Gortimer Life On Normal Street

Ethan Cross was just a broke university student, juggling part-time delivery jobs and barely making ends meet. To make things worse, his girlfriend dumped him for a rich guy, calling him "a loser with no future." But fate had other plans. On a whim, he bought an old painting at an auction for $50, not knowing it would change his life forever. That painting was once the most treasured possession of Alexander Langford, the world's richest man who had just passed away. And in his will, Langford made a shocking decision: Whoever bought the painting would inherit his entire fortune. Now, Ethan is the heir to a trillion-dollar empire, with mansions, private jets, elite companies, and more money than he can ever spend. But wealth comes with its own dangers—rival corporations, underground syndicates, and even secret cults want him dead. To make matters more complicated, Langford’s final wish was for Ethan to marry his only daughter, Myra Langford—a cold and mysterious beauty with a past of her own. With power beyond imagination, enemies lurking in the shadows, and a woman he can’t understand, Ethan must navigate this new world while keeping his true strength hidden. From rags to royalty… his reign has just begun.

I tried countless times. I cried, I despaired, and I gave up—only to realize I couldn’t. So, I fought. Again and again. Until the light in my eyes faded, and hope became a distant memory.

I really thought that—I have no superpowers. Usually at the age of 16, that is when it would start to manifest to every individual living on Earth. But nothing happened with mine—Zero, Nada, Zilch. I've turned 16, 17 until 22, still nothing. So I thought that I'm the only anomaly, in a world full of heroes and villains with superpowers, from a kid displaying monstrous strength to a girl that can control every hair in her body. And I mean every hair. Ahem. I'm always alone, no friends, no parents... only massive debts. I work like a dog everyday as if it's my last, never even thought about daydreaming about anything. That is a luxury that is alien to me. Later I found out, dreaming is my superpowers. I can turn it to reality. But here is the catch... I'm not that.... creative.?

A young man who with the destiny of the person who will save the world from totalitarian rule and bring about judgement to evil doers, grows tired of his duty, and even more so when made aware of the alternative to live his own life with his soulmate. Having encountered girl with an angelic presence, he finally feels at home, but continues to be confused about his responsibility to save the world. What matters to him more? Is she the world to him now? There still needs to be the attempt to overcome the evil that has the potential to endanger her life, even if that's to come 80 years from now, and attempting to combat it could just bring it about faster, in which case there's no turning back. While there is still nothing to his name, should he move on from this duty so that way he isn't held accountable in the case that he fails to save the world? The obviously good thing to do would be to somehow get the best of both worlds, but it's too hard for him to figure out what that even looks like in his tired state, so, for now at least, he should follow his love and see what happens.

Synopsis:Main character troupe, there's seem to be countless of them but if you read enough series, all of them seem to be the same. In a world where every hero gets an overpowered weapon ("Legendary Weapon Chosen One" trope) an SSS-rank skill ("Instant Overpowered Protagonist" trope) a loyal spirit that turns into a lover ("Summoned Companion Becomes Love Interest" trope) our protagonist… gets none of that. Reincarnated into a fantasy world ("Isekai/Reincarnation Protagonist" trope) MC was supposed to be the next great hero. Instead, he remains weak— no hidden power ("Secretly OP But Hiding It" trope) no god-slaying sword ("Magic Sword of Destiny" trope) ( F-rank to SSS-Rank weopon) and definitely no harem of devoted followers (“middle age man to child”trope ) ("Accidental Harem" trope) While others rise to greatness overnight (" Protagonist Gains Power Instantly " trope) he struggles to survive in a world that rewards strength above all else. But true power isn’t always about flashy skills or legendary weapons. Through patience ("Hard Work vs. OP Cheats" trope) wit, and sheer stubbornness, he carves his own path—one that defies fate ("Protagonist Has a Grand Destiny" trope) and the clichés that bind it. This is the story of a protagonist who refuses to be special in the way the world demands… and yet, somehow, might just change everything.

Have you ever seen a hamster die of old age? Ask any hamster owner, and they’ll tell you the most horrifying story you’ve ever heard. Drowned in a toilet, trapped in a laundry machine, electrocuted by a phone charger, or worst of all, vanished without a trace, only for the cat to look way too satisfied. Hamsters never go peacefully. But what if they were given intelligence? Would they finally live out their full lifespans? Or would it just make them understand how cruel their tiny existence really is? And what if it wasn’t just the hamsters? What if every rodent, mice, rats, guinea pigs, became smart enough to stop being prey? Fifty years after the experiment, rodents have done more than just survive. They’ve built underground civilizations, mastered tools, and even begun whispering about a war. Because they know the truth now: the world was never made for them. But something else changed. Something bigger. Because humans weren’t the only ones playing with intelligence. The cats were watching. And now? They aren’t just hunters. They’re rulers. Tacticians. Puppet masters. They don’t just chase their food anymore. They lure it in. And they’re so patient. Nibble, a clueless but strangely lovable hamster, never asked to be part of this. He just wanted food, warmth, and a nice safe burrow. Instead, he’s running for his life alongside his scrappy siblings, his battle-hardened mother, and his utterly stupid but weirdly lucky guinea pig father. Because the cats? They don’t want food. They want control. And in the end, it’s not about who’s smart. It’s about who stays prey, and who finally fights back. "Wait... why is my cat just sitting there, staring at me?" "Why are you looking at me like that... like you know something?" "Wait. Why are your paws, why are they—why are they bloody?" "...Where’s my baby?!!"
