Pest Regretavator

Cheated on by her fiancé weeks before their wedding, Sara, vowed to never love again. Men could not be trusted, especially with a woman's heart. She had made the mistake once, and that was more than enough for her. Never again would she make the same mistake to give her heart to another. But her resolve began to waver when she came across her new boss, Alexander Legend, a man whose reputation in his expertise and ruthlessness in business preceded him. Respected and feared by many, but to Sara, he was an annoying pest she wished she never met. Too persisted for her liking yet, she finds herself falling, slowly melting in his presence. Getting used to his stolen kisses and hugs and sometimes anticipating them. °°°°° Excerpts “You will fall for me, Sara. One day, I'll have your heart too,” Alex drawled. His voice had a seductive allure that had her heart racing. The fact that his hand was leisurely resting around her waist didn't help her either. “Try as much as you want to,” despite her body begging for his touch, Sara was determined to reject him today and any other day. She couldn't make the same mistake again. “You won't succeed in your seduction. NOT NOW. NOT EVER.” Alex smirked, kissed behind her ear and her body trembled, much to his satisfaction. That was all he needed to keep purising the stubborn woman in his arms right now. “We shall see, Miss Ambrose,” he cooed and then released her. He returned to his seat and asked in a professional tone. “What is my schedule for today?”

In her previous life, Jiang Yan's mother was murdered by her stepfather under the guise of celebrating their wedding anniversary with a trip abroad, and Jiang Yan herself, holding a huge inheritance, was locked by him in the basement of a villa and had one of her hands mangled. As natural disasters became more frequent and the apocalypse descended, the stepfather's family, hiding in the villa waiting for the apocalypse to pass, ultimately set their sights on Jiang Yan... With the opening of her eyes, Jiang Yan was reborn three months before the apocalypse. After activating her portable Space and successfully taking her revenge, she, now in possession of a massive amount of funds, started a global shopping spree: yachts, helicopters, off-road RVs, weapons, amphibious boats, necessities for clothing, food, shelter, and transport; everything from five-star delicacies to tasty street food hidden in remote corners... she bought and hoarded them all, bringing everything into her Space! Seeing that there was only one month left, Jiang Yan began a cramming-style learning binge: shooting! Flying planes! Driving boats! Hand-to-hand combat! Agricultural Planting! She even learned how to operate an excavator from the Red Xiang Technical School! In July, a double typhoon that caused seawater backflow starting from Japan marked the beginning of the apocalypse. A super high temperature wave followed right after, sweeping across the globe, along with torrential rains, earthquakes, pest infestations, extreme cold, nuclear contamination, mutation of animals and plants... one natural calamity after another ensued! While others fought over a packet of instant noodles or half a bottle of water, Jiang Yan was leisurely planting vegetables, raising fish, sitting comfortably in her safe house with air conditioning on, and enjoying her hot pot meal~ PS. This entire story is fictitious.

Às margens do Rio Xishui, vivia uma família de sobrenome Ruo, cuja sorte era tão desastrosamente ruim que parecia que a má sorte possuía suas próprias almas. Quando outras famílias tinham colheitas abundantes, a Família Ruo não colhia um único grão. Seus vegetais plantados eram devorados por insetos, suas galinhas pegavam peste aviária, seus porcos pegavam febre suína... Apesar de a casa estar cheia de homens fortes, eles eram ou loucos, aleijados ou cegos... O que teria sido uma família de grandes perspectivas tornou-se a mais pobre em dez milhas. A única coisa que os outros invejavam na Família Ruo eram seus membros masculinos prósperos! A velha senhora da Família Ruo deu à luz seis filhos, que depois lhe deram quatro netos. Ela sonhava dia e noite em ter uma neta. Quando ela finalmente teve uma neta, para seu desânimo, a criança era mentalmente desabilitada: com mais de três anos, ela ainda não conseguia falar ou andar, sequer conseguia comer ou se aliviar sem ajuda. Todo mundo achava que a Família Ruo nunca mudaria sua sorte nesta vida! Isso foi até a criança mentalmente desabilitada de três anos e meio de repente chamar, “Mamãe...” Os céus começaram a mudar. O mundo começou a se tornar misterioso. No quintal da Família Ruo, os caquis amadureceram da noite para o dia. Os vegetais nos campos, quase devorados por insetos, ficaram verdes e exuberantes. A velha galinha que nunca botava ovos de repente começou a botar... Enquanto outros enfrentavam fome, o celeiro da Família Ruo estava cheio. O filho mais velho não era mais louco, o segundo filho não era mais aleijado, o terceiro filho não era mais cego... A velha senhora da Família Ruo, com as mãos nos quadris, ria alegremente para o céu, "Quem diz que minha Xuanbao é uma simplória? Ela é claramente um tesouro de bênçãos!" (Este é um romance de fazenda com um toque de encanto de fada, onde a protagonista feminina em uma vida anterior era um lírio do dia recém-despertado que reencarnou como humana.)

