Li Xue, a modern-day girl, found herself inexplicably transported back in time. Even worse—she was now in a harem novel! Not one of the dazzling heroine or even the cunning villainess—she was a maid. “At least I’m a side character,” Li Xue muttered, relief washing over her as she sprawled lazily on the soft bed. “I’ll just keep my head down, avoid all the drama, and live quietly. No one notices the maid.” But just as she closed her eyes, ready to embrace her peaceful insignificance, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in her mind. System: Initializing... Analyzing Host’s Role and Life Span... Notification to Host: You will die in Chapter Four. Li Xue froze, her entire body going rigid. “W-what?!” she stammered, her voice shaking. “This has to be a mistake! I’m just a maid!” System: Host’s death is a pivotal plot device. Without it, the story cannot progress. Li Xue’s stomach twisted. She was cannon fodder, the throwaway sacrifice to fuel someone else’s drama. System: If Host wishes to return to her original world, full cooperation with the system is required. Her heart pounded in her chest as icy dread gripped her. "Cooperate? With what? I'LL DIE, AGAIN!" System: Rewrite the story. Survive the narrative. Change your fate.

In a world where reality and the virtual blur together, Aryan Kapoor—a quiet, introverted game developer—finds himself thrust into the very game he created. Struggling with self-doubt and an overwhelming sense of insignificance, Aryan never expected his life to change until the day a glitch in his code transports him into Worlds Beyond, his own game. But this is no ordinary game. Trapped in the body of an NPC, a mere lowly merchant in the bustling town of Istrath, Aryan must navigate this strange new reality where every action has consequences. With only his knowledge of the game’s mechanics and the eerie sense that something is off, he must stay low, manipulate the world around him, and uncover the dark secrets hidden within the game. As he maneuvers through dangerous quests, mysterious characters, and a web of lies, Aryan’s greatest challenge will be to confront the ultimate question: Why was he brought here, and who—or what—is controlling his fate? In a world where power is everything, Aryan is determined to use his wits to survive. But can he outsmart the game? Or will the game outsmart him?

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.

Adam was once an ordinary gamer, spending endless nights mastering "RO Online," a forgotten, poorly-rated game. Despite its lackluster graphics and dwindling player base, Adam pushed through every level, defeated every boss, and claimed victory—only to delete his account out of frustration, thinking it all meaningless. Two months later, everything changed. The game relaunched in a revolutionary AR-integrated format, connecting directly to the real world. Its in-game currency merged with real-world finances, creating a new economy where gamers rose to unimaginable wealth. As the game evolved further, its powers began blending with reality itself—turning players into modern-day heroes and rulers. But Adam, with his deleted account, could only watch from the sidelines, struggling to reclaim his former glory. Betrayed by friends, robbed by corporations, and crushed by his own regrets, his journey ended tragically in an accident caused by a drunk player abusing their newfound powers. However, fate wasn't finished with Adam. Waking up ten years in the past—the very day he deleted his account—he now knows the future of the game and the immense potential it holds. With his memories intact and a second chance at life, Adam logs back in and is shocked to discover an unprecedented reward: the Administrative Class, granted for being the only player to fully clear the game before its relaunch. Now, Adam holds the power to bend the game’s reality to his will. Rules, limitations, and even the game’s own mechanics are his to control. But his abilities come with limits—and enemies. Corporations, rival players, and a corrupted system threaten to exploit the game’s integration into reality. This time, Adam isn't just playing to survive. He's playing to dominate. With his Administrative Class, he’ll rewrite the rules of the game—and reality itself. Tags - R18, Adult-Content, Action, Adventure, Romance, Kingdom-building, wars...etc.

Lin Ziyin, modern day mechanical professor especially hired by the school, had the potential for great achievement in her field. However, due to family reasons, she could only treat her mechanical research and teaching as a secondary job, pouring all her energy into the farm and the food business before. Despite her low-key approach, she was unable to suppress her sister's rage, and a furious car crash sent her straight to ancient times. Indeed, she had excellent character, so why did the heavens send her to the sparsely populated Northern Land. Known as the death zone, those who were banished to this borderland would spend their lives and perish there. However, Lin Ziyin was quite satisfied with her own identity. Even if she had lost the protection of her parents, she still had the protection of her siblings and grandfather. Of course, she also had her younger brother and nephew at home who needed her protection. This abundance of familial love was enough to compensate for the hardships caused by poverty at home. Poverty, she wasn't afraid of, as she had experience in farming. With large swathes of uncultivated land, the Northern Land was practically custom-made for her. The heavy workload didn't matter either, she was proficient in designing all kinds of small tools. Whether it was the emperor's absurdity, not providing aid to the border king, or the shameless Tatars that would rob them frequently, none of these posed a problem for her. She could think of solutions for everything. It wasn't uncommon for the border king to tell everyone how lucky he was to have married such a wonderful queen!

