waking up in a strange country, in a strange house, surrounded by strangers, some of whom want nothing but to kill him, with no memory of who he is and unique abilities he knows nothing about, life couldn't possibly get any more complicated, or could it?

Noah was a nobleman. Born with an empty constitution, he was pretty much useless…Until he realises the World’s Greatest Secret. The verse they were living in— It was a freakin fantasy novel. And the worst part? He was supposed to be the villain. *** “Hehehe— So what? I just have to substitute someone in my place…Yes!” “All I have to do is to hire a Villain.” *** (P/S: No, I do not have a white hair kink—)

[WSA 2025 ENTRY]

In the year 2099, the world stands on the brink of a technological revolution. Maxwell Harrison Carter, a brilliant yet enigmatic tech prodigy, unveils Aetheria—a boundless virtual world powered by cutting-edge VR technology and neural interface systems. But Aetheria is more than just a game; it’s a new reality, a digital empire where power, wealth, and influence transcend borders. Backed by the mysterious Business Domination System (BDS), Maxwell isn't just playing to win—he’s playing to dominate. With missions guiding his path, rewards fueling his empire, and an unshakable vision driving him forward, he begins building a legacy that blurs the line between reality and the virtual realm. As governments, corporations, and shadowy factions move to seize control of Aetheria, Maxwell must navigate corporate espionage, cyber warfare, and political manipulation. With his loyal team by his side—Adrian, Mia, Isabella, Dr. Lin Mei, and Ethan—he pushes the limits of technology, strategy, and ambition. But power comes with a price, and not everyone wants to see Maxwell succeed. With billions of lives, trillions of dollars, and the future of two worlds hanging in the balance, Maxwell must make ruthless decisions to protect his vision and outmaneuver every rival. The question remains: Can one man truly build an empire that bridges the real and the virtual? Aetheria: Rise of the Digital Empire is an epic tale of ambition, technology, and the relentless pursuit of power in a world where the line between game and reality no longer exists. "This isn't just a game. It's the future. And I will control it." — Maxwell Harrison Carter

Since the dawn of time, a godly relic has drifted through the void, watching the birth of universes, witnessing beings who could shatter stars with a flick of their hands, erase galaxies with mere words, and obliterate entire realities with their mastery of the different elements. But after eons of watching, it grew bored. On Earth, Yasuo, a reincarnated demon arts grandmaster now reincarnated as a regular young man, lies bored in his bed, thinking about this world's various confinements. The next day, he opens his eyes only to find himself carrying a "Godly Relic." As someone who wasn't able to use his dark magic on earth, Yasuo could only rely on the "Godly Relic" And his past experiences to travel through countless worlds and spread the entrance of his Holy Land, determined to cultivate and grow stronger. --------------------Rewards-------------------- 30 Power Stones= 1 Bonus Chapter 30 Golden Tickets = 3 Bonus Chapter Castle= 10 Bonus Chapters The bonus chapters will be updated altogether, even if it's 14 chapters at once, on Monday at 00:00 gmt+8 ( Server Time )

After months of extreme weather conditions, everything stopped. Although not for long. A huge door appeared in each of the world's capitals, which was given the name "The Abyss Call." A door that, upon entering, could lead to madness or receive the reward of runic abilities. The world underwent a change behind the door. All the slayers - users of runic abilities - tried to conquer territories, with no one to stop them. And right at this moment, Void, a simple store employee with a hidden past, felt the world coming down on him... "Why has my novel become a reality!?" Now, Void must face the events of his own history... those that even he doesn't know about.

