After being dragged through a mysterious portal, Zed found himself entangled in a murder he didn’t commit. Worse, he carried an ancient demon bloodline, and in the world of Eldoria, that made him a target. Thankfully, Zed had three aces: a unique soul, unnaturally high vitality and a gift from a woman trapped in the forbidden abyss. The Blood Monarch System. It let him consume the essence of his prey—unlocking their strengths, their secrets, their very bloodlines. And so, Zed decided to live his life to the fullest. He’d slay monsters, dominate deadly ruins, and conquer the hearts—and bodies—of beauties. As for his ultimate goal? It was simple. Become a supreme existence. "The key to awakening bloodlines and getting stronger is chaos... and a few charming ladies along the way." In the magical world of Eldoria, mana flowed through everything. Unfortunately, Zed Deverux was born with Withering Mana Syndrome, a disease that drained mana from his body and made surviving past the age of nine nearly impossible. Miraculously, he managed to live for twenty years, tirelessly searching for a cure with the help of his eccentric alchemist mentor. One day, after drinking her latest potion, his condition seemed to improve—only to later discover the shocking truth behind the 'elixir'. It was her breast milk?! Light colored eyes are considered ugly here?" Aidan Reith found himself transmigrated into a fantasy world just before his acting debut, only to discover its beauty standards were a bit off. But Aidan quickly adapted and got excited. He loved acting, and this strange world offered countless cultures to explore. To his surprise, he also awakened the power of a chameleon. All he needed was the body of a species, and he could turn it into a wearable skin! [You can become a demon. Do you want to read the 'haunted village' script?] [You can become a poisonous lamia. Do you want to read the 'gem-loving snake' script?] [You can become a dragoman. Do you want to read the 'dark dragon's harem' script?] Aidan soon realized the world's entertainment lacked variety, so he decided to create the first movie theater. And those who tried to stop him? They mysteriously disappeared. "Dual cultivation is actually the cure to my illness?" In the martial world of Danxia, qi flowed through everything. Unfortunately, Seth Fenix was born with Withering Qi Syndrome, a disease that drained qi from his body and made surviving past the age of nine nearly impossible.

I killed the protagonist. Yeah. He was a real son of a bitch. Noah didn’t just stumble into this mess. He walked straight in—grinning, sword in hand. One day, he wakes up inside his favorite game… as a throwaway side character no one remembers. A complete nobody. But when he figures out who the so-called “main character” is? Some smug, self-righteous psycho. So yeah—he killed him. No regrets. Story over, right? Not exactly. Because this world? It’s got one more player. "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!?" Now the story’s off the rails, the world’s gone completely off-script, and Noah’s got a new goal: Steal the hero’s spot. Rewrite the plot. Find out who the hell this other player is. And maybe—just maybe—make this damn story fun for once. ~ Discord: https://discord.gg/tQ76KAUQfN

Feng Chen, le chef estimé du Clan Feng, avait mené une vie paisible pendant trente ans depuis sa transmigration. Il croyait que sa vie continuerait ainsi—jusqu'à son 30ème anniversaire, lorsque son Système est enfin arrivé ! Mais avec cela est venu l'intrigue pour le Personnage Principal.

Bai Chuwei has lived for five thousand years, and after becoming an ancestor of all human beings, she descends the mountains and initiates the plot of a novel. A new female student is transferred into Henghua Secondary School Year 3. The young lady has bright eyes, white teeth, red lips and her appearance is similar to an immortal fairy. But unfortunately, she has Eighth-Grader Syndrome. “The wealth of ten Duan Family added together does not even make up half of my combined wealth over the past five thousand years.” “The first classic masterpiece of China? Oh I casually wrote that for fun two decades ago.” “Scientific research isn’t comparable to flying in the skies with a sword. Today, this ancestor here shall teach everyone how to cultivate scientifically.” The online lurkers reveal a snort of contempt and wait to see Bai Chuwei slapping herself in the face after acting so pretentiously. Eventually, the China Property Statistics Association reveals this particular information: The respected ancestor is the richest person in the world, owning the most number of gold mines, hundreds of islands, and countless property worldwide. China Writer’s Association: @Bai Chuwei, Respected ancestor, when will you continue updating your book after having stopped it for two centuries?

A Novel that Goes against Tropes. 'The Chosen One'? overrated. 'OP protagonist'? Ctrl+A+Delete. 'Protagonist as the Side-character'? Triple check ✅.

