Lui Ming died at 26. Not tragically heroic. Not beautifully poetic. Just… dead. A car accident, a blank expression, and no last words. Born with alexithymia, Lui Ming never quite figured out emotions—his or anyone else’s. Smiling at funerals? Accidentally. Crying during sitcoms? Never happened. Doctors called him emotionally detached. His aunt called him “a misunderstood sweetie.” Strangers just called security. But heaven, in its infinite sarcasm, gave him a second chance. Waking up in a cultivation world where people fly on swords and explode from spicy qi, Lui Ming finds himself in the body of a disgraced young noble—abandoned by his family, hated by the servants, and gifted with severe OCD. The original owner was one tantrum away from being assassinated. And Lui Ming, who just wanted to take naps in peace, realizes something quickly: He has no plot armor. No golden finger. No system. Just his medical degree, a blank face, and tea cups that must be aligned. To survive, he needs to cling to a powerful golden thigh. But there’s just one tiny issue. He has no idea how to blend in.

Now she must stick to her neighbor, Jaccob Fillion, the second most popular guy in school until his injury is healed. It's only for a couple of months. Nothing will change the way she feels about him, right?

In a world where power is bought, sold, and stolen, one man redefines the rules—by making people believe him. Not with magic. Not with force. With something far more dangerous: conviction. He's already dead. He says so. And he lives every second like it's extra credit on his legacy. From corrupt cities to global syndicates, from hackers to heiresses, from killers to kings—everyone has something to lose. And when he speaks, they listen. Because deep down, they already agree with him. And that's when it begins.

‘Heavenly Demon’ Baek Joong-Hyuk opens his eyes as the eldest son of the Dimitry family. Known as the fool of the Dimitry family, pushed over by the second son. The world’s opinion is irrelevant. ‘Heavenly Demon’, no, Roman Dimitry, cannot live a normal life. OP ‘Heavenly Demon’ fantasy!

I was just another guy on Earth — broke, jobless, and bored. Then I woke up in a different world… …kneeling before the Empire’s most dangerous woman. Princess Asthia. Beautiful. Cunning. Untouchable. And now I’m her personal bodyguard. There's just one problem. A system popped into my head the moment I swore my oath: [Absolute Loyalty Pact Activated] - Any direct command from the Princess must be obeyed. - Disobedience results in pain, punishment… or death. - Obedience rewards EXP, skills, and system perks. At first, it was simple: guard her. Serve her. Kill for her. But then her orders changed. “Undress me.” “Join me in bed.” “Make me forget I’m royalty tonight.” Now I’m caught between survival and seduction, loyalty and desire.

If I had known I’d be possessed by the game… I only wish it had been a story where I was allowed to live. --- Discord: https://discord.gg/ RXCj5fcp3U

Ren Amaki, a struggling webnovelist, unexpectedly dies after publishing the final chapter of his beloved fantasy series, The Veil of Aethel. His only consistent reader, a passionate commenter, leaves a heartfelt final message expressing sadness that the story is over and wishing she could live in its world. A mysterious power grants that wish, but with a twist. Ren awakens, reborn as "The Chronicler," in a world that is his novel, The Veil of Aethel, but it's fundamentally altered. The characters, plotlines, and even the laws of the world are different from what he meticulously wrote. Adding to his confusion is Aria, a quirky, chatty "Author System" voice in his head. Ren soon discovers Aria is none other than his loyal reader, now manifested in a pseudo-physical, undeniably cute, and fiercely possessive form. Unbeknownst to her, she's unknowingly responsible for reshaping his entire world with her deeply held visions and desires for the story. Armed with his unique Echo Resonance powers (the ability to manipulate and perceive through sound) and saddled with Aria's unpredictable, chaotic narrative "nudges," Ren must now navigate his own warped creation. Together, this unlikely author-and-reader duo embarks on a journey to understand what happened, untangle the consequences of these changes, and deal with the increasingly bizarre threats that emerge. All while Ren grapples with the realization that the world-shaping force interfering with his story (and his life!) might just be the cutest, most unreliable companion he's ever had.

Asher never liked following the rules. In his old world, he was just a regular guy, stuck with the same boring life and no real power. But when he got thrown into a new world, he thought things would finally be different. Instead, he became an extra. Just another background character with no special abilities, no status. It pissed him off. How could he, someone who always wanted to break free and live on his own terms, end up like this again, even in a new world? Then, the System appeared. [Ding] [System implementation process begins; you are chosen to inherit a personalized System. You can choose to become a Great Hero or an Evil Villain. By completing tasks assigned to you based on the path you choose, you can earn mystical rewards, wealth, and power beyond your wildest imagination. Do you accept the System?] Asher stared at the glowing message, his frustration boiling over. Hero? That was a joke. Heroes followed rules, played by society’s ideals, and lived to help others. He’d had enough of that nonsense. “I don’t need to be a hero,” Asher muttered, his voice laced with contempt. “I’ve been held back enough. I’m done with that. I’ll do things my way.” Without a second thought, he clicked on the Villain option. He wasn’t about to waste time pretending to be someone he wasn’t. [Ding] [Villain path chosen. Rewards will be granted upon completion of tasks.] A cold, wicked grin spread across Asher’s face. This was it. No more being an extra. No more following anyone’s rules. Now, he had the chance to take control, to carve out his own future with power, wealth, and freedom. The world would bend to his will. “Who says I can’t be a villain?” Asher whispered, a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "Let them try to stop me." ***** No NTR , No Yuri

As the Arctic ice caps crumble under catastrophic global warming, the ancient "Pandora Virus" — buried for millennia — unleashes hell on Earth. Chen Mo, a history student in a drowsy lecture hall, watches civilization collapse into blood-soaked chaos: the infected rise as ravenous horrors, cities become graveyards, and humanity’s darkest instincts erupt in the ruins. Armed with a fire axe, Chen Mo battles through his zombified campus with medical prodigy Lin Wei, campus beauty Su Qing, and other survivors. Betrayal and sacrifice shatter their fragile sanctuary, forcing Chen Mo on a desperate quest to find his family. In a warlord-controlled bunker, he discovers his parents died protecting the weak in a mutant-infested quarantine zone. Inheriting their resolve, Chen Mo transforms from survivor to guardian, forging the bunker into a beacon of hope called "New Haven." But its light attracts the genocidal cult "The Purifiers," igniting holy war. To reach humanity’s last stronghold — the subterranean fortress "Kunlun Base" — Chen Mo leads an elite squad across the wasteland. Through sand-choked ruins, slaver pits, and the Purifiers’ mobile fortresses, they recruit allies: a survivalist hunter, a mechanic duo, and "Shadow," a wanderer marked by secrets. Each victory comes at a cost. Within Kunlun’s ordered utopia, Chen Mo uncovers deadlier threats: factional power struggles, unethical virus-weapon experiments, and the cult’s "Prophet" who commands the infected. When intel reveals Pandora’s origin lies in an Arctic ice vault, Chen Mo launches a suicidal expedition. In the frozen lab ruins, he confronts the Prophet — a virus-human hybrid — and sacrifices comrades to destroy the hive. The "Primordial Strain" he retrieves could be humanity’s cure... or ultimate doom. As Kunlun’s leadership fractures and New Haven simmers with discord, a new power emerges from the West: the technocratic dystopia "Eden." The long night endures. Every echo of human survival etches a new epoch in the darkness.
