future

What if the stars were your only way out? Where stars are nameless, they are the only option to those who open their eyes past the veil of indifference. Some looked up, and reached too far. The realms grow decaying from utter ignorance. Now, its time to bring back the time where the realms were once beautiful, to truly give light on 'Paradise'. The world believes them to be a nobody yet beneath their quiet gaze lies a mystery so vast, it terrifies what's beyond the true veil of stars. What is one to believe when the truth is concealed like a bruise? In a world fractured unforgivingly into realms; each ruled by branches that shape reality. He’s not supposed to exist. But he does. And he’s not the only one watching . . .

[BL] Imagine being the main character of a toxic BL novel who somehow transmigrated to the real world— and then you found out that your readers ‘ship’ you with your abuser. Awful, right? Thankfully, that didn’t happen to Wonyoung. But that could happen to An Baekya— the main character of a hit omegaverse novel, who also happens to be his son-in-law.

Leo had a problem. Don't be like Leo! It wasn't that he was poor. It wasn't that he was unlucky. It was that he had been cursed, or blessed by the Accidental Tycoon System. The rules were deceptively simple. Any money he lost on an investment would be returned to him, doubled. His life's new mission was crystal clear. He had to go bankrupt. In a high-tech world of S-Rank Heroes, magic, and newly-contacted alien civilizations, this should have been the easiest thing to achieve in the galaxy. He just had to become the biggest, most spectacular loser the universe had ever seen. So, he tried. Oh, how he tried... He threw billions at publishing a dungeon guide written by a 10-year-old. The maps were in crayon, and it listed the final boss as a Big Grumpy Badger. [Breaking: New S-Rank dungeon called 'The Whispering Labyrinth' appears! All high-tech mapping drones fail. A lost F-Rank porter used the crayon guide... and it's 100% accurate. The final boss is a 50-foot divine badger. The Galactic Union has declared the guide a 'holy text' for exploration!] He bought the galaxy's most useless moon, planning to build a 'Museum of Paint'. [Alert: Ancient magical ley-lines discovered under the moon's surface! It's the only place in the universe that can safely grow the 'Star-Lotus,' the key ingredient for immortality!] To the Intergalactic Hero's Guild, the Magic Academies, and the Alien Federations, Leo was the god of investment whose every move was like 5D chess that ordinary people couldn't understand. Heroes would soar with his sponsorship. Alien emperors offered him their daughters' hands in marriage for a single 'tip'. But Leo just stared at his bank account, which now displayed his wealth that he couldn't use on himself, with tears streaming down his face. "Please," he cried, "I'm trying to fail! Why won't you just let me be poor?!"

Time Magazine once gave this review of a man: "Mr. Yang is a great inventor. The products he created changed how hundreds of millions live, work, and travel." "At the same time, his inventions created millions of jobs and made outstanding contributions to regional economies." ... Never would he have imagined—Yang Wendong, already a successful entrepreneur, would accidentally travel back to the 1950s. Given a second chance, he would once again rise from nothing, climb to the peak of this era, and build a century-spanning Chinese family empire.

[A mortal warmaster story about the Imperial Navy, with many female protagonists and a lot of hammering! ] Horatio never expected that he, a scum of the lower nest who was sentenced to death at the beginning, would become the first expedition warmaster from the Imperial Navy. He was awarded the command scepter of the Imperial Armed Forces by the Imperial Regent Guilliman with a smile. The Lion King Lion patted his shoulder and said, "Leave the battle line to you, I'm going to kill people." The Second Imperial Emperor *Bang! *Saint Lesto dreamed of taking care of his unlucky yellow-armored child. He was regarded as the favorite bedtime story by the God Emperor and the Four Gods. Well, it's over. Adjutant, sound the battle alarm! The Hell Vanguard immediately launched an orbital airborne strike! The Lord Guard launched a boarding attack on the rebel flagship! Today, only Abaddon and I can leave this void alive! All this started on the day at the end of the 41st millennium of the Dark Boundless...

In the far reaches of space, answers are currency—and some truths were buried for a reason. After unearthing fragments of ancient cosmic intelligence—the Hollow Stars—humanity was invited to join the Silver Council, a ruling force of ancient, enigmatic power presiding over a fragile interstellar order of the universe's intelligence species. Their gifts: protection, prosperity, and a place among the stars. Their price: silence, secrecy, and servitude. To maintain this order, the Council tasked its protectors. Enforcers maintain planetary peace. Blades chase lawbreakers across galactic borders and their starlanes. But few ever return the same. Sergeant Pierce Gage, a “Blank” whose mind lacks the spark of humanity, leads the Cloudjumpers—an elite Sword Company unit with a reputation for success and scars to match. His team includes a sharp-tongued Martian engineer, a loyalty-driven AI pilot haunted by human emotion, and soldiers forged in warzones no one talks about anymore. As their missions spiral deeper into the undercurrents of empire, Pierce begins to suspect the Council’s protection may be little more than a gilded cage—and the Hollow Stars might not be dead history, but something still watching. War is coming. Not between species or nations, but between those who know the truth... And those still willing to chase the lie.

