cthulhu

Thousands of years ago, a cataclysmic explosion erupted from Earth's core, flooding the world with mana. This primal energy marks its chosen with the Weaver's brand. If it selects you, prove your worth in the Realm of Shattered Dreams—the fractured border between reality and the void. Noel hates this cursed magic world. It stole his family, turned his parents indifferent, branded him a failure, and crushed his dream of scholarly pursuit. Why unravel the universe's mysteries when everyone dismisses them as "mana"? They wield its power without questioning its origins. He craves a quiet life, free from glowing runes and blood rituals. But one storm-lashed night, the mark claws into his flesh, hurling him into the Realm of Shattered Dreams—a nightmare hellscape where buried fears congeal into twisted dream-spawns. These abominations hunt with insatiable malice, whispering his deepest shames. No spells. No mentors. No mercy. Just Noel, his wits, and the will to survive. He must scavenge shards of forgotten dreams, solve sanity-shattering riddles, and butcher horrors amid psychological terror and body horror—all while the mark devours his resolve. One misstep, and he becomes the monster. What to Expect: • Brutal litrpg survival with dream-forged progression. • Polished, complex power system with clear strength tiers. • Reluctant anti-hero forging power from despair. • High cosmology; slow-burn start. Strong female leads (and more than one). Will Noel shatter the realm... or himself?

In a world governed by ranks, rules, and the illusion of order, one existence refuses to be defined. Scarlet V. Crimson is an E-rank adventurer. At least… that’s what the system says. A demon of unknown origin, wielding a blade that should not exist, Scarlet wanders across dimensions in search of “anomalies”—distortions in reality that threaten the balance of worlds. Yet no matter where he goes, one truth follows him like a shadow: Nothing is ever a challenge. But boredom is a dangerous thing. Because when a being like Scarlet begins to lose interest in the world… the world begins to change in response. Enemies stop behaving like enemies. Reality fractures in subtle, unnatural ways. And something unseen begins to observe him—not as a hunter, but as a phenomenon. A variable. A mistake. Or worse… a key. As the boundaries between dimensions weaken, Scarlet finds himself drawn into a deeper mystery—one that questions the very system that ranks him, the true nature of his sword, and the possibility that he is not merely traveling between worlds… …but breaking them. And when something finally answers his desire for a real fight— It doesn’t come as an enemy. It comes as him.

"A shepherd of all lambs may guide but one, yet often serves better than one who guides none." In the Fifth District of Welfanshelm, Mizmaze tends a flock of sheep with only bread and milk to sustain him, content in his quiet, unasked-for life. But on the last day of the year, the Day of the Eclipse, his master bestows a Sigil and a cryptic blessing: 「For seven seasons, you have tended my herd of sheep without asking for anything in return. So shall there be a sevenfold reap for you alone as a token of my gratitude. I bestow upon you my blessing, but beware, for there is a flaw.」 Suddenly thrust into a world of hidden magic and mysterious sects, Mizmaze becomes a Child of the Sect of the Orphans, marked by abilities he never sought. Buried in his soul lies a past he must never remember. Power has chosen him. But so has a darker fate. He is the bridegroom of damnation — and his wedding day draws near. ━━━━━༺༻━━━━━━ Main Genre: High Fantasy Additional Tags: TowerClimbing, Inheritance, Orphanhood, Selfhood, Godhood, Singularity, DeathGames, Trials, SpecialAbilities, Gore, Dark, Mythology, Epic, Symbiosis, Heirhood Invented/Hidden Tags: ??, ??

Nothing to see here :) Don't waste ur time.....

In the far reaches of a techno-magical multiverse, where dead stars scream and ancient spells run on quantum circuits, a boy named Jidd wakes up in a decaying space colony with no memory… and the power to make reality bleed. Unbeknownst to him, Jidd is no ordinary human. He is a fragment of an ancient eldritch god - a being once known only as 'It Who Devours'. Long ago, the gods united to destroy and shatter this abomination, scattering its essence across time, space, and dreams. But Jidd doesn’t know any of this. All he knows is that he’s being hunted by cults, corporations, interdimensional bounty hunters, and terrifying entities that call him “brother.” His only ally? A talking octopus with a caffeine addiction and more secrets than tentacles. As Jidd navigates bizarre worlds, collapsing timelines, and memories that are not his, he begins to awaken - and each time he does, the universe trembles. Can a boy with the heart of a monster choose to be human? Or will the madness inside him crack the cosmos open once more? A cosmic odyssey of forgotten gods, quantum apocalypses, and a caffeine-addicted octopus.

