Synopsis

A thousand years ago, cultivators split mountains, spirit beasts ruled the skies… and then qi vanished, taking legends with it. In the modern Age of Qi-Tech, mortals build cars, not swords, and cultivation exists only in bedtime stories.

Then there’s Ren Kai — broke, stressed, and just trying to keep his family’s orchard alive.

One unlucky pebble to the head changes everything. Suddenly, Ren Kai can control qi — a power the world thought lost forever. Immortality? Legendary sects? World-shaking battles?

Nah.

Ren Kai has better things to do. Like growing perfect spirit pears, making his flowers so radiant they blind merchants, and raising two overpowered idiot dogs who may or may not start glowing at night.

Life was supposed to be farm, nap, snack, repeat. But with ancient treasures resurfacing, nosy villagers gossiping, and a power that refuses to stay hidden… peace might be the hardest crop Ren Kai has ever tried to grow.

A cozy, hilarious, and heartwarming slice‑of‑life cultivation story about a “reluctant OP farmer” just trying to live his best chill life.

Dungeons and Dalliances

Life at Tenet Delving Academy isn’t easy in the best of cases. It’s a life filled with scheming classmates, brutal competitions, and an ever-changing, ever-deadly dungeon.

And Natalie?

Natalie’s got all that to deal with and more. Given a bizarre class that encourages her to cozy up with as many women as she can, her future career is sure to be a disaster … though maybe in a good way. Because if she’s honest with herself, she might learn to love the class granted to her, and all the heart-pounding adventures that come with it.

Boosted Restart – A new chance in a different world

The sequel, -Boosted Continuation-, is out!!!

Sophia wasn’t happy with her life after having made some wrong decisions. Introverted and shy to the point it even hindered her from having basic interactions, she felt lonely from being unable to talk with women at all, the only gender she’s interested in.

The girl wanted to better herself, but Sophia couldn’t do so without help after all this time. This changed when she got into an accident that led to the end of the life she hated so much.

Someone calling himself an ‘overseer of worlds’ decided to save her from certain death. He gave her a second chance in a different world where even magic exists. He also ‘blessed’ her with many so-called boosts to make her life easier. Sophia took this chance and asked him to become more outgoing, confident, and the likes.

The overseer didn’t stop there, though. He boosted every emotion and personality trait, whether positive or negative. Her physical stats were no exception, either. To make things worse, those boosts also weren’t overly reliable. They occasionally overcompensated or even failed.

Sophia worked hard to deal with her new and complicated situation while doing her best in the new world. Exploring places, learning magic, finally finding friends, and possibly more while having a slow and easygoing life overflowing with fluff.

Unfortunately, she learned magic from a highly overpowered, easygoing, and somewhat unreliable teacher who became the girl’s first friend. This not only destroyed the last bit of her common sense, but Sophia’s application of magic became rather sloppy, causing one weird incident after another.

She met many new friends and had an easygoing life filled with fluff 96% of the time. Still, her vast powers and the lack of common sense, combined with her being beyond carefree while rarely thinking about the consequences of her actions, made her life anything but slow.

----------------------
Info:
Most of the time, once you managed to get through the first ~20 chapters (and the parts where humans are involved), this story is the embodiment of FLUFF. Still, it can get a little suggestive without beating around the bush at times much later on. There's no actual NSFW stuff and nothing descriptive, either. Still, it will be clear that any couple has an active sex life that gets some mentions, including a few details, every now and then. The girls can be a little thirsty at times.

I Own a Brothel in Another World

Alastair Carter is a 27-year-old marketing and management teacher like many others around the world. Well... maybe besides the fact that he teaches some of that world's prodigies, but it's just a small detail. Even though he loves fantasy novels, he has never expected getting sucked into a fantasy world himself. I mean, who does?

Follow Alastair and find out how he will deal with this predicament. Will he be nominated as a hero? Will he save the world in crisis or focus on looking for a way back to Earth? Or perhaps, will he settle down and live peacefully? This is the beginning of a great tale...

Full-sized cover can be found in the glossary.

