mystery

Every human soul is a book. Every scar, every memory, every act, written into its pages. And when someone dies a wrongful death, their “book” refuses to close. Instead, the body twists open and becomes an Unread, a grotesque monster born from a story interrupted. After breaking free from an illusion that held him captive for three long years, Lucian Lysander awakens to a world unfit for the life he remembers. His family is dead. His memories have been carved out. His past is rewritten and edited by someone with the power to reshape lives the way an author rewrites chapters. All he has left is a purpose: find whoever stole his life… and rip their story apart. Follow Lucian as he walks through a world caught in the rising tide of machinery and industrialization, with towering smokestacks, humming gears, ambitious inventions, and a mysterious new energy that powers everything from factories to the rare, graceful machines rolling across cobblestone roads. But behind the mechanical splendor lurk secret organizations, mysterious cults, and the monstrous Unreads born from broken stories. In a world where everything has a story and every story is alive, Lucian must uncover his own before it consumes him.

What happens when the devil on your shoulder turns out to be real? Detective Gabriel was known for his ability to quickly close cases, and the captain taking notice assigned him a special one.

Instead of solving the case, he soon learns demons are real and they're trying to break out of hell. With his case suddenly being a matter of life and death for the whole world, Gabriel is running out time to find, and stop, a ritualistic killer before he can throw the gates wide open and bring hell on earth.

He didn’t want any part of it. He wanted to be independent. He didn’t want to become a side character in the story of some so-called protagonist. Yet, Mo Zhiran couldn’t run. Heaven wouldn’t let him, for he was an extra destined to die for the rise of the protagonist. An expendable nobody, unnoticed and forgotten. In the end, Mo Zhiran was betrayed by his own clan brother just to save a girl who appeared out of nowhere. Worse, before his inevitable death, he even had to block the danger for that same brother, unwillingly. He was basically a Redshirt. “Haha… Heaven is so unfair.” Zhiran hated them both to the core. If he got another chance, he swore he would make them pay a hundredfold for every drop of blood he spilled. And fortunately, he did. Reborn with an unusual system in hand, Mo Zhiran would no longer be a disposable extra. This time, he would carve his own path, one step at a time. Even if it meant being forced to be a Villain.

Aiko Matsumoto never expected salvation to arrive on two wheels. Soaked to the skin and weighed down by months of neglect, she sits alone at a park fountain— until a young Spain cyclist stops, kneels, and begins to wash and untangle her hair. Each careful motion, each quiet hum beneath the storm, carries a message Aiko has longed to hear: You are worth caring for. The boy vanishes into the thunder before she can catch his name, but his gentle touch awakens a fierce resolve. His gift awakens a dormant inheritance: her late mother’s craft of beauty and transformation. In secret, Aiko apprentices at a small neighborhood salon, learns the language of hair, and prepares for a future her aunt forbids. Every knot she untangles—on a mannequin, on a client, within herself— brings new danger at home and sharper questions about the boy who began it all. _________________________________________________ If you like the episodes give the series a like and a review

Each world is bordered by seven endless, impenetrable black walls. Across these seven vast worlds, legends speak of the Ascendants—warriors who surpass the limits of ordinary humans, capable of crossing the mysterious walls between realms to obtain unimaginable power. For three hundred years, no one has managed to cross into the seventh world, the realm of immortality—Paradise—and the secrets of the worlds have remained hidden. The history of these worlds is divided into four eras: • The Era of Legends: a mysterious age filled with myths about divine clans and the immortality of the worlds. No current records accurately describe its events, and no one knows when it began. It is the first era, shrouded in forgotten time. • The Era of Iron and Blood: marked by the emergence of the walls, forbidding kingdoms and cities from approaching them. This era lasted 754 years until the Dawn Revolution toppled the old rulers. • The Era of Light: a fragile period of balance that lasted 300 years, opening the way for rising heroes. During this time, the walls and the specific passages leading to the next world were discovered. Ascendants began exploring the worlds, ascending one by one—until they reached the sixth world, where they paused for seventy years, unable to find a way forward to the most legendary realm. • The Era of the Ascendants: where legend meets reality and impossible feats begin. This new age is heralded by one name spreading across the worlds: Wallstride, the first to traverse all seven worlds—including the legendary Seventh World, once thought unreachable. Unlike the previous worlds, the Sixth World had no walls and was infinite in its expanse, yet Wallstride reached it in a mysterious way beyond comprehension. Years after Wallstride’s arrival, Veron, a determined young man shaped by these legends, embarks on a perilous journey—through shadowed alleys and thieves, wars of influence, deadly battles, and boundless mysterious powers—to uncover secrets, confront enemies, and strive to become the man who will cross all walls. This is a saga of ambition, greatness, and relentless pursuit of power, where every wall hides a secret, every world conceals a mystery, and every step forward demands greater strength, sharper influence, deadlier cunning, and ever-greater sacrifice. Only the boldest can reshape their destiny—but what secrets do these worlds truly hold?

Heiss and Kalika, invented names with damaged pasts, without well-remembered parents with supposed new families. The codex created perfect for killing and the successor who will begin with her family's revenge. Two young people with peculiar inheritances, but with no one to accompany them at the beginning, will face a world led to decadence and corruption. Governed by idealisms, religion, politics and lost history. They will go against what the world has established, trying to gain as many allies as possible along the way. All for "Change," because whenever there is change we are closer to perfection or at least further from the demons that torment us. Only through learning do you understand this world and also understand yourself more. I recommend starting with the author's notes.

