Floodborn

Niku20
After the Great Thaw drowned the old world, humanity survived on floating cities called Hulls, scraping out a life on an ocean filled with monsters, pirates, and secrets the Hydrarchy would kill to keep buried. Gin Farcast has always been useful. On Hull-9, he is the dependable one—the man who fixes what others break, carries what others avoid, and gives more than he ever gets back. Everyone leans on him. Everyone takes from him. Even his girlfriend treats his loyalty like something owed. Then a rescue dive into a forbidden trench changes everything. What comes back with him is a rare and dangerous Floodborn strain rooted deep in his marrow, turning his blood and bones into living forges. For the first time in his life, Gin is forced to confront the truth: if he stays where he is, he will be used until there is nothing left of him. So he leaves. Guided by whispers of a hidden island recorded in the Currentscrolls, he begins a journey through wreck fields, floating cities, sea-beast hunts, pirate clashes, and ancient lies buried beneath the tide. To survive, Gin must grow stronger, build a crew of his own, and learn what kind of man he wants to become when no one is left to decide for him.

My Soul Created A System: The Defective Noble

Born into one of the most prestigious noble families of the Eldros Empire, Kael Ashborne should have been a prodigy. Instead, he was branded a defect. Physically weak, plagued by a mysterious illness, and unable to wield power like his gifted siblings, Kael grows up neglected—cast aside by his family, ignored by his teachers, and bullied within the academy. In a world where strength defines worth, weakness is unforgivable. Yet what no one knows is that Kael’s body is not failing him by chance. It is failing because his soul is too strong. On the brink of death at fifteen, Kael’s sealed memories awaken—alongside a damaged system created by his own soul in a previous life. Not a gift from the gods. Not a blessing of fate. But a desperate mechanism born solely to keep him alive. With a body that threatens to collapse under his growing soul and a system that enforces cruel limits, Kael must walk a path slower and more dangerous than any other. Each step forward risks destruction. Each mistake could be fatal. Rejected by blood. Surrounded by enemies. Supported by only a single loyal maid. This is not the rise of a chosen hero. This is the survival of a noble deemed unworthy to exist—and the terrifying truth of what happens when a world mistakes restraint for weakness.