They Weren’t Just Hot Aliens—They Were Beast Men Too. And Now? The Universe Was Breaking Apart. ——————————————————— Hot Alien Lords. An Apocalypse. Strange Universes. A Glitching Storyline. Secrets, Betrayal, and a Fight for Survival. ——————————————————— She was just an overworked, underpaid author who fell asleep mid-chapter—only to wake up as a maid in her own novel. The bad news? She was trapped in the castle of three devastatingly attractive alien lords, brothers whose power could crush her in an instant. The worse news? In a world where females were plain at best, she’d somehow become the most jaw-droppingly gorgeous woman alive. Now, every jealous (and horrifyingly ugly) female wanted her dead, and the lords? They wouldn’t stop looking at her like she was their next meal. Her insider knowledge of the plot should’ve been her golden ticket, but the story? It was glitching. She’d written them as hot aliens who could transform into beasts—snakes, lions, and jaguars, to be exact. But seeing it firsthand? Terrifying. Their movements blurred the line between man and monster, predatory gazes locking onto her with an intensity she never typed into existence. Was this how they’d always been? Or was the world twisting into something else? Then came the real horror. An apocalyptic infection was spreading beyond the castle walls. People were mutating, becoming something... inhuman. The world itself was fracturing, opening doors to unknown universes that were never part of her original draft. One brother craved her like an obsession. Another wanted to break her. And the third? He carried a secret that could destroy everything. Thalina thought the lords would be the only males she’d have to mate with. Now? She wasn’t so sure. Between a castle full of murderous women, the dangerous desire of three alien beastmen, and a storyline spiraling out of her control, survival wasn’t just a goal anymore—it was the only thing keeping her from becoming another twisted piece of the story. Can she escape her own creation, or is she fated to die in a world she never meant to live in?

"I woke up in a fantasy world… only to realize it’s the unfinished novel I wrote, filled with plot holes, overpowered villains, and side characters I never developed. Worse? The protagonist I wrote is out to kill me. Now, I must end my own terrible writing by fixing the story, before it destroys me..." This is the story of Char, the author, as he suddenly enters his own novel, and realizes something - or someone - has been filling in the gaps left in his bad writing. Now, he's nothing more than an extra, unless he can find a way to escape the nightmare of his new reality. [Disclaimer: You might get addicted reading this story.]

Loving you again is a fate I cannot escape. But getting hurt again is something I refuse to endure. After five years apart, Lily never imagined she would cross paths with her ex-lover again. But fate had a cruel way of playing with her life. She and Alger were bound to meet again—not as lovers, but as the woman handpicked by Alger’s parents. They believed she was the only one who could thaw their son’s cold heart. The wounds of the past, long buried, resurfaced once more. The pain and resentment Alger had nearly forgotten came rushing back. He accepted the arranged marriage—not out of love, but out of vengeance. Alger wanted to pull Lily back into his grasp, to make her pay for the past. Can Lily endure Alger’s cruelty? Or will she once again find herself trapped in an unfinished heartbreak?

When Lu Huang woke up as Lidia—the villainess of a cringe-worthy romance novel—she was determined not to let the story play out like the dumpster fire it was written to be. Nope. Dying at the hands of the Alpha King after being falsely accused, publicly humiliated, and manipulated into madness? Yeah, that’s not on her to-do list. Armed with a sharp tongue that could flay egos, the street smarts of a broke college grad, and the petty audacity of someone with nothing left to lose, Lidia decides she was ripping up the script. Holier-than-thou saintesses? Screw ’em. Self-righteous alphas? They can eat dirt. If this world insists on casting her as the villain, she’s going to own it—on her terms. One chaotic scheme at a time, Lidia’s ready to rewrite her fate—and if she has to break a few rules (and maybe some noses) to do it, so be it. Villainesses don’t play nice, and Lidia is just getting started.

Resonance, when the world finally hears its own echo, will it resound in harmony or fade into a hollow monotone?

You can have a chat with me on discord. https://discord.gg/fTZRHuY4mX Mark Eisner is the greatest example of a failure. Unable to get his dream job, he resorts to writing a story, a story close to his heart, a story in which he expressed himself to the fullest. It was the delusional universe he created for himself. Unable to grasp the attention of readers, his book was deemed a failure as well. Heartbroken after suffering his crushing fate, Mark commits suicide, uttering his last words; proclaiming the end of his story. But was this the end of his story? Hell Nah! He is far from being dead. He finds himself, astonishingly, still possessing his consciousness, even though his existence is formless. What he then sees is unbelievable. The hero he created, the hero "he only" loved, the hero that reflected himself... His own protagonist. Reincarnated as the system of the hero of his own novel, Mark undergoes an epic journey with his unanticipated creation, helping him throughout, knowing all about his predicaments. There are a few rules to him - 1. RELAY ONLY REQUIRED MESSAGE TO THE PLAYER 2. DROP DESIGNATED REWARDS 3. EXPEL THE PLAYER IF PLAUSIBILITY REACHES LIMITS But.... Is that all? Does he really thinks events will take place just as he layed them? . . . Is he really that Omniscient ? Is he the only one.... . . .

