bunnyreadsabook
I had thought that my life couldn't get worse when I walked in on my fiancé cheating on me with my best friend. But after a series of unfortunate events, I opened my eyes in a world that I had only read about in a webnovel, the Erudian Empire, ruled under the domineering, bloody reign of Emperor Helio. The worst part? I'm not even the main character! Reborn as Winter Royberg de la Erudian, I am the pitiful side character who is discovered to be a royal bastard princess due to a certain physical trait only the imperial bloodline possesses. But I know the end of Winter's story and the unwanted royal punching bag is framed as a witch and killed at age 16 on the guillotine due to the scheming of the cruel empress. An aloof, murder happy father? Check. Psycho half-sister? Check. Meddlesome author who wants me to follow the script? Double check! I don't want to die an early death again, so I'm determined not to ever be discovered as a royal again. But before I know it, I'm trapped in a palace of blood and opulence playing tricky games of power, games I have no clue how to win. How will I survive to adulthood in the imperial palace and get my happily ever after? And am I really the only person who fell into this world? *UPDATES 1-2 TIMES A WEEK* *1500 TO 3300 WORDS PER CHAPTER*

The obsidian debt blood of the silent sovereign

Synopsis: The Bastion of the Twelve ​The Bastion of the Twelve is a sweeping, serialized epic that explores the themes of absolute possessiveness, domestic survival, and the legacy of blood. Spanning over eighty-five years, the narrative follows the lives of Xuan and Ning, two souls who abandon the hollow prestige of the city and the "obsidian throne" to build a private, fortified dynasty atop a rugged mountain estate. ​The Core Conflict ​The novel is driven by the tension between the world they left behind—characterized by "rivals," "ghosts of the past," and "city filth"—and the rigid, self-sufficient reality they create. Xuan, a man of iron will and extreme devotion, acts as the architect and protector, while Ning, the emotional anchor, provides the "sabr" (patience) and grace required to endure decades of isolation. ​Narrative Arc ​The Foundation: The early chapters establish their retreat to the mountain, where Xuan meticulously replaces the fragility of modern life with "iron-reinforced" structures and "lead-weighted" stability. ​The Expansion: As the story progresses, the couple raises a son and a daughter—twins—who eventually bring their own partners and children into the fold. The mountain becomes a micro-civilization, featuring its own forge, weave-room, observatory, and library. ​The Late Years: By age eighty, Xuan and Ning witness the "Quadruple Quickening," as four women in the family (their daughter-in-law and granddaughters) become pregnant simultaneously. ​The Legacy: The novel culminates at age eighty-five with the arrival of six great-grandchildren—three sets of twins—mirroring the original twin birth of Xuan and Ning’s own children. ​Themes and Style ​The novel is written in a highly rhythmic, evocative style where every chapter consists of exactly 50 lines. It utilizes recurring motifs—the scent of salt, the sound of gulls, the "vibrating stone-ledge," and the "iron-reinforced" security of their home. ​The story concludes with Chapter 500, depicting an eighty-four-member family gathered on the highest terrace. It is a "very happy ending" that celebrates the total victory of private love over public ambition, proving that the only true kingdom is the one built through decades of shared labor and unyielding loyalty. ​The Guiding Principle: > "The misunderstanding that a 'king' in the city could offer a truer reign than this was a dead lie... They were the masters of the mountain, two souls who had traded the obsidian throne for the joy of life."

Wuthering Waves: The Eroge

Solaris-3 is a world ravaged by otherworldly disasters, collectively known as the Lament. For the past 10,000 years, the planet has endured the onslaught of the Lament and its creations. But humanity continues to persist, and leading them; the Immortal and Mighty Rover, a man, a hero, who had transcended all human limits and had disappeared and reappeared throughout different eras across Sol-3. Having failed to fully defeat the Lament countless times in the past and carrying many regrets, the ever persistent Rover reappears once again in the current era to save humanity. But this time, with a different, more lustful approach, licking his life as he wills, claiming any woman he wants... Shame and sorrow be damned. Time for the rise of the harem God! -------------------------------------------------------------- Hello. I am the author of this vain fanfic. As a fan and day-1 player of the popular gacha game, Wuthering Waves, I wanted to write this fic. Wuwa has a great story, world and characters, but my complaint with it is the same as my complaint for every such gacha or even anime. Where the female characters fawn over the protagonist, whether boldly or subtely, but he never reciprocates or even acknowledges them. In this fic, I have basically reimagined the world of Wuwa as a hentai game, where things will largely remain the same as the original game’s story, but the protagonist, Rover, will reciprocate the feelings of all the female characters. He will not be a passive character, rather in many cases, he will the one to make advances, romantic or otherwise. There will be a lot of sex, blood and gore. There will also be character crossovers from other gamesz anime and franchises, all integrated into the world, story and lore of wuwa. This is undoubtedly and unapologetically a wish fulfillment, self insert and erotic fic. The story is not to be taken seriously, rather to be casually read and enjoyed at your own pace. Also, though I did say things will largely remain the same, in actuality there will be some differences, big and small, in the story, lore as well as the personalities of some characters, primarily the Rover himself. again, don’t take this story too seriously, then you may even like it despite my abhorrent writing ability. Also, please don’t forget to leave any reviews, whether praise or criticism. While this fic isn’t anything serious, it's always nice to have others evaluate your ideas and to engage with people who enjoy the same media as you. Thank you for your time and patience. **Disclaimer: This novel is a work of fanfiction, made out of love and appreciation towards Wuthering Waves. Its a novel written purely for fun and enjoyment, not for any profit or monetary reasons. Wuthering Waves is the property of Kuro Games, I don’t own shit**
