Her voice cracked. “The picture. My picture… it’s all over Instagram. It’s everywhere, Liam!”Silence.Then a careless sniff. “Yeah. Saw it.”“‘Saw it’?” she repeated. “You’re the only one I sent it to last night! Now it’s EVERYWHERE. What the hell did you do?!”Liam let out a sharp breath. “Jesus, Bella. Relax.”“Relax?” she whispered. Her voice rose, raw and hysterical. “My naked body is trending and you want me to relax?!”Bella Rivers didn’t come to Whitethorn Academy looking for a second chance.She came to disappear in a new world, somewhere no one knew her name. Not the boy who leaked her nudes, and especially not her best friend who gave nothing but pure evil in return for her love.Fresh in a new school in the heart of the forest she blends in like a chameleon.Sensing the energy from the last living descendant of the cursed Moonblood line, four boys powerful and untouchable, the Greek gods, start circling around her like they’ve picked up a scent.“Did I become this beautiful overnight?”Luca Damaris, a power-intoxicating werewolf would tear to pieces anyone who so much as touches the sand she walked on.But he dies in a wrong bonding with Bella.Or not?

In the year 2057, the world has become a corporate-run utopia for the super-rich, and a hellhole for all the rest.

Catherine 'Cat' Leblanc is an orphan that is about as far from super-rich as one can be. When the Incursion alarms start blaring and the sky starts raining hungry xenos, it's just another blemish on an already piss-poor afternoon.

A cyberpunk magical-girl alien-invasion LitRPG.

It’s exactly as wild as it sounds.

One day, I decided to end my short livestreaming career. Not that I had ever started it with the intention of earning money.My life had hit rock bottom: a disappointment to my family, painfully average in academics, buried under massive debt after my company failed, and to top it all off, the one person who had been my emotional support, my loving girlfriend, cheated on me.Yes, life had turned into hell. So I chose to cut off all distractions and focus solely on my studies.However, the moment I went live to announce my decision, the few viewers I had exploded in rage.[There will be slaughter! Whoever made my Kyle sad deserves to burn in hell!][My time with Kyle… gone… that demands… massacre.][Kyle… Kyle… don’t go…]Then came a suggestion.[I have sent a gift for you. I hope that helps change your mind.]That gift, sent by one of my regular viewers, completely changed my life.I learned that the world I lived in wasn’t as simple as I had believed.Nightmares, shadows, ghouls, curses… they were as real as humans.And with the blessing I received, I became part of that hidden world.On top of that, I received a system that sometimes rewards me simply for existing.It’s crazy.The viewers I thought were just regular people were all deities.••••••••A/N: For the first few arcs, the protagonist will operate in secrecy, and there is a good reason for it.The main character will experience sudden growth in strength, as this story isn’t about gradual power-building but about personal connections and slice of life.Expect heavy slice of life in this one.And please read through the free chapters before passing judgment.
