The primeval esper who slew the black dragon unleashed a great curse upon humanity.... more>>

All espers, unless they find a guide with a high connection rate, will ultimately die before their time.

Espers desperately try to find a guide with a fate-like connection rate— But in this world, even the matching rate rarely exceeds 7%.

For one reason or another, Ah-jun ends up applying to Huntsville Care Facility— The place guides avoid the most.

“That one’s probably the hardest to manage. Ever heard of psychometry?”

And just like that, he’s assigned the facility’s worst troublemaker (…or so they say).

He has nowhere else to go, but now he’s paranoid—convinced the guy read his past.

[At the end of the world, may waiting manifest as dreams.]

Then come the strange occurrences… like walls that move.

“I thought you wouldn’t like me. Glad that’s not the case.”

Suddenly, Cassian appears.

Or—no. More like… a ghost wearing his face.

It was terrifying. Absolutely terrifying. But wait a second—this isn’t a nightmare, is it?

“See? You like it too, don’t you?”

…Was that a wet dream? <<less

Longtu Pavilion was built during the Northern Song Dynasty and housed various books, paintings, classics, and archives—somewhat similar to today’s libraries. The most famous "curator" of Longtu Pavilion was Bao Zheng, who served as the Longtu Pavilion Scholar and Prefect of Kaifeng during the reign of Emperor Renzong.... more>>

This story is fictional (obviously!) and follows the Shu-Mao family as they solve ancient unsolved cases preserved in the archives of Longtu Pavilion, as well as unresolved mysteries sent in from various prefectures and counties.

A historical detective story featuring Shu-Mao, this novel retains most of the characters from Gui Xing but is entirely separate from the Gui Xing You Long series. There is no connection between the two, so don’t get them mixed up! The plot is completely independent and brand new. <<less

“So now even if I r*pe you, you can’t say a word, right? You said this was your fate.”... more>>

In a post-apocalyptic world, the only remaining refuge is the Center.

Taeeun, the Center’s flawless SS-rank Guide, is sent above ground to investigate abnormal phenomena—only to be ambushed by a mysterious Sentinel named Sihyeon.

After the attack, something unexpected happens.

Taeeun, who had never been able to match with anyone due to his overwhelming abilities, is forcibly bonded to Sihyeon—who begins using him as nothing more than a “guiding tool.”

Meanwhile, Sihyeon, who entered the Center thanks to his dangerously violent power, can’t stand how Taeeun, despite having everything stolen from him, still refuses to submit.

Infuriated by Taeeun’s defiance, Sihyeon is torn between the urge to utterly destroy him—and the desire to make him completely, undeniably his.

But Taeeun, who shudders at the very thought of Sihyeon, only pushes him away.

To make matters worse, Taeeun suddenly undergoes a dual manifestation as a Sentinel himself—and becomes doubly bonded to Junwon, a Guide who has harbored unspoken love for him for years… <<less

One day, C-class guide Roen accidentally guides Calix, the head of the country's top private mercenary group Eclipse . But this man is somehow suspicious. ... more>>

"I'm a C-class and I have my flaws as a guide, so why do you want to take me with you?"

"I told you. I like you. I need you."

Unlike the arrogant gaze of the top predator in the food chain, he spoke in a sweet and seductive voice.

"Come with me."

Let’s go to Eclipse together. And… …

“It’s not enough.”

He bit my lips like a hungry beast and dug into me. Our bodies pressed closer and humid air filled the surroundings. Was this what it felt like to be eaten?

“Ha… This is so damn good. What the hell are you?”

▶A quick taste I guess my hair wasn’t completely dry, so water droplets fell on my knuckles. The faint scent of shampoo lingered at the tip of my nose, making my head dizzy. Even his eyes were wet and moist. Calix looked like a spy using a charm in a spy movie.

“How about sleeping next to me?”

“Yes?”

“You sleep so well without even dreaming when you sleep with me.”

“Don’t be ridiculous.”

Calix’s face hardened when the charm didn’t work.

“That’s the only way.”

He unfastened the cuffs on my wrist and rolled up my sleeves to my forearms. Even in my dark room with only a few candles lit, my eyes were drawn to her pale, shiny skin.

“Wait, Calix. What are you doing?”

“Faint.”

Did he misunderstand the definition of fainting? His gaze did not seem to lie. As if to prove it, he leaned toward me, placing one hand on the bed.

I thought, “No way,” and backed away as far as he could.

Then my head suddenly touched the headboard. Even though there was nowhere else to retreat, he kept coming closer. I thought I knew what he was going to do.

“Wait. Calix, this doesn’t feel right.”

He came close to my lips. He didn’t even pretend to hear me as I twisted my head. It felt like his cold body temperature would touch my lips at any moment. His blue eyes were rippling and loose. <<less

The holographic game “Crimson Earth,” blending cyberpunk with Cthulhu elements, was about to be released.... more>>

Kui Xin’s luck seemed to have taken a turn for the better when she was selected as a closed beta tester for “Crimson Earth.”

