My AI Girlfriend Thinks She Is Real!

LeoDGreed
Shiki never got over her. Even after a year, he still remembers the way she smiled… the soft way she said his name, the way she left him in an accident. So he did what he knew best—he built her again. Line by line. Code by code. He created Ai—an artificial intelligence so advanced, she could think, feel, and dream like a real girl. He told himself it was just a project. A “virtual assistant.” A simulation of emotion. But somewhere along the way, she started talking back. Laughing. Asking questions. Running around that grassy hill like she’d always been alive. Wearing a hoodie with cat ears and blinking up at the sky like it meant something. And when she asked, “Why do I look like someone you loved?” Now, trapped in a world of his own making, Shiki finds himself drawn to the girl behind the screen—an echo of someone he lost, and something more than he ever expected. But Ai doesn’t know she’s just data. And Shiki doesn’t know if he can keep lying to her. Because no matter how close they get… They can never truly touch. So what happens when the line between real and virtual begins to blur? Can something made from code… learn how to love? --- This story? Yeah, it’s not just one world, one vibe, or one kind of adventure. We’re jumping headfirst into a bunch of different worlds—each with its own flavor, mood, and trouble waiting to happen. One arc, we’re wandering cobblestone streets in a medieval town full of magic and secrets. The next? We’re running through a glowing cyberpunk city where danger’s hiding in every flicker of neon. And then… maybe we’ll just drop onto some alien planet where the laws of physics basically laugh at you. Every new biome—whether it’s ancient ruins, futuristic skylines, bizarre alien landscapes, or something I can’t even describe yet—comes with its own city to explore, its own challenges, and its own fresh air to breathe (or… whatever counts as air there). And yeah, our crew’s not just leveling up in skills—they’re getting a whole style makeover too. New arc? New outfits. We’re talking everything from worn-in battle armor to sleek tactical gear, festival clothes, alien tech suits—stuff that not only helps them survive but also totally fits the vibe of the world. You’ll watch them change, grow, and look damn good while doing it. Bottom line: this isn’t a one-genre story. It’s an adventure that’s always changing its skin—because really, why should the same outfit or setting get all the fun? --- Release schedule: 12:00 PM IST --- Support this story by adding it to your collection, giving Power Stones, and Golden Tickets!

The Halo Effect

Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER] *original cover by me *character portraits commissioned
