Building a Viking Empire with Modern Industry

In an age of blood, steel, and freezing spray, a Viking’s worth is measured by the swing of his axe. They are raiders. They are conquerors. They are the terror of the North. Ragnar, the eighteen-year-old bastard son of a starving chieftain, is none of these things. Just a month ago, he was a Senior Naval Architect in Seattle, designing high-efficiency cargo vessels. Now, he stands on a frozen fjord in 865 AD, facing a suicide mission to England that threatens to wipe out his village. Mocked for his refusal to raid and his obsession with "wizard words" like logistics and drag coefficients, Ragnar is dismissed as a coward. But they are all wrong. Where they see a longship, he sees a displacement curve waiting to be optimized. Where they see a storm, he sees wind energy waiting to be harnessed. They say his methods are madness. Soon, they will realize that while they are playing at war, he is engineering an empire. -------- Disclaimer: *Kingdom Building & Tech-Uplift: MC uses modern engineering to revolutionize the Viking Age. *Weak-to-Strong: Starts as a despised bastard, progresses to a wealthy tycoon/warlord. *High Detail: Detailed descriptions of ship-building and primitive industrialization.

Even in the most obscure major, she aims to embody the most thrilling persona, create the most potent magic potions, and make the most money! Qian Qi: "Ladies and gentlemen, take a look! A one-second Blood Stopping Magic Potion, only 998! Even King Yan would turn a blind eye when he sees you!" Crowd: "Stopping blood in one second? Are you boasting? Can a study laggard like you develop such a potion?" Qian Qi: "Of course! I personally slashed the principal, and even he said it works well!" Principal: "Is this the reason you slashed me?" Crowd: "????" Initially, Qian Qi only wanted to make some money with magic potions by farming. Unexpectedly, she accidentally turned the obscure and discriminated Magic Plant Department into the hottest major in the university. The teachers and students of the Magic Plant Department were tearfully grateful and hoped she would lead Magic Plant Study to greater heights. But then they discovered... We agreed to farm together, so why did you secretly go to tame beasts?! Qian Qi: "Oh, it's because the faculty and students of the Beast Taming Department were too enthusiastic." Beast Taming Department Dean: "Qian Qi is the only genius Beast Master who can lead Beast Masters into a new era!" Magic Plant Department Dean: "Nonsense! Qian Qi is clearly the first Magic Potion Master, and her magic potions will make history!" Qian Qi: "Stop arguing! Adults don't do multiple-choice questions. You can all have me~" All students of Awakener University know not to mess with Qian Qi without reason. This person is both poor and miserly, thick-skinned and shameless. If you're not careful, she will swindle all the money off you. Qian Qi: "That's a rumor! I'm a good person! They're all willing!"

Caring for Mr. Mutant

[COMPLETED] How can a Mutant and a Mutant Caretaker fight for their love, if science is their greatest enemy? ------------------------ Year 2023: Random DNA mutations suddenly occurred around the world. These mutations caused newborn babies to acquire animal traits, and no one knows why or where they originated. Year 2033: When funds, advanced technology, and a capable workforce became available to study these mutants, a national team of scientists was formed, called the "DNA Mutation Cadre" or "D.M. Cadre". They were given modern, state-of-the-art laboratories complete with equipment and isolation rooms. Here, mutants were studied and monitored in exchange for a large sum of money and government assistance. Year 2048: In the busy city of Makylee, a 25-year-old part-timer, Lia Brentvale, got fired from her two part-time jobs in just one unlucky day. Since her parents aren’t around, she’s the breadwinner of her family, providing for her two college brothers. She applied as a Mutant Caretaker in the D.M. Cadre Research Facility and after passing their exam, she was assigned to the mysterious and aloof vulture mutant. But as she got to know him, she also learned more about D.M. Cadre. Together with her hacker friend and their batchmates, they tried to uncover the deep secrets that lie within the research facility. ------------------------ PREVIEW: Aesop had always felt that being a mutant is a curse. But upon meeting Lia, he started accepting himself. Lia was always pointing out his strong points. She was always encouraging him to enhance his skills and discover his talents. She always tells him not to think of himself as a test subject just like how the scientists treat him. She reassured him that even though he's a mutant, he's not less than a person, so he shouldn't look down on himself. It was her uplifting words and her mere existence that gave color to his monochrome life. "Lia… I love you," Aesop uttered as his golden eyes stared through her deep blue eyes. "Ae, I… I love you, too," Lia then wrapped her arms around Aesop's neck, drawing in close to him. Aesop's hands slid down to Lia's lower back, and he embraced her. Their heartbeats quicken as their lips graze against each other. Lia thought it would be just a simple kiss, just like they had always done after their very first kiss, but she was wrong. Aesop's right hand suddenly caressed her back, then he placed it at the back of her head, pulling her to him with a little force. The vulture mutant's majestic wings enveloped them, and it was as if he was owning her. Aesop's wet tongue slid into her mouth, and it surprised her. She tried to resist, but with his hand at the back of her head, she couldn't get away from him. Eventually, she gave in to that passionate kiss... NOTE: Not a superhero story, but tackled more of science ethics and social issues ------------------------ UPDATE: Added CFMM Special - The Afterstory chapters after the Finale.

One Last Merchant

Magic is not real. Monster that defy logics should not exist. Yet, I cannot refute what is before my very eyes. What my mangled body has told me through painful experiences. What my dying mind has comprehended with my last willpower. The world that I have once lived in changed abruptly one day, and the new era dawned for the human race. It is done by the hands of those who are known as Rulers. They call it mercy, but I know it is a game to them. If they truly wish to help the human race, then there surely a better way than sacrificing billions to uplift the selected few. The Zoning Events was set in stone, and the dimensional barrier collapses, allowing the monsters that we could never hope to defeat with our current technology to enter our universe. Allowing horrifying worlds and landscapes to merge with our own. And through blood, sweat, and fear, we understand that our science cannot truly surpass the natural law of the universe. Only through magic, the human race might survive. Only through magic, a better future can be reached. Everything has its price, and no price is too great for the second chance. This is the story of the last Merchant. One Last Merchant. *** Disclaimer: This story contains graphical sex scenes and depictions of torture! Please enjoy!

Goblin Foundry

Every empire in the Infinite Realms of Astra agrees on one thing: goblins don't count. Matthew woke up as one anyway a clay given life imagined into existence by a few unique goblins running on stubborn collective belief power at the edge of mapped space. Carrying Earth knowledge, a civilization-building system, and the slowly forming suspicion that "doesn't count" is the most dangerous thing you can be called before you start counting. The goblins don't have armies. They don't have territory. What they have is a power system that runs on population, compounds over time, and builds things no other species in Astra has the biology to replicate. Give them enough people and enough time and the question stops being whether they matter. It becomes whether anyone can stop them. Nobody's asking that question yet. They will. ---------------- What to Expect - Non-Human Main Character - Kingdom Building - Technological Uplift - Crafting and Industry Development - Unique Power System - Exploration and Discovery - Long-Term Character Growth - Intelligent Worldbuilding - Large Universe What You Won't Find - Harem - Young Master Face-Slapping - Instant Overpowered Protagonist
