The route to become the Emperor is a given? Nah, I still don't want it..." "Oh? I'm courting death you say? Unfortunately for you, death is already my woman..." ======= Almost 200,000 words (Around 170 Chapters) available for free! What to expect (Updated June 2026) : -Male protagonist who is trying to find who he is in the beginning and increasingly becomes level-headed and ruthless to enemies. Divine Emperor of Death is his calamity title the world gave him and not his personality, so don’t expect MC to be utterly black-hearted here. -Growth style from young to old, a epic adventure that takes itself seriously as the chapter and volumes advances -Harem. Slow-burn romance for the first two hundred chapters and it increases in pace once MC takes on second wife. Harem is treated extremely important here with their own personalities and flaws. No trophy wives. MC doesn’t abandon harem members to go off on a solo adventure. -Character-driven story with long-term growth. MC makes a few mistakes in the beginning and works to rectify. -Logical cultivation system with nearly no mistakes in terms of power leveling battles. -Unique blend of many types of architecture and eastern fantasy, but mostly latter since this is a cultivation novel. -Quick battles, no-nonsense approach to most enemies, and epic battles, tribulations and actions with lasting consequences. -Magical beast, calamities, strange lifeforms and locations. -The main character is not overpowered at the beginning, he'll have to climb his way up. And his treasure is simply dangerous to use, which makes it extremely challenging for him to survive. -Growth arc, adventure arcs, revenge arcs, romance arcs, epic tribulation arcs, family arcs and many more. -Regular updates (2 chapters/day) + bonus chapters and mass releases when possible ======= Some words from author: English isn't my main language, so please bear with it if you found some mistakes. The first few hundred chapters do have grammar mistakes since I was a beginner at that time. Please bear with me until the grammar and the content gets fleshed out. This is an epic (long form story) instead of a quick wish-fulfillment novel as we follow the story of Davis from the start, so it's bound to be slow but steady. There are epic moments at certain points which my readers have praised repeatedly. Also, the [best harem novel] in the entire Webnovel according to my readers in Discord. ======= Want to see more official art of the story and discuss the story with others? Join the Discord!

Death Guns In Another World

Death Guns In Another World

Alexander Kael Touch, a self-made young billionaire, found his meteoric rise tragically cut short on a school trip. But fate had other plans, whisking him and his classmates away to a realm of swords and magic – a world where power manifested as unique: ''Gifts." While friends awoke to magnificent Gifts, Alex's Gift yielded only two enigmatic guns: one gleaming silver, the other shrouded in black. Worse, he couldn't use magic like his peers, drawing scorn and derision. Yet, fueled by an unyielding spirit and a burning dream, Alex refused to falter. In this new world, he craved not wealth, but the strength to forge his own destiny. One goal burned bright: to rise once more, not to the peaks of financial power, but to the pinnacle of strength and control. This is the chronicle of Alexander Kael Touch, the boy with two guns in a world of wonders. A tale of relentless struggle, forged in the crucible of mockery and doubt. A journey to the apex, where the scorned student will become the ultimate warrior. Whispers of the "Death Guns Master" stir, echoes of a legend rising from slumber. The world may have forgotten them, but they are coming back. †††††††††††† Nickaido's here with D-Guns, do not expect the smartest MC because he was once a billionaire, is still young, he has his flaws, he will learn and grow, so will the other characters. At the beginning other characters are stronger but worry not everything will change starting from around chapter 80 onward. Also sorry in advance because some of the female characters have strong backgrounds but it's for the sake of the future story, this book is just the start, I'm still improving. Sorry in advance, English is not my first language, so they may be grammatical errors and misspelled words. Please bear with me. I'm trying to improve to provide a better story. Starting from chapter 200th, I have started using Grammarly premium to help me with the English, so I think it's become better. As for the earliest chapters, I have started to re-edit them slowly; I will do more as I get more time. Maybe hire a professional editor when I can. Once again, this is not some sophisticated story; it has many flaws, which I'm trying to learn from; however, this doesn't make the story less enjoyable. Would you please give it a try?

