"Did I reincarnate as a doomed extra? Hell no! Time to rewrite this script!" Charles was just a college kid glued to his gaming console until he woke up as Rian Cole, the punching bag of the ruthless Storm Clan. His power? Zapping things with electricity! But, to Charles’ dismay, Rian’s body has a mind of its own, short-circuiting every time he tries to throw a punch. In the original story, Rian Cole was cursed with wild, uncontrollable electric powers. Shunned, beaten, and tossed aside as cannon fodder to buy time for the clan leader battling the world’s hero. But Charles isn’t here to play the victim. With no system, no cheats, and a body that seems to prank him at every turn, Charles is ready to prove a "nobody" can flip the game board. The clan despises him, rivals underestimate him, and the battle arenas want him six feet under. But amid the chaos, they show up: girls as stunning as they are deadly, joining his wild ride. First, a stepsister with an angelic face and viper-like schemes, all under the guise of "protecting" him. Second, a quirky warrior who fights hard and teases harder, keeping Charles on his toes in ways he can’t keep track of. The third and fourth girls? You’ll have to read to find out. The ecchi is sizzling, and the harem’s brewing, even if Charles can barely stay upright! WARNING: The story kicks off fast with back-to-back battles, but it won’t always be a slugfest. (There’s downtime for romance and laughs to shine.) Despite the Murim-style outfits and ranks, this tale unfolds in a modern world like ours, packed with elemental powers, magic, and innate abilities. Explicit +18 scenes spark up after chapter 100, clearly marked with a (+18) tag. And yeah, the story dives into fetishes—think feet, butts, boobs, and more... NO NTR. NO YURI. DAILY UPDATES!!

"You don't understand..." His voice broke as he looked at her, barely able to breathe. "I've loved you for as long as I can remember - before I knew what it meant... before I even knew how much it would hurt." He took a step closer, eyes shimmering. "I loved you when you held my hand under the stars, when you forgot your homework and blamed me, when you smiled at other boys and didn't see how it shattered me inside." A pause. A breath.

Liliana “Lily” Elizabeth Armstrong endured a life of abuse and exploitation by her parents, leaving her with a profound lack of self-esteem. On her birthday, a lavish affair was organized to showcase their wealth and social status, with her sister Athanasia being the undisputed star of the evening. To escape the suffocating attention, Lily retreated to the sprawling gardens of their opulent Newport estate. During her solitude, she encountered Duke Henry, a penniless British Duke visiting America specifically to secure a wealthy bride. He was genuinely captivated by Lily’s genuine, unassuming nature and quiet charm, falling for her authentic self rather than the superficial facades of the Gilded Age. However, due to her ambitious parents’ machinations, who were desperate to secure a titled match and believed Athanasia was the more suitable candidate, Lily’s name was mistakenly associated with her sister’s when Henry sent his formal marriage proposal. Tragedy struck when Athanasia went missing and was presumed dead while en route to Henry’s ancestral home in England. As a gesture of familial comfort (and perhaps a desperate attempt to salvage the ducal connection), Lily was sent to Henry to offer solace. It was then that Henry realized the grave mistake with the sisters’ names. He understood he had proposed to the wrong woman, but the true challenge began as Lily, so deeply ingrained with her own worthlessness, simply couldn’t comprehend that he could possibly desire her instead of her “perfect” sister.

THE DAY THE STARS FELL A Sci-Fi Webnovel of Forgotten Skies, Fallen Giants, and a Girl Who Shouldn’t Have Survived They say don't look at the stars, they see you. They say when the stars fall, death follows. She was never supposed to survive. She was never supposed to become one of them. In the broken world of tomorrow, humanity lives split: Below, the Lower Sovereign States — pristine, fortified, and indifferent. Above, the United Upper States — scorched, overrun, and forgotten. Earth’s skies no longer bring hope. They bring Killing Stars — cosmic monsters that descend without warning, obliterating entire cities in thirty minutes before vanishing like ghosts. No one has ever survived a direct encounter… until Gekiko Hershoff, a medic’s foster daughter, caught in the middle of a raid. She didn’t choose the soul. She didn’t ask to inherit the Condemner — a sentient killing star’s internal soul, bonded to her in the chaos of a failed military operation. Now, Gekiko is changing — body, mind, and soul — as an alien presence fuses with her being. Hunted by the Lower States, feared by the surface survivors, and stalked by the very stars that seek to reclaim the soul, Gekiko is caught between worlds. Armed with only a half-functioning mech, her makeshift team of rebels, and a soul that was never meant for her, she fights not just for survival — but for the truth. Because the stars aren't falling randomly. Because someone is calling them. And because somewhere, hidden behind memory and betrayal, lies the man who started it all — someone from her past. As the lines blur between monster and girl, machine and soul, and vengeance and hope — Gekiko must decide: Will she fight for the world that left her behind… …or burn it all down with the stars?
