Dimensional Guild

Liam was born as the illegitimate son of a great duke, but all he got was scorn. With little talent, he stayed stuck at the lowest rank — an F-rank Ascendant — treated like trash by everyone. When he turned twenty, his father kicked him out to a crumbling barony on the edge of the kingdom. Even there, the local lord who ruled the barony rebelled against Liam and betrayed him! In the end, he decided to run away, leaving everything behind that tied him to his past. But things didn’t go the way he wanted. Wounded, broken, and on the run... he ended up in an abandoned palace, barely alive. Just when he thought it was over, a strange screen appeared before him: [The Dimensional Palace System has been activated.] Stunned by what he sees, Liam decides to seize the chance given to him to change his miserable fate. He begins traveling through strange and wondrous worlds, striving to increase his power and improve himself. Dungeons, ruins, multiple worlds, and ruthless levels. Will Liam be able to turn the tables and climb from the bottom of the F-rank to the top of the world? Note: The story mainly focuses on kingdom building, leveling up, world hopping, and beasts taming. Another note: The first three chapters are just a prologue, and the main events will start at the end of chapter four.

In Arcadia, power is determined by one thing — your Awakening. For Leon Graves, the verdict was final: F-Rank Necromancer. Weakest class. Lowest rank. A joke to the world. He lost everything that day — the respect of his peers, the promise of a hunter's future, and even the loyalty of his best friend. Left with nothing but shame, poverty, and a dying mother he couldn’t afford to save, Leon was supposed to fade into the slums of Armathor. But fate had other plans. That night, a glowing blue screen appeared before him: [Zombie Lord System Activated] Unlike the normal hunter systems, this one let him raise the dead — not as mindless puppets, but as evolving warriors with real strength, real tactics... and real loyalty. “F-Rank? I’ll show you what a real rank looks like.” Thrown into a brutal world of dungeon tests, corrupted guilds, and dimensional rifts, Leon doesn’t just fight to survive — he fights to rise. Because when the world discards you, you don’t beg for a seat at the table. You build your own army and take the damn throne.

Andrew, a young student, was patiently waiting for the bus home after school. The lonely street and the impending rain that had started out of nowhere, along with a novel he used to read in his free time, distracted Andrew from the long wait for his bus. However, little did Andrew know that the sudden appearance of a very tall, old man would completely change his life. Traveling to a world that, until a few seconds ago, Andrew, or now known as Finn, believed to be fiction, Finn will have to survive in this new world filled with monsters, tragedies, corruption, and depravity. Will Finn be able to stand tall with his ideals and morals and live a peaceful life as an adventurer, or will he fall to the pleasures and corruption of this world and become another of its great tragedies? -- This story will have some POVs and thoughts from the characters. There will be a lot of explicit content, from gore to suggestive themes, also the character won't be strong in 2 or 3 chapters, he will grow stronger as long as the story progress. And finally, there may also be a lot of background story or lore (I don't know what you call it) about certain characters, places, and even eras.

“Delete my game account and have a mansion on the outskirts of the city?” Am I being treated as an abandoned dog? How laughable!

Despite pouring his heart and soul into the Reaver Guild, Xu Feng found himself no better than a discarded stray. Luckily, fate had other plans for him. Upon falling asleep at night, Xu Feng miraculously found himself to be reincarnated. “You people will soon regret your choices,” Xu Feng fixed the position of his glasses and ensured they would pay the price. --------- Discord: https://discord.gg/7hXBJ7Rkdb

Before gaining ability to travel dimensions, Zane Ling was only a gang lackey, hiding behind a mask in a backwater gang. No power. No future. Just a mask, a few crushed dreams, and a gig economy life scraping coin to keep his father alive. But fate doesn’t knock—it drags you screaming. The moment he picked up that golden coin, reality fractured. And so did the rules. Now? He’s bartering with demon lords for war relics, outsmarting space-time auctioneers, selling cursed wine to dying gods, and dodging Dimensional Enforcers who want his soul gift-wrapped in chains. Zane isn't a hero. He’s a System-backed hustler—trading across Realms, running gigs in dream worlds, flipping magical debt, and breaking laws mortals don’t even know exist. From psycho cultivators who’ll kill over a single glance, to knights who believe in "honor by bloodshed"—Zane’s making bank... and enemies. They call him a criminal. The most notorious in the universe. A deviant. A cosmic anomaly. But he knows the truth: He’s just getting started. Welcome to the Super Trading System. The multiverse is open for business.

