In the distance the silhouette of an abandoned castle can be seen luminated by the pale full moon high in the sky. After long and hard days of journey, Ion Goia came across a tiny and shabby hamlet and with no other choice, pressed by the howls(of what he hopped to be wolves) and other such strange cries heard far in the dark forest around him, this rundown village seems like a better choice than to camp out in the wilds. He enters the village and makes his way to what seems to be the only Inn around here, tough its a little more than a tavern. The innkeeper welcomes him warmly and over a cup of wine spins a tale of a legendary ghost hunter.

Disclaimer: This novel is a cliché Suggestion: If you like (Slice Of Life) with wonderful parents and survival, this is for you. *** Like every (Isekai) protagonist, I got reincarnated after getting hit by a hyper-speed truck.

In this new world, I had parents, amazing ones at that. My father was a talented mage, and my lovely mother was a sharp and cunning merchant. Ignoring all of my weirdness, they loved me unconditionally. This was the life that anyone would love. Eating and cooking delicious food, practicing archery and magic, and playing with my parents. Everything was wonderful until... those demons separated us and it left me in a ferocious forbidden forest, just to be eaten alive by beasts. But dying wasn't even a question. I will go back… to them. * The novel cover is not mine. https://discord.gg/ExYHhhv4mn Still lacking but, join if you want~! The update will be mostly 1Ch/day.

This ain't my first rodeo in space after all! Except... Apparently my crew members are weird? The guy who bumped into me yesterday was found sliced up and floating outside the space station. The girl who tried to honeytrap me was reported missing with only a finger found in an alley. And then that merchant who scammed me had his entire ship blasted into bits by unknown vessels the very next day. Some people say my crewmates were behind it but they must be mistaken, right? I only know one thing for sure... In space, no one can hear you scream... *** Notes: Any R-rated scenes will be denoted by a '*' followed by an 'R' with the number of 'R's showing how much of it is R-rated.

Elliot is reborn five years into the past, carrying with him the regret of a lifetime. In his previous life, he sold the gaming console for New World to fund his mother’s medical treatment, only to lose her when the money fell short. This time, he is determined to rewrite fate. Diving into the revolutionary VR game New World, Elliot makes a bold choice: he selects the rare hidden class—Shady Tycoon. This isn’t a class for heroes or warriors. A Shady Tycoon cannot attack or learn combat skills, relying solely on hired bodyguards for protection. His passive abilities grant him economic advantages, such as tax-free trading, a portable stall system, and double inventory space, but it’s his wit and cunning that make this class truly shine. By manipulating resources, exploiting loopholes, and controlling the in-game economy, Elliot turns his perceived weakness into a money-printing empire. With the clock ticking, Elliot’s goal is ambitious—earning $500,000 in just seven days to save his mother’s life. From buying “useless” beginner items to flipping the game’s economy on its head, his unorthodox approach sends ripples through New World. Top guilds, legendary players, and even billionaires are drawn into his web of gold coins and brilliant schemes. But his limitations create endless opportunities for creativity and chaos. As a non-combatant class, every encounter forces Elliot to outsmart his rivals, negotiate with his enemies, and rely on his summoned bodyguards in ingenious ways. His strategies are as ruthless as they are ingenious, earning him the reputation of the most infamous tycoon in the game. “In New World, I don’t just follow the rules—I write them. And the one rule that matters? Money is everything.” Join Elliot as he rises from nothing to dominate the virtual and real worlds alike, proving that even in a game of heroes, the smartest merchant can be king.

After getting hit by a runaway car, Simon wakes up in a mysterious alley with nothing but a black notebook and a key in his pocket. He soon discovers that he's made an unwitting deal with an ancient underworld merchant—he must now become the new keeper of a shop that sells supernatural goods. From magical herbs that boost life expectancy to soul contracts and shadow potions, Simon must learn to navigate a hidden world that coexists with our own. With each trade he makes, his powers grow—his “Merchant System” grants him unique skills and abilities based on the value of items sold or acquired. As Simon dives deeper into this clandestine market, he realizes that he's dealing not only with mythical beings but also with the dangers of the bargains themselves. Every transaction has a cost, and not all customers are human. The shop also acts as a bridge between the living and the dead, meaning some of Simon's clientele come from realms best left unexplored.

Twelve Thrones is a tale of twelve kingdoms, each with its own perspective, allowing you to follow one, multiple, or all as you decide who you want to see triumph in the end. But remember—this is a story of war, power, and ambition, and not all kingdoms will survive to the end. Twelve Thrones: Rali Perspective tells the story of Rali, a land ruled by the Merchant King, where war and trade define its past and present. From the rise of powerful trade networks to the battles fought to protect them, Rali’s history is one of ambition and calculated risks. Its leaders strive to balance prosperity and power while facing enemies who seek to undermine their dominance. The first 25 chapters will cover Rali's history, uploaded weekly on Mondays at noon. Afterward, the main story begins with shorter chapters (1–2 per week) focusing on the present day. Unlike the history chapters, the story won’t have dates and will follow one character—you’ll need to piece together the timeline through character interactions and events. I recommend reading the series in date order to fully grasp the unfolding history. If the story gains popularity, I might include a date order map on each perspective.

A future world ruled by AI. Humanity has been relegated to a position beneath AI, forming a society strictly governed at the genetic level. My name is Kohaku. I am what they call a "bug"—someone immune to the control of the nano-AI residing within my body. Fearing me as a disruptive element in their perfectly equal society, the nano-AI deemed me a threat and executed me. But immediately after my death, I was reincarnated in an old, decrepit hut. Still carrying the nano-AI within me, I was forced to restart my life as a slave in this new world. This world is divided into rigid hierarchies, with nobles, merchants, and the lower classes. The further down you go, the harsher and more oppressive life becomes. In my previous life, in a world utterly controlled by AI, absolute equality meant that every human was reduced to a single, indistinguishable existence. There was no one superior, and no one inferior. Now, in this deeply unequal society, I have resolved to seek freedom and rise to the top. Can I use the abilities of the AI within me to claim "freedom" in this world? This is the story of a man from an ultimate world of equality who strives to rise and achieve freedom in a world of ultimate inequality. *** [A/N: Also publishing in royalroad.com by the pen name: Puito.]