Chapter Ero-meter:
❤ - A bit of explicit content
❤❤ - Around half a chapter of lewds
❤❤❤ - WAIT?! IT'S ALL F***ING LEWDS?!

Main release day:
Monday.

What to expect:
Some light management, a status system in the background, wholesome lewding centered around the MC, a slice of life story with some adventuring and lots of lovely monster girls.

What NOT to expect:
Depictions of rape, mindbreak or abusive mind control, heavy sexual abuse, NTR and other heavy stuff.
The title is not a "bait", but please don't expect fully devoted "hot" chapters every other release. It all depends on the flow of the story (which is still a Slice of Life) and might come to a moment where stuff may happen often, but not all the time.

Liu Feng wanted to be a cultivator who defied the heavens, surpassed all limits, and had jade-skinned beauties clamoring around him. He wanted to fight anyone who got in his way, and shatter the arrogance of those young masters!

Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I'm stuck here.

Jade-like beauties? No thanks, I have an awesome magical energy to study.

Young masters? Life and death battles? No, I would rather read some books on cultivation, and master some techniques that clearly don't obey the laws of physics.

There is a junior who has trash talent but suddenly started advancing by leaps and bounds? And he seems to be favored by the heavens themselves? Yeah, that has nothing to do with me.

(Chapters 7 to 62 had to be removed to satisfy Kindle Unlimited's exclusivity clause.)

The Gate Traveler

★ 4.5

TravelingDreamer

A Low-Stakes, Cozy, Slice-Of-Life World-Hopping Adventure

John, a 37-year-old widower, is feeling lost. Grief, regrets, and the weight of the past push him to long for something new, something different. So when he finds a way to travel between worlds through dimensional Gates, he takes it. Some research, a bit of training, and he’s off.

Sure, his class has the potential to be overpowered, but he’s not in it for fights, fame, or power. He’s here to breathe again. To heal. To see what else is out there in the multiverse. He moves at his own pace, helps out when he feels like it—sometimes as a healer, sometimes as something else—and keeps track of it all in a kind of diary. It’s more about the journey than the destination. About magic, new places, and figuring out how to live again.

This isn’t some dark, gritty tale full of battles or world-ending stakes. It’s about traveling with friends. Awkward conversations, good food, learning magic, and way too much shopping. It’s about the little things that make life worth it—and how even small actions can sometimes ripple out with a butterfly effect.

Scattered throughout the story are short side stories. Glimpses into other worlds, other travelers, or the consequences of his choices. They all circle back eventually, adding layers to John’s path and filling in the bigger picture.

This is a different kind of LitRPG. It’s slower paced, written in a semi-journal style, and focuses just as much on the inner journey as it does on the outer one. Big parts of the story happen on Earth, before he leaves, and when he occasionally comes back.

Pictures generated by AI accompany the story. Or, to put it in John’s words, “Traveling without taking pictures is a travesty.” Starting with Book Two, songs are also woven into the story, created with SUNO AI.

So kick back, grab a coffee or a snack, and take a break from reality. Join John, the Gate Traveler, on a never-ending vacation.

RE: Keep it in the Family (Secret Class)

★ 4.7

Nneeil

Lauded by millions for his rarely-seen talent with the ball, Jair Campinho meets a tragic end at the World Cup. Death, however, is not the last page of his story. Now stranded in a world that doesn't make much sense, he'll find himself coming to terms with his new identity as Cha Jae-il.

Can a jaded mind and talent for a sport sweep clean the stains of his past, or will the women of his new family bring him down an even bigger and unexpected abyss? Love isn’t simple. It never was. And for Jair, the real question isn’t whether to run… but how far he’s willing to fall.

[!] This story contains mature topics such as incest, obsession, potentially physcological issues, and explicit sexual content. Beware the tags.
[!] I'll try to keep the incest as real as possible; if you want the protagonist to bang everyone by chapter 3, you should skip this one. While this story will have a lot of sexual content, I'd like to give the characters enough time to estabilish their dynamics and relationships first. Patience is a virtue, as they say.
[!] There's no update schedule since I'm stocking up chapters. You can expect consistency in the future.
[!] There might be crossover elements from other pornhwas. Characters, mostly. An emphasis on 'MIGHT'.
