Rms Olympic Scrapping

Justin Morrow was a man with no goals. Nothing around him made him think they were worth having. Only a fading memory of his dead mother kept him going. “Survive…my…son…” At the bottom of society, Justin lived off crumbs and scraps, the sparks of ambition most clung to were long gone in him, so when the world descended into utter Hell it didn’t faze him. If anything, his life was already there. Gifted an advantage over the entirety of humanity at the very start, maybe—just maybe—the end of the world could finally awaken something inside him. *** Tags: Male MC, Apocalypse, Evolution, Fantasy.

A hundred years ago, the sun’s flames crept hotter and brighter until daylight became a furnace—mankind retreated into the night, and the world was claimed by shadow. In the silence of moonlit streets, water became worship, and three mighty prophets—Children of the Sun, Moon, and Stars—rose from ash to rule with fire-forged faith. No one knows if the Scorch was divine wrath or a cosmic accident, but for a century the faithful have burned heretics, torn nations apart, and lived by ritual “Purification” to prove their worth. Now, sixteen-year-old Ádin survives in a hidden bunker, trading scraps for scraps and precious drops of water. Marked by secret scars that only glow under his skin he lives with Fletcher, his mute golden retriever, and clings to the cryptic lullaby his grandmother left him. Out in the ruins roams Salvator Morgan, a man whose ageless eyes have seen the fall of empires and who whispers rumors of a “true child of prophecy.” When Ádin discovers the first fragment of a hidden map— he realizes he may hold the key to a long-lost salvation. But every step toward the truth draws the attention of the Children of the Stars, a fanatical cult whose young prophet will stop at nothing to claim destiny for himself. As the moon circles high and the ashes swirl, Ádin must decide: cling to everything he’s known, or embrace a perilous path that could either resurrect humanity… or consume him in the flames of betrayal. In a world where water is worship and every lie is branded in blood, survival means choosing whom to trust—and what you’re willing to burn.

He woke up in a white void. No doors. No windows. No memory just a name and a few scraps of identity. Then the world changed. From a sterile, empty space to a medieval room torn out of fantasy. Quiet. Too quiet. But that wasn’t the strangest part. He wasn’t in his body. His reflection showed a man with red eyes, blood-soaked skin, and a smile he didn’t recognize. A revolver on the ground, an empty chamber, bullets in his pocket and not a single clue why. With no phone, no documents, and no idea who he really is, he begins a slow descent into a web of doubt, identity, and dangerous possibilities. Did he kill someone? Was he reborn in another world? Or is he simply smarter than the fools who designed this illusion? Follow a man trapped between reality and imagination, chasing the truth behind the blood, the body, and the twisted question that haunts him: Is he brilliant or are they just stupid?

Jaden Cross is a young man trying to survive in the shadows of Neo-Lagos, a futuristic city where the poor live in broken homes and forgotten slums. Orphaned at six and forced to grow up fast, Jaden spends his days fixing scraps and dreaming of a better world—a world he believes he’ll never see. Until one night, everything changes. A mysterious glowing orb appears in the sky and connects with Jaden’s mind, activating the Tech Architect System—a powerful, sci-fi interface that gives him access to futuristic blueprints, instant-building tools, and system quests that reward him for solving real-world problems. His first quest? Restore power to his neighborhood using solar microgrids. Soon, Jaden is building cooling shelters, clean energy systems, and AI-run apartments—one project at a time. But with each success, he draws more attention. The city’s leaders want to control him. A rival from the tech underworld wants to steal the system. And darker forces are watching from the skies, waiting for the Architect to grow. Armed with only his mind, his hands, and the Tech Architect System, Jaden must rise from the ruins of poverty and become the builder of a new future. But in a city full of secrets, will he remain its hero… or become its biggest threat?

Trained by her grandmother, once a forgotten star in the world of ice dancing, Maya dreams of rising beyond her father's disapproval and one day stepping onto the Olympic stage. After a personal tragedy, Maya leaves home to chase that dream, arriving at the Silver House — an elite academy led by the cold and enigmatic coach, Lian Victor. Earning a place won't be easy. To prove herself, Maya must fight through grueling routines, relentless expectations, and a coach who sees more than he says. But on the frozen path ahead, she’ll discover that her greatest challenge lies not in the ice beneath her feet — but in a buried past waiting to surface.