Zhao Yu came to the deserted planet to build a base, create an underground city and hide in it. Worried about the threat from the unknown civilization, Zhao Yu dug out a small half of the planet and built star destroyer cannons capable of destroying the planet, as well as tens of thousands of fully intelligent mechanical dogs in various forms. The defensive robotic dog, the Gate God, would disguise itself as a small mountain and fortify around the base. Detection and gathering robot dog - Tsotan, would disguise as a rolling stone and wander around the planet to collect useful resources. Combat robot dog - Nezha, would disguise as a crater, scattered around the base, ready to be able to attack the enemies that may come. Around the base, they were ready to attack the enemies that might come. On this day, his gathering robot dog - Tsotan, dragged back a spaceship. It captured three alien creatures, claiming to be from Earth. Zhao Yu was confused. "Didn't I travel to the deep space of the universe? How come I'm on the back of the moon and being treated as an alien by humans?"

When the world became a landscape for a game, human beings all became dolls who no longer moved nor breathed, frozen like items on display in a shelf. In the beginning, Bai Youwei thought this was an alien prank. Nobody knew why humans suddenly became dolls. That was until they were all gathered together and sucked into a bright fog before being greeted by a mechanical voice, "Ding! Welcome to the Game of Dolls! The rules are as follows: 1. Refusing to play the game will result in dollification! 2. Failure to beat the game will result in dollification! 3. Beating the game to win a doll!" Bai Youwei walks into the embrace of Shen Mo trembling. "I'm scared, I'm just a weak little girl..." Shen Mo takes her hand, places it on his abs and says, "Now you don't have to be scared anymore!" The game systems starts ringing in the background, "Alert! Alert! Please respect the game and focus! No dating inside the game!" This is a story of how an intelligent and calm young lady works with a boy with nothing but a hot bod to beat the impossible Game of Dolls!

In a world where the art of traditional smithing was all but forgotten, Hyun-soo was a legend. A master blacksmith and craftsman, he could create weapons and artifacts that weren’t just breathtakingly beautiful but imbued with unparalleled power. Yet, his glory came to an abrupt halt when a tragic accident in his forge changed everything. His hands—once instruments of art and magic—were ruined.

Hyun-soo became a shadow of the man he once was, trapped in silence and despair. Until one day, a miracle of modern times knocked on his door. The Orion a newly released virtual reality game—promised a boundless world of adventure. Within it, players could become anything they desired: legendary heroes, fearless explorers, or even rulers of vast kingdoms. But for Hyun-soo, it promised something far greater: a chance to forge again. The first time he entered the world of Orion, the system greeted him with its cold, mechanical messages [Artifact Can't Be Repaired.] Hyun-soo raised an eyebrow, scoffing. Ares operated on strict logic—level caps, predefined game rules, and automated tools. But Hyun-soo saw these constraints for what they were: minor hurdles. His lifetime of experience as a true craftsman had taught him that artistry transcended mere systems. He quickly realized that the game’s mechanics didn’t truly understand the essence of smithing. Armed with his expertise, he began to defy those limits, creating legendary items that even the highest-level players could only dream of wielding. Hyun-soo, the genius blacksmith, had returned—and this time, he was forging a future beyond anyone’s wildest imagination.

Rex was just another slave in the corporate machine, a faceless office worker under the shadow of one of the galaxy's powerful megacorps. His life was predictable and dull, an endless cycle of meaningless reports and fluorescent-lit monotony. That was, until that day.... When a new world was discovered on the outskirts of the galaxy, Rex, like countless other low-ranking employees, found himself dragged into a contract clause he’d barely skimmed years ago. The megacorp ordered him and his coworkers to pack their lives into a transport pod and leave for the unexplored planet. Their mission? Establish a colony. Mine resources. Make the company richer. There was no choice, refusing meant ruin. At first, everything seemed manageable. The days were grueling, the nights cold, but progress was steady. The colony was coming to life. Until the excavation team struck something. No one knew what it was at first, a buried hive, a forgotten ecosystem, or something ancient and dangerous. Whatever it was, it unleashed hell. Swarms of enormous, chittering creatures erupted from the ground, their jagged bodies blotting out the sky. The colony fell into chaos. Screams echoed through the air as the bugs tore through everything in their path, walls, machines, and people. Rex barely survived. Bloodied, broken, and pinned beneath the rubble, he should have died there. But in the pitch-black silence of his fading consciousness, a voice spoke to him. Cold. Mechanical. Otherworldly. "Do you wish to live?" When Rex woke, he was no longer the man he’d been. His body was no longer human flesh and bone but something far more alien. His skin shimmered with living metal, his mind infused with the power of Cleo, a mysterious AI from a long-extinct, robotic race known as the Kaelzars. Cleo’s presence pulsed through his thoughts, guiding him and transforming him. He wasn’t just alive. He was reborn. But survival came at a price. Rex was no longer a pawn of the megacorp; he was something more dangerous, something they couldn’t control. As Cleo’s intentions began to reveal themselves, Rex found himself standing on the precipice of war, not just with the bugs but with forces far greater than he could have imagined. This was the beginning of a journey through blood-soaked battlefields and treacherous alliances. Along the way, Rex would encounter allies, brilliant, flawed, and unpredictable, and enemies whose ambitions were as sharp as their blades. These weren’t disposable foes, easily crushed by an overpowered hero. They were cunning, relentless, and human in the most terrifying ways. But then again, in war, who can truly be called a villain?

