Crows Explode

Kai, an introverted young man about to start college, has spent the last five years immersed in the light novel Adventurer's Crusade. As he reads the final chapter, nostalgia washes over him, but his excitement quickly turns to despair when the anti-climactic ending shatters his expectations. Frustrated, he declares he could do better than the protagonist, Elijah, only to be confronted by a mysterious voice that challenges his claim. Moments later, his phone explodes, and Kai's world fades to black. When he awakens, he finds himself reborn as a baby in a vibrant new world, filled with magic and adventure. Realizing he is now Kai Brandon, the son of a legendary dungeon-raider, he grapples with his new identity and the memories of his previous life. Determined to surpass the hero he once idolized, Kai sets out on a journey of self-discovery. As he grows, he must navigate this fantastical realm and forge alliances with captivating companions.

A world plunged into chaos. The sun never shines with full brightness, and shadows lurk. Crows and vultures feast on the corpses as the few survivors fight for their lives. The kingdoms of humans, elves, and dwarves, allied for decades, are forced to coexist with monstrous magical beasts… and the most terrifying of all: the nightmares, commonly known as demons. For over thirty years of endless war, ten emperors managed to unite the races to face the demonic threat and the dragons, creatures of incalculable power. But the peace that followed was fleeting. The ten empires flourished, but the emperors' thirst for power became unbearable. The Sun Emperor, the most powerful of them all, ruled with wisdom, but his growing power awakened the envy of the others. The remaining nine, seeking their own supremacy, made a pact with the demons and unleashed a new war. In their desperation for more power, they sought to seal themselves, trusting that the chaos they would unleash in the future could be even more devastating. Only the Sun Emperor could stop them, but his decision was a difficult one: let the demon army ravage the continent or seal the nine, facing the eternal dilemma of whether to trust the future or not. In the end, he chose to seal them, hoping that future generations would have the strength to confront the demons' awakening… but nightmares always find a way to escape.

'Nameless' was an ordinary man, toiling at a laborious job in the biting cold of his snowy village. Though life was bleak and unremarkable, he pushed on for his family. But everything changed on a fateful day when he stumbled upon an unholy sight—something so profoundly unbelievable that his mind exploded and his very soul was wrenched from his body, which then endlessly fell through the earth. As he plummeted, he caught glimpses of ancient murals, forgotten fossils, underground rivers, and civilizations long lost to time. When the descent ended, 'Nameless' found himself in an entirely different world, inhabiting the body of a young student named Abhi. At first, he believed Abhi was just a generic student, but he soon discovered that Abhi was anything but ordinary. Abhi himself was not from this world either. The soul of two transmigrators was trapped in a single body. Whose soul will take control, and whose shall perish? *** [Written by OverlyZero on Royal Road, Webnovel and Scribble Hub] Discord: https://discord.gg/vPxQZfVNXb

Effort? Effort my ass! People born to be beasts of burden could never touch the lower limits of those chosen by the heavens no matter how hard they tried. Talent gap, background gap, appearance gap, luck gap... A single disparity could swallow all the struggles of the beasts of burden, and a combination of many made their lives unbearably tragic.

Let the dogs engage in romance; I just want to explode with rewards.

Have you ever wondered what it would feel like if your dick exploded? Or if voodoo or black magic actually worked? Axel got a crash course in both after leaving a one-star review for a trashy smut novel where the hapless author-san offed a minor villain. Little did he know that this particular author had some serious power. Suddenly, Axel found himself in the body of the very villain he was lamenting, right at the moment when everything was about to spiral into chaos. Now, with a second chance at life (and a brand-new set of problems), Axel must navigate the wild world of villainy—complete with explosive consequences and dark magic—if he wants to rewrite his story before it ends in disaster.

Alisa Hayworth lived her life as a master assassin while working in the shadows. She was unrivaled; eliminating every single thing that threatened the peace of her homeland at the orders of the government. However, little did she know that the same government she had served was wary of her and afraid that she might rise into power and throw the country into chaos. When the time came for her triumphant return to Eidelweiss to fully retire in her job, she was ruthlessly betrayed by her superiors and made the plane she had ridden explode by sending missiles towards it. Full of regrets for not being able to live a simple and normal life with a warmhearted family loving her, she wished she could redo everything. A few minutes after drifting into the void, she found herself reincarnated as Alisa Hayworth in another life, merging her previous memories, characteristics, as well as her abilities into her current persona. But what awaited her was— another life without parents! What’s worse was she found herself awakening in the middle of the battlefield in a war-torn battlefront. Desperate to survive in this new hell, her skills as a master assassin will make her shine gloriously into the battlefield as she wields her reaping scythe once more. Will Alisa be able to survive this time and accomplish her goals of living a proper life? Moreover, the marshal of the infernal army seemed to be watching her every actions too.

Welcome to the kingdom of Blundertopia, where logic takes a vacation and chaos reigns supreme! Meet Sir Wrongalot, a clumsy knight armed with a bent pool noodle and an unshakable (though completely unwarranted) sense of confidence. Alongside his trusty goat Buttercup—who wears a mushroom as a hat—and a band of equally ridiculous misfits, Sir Wrongalot embarks on quests so absurd, even the gods are confused. From stealing royal biscuits to orchestrating a British teaparty under siege by giant pigeons, no task is too foolish for this ragtag crew. With each chapter more hilariously nonsensical than the last, Stupid will have you laughing, groaning, and questioning how such a book even exists. If you’re ready for a story filled with exploding teapots, biscuit battles, and a goat that may or may not be the true hero, then grab a bo’ele of woter and dive into the stupidity. Because sometimes, life’s greatest adventures are also its dumbest. Warning: This book contains excessive silliness, questionable logic, and one very smug goat. Proceed with caution (and snacks).

Kingdom building, slow burn but engaging and non-romantic type book (check review) Lucian thought he was doing the right thing—fulfilling an old man's dying wish. It wasn't much, really. He deleted the old man's browser history and, as a final touch, even placed a couple of R-18 magazines in his grave for good measure. You know, to make sure the old guardian had a peaceful afterlife, free of shame. The reward for his good deed? He got killed by a ghost that very same day. No, this isn't some twisted horror story. Lucian just had the misfortune of being reborn as the worst kind of character—a terminally ill, third-rate villain. Not even a true villain, honestly. Calling him a villain would be giving him too much credit. He’s more like an extra in someone else's grand story. Now, stuck inside a body that will eventually kill him, Lucian has to figure out how to survive, dodging life-threatening situations left and right... Will he be able to make it through?