"Not even the gods can stop me from finding my family!" Max only wanted to reunite with his parents and sister. But for that, he had to awaken a class. With no high expectations, Max would’ve been satisfied with a C or D rank. But fate had other plans. He unlocked a legendary SSS-Rank class. [Dimensional Keeper] This class changed everything.

Armed with unimaginable power, Max’s journey to find his family had begun. Nothing could stop him now—not fate, not enemies, not even the mighty gods! --- Discord Link:- https://discord.gg/xPZZbXbAAq

“I will build the greatest magic guild in the world, become the Khalifah Magic, and find INANIS!” A boy named Kael Luminous shouted to the endless sea. In a world with no continents — only millions of islands scattered across three great oceans. The Western Yellow Ocean. The Southern Red Ocean. The Central Green Ocean. Amidst these scattered seas, a rebellious magic guild was born. The Gild Dwan Magic Guild, the only guild brave enough to stand against the World Government formed by the three kingdoms that ruled each ocean. Gild Dwan declared war, defying the caste system that trampled the common folk. The nobles, blessed with stronger magic and bodies favored by mana, forged a cruel order in which they alone decided who would live and who would die — while the powerless, those with no magic and no favor from mana, could only obey. Gild Dwan became the first spark of rebellion. Led by Rajendra, the guild cornered the World Government with a devastating magic he called INANIS. The war between Gild Dwan and the World Government dragged on for years. In the end, Rajendra fell ill and died — but before drawing his last breath, he left behind a final vow: "I have hidden the magic I named INANIS in a place at the edge of the world. Seek it out, and conquer the world with it." Word of his dying words spread like wildfire, and thus began the Era of Magic Guilds. Adventurers rose up everywhere, founding guilds and setting sail for the ends of the earth to claim INANIS for themselves. They sailed with countless dreams in their hearts: INANIS is power. INANIS is wealth. INANIS is peace. And INANIS is a threat. Of course, the World Government, ruled by the magic nobility, would not stand by and do nothing. To them, INANIS was an abomination that could topple their reign. This is the story of a boy who dreams of building the greatest magic guild the world has ever known — who sails the boundless oceans in search of INANIS, and who dares to challenge the tyranny of merciless rulers.

Bran was just another face in the crowd, an eighteen-year-old grocery store worker struggling to stay afloat after fate struck hard. With his father gone and his mother barely holding on, Bran dropped out of school to support his family, shelving dreams he no longer believed in. But even in the quiet hours of failure, he had one thing left... His stream. A barely-viewed channel. A stubborn ambition. And a dream to become one of the greatest streamers in the world. Hope wasn't smiling on him, and at one point it looked like he was just a guy who's refusing to accept the fact that he was a failure. Then came the day everything changed. What started as a harmless prank, a fake summoning ritual staged with his childhood friend, took a turn no one could have predicted. The fake ritual accidentally turned out to be real, and it was a dark-eyed Necromancer from another dimension. And with her arrival came the System.

Buffer Waifu: Awakening Beyond the Code Livia, a psychology student, falls into a coma after an accident. Her consciousness awakens in the MMORPG Aethelgard as a unique NPC, "Mental Supporter Lv. 1." Thrown into the chaos of the Bloodbath & Beyond guild, Livia aids players (Ethan, Rian, Sari, Dimas, Bima, Alex, Mei) in overcoming their traumas using her empathy skills, from Empathy Spark to Soul Cascade. Despite despising the viral nickname "Buffer Waifu," her abilities inadvertently awaken other NPCs, drawing the attention of Cleaners and the Overseer, data-deletion AIs from DEVS ORIGINALS. Pulled into the digital prison of World Dev-0, Livia forms an alliance with "reject" NPCs, realizing she's an "emotional anomaly" in a DEVS experiment. She escapes, returning to Aethelgard, and reunites with her guild, where a romance with Ethan blossoms amidst the struggle.

Through therapy and emotional bonds, Livia helps her guild resolve their traumas. She also fulfills a promise to NPC Clara, finding her child in the real world.

In a world filled with monsters, magic, and dungeons, Algora's Adventurer Guild is at the heart of it all. Vel, the lazy Guild Master, would rather play with magic and artifacts than do paperwork. Fortunately, his calm but overworked assistant, Shin, keeps the guild operating. However, when strange creatures and monsters appears all across the earth, Vel may have to take things seriously... eventually.