**Mature Content Warning** This novel contains morally bankrupt decisions, unapologetically villainous behavior, corporate warfare, system abuse, woman-stealing, protagonist-trampling, psychological manipulation, and occasional spicy entanglements—some consensual, others complicated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world where megacorporations rule like feudal dynasties and cultivation is under corporate rule, Vincent Cornelius wakes up in a silk-sheeted bed beside a suspiciously curvy woman. Reincarnated into the body of a doomed CEO fated to be a "villain's father". Vincent quickly realizes he's a disposable background character— the kind destined to be humiliated, ruined, and killed so that his pathetic son, can become a stepping stone for some arrogant, heaven-defying, cliché cultivation protagonist. Unfortunately for fate, Vincent didn’t reincarnate to play along. He reincarnated to ruin protagonists for profit. Armed with the Corporate Villain Expansion System, every cruel scheme, humiliating press leak, or market manipulation against protagonist nets him Villain Points—and every time he crushes a “fated encounter,” his Luck Points rise. Turn the protagonist into a drugie? +400 VP + 50 LP Reduce the mercenary king to a job of a small security guard? +500 VP +100 LP Cause chaos in a protagonist's harem—emotional betrayal, internal sabotage, or seduction ? +1,000 VP +200 LP As his mid sized logistics corporation moves towards becoming a corporate megaforce, Vincent must climb the cultivation ladder, weaponize capitalism, and outwit Fate itself—one bankrupt protagonist at a time. The world wants him humbled. The story wants him deleted. But Vincent Cornelius is here to rewrite the script. He’s about to prove that in this world, the real golden finger is a hostile takeover. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer (Filed Personally by Vincent Cornelius): If, by some cosmic accident, any names, corporations, or highly sensitive trade empires mentioned in this story resemble real-world entities—rest assured, it’s entirely coincidental. I am far too busy conquering fictional markets to bother with actual ones. No offense is intended. No lawsuits, either. Unless you’re a protagonist. In which case… file away. I'll be waiting—with a better lawyer and a hostile takeover plan. This is fiction. Relax. Or invest.

"Sect Master! Marry me!" If only things were that simple. Fang Yuan lets out a long sigh, eyes fixed on the mountain of paperwork threatening to swallow his desk and his soul. As the youngest family head in history, you’d think he’d be enjoying fame, fortune, and fawning admirers. Instead, he’s buried in bureaucracy, stuck mediating elder disputes, and wondering if the sect treasury mysteriously eats spirit stones. Sure, the old geezers have their experience, their beards, and their lofty reputations. But Fang Yuan? He has one thing they don’t: raw, unshakable power. Born into a world where innate talent reigns supreme, Fang Yuan—a transmigrator armed with modern grit—actually managed the impossible: he clawed his way to the top with nothing but relentless hard work. While everyone else coasted on heavenly bloodlines and golden physiques, he trained, he studied, and he schemed. Now, he’s strong enough to bend heaven’s will. But cultivation isn’t all sword beams and glory. Life as a family head comes with its own set of woes—namely, watching his annoyingly handsome junior brother collect all the female attention like some kind of walking romance novel. “This isn’t fair,” Fang Yuan mutters under his breath, stamping another scroll. “I’m the protagonist here... right?” #noNTR #noHarem #noLemonJustFadeToBlack this novel officially began its journey on 24th of June. Thank you for supporting me so far.

You know, out of all the things that could have happened to me, finding out I've been Isekai'd into Murder Drones by waking up in the body of a drone kid who got his memory core critically damaged and lost his parents in the same attack that axed Doll's folks was not on the list of things I expected. Still, it's evidently what happened to me, and now I have to DO something about it. So. I have about 9 years before canon kicks off to prepare for the apocalypse, help Uzi and Doll work through all their issues and trauma, respectively, and figure out how my unhinged ass is going to be able to commit deicide, because as a robot I'm theoretically immortal, so screw anything that wants to cut that short. Queue my plan to cheat like the world is ending (because it will) by abusing the hell out of my meta-knowledge, downloading entire terrabytes of data on weapons, combat skills, and engineering, befriending the main cast so I can socially manipulate them into being better able to stop Armageddon, concocting plans to turn the Solver's Murder Pets, and generally do a Batman level of overpreparation in order to rig the game in my favor as much as physically possible, because goddamn, I REALLY don't want to die.