Yuto Kisaragi was once an aspiring author who poured years of his life into writing Eclipsing Fate, a web novel he never finished. But after countless nights of struggle and obscurity, he abandoned his work—leaving its characters and world incomplete. One night, he receives a strange notification: [Your story, Eclipsing Fate, has begun its final chapter.] Before he can react, reality twists, and he awakens inside the very world he created. But something is wrong. The protagonist is missing. The characters are acting unpredictably. And the story is moving forward without him as the author. Branded as a nameless background character, Yuto quickly discovers a hidden ability: [Skill Unlocked: Author’s Perspective] • Can perceive the world as a written narrative. • Can glimpse “drafts” of alternate possibilities. • Can edit minor details at a cost. To escape this unraveling reality, Yuto must navigate his own unfinished story, uncover the mystery behind the missing protagonist, and reclaim his role as the true author. But as his characters begin to question their existence and seek to defy their fates, Yuto is forced to confront an impossible question: Is it his right to control their destinies… or should he let them rewrite their own fate?

Lucas Yohan, originally born in a world filled with magic and mana, gets transmigrated for the second time into an advanced interstellar world that blends strange magic and technology in ways he never thought could be possible. Upon awakening, he discovers that his transmigrations were no coincidences and is now in possession of the Crafts-God System, a system dedicated to creating a new successor to the deceased Crafts-God, who is an existence with the ability to create anything and everything. Lucas decides to fulfill the goal of the system and become the new Crafts-God, but he's faced with an incredulous challenge; he can't learn magic. @@@@@@@@@ Special Note: The system might appear as controling in the first few chapters, but don't let this get to you.

Lyle Vance was once an author, the mastermind behind a classic hero’s journey—a tale of valor, prophecy, and the destined battle against the Demon King. But when he wakes up inside his own novel, not as the hero, nor the villain, but as a nameless extra, his carefully crafted world becomes his new reality. Armed with two powerful cheats—his knowledge of the future and a mysterious book that turns written words into reality—Lyle treads carefully. But there’s a catch: using the book drains an absurd amount of mana, making even the smallest change a costly gamble. Choosing to remain hidden, he dons the mask of a fool—an unremarkable background character who no one would suspect. While the hero embarks on his fated journey, Lyle sets his own plans in motion, gathering wealth, strength, and influence from the shadows. His goal is simple: ensure the Demon King’s defeat so he can retire in peace. But as he manipulates the world from behind the scenes, fate proves to be more unpredictable than even an author could foresee…

Akira Tsukihara was a romance author who despised love. Though she wrote best-selling novels filled with idealistic romance, she harbored nothing but contempt for the genre and the readers who adored it. Love, in her eyes, was a lie—an illusion that blinded people from the true forces of the world: power, betrayal, and ambition. One night, in a fit of frustration, she cursed love itself... and woke up trapped inside one of her own stories. Reborn as Aira, a nameless peasant girl in the Kingdom of Seraphis—a world she had meticulously crafted—Akira quickly realizes that reincarnation isn’t the fantasy dream she had written about. She isn’t a noble, a princess, or a heroine blessed with beauty and power. She is a nobody. A commoner, struggling to survive in the harsh realities of the medieval world she had once designed as a mere backdrop for her grand romances. As Aira, she faces starvation, endless labor, and the crushing weight of insignificance. But Akira was never one to accept fate. If she couldn’t escape this world, she would rewrite the story on her own terms. She would carve her name into history—not as the lovestruck heroine of a cliché romance, but as the mastermind who would bend the world to her will. In a land ruled by noble bloodlines and political schemes, where the romance tropes she once loathed play out before her eyes, Aira sets her sights on one goal: destroying the very ideals of love that had imprisoned her in this wretched world. Even if it means becoming the villain of her own story.

