Returned Player

In a world where empires rise and fall, one nation's legacy is woven with the echoes of a single, extraordinary figure-the Founder. His teachings built a land of unity and hope, but as centuries passed, ambition and division began to fray the bonds he had forged. Now, in a kingdom teetering on the edge of ruin, a child is born on the outskirts of its crumbling glory.

This is a tale of perseverance and reclamation, where the weight of the past collides with the uncertainty of the future. As the shadows of betrayal and ambition threaten to consume all, one question remains: can the heart of a nation be rebuilt when its very soul is forgotten? All Rights Reserved

One ordinary day, a mysterious system suddenly appears in the minds of every human on Earth—a notification that pops out of nowhere, declaring them as "Players." Panic grips the world as people struggle to understand the meaning behind it. The government dismisses the threat, failing to take action against what seems like a distant, harmless anomaly.

He effortlessly defeats the dungeon boss with one strike of his sword, sealing its gate. For this, he is named Player One. His overwhelming strength sparks hope around the world, proving that the system can be used to fight back. Yet his identity still remains a mystery after he suddenly vanishes from the public eye. In a world where Players fight for survival, will Player One remain in the shadows, or will he become the unstoppable force that saves humanity?

"Love," they say, "sometimes needs another shot because it wasn't quite ready the first time." Half a decade ago, like a hurricane's surprise visit, she knocked on her grandfather's door. Desperation painted her face as she begged for help to flee the country, and the reason was crystal clear—escape from a lover who had been breaking not just her heart, but their child's future too. Ririna had had enough, her unrequited love too costly to bear. She left to shield her child from the labyrinthine world of the underworld. Eli, a man as shrewd as they come, had the world at his feet, what with being the heir apparent to the underworld and a master of corporations. He found his thrill in financial victories, stock market domination being his ultimate conquest. A childhood resolution dictated he would never kneel before a woman or follow his father's shadow. Or so he believed, until Ririna vanished, taking his heart along for the ride. But lo and behold, the story twists again—she reenters the stage, determined to unravel the mysteries surrounding her mother's accidental demise. For Eli, this is the opening he's waited for, a chance to weave her back into his life. Yet, danger and conspiracies dog their steps, enemies lurking in the shadows with nefarious plans. The tango between life and death plays on, and amidst it all, parenting seems an unwise endeavor. Eli decides to eliminate threats before embarking on family life with Ririna. Yet, in the grand tapestry of fate, a twist waits—a child he never knew existed now seeks his attention. Will this new connection be a chink in his armor, or the mighty force that guides them forward? Time will be the judge, weaving its own brand of suspense into this intricate tale. 20 Powerstones = EXTRA Chapter

Her grieving mother forced Leticia to adopt Dexter’s identity, believing that it was her male child that survived, and to keep the peace, her father went along with the lie. Leticia buried her true self to play the part of the son they lost, but now, as an adult, the weight of this deception is crushing her. Desperate for freedom and stability, she applies for a job at a high-profile company. There’s just one complication—her potential employer, Justin, is a charming but notorious playboy and the man she nearly had a one-night stand with during one of her rare moments of being herself. Horrified that he might recognize her, Leticia secures the position by stepping back into the safety of her “Dexter” persona. As "Dexter," Leticia is thrust into a precarious balancing act. Her growing bond with Justin forces her to confront feelings she can’t explore without exposing her secret.

As the twelve nations of Velandor grow stronger, so too does their hunger for power. The once-unshakable unity fostered by the Velandor Constitution begins to crumble, and the Ancestral Palace, led by Lord Gideon Leondell, struggles to maintain control. Tensions rise as the balance of power and peace that has long defined the empire teeters on the edge of collapse. In the midst of this turmoil, the legendary ancestor of the Leondell family mysteriously returns, wielding the ancient authority of the Constitution to restore order. Yet, not all welcome this resurgence of power. Coalitions of defiance and resistance form, threatening to shatter the fragile peace. With alliances unraveling and nations on the brink of war, the return of the ancestor may either be Velandor's salvation—or the spark that ignites its downfall. "The Ancestor Has Returned" is a tale of political intrigue, ancient legacies, and the fierce battle to preserve peace in a world on the verge of chaos.

A man who has chosen a different, slower path. Most active players who haven't given up on completing the game go to higher floors soon after they get unlocked, if not immediately.

And so, he decides to stay and do what he has always loved to do in video games, explore and discover. To embark on an epic adventure. Or maybe he was simply scared in the early stages of the game. This is a deadly game after all, one in which millions are trapped.

Being thrown into the game-world of [Call of the Black Magicians], Adam was forced to survive with no prior information. Except for his memories of the Game-World and his name, he did not have any memories of his previous life. But fret not, even though the Game-World had many perils and was on the verge of extinction at every next step, it also had its beauty and magic, one to die for. With the authority of [Player], he could save and restart until he achieved his desired result.  He could learn skills of the ‘NPCs’ and achieve the results like the ‘Players.’  He could literally solo the entire game world to achieve his desired results. Whether he wants to save the world or destroy it, he could do it… as many times as he wishes. Even the [Black Magicians] won’t be able to do anything about it… probably. But was it all there was to it? [Beta Version 0.1 will begin in 6 Months: 29 days: 23 Hours!] I guess not… … Description: In the World of Zarraf, their lives Gods, not all Gods are good and certainly none are without motives.  They rule the world’s 7 nations:  The Nation of Light and Sun The Nation of Water The Nation of Fire The Nation of Life The Nation of Earth The Nation of Moon The Nation of Wind Each ruled by a goddess that has their own stance in their ruling.  But that is only the first page of this world. The second page colors the Ancient Gods of Corruption, Rage, Curse, Death and Hate. The third belongs the Seven Sins’ Incarnations that are ready to succeed the Ancient Gods. The Fourth is of the Witches who stand against all Gods equally. And the Final Page colors the [Immortals] or otherwise known as [Players] that will be summoned to bring Chaos to this world. A World that was meant to be destroyed. Such is the fate of the world of Zarraf, as powers beyond the realm of mortals threaten the dynamic equilibrium of their existence. In the end, the world was prophesied to be destroyed by one cause or another. Nothing could prevent looming destruction… Or so... It was supposed to happen… … Hey, Author here to give a quick glance at a couple of things that are normally asked. Harem? Yes Romance? Yes System? Obviously Smut? Oh yes! Adventure RPG? Yes. Power Creeping? Not really. Overpowered? Depends on how you see it Smart MC? I guess so.  Wise MC? Yes Something you need to know before you read The MC has the ability to [Save] a point (there are some conditions), with which he can return in time. So basically, he is an immortal. Though that doesn’t make him invincible from the start, rather he grows by making correct choices. The World is dynamic and pretty much anything can happen anytime. (It’s just my way of saying that there will be twists… pretty much unexpected ones as well).  And then there will be solutions to those unexpected situations as well, depending upon the absurdity of it. (I won’t have any more plot armor since I gave him a pretty big buff of immortality, so everything will be connected and won’t just happen by luck. Everything will be cleared by the end of an arc, so you need to be patient before deciding on it.) It has a mix of everything. Thriller, Adventure, Action, Smut, Romance, Slice of Life, etc. so there is that as well. ……. [Mature Warning: This Novel Contains R-18 Content!] https://discord.gg/2swHXduWg3
