PROTOCOL: MYTHOS

"We gave the monsters a name. Then, we gave them our souls." In 2040, humanity learned a truth too late to forget. Nuclear fire does not kill the Abyssals. It feeds them. When the Great Rifts opened across the planet, borders ceased to matter. Cities fell. Oceans split. The world was unified not by peace, but by extinction-level fear. Nations dissolved into a single authority born of desperation: the GDF (GLOBAL DEFENSE FORCE) Against beings that could absorb annihilation itself, humanity turned to a forbidden answer. The Gen-1 Oni-Frames. Powered by Demon Cores harvested from dead Abyssals, these machines were not piloted. They were inhabited. Neural synchronization fused human nervous systems with alien biological reactors, creating weapons capable of standing against Calamity-class entities. The price was sanity. Across the world, Gen-1 pilots began to break. Hallucinations. Violence. Suicide. Entire units collapsed from within, their minds eroded by instincts that were never human to begin with. The Oni won battles, but destroyed a generation. Bara was one of them. A Rakshasa. A member of an elite suicide squad deployed where failure meant extinction. He fought on the shores of Bali against a Calamity that could not be killed. He watched his brothers die, consumed in battle or driven mad afterward by the Demon Cores inside them. Bara survived. Not unscarred. Not sane. Just functional enough to remain useful. Now, he is the last known Gen-1 pilot still standing. A relic of a brutal era, buried within the grease, smoke, and discipline of Military Heavy platoons. Medicated. Controlled. Forgotten. Until the Abyss evolves. The sleek, plasma-wielding Gen-3 Phalanx units of the modern age begin to fail. Calamity-class entities adapt faster than fusion reactors can respond. When one such Abyssal cripples the world’s elite forces, the GDF is forced to unseal its oldest nightmare. Bara is being called back. Not in a rusted cage. But in a prototype that should not exist. The Asura Mk.II. A Hybrid Frame that bridges human fusion technology with demonic biology. To survive, Bara must walk a line no one else can. Between discipline and instinct. Between control and surrender. Armed with the Samsara Vajra and the forbidden Six Paths system, he will teach a new generation of soldiers the truth humanity tried to erase. Sometimes, to save humanity, you have to let the monster lead. Protocol Mythos authorized. Welcome to the frontline of the end. ------------------------------------------------- |Themes| • War Trauma & Survivor’s Guilt • Humanity vs Monstrosity • Control vs Instinct • The Cost of Survival • Living After Death • Hope Born from Ruin • Legacy of a Forgotten War • What It Means to Be Human |Genre| Sci-Fi Military Mecha Dark Fantasy Post-Apocalyptic Action Psychological Tragedy Anti-Hero -------------------------------------------------

The Mech Touch

After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer. Helped by his missing father, Ves has obtained the mysterious Mech Designer System that can help him rise in the galaxy and beyond. His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits. This is the golden age of mechs. This is the golden age of humanity. The question is, will it last?

All of my chapters are written and proofread directly by me for many years. The only automated tool that I have used is the basic spellchecker that comes standard with the Google Docs application. I have not changed my approach towards writing chapters for The Mech Touch even as technology has advanced and introduced new tools. I will continue to maintain my current approach for this webnovel until it has come to an end.

The Puppet Maker in the World of Naruto (AU)

A man who is a scientist, researcher, and expert mechanic in robotics dies in a massive explosion that occurs in his laboratory while developing an advanced robot project. However, instead of experiencing death as he thought, the man awakens in another world—a strange place with vast stretches of desert. There, the man is surrounded by people who can jump high, calling themselves ninjas. The confusion he initially felt grows as he realizes that this world is not unfamiliar to him. This is the world of Naruto! However, there is one thing that surprises him. "Isn't this Sunagakure? Why am I not in Konoha? This poorest village... Oh my God, this is serious!" Now, in the midst of a new life filled with danger and uncertainty, the scientist must find a way to survive in Sunagakure, a harsh place full of limitations. With his robotic knowledge, can the man change his fate in this ninja world, or will he fall along with the village? Volume 1: Prologue (Chapters 1 – 40) Volume 2: Puppetry Work and Training (Chapters 41 – 80) Volume 3: Ninja Academy (Chapters 81 – 120) Volume 4: Becoming a Ninja (Chapters 121 – ???) (Author’s Note: The storyline of this novel is intentionally very, very slow-paced. If you decide to read this novel, I kindly ask for your patience, because the flow is deliberately written to be slow yet detailed. However, once the story reaches the Ninja Academy Arc, the pacing will involve quite a number of time skips. Still, I will make sure the transitions are not chaotic, and I will do my best to ensure the story remains enjoyable and coherent. Oh, and one more thing—this is quite a strange version of the Naruto world. You could say it’s an AU, or Alternate Universe, because aside from the original characters from the Naruto anime itself, there will also be a few characters who resemble figures from other anime. That’s all I wanted to say. I sincerely hope you will enjoy this novel!) [Note: 45+ latest chapters have been added!
