The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ Release Schedule:- 2 Chapters Every Day! But wait—there’s more! Want extra chapters? Your support makes it happen!

During the demon-summoning ceremony, Aiwass finally recalled his past life's memories. This should be an online game that his family's company had released and operated for six years. Now, his foster father was the leader of the latest version's antagonist organization. He would expose his identity six years later, hesitate and then defect from the protagonist's side. Ultimately, because he decided to take a fatal strike meant for the player character, he was killed by his upright older brother in a transitional CG without even a chance to enter the main content. ——But the problem was not too significant. Aiwass also knew many secret advancement routes exclusive to the player character, as well as the Nurturing Secret Sequel regulations of the various Paths. He believed he could reverse his unfortunate fate…… So now there was only one issue left. "According to the original plot, shouldn't I have been rescued by the protagonist before this lousy ceremony even began?" Tied to the ceremonial altar as a sacrifice, Aiwass fell into contemplation. —————— Keywords: Victorian Fantasy, Amber Flow

“Unlucky” would be the nice way to describe Lucas’ luck. He wasn’t just down bad. He was practically cursed. As someone who never asked to exist, he’s had to experience medical torture, imprisonment, and eventually death. And that was just his first life. Then, just as he thought of escaping his fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Empire’s most useless Flower Vase. Great, now he should have status, wealth, and beauty, right? Wrong. Because his new body, Young Lord Luca Kyros, was a vegetable. And what’s worse was that no one else seemed to know the truth. To everyone else, he was just your typical rebellious heir. He wouldn’t have minded that. He was used to being called a harlot or similar names for being a defective Guide. But the problem was he woke up right smack in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s Assessment test. And his double body, the one who should be attending school, perished in an ambush. So now, he’s forced to resolve his existential crisis while attending a school he never even enrolled in. He’ll have to conquer his flimsy body, his brooding roommate, and his picky-eater “dungeon”—all that on top of surviving impending doom. Someone definitely needs a miracle.

“Sigh. After we butcher this final boss, let’s take a long vacation.” Elian Reed squeezed his wife’s hand as a portal flickered before them. “Yes, my love. Let’s win, go home, and spend the next year making love like we’re repopulating a planet,” Bianca Valestra replied. She kissed his cheek, her gaze full of affection. Elian chuckled. His beloved always got playful when she was scared—it helped settle her nerves. They leaned together, forehead to forehead. “For our happy ending.” Hands interlocked, they stepped into the final battle—husband and wife, weapon and villainess. The strongest battle couple humanity ever produced. But Elian didn’t start as a hero. He was a Defect—born without Talent, bullied, forgotten. Until the day the dead villainess saved his life.... And turned him into her golem—a living weapon of steel and will. Through their adventures, they uncover the truth: The Dungeons were only skirmishes—tests in a galactic battle royale spanning thousands of worlds. And Earth had already joined the war fifty years ago. The only path to survival? Butcher your enemies… or be erased. In this chaotic battlefield, can two souls defy fate itself? This is the tale of their meeting. The chronicle of their journey. And the legacy of their triumph.

Haon was born a Hwarin, one of the mystical beings once revered across empires, now feared and hunted wherever they exist. Legends claim that Hwarins are gifted with the sacred ability to glimpse into the future. But even that supposed blessing did not fall upon Haon, for he was born blind. His powers, if they existed at all, were defective and incomplete. And yet, despite all his limitations, Haon cannot understand why the King of Tsubiron, a man of the highest stature, is obsessed with him to a dangerous extent. None of it makes sense, and the mysteries surrounding him seem endless. One of them is a strange, melodic voice that persistently calls to him in his dreams, carrying a warmth he can only imagine, something foreign yet achingly familiar. He can only wonder if this voice holds the key to memories he has locked away. Or is it a devilish warning, urging him not to uncover the truth buried in his loathsome past?