En el Río Xishui, vivía una familia con el apellido Ruo, cuya suerte era tan desastrosamente mala que parecía que la desgracia poseía sus propias almas. Cuando otras familias tenían cosechas abundantes, la Familia Ruo no cosechaba un solo grano. Las verduras que plantaban eran devoradas por insectos, sus gallinas contraían la peste aviar, sus cerdos la fiebre porcina... A pesar de que el hogar estaba lleno de hombres fuertes, estaban locos, lisiados o ciegos... Lo que podría haber sido una familia de grandes perspectivas se convirtió en la más pobre en un radio de diez millas. Lo único que otros envidiaban de la Familia Ruo era ¡sus florecientes miembros masculinos! La anciana de la Familia Ruo había dado a luz a seis hijos, quienes luego le dieron cuatro nietos. Soñaba día y noche con tener una nieta. Cuando finalmente tuvo un nieto, para su consternación, el niño era mentalmente discapacitado: con más de tres años, todavía no podía hablar ni caminar, ni siquiera podía comer o aliviarse sin ayuda. ¡Todos pensaban que la Familia Ruo nunca cambiaría su fortuna en esta vida! Eso fue hasta que el niño de tres años, mentalmente discapacitado, de repente dijo —Mamá... Los cielos comenzaron a cambiar. El mundo empezó a volverse misterioso. En el patio de la Familia Ruo, los caquis maduraron de la noche a la mañana. Las verduras en los campos, casi devoradas por los insectos, se volvieron frondosas y verdes. La gallina vieja que nunca había puesto huevos de repente comenzó a poner... Mientras otros enfrentaban hambrunas, el granero de la Familia Ruo estaba lleno. El hijo mayor ya no estaba loco, el segundo hijo ya no estaba lisiado, el tercer hijo ya no estaba ciego... La anciana de la Familia Ruo, con las manos en las caderas, se reía a carcajadas hacia el cielo —¿Quién dice que mi Xuanbao es un simpleton? ¡Claramente es un tesoro de bendiciones! (Esta es una novela de agricultura con un toque de encanto de hadas, donde la protagonista femenina en una vida anterior era un lirio del día recién despertado que se ha reencarnado como humana.)

As a soon-to-be chieftain, Ashlani's responsibilities were numerous, complex, and often boring. As a recently reincarnated keelish (a reptilian pest), his responsibilities only extend to 1. survive another day, 2. keep his belly full, and 3. kill anything that keeps him from numbers 1 and 2. Oh, and, if the opportunity arises, take revenge on his friend turned brother turned murderer. Ashlani was sent on his inaugural hunt as the chieftain-to-be of his tribe when he was shot in the back by the man he was closest to, the one he called his closest friend. Post-mortem, he was greeted by a [System], the elect, singular keelish representative. Now, his focus must be on continuous growth and evolution, to awaken to his grand potential, and lead his new people to a new age. This is a reboot of my previous novel, Ashlani's Reincarnation, a grimdark take on a LitRPG reincarnation novel. This is a slower, more methodical approach to story, and I hope that its quality will reflect that. I update five times a week, usually weekdays, but if I miss a weekday, I make it up over the weekend.

