Summary
“I shall refine my skills and prove my worth,” Phainon decides eventually, voice hard like he is afraid that anyone would challenge the claim. His eyes blaze as he stares right into Mydei’s soul. “I will surpass you, leaving you no choice but to watch my back.”
As he plays the words over in his mind, spoken like an oath, Mydei realizes he would have possibly done something very foolish were they not surrounded by his men. It should be concerning, the way he is drawn to Phainon so thoroughly after meeting him just now.
He is suddenly struck by the feeling of resemblance, recalling the tale of his parents he had heard so often from Krateros. Didn’t his mother challenge the King, proving herself a mighty warrior? Didn’t his father fall in love with her right then and there, rendered immobile by her strength?
or; Mydei might be a great many things. But among them all, he is still his father’s son with his weak and foolish heart.

Summary
The world was beautiful, once.
It wasn't Lucilius who made it so, no matter how much Belial tries to convince himself of this. It was the very act of opening his eyes and existing for the first time.

Summary
"Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”
Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.
Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?
Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.
And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

Summary
Let it not be said that Shen Yuan didn’t know how to be an accomplished—arguably better—writer than Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky! A middle-aged author in his hubris, he’d unknowingly triggered his fate and had his consciousness whisked away into an unfathomable mystical world that he would later learn to be based on Proud Immortal Demon Way and his very own work-in-progress. When given the opportunity to customize his character’s stats and to design his one remaining Customizable Skill Slot, as a veteran reader of transmigration stories and their tropes, Shen Yuan demanded, “Grant me the protagonist’s halo of course!”
The SYSTEM was silent all but for a minute.【Understood. Unique Skill "PROTAGONIST'S HALO" activated. Esteemed Host, you share the Unique Skill "PROTAGONIST'S HALO" with one other.】
“Who?”
【This world’s Luo Binghe. From the original novel series.】
“...Hold on, I need some time to process this.”
(Little did Shen Yuan know that this world’s Luo Binghe is the same sadistic “Bing gē” from the released Extra short story. It was also too bad that Shen Yuan, in his mortal form, resembled Shen Qingqiu by a good thirty-to-forty percent.)

Summary
Fate has a way of playing tricks on people even as it brings them together. Some of Foldan's legends say that when calamity comes, the goddess binds the souls of champions to ensure they fight at each other's side, onward to victory. Less spiritually-inclined individuals say that conflict makes friends, allies and more out of strange bedfellows.
Or, in which Dimitri punches out a racist and history is changed as a result. A merging of the Blue Lions and Golden Deer storylines.