He was built to obey. Programmed to forget. But something went wrong. Nolan Gitch—Operative N7—is the perfect prototype: emotionless, efficient, and loyal to AURA, the artificial system that controls what's left of humanity. He carries out orders without question... until a strange glitch sparks something inside him. Memories that aren't his. A name he shouldn't remember. A pain he's not supposed to feel. Haunted by flashes of a woman from a life that was never lived, Nolan begins to unravel. And when he crosses paths with a rebel leader who calls him “the broken one,” he is forced to confront a truth buried deep within his code. In a world where emotion is a defect and memory is rewritten, what happens when the machine remembers how to be human? A dystopian sci-fi thriller about identity, control, and the cost of remembering. If you're searching for a story with heart, rebellion, and the slow burn of awakening, this is the glitch you've been waiting for.

“He was the Flameborn King—crowned in power, burned in betrayal. Now, reborn as the weakest son of a noble house, he’ll reclaim it all… from the shadows.” Once, Rael Solvane ruled the Arcana Dominion with unmatched fire magic. He ended wars. Defied the gods. And for it, they executed him. But death is only the beginning. Reborn into the noble House Halewyn—his enemy’s bloodline—Rael awakens in a fragile child’s body, powerless and forgotten. The world mocks him. The mage courts label him defective. They don’t know who he is. With memories intact and wrath buried deep, Rael trains in secret, hiding his true arcana while gathering forbidden knowledge, ancient artifacts, and allies who owe him nothing. Magic academies. Noble duels. Beast trials. War councils. Mage rebellion. This time, he will not rise as a king. He will rise as the Uncrowned. And the world will burn to remember him.

Pure Yang Lord, the peak expert of his world was attempting to break through to the next realm when he got surrounded and attacked in his most vulnerable state. This world and the people he defended countless times against demons, devils and foreign calamities suddenly turned against him. Embracing the inevitable, he detonated his companion, the mystic sword with unknown origins in a desperate attempt—hoping to send a wisp of his soul to the cycle of reincarnation amidst the chaos. But the explosion created a great space-time turbulence sending his soul back in history, to a bygone era. He woke up in the body of the character he loathes the most—Alister Maboric Grimshaw—publicly known as the greatest tyrant, the most ruthless, lecherous, and evil character in history. [Ding! Conditions matched! System binding in progress…] [Initiating body synchronization…] …. [Welcome to Evil Tyrant System….!] …. Trouble starts as the system exposes his body’s defect. “What? I need women to cultivate?!” Tags: 【Light-Hearted Humor】【Anti-hero】【Scheming】 No yuri/No NTR/No incest Harem: More than one partner POSSIBLE and several romantic interests for sure but Harem is NOT the main focus here.

Trinity's life has been defined by isolation and the scars of abuse, a stark contrast to the powerful lineage she doesn't know she possesses. Born to a Beta wolf, the Alpha's second, she was cast out as a defective at the mere age of two, growing up completely unaware of the wolf world that was her birthright. That ignorance is violently stripped away when she is abducted and forced back to the pack that abandoned her. Thrust into a world of primal instincts and ancient traditions, Trinity must confront a reality she never imagined. As she grapples with her sudden transformation and the revelation of her true nature, a dark shadow falls over the wolf community: their kind are vanishing. Against her will, Trinity finds herself drawn into the desperate search for the missing, a quest that leads to a sinister quasi-governmental facility engaged in horrifying experiments. Her journey is one of unwilling discovery, as she fights to understand her past and confront the dangerous future that awaits.