However, events spiraled rapidly into the bizarre. She realized that instead of playing a mere holographic game, she had actually been transported to a parallel world that truly exists.

People struggled to survive amidst forests of steel and iron, while authorities raised their glasses in shared revelry under the glow of neon lights.

Consortiums controlled the economic lifelines, while super-intelligent AI monitored every individual’s actions closely.

Extraordinary beings, cyborgs, secret cults, and distortions in humans took center stage in this era…

Upon logging into the game, Kui Xin had an ominous feeling that something significant was about to unfold.

Question: What should you do if you discover your character in the game is a top-priority fugitive from the Federation, currently working undercover within the official Investigation Department?

Answer: The most dangerous place can also be the safest. Act out a scenario where you’re chasing yourself, then seize an opportunity to fake your death and escape.

---------------

Name: Kui Xin

Identity: An undercover agent sent by a rebel organization to infiltrate the Federation's Investigation Department.

Objective: Survive and strive to level up.

After reading the objective, Kui Xin felt it was insufficient.

Being a double-crosser seemed like a dead-end role; merely surviving and focusing on leveling up wasn't thrilling enough for her. She wanted to pull off something grand.

For instance, taking out the boss and usurping their position sounded quite satisfying.

I am Zhao Tangtang, the sixth princess of the Zhao Kingdom. I thought I would always be an unpampered salted fish forever, but when I was six years old, my father emperor suddenly had the ability to read heart voices and I was pampered to the sky.... more>>

For the past six years, the only thing I've been doing besides eating and waiting for death is digging dog holes, because I know that my second imperial brother is the male protagonist in this book, and after he usurps the throne, I will become the chicken in the 'kill the chicken to scare the monkey' scenario.

That's right, I've been transmigrated into this book since I was born. I know all the plots in this book and have memorized all of them in my mind. But, aside from that, all I have is this not-so-smart brain of mine.

I've never thought about competing for favor to increase my sense of presence.. because I know that I can't win. I've never underestimated the IQ of the ancient people, and I don't feel that I will have a chance to win just because I'm a transmigrator. <<less

The son of a servant, Yan Bubu, was destined to serve Young Master Feng Chen for life from the moment he was born.... more>>

Said young master was as cold and piercing as a bullet fired at absolute zero. The thick layer of ice that seemed to encase Feng Chen kept everyone at a distance.

Despite this, Yan Bubu only had eyes for Feng Chen. He offered up his only toy. “Here, Big Brother.”

“Who’s your big brother?” Feng Chen looked down and asked coldly.

Yan Bubu s**ked on his thumb and smiled. “Big Brother is so silly. Of course it’s you!”

Feng Chen didn’t like this sticky little follower, even if Yan Bubu looked at him like he was the sun and called him ‘big brother’ in the sweetest tone.

Yet when the world ended, 12 year old Feng Chen took the young Yan Bubu along as he made his escape.

Earthquakes. Floods. Extreme temperatures. Epidemics. Mutated flora and fauna.

Two children alone guarded an empty city, facing this brand new world and the dangers lurking around every corner together.

Feng Chen never once thought of abandoning Yan Bubu during those years where they struggled to survive.

Yan Bubu was his everything.

These simulations turned into a game where she could act without restraint, and after countless trials, real life became a replica she could navigate as though speedrunning it.

A War Without Casualties.... more>>

The Republic of San Magnolia has long been under attack from the neighbouring Giadian Empire’s army of unmanned drones known as the Legion. After years of painstaking research, the Republic finally developed autonomous drones of their own, turning the one-sided struggle into a war without casualties-or at least, that’s what the government claims.

In truth, there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the fortified walls protecting the eighty-five Republic territories lies the “nonexistent” Eighty-Sixth Sector. The young men and women of this forsaken land are branded the Eighty-Six and, stripped of their humanity, pilot the “unmanned” weapons into battle…

Shin is the leader of a squadron of eighty-sixers. Lena is a “handler” who commands the detachment from the remote rear with the help of special communication technology.

The farewell story of the severe and sad struggle of these two begins! <<less

In such dire conditions, Jaeil, who has little lingering attachment to the world and pushes himself to his limits, one day hears a piece of news. It’s that a new A-rank Backsplash Guide will be coming to the center. However, that guide, Seunghyun, is from District 13, has received no education, and doesn’t even know how to perform Guiding!? <<less

In the year 1245 of the Star Calendar, the S-level mecha athlete [sink] shone brightly, setting numerous records. Despite his immense glory, he announced his retirement after achieving the grand slam, leaving countless fans feeling regretful and saddened.... more>>

During the same year, the KID base’s mecha mechanic had his team doctor qualification revoked for violating league rules. The base’s owner had no choice but to release a recruitment announcement, which instantly sparked a heated debate within the league.

