Zombie Apocalypse: I Have Safe Zone Superpower

The beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.

Being modern means being rude to people on the street who are below your rank—That is what they believe. I find this all frustrating, why move with a state of mind that could as well kill you someday. You don't know if this person is a lawyer, a far relative, a doctor, a politician. But you already get the gist, don't you? And like any other teenagers my age, I really want to run away from all this. It's not like I am an orphan or from a poor household. I am from a family which is a standard class in economical terms in this world. And yet, I want to run away. Haha! Anyways. I did succeed. I wonder at what cost? I am away from all that hostility of course... But now I am in another world. Not reincarnated. Not transmigrated to another body. I am with my own soul in my original body, but in another world. This world... is weird. Thinking back, I remember reading a strange book when I was young. This book actually speaks about this world. I am a character there. Funnier thing, I don't know what is up with it either. It appears to me that the writer decided they want to see the 'live-action' version of it. So now... I am the actor playing my ownself.

The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth, beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

Aemon of Dragonstone

Robert Baratheon gave Jon Snow Dragonstone. One day, he may wish he hadn’t. For Ned Stark’s bastard, the island is a poisoned gift. An ancient castle, a thinly populated lordship, and responsibilities most grown men would struggle to shoulder. But Jon has already lived a grown man’s life. Behind the boy’s eyes are the memories of a naval veteran, an engineer, and a man who spent years studying the armies of Rome. Given a second life in Westeros, he sees possibilities in the land he has been granted. He also knows how much work it will take to make anything of them. That work begins in the North. Years before he leaves Winterfell, Jon starts gathering the people he will take south. Boys become the companions he grows up with and the soldiers he trains beside. Craftsmen struggle through unfamiliar designs while each successful venture pays for the next. Slowly, a household takes shape, built around a young lord whose knowledge is becoming increasingly difficult to explain. These are the people he intends to build Dragonstone with. He will need them, because arriving with a title and a head full of ideas will only get him so far. Beyond the island lies the Narrow Sea, the wealth of the Free Cities, and opportunities worth sailing for. Jon has plans for ships and harbours, for trade and an army of his own. As those plans grow, they will draw the interest of men who have spent their lives deciding what happens in Westeros. And beneath everything he builds is a secret that could bring them all to his door. His name is Aemon Targaryen. What to expect: ~ Jon Snow self-insert with an experienced adult mind ~ Slow-paced kingdom building, beginning with an extended childhood arc in the North ~ Household development, friendships, and earned loyalty ~ Industry, trade, and the practical work of running a lordship ~ Roman-inspired military training and warfare ~ Naval exploration and an expanding journey into Essos ~ Multiple points of view, political consequences, and growing magical elements

The dragon's harem

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

Chaos Devourer System: My Classless Ascension

Join the Tr33House for character illustration.. https://discord.gg/rH2JQgY9M ——————————- Let’s try reading all the free chapters first before deciding if it’s worth your time or not?.. _________________________ In a time long forgotten, the world of Terra hovered on the edge of annihilation. Demons burst forth from the shadows, unleashing a wave of terror and destruction that ravaged the land. Just when hope seemed to flicker like a dying ember, a new force emerged — **the Awakened**. These extraordinary beings, with powers that defied imagination—telekinesis, flight, and cataclysmic abilities capable of obliterating entire cities—rose to challenge the onslaught. Against insurmountable odds, the Awakened battled valiantly, gradually reclaiming lost territories. Yet, the demons tenaciously clung to their dominion, and the war raged on. In a desperate bid to end the bloodshed, the rulers of the world brokered a fragile truce with the demonic forces, crafting an uneasy semblance of peace. But the scars of conflict ran deep, reshaping the very essence of the planet. Ecosystems trembled and transformed, empires rose from the ashes, and guilds sprouted like wildflowers in a storm. Ancient clans, long thought lost to time, revived and thrived amid the chaos. In this new world, power reigns supreme, the only currency accepted in the brutal economy of survival. In Terra, weakness is a death sentence — to be trodden upon by the strong, where only the mightiest can carve out their destiny. --- **************************** Monthly Goals. -400 golden tickets = 1 bonus chapter -600 golden tickets = 2 bonus chapters -1000 golden tickets = 3 bonus chapters.. ___________________

Flash Infinity

Barry Allen was supposed to be ordinary. A fresh college graduate working his first months as a CSI in Central City, living paycheck to paycheck in a cramped apartment, still haunted by the car crash that orphaned him as a child. That was the plan. A simple life. Then he woke up with memories that weren't his own. A DC fanboy from another world now inhabits Barry Allen's body, armed with knowledge of a future that hasn't happened yet and an understanding of a universe most people think is fiction. But this isn't the timeline he remembers. There's no Reverse-Flash. No time travel murder. No Harrison Wells with secret agendas. Just the natural flow of a world where heroes exist in the shadows and the Justice League is still years from forming. But knowledge is power, and this new Barry Allen refuses to waste it. Oliver Queen's yacht will sink in two weeks. The particle accelerator is years away. Clifford DeVoe hasn't built his Thinking Cap. Lian Yu still holds its secrets. And Barry? He's done being weak. Done being ordinary. Done waiting for lightning to strike. With an enhanced intellect he's only beginning to understand, he starts building an empire from nothing. Money. Power. Skills. He'll master combat on a deadly island, steal research from future villains, and engineer his own transformation into something the multiverse has never seen. Seven abilities. Multiple forces. Perfect optimization. When that particle accelerator finally explodes, Barry Allen won't just become a hero. He'll become inevitable. This is the story of a man who refused to let fate write his story. Who looked at the Speed Force and said "not enough." Who turned foreknowledge into an empire and preparation into godhood. The Flash was supposed to be a hero born from tragedy and chance. This Flash? He's something built with purpose. And the DC Universe will never be the same.

BLVCK WOLVES

**BLVCK WOLVES book 3, Arc IV "RIOT GANG" is now live** He is a Sin in a world of magic, and his crew is broken as f*ck. Greed is the acting captain of a bottom-tier Guild called the Black Wolf Knights—or rather, the Black Wolves, and he has no magic. In fact, he rejects it. Literally. With a peculiar name, a mysterious power, and a group of unbridled mavericks with insane abilities, Greed and the Black Wolves are constantly caught in the middle of something scheming in the shadows. Whether it be in their own Kingdom, or beyond it. All the Black Wolves ever want is to live a life of meaninglessness and debauchery. But as the world conflicts, corruptness rises, and war among the nations brew, they always seem to be the last line of defense… Ironically. On top of all this, he is haunted by a past he cannot remember. His only clue, is a girl in the sky… "Find me…" she says. And when he does, his—and everyone else’s—world spirals into chaos. Expect: - Black Clover inspired with JJK abilities, Final Fantasy world, and Vox Machina vibes - NOT isekai, transmigration, evolution, system, or cultivation. Go look for that elsewhere - OP MC from the start with no magic [NOT ANTI-MAGIC], progressively gets even more OP - Harem relationships in the beginning, moderate fanservice, mild sex scenes (hate me), and strong romance subplot by the end of Arc 1 with only one girl - Classic slow-paced story with character development, backstories, perspectives from multiple characters, stats and ability descriptions, intricate plot, worldbuilding, and of course tons of fighting - A long, ongoing story Written and conjured by J.N. Marlow. All rights reserved. © 2025 J.N. Marlow.
