Shen La, a special forces operative born with the Heavenly Eye, has been able to see ghosts since childhood. During a mission involving a supernatural incident, his abilities were exposed—leading to his recruitment by a hidden Chinese government agency: the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation. This mysterious organization is tasked with investigating and handling all manner of supernatural phenomena. Within the Bureau, Shen La encounters a group of uniquely gifted and eccentric colleagues, including a mysterious white-haired man known only as Invincible, and Sun Fatty, a genius with an exceptionally high IQ. Through a series of increasingly perilous encounters—including the resurrection of the Ancestor Shaman, the haunting Ghost Opera of Qinghe, and a ghost ship that has wandered for centuries—Shen La begins to grow both in power and insight. Yet as the cases deepen, a shadowy force behind the scenes begins to reveal itself. Its ultimate goal appears to be a secret manual said to grant immortality...

This story follows a figure named Star, the embodiment of positivity, as he attempts to understand his purpose. From the beginning, he discovers many things about the world he is in, meeting new friends and foes in this fantasy/heroic dynamic story. As he ventures further into the narrative, he realizes that the world is not as pure as he once thought; negativity threatens to destroy the balance. How will he combat it? "There will always be a battle between two concepts—life vs. death, light vs. darkness, good vs. evil, all under Negativity and Positivity. What if these concepts were personified with emotions and stories? We may not fully understand them, but they exist among us, deserving their place in the light—the darkest abyss vs. the brightest stars."

A soul out of place. A universe out of balance. A mission no one can know exists. Sebastian Dalton awakens in a world that shouldn't know him—in a body that isn't quite his own—with memories that defy the laws of reality. Shadows ripple beneath the surface of a galaxy marching toward catastrophe, and something deeper than war is unraveling behind the scenes. Guided by a voice no one else can hear and shaped by forces older than time, Sebastian must navigate a reality built on shifting truths. The future hinges not on conquest, but on subtle correction. And if he fails, what falls may not be just one galaxy. In the end, he isn't here to fight fate. He's here to replace it.

Auren wanted a quiet life. Maybe hunt a few Starfiends, nap under the sun, and leave the whole saving the world thing to someone else. He’s done playing the hero. Unfortunately, fate and whatever cosmic force hates him seem to have other plans. Now he’s stuck with three disasters in human form. Alwyn is a grumpy kid with a vengeance streak and a secret. He’s a regressor reliving his life. Erika is a sharp-tongued opportunist obsessed with wealth, stuck with a mysterious system she can't seem to shake. Han is a cheerful airhead with suspiciously sharp combat skills, and as it turns out, he’s also a transmigrator. And then there’s Auren himself, a reincarnator saddled with all his memories and none of the peace he hoped for. Peaceful life? Not happening. Saving the world? Apparently back on the table. [A/N: No romance, only found family, friendship, and angst of course.] Update every 2 to 3 days.

Thus begins the story of Teiko’s rebirth

*** authors note: hope you enjoy the novel, and if you know ways I can improve my writing please leave a comment, thanks for reading*** Synopsis: Dale Han was humanity’s final hope—and its final failure. In a world scorched by war and haunted by the Demon God's shadow, Dale reached the legendary Primordial Flame… only to lose everything. But the flame did not consume him. It gave him a second chance. Now seventeen again and back at the bottom of Reynald Hero Academy, Dale is no longer the weakest cadet mocked for his meager mana. Armed with future knowledge, refined swordsmanship, and a terrifying secret—his mana grows every time he dies—Dale is determined to rise. But nothing is simple. His once-beloved Saintess doesn’t remember him. His future allies see a stranger. And within him burns a fire that defies the gods and could unmake the world itself. Can he reshape fate without losing himself in the flame? From disgrace to legend, from death to destiny—this is the story of a fallen hero who refused to fade, and the inferno he leaves in his wake.

Rick Lane, a successful man in his 50s, built an empire of restaurants across the country. To the world, he's a self-made success story. But behind the polished smile and expensive suits lies a man burdened by regret. The greatest of these: losing Jenny Kane—the only woman he ever truly loved. One quiet night, Rick falls into an unusually vivid dream and wakes up sitting in an old wooden chair, surrounded by chalkboards and the scent of chalk dust. He's back in his college computer science class, at a small provincial university—only it's not just a dream. He's young again, in body and mind, with memories of the future still intact. At first, he thinks he's gone mad. But when the experience repeats, day after day—living his older life during daylight, then returning to his youth at night—he realizes he's been given a second chance. A rare, mysterious bridge between past and present. And this time, he’s determined not to lose Jenny. As Rick begins to alter his actions in the past, echoes of change ripple into his present. Some are beautiful. Others, darker and unexpected. The more he shapes the past, the more uncertain his future becomes. Friends disappear, new rivals emerge, and the restaurant empire begins to falter. Worse, Jenny in the present seems more like a stranger with every passing day. Now torn between his hard-earned legacy and a hauntingly fragile second chance at love, Rick must face the ultimate question: Can he truly rewrite the past to fix the future—or will he destroy everything he has left? A story of redemption, time, and the delicate cost of what we choose to hold onto.

