SPRING ENCHANTMENT

I always thought my place was in the city. My tiny apartment, my quiet routine, the silence... it all made me feel safe. I didn’t have friends, I rarely went out, and honestly? I didn’t need to. Life was fine just the way it was— Peaceful. Predictable. Under control. But everything changed the day my grandfather died. My family didn’t waste any time getting rid of me. I was left with nothing—except for an inheritance that felt more like a joke than a blessing: An old countryside farm called Spring Blossom Refuge, and a strange letter. A letter that spoke of a hidden place called Uke Mochi, and begged me—not asked, begged—to find it. With no money, no direction, and no choice left… I found myself on a train to the outskirts of Kyoto. That’s where I met her—Ailany. A girl who lives a simple, quiet life… But who carries a past she doesn’t remember. She won’t say it out loud, but I know she’s connected to that forgotten village. I can feel it—in the way she looks up at the sky, like she’s searching for something. Or someone. Spring Blossom Refuge… It’s not just some abandoned farm. There’s something about this place— A strange energy flowing through the air, the trees, the earth itself. Like time moves differently here. Like the past hasn’t really gone away. And here I am… A boy who never wanted to leave his comfort zone, now caught in the middle of mysteries, impossible choices… And feelings I’m not ready to face. Kaori, my adoptive aunt, came looking for me with a warm smile and that gentle kindness only she can give. She’s sweet, thoughtful… and maybe too affectionate. There’s something about her that makes my heart race— And it terrifies me not knowing why. Ailany, with her charming way of speaking and that contagious joy that lights up every word, has become impossible to ignore. Her eyes, full of life and tenderness, seem to hide promises yet to be spoken. And even if she doesn’t know it yet… someone else is coming. My childhood friend. A girl who’s always loved me. An unstoppable force of nature who never gave up on me— And now, she’s about to turn my world upside down all over again. Amid the magic that lingers in this land and the mystery surrounding Uke Mochi, I’ve realized something: This journey isn’t just about finding a lost village… It’s about finding myself. What truth did my grandfather want me to uncover? What is Uke Mochi—and why was it hidden from the world? And why does it feel like, at the end of this road… I won’t just be choosing my fate— I’ll be choosing who holds my heart.

Galaxy Alliance: The Void War

Aura has always been the odd one out in her gaming crew, playing Galaxy Alliance: The Void War on a clunky PC without a VR headset while her boyfriend Navi, his fearless best friend Kai, and his tech-savvy cousin Lucas dominate the leaderboards with their VR setups. For three years, their mana combat suits—fusing arcane spells with futuristic tech—have carved through the game’s Void Spawn, shadowy creatures of purple-black energy, earning them the top spot through skill and banter-filled camaraderie. But when a routine mission is interrupted by a chilling message—“The top ten teams of your world have been selected and will now take part in the Galaxy Alliance Recruitment Trial”—a blinding light rips them from their rooms into a reality where the game is no longer a game. Stranded on a storm-swept planet of glowing crystals and scattered boulders, Aura awakens in a mana-powered combat suit, her mind reeling from a teleportation she never signed up for. Tasked with finding her team and reaching a pickup point in 24 hours, Aura must learn to master her suit’s power to survive relentless Void Spawn attacks as she navigates the recruitment’s deadly Trial. Aura’s growing fascination with real magic clashes with her fear for her friends’ safety. And the Trial will push Aura, Navi, Kai, and Lucas to prove their skills, their performance shaping their world’s fate against a ravenous Void Spawn wave. In a vibrant fusion of magic and sci-fi, Galaxy Alliance: The Void War traces Aura’s ascent from underestimated gamer to formidable warrior, her twin-sword mastery and latent magical potential unlocking in a universe where every choice could save her planet—or seal its doom

Dimensional Quest: I Was Reincarnated Into My Trashy Fanfic

David Star was a broken man. Divorced, drunk, and miserable, he spent the last five years of his life writing a chaotic fanfic where the female protagonist escaped a tragic fate in her original franchise and gained friends from other worlds to live a happy life full of adventure. But before he could finish it, he was killed in a random drive-by shooting at the age of thirty. Then he opened his eyes… in his own story he remembers nothing about. Now he has a second chance. The heroines of countless franchises, girls who were never meant to meet, are here. Their stories are different and somehow, they're crossing paths with him. Armed with the Chaotic God's Harem System, David gains strength through seduction, passion, and connection. To survive and thrive in this world, he’ll have to do what he couldn’t before: live boldly, selfishly, and make every woman who enters his life want to stay. A black-haired time traveler clings to him like he's her lifeline. A cheerful blonde gyaru with a love for cosplay looks at him like he’s her entire world. More girls appear, each with a story, each with scars, and each one drawn to something in him. * * * Author's Note: Hope that AI-generated synopsis was bearable. I hate reading AI-generated words, but I'm not the best at summarizing things and would likely end up writing an entire chapter's worth of words for it. The cover for this was also AI-generated and I couldn't get it right so what's uploaded is as close as possible, though David doesn't look like what's shown on the cover. :/ This is my first time writing, and honestly? I don’t know if it’s good. But! It’s therapeutic, and I hope someone out there enjoys it. The story doesn’t take itself seriously most of the time. Some chapters are total fourth-wall breaks just to explain stuff without bogging down the plot. Anyway, the story starts off a little dark and slow, but that fades pretty quickly. Once things get going, it becomes full-on smutty harem fanfic trash--and I say that with love. Expect mechanics inspired by 'Dimensional Group Chat' and 'Inner Voice' novels. Expect crossover madness. Expect a horny bastard building a multiversal empire. - No yuri in the harem - No NTR for David in his new world - No mercy if he’s out of patience - He doesn’t like killing women, but he will if he has to - He will steal your girl (yes, Netori) David gets strong fast, and yeah, it’s kinda broken. But that’s the point. He suffered enough in his old life. Now it’s his turn to win. If you think this is trash… you’re probably right. But maybe you’ll enjoy the dumpster fire with me. Just as a warning, I have a neurological condition that makes me fall asleep whenever I do anything stimulating (like writing or revising chapters) so while I will try to upload chapters as much as I can, I can't promise any specific schedule because my ass gets put to sleep quite often.
