Elden Ring Crafting Guide

In a certain empire, a young prince was born with a golden pickaxe. It should have been seen as a miracle or a blessing, but instead, the emperor wanted nothing to do with the child. He refused to accept a prince blessed with what he considered a commoner’s job, fearing it would taint his royal bloodline. Abandoned by his own parents, the young boy, Shennong, was taken in by a succubus. But neither the succubus nor the emperor knew the truth about him—Shennong was no ordinary child. He was a reincarnator. This is the story of how the world of Matay reacts to the birth of the first Sandboxer, a class unknown to many. Will Shennong forgive those who abandoned him? What was the purpose of his reincarnation in this world? What is the true nature of the golden pickaxe, and what does it mean for Shennong? One thing is certain—Shennong is not alone in this world because he had a true sandbox system and people to support him even in this world. Join him and experience a true sandbox adventure! *** Author's Note: —This story has R-18 elements to it, but no netorare (NTR) —This story is a work of fiction and all the character names, locations, ages, and events depicted are purely the product of the author’s imagination.

When traveling back to Japan's late Muromachi Era, how to survive becomes a significant challenge! Now, Harano must live well under this high-difficulty challenge!

Being an alien field researcher stranded on Earth really made survival quite difficult. "Me, an alien, give me money!"

“Don’t look at me like that,” he murmured, brushing a knuckle over her lower lip. “I’ll forget we’re pretending to be civil and fuck you on this table with your enemies still in the room.” He killed her brother. She married him anyway. Nadya Vasiliev made a deal with the devil—for protection, for power, for her niece’s future. To get close enough to destroy Alexei Romanov—the man who tore her family apart—she created a contract and became his wife. A marriage of revenge, nothing more.  But Alexei is no ordinary enemy. He’s powerful. Controlled. Wickedly seductive. And he knows she’s lying. Nadya is playing the long game—seduction, manipulation, revenge. But the deeper she gets, the more dangerous the game becomes. Her heart wasn’t supposed to be in this. Her body wasn’t supposed to burn for his touch. Everyone knows once you dance with the devil… You either bring him down or fall to your knees. The smut will be smutting. I’m exploring how freaky my brain can get. Gimme ideas and gifts lovelies.

Wu Fan was once an ordinary man, living a life indistinguishable from the masses. But fate had other plans when it placed a mysterious ring in his palm. This wasn't just any trinket—it was a dimensional gateway, connecting two worlds and making him the sole "real player" in a parallel gaming universe. But what this world offered surpassed even his wildest dreams. Martial arts manuals, divine beasts, elixirs of immortality, and even living beings could all be brought back to the real world. Think your martial arts master is impressive? Sorry, I sell S-rank cultivation techniques by the ton. Think your fighting champion is unbeatable? Sorry, that level only qualifies as an apprentice where I come from. Think that terminal illness is incurable? Come here and try my alchemical elixirs—guaranteed to rejuvenate you and make you feel like a new person. After obtaining the ring, Wu Fan became a force to be reckoned with in reality, manipulating elites across various fields; while in the game world, he conquered cities, unified nations, and conquered the demon realm. Master of two worlds—this was just the beginning.5. Used more relatable comparisons that Western readers would understand...

In a world governed by the Twelve Rings—powerful guardians of balance and order—one has turned rogue, casting a shadow over the planet and threatening a devastating return. In preparation for this looming threat, society is divided into ranks: Alpha, Beta, Delta, and at the very bottom—Zeta. Sage is a Zeta. Discarded. Overlooked. Until a cruel twist forces him into a forgotten lab—where something ancient wakes up. Now bound to a ruthless AI system with no patience for weakness, Sage is given a singular command: find the Elixir or be erased. No one believes the Elixir exists. No one believes Sage will last a week. The system disagrees. > “Vitals dropping. Emotional integrity unstable. Physical output: disgraceful.” “I’m trying—” Sage gasped, coughing on blood. “Trying is irrelevant. Survival is mandatory.” The system didn’t yell. It didn’t threaten. It simply administered pain—blinding, searing pain—until Sage screamed. “Pain increases adaptation. Adapt or be purged.” And somewhere in the agony, Sage understood: This thing wouldn’t make him stronger. It would break him until he had no choice but to be.