An unexpected time jump tears open a fifteen-year-old rift in a family; amidst hardship and ruin, love buried by time is rediscovered. Meng Minxin falls into darkness with the click of a family photo shutter. When she opens her eyes again, fifteen years have passed. The child who once nestled around her knees has become a cold and distant teenager. Her beloved husband, Lin Zhengyin, has graying temples, his eyes reflecting the waiting and trauma of over five thousand days and nights. Her fifteen-year disappearance was defined as "abandonment," but her return becomes the deepest earthquake beneath the family's calm surface. Her husband, with fifteen years of stubborn waiting and a silent dressing table, proves that love has never left. Her son, Lin Guang, forges armor of anger to protect the abandoned six-year-old child within him. Her daughter, Lin Xin, freezes her trauma into gray-blue doors and vortexes on a canvas, building her own fortress in silence. Meng Minxin, holding an outdated map, enters this world recoded with scars. From his tearful "I knew it was you" during their chance encounter in the used bookstore, to his son's chilling question; from the darkness in his daughter's painting reflecting her own departure, to the family's silent support during her vulnerable illness; from an unexpectedly discovered diary overturning the conclusion of "abandonment," to a painting titled "Return" illuminating the path to reconciliation… they are forced to confront together the abyss of fifteen years that lie between them. This is not a simple reconciliation. It is a difficult reconstruction on the ruins of time, a long journey about forgiveness, understanding, and how to relearn to be a family in an imperfect reality. When the mystery of time travel resurfaces, when the temptation to "go back to the past" is presented, they must answer: to cling to correcting the perfect past, or to bravely embrace this scarred yet precious present? "Fifteen Years of Longing" tells a family allegory that transcends time and space. It is about the weight of waiting, the form of trauma, the difficulty of forgiveness, and even more about how a family, after being almost shattered by fate, rebuilds a beacon called "Return" brick by brick in "this moment" with the remaining love and bonds.

Li Tang was reborn on the eve of the new millennium. He knew the trajectory of the mining market over the next twenty years, had the coordinates of every newly discovered supermine, and understood the intricate details of century-defining mergers between mining giants. While experts lamented that all the rich mines were in the hands of major players and that the giants were troubled by aging and depleting resources, turning from exploration to ruthless corporate takeovers... A group from the East kept working miracles—discovering deeply buried, shockingly rich mineral deposits again and again. From scorching deserts, frozen Arctic lands, and uninhabited primeval forests, they extracted tons of ore. Fully loaded cargo ships, the industrial lifeline, thundered across the seas toward the East. He had advanced exploration technology, wielded capital like a club, and maneuvered deftly through complex global politics—completely disrupting the mining industry's global landscape. When he speaks, the world listens. One foreign mining analyst exclaimed: “He is already the sole mining oligarch on Earth!” Thank you for the support, friends.

Ilyra Noem was never meant to live in the shadows of power, but for years she kept an empire together without saying a word. As the wife of billionaire Ruvan Calderic, she worked without a title, power, or recognition, stopping disasters that no one could have seen coming. It was difficult to see how smart she was. No one has written down her sacrifices. Her access ended with her marriage. The Calderic Group starts to break apart in small but dangerous ways when Ilyra disappears. Contracts don't work. There are holes in oversight. People in charge pay attention. The man who once thought that power could replace loyalty now knows that he can't get back what he lost by using force. Ilyra doesn't come back to beg. She comes back as an independent expert who is untouchable, controlled, and ready. Questions shift from business to personal responsibilities, revealing their past and serving as evidence. Being quiet becomes a problem. Distance becomes unfeasible. Every attempt to conceal the truth demonstrated the deep connection between their lives. This story isn't about forgiving someone right away. It's the story of a woman who won't be forgotten just because she was loved and then left. It's also about power being regained and boundaries being enforced. Once people are held accountable, the focus changes from figuring out what went wrong to resolving the problem at its source. But who will have to manage the results?

Arcade Academy trains the heirs of empires, clans, and guilds to become the next generation of heroes. But Michael Willson is different.

And Michael will rewrite the story. ----- Tags: #Progression ,#Fantasy, #LitRPG, #GameLit, #Academy, #System, #Swordsmanship, #Adventure #Action #Magic #Dungeon | #Weak-to-Strong #Rivalry #Hidden Identity #Isekai, #Overpowered
