"Sect Master Uncle is just a mortal, who just happens to have his own 'billion' interpretations of various spells." Atop Misty Peak, the sect's senior disciple was educating the new beginners. At that moment, Sect Leader Ye Feng, holding a blade of grass, waved it gently, and a fierce Sword Qi split the sky in two, revealing a dark spatial rift that was difficult to heal, frightening the gods above. The new disciple pointed at the sky, shocked, "And you told me the Sect Leader is just a mortal?"

When I died I didn't expect to wake up with dark beings of immeasurable power looming over me. I didn't expect to be given new life in a brand new world. Now, armed with a powerful system that makes me stronger after every fight, I might be the last thing standing between the multiverse and absolute annihilation. As I complete quests, defeat foes and become stronger, I still don't know if I'll be able to save this world, my old world and all the worlds in between. "And below... the MAW beckoned..."

Chen Yi and Lin Qingrou have been inseparable since childhood, neighbors, classmates, and best friends growing up together through every phase of school life. As they enter high school, the lines between friendship and romance blur, and Chen Yi realizes his feelings for the girl who’s always been by his side—a girl he thought he knew better than anyone. Lin Qingrou seems to embody every trait of the perfect schoolgirl: beautiful, intelligent, diligent, and modest—the archetypal campus goddess whom every boy admires from afar. Chen Yi, an average student with a penchant for games and little ambition, is shocked to realize the stirrings of young love for someone so close, and, with the encouragement of their friends, he finally confesses. To his amazement and joy, Lin Qingrou accepts, seemingly bringing his romantic dreams to life. But Chen Yi’s happiness is built on an illusion: Lin Qingrou, beneath her innocent, gentle exterior, harbors dark secrets and dangerous habits born of trauma and self-loathing. Pressured by an incident in her past—a r*pe at a party that left her body changed and her self-perception shattered—she falls into a spiral of sexual addiction and exploitation at the hands of men who see her as nothing more than a plaything. She presents the world with a flawless mask, but in reality, Lin Qingrou is trapped in cycles of shame, longing, and bodily betrayal, using sex as both punishment and escape. As Chen Yi experiences the innocence and sweetness of first love—the excitement of holding hands, shared laughter, and exploring gentle fetishes—he remains blissfully ignorant of Lin Qingrou’s double life. For her, each moment with Chen Yi is colored by guilt and confusion; she desperately wants to protect him from the truth of her depravity, even as she continues to be used and humiliated by others. The novel is a dark juxtaposition between youthful, wholesome romance and the ugly realities of trauma, addiction, and self-destruction. Alternating between sweet scenes of puppy love and explicit, shocking encounters, My Childhood Sweetheart Can't Possibly Be This Lewd explores the dichotomy of appearance versus reality, and the devastating lengths to which people go to conceal pain and find acceptance. As their relationship deepens, Lin Qingrou is torn between her growing affection for Chen Yi and her inability to break free from the chains of her own self-hatred. Can love heal a shattered heart, or will Lin Qingrou’s secrets destroy her final chance at happiness?

Between anxiety, crushes, college chaos, and overthinking everything, Oscurita becomes both the voice in Ailín’s head and her accidental life coach.

Ethan Cross has lost to Adrian Vale his entire life. Lost crayons in kindergarten. Lost races in elementary school. Lost basketball championships in high school. Now at prestigious Crestwood University, Ethan is determined to finally WIN something—specifically, the heart of Emma Sterling, the campus belle who makes everyone's head turn. There's just one problem: Adrian Vale is his roommate. And Adrian keeps ruining everything. When Ethan tries to study in the library near Emma, Adrian shows up. When Ethan joins the basketball team to impress her, Adrian becomes team captain. When Ethan finally works up courage to ask Emma to the Spring Festival, Adrian interrupts with some "emergency" that isn't really an emergency. What confuses Ethan most is that Adrian doesn't even seem interested in Emma. Instead, his rival watches Ethan with intense dark eyes, sits too close during study sessions, and gets weirdly aggressive when other guys talk to Ethan. It's like Adrian is obsessed with beating him at everything—except Adrian isn't competing for Emma at all. Then Ethan sees Adrian laughing with Lucas Park, the charming art major, and something ugly twists in his chest. Something that feels like jealousy but can't be because Ethan doesn't care who Adrian dates. Except he can't stop thinking about it. Can't stop noticing how Adrian's smile never reaches his eyes when he's with Lucas. Can't stop wondering why his heart races when Adrian stands too close. When Emma confesses she's been dating someone else all along, Ethan's carefully planned future crumbles. But Adrian is there, as always, with that infuriating smirk and an honesty that changes everything: "I've never been competing for her, idiot. I've been competing for you." Now Ethan must face the terrifying truth—he's been losing to Adrian his whole life because he was running the wrong race. And the real victory might be surrendering to the rival who's loved him all along.
