Pokémon: The Reemployment of the Retired Champion of Paldea

AbsoluteCode
A year after transmigrating, Lucas Blade, forced by circumstances to become a trainer, accidentally passed the Champion Exam. Immediately afterward, he announced his retirement on the spot, stating that, having once suffered through the 996 grind, he now just wanted a leisurely and peaceful life. However, just as he invested a huge sum to buy land and planned to build his farm, his long-delayed golden finger (cheat ability) finally arrived. At this time, the Tera orb had not yet been developed, and Sada/Turo had not yet become completely obsessed with the research of Area Zero... On one hand, there’s a special hint system in his chat group secretly helping him grow stronger; on the other, there’s the increasingly bizarre farm, thanks to the random appearances of strange people and Pokémon. On top of that, he still has to deal with the various students with different personalities at Naranja Academy, where he works... From that moment on, Lucas’ peaceful life began to stir with new waves. PS: The setting of this book combines anime and games, with some original elements. The golden finger (cheat ability) is relatively low-key.] Tags: Pokémon, slice of life, making up for regrets, relaxing, heart warming novel

Beauty and the Thief [BL]

On hiatus until further notice due to health issues. --- Tao Hua's life is fucking miserable, and that misery somehow earns him the title of "Village Disgrace." In order to cope with the awful treatment, he often retreats into words untold, dictated by the flip of a page. These worlds leave him with the dream of escaping this piece of shit town. To his utter dismay, his wish comes true, but not in the way all those fairytales promised. His saviour is a man he becomes enthralled with and whom he names “Lord No-Name.” This male lead is a touchy man with many faces. And for lack of a better word, Tao Hua can’t decide if he’s either the story’s love interest or villain. But the two share a common sentiment. This prince, alike Tao Hua, is also fucking miserable. But arguably worse! And instead of coping like a normal fucking person, he does the opposite. He doesn't escape. He doesn't cope. He just tries to fight against the already fated truth of his demise. 0/10, worst prince ever written. Misery aside, this fateful encounter will force Tao Hua to make a choice, leaving him with only one question: "What was one mean-spirited beast to a town of people who despise a beauty's entire existence?" ──── ୨୧ ──── Beauty and the Thief is a slow-burn, stop to smell the roses, type of novel. That being said, the roses are beautiful, and upon closer observation they’re less floral than once thought. It follows the POV of Tao Hua, as he tries to navigate his new life in a place that actually values him, and the prince of this story’s mood swings. ──── ୨୧ ──── !!!!Disclaimer!!!! EXTREMELY SLOW PACED! Character driven, before plot! This story borrows the premise of Beauty and the Beast, by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, relying heavily on the trope while also twisting it to smithereens. The beast element is exchanged for a power dynamic, and the curse differs from the original story. The narration borders on sarcastic and self-aware, while also targeting deeper topics. It often breaks the fourth wall as a stylistic choice. A lot of the work will be edited over time, but the bones will remain the same. ──── ୨୧ ──── There are occasional illustrations littered throughout the novel drawn by me (slowly commissioning to get others done), usually found in the comments! !!CREDIT!! Cover Art by @Sayoto (VGen) Illustrations by me (@meowssey) and zaza (@zazhah) (Both commissioned artists are amazing to work with and I highly recommend their work!)