Upon arrival, each person is granted an initial territory to recruit units and strengthen their domain. “I’m doomed!

Call it petty or perhaps foolish, if you will, but to Lauren, her small revenge became the last saving straw in her drowning life. Betrayed by her own family, who had her incarcerated for a crime committed by her older sister, Lauren wanted to end her life when they also went ahead and disowned her after her release from prison. So as a coping mechanism, Lauren made it her life mission to teach her family a small lesson by denying her sister, Laura, the joy of being with the only man that she has ever loved as a little token of payment for all that she had to endure from them. For years, Lauren lay in wait as she worked as a bar hostess and planned her simple but well-elaborated revenge against her parents' "golden child." But finding out that she was pregnant with another man's baby not so long after the wedding was never part of her plans.  So Lauren knew then that it was time to draw the curtains closed before her "husband" finds out that he has been duped. She needs to RUN! So what happens when this said husband too has no intention of letting her get away with this scot-free and intends to find his "fake" wife and make sure that she pays for her deception? What happens then when she realises that the man that she has been searching for is none other than the very husband that she has been running away from? Will she go and claim him back, or will she continue to let her sister be with him?

Imagine a shonen sports story. But, it’s not about baseball or soccer. No, this one is about playing a MOBA video game! And no, it’s neither League of Legends nor DotA. A BRAND NEW ORIGINAL MOBA, the one MOBA to rule them all - Classmancers! The game has become so big, that even schools recognize it as a sport. They even allow students to participate in Classmancers clubs and compete against other schools! Who will be the one going to nationals!? ------------------------------------- For Yuel, a team sport is like a chessboard that comes to life. There’s no greater fun than deconstructing every opponent and predicting twenty of their moves in advance. And, Classmancers is the ideal stage for such psychological warfare, for it’s a sport in which game theory reigns supreme. At least, usually, it does. There are also goofs like Lars, who got -200 IQ, yet boast godlike mechanical skill that triumphs against all odds. He’s like your typical OPMC which a cheat, except the cheat does nothing for his intellect. Yuel and Lars are like water and fire. In other words, 100% compatible! That’s why they form an unlikely duo and set out to dominate Classmancers’ competitive scene! However, to challenge their OPness, the two will run into rivals who are just as OP! Some of them will turn their teammates immune to Yuel’s psychological attacks, while others will redirect Lars’s almighty strength against himself. In this harsh environment, the two will keep struggling, struggling, and struggling some more, following their promise to reach the pro scene. ------------------------------------- NOTE: Since the site doesn't support italics yet, I'll be using [text] tags for thoughts in this version of the story.

In a galaxy teetering on the brink of annihilation, 17-year-old mechanic Liora Veylan discovers she is no ordinary girl from the mining planet Darvos—she is a Starborn, a descendant of an ancient race tied to the energy of dying stars. With the galaxy's fate in her hands, Liora must confront her dormant powers and a prophecy that foretells her as either its savior or its destroyer. Guided by the spectral presence of Kyren Jhal, the last of the Starborn Guardians, Liora embarks on a perilous journey across the stars. Pursued by the relentless Shade Emperor and his vast Imperial forces, Liora allies with a ragtag team of misfits: the skeptical smuggler Kade, the enigmatic scientist Dr. Myral Dax, and the stoic ex-soldier Tharn Kor. Together, they unravel ancient secrets, face unimaginable dangers, and ignite the forgotten call of the Starborn remnants. As Liora grapples with her destiny, the Shade Emperor accelerates his quest for the Celestial Nexus, a cosmic convergence capable of reshaping existence itself. The struggle between light and darkness unfolds amidst breathtaking worlds, shadowed betrayals, and the ever-present question: Can Liora forge her own path, or is she doomed to fulfill a destiny she cannot escape? "The Starborn Legacy" is a gripping tale of cosmic battles, ancient legacies, and the enduring power of choice in the face of destiny.