The Wielder of Death Magic

The Wielder of Death Magic

Thrust into an enigmatic world born from bloodshed; venture inside its complexities, dark-side, and always changing nature. At the center, a boy; brought up by an exiled mage, steps into a life of independence. A test to try and change his life for the better after witnessing what war can do to a person. The walk towards finding a stable living gets toppled as a unique magical element awakens. Using people, toying with emotions, doing anything and everything to get what he wants, this is the life of the next Death Reaper. Mostly emotionless, life continues as questions about his state of mind and being remains clouded behind many personas. This isn’t the story of a single man, it’s the story of a whole world. Read as the world builds itself from the ground up. Conspiracies, evil, the dark side of humanity. In addition, tis the start of a new age; the birth of monsters – a story depicting the tales of the first heroes and demons to ever exist. The Wielder of Death Magic isn’t a typical fantasy. The heroes don’t summon forth power from heroes of old, here, the characters are the ones who make up the myths and legends for the next generation. Amidst the turmoil, Staxius, he lives on, watching and waiting as the world grows. P.S, I’m not that normal of a writer, my advice is to not expect anything going into this world. Forget everything, I personally, don’t care about rules and limitations and what can be considered to be the norm – the characters are given life, the world moves on its own; I’m just a spectator. No plot, nothing planned, all that you read is the product of the characters moving and acting individually. As opposed to me subjecting them with my emotions, the connection is reversed. They are the ones who dictate the story (Believe it or not, that's the way I write) A world, a story, characters, and the foolish author; we all evolve as one. On behalf of the people mentioned above, thanks for reading, I appreciate it all. [Cover is copyrighted by Sxperimental]

Strongest Scammer: Scamming The World, One Death At A Time

Strongest Scammer: Scamming The World, One Death At A Time

“You Scammer! Return me my 10,000-year-old Mystic Jade Staff!” “You lost it fair and square in the gamble, Grand Elder. I can’t help it if your so-called Profound Scrying Eyes couldn’t see through my cups.” “What cups!? Those were the Divine Temple Bells of the Mahayana Temple!” “And?” “Even the Immortal Monarch himself can’t see through them, you thief!” *** “What do you mean you won’t reimburse me for the Flying Sword Insurance I took?” “The terms and conditions clearly state that there will be no reimbursement within the first year of taking out the policy.” “You never said that!” “And you never read the fine print in the contract, Patriarch.” “The fine print that was written with illusory ink!? You bastard!” *** “How did my small loan of 1,000 Immortal Stones turn into a debt of 100,000 Immortal Stones? You loan shark!” “That’s just the power of compounding, my friend.” “You call that compounding? I took the loan last week, you scammer! And I’m not your friend, I’m the goddamn Emperor!” *** “How are you not dead? I saw your corpse with my own eyes!” “My death was greatly exaggerated, Senior Sister.” “You didn’t even have a head!” “Like I said, exaggerated.” *** In the vast world of cultivation, where honor and integrity reign supreme, one man dares to defy the heavens—not with sword or spell, but with deception and trickery. Once a lowly street urchin, Han Yu quickly realized that cultivation required three things: talent, resources, and powerful backers. He had none of those. What he did have, however, was a sharp tongue, quick hands, and a complete lack of shame. From gambling dens to immortal auctions, from conning sect elders to running an interdimensional insurance scam, Han Yu’s reputation spreads across the cultivation world like an unstoppable plague. No treasure is too sacred, no contract too ironclad, and no oath too unbreakable for him to twist to his advantage. Even the mighty Immortal Clans dare not underestimate him—after all, the last sect that tried ended up legally belonging to him. With a growing list of enemies, a debt larger than some celestial empires, and a skillset that consists entirely of loopholes, misdirection, and sheer audacity, Han Yu’s journey to the peak of immortality is anything but conventional. Will he be hunted down by every major power in the realm? Will he accidentally scam his way into becoming an Immortal Emperor? Or will he outwit even fate itself and make the heavens owe him a favor? One thing is certain—when Han Yu is involved, nothing is ever fair, but the house always wins. ------- P.S: This book is set in the universe of Walker of the Words and is in the same time period.