Even as an orphan, Ash had it all. Top of his academy. Admired by men and women. Sponsors lined up to claim him. Until his affinity test revealed him to be A null. Affinity-less. Magicless. He was thrown out like garbage. Exiled like a plague-bearer. Abandoned in a mutant-infested wasteland, Ash was meant to die quietly. Forgotten, like a torn scrap of paper. Instead, he found something. A sickness that loved him. A god that claimed him. A forest that remade him. He walked out of the wasteland with a new faith. And now, he’s here to heal the world. One infection at a time. ============================= TLDR : 1. Surviving sickness/poison/venom/curse = awaken power. 2. Poison A + Venom B = New disease! = New power! 3. MC is a cult leader!? He can 'bless' his followers with diseases!? 4. Wasteland is not ordinary wasteland!? It's actually Earth's *** !? Gain more power related to bio*** !!?!

The West Coast, bathed in its free air, greeted me with a brutal awakening. One moment, my world was familiar; the next, I was an 'urban explorer' – a homeless man – cast onto the unforgiving streets. I opened my eyes to nothing. No dog, no identity, no tent – not even shoes on my feet. Just beach shorts and the harsh concrete beneath. My only stroke of luck: the Daily Intelligence System, inexplicably tied to my phone, a lifeline in this new, desperate existence. The messages flashed: [Daily Intelligence:] The club at 134th Watson Street has a trove of recyclable cans and transparent beverage bottles in the green trash can in the alley. [Daily Intelligence:] There are unfinished hamburgers, 7 flowers, and an unopened bottle of Pinot Noir in the red trash can at 96th Street. [Daily Intelligence:] Your neighbor Jesse has a scratch card worth $5,000 in his tent! [Daily Intelligence:] Mike's Scrap Collection Station sells a 1976 GMC Hiking RV, parked in the suburbs for 20 years, for a low price of $200. Details: Someone at Old Pick's Auto Repair Shop can repair it. Shit! This wasn't life; it was a goddamn scavenging game. From the raw, unforgiving streets of America, Alan resolved to play the game – and fight for a better tomorrow.

I was nothing—just a broke delivery guy sleeping in a parking garage. My girlfriend dumped me. My boss fired me. My so-called friends laughed as I begged for scraps. Then, the Wealth Domination System awakened. [System Activated: Task—Crush Your Rival. Reward: $10,000. Unlock Bonus: VIP Investment Access.] From petty change to penthouses… from street rat to CEO… I began my ruthless climb. Now, the girl who left me wants back. The billionaire who mocked me begs for partnership. And every deal I touch turns to gold. But wealth has its price—and so does revenge. I won’t stop until I own everything they denied me. This is my rise. This is domination.

WSA 2025 ENTRY Bound To The Alphas, Marked By Four Ava was never meant to matter. Born an omega in a world where only the strong are respected, she was always at the bottom—especially in the Nightshade Pack. After her parents died under strange circumstances, people whispered that she was to blame. She was just a scared little girl, but no one cared. So when her cruel uncle and his greedy wife sold her to pay off a debt, no one stopped them. She was sold to four powerful alphas—to work as their maid. For years, Ava cleaned up after them, made their food, and lived off scraps. She was punished for things she didn’t do. To them, she was nothing. Just a maid. A burden. Worthless. But fate had other plans. Everything changed on her 20th birthday. That’s when she found her mate. Omegas like her didn’t get mates. But she didn’t just get one. She got all four. And even more shocking? She’s the only one who can give them an heir. Now the alphas want her. The same men who once looked at her like she was nothing… now look at her like she’s everything. They broke her. And now they want to fix her? At first, she wanted to reject them all. Make them feel the pain she had carried in silence for years. But then she thought— Why reject them… when she could have them all?