In a universe where fate can be snatched like threads off a loom, a young man from a dying world wakes to find he can bend the cycle of life and death - a power that eats away at his own lifeline every time he uses it. Kalath doesn’t care about glory. He only wants his little sister to survive the Blight that’s slowly killing Veridia. When his desperation hits breaking point, reality shudders. He’s touched by the cosmic laws themselves, becoming Threadbound - a human wired straight into the strands of destiny. As the Gardener of the Last Harvest, he can hold death at bay, but every life he saves steals time from his own. His hair silvers, his breath shortens, and it becomes clear: his awakening isn’t a miracle - it’s a war drum. The expansion-hungry Aethelgard Empire has sensed him. Their Inquisition is already on the move, ready to wipe out “anomalies” like him, and gearing up for a Holy War to seize Veridia’s remaining fate-threads. Pinned between the curse eating his life away, a world collapsing under rot, and a cosmic war machine hungry for conquest, Kalath has no room for wishful thinking. He has to learn the rules of a game where destiny is currency, and the only way to save what’s left might be tearing apart the laws of the universe and stitching them anew. (This is my first story, so don’t expect too much. Hope you enjoy it! I’ve got plenty more coming, so stay tuned!!)

After passing through many tribulations and defeating countless adversaries, Lumine finally met her brother, Bai Luo. "Brother, how did you become the Geo Emperor?" "Well, it was only for one day." "Then, what about the first great sage of Buer?" "It was a coincidence." "Okay, I believe you, but how the hell did you become the 12th Fatui Harbinger?" "I can explain that." "Then, why does Ningguang get scared whenever your name is mentioned?" Lumine asked skeptically. "It's because Bai Luo stole her Jade Chamber," Zhongli calmly answered. "You did WHAT?!" "Oh, it was all in the past. Here, try this Sunset Fruit; it’s sweet. Want to eat?" Bai Luo asked while presenting a sunset fruit with a sickeningly sweet scent. _________________________________ As the newly promoted 12th Fatui Harbinger [Instructor], Bai Luo was a little panicked. Because the Queen of Snezhnaya gave him a mission, which was to go to Inazuma as a Snezhnayan Envoy. As a time traveler, he knew the consequences of going to Inazuma, and he would definitely be killed by General Raiden. But if he didn't go, the Queen of Snezhnaya, Tsarista would kill him. So he chose the traditional art of Teyvat - fishing. ______________________________ If you want to read chapters in advance, be able to see the images that webnovel does not want you to see and support me here I leave you my patreon.

Escaping the assassin organization that raised me wasn’t easy. Surviving it was a miracle. Only sheer luck saved my life, specifically, being rescued by the daughter of the continent’s strongest Healing Bloodline, the Lix Family. But I couldn’t stay with her forever. I needed a place to hide, somewhere no one could trace my identity. And then I found the Royal Academy. ‘They hide all student records. It’s the safest place on the continent.’ Or so I thought. Because somehow, my forged identity marked me as a genius beyond anything the Academy had ever seen. “...Why does everything go wrong the moment I escape?”

Devon Albert, the outcast omega of Redstone Pack, once believed that finding his fated mate meant forever. But when his mate, the proud Beta, rejected him for being “a useless male who can’t bear pups,” Devon’s world shattered. Branded weak, beaten, and humiliated, he was cast out into the wilderness to die. He didn’t. He survived. He became a rogue. One stormy night, while hiding in the forest that marked the border between packs, Devon stumbled upon a brutal ambush, and a terrified five-year-old boy at its center. Acting on instinct, he threw himself between the assassins and the child, nearly losing his life in the process. When rescue finally came, Devon awoke in the luxurious but dangerous territory of Ravenmoon Pack, the most powerful pack across the border. The boy he saved? The heir to the Alpha’s throne. To repay his bravery, the Alpha offered him a position, as the heir’s nanny. Devon never expected to stay. But fate had other plans. The Alpha of Ravenmoon, Lucien Hale, was everything Devon feared, cold, domineering, and impossibly magnetic. Their worlds should have clashed. Until one fateful night, an accidental kiss stirred a dormant bond neither could explain… nor resist. As passion brews behind closed doors and danger lurks from both packs, Devon finds himself trapped between desire and survival, torn between a contract of duty and a love that could destroy them both. What happens when a broken omega becomes the heart of the Alpha’s family… and maybe, his mate?

Jack thought his life was simple enough: a steady job under Barksen, a promotion that promised stability, and a quiet existence with money tucked away for the future. He was lean, sharp-tongued, and bitterly amused by the world’s stupidity, but content to drift without risk. His friend Julias, however, was everything Jack was not—suave, powerful, and unnervingly smooth. A man whose presence filled rooms, whose silence carried weight, and whose eyes seemed to peel back the layers of anyone who dared meet them. What began as laughter over a ruined prom dress spirals into something darker. In Julias’s marble-floored apartment, amid biblical paintings and the scent of red wine, Jack is pressed into a conversation that feels less like banter and more like initiation. Julias speaks of predators, of power, of risks worth taking—and suddenly Jack finds himself confessing things he never meant to say. Words of ruin. Words of killing. The friendship between fire and water begins to shift into something more dangerous: a mentorship, a test, perhaps even a trap. Julias’s questions are not idle. His gaze is steel, his tone a blade, and his world is one where politics and ambition are war, where rivals are predators, and where survival demands ruthlessness. Jack, once a bitter but harmless cynic, is being drawn into a web of power, manipulation, and moral compromise. As Jack mentally tries to balance his dreams of law school and independence against Julias’s intoxicating vision of dominance, he must decide: is he content with a safe, early retirement, or will he risk everything for the promise of real power? And if he chooses the latter, will he still recognize himself—or will Julias’s world consume him entirely? But then— Jack ordinary life changed when he got stabbed by a seductress. "The Little Man" is a psychological thriller of ambition, friendship, and corruption. It explores the fragile line between loyalty and manipulation, the seduction of power, and the terrifying ease with which people can be coaxed into extraordinary darkness.