Deadly Postman 2
Deadly Postman 2 was a game released in 2003. It was an absurd black open game where the player played as a postman. The game's content contained bloody and violent scenes. Since its release, it had received many objections and boycotts, but it also attracted many players because of its controversy. Some players were able to examine the game's practical significance and see it as a work that mocked the real world, while others felt the double torture of physical and psychological, because the violent content broke the rules of the game and challenged people's moral bottom line. The game had a unique storyline, exciting game elements, and impressive scenes. It had a well-built storyline, and each task was like a puzzle to solve a puzzle. The operation was simple and easy to master, and even novices could quickly master the game. The picture quality was clear and smooth, and the details were handled in place. The game's features included a variety of mission settings, which gradually expanded from traditional mail delivery, a high degree of freedom, and a rich item system. There was an official Chinese version of the game and a mobile version in Chinese. It was a fun and exciting action shooting adventure mobile game called Payback 2. It used a first-person perspective and combined role-playing, action shooting, racing, and many other playstyles. The gameplay was similar to the open world. The players could experience the game life that was no different from reality. There were a large number of characters in the game that could interact with each other. The story was rich. The main story had 50 random events. The players could also choose to not plan their own gameplay according to the story, such as driving tanks, destroying streets and buildings with cars, etc. The game was created with a simulation theme, similar to GTA gameplay, and was built with a 3D engine. The mobile terminal could freely switch between third-person perspective and God's perspective. There were nine different modes, and players could play as people living in chaotic cities, accept missions, or do whatever they wanted. They could drive a variety of vehicles, and they also added shooting gameplay. There were seven different urban areas to choose from, and they could customize events. It received overwhelming praise on Steam, but it was also banned in many countries and regions around the world because the game's later stages basically changed the way to kill people, which was politically incorrect. In addition, the game also came with a Chinese voice. "The Island of Life" is also a wonderful novel. Everyone is welcome to read it!

The Mysterious Postman
I recommend "Unlimited Postman". The author looks at her through the water. This was a mystery novel. The story began with a mysterious package and stamps, and then he became a postman and embarked on a journey of death. The postman may die, but the stamp lives on. The new book was almost finished. The protagonist, Zhao Ke, was a vengeful man who fought hard for the renovation. The female lead, Ji Wusui, was half zombie and half immortal, and very domineering. The supporting roles were also very interesting. For example, Qi Liang was not changed by others, and Lu Hao became a crossdresser. The author's "Horror Stamps" had been banned before. This book had a similar style, dark style, and a cannibalistic plot (but now the main character's cooking was just a little scary). The protagonist had a split personality, cold blooded, smart, and cunning. The world was interesting, and the plot was novel. The supporting characters had different personalities. The writing style was exquisite and the plot was compact. It was a grain-grade dark text, suitable for people with strong psychological endurance. Those who liked the dark style could read it. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Mr. Postman
Mr. Postman was a novel written by Mr. Shi Tuo during the Anti-Japanese War in the 1940s. In terms of character image, Mr. Postman served as a postman and ticket seller in the small town. He was old, dizzy, and hunched. His work was repetitive and he had a lot of spare time. In his spare time, he would bury himself in the case and cut patterns. He was familiar with the lives of the people around him, and most of the letters he sent were letters from students asking their parents for living expenses. In terms of the plot, Mr. Postman sorted out the letters every day and delivered them from door to door. In the article, there were various encounters in the process of sending letters, such as encountering different identities of the recipient. In terms of theme and writing style, the narrative tone of the novel was flat and the story was not strong. It showed the peaceful and tranquil life in the countryside. The postman talked warmly with his neighbors, reflecting a strong local complex and a sense of concern for the common people. At that time, the society was full of sorrow, and the warm words in the article were comforting to the people. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

The Postman of Heaven
Translated from the novel " The Postman of Heaven ". This was just a matter related to the translation of the novel," The Postman of Heaven." There was no plot or anything else. It was as simple as that. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

What makes the 'funny harry and death comic' so amusing?
The comic is likely amusing because of the creative and offbeat plot. Maybe the characters' expressions or dialogues are hilarious, or there's some sort of parody element that makes it stand out.

Tell me a really amusing mafia game death story.
A really funny story happened when the mafia was trying to be sneaky. They chose their target, but right at the moment of the 'kill', one of the mafia members tripped over a chair. This caused a big commotion and the whole room saw what was about to happen. The targeted player was able to escape that round, and the clumsy mafia member became the butt of all jokes. It was a really unique and humorous death - averted story within the mafia game.

The protagonist becomes a postman
I recommend the novel " Infinite Postman." The protagonist of this novel was a postman who could often die and come back to life. He delivered messages in the spirit world and received the stamps. This book had a unique worldview, the protagonist had a distinct personality, and the story was fascinating. I hope you will like this book.