Julius Vaelorian was never meant to be the main character. Before waking up in this world, he was just an overworked web novel author struggling to finish his own story. But after dying in an accident, he finds himself reincarnated—not as the hero, but as Julius, a minor villain doomed to die at the hands of the protagonist. He refuses to accept that fate. Julius will do whatever it takes to survive—even if it means sacrificing the very thing that makes him human.

What if you woke up one day, not as yourself, but as someone entirely unknown? What if the world around you felt eerily familiar—crafted from the very stories you once wrote? What if you were nothing more than an extra, a name never meant to be remembered, destined to fade into obscurity? Would you accept this fate? Or would you defy it, clawing your way towards something greater? –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Asher Gradivus wasn’t supposed to matter.

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

Kair is a freshman in college studying neuroscience. Coincidentally, he is also a renowned author, one of his most famous works being the novel 'Chaos'. One day, Kair gets caught up in a fatal car accident. He regains his consciousness in a place he doesn't recognize. Strangely, it shares a lot of resemblance to his prior novel, which he doesn't pay any mind too. One thing however keeps nagging at Kair; did he really die, or is this all just a dream? Did he get reincarnated? What in god's name is going on? --- On one dimensional plane, a God opens his eyes. On another plane, a majestic beast wakens from its slumber. Every galactically powerful being in the universe opens its eyes, glancing downwards to the bottom ranks of the dimensional ladder. They did not know how, nor did they know when. All they knew, was that the Revenant Portal had moved. As if in mutual understanding, every being powerful enough to understand the twists of fate marked this point in time as one of the most crucial turning points in the history of the universe. However, only a single question remained in their incomprehensibly vast minds; why had the gate made its move after being inactive for half of the universe's existence?

SHADOW OVER THE FINAL LINE The world crumbles beneath the pen of a cynical, brilliant writer whose drafts become reality. .oOo. In a flash, the world transformed into an arena. A mysterious System forces trials upon humanity, while enigmatic Constellations watch from above, wagering on their lives.

Three rejections. Three shattered dreams. That was Layla’s reality, all because she was different—a half-shifter in a world obsessed with purity. Ostracized, shunned, and finally sold off like a pawn to the most feared ruler alive—the Lycan King. He was ruthless, a king with a graveyard of brides, each one a ghostly reminder of a fate worse than death. Layla loathed him. Hated the way his gaze cold and fathomless, held no warmth for her. Hated how his touch, both thrilling and terrifying, sent an uninvited chill down her spine. --- “I hate you!” I screamed, hands clenched so tight my knuckles ached. He sighed, a smirk curling at the edge of his lips, his tone mocking as he closed his book with a deliberate snap. “Stressed, are we?” he asked, strolling toward me, each step reminding me exactly who held the power here. “Lucky for you,” he drawled, rolling up his sleeves as he stopped just inches away, “I know exactly 70 ways to ease those nerves.” His fingers brushed my cheek, a touch that seemed to burn into my skin. “The first… a hug.” His voice dropped to a rough whisper as he leaned in, breath hot against my ear. “And the rest... well, that's 69? what do you say about that?" I swallowed hard, my heart thudding wildly as he tilted his head, waiting for me to react, that insufferable smirk still in place. “What’s the matter, darling?” he murmured, a taunt lingering in his gaze. --- A Dangerous Obsession Can she resist the pull, or will she dance into the flames of her own destruction? A dark dive into obsession, raw need, and the razor’s edge between desire and devastation. --- LYCAN KING CASSIAN I will tear her apart piece by piece, feeding the wildfire that grips her with each shuddered breath. Like air to flame, I’ll claim every inch, drawing heat from her skin until it sinks into her bones. Her pulse will race under my hands, her breaths shallow, pleading. Her eyes may scream, but her lips will still murmur my name. That first taste of fear will only feed something deeper—a need that burns through her veins, molten and fierce. And just when she’s too far gone to turn back, I’ll twist the knife, giving her the pain she’s learned to crave. She’ll be the moth to my flame, helpless against the very thing that will consume her.