Prologue This work is a Thai novel. It has been translated into English with the aid of an artificial intelligence. The voice you hear is only a shadow of the original, but shadows may reveal what light cannot. Introduction This story is a meditation on ruin and philosophy. The further it goes, the less it belongs to the ground of men. Its form is fractured, its truths concealed. The first four chapters lie elsewhere, beyond this place. They are only a threshold. What begins here is the descent itself. A drama of grief and cruelty, of blood and silence. The tale grows darker as it unfolds, and the warning is plain: within these pages are things meant to wound. Systems hidden in the world, mysteries that coil and divide, paradoxes that gnaw against every philosophy. Read at your own peril. Yet know this—if you go on, you will not forget. Synopsis He was a man once. Ordinary, with a family. He held a small happiness, the kind that the world itself cannot abide. For the world hated him. The world sought his ruin. So it came to pass that he lost all things. No grief was deeper, no despair more complete. He became a husk in the shape of a man, staggering through the wreckage. Nothing left to guard. Nothing to keep. He tore at himself, he tore at others. He hunted vengeance like a starving dog hunts blood. He sank into wickedness because there was nowhere else to go. And in the end there was only the carcass of a beast, falling down into blackness. He found himself in another country, a place without mercy. A land of nightmare so absolute it mocked the very idea of waking. There he was changed. No one could name what he had become. Not man. Not beast. Something that stands above both. None could curse him. None could deny him. Demons shrieked when he passed. Gods trembled. The races of that world went into hiding. Even the void itself could not bind him. He would be more than flesh, more than soul. He would be a thing that rose beyond heaven and annihilation alike. He would stand beyond Nirvana, where language breaks and all meaning rots. And there, in that place, he would endure alone. Thank you for choosing to read it.

Physics is dying. The world is reduced to a madman’s draft. The common sense we’ve always known is dissolving, moment by moment. Rampant cancers, a whale rotting on a peak, eyes of serpents gleaming on asphalt roads... When reality itself disintegrates, can our minds hold onto a thread that leads us through?

It refers to tabletop role-playing games. Their hallmark is the immersive experience of playing your own character, and within the rules, you can choose from a variety of open-ended storylines and endings based on your actions. Cthulhu RPGs are a broad subcategory of TRPGs. Players play the role of ordinary explorers, yet they must explore mysterious events, encounter unknown mythical creatures, and face untold horrors. The only true lesson here is that the less you know, the longer you live. Liu Xing, simply out of curiosity, wanted to run a Cthulhu RPG online, but ended up stumbling upon a real-life Cthulhu RPG.

Lorn Cairn didn't find peace after death. He found Erebos: a shell world consumed by ash, spiritual decay, and the cosmic monstrosities known as the Void-Born. Reborn into a corpse's body and branded Tier Zero, he is an anomaly gifted only with the tools to survive inevitable consumption. He wields an infinite Eternal Core and the power of Omni-Mimicry to steal strength from the very horrors hunting him. Awakening in a grave, weak and hunted by what makes the ground shake, Lorn's only goal is the next breath. Survival is a curse. Ascension is mandatory. In the realm of perpetual ash, the Drifter will rise, or he will fuel the Void.

Chen Haoran was a master con artist. For fifteen years he sold false hope, running spiritual scams that made him millions—without ever believing a word of it. His game ended with a sniper’s bullet. But death wasn’t the end. He wakes in the medieval world of Aethermoor, reborn as sixteen-year-old Aldric Ashmore. Here, reality bends under the influence of Outer Gods, whose power flows through supernatural “Chains” that twist anyone who uses them. Most people risk corruption when they seek that power. Chen Haoran doesn’t. His talent for manipulation makes him uniquely dangerous. Now, with his father dead under mysterious circumstances, debts mounting, and multiple supernatural factions circling like vultures, Aldric must navigate an unfamiliar world. Armed with psychological expertise, and absolutely zero moral constraints, Chen Haoran begins building the most dangerous cult in history—one guided by someone who understands exactly how to make people choose their own salvation while following a carefully orchestrated path toward transcendence. The faithful need a shepherd. The cosmos needs conscious evolution. And Chen Haoran needs power. Some might call it blasphemy. He calls it business. Welcome to the age of The Faithless Prophet.

A bullied teen gains the power to stop time and is then forcibly merged with a dead cosmic god to become an anti-hero who will tear down a corrupt empire

Born into the Nine Profound Thunder Sect, Taiyang Leilong was acknowledged by ancestral law as a trueblood of thunder. Unlike his peers, he did not cultivate out of hunger for supremacy, nor did he chase glory or recognition. He observed, learned, and advanced with quiet restraint, appreciating beauty where it appeared and treating power as something to be understood rather than worshipped. Beneath the sect’s orderly surface, however, ancient tensions and unspoken ambitions stirred, and Leilong’s existence gradually became a variable others could not ignore. When a sudden calamity shattered the heavens, Leilong was cast into an unfamiliar world. His body remained whole, his cultivation intact, yet everything he once knew was severed. Forced to walk a new land governed by different laws, he adapted in silence, observing and enduring. While he moved as a detached wanderer, a single thought remained unshaken: the calamity had intent behind it, and one day, when the path allowed, thunder would return to settle its account.

[ "Tell me, do you believe in ghosts?" ] That one question. That one phrase. It was both the beginning and the end for many, yet for Kenji Hakurou, it signalled a shift. The world he lived in mirrored our own — skyscrapers reaching the clouds, a world connected by the web, where progress and science have left the world of myth and belief behind. But within this shining beacon of a new age lie shadows that refuse to die of creatures that lurk in the night, unseen and hidden. Anomalies, horrors, and mythical beasts only ever seen in fiction — or beyond the scope of imagination. Mysteries remain, stories of ghosts and urban legends permeate through hushed voices. Follow this loveless batter as he fights his way through this deep, dark, and, aided by a mysterious benefactor, before long, under the control of the clandestine Choir — an organization hellbent on keeping the world secure and the supernatural hidden. Through any means necessary. ——————————————————— Current Case: 0 | Prologue Cross-posted on Royal Road Release Schedule: 1 Chapter at 7:00 AM PST | Daily