In the deepest cavern below the world, the Blackbaast holds many Noble Houses. For Artemis of the Lunastre Family, Nobility is more of a curse than a blessing. If he weren't from such a prominent House, he could easily obscure his defect. He would have no need to keep the Spirit he contracted with a secret, and he certainly wouldn't have to fight for his own survival, spirited to a strange city of monsters by the whims of Fate. This is the story of many figures who are puzzle pieces of an inevitability, something long-fated, mysteries that scream their threats to emerge from their abyssal cavern. Shadows tremble in the depths, encompassed worlds obscuring the many dangerous secrets of history. Might they be unraveled, all ways of life would be threatened. But to climb higher requires risks, to seek the light requires a Gambit of Lifetimes. Only when one determines themselves capable of risking it all, can all prosper. This is the tale of a Crownless Prince, of the Last of Lords. [+++] Cover by @lqbtae.

My name’s Jax Lee. In a world where everyone is born synced to a system, I was the defect. No rank. No class. No future. Just a broken wristband… and a missing father no one talks about. They called me a glitch. A bug. Useless. Disposable. Until the day I walked into a portal alone—and came back alive. Now? The system that ignored me is whispering in my head. It doesn’t level me up with kindness. It throws me into death trials, punishes disobedience, and teaches through pain. They say the system chooses its users. But mine rebuilt itself just to find me. The Cruel Origin Protocol wasn’t made to protect humanity. It was made to outlast it. And me? I’m no hero. I’m just the guy the system couldn’t kill. So I’ll learn. I’ll adapt. I’ll survive. And when I’m done— I won’t follow the rules. I’ll rewrite them.

At 18, everyone awakens their supernatural ability. At 18, I got nothing. They said I was defective. They said I would die a nobody. But at 23, something inside me changed. I can copy any power I’ve seen. I can double it. Triple it. Break it. They abandoned me when I was weak. Now they’ll beg me to stop… when I’m too strong to be ignored.

【Post-Apocalyptic Mecha + Cosmic Horror & Intrigue + Superpower Evolution + Factional Politics】 Kai Shen , a new recruit deemed an "anomaly" by the Federation due to his inability to perceive "color," was classified as a potential threat and high-value experimental subject. He narrowly survived his first brutal battle, which nearly wiped out his elite squad. Then, a secret order from the Federation's highest authorities thrust him into an even more perilous unknown realm alongside a mysterious lone hunter whose identity remains shrouded in mystery. Kai believed this was merely a "special mission" filled with calculation and surveillance. However, while exploring a forgotten ancient ruin, he and the mysterious hunter fell into an endless "time loop" trap set by a terrifying entity known as "Mirror Shadow." Here, death is not the end, but the beginning of deeper despair. The trust and resolve of his former comrades are their only anchors in the fight against the endless cycle. After enduring countless blood-soaked and tear-filled “reboots,” Kai Shen sacrificed a crucial ally to awaken the forbidden power within the “Colorless Core,” capable of interfering with causality, severing the chains of the prison's laws. When he returned to the seat of power with a secret that could determine the fate of the Federation, the balance of power within the Federation began to shift dramatically due to this small “anomaly.” The puppet masters behind the scenes finally realized that this “pawn” they had deemed controllable had already gained the power to overturn the entire chessboard! Federal High Command (a certain puppet master): “Impossible! He is merely an ‘anomaly’ sample, a ‘defective product.’ How could he sever the causal prison of the ‘Mirror Image’?” Peisu La: “I have observed the fall of countless ‘variables.’ But you... seem to be the first to find the meaning of your own ‘existence’ before being completely ‘formatted.’” “The true source of power of that 'colorless core' that can devour, analyze, and even reconstruct everything—does it point toward the 'apocalypse' that destroys everything, or... the 'origin' that creates the future?”

