Mythology Rebooted

At dawn. The light of dawn lingered, hesitant to arrive, while the remnants of the setting sun had long faded into darkness. Within the city shrouded in thin mist, the hidden churches in the shadows, veins clinging to the cracks in walls, the gnawing sounds echoing from the sewers, and the murmuring shadows...

Indian Mythology: the Heavenly Emperor is not working today

In Indian mythology, the Three Aspects Deity suppressed the current age. Many Immortals cursed all the gods. Asuras, after millennia of arduous cultivation, would always attack the Heavenly Realm and beat up the Heavenly Emperor upon receiving a boon. "Arduous cultivation, receiving boons, beating up the Heavenly Emperor, why is Indian mythology always like this? I'm the one who gets beaten and suffers; I quit!" Indra, who had reincarnated as the Heavenly Emperor, was furious. And so... "Whoever loves being the Heavenly Emperor, be my guest; I'm not going to work!" Indra said. "Hey, hey, hey, the script isn't supposed to go like this," the Destroyer God Shiva said, full of question marks. "You've performed great meritorious deeds in the past. This position of the Heavenly Emperor is rightfully yours. If not, there will be chaos in the world!" the Protector God Vishnu said anxiously. "No, Heavenly Emperor, I'll give you a boon. Go quickly and beat up the Asura!" the Creator God Brahma spoke thus.

Great new take on Greek Mythology combined with the reincarnation trope. This story combines the best of both Mythology and Reincarnation without seeming forced or going off the rails.

She's a little wild

Even after so many years, Lu Zhixia still remembered it clearly. How did that aloof flower walk into her heart step by step and occupy her heart? "Shen Yuan." Lu Zhixia." "Long time no see." In Shen Yuan's eyes, a certain hot-tempered big child was not as unbearable as rumors said. Just like the saying, one should never judge a book by its cover. Shen Yuan felt that Lu Zhixia was the proof of this statement. She had seen Lu Zhixia running around for her mother. She had seen Lu Zhixia wandering aimlessly in the rain like a lost child. Perhaps it was at this moment, or perhaps it was earlier, but Shen Yuan had subconsciously placed this person in her heart.