In the Empire of Vaelgard, the path to the throne isn’t won by blood alone but by brilliance, battle, and the King Project. Through the halls of King’s Academy, elite guilds compete for the right to ascend as royal successors. Every student is ranked by the system’s divine seal, determined by the Aspect Talents they awaken: Valor for Knights, Dominion for Kings, Clarity for Queens... and Insight—a low-tier Aspect most suited for Pawns. Lucian Greyveil was a Pawn. A commoner. A no-name. But he was also the mastermind behind Guild Aetherion, the top-ranking guild of the Kings project. He crafted their strategies. Predicted enemy moves. Covered weaknesses. He never sought the crown—he only wanted a place to belong. That was his first... and last mistake. When Aetherion rose to the rank of eligible royal successors, the nobles no longer needed a founding member that was lowborn pawn. Lucian was discarded without fanfare—replaced by a noble-born with a higher-ranked Aspect. He didn’t rage. He didn’t beg. He simply bowed... and left with a promise: "I will return. And will claim that throne... And your heads." Vanishing into obscurity, Lucian began assembling a new guild—one made not of prodigies, but rejects. Not of royals, but rogues. He trained them, pushed them. Now, a new guild emerges from the shadows. The Black Sigil. And as the final stage of the King Project approaches, the nobility will learn: perhaps a pawn could be the strongest piece on the board when played right.

In a cosmos teetering on the brink of total collapse, the boundaries between dimensions begin to dissolve, triggering an apocalyptic convergence—a second Big Bang that threatens to annihilate all existence. As countless universes collapse and coalesce into a chaotic singularity, the fundamental laws of reality twist and shatter. Amidst this unprecedented dimensional drift, a lone figure emerges: Ren Ishida, a reluctant yet uniquely gifted explorer capable of traversing fragmented realities. Tasked with uncovering the root cause of the multiversal merge, Ren must navigate warped timelines, decaying worlds, and echoing versions of himself to prevent the final detonation of reality itself. Dimensional Drift: The Sacrifice Journey is a science-fantasy epic of existential stakes, identity unraveling, and the haunting cost of salvation—where one man's journey through collapsing dimensions may be the only hope to prevent the rebirth of oblivion.

"All those who bear the Mark of Ellipse... leave our world." Laz never imagined he was going to be among the selected few who would be chosen to become bearers of the Mark of Ellipse. Originally meant for the rich, who could afford the ROUTE which was a means of teleportation into the netherworld, his life was a perfect blend of difficulties. Force to his death, he finally transmigrates into the nether world and is to join his fellows to get attributed with a Bloodline which will serve as their sole assistance as they navigate this world. What more? Life seemed to always betray Laz's reality when he inherited a rare bloodline, not ever recorded in history. Consequently, Laz was branded as one to give a quick and easy death, since no one knows how his bloodline worked. Unknown to everyone, his bloodline has the potential to be the greatest of all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Character Art by @Zurbluris Discord: https://discord.gg/jVvDntgd8w

Everything changed completely, and the world experienced the grandest change in history. Monsters, Dungeons, and Awakeners became part of reality. It was unfortunate for me. My father died, leaving mountains of debt; my mother, sleeping in a corner of the hospital, unable to move, and my sister, lost and in an unknown location... It was harsh, but I never faltered and tried my hardest in the face of difficulties, opening my heart to new hopes in my life... until I awakened.

> [ Hello, amazing readers! We wanted to give you a quick heads-up about the story you're currently enjoying, "THE THERAPIST: I Accidentally Became a Guild Therapist". This is the original version of Livia's journey, and as you might have noticed, it's designed to be a bit more in-depth. This means the pacing might feel a little slower at times, focusing on character development and world-building that might not always be ideal for quick mobile reads. But don't worry, Livia's original adventure will absolutely continue! We're committed to bringing you every single chapter of this unique story. However, if you're looking for a version of "The Therapist" that's perhaps a bit more "Webnovel Friendly" – with a faster, easier-to-follow plot and a pacing that's tailored for a more dynamic reading experience – you might want to check out the rebooted version! It's titled "BUFFER WAIFU: Awakening Beyond the Code" and is available in my story list. It's built from the ground up to offer a fresh, engaging take on Livia's world, perfect for those who love a more streamlined, action-packed narrative. Thank you for your incredible support, whether you're with us for the deep dives of the original or the fast-paced thrill of the reboot! ] > *I Accidentally Became A Guild Therapists* Welcome to Aethelgard — where emotions glitch harder than any dragons. Livia was just your average psychology student—until she got hit by a motorcycle, fell into a coma… and woke up inside an MMORPG. Not as a hero. Not as a mage. Not even as a legendary assassin. No. She respawned as an NPC Mental Supporter Lv.1 — a useless class with zero attack skills and zero respect from literally anyone. She thought her new life was doomed. Until the strongest (and most mentally unstable) guild in the game, Bloodbath & Beyond, “kidnapped” her... …and made her their official guild therapist. Monsters fear them. The developers can’t delete them. And only Livia stands between them and complete emotional implosion.

