Employee of the Multiverse and His Darling Cat

by Lena Mano
Fantasy Science Fiction LQBTQ+ Fiction Comedy Isekai Romance

This journal was intended to recount how I, Noble Malik, a leader of the World Management realm, was transported to a strange world and forced to climb the corporate ladder in order to return home. Inadvertently, it seems to have become a diary about the odd worlds and dangerous mysteries I encounter on business trips with my partner, whose secrets and four-dimensional personality leave me at a loss---yet intrigued. And if the reader wants a literary perspective, I suppose it's about how a workaholic loner unexpectedly learns more about what moves people and himself while uncovering a universe-shattering conspiracy. But honestly, that's too philosophical and romantic. I just wanted to see my cat, Darla, again.

The Water Steps

by Bomb
Fantasy Adventure LQBTQ+ Young Adult

The Gods had imprisoned them within their territories. A boundary known as an ocean's divide limited how far ships could sail. The sole purpose of vast ocean gaps was to preserve the loyalty of mortals to their gods. If a ship dared to cross, it would simply tumble off the water's edge into a dark void. The void remained a mystery, with no one ever returning from its depths.

As Anne Hathaway died in a natural disaster, she was miraculously reincarnated as a villainess from a popular light novel (Priscilla Penelope von Shuli). Unfortunately, this villainess was condemned by her ex-lover and was sent away to live out her years in a monastery.

(Dungeons are many prominent places filled to the brim with hidden treasures and riches, as well as mysterious powers... But teeming with dangerous creatures around every corner...)

The journey ahead will be dangerous, but Anne will do whatever it takes to escape being sent to the monastery... And live on as Priscilla...
