In the Great Orient, lies the continent called Rodenius.... more>>

One day, an unidentified flying object arrived at Qua-Toyne Principality’s airspace. The unidentified flying object defied the Principality’s common sense. But that unidentified flying object was just a harbinger of something even more shocking.

Far to the eastern sea, a group of islands suddenly appeared. The country of the islands called itself: Japan. According to them, their nation had been transported to another world.

Now finding themselves separated from their old world and must survive in the new one, how will Japan interact with the native countries of this world? Will they greet her as a friend or as an enemy?

This is a story of the country called Japan as it was engulfed in the chaotic storm of the world.

Basically, the Japanese version of Island in the Sea of Time.

For clarity: The summoned area of Japan are the four disputed Kuril Islands, Japan Home Islands, and Ryuku Islands <<less

One day, Japan was transferred to another world.... more>>

Because of its poor food production and previous reliance on imports from other countries, Japan faced a food shortage crisis. To slow the effects of starvation from its populace, the Japanese government declared a state of emergency. The Japan Air Self-Defense Force explored the surrounding area and found a land mass about 1000 kilometers to the southwest―the continent of Rodenius.

Japan was able to resolve its food shortage after entering into diplomatic relations with the Principality of Kua Toine and the Kingdom of Quira. However, at that time, another country on the continent, the hegemonic Kingdom of Rowlia, declared war on Kua Toine and Quira.

In light of this new crisis, how will Japan respond? A survival story on a national scale! <<less

S Vol. 1... more>>

Shiba is a detective in the fifth anti-organized crime division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police, a.k.a. “Anti-Gang 5” specializing in handgun seizures. Shiba’s secret weapon is “S” (“spy”), an informant who plays a key role in Shiba’s information gathering. Shiba is training an informant who has been officially accepted into Shinjuku’s Matsukura Group within the Budoha crime syndicate. One day, Shiba awakes to an anonymous phone call. “Watch out for your S.” A tale of two men whose lust, pride and loneliness collide!

S Vol. 2: A Love Bite

Detective Masaki Shiiba's informant or "S," Keigo Munechika, has proven himself to be an excellent source of information. But the payment of s*x for every lead given is taking its toll on Shiiba. But with his new assignment as back-up to a fellow undercover detective, Shiiba learns that there are far worse things than having s*x with your male S--falling helplessly in love with him, for example. S volume 2 continues the drama and passion between a detective and his spy set in the highly-charged underground world of Tokyo.

S Vol. 3: Split

For almost a year now, Shiiba has been using Keigo Munechika as his “S,” his spy, to get information on the gun dealings of the Yakuza world. Shiiba uses his body in exchange for Munechika's sensitive information… and only his body as far as Shiiba is concerned. Shiiba vows their relationship will not go beyond that. But when a rowdy young man with a penchant for piercing and an enigmatic Yakuza leader cross paths with the young detective, sins of the past are unearthed once more-sins that just might shatter the fragile bond between the detective and his “S.”

S Vol. 4: Afterglow

At the end of S volume 3, detective Masaki Shiiba was last seen running away from the hospital room of his injured S, Keigo Munechika. Now, Shiiba has turned in his resignation, bought a gun of his own, and is bent on only one mission--to kill Takanari Godou. He vows to get the truth from Godou, even if he has to throw away his morals and life to do it. But can he do it? Can he shoot another person and commit cold-blooded mu*der for revenge? <<less

In the era of popular esports, a globally popular game called "Destiny" was born.... more>>

This is a close-quarters holographic reality game with a focus on cold weapons such as swords, spears, guns, bows, and other melee weapons.

The charm of close combat, the interplay of flashing blades and shadows, the brutal battle where only one survives out of a hundred, captivate players and make the major world esports tournaments thrive.

Chen Xingran, a weapon master from an ancient martial arts family, wakes up from slumber and finds himself in a strange world, becoming an ordinary student at the Capital Esports Academy, endlessly worrying about how to reach Silver rank.

As he looks at the familiar Tang Sword, broadsword, silver spear, dagger, long whip, and more in the game... Chen Xingran falls into contemplation.

"I'm familiar with this."

Thus, in "Destiny," a formidable specialist in weapons emerges.

His swordsmanship is sharp and elusive, his heavy sword has no edge, his gun moves like a dragon, and his dagger is as agile as a serpent... No matter how challenging the weapon is, it becomes a magnificent and dangerous performance in his hands.

"A Tang Sword is not used like this."

"Protecting teammates? Not necessary."

"Isn't it enough to eliminate all the enemies?"

...

