Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind nicht so gruselig!

[Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind wirklich nicht so gruselig!] Ich hasse Horror. Von den huschenden Geräuschen von Schritten, die hinter mir herjagen, bis zu den leisen, aber beunruhigend kalten Flüstern, die sich um meine Ohren winden... All das. Ich hasse es. So sehr, dass ich anfange zu kotzen, wenn ich eine bestimmte Schwelle erreiche. Und trotzdem bin ich ein Horror-Spieleentwickler. Ein miserabler noch dazu. Also habe ich beschlossen, aufzuhören, angesichts meiner mangelnden Fähigkeiten. Und doch... [Glückwunsch, Sie wurden für das Horror-Spielentwicklungssystem ausgewählt!] Nein, ich will es nicht. Lass mich aufhören. ※ Hinweis: Ihre Welt könnte einige Veränderungen erfahren. Aber keine Sorge! Es ist Teil des Spiels! *** Dies ist eine Geschichte über einen Spieleentwickler, der Horror hasst, aber keine andere Wahl hat, als Spiele zu entwickeln, die gruselig genug sind, um Menschen zu traumatisieren. Sie wollen mich verfluchen, weil ich Sie dazu gebracht habe, sich in die Hose zu machen? Wenn das der Fall ist, wen verfluche ich dann? *** Eine von SCP inspirierte Geschichte mit ihrer eigenen Wendung!

Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!

She is the true daughter of a prestigious family in the Federation, who was lost outside and grew up in a garbage heap, and is also a waste with only F-level spiritual power. Her parents' abandonment and favoritism, the exclusion and framing by her green tea fake daughter sister, the cultivation sect in crisis. She can only regain her cultivation and turn the tide by participating in the Federation Planet's 'God Creation Game'! "No way? Someone with only F-level spiritual power can also enter the 'God Creation Game'?" "Maybe just to make up the numbers." "With only 3 attack points, even a gust of wind can kill her, right?" Josh, the sickly waste not favored by everyone, casually summoned a Divine-level Monster in the dimension. Just when everyone thought she was going to kill all sides, she smiled slightly: "Open for fortune-telling, divining the location, weaknesses, and treasures of monsters, looking at dimension feng shui, monster physiognomy, one divination for 3000 points, scan the code to pay, thank you!" Barrage: "What's wrong! 3000 points, what idiot would go there! She's a fraud!" Contestant: "Me me me! I want a reading, I want a reading!" "I was here first!" "Don't cut in line!" Barrage: "......" Are these the star contestants they've fostered with points?

Well, a major theme is trauma. The psychological and physical trauma that war inflicts on individuals is a key aspect. It can be shown through things like PTSD - like symptoms in characters. Isolation is another theme. Soldiers may feel isolated from their normal lives, their families, and this can create a sense of horror. Also, the theme of powerlessness. In war, soldiers are often at the mercy of the situation, and this powerlessness is a source of horror, as seen in stories where soldiers are caught in hopeless situations.

One well - known wartime horror short story is 'The Things They Carried' by Tim O'Brien. It delves into the psychological horrors that soldiers face during the Vietnam War. Another is 'The Signal - Man' by Charles Dickens, which has elements of horror set during the Industrial Revolution but also touches on themes relevant to wartime, like the dread of the unknown and impending doom. And 'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge' by Ambrose Bierce is a great example too, showing the horror and confusion of a man about to be executed during the Civil War.

2024-11-20 03:43
Well, bedtime stories are typically told to children at the end of the day. They are full of imagination, like stories of magical lands far away. The language is gentle and the plots are not too complex. In contrast, wartime stories can be very intense. They might describe battles, the fear of soldiers, and the destruction that war brings. For example, a bedtime story could be about a little bunny finding its way home, while a wartime story could be about the D - Day invasion and the brave soldiers who fought there.

New Arrivals

The Emperor's black moonlight has returned.

On the day that Emperor Gong Liquan of the Three Pure Regions ascended to the throne, he saw in the mirror of the future that Spirit Emperor Shaohao was about to destroy the world. He had wanted to descend to the mortal world to stop Shaohao from reincarnating, but he had caused her to die with a monstrous resentment, and then the soul fire returned to the Spirit Venerable's body. Emperor Gongli joined forces with the gods to form a killing array. They gouged out the heart of Shaohao's true body, cut off her head, and removed her wings and scales. All the gods thought that the future had been reversed, and even Shaohao felt that his soul would return to nothingness. However, she opened her eyes again and found that she had become a harmless little crow. In this life, she could only try to cultivate and kill her way back to the 33rd Layer of Heaven. She wanted the Three Pure Ones to have no True Gods and all the immortals to fall. And picking up her little immortal at Lishui Creek seemed to be an unexpected and also a part of her fate. The God of Creation had created her, a weapon that rebelled against all laws, and had long set the outcome of her death. Only this person called Wen Jingchan had tried everything to keep her alive. ------ Heart-sealing Lock, Love, Irascible Demon x Emotions Stable, Gentle, Little Immortal (I haven't decided whether to be or he yet. I'll tell you in the introduction after I save the manuscript.)