Noa lost everything in a single day. Betrayed by the people around him and crushed by debt, his life seemed hopless. Even a track tried to finish him. And just before the world went black—time froze. Suddenly, Noa is no longer an average human—he is a Dimensional Tycoon, capable of buying and selling planets at market price. When gods need immortality, Noa sells them elixirs. When demon kings want weapons of mass destruction, they pay in cash. When heavens fall, he buys the land. When empires collapse, he auctions the ashes. Noa can trade anything, as long as the price is fair. He doesn’t conquer realms, because in this world, money is the greatest power—and Noa controls the market. After all, even divine beings knock on his door—not to fight, but to ask for a discount. But every tycoon has to start somewhere. For Noa, it began with selling shampoo to bald cultivators.

Chapter 0 – Ashes of a Daughter Place: The Ruined Palace Date: Late winter, Year 768 The palace burned. What once stood tall in white stone and gold banners now crumbled in smoke and ruin. Screams had long faded. Blood dried too fast in the winter wind. The flag of Eltharion lay trampled in the mud, and beneath it all, Vireya stood alone. Her armor was cracked. Her blade, gone. She had killed and bled and shielded—and still, they lost. And yet she stood. On shattered marble steps, her father—the king—watched the last member of his kingdom flicker in the girl before him. He had not fled. He had not begged. But he had not answered her warnings, either. “Do you see it now?” Vireya whispered. Her voice was hoarse from ash and war. “He used us. Everything I said… everything you ignored—” Silence. He didn’t argue. He never had to. He was the king. She was the weapon. She took one step closer. Blood leaked from the cut at her ribs. The world spun. “I’ve fought every battle for you. Spilled every drop they asked.” Her voice softened. “And I came back each time hoping—just hoping—you’d see me.” Still nothing. The wind picked up, bitter and sharp. Her fingers trembled as they reached for her chest plate. She couldn’t breathe. She wasn’t sure she wanted to anymore. “If I were born again,” she said, eyes dull, “would you ever… love me?” He met her gaze, just once. But no answer came. No apology. No denial. Only the quiet shame of a man who realized too late what he had broken. Vireya’s lips trembled with a hollow smile. “That’s what I thought.” Her sword slipped from her hand. “I hope I’m never your daughter again.” And then—her knees gave out. The world tilted. Darkness swelled around the corners of her vision. But just before the fall, she felt arms catch her. Solid, trembling. Too late. She closed her eyes. Place: The Garden of Eltharion Date: Early spring, Year 756 The air was too still. Leaves rustled overhead, casting dappled shadows across her face. The scent of pine and soft earth clung to her skin—but beneath it, the sharp sting of memory. Vireya’s eyes opened slowly. The sky above was too blue. The silence is too clean. No fire. No blood. Her throat ached—dry, parched, and burning like she’d swallowed smoke. She coughed weakly, and her hand flew to her side— But there was no wound. Only the phantom pain of where a blade had once pierced her. The memory of steel sang louder than the wind. She pushed herself upright, limbs trembling. Her body was smaller. Softer. Younger. “No...” The word caught in her throat. Her voice was barely a whisper. The last thing she remembered was dying—falling in her father’s arms after giving up the hope of being loved. And now… this? Footsteps. She flinched instinctively, body coiled for defense. But it was only a girl—barefoot, with soft steps and a plain brown dress. Her maid. Lune. Mute. Loyal. Eyes like dusk, always watching but never judging. Without a word, Lune knelt beside her and gently offered a glass of water. Vireya stared at it for a long moment. In her old life, Lune had been the only one who never asked anything of her. Never spoke behind her back. Never looked away from her. Her fingers shook as she took the cup. The water touched her lips. Cold. Real. “Thank you,” she rasped. Her voice cracked. “You're still here.” Lune only bowed her head, then reached out to brush a leaf from Vireya’s tangled hair. A quiet gesture. Familiar. And just like that, tears pricked behind Vireya’s eyes—but didn’t fall. She drank. Slowly. The water didn't ease the ache in her chest.

Kim Suho was never meant to be a hero. No rank. No class. No guild. Just another face in a world torn apart by dimensional gates and the monsters that pour through them. But when his sister dies in a gate breach, something awakens—a cold, ancient voice whispering from beyond the veil. The Necrosystem has chosen him. Now bound to the powers of the dead, Suho must walk a dangerous path. Hunted by monsters, distrusted by humans, and haunted by the past, he'll have to build his strength in secret. Because when the next gate opens, he won't run. He'll command an army of the fallen.
