When people talk about "love", this feeling seems so distant and even impossible to feel. Would our protagonist be able to warm his heart in the midst of the ice that consumes him?

On Post-apocalyptic earth, a new kind is born. After the great death owing to the Corona Virus Pandemic, along come the newborns. But when the existence of this new race is threatened, a girl must make a choice: Save it or end it.

Kaia is a bratty daughter of Laus, she gets what she wants. Everyone hates her but she doesn't give a damn. She's really annoying not until she met Stone, the badboy in their school.

Chaia era una duquesa de la corte suprema, hasta que un dia en una guerra, pierde a su marido e hijo. Para vengarse, decide dejar los lujos y volverse una guerrera dragon.

A Sacrilege. The love between a god and the incarnation of a demon has aroused the anger of the Gods. Rhaia's memories were forcefully pulled out and all she could do was nothing but watch. She, the demon Queen was the result of a betrayal between Gods and Demons and now she was being punished for seducing the prince of the Gods. The pure love between them has become a game of chess in the hands of others. Nine lifetimes of doom and damnation! 'But wasn't this punishment a bit too light? She should have been thrown into the abyss instead and handed over to the devils.' Rhaia heard the murmurings of the Gods and smiled. Her beloved's memories have also been wiped off and he had been forced into sleep. Soon a twinkle flashed within the depths of her eyes, a sly smile on her lips. 'Who needs memories when the feelings are sincere and the love is real?' She thought. Her eyelids finally closed covering the blue pupils within them. Rhaia journeys through different worlds looking for her missing half without memories of the past on both their parts. Will she survive and get what she wants in the scheme and traps of others when all she could do is go on? The image used is subject to copyright of the true owner.

“Hurting someone’s feelings is easy as throwing a rock in a lake, but do you know how deep that rock can go?”

A man dies after a harsh, exhausting life… and then wakes up again. He is greeted by the Priestess of Worlds, who calmly tells him the impossible: he is being sent to paradise — a place where he can do anything he desires. He may build a world of his own. He may live peacefully with a family in a grand home. He may shape reality itself. Instead of comfort, the protagonist chooses creation. He builds a paradoxical paradise — a world that reflects both his wounds and his curiosity — and slowly, inevitably, he begins to change along with it. But soon, questions rise: Who created paradise in the first place? Why does it exist? And what purpose does such a perfect world serve? This story explores the nature of heaven, illusion, freedom, and the quiet conflicts hidden beneath perfection. Important note: This work was originally written in Russian.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