In the world of "Destiny," a legend begins to spread about a fearsome demon king.

It is said that every professional player who faces him in combat meets a tragic end...

However, the good news is that this demon king seems incapable of using ranged weapons?

His archery skills are astonishing. Even with a rapid-firing crossbow, he can't hit a single shot, earning him the title of the "Master of Human Outline Drawing."

Yang Yunchen, the former champion of the FPS World Championship and hailed as the number one marksman, says this while watching the young man who effortlessly takes on three opponents with a Tang Sword.

"Why need ranged weapons when I'm here?"

The blushing young man, finished with the fight and sharpening his sword, chases after him and slashes three blocks.

PS:

1. This is a fictional holographic close-quarters battle royale game with many imaginative elements. You don't need to have played the game to enjoy the story.

2. Game skills and settings are inspired by games like "Eternal Punishment," "Apex Legends," "Overwatch," and others.

3. The weapon master is invincible in close combat but terrible at using guns, while the archer never misses a shot. They pretend to be weak and rely on their spouse, the cunning world champion, to save them.

4. This story doesn't follow the typical trope of the protagonist being overwhelmingly strong. There may be initial setbacks, but later on, the characters reach their full potential and dominate the game, creating various highlights. Please avoid making assumptions about the author and enjoy the story and comments harmoniously. Thank you.

TN:

Title: The phrase "磨刀不误砍菜弓[电竞]" in Chinese is an idiomatic expression commonly used in the context of eSports. It translates to "Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the cutting of vegetables with the bow [eSports]."

This phrase is often used to emphasize the importance of preparation and practice in esports. It means that even though it is essential to hone your skills and improve your strategies, it should not hinder you from taking immediate action and engaging in competitive gaming. Just like sharpening a knife is necessary for efficient cutting, training and preparation are crucial in esports, but they should not become an excuse for procrastination or hesitation. It highlights the balance between preparation and execution in the world of competitive gaming. <<less

Ten years ago, a disaster struck, causing species to mutate, plunging the world into chaos. Two teenagers depended on each other for survival — and, against the odds, fell in love. In order to save Ye Lanzhou, Chu Chenli sustained life threatening injuries and fell into a coma for 10 years. But when he awoke, it was to a new world. One that, along with his former lover, had become unfamiliar. ... more>>

During the missing years, Ye Lanzhou became a revered leader, surrounded by others, leaving no room for Chu Chenli and no time to provide him with comfort or companionship. Chu Chenli didn’t adapt well to this new world, but he didn’t mind. All he wanted to do was to stay with his lover.

Until the hospital was attacked by mutant creatures, and the recently awakened Chu Chenli was too weak to fight back. In an attempt to save others, he became a hostage. Ye Lanzhou rescued him, but couldn’t help blurting out:

“Can you not be a burden?”

Chu Chenli remained silent for a long time.

“Okay.”

A mere few days after awakening, he disappeared from Ye Lanzhou’s world.

He never had the chance to tell Yelan Zhou how his resolve to see him again had allowed him to escape after ten years, surviving countless near-death experiences in that cruel, infinite world to return to reality.

Along with him, there was a companion that he experienced life and death with.

In the dark night, Chu Chenli dragged his injured body off the high floor of the hospital, leaping off and crashing into the embrace of that long-time companion of his.

Mu Yanshen caught him readily, whispering into his ear with a light laugh, “Li-ge, I’ve come to marry you.”

Chu Chenli closed his eyes and ruffled his hair, saying, “Don’t joke around.”

Mu Yanshen just smiled. “Just kidding.”

It was much later when Chu Chenli realized that he wasn’t joking—

Mu Yanshen was capable of deceiving the whole world, but wouldn’t lie to him.

-

When Ye Lanzhou met Chu Chenli again, he was in the middle of a mission, surrounded by monsters, having accidentally fallen into a trap.

Just as he thought he was done for, Chu Chenli descended from the sky.

After narrowly escaping from death, memories of their past intimacy flooded back to Ye Lanzhou.

However, this time, Chu Chenli didn't sacrifice himself to protect him as he had in the past. Instead, he stood next to his companion, regarding him as he would a stranger.

Ye Lanzhou looked up and met a cold gaze.

Mu Yanshen leaned on Chu Chenli with an air of practiced intimacy, gaze towards Ye Lanzhou as sharp as a knife, as if silently declaring:

“He’s mine.” <<less

I pour my burning rage into them.

Over and over again, until they conceive.

From morning till night. Until the women’s souls withered.

But my soul has not perished yet.

I will break free from this prison soon. And when I do, it will be your last.
