An dem Tag, an dem ich den Krebsdiagnosebericht erhielt, war das Qixi-Fest. Um meinen Mann und meinen Sohn nicht zu beunruhigen, log ich über Überstunden und ging allein aus, um mich zu entspannen. Doch dann sah ich meinen Mann und seine erste Liebe, wie sie Hand in Hand mit meinem Sohn gingen und wie eine Familie aussahen. Der Mann, mit dem ich im Keller geblieben war, höhnte: "Song Wanwan, du warst so viele Jahre an Su Xiaoyues Stelle, es ist Zeit, sie zurückzugeben." Der Junge, den ich unzählige Nächte in den Schlaf gewiegt hatte, stand vor der Geliebten: "Tante Xiaoyue ist sanft und kocht gut; ich möchte, dass sie meine Mutter wird." Sie alle wünschten mir den Tod. Und ich war tatsächlich dem Tod nahe. Aber warum eilten diese Menschen, als ich im Sterben lag, an mein Bett, knieten nieder und flehten mich an, nicht zu gehen! Zudem stellte sich überraschenderweise heraus, dass die reine erste Liebe meines Mannes eine so komplizierte Vergangenheit hatte.

She doesn’t remember her past. Fate does. Liz thought she could live an ordinary life but fire doesn’t want to free her. It begins to answer her emotions, memories invade her dreams, and people are drawn to her with feelings that feel far too deep to be new. The closer she gets to understanding herself, the more dangerous her world becomes. Unaware that she is cursed, Liz is pulled into conflicts that echo across lifetimes. One man loves her with fierce devotion, determined to protect her at any cost. Another remains distant and watchful, as though bound by rules she does not yet understand. Love surrounds her, but none of it feels safe. As fragments of forgotten lives awaken, Liz realizes she is not simply remembering the past—she is inheriting its consequences. Each truth uncovered brings more questions, and each step forward risks repeating a mistake made long ago. Godblood is a slow-burn romance fantasy about reincarnation, obsession, and fate’s refusal to let go. When love itself is woven into a curse, survival may be the only victory left.

Evil is present in all people

Seth Ryall, the last noble son of a fallen royal house, sets out on a quest to save his sister after she is kidnapped by the dastardly blood mages of the Vrapahen kingdom. Through the help of a mysterious system, he levels up and gains magic and power, all the while in pursuit of his sister and the blood mage that captured her. He faces off against sentient monsters, dragonkin, magic remnants, holy knights, vampires, and even celestials (of course, that is much much later down the line.) This story follows his creeping descent into madness, as he betrays his religion, morals, and even his friends. A couple of things before we get into the story proper. This is my first swing at this, and I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous. I appreciate honest reviews and will always look forward to your constructive criticisms. I want to stress that our mc starts out pretty weak, and the system he gets doesn't make him op. He will become op eventually, but it will take time. And so will this novel. Anyways, enjoy, and please reach out when you see anything I should be paying attention to.

"Seriously? This is what you have decided to go with? Alright, then." Lauren took two courageous steps near him, almost staring into his red eyes. "Kill me!" She challenged him in almost a whisper, which echoed in his ears. Elliott eyes grew dark, his pupils dilated, taking in the sight of the brave girl still standing staring at him. The scent of human blood wafted towards him, causing his fangs to protrude and his mouth to water. He could feel the thirst raging within him. "You aren't taking it seriously, are you?" He questioned, frustrated — like she had never seen him before. He looked down and shook his head harder, trying to get rid of the newfound desire to devour her. Lauren could feel anger burning inside her. "Why should I? When you are talking like some psychopath... Well, just so you know, if I'm in danger, you're in danger too. And what if I spill the beans about you being a vampire? Think about that." Lauren raised her eyebrows as she stared at him, amused at herself. 'I'm doing it great. I just need to stay away from him after this,' she thought. He stopped then, motionless for a moment. Seconds seemed to pass by as Elliott took his very own sweet time to answer her. The corner of his lips curved upward as he bend down towards her level, stared straight in her big charcoal eyes. "A lowly human like you, who can just threaten us with warnings like this, and then obviously will not expose something that will result in their own life." His words were sharp as knives. It was hard to know, if he was insulting her or warning her. Elliott chuckled, and his eyes, which turned just dark red, stared into hers, where his were much darker than hers. He noticed the fear, confusion, and ego that had been shaken now. Elliott cleared his throat. "I don't understand you," he told her suddenly, his black-magic voice so quiet that she had to strain to hear him. She narrowed her eyes at him, not trusting herself to speak, and she was still deciding the best course of action when he said "Aren't you afraid? The demon will come for you," he observed her reaction and noticed how she gasped in what looked like a slight emotion of fear. But she retracted her expression and showed her brave side, while he knew how her breathing were working.

People don’t just vanish in this kingdom. One moment they’re alive—talking, laughing, breathing. The next, there’s nothing left of them but empty space where they used to exist. Kael Thorne is sent north to find out why. He’s called a noble, but that isn’t what he feels like. Weapon fits better. Something that keeps moving even when it stops feeling like it should. The truth isn’t random. It feels chosen. Like someone decided who gets to disappear—and who gets to keep pretending the world is normal. And behind it all is a name people don’t say out loud. The Architect. Kael doesn’t know why it’s him. But something in him feels like he was already part of this long before the first person ever vanished. And then there is a girl he was never meant to meet— but somehow already belongs to his story. Harriet. The kind of name that doesn’t sound dangerous… until you realize everything starts changing after it appears.

To cope with the fierce competition between the various Cosmoses, the top-tier gods of the prime Cosmos to which Blue Star belongs, inspired from an unknown source, organized a Lord Competition that spans the entire Cosmos. With the spirituality of intelligent lifeforms as the core, supplemented by the power of a world, they are cast into the chaos outside the Cosmos. The power of chaos is transformed into a sanctuary, and the intelligent lifeforms become the masters of these small worlds, known as Lords. Then, using the connection between the intelligent lifeforms and the prime world as a guide, these newly created small worlds are drawn into the prime Cosmos. Then, through the competition, powerful Lords are selected. The eliminated Lords will have the connection to their territories severed and will be sent back to their original worlds. A portion of their territories will be given as rewards to the powerful Lords, while another portion is absorbed by the prime Cosmos, taken by the gods, or becomes a new planet in the Cosmos. The competition will continue until the participating Lords become gods, only then will they be able to leave the competition. An unknown amount of time has passed, and another competition is about to begin.