In a place filled with desperation, filth, and deception, survival remains the singular goal for all those who call the slums home. The game was to outlive everyone else, to see who could collect the most scraps and live to see the next day, where a slight shift in stakes was the determining factor between life and death. Rune is no exception to this grim game, but his stakes are higher; he is playing for two. With his sister and himself to care for, keeping hunger at bay for even one person is a struggle, and adding another makes it nearly impossible—a precarious tightrope he often teeters on. Each day, Rune barely manages to evade death, but what happens when the rules of the game shift, when a whole other world of mana, authority, and society suddenly exists? When myths transform into reality, and the legends of the ancients are no longer mere whispers in children's tales? What unfolds when a long-dormant threat creeps into the hearts of all who live?

When the world ended, Clayton Hunt was just another street survivor scavenging for scraps, fighting for breath in a crumbling society on the edge of ruin. Then the sky cracked open, and the Genesis Protocols began. Dragged into Echoterra, a nightmarish trial world where survival rewrites your very soul, Clayton awakens. Not as a man, but as a seed… a goddamn seed! Stripped of his body, his memories locked behind suffocating layers, he must claw his way upward from the dirt, evolving into something far beyond human. The first trial is brutal and simple. ~----~ [Expand your territory to 100 square meters or die!] ~----~ Facing monstrous rivals, parasitic invaders, and the harsh reality of nature’s cruelty, Clayton battles not only to grow but to dominate; harnessing a feral, plantlike instinct he never knew lurked inside him. Along the way, fragments of his past leak through, reminding him who he was… and hinting at the terrifying power he might yet awaken. But survival isn’t enough. In a world where strength writes the law and weakness spells extinction, Clayton won’t just grow. He’ll thrive. And when he finally returns to the real world, it won’t be as a scavenger. It will be as a conqueror.

Buried under myths, magic, and lies… was a civilization that made gods look primitive. When I woke up in this broken world, I was no hero. Just another scavenger searching the sands for scraps. Until I touched the relic. Until the memories bled through. Now I remember algorithms masked as spells, reactors mistaken for gods, and a war so advanced it reset the world. They think I’m lowborn. They think I’m powerless. But every time I breathe, the past awakens—and with it, the truth that could break this world again. History is a lie. Magic is technology. And I… am the last Reclaimer. — A viral fusion of reincarnation, ancient tech, and twisted memory recovery. Perfect for fans of "Shadow Slave," "Release That Witch," and "The Beginning After The End." PS:- i don't own any of the book names written above except mine.

Banished to the Eastern frontlines as a worthless noble disgrace, Gilbert Reinhardt was destined to die — a mere tutorial NPC (side character), in a brutal game of war.

With a poor defenseless village, constant never-ending war, a mocking system, Gilbert must rewrite fate itself… or be devoured by the monstrous world he never chose.

Jiang Ci was once an ordinary player—forgettable, underpowered, and ultimately killed in battle. But fate gives him a second chance.

While guilds struggle through raids, he builds a trading network, manipulates potion prices, and establishes the Jiang Trading Company, shaking the entire in-game economy.

Until one day, the system announces: “The Merchant Throne shall be crowned. The victor will hold the power to control the game’s economy.” Jiang Ci smiles coldly. “You made the rules. I’m just the one profiting from them. Now—this game? I run it.”

[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.

In a world of magic and abilities, where the strong are revered by the masses and Hunters are treated like gods—Lucien was just a dungeon cleaner. E-rank. Invisible. Average. A loser. Obsessed with Hunters and dreaming of becoming one, but barely surviving on scraps with his crappy rank. Until a cleanup job went wrong—and he died. Or so he thought. [SYSTEM INITIATED] > Do you want to live? - YES - NO One answer, and everything changed. "W-What is this... this isn’t my body!" The reflection staring back at him was… shorter. Hotter. A face too pretty to be his. [SYSTEM PROMPT] > Do you want to return to your old life? "YES!" Then... [SYSTEM MISSION] > Seduce the strongest S-Class Hunters. Current affection points: (0/1000) "...Excuse me—WHAT?!" And so, the story begins—with a loser trapped in a ridiculously hot stranger’s body, held hostage by a mysterious system that demands one thing: Seduce the top two strongest Hunters… or die trying.

