Medical Genius

At twenty-five, Esteban Rodriguez is dying from an undiagnosed illness—slowly, painfully, and without answers. What he doesn’t expect is for his wife to grow tired of waiting. Miranda once promised to stay by his side through sickness and health. Now she’s counting the cost. When the medical bills drain their savings and Esteban loses the ability to work, Miranda finally snaps—telling him, for the first time, that his life is a burden she can no longer carry. But the breaking point comes on a crowded city bus, when Esteban spots a woman who looks exactly like his wife walking into a luxury hotel. During work hours. Dressed to impress. Laughing with someone who isn’t him. Desperate for answers, he follows her inside… and what he discovers behind those hotel doors shatters more than just his heart. Sometimes, the worst part of dying isn’t the illness. It’s realizing the person you love has already buried you. A raw, emotional story of betrayal, heartbreak, and the impossible choice between fighting for life—and letting go of love.

[Currently under heavy edit.] Death. What is death actually? Athan, a twenty-one year old genius, died in an accident. He got hit by a truck and was thrown few meters on the ground. "I couldn't even finish reading the novel..." He regrettably thought, holding onto his phone tightly not wanting to let go. In the screen, there were letters written in a sentence waiting to be read. However, he couldn't. In his last moment, he could only think of one thing. It was his wish to finish the remaining three chapters of the novel. "I guess I'll never find out the ending..." He closed his eyes and let his mind get drowned in darkness. [ Timer left : 00Y : 00H : 00M : 03S ] [ Timer left : 00Y : 00H : 00M : 02S ] [ Timer left : 00Y : 00H : 00M : 01S ] [ Timer left : 00Y : 00H : 00M : 00S ] As the loud ticking sound rang in his ear, his mind finally gave out as he fell unconscious. He was dead. He was sure of it, but... "Eh...?" The moment he opened his eyes, he found himself in someone else's body. He stared at his hands in surprise and noticed that he was in a body of a newborn child that came out just a few moments ago. And worse, "So... Am I gonna die again?" He was reincarnated as a villain.

Artis Hardy felt a sharp, searing pain on his cheek as his wife slapped him hard. Sophia, his loving wife, screamed at him in fury. "You beggar! I don't know I had mercy on you and married a scum like you! A man who can't even pay for his daughter's hospital is good for nothing, just like a worm of a gutter." At this moment, their three-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Eva, was lying on the hospital bed, suffering from a rare illness that ravaged her tiny body. They had spent all their savings and gone into debt, investing in her medical care while doctors tried and failed to find a cure for her. Artis walked out of the hospital and smiled bitterly. He had once dreamed of supporting his family and his love, but life had slapped him hard in the face. He lifted his head and took two deep breaths as if he had made up his mind. He took out his phone and scrolled down to a certain contact. After hesitating for a while, he tapped the call button and said, “Lend me some money.” “Sure, no problem. Just sign the papers, and I’ll send you everything you need.”

Leo was typical, overlooked and completely unprepared when a forbidden tome chose him and gave him the mark of a Warden and placed him under the Mage Academy. This school is an intermediary between worlds, a training ground where recipients of a gift of a System Interface, called a Codex, are trained. However, the file of Leo himself is empty, his Codex whispers that they are “unfinished,” and the elite at the Academy are watching him with suspicion and fear. Dropped into a realm of magical rank and fatal challenges, Leo is an exception. His magic is not dead, but a forbidden energy, which develops by consuming the magic and memories of others. In a maimed mentor who has an overabundance of knowledge, a genius competitor with a cursed lineage, and an ally with a talent to outwit the street, Leo discovers a rot inside the Academy. It is not merely teaching magic, it is harvesting it, it is tapping its students with the souls of its former students to feed its immortality, all managed by an enigmatic, manipulative Headmaster. As the boundary between the magical and the mortal realms collapses, Leo gets to know the horrifying reality of his destiny. He is a “Fractured Soul,” a descendant in an intergenerational cycle, who will either redeem the world or ruin it. In order to escape the cycle, he should learn how to overcome the same force that is eliminating his human nature and face the most outrageous truth of all: the man who has tortured him is his own father. The world has become the teacher, but Leo now has to rewrite the final lesson. Tags: Progression Fantasy, Academy Fantasy, Gaslamp Fantasy.

The multi-billion dollar real estate realm of the Morte Conglomerate belonged to Zander Morte. The ruthless heir was a strategic genius, but even he didn't foresee the treacherous plot hatched by his own cousin, Sable Morte. The car crash was intended to be fatal, Sable’s final, envious strike. Zander survived the mangled wreckage, yet the disaster stripped him bare, leaving the most powerful man in the family with absolute, bewildering amnesia. Sable immediately invokes a family clause to seize control of the Property Development arm, assuming Zander is permanently incapacitated. Zander, with no memory of his power, finds himself working as a low-status driver nicknamed "Ice" in the Morte world. His life is one of constant humiliation, suffering Sable's casual cruelty and the abuse of arrogant employees. This daily degradation fulfills the contest's "looked down upon" requirement, as Zander's lack of memory makes him genuinely powerless. The plot escalates as Sable prepares to sell the entire flagship building to cover his embezzlement and solidify his power. Meanwhile, five of Zander's most loyal operatives (Merk Keen, Onyx Blade, River Rend, Teggo Steel, and Ellvys Fog) have taken their own disguised roles within the organization to secretly protect Zander ("Ice") and gather the final evidence against Sable. A crucial plot point is River Rend's role as Sable’s Top Property Specialist, where he has access to all the illegal documents. The climax occurs during the final sale announcement. Zander's memory is fully restored just as Sable attempts to publicly fire and discredit "Ice". Zander delivers the final face-slapping reveal, exposing Sable's crimes with the proof provided by his five subordinates, reclaiming his identity, his company, and his legacy.

*Update schedule: 7 Chaps per week: 3 Tues, 2 Thurs, 2 Sat.* Does the death of billions of people even have any meaning to it? It's like once the number passes a certain threshold we humans are unable to imagine the severity such a scale entails. The once prosperous Immortal Domain witnessed its destruction due to an unknown disaster. A disaster that wiped out 2/3 of its entire population in mere hours. Billions, no, even trillions of lives might have been lost. After the Immortal Domain's Destruction, it was split into the Fragmented Lower Realms and the High Heavens known as the Upper Realm. However, all was not lost. From the flickering embers of life that remained, and after countless years, an Era that would eventually be known as the Resurgence Era was starting to show its first signs of brilliance. These first sparks were located in a Fragmented Realm called the Wither Daemon Realm, in which there was a planet named Daiyu. On this planet, heavenly prodigies that were born with one of the thirty rare Legendary Physiques were starting to pop up like common weeds. Longwei, a loudmouth and arrogant brat was born into the Wu Clan while possessing the third-rank Legendary Physique, the Dao Physique. He was also known as one of the six monster-level geniuses on planet Daiyu. His brother Longmin, his opposite, a quiet and reserved boy, though was an equally terrifying genius in his own right, had faded into obscurity since his birth and was estranged by their father after a certain catastrophic incident. This story is the supposed legends of two dragons, who through a journey of bloodshed and betrayal, led their clan to unify the Immortal Domain and stand above Demons and Gods as powerful existences. This is the Immortal Journey of the Wu Clan's Twin Dragons.