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

What are the pros and the cons of regressing back in time? Pros: Certainly, sure, you have a second chance. Another opportunity to fight for survival, to somehow win against the damned pest invaders, and to save the ones that you couldn’t before. But cons: It’s just impossible. Why even bother? The twin, Azia and Cyril Belmont have two completely different opinions on this matter. For Azia, this whole thing is a miracle. It isn’t just a second life for her, but for everyone on earth to once again fight for their survival. And this time, she will win. She will make sure of it. What kind of idiot would turn this down? As for Cyril, he just wonders why the fuck is he even here. How the hell is he supposed to change anything that would stop the earth from crumbling away? What? Is randomly turning left instead of going right on a sunny day would somehow miraculously stop the damn sky from tearing apart?? And who the fuck is responsible for this!? They certainly don’t have any answers. *** Author note: This story has two protagonists and will be told from both point-of-views, so the first few chapters might be a little long and rocky as some information might be repeated. But I promise it’s not going to be much, just give me some time to sort out the writing style and world’s building. Later on, they will embark on two different journeys that will make this writing approach more smooth and convenient, maybe, probably. Also, I’m very new to writing so please feel free to comment and help out this author-nim out. That’s all, enjoy the read!

Fang Quan, a 21-year-old college slacker, has two great passions in life—gaming and skipping class. But if there’s one thing he truly despises, it’s rodents. Rats, in particular. Creepy, sneaky, and downright disgusting. He can’t stand the sight of them. One fateful day, on his way to pick up the latest game release, Fang Quan is hit by a truck. Just before the darkness takes him, he catches a glimpse of something impossible—a rat grinning at him. When he wakes up, it’s not in a hospital bed. No, it’s worse. Much worse. He’s been reincarnated as a rat. A creature he’s hated his whole life. Forced to live among the very vermin he loathes, Fang Quan is determined to survive, plotting a way to escape this nightmare. But the more time he spends among the rats and other beastmen, the more he starts to see the truth: maybe it’s not the rats or the beastmen who are the problem—maybe humans are the real pests. Just when he’s coming to terms with his new life, he learns of a brewing revolution. The rats and their fellow brethren are planning to rise up and overthrow humanity. War is coming, and Fang Quan must decide where he truly belongs. Excerpt: “If I get out of this alive, I’m going vegan,” Fang muttered, scampering through the sewer. “Who’s alive?” a rat beside him snickered. “You’re one of us now. Get used to cheese cravings.” “I hate cheese,” Fang hissed. The older rat raised a brow. “Oh, sweet summer child. Give it time.”

I reincarnated as the villainess of the novel I read. She was destined to die no matter what happens so I tried to lower the sentence she receives into banishment to the countryside as a nun in a monastery. Surprisingly, my life is good save for some few “pests” bothering me.

“If you are going to work with me, you have to stop wearing rags because you will be spotted with me on red carpet events, and you will have to move into my apartment and I have got a list of rules and regulations that you have to follow," Lin Yan said in a voice that is as low as it was arrogant. “I despise him; he is like a thorn in my flesh; he is arrogant, selfish, rude, and doesn't respect the opinions of others; how dare he tell me I am wearing rags,” Meiling complained to Yu Weiqing “Chen Lin Yan, known by the alias “Michael” is a big shot model, dancer, and artist who won Oscars for having the most handsome face in the world two years round, and who had only ever loved one person in his life until he gets betrayed and vowed never to love again.

"Is this finally our happy ever after?" a young man said looking up at the tall man next to him. "Who knows..." the tall man said. "Will we ever have that?" said the young man as he hugged the tall man by the waist. "I hope..." as the tall man said that a nostalgic look flashed past on his face.

"Will you die for me as I did for you?" the young man asked the tall man awaiting the answer that he wants to hear.

I just want to be with you...in peace...What's so wrong with us being together? What's so wrong with us being happy?..." As the young man said that, tears rolled down his face.

Rita needed to befriend any management staff of Global Press Limited to get to the owner of the company. It didn't matter who. It should have been a simple situation of using an unsuspecting person, but then she met the new Branch Manager - melanin, drool worthy, Benjamin Inyang.

But he caught himself wondering if her hair was naturally long or artificial, also, how would it feel when he plunged his hands into it or, perhaps, grabbed her wide, curvy hips?
