I Became The Second

Alex has been in love with Damien since high school. After confessing her feelings, Damien—always the aloof and nonchalant type—agreed to marry her in a moment of youthful sarcasm, only to never bring it up again. Three years later, Alex has entered medical school at Kingston University, determined to prove herself as a capable student. But the universe has other plans. Alex is assigned to Damien as her mentor. He’s in his second year, having skipped a grade, and he's already ahead of everyone, including her. Cold, detached, and annoyingly perfect, Damien barely acknowledges Alex's presence, treating her like just another underclassman. She’s barely keeping it together in this high-pressure environment, struggling with her insecurities, and Damien’s presence only makes it harder. As they work together in cadaver labs, clinical rotations, and late-night study sessions, Alex is forced to confront her lingering feelings for him and the bitterness that’s grown between them. With every challenge and every critique, Damien chips away at her confidence. But Alex soon realizes that there’s more to Damien than the icy exterior—and it’s not just the academic pressure that’s getting to her. Their unresolved past slowly bubbles to the surface, and Alex has to decide if she can handle the emotional cost of finally confronting what’s been left unsaid for so long. Will Alex and Damien remain enemies, or will their undeniable chemistry be the spark for something more?

In my previous life, I joined a gang and became the most notorious fighter who killed my enemies with knives. Then I died and got reincarnated. In this life with magic and monster, I have the talent to be both a magician and a warrior. Using the two classes, I will become the strongest. Maybe. I will try a bit in looking for the reason why I got reincarnated here as well. Because I know that it was my master who taught me how to kill in my past life who reincarnated me into this world.

His name was 25. On Avalis, he was just one of many tasked with fulfilling missions for Earth’s people. This time, he was given a simple one—live as Zeno Han and have an ordinary life. Easy. Or so he thought. The moment he took over Zeno’s body, someone shoved a script into his hands. “You’ll be perfect for this role!” And just like that, he was on set. [Fame Meter: Unable to Measure. Off the charts.] Doctor? Check. Pilot? Check. Eunuch? …Regrettably, check. Every script forces him to relive past missions, and somehow, he’s nailing every performance. Now, the industry wants to make him a star, but can he still complete his mission? Or will fame—and the terrifying unknown of failure—be his final curtain call?

Throughout history, Humans have strived for greatness, not only in name but in deeds as well, and many failed to achieve it.  It was no different in a Land of Dragons, Mythical beings, Knights, Mages, Demi-humans, and demonic beings. But their greatness came in a different form, a concept known as POWER.  The power to conquer, to build, to control, to protect, and to love.  Raffaelo Jun was a man born with a silver spoon, yet his sheltered upbringing prevented him from becoming the man he was meant to be.  He was unable to achieve the greatness of the prestigious family of the Jun household and became a sight of ridicule.  He was used for a while until he wasn't, then discarded and killed for being a threat to the throne, but Fate had other plans.  Reborn as a child, he starts over as the sole son of the Jun household, his actions brimming with intent.  He had one goal: attain the power that he once ignored and stand on the precipice of human existence, to protect all that are dear to him.  Note: It starts slowly until recent chapters. Interesting side characters, power systems, techniques, and a mixture of variety with the right blend.

Shy and timid Naoki has spent his entire school life trying to go unnoticed. But one day, in a rare burst of courage, he stands up to a bully harassing another student. He expects a black eye in return—what he doesn’t expect is the school’s most feared delinquent, Rika Aoyama, watching the whole thing from the rooftop. The next day, Rika corners him in the hallway with a terrifying grin. “You’re my type.” Now, Naoki finds himself the target of affection from the toughest girl in school, who is completely clueless about romance but absolutely determined to make him hers. From walking him home (whether he likes it or not) to fighting off anyone who “gets in her way,” Rika’s over-the-top devotion turns Naoki’s peaceful life into a heart-pounding mess. But as he gets to know the girl behind the scary reputation, Naoki starts wondering… is it possible he actually likes being her crush?

The world as we know it has ended. Humanity has crumbled beneath the weight of its own destruction—virus outbreaks, zombie infestations, nuclear war, alien invasions. The world has become a wasteland where only the strongest survive. Tang Su Yan thought she had lost everything. Betrayed by her lover and her best friend at the brink of death, she cursed them with her final breath, vowing that if she ever had another chance, she would ensure they suffered the most brutal punishment. When she awakens, she finds herself three months before the apocalypse. This time, she refuses to be weak. With the knowledge of the horrors to come, she will rise above all, creating the safest and most prosperous haven under her rule. She will gather the strongest allies, claim every valuable resource, and crush anyone who dares to betray her again. The world may be falling apart, but Tang Su Yan will not—she will reign. The apocalypse has met its queen.

Haruto Kiryuu was a kendo athlete—dedicated, disciplined, and always chasing victory. But no matter how hard he trained, no matter how much he pushed himself, he could never claim the top spot. He was always second. Even so, he never stopped moving forward. Until the night his life was stolen from him. A robbery. A single moment of hesitation. A gunshot. And then—darkness. But his story didn’t end there. When Haruto opened his eyes again, he wasn’t in a hospital. He wasn’t even in his own world. Instead, he found himself lying on the cold, hard ground, surrounded by the sounds of war—metal clashing, men screaming, horses charging. Before he could even make sense of what was happening, a figure loomed over him, tossing a heavy sword into his hands. "You are finally awake… I thought you were done after that cavalry charge."

Betrayed. Ridiculed. Killed. That was my past life. I trusted the wrong people, and they buried me for it. But fate wasn’t done with me yet. When I opened my eyes again, it wasn’t in my old body—it was in a world overrun by the undead. And this time, I was one of them. A fucking zombie! But I’m not like the others. I think. I feel. I remember. What’s this voice in my head? [Welcome to the Silent Requiem System!] The system feeds me power, unlocking missions and skill buried within this body. I have one goal: rise in rank, take control, and make sure no one ever tramples me again. The humans I move with have no idea what I really am. To them, I’m just another survivor, clawing my way to the top. But in battle, I use my abilities in secret—manipulating the undead, eliminating threats, and turning every fight in my favor. But rumors are spreading. There’s talk of an undead hiding among them, unseen and unstoppable. If they find out the truth, they’ll hunt me down like a monster. And my past? It’s here too. The people who betrayed me in my last life are standing right beside me, unaware of who I am. But I remember them. They turned on me once—I won’t give them the chance to do it again. Then there’s him. The commander of the city, sharp-eyed and ruthless. He’s watching me too closely, asking too many questions. If he figures out the truth, I’ll have to make a choice: eliminate him, outplay him… or pull him into my trap before he can destroy me. Because in this world, power is the only thing that matters. And this time, I refuse to be at the bottom. *** "How did you survive when everyone else died?" I guess death just didn’t want me. "Why do the zombies ignore you?" Maybe I just have a face they don’t like. "You were just a nobody yesterday—how are you suddenly so strong?" Hard work, luck… and a little bit of hex. "Why do I feel like I've seen you somewhere before?" Déjà vu’s a funny thing, isn’t it? "What are you?" Wouldn’t you like to know? ~20 Chapters Mass Release on the 1st and 2nd of April!~

She’s the most beautiful woman in the Empire, but because she never made an attempt to dress up so nobody has ever seen her shine this brightly.