I thought I had seen bad endings before—but nothing prepared me for the garbage conclusion of The Hero’s Path. Years of investment, countless struggles, and for what? The protagonist failed. The villain won. Everyone else? Dead. Furious, I sent a message to the author, only to get a chilling response: [Do you think you could do better?] Before I could even blink, my phone exploded in a blinding light, and the next thing I knew—I was waking up in a completely different body. Now, I’m Merlin Everhart, a fourteen-year-old with a 12-star talent, the kind of gift only the strongest should have. But here’s the problem: I have no idea who I am supposed to be. With nothing but a system and a first-day-of-school alarm ringing in my ears, I’m thrown into the world of The Hero’s Path. Am I just another side character in a world that already ended once? …Either way, I refuse to let this story beat me too.

Whether as the female protagonist deceived and cuckloaded by the male lead yet expected to accept it all, Whether as the female supporting role who is marked by the male lead just for saying some truth to the female lead and then left to die a miserable death, whether as the paranoid villain who is abandoned by the world and holds onto her obsession to the end just to get deceived by the male and female leads and dies a tragic end.

Standing as the empire’s sharpest mind — a genius defense attorney with a perfect record and a reputation as cold as the steel he wielded in court. For years, he served the powerful, burying scandals, silencing enemies, and rewriting the law itself with surgical precision. They called him The Black Verdict, and they were right — he didn’t fight for justice. He fought to win. Until the empire turned on him. Framed, discarded, and marked for death, Lin Jian plays one final move — a silent, precise strike meant to unfold only after he’s gone. But death isn’t the end. When he opens his eyes, it’s in a world of war banners, ancient dynasties, and battlefield blood. The face is different. The time, unfamiliar. But the mind—sharp, cold, unrelenting—is still his. And in this new world, strategy may be more dangerous than any sword. Surrounded by enemies, haunted by a past he never lived, Lin must once again navigate power, loyalty, and control—only this time, from within a legend not his own. Because this time, he isn't playing defense. He’s rewriting the story—one calculated move at a time. ***** Disclaimer: If you’re looking for a main character who one-slaps every enemy into the dirt — this isn’t that kind of story. MC doesn’t power up overnight. His rise is slow, strategic, and earned step by step. Also, The system isn’t an all-powerful cheat that hands out instant strength or glory. It acts more like a guide—offering information, tracking progress, and rewarding completed tasks. Everything else, the protagonist must earn with his own hands. There are no “Heaven’s Chosen” to insta-dominate, no villains gobbling up protagonists like pokemon. This world hits back — hard — and every victory will come at a cost. If you're here for mind games, long plays, and a villain who builds empires with brains over brawn... welcome. ******

[Scrapped] "I Am Not the Protagonist" Reincarnated. Doomed. Over it. Caleb was just a sleep-deprived mess of a man, dead before thirty and buried under unfinished art and caffeine-fueled regrets. Now? He’s been reborn into a fantasy novel he once read — as a minor villain whose only personality trait was simping for a heroine who didn’t even remember his name. Gross. Determined to ghost the cringe script written for him, Caleb throws the plot in the shredder and walks his own crooked path through the elite Academy, where heroes train, secrets fester, and a demon invasion looms in the shadows. He’s not the chosen one. Not the protagonist. Not even a sidekick. But he is a wildcard. And sometimes, that's exactly what the story needs.

Have you ever read a novel with such a terrible ending that you wished you could change the story and give the characters you loved the happy ending they deserved? ~~~ I was just another failure of an author, writing stories nobody read, and that never sold. Seeking to improve my writing, I read the most popular novel at that time, Solo Player, to learn what made it so popular. However, as I read this story, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated about the story’s development, which had a terrible ending. Eventually, and quite bitterly, once I ended reading the book, I found myself transmigrated into the very world of this novel. Did I become the Protagonist? A Villain? Or perhaps even an Extra? No, it was much worse than I imagined. Because I ended up becoming the most worthless character that nobody ever cared about in the novel. A character that is often considered the motivation for the protagonist to grow stronger, but also his greatest burden. Someone every reader hated! “I’m the protagonist’s sister…” However, with my knowledge of this novel's events, my worthlessness was about to change. I’ve decided to not only become the strongest but also change the story’s terrible ending! “I won’t let you go inside a Dungeon, it’s too dangerous.” ...As long as I can get this incredibly corny and overprotective brother out of my way! And for some reason, the Constellations won’t stop bothering me. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Butterfly That Flies Across The Universe} seems interested in your tenacity!] [She has sponsored 1000000 Plot Points and the [Demon of Calamity Transformation Technique (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} finds your chaotic nature amusing!] [He has thrown the [Umbral Chaos Stone Necklace (S Rank)] at you!] [Not enough? He launched the [Immortal Heaven Peach (SSS Rank)] right on your face!] There was something really wrong with the Constellations this time around. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} is happy that you’re bringing despair to your victims!] [He has gifted you the [Jester’s Last Laugh (S Rank Privilege)] and the [Master of Manipulation (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Maiden that Watches Over Nature} seems happy you’re growing stronger.] [She has gracefully sponsored you with 2000000 Plot Points and Fully Heals All Your Wounds!] [She has also begun to wonder if you could plant some trees for her, gifting you the [Divine World Tree Seedling (SSS Rank)]!] [The Cosmic Throne {Warrior That Seeks Calamity} is satisfied with your battle performance but asks for more battle!] [He has sponsored you with 500000 Plot Points and [Beheading Sword of Destruction (SSS Rank)]!] They simply couldn’t stop gifting me things as if I were some sort of famous streamer for them. “I am grateful, but please just leave me alone already…” Chapters are long, 1500 ~ 2000+ words.

