Since birth Kata-Kedo, or also know as Kedo, has spend the most of his life inside the walls of his village, jointly with his dream to become a person who could stand against the cold in a snow-covered world, also known as a Ryori, and finally managing to step outside the cage to witness the world with his eyes. After befriending a Snow Ghost, the death that lurked deep inside the land, his life was already destined for good but also for worse, after a life-changing moment occurred in a second of carelessness that saved him and his future. Special thanks to @lilliandoodles for the great book cover. These are Pilot chapters to gather critique for a better experience and for myself to improve as a beginner. I'll release every friday a chapter for a Month. Thanks for reading my Novel!

Ryo Kenzaki was good at being invisible. Just another high schooler, keeping his head down and waiting for each day to end. Then a star fell from the sky. When Ryo pulls a dying woman from the crater it leaves behind, he learns the world he knows is already breaking. Beyond it lies the Hunting Realm—a place where monsters are born from fallen Hunters, and something is beginning to push through. Hunted by a creature he cannot understand, Ryo is dragged to a sanctuary between worlds and forced into a choice that was never really his: take up a Kizugami, a living blade forged from wounds, or die before dawn. But the blade doesn’t obey. It judges. As the weapon begins to search his soul, Ryo is pulled into a war he never asked to join—one shadowed by an impossible Eye in the sky, a relentless Kaimon on his trail, and an ending that may already have been decided. Ryo never wanted to be a Hunter. But if becoming one is the only way to protect what remains, he’ll have to answer a far more dangerous question: When the world strips everything from him, can he still stand as himself once more?

Welcome to the Aetherios System, where the quests are mandatory and failure results in deletion! Alex Pierce thought the worst part of military life was eating stale MREs and getting screamed at by people who loved pushups more than oxygen. He was wrong. Caught in a nuclear blast and dumped into a world of magic, Alex and eleven other soldiers find themselves in a reality where stats rule, The System gives no mercy, and Alex discovers bigger problems than simple rations and the childhood trauma of living in his twin brother’s shadow. Problems like: - Forest badgers with bodybuilding addictions and very personal grudges. - A kobold village too dumb for diplomacy. - One cantankerous apothecary witch. - Smug elves. - And an undead dungeon that didn’t get the memo about staying dead. His fellow Isekai’d soldiers are a disaster, his power build is ruined thanks to one little magical oopsie, and his closest “ally” might be an evil talking river pebble. (It swears it isn’t evil. He’s not convinced.) The System doesn’t care if Alex is confused, terrified, or quietly crumbling under self-doubt. It only cares if he proves himself worthy to exist. Prove yourself or be erased. No pressure.

What if all the colors went missing except one. Would the world still seem so magical? In Mud Mire that's their reality. There are no pretty skies, wholesome dandelions or bloody cherries. There's only mire, no rainbows, no butterflies, just mire. It may come in different shades like how pennies age with time, but that doesn’t change the fact it all leads to one pigment, tinge, or even tint of mud.

Ten thousand years ago, the Ascended Masters abandoned this realm, leaving behind a saturated, chaotic wasteland. Now, the remnants—towering, violent giants bloated on stagnant Qi—rule the ruins of the golden age. They don't cultivate. They just exist, trapped in an endless, brutal loop of survival and stagnation. Julian didn't reincarnate with a magical system, a heavenly physique, or a mysterious master. He fell from the void as a hundred-and-twenty-pound mortal with a degree in Ethnobotany, a pocket of stainless steel acupuncture needles, and a terrifying realization: he is the weakest thing in a world of predators. To the giants, he is just a rabbit. A piece of soft meat. To survive, Julian must prove he is a useful tool, but not too useful. He can't fight them, and the tribe only wants to use him, but Julian didn’t dedicate his life to studying the lost arts of cultivation for nothing. Using forgotten mortal medicine to bypass overloaded meridians, he begins to systematically hack the anatomy of the world's monsters to forge his own foundation. But the giants are a dead end. Clinical, selfish, and obsessed with their own survival, they will never see Julian as anything more than an expendable asset. When forced to choose between the familiar cruelty of humanoid masters and the terrifying, toxic unknown of the deep wild, Julian walks into the dark. He chooses the monsters. Stepping into the domain of a dying, Sovereign-tier horror, Julian leaves humanity behind. He won't just hack his way to a foundation; he will engineer his own faction from the ground up. Julian is going to build the Unbound Sovereign Sect, and he won't use a single human to do it. <Author’s Note / Disclaimer:> The medical, anatomical, and acupuncture theories discussed in this novel are based on real-world traditional practices and botanical science. However, they are heavily dramatized for the sake of survival fantasy. Do not attempt to use two-inch surgical steel needles to vent your friend's stagnant Qi, treat snake bites with random ferns, or perform deep-tissue Shenshu point demolition on yourself. It will not give you the physical mass of a giant; it will just put you in the hospital. Read the fiction, leave the needles to the professionals.

In the slums beneath Veston, Kael fled before his mother's body grew cold. No sun. No flowers. No hope. No dreams. Winter and gang lords buried them all. "Pray to the gods and endure for a better tomorrow," his mom said. Why would he pray to the same gods who denied him peace? Who thrust him into this nightmare? No, he'd carve a way to Veston with his own hands, and it started by breaking his promise to his mother for survival. But the job for gang lord Garrick Vane went wrong. He was left for dead with nothing but a ledger salvaged from a submerged temple. But he refused death. "I persist." Two words that awakened a forbidden power, an unlicensed truth anchored to belief and paid for in the warmth of his most precious memories. Now a heretic hunted by priests who burn the unfaithful, Kael discovered the ledger tracked everything: his stress, his anchor, the price he had already paid. Every choice stresses his truth. And if his anchor breaks, he wouldn't just die: he'd become something worse. What to expect: - Analytical main character who thinks his way through problems. - A deep, original system to decipher along with Kael. - A lore-rich worldbuilding with its own religions and epochs to discover. - Truths that aren't free entries on a stat sheet. - No harem Length: 1,600 – 2,000 words per chapter. Schedule: 1 chapter daily.

On an uncharted island in the middle of the Pacific, Dr. Ivory Gale arrives for a routine inspection of a secret United States government cloning facility. His mission is to verify progress on a project to resurrect the woolly mammoth. Simple job. In and out. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. Literally everything. Dr. Kale, head scientist at the cloning facility and certified lunatic, has been keeping secrets from the United States government. Not the kind of secrets they can all giggle about later. These are the kind of secrets that awaken a long-extinct and highly murderous monstrous spider species.

Because once the sun goes down, the giant spiders come out to hunt. All of them. Welcome to Arachnoextinction.
