laughter and stolen moments, yet she knows the man he has become-a man of silence, discipline, and unbroken vows. Their connection survives in fleeting glances, unspoken words, and memories of a simpler time, even as the court whispers with envy and treachery festers in the shadows. Amid wars, betrayal, and a kingdom teetering on the edge, love and duty collide. Some bonds cannot be severed, even when the world demands it, and some sacrifices are carved into the heart with the sharp edge of a sword. "The Silence Worn in Armor" is a story of love restrained by honor, hearts weighed by legacy, and the quiet tragedies of those who choose duty over desire.

⇨ Slow Burn ⇨ Plot/story emphasis During the fourth year of the White Room operation, Atsuomi Ayanokoji created the other experiment alongside the 4th generation. Featuring a sole student, unbeknownst to the public or the rest of the cohort - Y/n. With too many ideas and too little time, the continuation of the White Room project depended on innovation and results. With conflicting ideas of the 4th generation syllabus and the soon-to-be 5th generation, Professor Ayanokoji came up with this compromise. Yet when the political conflict occurred, Y/n - a child of an affair - had nowhere to go and instead found herself at the Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School (ANHS). And what's even more surprising... The 4th generations prodigy, Professor Ayanokoji's own son, also happened to enroll... But he's in class D...? ( slow updates bc busy D: )

In a Tokyo where reality had been rewritten into death games, survival is no longer a matter of chance but it's the only rule. Every card flipped is a trial: Spades demanded strength, Hearts tore at trust, Clubs fractured cooperation, and Diamonds twisted logic into weapons. Naoya Mikage was built for systems. A semi-pro gamer turned streamer, he lived by cooldowns, risk tables, and meta-strats. Strategy was instinct. Trust was optional. And carrying solo was always safer than relying on a team that could drag him down. To him, life was a series of games waiting to be optimised. But the Borderland wasn't a simulation. There were no respawns, no viewers to entertain, no reset button when allies die. The games strip players down past logic, and every victory costs a piece of yourself forcing them to face the one mechanic Naoya never mastered: connection. As the lines between strategy and humanity blur, his solo-carry mindset begins to crack. He's always been Player One. But in a world where the wrong choice kills and isolation is a death sentence, will Naoya keep fighting alone or finally find someone worth calling his Player Two? ----------------------------------------------- Alice in Borderland is owned by Haro Aso

In a galaxy where victory is often indistinguishable from ruin, Svenja Kroenke rises as an unlikely strategist-disciplined, quiet, and unwilling to purchase peace at any cost. Opposite her stands Thrawn: brilliance without sentiment, order without mercy. Svenja vs Thrawn is not a story of easy heroes or simple battles, but of intelligence under constraint, institutional pressure, and the moral weight of decisions that cannot be undone. For readers who prefer restraint over spectacle, and consequence over comfort. Note: * Will be published on RoyalRoad as well