What if money was power? What if capital was magical? What if income was cultivation? What if a young man decided to destroy this unjust world of inequality and build a better one? That was exactly what Cæ (Cash) sought to do amid grief, anger, and hatred when he lost everything in an accident. Having come from nothing in the slums, his only goal had been to live a good life. By the age of twenty-two, he had finally managed to pull himself out of poverty with a decent job and romance. And then he lost everything he had ever built in an accident that left him in a coma for half a year. The world deprived him of the only person he had truly come to love. The predatory healthcare system burdened him with debt. The corrupt justice system deprived him of justice. The financial system robbed him of everything he owned. For the second time in his life, Cæ had been left with nothing. Well, almost nothing. The accident and the ensuing coma had altered his brain and mind, giving him an extraordinary talent for cultivating and mastering magic. He had been blessed with Acquired Savant Syndrome, a medical condition so rare that there were very few instances of it ever having occurred in history. It gave him endless potential and remarkable power. It gave him the power to destroy the world that he hated from the bottom of his heart. It gave him the power to destroy it and build a better one. And that was exactly what Cæ set out to do.

Kain is a devilish, manipulative force. Aware of his charm and power, he has no intention of playing the hero. Instead, he relishes his role as the villain, using his smooth words and seductive presence to manipulate the women around the wonderful protagonists of the world. Whether through subtle flirting or more overt advances, Kain’s goal is simple. To steal their women. And he knows exactly how to play the game. Thriving on pushing their boundaries, creating tension, and making them question their feelings, all while enjoying the chaos he stirs. And enjoying the late-night sessions. He is the only Villain of the game. There is lewd and explicit stuff

Introduction? What introduction? For the sake of caution, I won’t write an introduction. . . . . . . P.S. This is not my original thing.

“This world didn’t kill me. But it stole everything.” Rio was just an ordinary office worker in Tokyo—a 24-year-old man living in a world slowly drowning in fear. Three years ago, a blinding white light erased the only person he ever loved: his mother, a victim of a mysterious phenomenon known as the Sleeping Blank Syndrome. Since then, thousands have fallen into unexplained comas. And one terrifying truth has come to light: > “If they don’t wake up within five years… they never will.” Time is running out. Rio has only two years left. But one night, with no warning and no sign, the same light returns. And this time, he vanishes. When he opens his eyes, Rio is no longer human. He awakens in the body of a frog—in a strange world of magic, monsters, and the ruins of a burnt-down clan. With the blue scarf still wrapped around his neck, the only remnant of his past, Rio makes a vow: > He will find his mother. He will return. He will fight this world if he has to. But this is no world for a frog. And time... ...keeps ticking. ---

[THREE CHAPTERS EVERY WEEK!!!] The Augmented Virtual Personal Computer (AVPC) is a cutting-edge virtual reality headset powered by the world's most powerful and smartest artificial intelligence. Jing Hoo was among the fortunate few to grab his hands on one after winning a beta-tester lottery. In other words, he became a pioneer. Testing the tech before anyone else. But the device Jing Hoo received wasn't ordinary. This one didn't just simulate another world, it actually transported him there. A mind-blowing, reality-defying, breathtaking, and amazing device. He used it to enter the world of [World Journey: First Edge]. A famous novel that had several animation shows and movies. The book was known for its extensive world-building and diverse array of characters. He wanted to be a part of it too. If only Jing Hoo was aware that it was also another reality, not just a simulation.
