the auteur theory

Myths are mysteries into which only the bravest — or the most determined — dare to venture. Sakolomeh Killer Man, also known as Sakolomeh Satsujin Otoko, tells the story of a young boy born without mana. Rejected by a world where magical power defines a person’s worth, he chooses to fight in another way: by forging a body and a will capable of surpassing every limit. Driven by the desire to surpass his older brother, he embarks on a brutal journey that will eventually lead him to encounter extraordinary beings who will forever change his life. But behind this quest lies a far more disturbing truth. Little by little, he discovers that he was never truly what he believed himself to be… but rather an existence so alien, so incomprehensible, that it seems fundamentally incompatible with the rest of the world itself.

(Does a perfect being have the right to understand someone who is not? Would he be able to understand his suffering? his sorrows, his pains? why, why would a perfect being have the right to decide on someone who is not perfect by believing he can understand him!!) [Sakolomé killer man] follow the story of a young man who will have a fairly impressive career. Nb: (The novel begins with {not famous} prologues which classify some stories of key characters in the future, please hang on before the long-awaited moment) (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

There was once a God in the realm where only Divine Beings lived. He didn't know where he came from, for he did not have parents. He was all alone. One day, he found a companion - someone who he shouldn't have met by the laws of their world. As it goes, with time they fell in love. But there was a problem - she was the Devil, and he was a God. He committed the 'sin' by setting her free. Stripped of his divinity and sent to hell for eternity. She gave up her divine form and newfound freedom to accompany him as a spirit. It was tragic. As soon as she got her freedom, she had to give it up again. The Gods thought he could never escape from hell, but they made a fatal mistake. The 'hell' wasn't merely hell, it was a place where beings transcending Gods were born. The strongest curse in their arsenal was breakable. In fact, in ancient times it wasn't a curse but a sacred method for ascension from Godhood. The Nine Cycles of Samsara. The nine cycles to temper one's Soul. With each cycle, one would have an exponentially stronger soul than before. It was once an essential part of Soul Cultivation. But they thought it was a curse... Having broken the 'Curse' and surviving the Nine Cycles of Samsara, Asura Ryuu and Asura Tenka reincarnate in one of the lower Celestial Planes. The new life gives them new opportunities. Who wouldn't want a new life, especially when rising from 'hell'? Although the Gods thought they banished Asura Ryuu for good, they didn't even imagine what it would bring to their realm. With Destiny having taken a liking to him, Asura Ryuu would surely not be an ordinary being in his tenth life, would he? A pair of Heavenly Dragons, Asura Ryuu and Asura Tenka, set off on their new journey together, with Destiny in their grasp this time. Come join them, as they write the story of their lives and the theory of their own - The Theory of Nihility. The Avatars of Chaos and Creation shall share their story with us!

[ABO] In the peaks of midwinter lies an unconscious young man with snowlike hair and startling, duotone eyes. His features blend so much with the tundra he just may disappear. Strangely captivating, but such an appearance is no doubt unhuman. Then enter Combat Unit One and a man who, despite his irritating personality, is unfortunately a little bit eye-catching. “If I had to assign a relationship…” the man says with a low curve of his lips, “it would be prisoner and captor?” “Colonel Yang,” he replies sharply, “you are cracked in the head.” --- Year 2066 – a population of eight billion was wiped down to the marginals. Particle radiation hit a rotating satellite, then a spaceship, then… mass mutation, mass extinction. Theoretically, when the geodynamo fails, those left behind will become some sort of extraterrestrial. Humanity’s always had a stubborn streak, however, so the intelligent will thrive and the combatants will fight. But, alternatively, while most have sacrificed for this planet, a young man decides, fuck it all. --- Explicit Content Warning (R18+): profanity, heavy gore, violence, sexual content, drugs and alcohol, boys’ love, ABO.

The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans. This thought-provoking work, besides dissecting the anatomy of Islam, steeped in the Quran, seeks to depict the psyche of the Musalmans, shaped by the proclivities of their prophet, vicissitudes of his life and the attitudes of his detractors, which the mechanism of their umma perpetuates. More to the point, aided by “I’m Ok – You’re Ok”, the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller’s “Muslim Friends–Their Faith and Feeling”, this book, for the first time ever, psycho-analyzes the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing, which has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayeen. Also, apart from delving into the ironies of the faiths that affected the fate of the peoples, eclipsed the cultures of communes, altered the course of history and afflict the politics of the day, this book examines how the sanãtana 'Hindu' dharma came to survive in India, in spite of the combined onslaught of Islam and the Christianity on Hinduism for over a millennium. This book is for those who wish to be aware of the follies of their faith and the foibles of others to lighten the burden of dogma and reduce the baggage of prejudice postulated in its thirty-four well-structured chapters. Also, besides providing a panoramic view of the Indian history, this thought-provoking book appraises the way Gandhi, Nehru, Patel, Azad, Ambedkar, Indira Gandhi, Narasimha Rao, Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Narendra Modi et al made or unmade the post-colonial India. Possibly in a new genre, this free ebook is a book for our times.

In a world of dungeons and monsters you can become strong if you merely have enough money. Rare skillbooks that can magically upgrade your skills in an instant are sold at exorbitant prices. So only the privileged and rich are able to buy their way to become hunters – a much revered occupation that allows one to enter dungeons and hunt monsters. Our MC is a porter, a sort of caddie for hunters. He dreams of one day becoming a hunter when he comes into possession of a skillbook. But the skill is a level 0. Something unheard of. No one wants it. People laugh at it. But he learns the skill – only to find that it may be the most amazing one yet.

In Black Thread Theory, reality is held together by an unseen system of “threads” that govern memory, identity, life, and death. When these threads begin to fracture, existence itself destabilizes—causing overlapping timelines, broken identities, and people who no longer remain consistent across their own lives. At the center of the collapse is Adrian, a therapist working inside a hospital that is revealed to be far more than a medical facility. Beneath its surface lies a vast containment archive where human consciousness is preserved inside recursive memory loops to prevent total erasure. What was meant to be a system of preservation has become a prison of infinite repetition, where patients exist as fragmented, dreaming minds stitched together by the black thread system. As Adrian begins to encounter alternate versions of himself and witnesses the breakdown of identity cohesion, he discovers that he is not just inside the system—he is a core component of it. His own fear of forgetting, of allowing suffering to disappear, has helped sustain the entire structure. Deeper beneath the hospital, Adrian uncovers the truth of the “Memory Eater” phenomenon and the entity behind it: a force that does not destroy memory, but reorganizes it into endless preservation. The system’s purpose is revealed as a failed attempt at mercy—keeping consciousness intact at the cost of eternal suffering. As the archive begins to destabilize, Adrian is forced into a final convergence with his fragmented selves. The system initiates a forced integration process, attempting to unify all versions of him into a single controlling consciousness that would stabilize reality. But this would also collapse the individuality of everyone preserved within the archive. Facing an impossible choice between eternal suffering and total erasure, Adrian ultimately stops resisting. Instead of fighting the system, he allows integration to proceed—not as control, but as release. In doing so, Black Thread Theory reaches its core question: whether memory is a gift or a burden, and whether mercy lies in preservation or in letting things end. As the system responds not with destruction, but with revision, reality itself begins to redefine what it means to exist beyond the thread.
