The Stardom Wrangler in the World of Dungeons and Magic

Han Sungjun was once a feared mafia boss with a Quantum AI in his bionic eye and the whole underworld at his feet. But, due to a simple malfunction in the flight control system, he died. But instead of staying dead, he wakes up in a parallel but totally different world—one where magic, dungeons, and monsters are part of everyday life. Somehow, he’s still himself, and Neo, his sentient AI, has transmigrated along with his consciousness. On top of that, his bionic eye carries Neo's counterpart, Eva. But in this world, he's not a mafia lord—he’s just a lawyer. When all feels like a dreaded life, 33-year-old Sungjun finds out that his daughter is alive in this world. Due to the change of career he took in this world, his daughter managed to grow up to be a teenager. And she has one big dream: to become a top K-pop idol. Sungjun doesn’t care about power anymore as his entire world now lies with his daughter's happiness. All he wants is to support her dream. So he picks a new path: becoming a celebrity manager. He starts from the bottom, slowly making a name for himself in the entertainment industry—not for fame or money, but so that one day, when his daughter finally debuts, he can be the one managing her. Sungjun possesses one of the most powerful abilities in the world, a Quantum AI, the most powerful digital entity working to his bid, and yet, all he wants to stay low, away from dungeons, learning the ropes, and building his way up in the flashy, chaotic, and sometimes shady world of showbiz. A story about a powerful dad, a magical world, and a dream that means more than any world-saving battle ever could. But will his destiny let him maintain such a lifestyle when he isn't the only transmigrated person? ** P.S. All characters are fictional. Even if some names in the novel coincide with real-life celebrity names, they are not.

CyberPunk: Low-Life, High Tech

"Greetings, chromed crusaders and organic oddities! Welcome to Night City—where the neon’s brighter than your future, the smog’s 40% carcinogens and 60% shattered dreams, and your survival strategy boils down to evading landlords and lead poisoning. Corporations? They’re auctioning your aspirations at a 300% markup—conveniently bundled with lifetime debt! Gangs? Hosting turf wars like community theater—tonight’s performance: Kabuki Carnage (sponsored by Maelstrom™). And Trauma Team? Let’s just say their motto’s ‘Resuscitation Pending’—pending your premium tier, of course. Strap on your subdermal armor, choke down that soy-paste ‘gourmet’ experience, and cross your fingers your neuralware doesn’t critical error during today’s mandatory firefight. Spoiler alert: it will. Tune in for updates, tune out the screams, or get systematically optimized—your obituary airs right after these messages. Stan out!” Translation Note: Now, listen up, choombas—this here’s a fresh take on "赛博朋克: 2075" from Qidian, a’right? Big shouts to SrMagnus for thier killer version, Cyberpunk: The Relentless (seriously, go read it—preem stuff). But I figured the ol’ girl could use a bit more ripperdoc grit in her veins, yeah? More scalpels, more synth-leather creak, more of that "oh-shite-my-spleen’s-out" charm Night City’s famous for. Sláinte to the OG, and here’s to bleedin’ new edges on the blade. And hey - if you've got thoughts, toss 'em my way. Feedback's always welcome, long as it's not written in bullet holes.... or soya milk, that shite just tastes wrong. [Cover art is not my own—just borrowing it for the ride. Original artist, if you’re out there and want it pulled, shoot me a message and consider it done. No drama, just professional courtesy.

The Good Girls

In the grim, war-torn future of humanity, a young girl named Lili witnesses the brutal fall of her world. When the Plague Demons of Lord Pesti´s descend upon her planet, the skies darken with a toxic green cloud, and soon, the infected rise—transformed into zombies with grotesque smiles and weeping eyes. As her parents become monstrous husks, Lili’s strength and resilience shine through, as she alone survives the chaos, guided by a mysterious, warm light that resides within her. As the last bastion of humanity fights back, Lili is taken under the protection of a battle-hardened Sergeant and his squad of Imperial Guard soldiers. Together, they find refuge deep within the abandoned metro tunnels, surviving for years as the world above is consumed by the infection. But nothing can last forever. When the time comes to fight their way back to the surface, only Lili and the Sergeant remain. In a final act of bravery, the Sergeant sacrifices himself, giving Lili a grenade and a chance to survive—though she, too, is left at the brink of death. But Lili is not gone. Her light, a beacon of life, keeps her soul tethered to the void, where she encounters the Sergeant’s soul, adrift in the darkness of space. In an impossible twist of fate, their bond is so strong that they are pulled through time and space, crashing into the year 1870—smack in the middle of the Franco-Prussian War. But the journey is not without its consequences. The Sergeant’s soul, now intertwined with Lili’s, takes on a new form as Lilis identical twin. And now they are two blonde-haired, blue-eyed, six-year-old girls. Together they must now navigate this strange new world—an ancient conflict, a new identity, and the remnants of their previous lives all converging as they fight to survive once more. Lili’s light may have saved her once, but in this new time, will it be enough to alter the course of history? Will they fight for a better humanity or accidentally destroy it? And in the process, will they ever uncover the true nature of their bond—and the destiny that awaits them? Will they be good girls or not so much so?