Seram Pitt wakes up in a stranger's bed to a shocking revelation: he's an SSS-class Esper, the most powerful and feared kind. The man beside him, Silke, is his assigned Guide - cool, professional, and irresistible. Seram thought he was straight, but around Silke, his logic falters, his heart races, and his instincts scream to protect. He's falling fast, and it's terrifying. As an Esper with destructive abilities, Seram fears losing control and hurting Silke, the one person who makes him feel human. He tries to keep his distance, but his possessiveness grows stronger. Despite being seen as a weapon, Seram yearns to be something soft - for Silke. As feelings intensify and dangers loom, Seram faces a truth more daunting than his abilities: he's lost his heart, and it belongs to his Guide. Can he navigate his emotions and the dangers surrounding him, or will his feelings destroy everything?

Since a young age, Lucifer Morningstar had lived in suffering due to a deadly cancer that slowly consumed his body and soul. There was no hope, no future—until, in the final moments of his life, a mysterious light brought him into a new birth in another world: Eryndor, a magical land filled with ancient creatures, elemental powers, and buried history. In Eryndor, Lucifer awakened in the body of a 15-year-old teenager, still carrying the memories and pain of his past life. He was saved by a legendary dragon named Velgarion, one of the seven great guardian dragons of this world. Velgarion had raised him for years and possessed the Ring of Power, one of the Ten Infinite Rings—ancient artifacts that grant limitless magical energy to their bearer. However, those peaceful days came to an end. Velgarion is now dying, his soul being devoured by an ancient curse. In his final moments, the dragon bequeaths the Ring of Power to Lucifer and leaves behind a message that will change the fate of the world: the other nine rings are scattered across Eryndor, and if united, they can unlock absolute power... or bring about ultimate destruction.

Elion was ready to die. But fate—or something far beyond it—had other plans. Dragged from death into a strange world ruled by trials, monsters, and a mysterious system, Elion finds himself caught in a game he doesn’t understand, where failure means erasure and survival comes at a cost. With no memories of how or why he was chosen, and no allies he can trust, he must uncover the truth behind the Tower, the voice behind the system, and the reason he still draws breath. Because in this world, nothing is free. Not even a second chance.

Who would have thought that your life could change just because you give a bad rating to a game? Kalandra just wanted to vent his frustration because of the disappointing ending of the game he played. He left scathing reviews and ratings, then intended to forget everything. However, fate says otherwise. When he opened his eyes, he was already in the body of Lucian Hale, aka Navien, the antagonist who died at the end of the main story game he played earlier. The Problem? He doesn't know any of the intricacies of this character other than the fact that Navien is the antagonist of the game. Now he has to survive in the game he plays and find a way to avoid a terrible ending by trying to avoid the main story, especially the protagonist! Cover credit:

Kai Nakamura dies helpless and broken in a dark alley, forced to watch his fiancé Yuki suffer at the hands of professional boxer and bully Daichi Sasaki. With his dying breath, he learns the truth, his father's "accident" twenty years ago was murder, orchestrated by the Sasaki crime family. His mother's two-decade hospitalization isn't from grief—it's from the psychological destruction of witnessing her husband's assassination. As death claims him, Kai's desperate prayer for revenge is answered by the King of the Ring System. He awakens at seventeen with a second chance and a game like interface that can transform his encyclopedic boxing knowledge into devastating fighting abilities. Every technique he studied as a spectator—from Mayweather's defense to Lomachenko's footwork is now locked behind stat requirements he must earn through systematic training. But the system demands more than just physical improvement. To unlock the advanced skills needed to destroy the Sasaki family, Kai must climb the ranks of amateur and professional boxing while maintaining his gentle facade. Outside the ring, he remains the caring protector his loved ones need. Inside the ring—and when anyone threatens those he cares about—he becomes something that makes hardened fighters step back in instinctive fear. The Sasaki family controlled professional boxing for decades through violence and corruption. They have money, connections, and a son who's never lost a fight. But Kai has something they don't, the systematic development of twenty years of boxing knowledge, guided by a system that turns dedication into power. Some debts can only be paid in blood—but first, you have to become strong enough to collect.