Doctor Aurora and Officer Schäfer are drawn together by the murder of a mysterious boy. The killer is a curse in human form—an ancient force traveling through time to erase humanity and restore nature. Their pursuit becomes more than an investigation; it’s a battle across centuries. The curse leaves destruction and cryptic clues behind, leading Aurora and Schäfer through a maze of time. As they chase it, they uncover hints that the boy’s death is tied to them in ways they don’t yet understand. The deeper they go, the more the lines between justice and destiny blur. Haunted by glimpses of possible futures, they must face a truth that will change everything. What began as a hunt becomes a journey that could reshape history—and reveal a bond with the boy far deeper than they ever imagined.

The sky tore open—and the earth followed. One by one, the seals broke. And with them, hell answered the call. Not in whispers. Not in shadows. But in flame, storm, and death. Cities fell. Oceans rose. The righteous vanished without a trace, and the damned were left to face what crawled from the void. The demons had broken the ancient covenant—a pact that held the balance between heaven, hell, and humanity. And in their treachery, the world was left defenseless. So the Divine issued a command: “Send me an army.” But none answered. None, except nine. Nine demons rose from the ashes of their own damnation. Not out of loyalty. Not out of guilt. But for something deeper—honor, purpose, redemption. They would fight their own kind. Protect the world they once helped break. They are not heroes. They are not saviors. They are the Hell‘s 9.

Eighteen-year-old Ethan Vale awakens as a Mage with average stats and high hopes. But when he discovers his talent — gaining permanent Mana, Mana Regen, and Spell Power every time he fully exhausts his mana — his path to power changes forever. While others take years to rank up a single spell, Ethan embraces a chill life of relentless casting, café mornings, and dungeon afternoons. In a world ruled by Guilds and gold, he’ll rise — one exhausted mana pool at a time. _______________________________________ Hi there, Author here! This is my first attempt to write a novel, so I guess the novel can only get better the further I venture down this path... right?? -.- I'm always open to new ideas, or corrections so if you got something you think would better my novel, then just write a comment or review and I'll see what I can do! Just want to give a little more info about where I want to take my novel. Expect this to be a more chill dungeon clearing novel, happening in modern society, where the mc starts out weak, but grinds everyday to secure a better life for his family. I want to stay clear of most cringe clichés and arrogant young masters. At this point in time, this isn’t going to be one of those novels where the MC keeps going to higher worlds, or where the system has some hidden agenda for him. (If you want it to be, then tell me) For now, it’s just a little fun project, because I couldn’t find any good chill dungeon novels — so what better way to enjoy one than to write it myself? Lastly here are some more tags people may want: No Harem (Single Female Lead), No NTR, No Yuri, Dungeon Clearing, No Tragic Events, Heartwarming Family, Future Plans for MC Starting Own Family with FL.

In a world where power isn’t just a privilege but a birthright, those born with supernatural abilities stand at the top—revered, feared, and often consumed by their own arrogance. The powerless? They’re left to survive in the shadows, treated as nothing more than an afterthought. Xavier was never supposed to escape that system. Created through the Superior Project, he was meant to be a weapon, nothing more. But fate had other plans. A scientist with a conscience risked everything to save him, giving him a new life in a foreign land. There, he found something he was never meant to have—friendship, family, and the freedom to choose his own path. But the past doesn’t let go so easily. As his powers begin to surface, so do the questions. Is he any different from those who see themselves as superior? Can he hold onto the humanity he’s found, or will power twist him like all the rest? And when the people who made him come looking, will he run? Or will he finally face the truth about who he really is? ------------------------------------------------- Support my book on other Sites :) : Wattpad: https://www.wattpad.com/story/368678204-project-superior-the-chronicles-of-the-unseen Royal Road: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/86403/project-superior-the-chronicles-of-the-unseen Scribblehub: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1111001/project-superior-the-chronicles-of-the-unseen/

Many years later, Tenkei Shiomi would look back on the moment he first stepped into the Holy Grail War—and perhaps, fate had already been sealed from the start. Thrown into the Land of Shadows with no warning, becoming Scáthach's disciple. Taking in Caren, the daughter Kirei couldn't raise, and adopting Sakura, the second daughter of Tokiomi. Just when he thought his quiet life raising children in Fuyuki was finally beginning, the Holy Grail chose him—and branded him with a Command Spell. He had planned to summon a Berserker into the war... and then you're telling me it turned out to be the legendary Magus and Fairy Queen Morgan? “Well, since I’m always being pushed forward, I might as well step ahead of the push.” Unless... even that thought had already been accounted for. ...

In the Book of the Heralds, it is written what a priest must give to gain power: "Forget joy; understand what power brings. Power brings misery, and to understand what misery is, one has to forget all joy. Understand this, human, for those who are powerful should carry the pain of the living on their shoulders and the pain of the dead in their hearts. So those who have no power can live with joy." Join Kanrel on his quest to find the truth of the mysteries that he is presented with: the Angels and the Otherkind; what is their connection; and why do the Angels prophesy of a coming war, an ascension of the Otherkind, and the destruction of humanity by the will of the Betrayed? Follow him as he starts as a novice and becomes a fully-fledged priest while vowing to carry the burden of power for the sake of the weak, but all comes with a cost... Forget joy. - - - What to expect: The story is a bit slow, mainly focusing on thoughts, different ideas, and feelings that the main character, Kanrel, experiences in his life. So do not expect many action sequences. FYI, this story was first posted on to another site/app by me. I would link it here as proof, but I am not sure if it is okay to link to another site that offers a similar service as does WebNovel.
