The Substitute Healer (BL)

Pixie_Cruz
Content Advisory: Some scenes may be intense or disturbing. Reader discretion is advised. Three hundred years ago, in the Empire of Elarion, the Goddess of Resentment, Khaeren, cursed humanity for their greed of power and lust while the Goddess of Healing, Mirath, blessed certain souls with the power to heal. Duke Alaric Davenmore, a famed swordsman, is tasked with leading a unit to fight the monsters born from this ancient curse along with his twin brothers Lyric and Sylas, and the youngest prince Cael. In search of a healer, they find Soren, a quiet commoner persuaded by a friend to apply. But they only see him not as a true healer— only a substitute. Even as an exceptional healer, not only did the nobles ignore but even the temple doesn't want a commoner inside their sacred ground. Soren cannot feel physical pain, but his heart carries a lifetime of emotional wounds. As they fight monsters and face the dangers of the empire, will their differences keep them apart, or will they finally acknowledge the feelings they've been trying to ignore? And for Soren, who has never truly felt before— will he finally discover what it means to be healed, or sink deeper into the abyss within his heart?

My Hive Mind System: Rise of The Nuxali

Alexander was an ordinary game developer—overworked, overlooked, and forgotten. His latest project was meant to be nothing more than code: a hive-minded alien race driven by endless hunger, evolution, and ruthless survival. Then he woke up in an unfamiliar world, as a member of the very race he had created. Reborn as a Nuxali, a hive species ruled by queens and bound by genetic assimilation, Alexander finds himself trapped within the system he designed. Weak, small, and powerless within his mother’s swarm, he must survive under the iron will of a cruel Queen and adapt to a body that feeds, evolves, and dominates through consumption. This world does not reward mercy. Cannibalism is the path to survival. Evolution is law. And obedience is enforced through pain. Yet Alexander possesses something no other Nuxali has: a human mind capable of understanding the rules of evolution, the limits of biology, and the hidden potential of the system governing their existence. As alien suns rise over savage savannas and the swarm grows stronger through blood and biomass, Alexander begins his silent ascent. He will endure. He will learn. He will evolve. And when the day comes that he no longer needs to bow— The hive will change forever. What You Can Expect A hive species that does not evolve from insects (they are a panther-like species) Multiple intelligent life forms on the planet A system that does not grant power, but allows you to observe and measure progression Carefully designed, not easy evolution Civilization building Posting Schedule 5-6 new chapters each week on patreon.