“What? Hiring? How much is the salary?”

“As we all know, KID is very poor. Don’t bother applying.”

“There are so few mechanics, yet you offer this salary. Are you taking us as fools?”

Before long, the KID base actually recruited a mechanic. The mechanic wore a hat that obscured his face and loose long sleeves, revealing faint glimmers of cold light from intricate mechanical hand within his sleeve. He appeared frail and delicate, more like a vase than a mecha mechanic.

“Is his right hand a prosthetic? Mechanical hand? Are you kidding me? Can it be accurate?”

“I doubt he can even lift an outer armor plate.”

Two years later, the Mecha Alliance underwent restructuring, requiring the team doctors of the alliance’s base teams to participate in battles. The KID club submitted its roster, and there was a new ID on the list—[sink] .

The people in the league then realized that KID not only recruited a mechanic but also one with explosive combat power.

During that year, he had just won the first grand slam of the Mecha Alliance, following his heart and pursuing his dreams relentlessly. However, two years later, he suffered from genetic backlash, leaving him disabled in half of his body, leading a life confined to a wheelchair.

In his most difficult years, it was KID’s boss who took him in, giving him a chance, teaching him a new profession, and pulling him out of the abyss. Starting anew, he turned down offers from various bases, resolutely retired before his body deteriorated further, and applied to become a mecha mechanic at the KID base.

Repaying the debt, recovering his health, starting over again—he had experienced the pinnacle, and even if he was full of scars, he was determined to reach the summit once more.

Xie Yang struggled in the post-apocalyptic world for many years until he was too tired to go on. Then he transmigrated into a young adult entertainment circle novel where the protagonists have easy, sweet, and satisfying lives.... more>>

The male protagonist of the novel is not just handsome and smart, he's also reborn. The female protagonist of the novel is not only beautiful and works hard towards her dreams, she also has a cheat in her hands.

There's a lot of male and female supporting roles, each having pretty face, nice figures and someone strong behind them. Get into any one of their bodies, and he could close his eyes and just enjoy life. But he didn't. Instead he transmigrated into a young idol secretly married to the biggest villain of all — the male protagonist's maternal uncle.

His title is husband but it's more like a nurse. Because this novel's biggest villain is a terminally ill patient who is gloomy and sick in the head (actually sick). Their marriage was to counter the bad luck (illness).

Xie Yang: Who cares if you're the male lead, female lead, male supporting, female supporting, villain or protagonist. Get in the way of my comfortable life and you'll die (:

Lin Feilu, or better known by her nickname—Green Tea Princess, was the best of all the scheming b*tches that the world had ever seen.

Simply put, she was the proverbial villainess.... more>>

Ah, but retribution came way too early for this malicious personage and she died on her 27th birthday.

In death, Lin Feilu reflected on her career of 20 years as the Green Tea Princess. She was full of regret and remorse over the life she once led. She vowed, if there was an afterlife, she would atone for her misdeeds and be a good person.

She transmigrated into a five-year-old princess of the Dalin Dynasty. In the name of family, she had a sickly mother disfavoured by the emperor, a mentally challenged and daft older brother.

Her life was constantly in danger, with having little to eat and trying to stay warm.

The living environment was very harsh.

Lin Feilu, who wanted to be a good person: … You forced me! Sorry, I can only activate my unique skill.

After wandering alone for several days, Song Ke encounters a troublesome man. The man has a broken leg, and speaks weakly as if on the verge of death, yet there’s a smile at the corner of his mouth that is strangely beguiling.

“Little girl, I have nothing to offer you in return. How about offering myself to you?”

Suspiciously eyeing him for a couple of seconds, Song Ke slowly summons her spiritual tool.

“Speak up, how do you want to… die?”

One thing leads to another, and her adventurous path… takes a peculiar turn? She ends up gathering a series of strange teammates.

A year after the apocalypse, a bizarre rumor circulates among the major surviving bases:

It’s said that the top-ranked awakener team “V587” on the scoreboard are all burly and sturdy, capable of frightening children with their bear-like physiques and iron-like strength.

Their name alone exudes power: V587, how commanding and domineering!

V587 punches the Zombie King, kicks mutant beasts, robs the Death Prison of Sin City, and KOs the tyrannical rulers of District C with one move!

No matter how difficult the mission, it’s flawlessly cleared when it falls into their hands.

Their feats become the talk of the Alliance, earning admiration from countless ability users.

Until the grand opening of the inaugural global awakeners challenge, the enigmatic V587 members gather, making their first appearance.

The crowd’s faces turn dumbfounded, “Wait, who are these elderly, young, sick, and two wheelchair-bound cripples? V587? Nooo!”
