Palace Fighting: Naive Concubines' Ascent to Power

Whistling Autumn Wind
In the first episode, Little Palace Maid Lian Hua, holding tea leaves, thought to curry favor with Zhaoyi. The Emperor intercepted her halfway, and before she could react, he hijacked her tea leaves, leaving her bewildered. In the second episode, she wanted to curry favor with the Noble Consort. During the Noble Consort's birthday feast, she hadn't even presented the meticulously prepared tea leaves before the Emperor seized them, leaving her aggrieved. In the third episode, she had just sneaked out with the Palace Maids to pick bamboo shoots, planning to go back and cook something delicious when the Emperor burst out of nowhere wanting to freeload a meal. If it wasn't tasty, he would punish her, she managed to barely pass muster by exerting all her energy. Before she could feel relieved, the Emperor told her he was also staying to sleep! This time, he was thoroughly taking advantage of her, enjoying free food and lodging without the slightest intention of rewarding her. At night, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. All the silver she had saved up in earlier years had been used to sustain the Emperor. Now that the money was gone, she feared being punished for not being able to support him in the future. The more she thought, the sadder she got, her tears plopping down, which woke the Emperor sleeping beside her. In a flurry, the Emperor consoled her, "There, there, don't cry, don't cry. I haven't even had time to reward you, how could I punish you!" After much consoling, and finally with his promise to provide for her sustenance, she turned her tears into laughter. The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. This Little Concubine would need to be favored properly from now on—he dared not make her cry again. →→【This story has concluded, thank you for reading】→→ New book recommendation: "Consort of the Roll-Royce is Here, Run!"—It's a good read!

Starting With SSS-rank: I Get A New Skill Every Livestream

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. https://ko-fi.com/rashcore

The Demon Lord’s Velvet Curse: My System Only Targets Lethal Beauties

[ SYSTEM ALERT: NEW GENRE DETECTED — EROTIC COMEDY ] Kael “The Unyielding” is the Kingdom of Austeria’s most efficient weapon. He treats warfare like accounting: cold, precise, and emotionally bankrupt. He has never lost a battle, and he has certainly never lost his composure. That is, until he kicks down the door of the Demon Lord Erosia. Bored out of her mind by Kael’s lack of narrative spice, the drama–hungry Demon Lord decides to give the stoic hero a fatal flaw. With a single, lazy flick of her clawed finger, she curses him with The Velvet Hunger—a spell that doesn’t just scramble his desires… it gamifies them. Now Kael is plagued by a neon-pink, translucent pop-up screen that only he can see. It floats in his vision, blinking like a magical mistake trying to ruin his public reputation: [ TARGET CRITERIA: WOMEN WITH FLUFFY TAILS ] [ MATCH DETECTED! INITIATE… COURTSHIP PROTOCOL. ] Suddenly, the man who once tanked a hydra’s breath is gripping his sword because a fox-kin librarian smiled at him the wrong way. To scrub the glitch and reclaim his dignity, Kael must fight his way back to the Demon Lord’s citadel. He is accompanied by a party assembled for maximum damage control: • Ignis, a battle golem programmed to physically restrain him when the curse activates, • Varen, a panicking geriatric alchemist who does not get paid enough for this, • Brother Oat, A young, incredibly handsome, pacifist monk who has taken a Vow of Silence and a Vow of Chastity. He acts as Kael safe space. • Sir Roderick, The textbook definition of a hero. Chiseled jaw, shining armor, kind eyes, courageous heart. He is perfect. He is Kael right hand man. • Pip, a defective cupid-like cherub who cheers loudly every time Kael makes a terrible decision. • Elara, a cynical Half-Elf with ink-stained fingers, messy dark hair, and glasses(which she nervously takes off whenever Kaelen looks her way).As the only human female in the group, she lives in constant fear that the "Weekly Criteria" will cycle to match her. Kael has to save the world from eternal darkness—if he can stop his internal HUD from locking onto every deadly woman he meets and labeling her with things like: [ THE EXECUTIONER OF DUNGEON LEVEL 49 HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS YOUR IDEAL FIRST DATE. ] And unfortunately… she agrees.
