Berbagai jenis bunga memiliki filosofinya sendiri. Mereka sering kali dijadikan sebagai lambang cinta, kasih sayang, kesedihan dan lainnya karena menyimpan berbagai pesan bermakna yang mendalam. Kehidupan manusia sama halnya dengan bunga, mengalami masa bahagia saat tumbuh dan berkembang, namun akan kembali ke tanah saat sudah tiba waktunya. Banyak hal yang datang dan pergi begitu saja tanpa disangka-sangka ketika menjalani kehidupan yang tak seindah bunga ini, tak jauh berbeda dengan kehidupan Kaori dan Misaki. Banyak hal yang harus dilewati oleh kakak beradik itu, mulai dari hidup tanpa orang tua, bekerja keras demi memenuhi kebutuhan sehari-hari hingga terlibat di dalam pekerjaan yang terlarang. Kaori terpaksa bekerja di sebuah klub malam. Hingga suatu malam, Kaori bertemu Ryuu, seorang pria muda dan kaya raya yang terpikat oleh kecantikannya. Ryuu jatuh cinta dan berniat "membeli" Kaori dari dunia malam untuk menjadikannya istri. Tapi Kaori tahu, pernikahan itu bukanlah cinta, melainkan kepemilikan. Ia menolak, meski tawaran uang yang diberikan sangat besar. Namun dia sadar bahwa biaya hidupnya terus menekan, Kaori berada diambang keputusasaan. Dalam keputusan paling gelap yang pernah dia ambil, Kaori menawarkan sesuatu yang lebih berharga dari harga dirinya sendiri, adiknya.

About the real growth of a Chinese soldier

Ivy Chamberlain is a simple high school student who just so happens to be a telepath. Knowing everyone's thoughts is pretty boring...so what would happen if she meets a boy she can't read at all? *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

Transmigration. What if the cause is not a bus running you over, nor you falling into a pond, but you get five years to prepare, fully aware of what you’re getting into? Well, at least you think you know what you’re getting into... This is the situation Mike, a professional MMA fighter, finds himself in. Given the opportunity to leave behind his life on Earth and enter a world of swords and magic, he prepares to face the challenge. In a world of discrimination, injustice, and social class inequality, Mike demonstrates how far Earth has come in developing its martial arts and how much a simple low-kick can hurt. You’re stronger? Well, first, you will have to land a hit. You’re faster? Does it really matter if your movement is so wasteful? You know incredible techniques? Are they better than the legendary one-two combo, perfected by legends through thousands of years? You have more money? That indeed seems to be a problem. You have companions? It’s not like I’m lonely... I don’t need anyone… You know magic? Ok, now it’s just getting unfair. Mike will have to learn to adapt, improve and find his path in a world that is ruthless beyond compare. --------------------------------------------------------- The first five chapters can be a little slow and serve more as a prologue. If you find yourself bored or generally dislike "training arcs," just skip to the sixth chapter when Mike's life in the new world officially begins. In general, there will be a lot of training, as I love training sequences like in the 36th Chamber of the Shaolin. There will also be close to no romance, and while this is not a pet taming novel, there will be companions. I just enjoy writing as a hobby and hope I can share that with you. =) Link to full cover: https://imgur.com/a/YrzVqNg

Sometimes I can't say the words I really want to say. So instead, I had those words fall into the paper. This is a collection of poems. They represent the sound of my otherwise silent words, thoughts, and heart. I hope you enjoy.

Everyone has a desire, something that drives them, pilots them from day to day, some as magnificent as a star and some as terrifying and cold as an endless void. Desire, the cradle of humanity, their power but also their curse. This story begins with a powerless boy named Shry with an unfathomable fate in a world dependent on magical abilities. After a certain tragic occurrence called the Slette, a natural disaster that can occur at any moment and anywhere with the potential to wipe out whole continents. The powerless boy was left devastated with uncontrollable grief boiling within him. But then, a sudden spark of hope appeared before his eyes, an unbelievable phenomenon occurring at the palm of his hands: time reversal, revitalizing the dead batteries in his mechanical gauntlet. It was then, having witnessed the impossible happen right before his eyes, that a desire blazed, bright and shining like a beacon of hope, arose within him and set him off on a journey in search of the power to travel back in time.

Sophie Wexler transmigrated into a novel about The Galaxy, becoming the vicious, F-rank Healer-class cannon fodder. The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy. Sophie was content, thinking, "This time, I must have finally escaped the original owner's fate, right?" But what do you know, the man I've been doting on and supporting is actually the Imperial Marshal?! --- One day, Yancey Forrest came home to find that the boisterous person who was always claiming to be good to him was gone. His eyes darkened. Provoke me and then think you can leave? After catching her, Yancey traced his fingertips along Sophie's neck, smiling gently. "Why run?" Sophie trembled. "You... you're the Imperial Marshal?" His identity exposed, Yancey Forrest took her hand and slowly placed it on his own neck ring. "You know I won't kill you, don't you?"
