the snowball effect

Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER] *original cover by me

Discord server: https://discord.gg/8KFuQF5yc *** Ren dies without warning… and wakes up inside a novel he once read. Not as the hero. Not even as a side character. But as Kael Ardyn, a useless, disgraced noble destined to be disowned, humiliated, and eventually reduced to a beggar crawling in the dirt. A character so insignificant… that even his death was forgotten. But this time, the story won’t go the same way. Because Kael awakens something no one else has, a System that rewards entertainment. Every shocking action, every unexpected twist, every moment that captures attention… earns him power. And beyond the world he now lives in, higher beings are watching. To them, his life is nothing but a show, a game, a story meant to entertain. So Kael makes a choice. If his life is going to be a spectacle, then he will become the most unpredictable, most dangerous, most entertaining existence in the entire story. At Astral Academy, where geniuses, nobles, and monsters gather, Kael will rewrite his fate. He will break the plot. Outplay the protagonists. And turn every destined tragedy into his stepping stone. Because in a world where death is scripted… He will become the one who controls the narrative. **** Bonus Chapter Goals 250 Golden Tickets → +5 Extra Chapters Dragon Gift → +1 Bonus Chapter Castle Gift → +3 Bonus Chapters Tonight You get to choose one side character to suffer a permanent consequence.

Here's a story that perfectly confirms Murphy's Law: Aurora: Remus, I just heard from those guys that there is a new teacher who is going to teach us Potions, supposedly Snape. Do you know him? I looked like they were desperate. Lupin: (A thousand words in the wind) Here's a story of Hufflepuff and Slytherin fighting wits and bravery all the way to the face: She pondered for a long time, and finally decided to write a letter for help: What to do if the fan article of the teacher is seen by the teacher himself, online, etc., is quite urgent.

"Reincarnation is a mysterious and wonderful thing, isn´t it?" The old professor took a sip from his tea. Looking at his colleague in the opposite seat. "Just imagine the possibilities!" He spread his arms wide to indicate all the possibilities. "I am." His colleague answered sourly. "Let us assume that there is the thing called reincarnation. Then it must be a blessing for us not to remember our past lives." "Why do you say that? Just imagine If I had all the knowledge of my previous life or lives wouldn´t I be almost all-knowing?" The man smiled imagining having all the knowledge he couldn´t acquire in his lifetime. The other man just shook his head "You, my friend are far too greedy. Just imagining what would happen to a person remembering his past lives fills me with dread and pity. We are lucky not to remember anything if reincarnation is real. Thank God, that this does not happen." Hello there! Writer here. That one above is actually not part of the story, but when I thought about what the story is about that just pooped into my head. It is what this story is going for. Please give me a notice if that´s not how I was supposed to do it.

# highmartialartsworld The Heaven-Defying Fate Scripture allowed its user to transform the bad side effect of a technique into something beneficial. It could alter its user’s fate and aid them in reaching the pinnacle of martial arts. Since the protagonist acquired the Heaven-Defying Fate Scripture, his body could now absorb side effects. [Practicing the Seven Stigmata Fist Technique harms your heart, liver, lungs, spleen, kidney, spirit and physical body. This side effect is now reversed. When the user practices this fist technique, his body will be revitalized instead.] As such, he fell in love with the Seven Stigmata Fist Technique, the Virgin Martial Arts, the Star Sucking Skill, the Explosion Pill, the Soul Splitting Pill and everything that could potentially kill him. He activated the Dissection of Heavens and Demons during the day. At night, he devoted himself to cultivating the Sunflower Scripture. Others improved their cultivation through the aid of resources; he improved his cultivation through self-mutilation.

Cause and effect govern everything—history, power, fate itself. Now, that law sits in the hands of an ordinary man. Given a book that turns causes into reality and consequences into strength, Mo Chen begins to test how far a mortal can go when the rules of the world no longer ignore him. Small changes first. Subtle ripples. Then the question becomes inevitable: What happens when cause and effect start bending around him? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer This is a translated and localized version of an original work by another author.

He asked to leave. They beat him to death for it. Now he's back — with a system that lets him swallow every poison, curse, and forbidden technique meant to kill him and hand the consequences (side effect) to the men who deserve them, and neither the villain nor the hero who buried him has any idea what's coming. — Su Heng, beaten to death for the crime of asking to leave, remembers something no one else in this world could ever know. He read this story before. On Earth, in another life, he read this exact cultivation novel to its end — and he knows exactly what kind of character he is. A background servant. Two lines of text. Beaten to death in chapter one and forgotten by everyone, including the villain who owns him and the hero who never looked at him twice. He was supposed to stay dead. [Ding! Side Effect Transfer System Activated] Every pill too dangerous to swallow. Every technique too cursed to practice. Every poison, every forbidden art, every price no sane cultivator would ever pay — Su Heng takes the benefit, and someone else takes the cost. Beaten half to death by guards for sport? The wounds land on the men who swung the fists. Fed a "test" poison strong enough to kill a full cultivator? He drinks it like water — and the man who poured it chokes instead. Junk-tier pills nobody dares touch, sold for pennies because every past buyer died screaming? Su Heng buys them by the jar. The sect calls him mad. A beggar courting death. They don't know every disaster he swallows is a debt someone else is about to pay in full. Duan Lie, the villain who owns his contract, sees a broken toy too useful to throw away — and starts sharpening it for his own war. Jiang Chen, the Heaven-Chosen hero destined to save the world, sees a servant with an insolent face and doesn't bother learning his name. Neither of them knows the servant they dismiss has already read the ending. Neither of them knows he's the reason their whole war is about to burn down around them — long before anyone else even notices the fire's been lit. That wasn't the only secret buried beneath this sect. Something older than either clan's rivalry sleeps under the mountain, and every drop of blood their war spills is quietly feeding the crack in its seal. Su Heng is the only one who's already read how this ends. He intends to make sure it ends differently — starting with the two men who thought a dead servant would stay quiet.

"I'm finally free!" Kiera, who was a Modern Rapunzel, finally became independent and out of her comfort zone! However, the day before her housewarming party as a celebration of her freedom, she got into an accident... or was it? "Is fate playing tricks on me? I don't mind dying but can't I at least die after I experience my first own party instead of my funeral?!" Seeing her lifeless body surrounded by her blood, she can't help but feel remorse. Feeling helpless, she followed the light shined next to her thinking it was the way to the underworld. ...she was wrong. "I think I got the wrong turn..."