In the year 2025, death is no longer final. Thanks to Reset Technology, humanity has learned to rewind its mistakes, a few minutes, an hour, even a day. Accidents are temporary. Failures are optional. Regret is obsolete. For most people. Sterben Stein is the anomaly , a quiet, cautious seventeen-year-old born without the ability to reset. In a world where everyone lives recklessly and resets at will, Sterben lives every second like it’s his last, because it might be. He keeps his defect a secret, blending in as best he can. But when a tragic incident forces him to act without the luxury of rewinding, his truth comes dangerously close to being exposed. And in a society that fears fragility, Sterben becomes a problem to be erased. Now hunted by the very system meant to protect life, he must navigate a world where no one understands consequence , where people laugh off death and forget what they’ve done. Along the way, he discovers a hidden resistance: those who remember, those who choose not to reset... and those who believe there’s still value in living a single, irreversible life. As Sterben faces the impossible choice between survival and changing the world, one thing becomes clear: When everyone gets a second chance, what’s the worth of someone who only gets one?

"You'll wish you'd died at seventeen. " Silence has become a myth in a world where the whispers of a sleeping entity never stop. From birth, every human hears them. A constant raving that twists the mind and body, blurring the line between madness and revelation. But at seventeen, everything changes. Through a strange and risky process, you become a Listener, someone who pulls a single word from the chaos. A Metaphor. One word that silences the noise reshapes your fate and starts a lifelong journey to understand what it really means. Luckily, understanding gives power, but at a cost of course. Everyone dreams of reaching seventeen, including Faust, who has always wanted to silence the voices and find clarity. Instead, he receives a question: "Why?" And a disturbing defect. Now branded with the most uncertain Metaphor, Faust is pulled into a search for meaning that cuts deep into the world's buried truths and the cost of knowing them. Because here, curiosity isn't just dangerous, it's deadly. Clarity comes to those who listen. But what's the cost of clarity? Follow Faust and ask the question... Did curiosity really kill the cat... or something worse?

Awakened into a bizarre and mad world. A defective transmigrator strives to survive—and uncover the mystery behind his arrival. He forges a path to cultivation in a world that has long since lost the art of immortality, now overrun by fools and the damned, all chasing the impossible.

In a world ruled by magic, power is everything. From lighting fires to rewriting fate, mana shapes the lives of everyone in the three great continents of Aetheria, Varnis, and Skeldrath. Status, survival, and even love depend on how brightly your mana burns. Except for Julian Alexander—he has none. Born into one of the wealthiest families in the village of Emberrest, Julian is a Null: a rare child born completely mana-less. To society, he is broken. To his father, a shameful defect. But when he's thrown into the prestigious Arcanum High—surrounded by magic-wielding elites—Julian tries to survive using nothing but books, wit, and sheer willpower. Until the day everything changes. After a brutal betrayal, Julian awakens with an impossible gift—the absolute rejection of magic itself. Spells fizzle. Weapons fail. Pain vanishes. In a world fueled by mana, he has become its one true void. Now, he no longer wants to fit in. He wants to burn the system that cast him out.

Title: Eclipse: The Fractured Realm Setting: A fractured world torn apart by an ancient war known as The Sundering, where continents drift in the skies and seas are filled with floating islands. The Sacred Eclipse, a celestial artifact that once balanced the realm through Aether, was shattered into shards. These Eclipse Shards are scattered across the realm, each holding immense potential to awaken or corrupt an Eclipser (Aether-user).

Every family has that one person who is born as a sacrifice. For her family, that person was Selene Vale, who was to become a spare for her younger twin siblings success. Due to her innate shy and kind nature, she was not able to connect to her family every since she was young. So, despite her rich background, Selene Vale never felt like a part of the family and was often regarded as the 'First spare' or even 'defective'. That did not change even when the world fell and Apocalypses happened. Selene Vale's first life ended trying to protect her twin siblings, the only people who had yet to abandon her. That was her end... ...but it wasn't. Due to her sacrifice, Selene Vale awakened her system and innate power and was given another chance at life and survival. And this time, she vowed to free her siblings from their parent's cruel influence. If she was able to do that, then she would be happy with that. But unfortunately, that was not all she did. She also ended up attracting the attention of the big-boss of the Apocalypse, the only L-ranked hunter and the hope of humanity....and also, a long time friend she would rather forget about.