Yun Jin was supposed to die—a forgettable cannon fodder chewed up by the plot to make the real heroine shine. But after centuries of grinding through infinite worlds as a system’s lackey, she’s back, armed with a golden finger that’s anything but conventional. Meet the "Super Simplified System." Its goal? Make cultivation stupidly easy. Problem? To keep it running, Yun Jin needs emotional fuel—and the more chaos she causes, the more points she gets. —Trying to meditate? Simplified. Now she absorbs qi by… snacking on melon seeds. —Sect elders preaching discipline? Oops. She just yawned mid-lecture—+500 Emotion Points. —Destined to be a nobody? Not today. Every outraged gasp, every baffled stare—power-ups in disguise. Between accidentally trolling the entire cultivation world and rewriting her "doormat" destiny, Yun Jin’s counterattack is a masterclass in productive pandemonium. Who needs hard work when you can harvest rage, confusion, and sheer disbelief—and call it cultivation? Chaos. Comedy. Comeuppance. (And maybe, just maybe, world domination.) [NoCP]

I'm also uploading this on royalroad under the profile https://www.royalroad.com/profile/751665 You know Truck-kun. The chrome-gleaming, destiny-delivering cosmic entity responsible for everyone else's glorious second chances in a fantasy world. Well, I am Truck-kun. Or, rather, I was. Turns out, being the universe's busiest reincarnation service comes with a mountain of cosmic paperwork, an aggressively cheerful HR department, and absolutely zero paid vacation. One catastrophic "System Overload" and an "Unplanned Recall" later, I, the professional harbinger of plot, found myself unexpectedly isekai'd. Not as an overpowered hero, mind you, but as "Leo": a squishy, bipedal human with a horrifyingly intact consciousness, a pulse (ugh), and a brand-new body that hurts when I think about it. My new "life" comes with a glaring, glitchy HUD. Apparently, I'm now a "MAJOR VILLAIN" with a primary directive to "CAUSE PROBLEMS ON PURPOSE." Problem is, my powers—which basically turn me into a walking, accidental demolition derby—have a nasty habit of doing the exact opposite of villainy. I try to make a dramatic entrance, I accidentally save a bus full of orphans. I attempt grand larceny, I accidentally organize a charity bake sale. My "Villainy Points" are currently a dismal negative, while my "Hero Affection" keeps alarmingly skyrocketing. To make matters worse, the universe’s most annoyingly enthusiastic rookie hero, Solar Seeker (Warning: Excessive Hair Gel Usage), keeps showing up, convinced I'm some kind of misunderstood anti-hero. And don't even get me started on the system that keeps demanding I "commit an atrocity to continue" while simultaneously offering "Tax Evasion" as a villainous act. Meanwhile, the original Truck-kun (me, from another cosmic timeline) is still out there, rampaging across dimensions, causing the very reality I'm stuck in to glitch. So now, I, a former god of vehicular homicide, am stuck trying to be a villain, constantly failing upwards into accidental heroism, all while avoiding HR, actual villains, and the existential dread of having feet. Join Leo – the reluctant, burnt-out villain who just wants to clock out – as he navigates a world that refuses to let him be evil, proving that sometimes, the most spectacular failures lead to the most annoying amount of XP. Get ready for: System errors, accidental good deeds, heroes with bad knees, and a lot of grumpy monologuing.

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.

The problem is that the only way back is by bringing peace to this waring world. How will this idiot ever achieve that?

In a world reshaped by the collapse of ancient kingdoms, the death of the legendary Kings of Fire, Thunder, Beasts, Order, and Chaos marked the dawn of a new era. The once-mighty kingdoms have crumbled, giving way to modern states, but the potent legacy of these monarchs remains in the form of five mystical rings. Each ring embodies the unique power of its former ruler, offering unimaginable strength to those who dare to claim them. As the dust of the old world settles, a shadowy organization emerges, masquerading as an archaeological expedition in search of ancient relics. Their true mission, however, is far more sinister: to unearth these rings, believed to be weapons of unparalleled power, capable of shifting the global balance. Alric Kincaid is a brilliant young scholar at Harvard University, on the cusp of graduation with a thesis on the elusive deep state. His academic pursuits take an unexpected turn when he becomes embroiled in a deadly international conspiracy. One fateful night, after a harrowing encounter with Russian intelligence agents, Alric is wounded and finds himself hiding near a forgotten statue, its hand adorned with a mysterious ring.

As he unravels the mystery of the rings, he realizes that the future of nations hangs in the balance. Alric is thrust into a race against time to prevent the resurgence of chaos and tyranny, armed only with his wits, the enigmatic ring, and the reluctant allies he gathers along the way. In a story that blends the mystique of ancient powers with the relentless pace of a modern thriller, "The Rings of Sovereignty" explores the enduring conflict between order and chaos, the burden of power, and the choices that shape destinies. Will Alric succeed in keeping the rings from falling into the wrong hands, or will the world witness the return of a forgotten era's dark reign?
