Komi Can't Communicate Tadano

In the neon-choked sprawl of Neo-St. Petersburg, memory is the ultimate currency, and Nikolai Volkov is a man bankrupted by the elite. Once a low-level "Memory Cleaner" for the 1%, Nikolai is subjected to a brutal neural wipe after witnessing a ritualistic murder committed by the untouchable Senator Volin. But the "Mind-Crusher" fails. Instead of erasing his soul, it shatters the barriers of his consciousness, granting him a direct uplink to the Akashic Repository. Now, Nikolai is a living virus in a world of silicon and sin. By mere proximity, he can "eat" the combat skills, deepest secrets, and primal fears of anyone he encounters. From the mud of the "Sector-Zero" slums to the gilded penthouses of the corporate gods, he begins a cold, calculating ascent on the Escalation Ladder. He isn't just seeking revenge; he’s hunting for the fragments of the man he used to be, only to discover that the Senator didn't just delete his past, he’s using it to fuel a "Demon-Upload" that will enslave the global Net. Packed with high-stakes "face-slapping" and cinematic action, PHANTOM IN THE SHELL is a gritty cyberpunk thriller about a man with a thousand faces and no identity, proving that the most dangerous thing in the world is a ghost who remembers everything you want to forget.

He spent three years on his knees. He was never meant to be there. Three years ago, Kael woke up in an alley with no memories and no name. A wealthy family took him in, married him to the daughter they'd given up on, and turned him into their live-in servant—the one who apologizes when vases break and doesn't fight back when fists fly. Then something inside him starts to wake up. Hunters begin appearing. Beautiful, inhuman things that speak a name he doesn't recognize, and when they say it, something in him answers. Memories start bleeding through—memories of power, of judgment, of being something far more than human. Kael wasn't a nobody who lost his past. He was a god. The one who held other gods accountable. And when he got too close to their secrets, they ripped away his power, erased his mind, and buried him in a mortal body to suffer and forget. Now he's remembering. But every time he reaches for what he used to be, he loses a piece of the life he built here—his memories, his emotions, his connection to the wife who stayed. His brother, a god of war, is coming to finish the job. Seven days until he arrives. Kael can become what he was and lose everything human about himself, or stay who he is and die.

In The Culling Game, survival begins at the fall… but death waits at every step. Every year, two hundred lives are stripped from their homes and thrown into the arena for an experiment as old as fear itself. The Culling Trial This year, one name didn’t belong. Kae’s. Illegally marked by his step-aunt’s ruthless blackmail, Kae never should’ve been chosen. Yet he is plunged into the trial with the other candidates, thrust into a labyrinth where everything can kill and every alliance bleeds dry. With the walls of the arena shrinking, there is no place to hide. But the greater danger waits beyond the battlefield. Even if Kae survives the trials, his enemies outside the walls—will ensure he never sees freedom again. To survive, Kae must carve a path through a world designed against him before it's too late for him.

Richard Williams was the man who had everything, brilliance, wealth, and a family that should have been his pride. Until the night of his daughter’s third birthday, when his wife’s family branded him a fraud, stripped him of dignity, and sent him to prison for crimes he did not commit. But Richard was no ordinary billionaire. Behind the walls of betrayal, he had hidden empires, untraceable fortunes, and a mind sharper than any blade. Now free, masked by a new identity, Richard returns. Not as the man they destroyed, but as the shadow they never saw coming. His wife has taken another man’s arm, his daughter has been taught to despise him, and the vultures of society have moved on. He has returned for vengeance, redemption, and the one thing money can’t buy his daughter.

Five years ago, Jian “The Ghost” Mercer was the sacrificial lamb of the prestigious but corrupt Mercer family. To save his foster brother from a hit-and-run sentence, he was coerced into a high-security tomb known as “The Abyss.” There, instead of breaking, he met the Calamity Physician, a legendary prisoner who taught him the Divine Pulse—a medical art that can snatch lives from the gates of hell—and the Asura Strike, a martial style that turns the human body into a lethal weapon. Now, the gates have opened. Jian returns to a city that thinks he’s a broken convict. He finds his foster family living in luxury off his biological parents' stolen estate, while his wife, the only person who stayed true, is being auctioned off to settle a debt he didn't create. The king has returned, not for a crown, but for a reckoning.

Jin Tae Kyung is a young man who died as a result of an accident he had while leaving the house. He thought that after his death he would be sent to heaven or something like that.

Tae Kyung, who doesn't know anything, and the reason he can be transferred to Valhalla, looks confused about this. Tae Kyung must follow the battle that took place in Asgard with the gods and other knights. Tae Kyung's journey to meet every God in Norse mythology, as well as the abilities possessed by Jin Tae Kyung who received the blessing of the Goddess Idun will be presented in an epic way in the story.

They broke his bones. They spat on his pride. They left him to die in the gutter. They just made the biggest mistake of their lives. Zolda was nothing—just another piece of street trash in a city ruled by cruel billionaires and ruthless gangsters. But on the verge of death, the heavens blinked. An ancient seal shattered, gifting him the Kunao Inner Eye and the forbidden Legacy of the Divine Healer.

With a flick of his wrist and a single silver needle, he controls life and death. From crushing arrogant young masters at charity galas to battling cyborg assassins and dismantling ancient immortality cults, Zolda is on a warpath. Along with a genius fallen heiress and a deadly assassin-doctor, he’s building an empire on the ruins of his enemies. One hand offers salvation. The other delivers absolute destruction. In a city where money used to be god... Zolda is the new religion. "You have two choices: Get cured, or get crushed. The Emperor is in session."

“You don't deserve this throne. Your birth was nothing more than a mistake by my late husband, so don't think any more of yourself. But if you still want to be King, then go into the territories and kingdoms outside Griffindale and build your army of followers and allies from scratch. Whenever you feel like you have amassed a huge following enough to seize the throne away from me, then you can come back to fight for it. But from now on, you are on exile.” “The throne belongs to me, Stepmother. Nevertheless, I will do as you ask. But rest assured, for what you've done, I will return—not just for my throne, but also for your head.” “While the Queen fumed with rage in her private chamber, Cyrus emerged from her quarters wearing a satisfied grin, knowing his destiny was now set in stone. He would one day become king, no matter what.” -------- This is my first novel on the platform, so my pacing and world-building aren't the best, but it gets better with time. The story is set in a medieval world, somewhere in an alternate version of ancient Europe. At first the tone focuses more on war and basic politics, but as the story progresses, there will be more magic/fantasy elements added - like dragons, witches and fables. If you enjoy the work, please consider supporting it in any way you can. Any means of support goes a long way for me and is duly appreciated. Have Fun!!!