MATURE CONTENTS WARNING! In the kingdom of Faelori, where pure-blooded fae have driven humans to near extinction, Faelyn lives as the most despised creature of all, a half-blood abomination born from her human slave mother and the Fae King’s moment of weakness. She has endured relentless torture, starvation, and humiliation. Servants beat her bloody for sport. Her own half-brothers force her to crawl like a dog for their amusement. Even the kitchen scraps are denied to her as she wastes away in the shadows of the very castle where she was born. But when half-blood meets dragon fire, when the weakest collides with the strongest, when hatred burns into something far more dangerous… Some bonds are forged in blood and cannot be broken. In a world where power determines worth and bloodlines decide fate, two souls—one broken, one caged—will either destroy each other completely… or burn the entire kingdom to ash.

In the forgotten corner of the empire lies Emerald Ridge City, a place where spiritual energy is thin and ambition thinner. Here, the weak are trampled beneath the boots of the three clans clawing for scraps of power. In this city lives Lian Xue, a blind girl born into the Lian Clan — a girl considered a burden to her family name and deemed worthless in all aspects. Her life only becomes worse when her family informs her of her engagement to Young Master Jin — a lecherous, cruel heir to a merchant-cultivator clan. The match is nothing more than a transaction. The Jin Clan seeks access to the Lotus Palm, a modest art that, while dismissed by the greater world, happens to be the strongest technique in a city as insignificant as Emerald Ridge. The Lian Clan, desperate to improve its fortunes and end years of grudges, sees the marriage as a way to secure an answer to both problems. Lian Xue is simply the price — an unwanted girl offered up for convenience. Shattered by the news, Lian Xue ventures into the Emerald Mountains with only one wish: that some lurking beast will end her wretched life. Either fortunately or unfortunately for her, fate had other plans. She discovers a pool of blood — one that will change her life forever. What begins as a struggle to survive soon becomes the first step on a path paved with treachery, sect wars, ancient secrets, and the endless hunger of powers that were never meant for mortal hands. With every drop of blood she claims, the question grows sharper: Is Lian Xue mastering these dark powers… or are they mastering her? In a world where strength is truth and the heavens turn a blind eye, the blind maiden will make them all see through the veil of crimson she weaves.

SHE WAS THE PRINCESS—BUT NEVER HIS DAMSEL IN DISTRESS. Leina Reinhardt was born into power, privilege, and prestige—the only daughter of a multi-billionaire and the beloved sister of Westdentia’s most elite men: Lester – A cold, calculating CEO with an empire at his feet. Levy – A six-time Olympic champion, untouchable and unstoppable. Liam & Louis – The twin masterminds behind the world’s most powerful gaming empire. To the world, she was the Reinhardt Princess—elegant, quiet, untouchable. But Leina Reinhardt was no fragile flower. She was raised by wolves, after all. Then came Alexander Harris Smith. Her brothers’ best friend. Her first love. Her greatest heartbreak. The boy who lit up her world—only to disappear and leave her in the dark. Now, years later, he’s back, standing in front of her like a ghost from the past. And worse? He has the audacity to question her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------------------ Excerpt: Leina's fingers curled into fists, nails biting into her palms. Every muscle in her body screamed at her to walk away. To leave him standing there like he left her all those years ago. But damn him—he had the nerve to show up now, with those same emerald eyes, as if he had any right to look at her that way. "What did you expect, Alexander?" she seethed, voice sharp as glass. "That I’d wait? That my world would freeze the moment you walked away?" His jaw clenched. She could see the storm raging behind his eyes, but she refused to care. "You left," she said, her voice breaking despite her best efforts. "You. Left. And now you think you can just come back and—" Her words died in her throat as he moved, his hands gripping her arms, pulling her close before she could stop him. "Let go," she hissed, her voice defiant—but her body betrayed her, memories clawing their way to the surface. Alexander’s grip tightened, his forehead pressing against hers, breath unsteady. "I know I don’t deserve it," he murmured, voice raw. "But hate me, curse me, hit me—just don’t tell me you forgot." Leina’s breath hitched. Her throat burned. She wanted to slap him. She wanted to scream that she didn’t care. She wanted to say that he meant nothing. But the lie wouldn't come. Because the truth was brutal. She remembered everything. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billionaire mafia intrigue with power struggles and dark secrets Unforgettable first love turned into a dangerous obsession A fierce heroine who refuses to be a pawn A dangerously devoted hero who will burn the world for her Get ready for a story of power, betrayal, and a love that refuses to die.
