800 years ago, Xie Lian was a pure-blooded and noble Crown Prince, a well-regarded child of Heaven with unlimited potential. But who knew that, after he ascended and became a god with tens of thousands of worshippers, his fate would take such a sharp downhill turn? He was demoted again and again, and fell to rock bottom.

800 years later, Xie Lian ascended again, but this time, without worshippers and without incense. One day, after returning from collecting scraps, he took a mysterious young man home. And this young man was the Ghost King that made others pale in fear whenever discussed—Hua Cheng.

Heaven Official's Blessing

天官赐福

Azuma, Kaya

In the summer of 1992, Gene Edwards' vacation at his uncle Trevor's house takes an unexpected turn. While tidying up Trevor's study, he stumbles upon a collection of old love letters and cryptic notes about a man named Gene. As he digs deeper, he uncovers a long-buried secret, revealing a hidden chapter of his uncle's past.

Back in 1973, a kind stranger saves Trevor, a lawyer, from professional ruin by returning his lost documents. The stranger, Gene Walker, is homeless and unemployed, and he accepts Trevor's offer to stay with him in exchange for helping out around the house. Despite Gene's odd behavior and lack of basic knowledge, an unexpected bond forms between them.

Living on the margins of society—one as a gay man, the other as an ex-Amish urban transplant—they find comfort and love in one another. What begins as a simple connection grows into something deeper, reshaping their lives and challenging everything they thought they knew about themselves and the world around them.

Shinai naru Gene e

親愛なるジーンへ

With unparalleled strength, a harem in the hundreds, and rulership of both the human and demon realms, Luo Binghe is a typical male lead for the stallion novel Proud Immortal Demon Way (PIDW). Like every protagonist, he has a tragic past: suffering under the thumb of his loathsome shizun, the scum villain Shen Qingqiu.

However, despite its great world-building and setup, PIDW eventually went off the rails, abandoning plotlines left and right, and now focusing exclusively on gratuitous sex. This is the very trash-tier web novel that a young millennial named Shen Yuan curses as he dies, swearing that even he could write a better story.

That moment is when the "System" initiates, and Shen Yuan awakens in the body of Shen Qingqiu. His mission? Turn this piece of subpar fiction into a grade-A masterpiece. Constrained by a System that will punish him for even being slightly out of character, Shen Yuan must avoid Shen Qingqiu's fate of becoming a human stick—and step one is to hug the protagonist's thigh!

Following an unusual conversation and a sudden kiss, Oz learns that the boy, Theodore Sullivan, came to the bar because he is on his Rumspringa, the time when young Amish people leave their communities to experience the outside world. The pair form an unlikely bond soon after, but the differences between their upbringings threaten to tear the two apart—especially when Oz learns what happens at the end of Rumspringa.
