In a world where every individual awakens their "System" at 18, people are categorized based on the purpose of their System—Warriors, Mages, Artisans, Healers, and other archetypes. However, the male protagonist receives the Archivist System, which is perceived as the weakest. At first glance, it offers only two features: 1. Scan: This ability allows them to analyze people, objects, and environments, extracting data into their "Archive." 2. Store: This feature enables them to store skills, spells, and even memories, though they cannot use them directly. Ridiculed as useless, the protagonist works quietly, building a vast repository of information. As they delve deeper into the Archive, he uncovers hidden functions that enable him to rewrite reality, recreate ancient powers, and even manipulate the System itself.

The rule had always been this way: the strong over the weak, the rich over the poor. Mark knew this, he'd even experienced it. After his boss fired him for discovering the affair with his girlfriend (who also worked at their small gaming company), Mark vowed never to be humiliated like that again. He wanted to rise above everyone, to become the world's top player, the one who made the rules and decided everyone's fate. But that was wishful thinking. He was just a heavyset, nerdy guy with some programming skills and a large appetite. What else did he have going for him? Hit hard by this reality, jobless and dumped, Mark withdrew into gaming, which also became his source of income. One day, after leaving a bad review for a game he played and streamed, he received a strange reply from the game's creator. Suddenly, Mark found himself transported to Aetherium, the world of that same game, as Magnus Lancaster, the young lord of a crumbling territory. Now, with this new beginning, he vowed never to be weak again, never to leave his fate in someone else's hands. Discord: https://discord.com/invite/vvQRGGha9M

Magnus was reincarnated in a magic world. He led a simple life on Earth and that was something he liked rather than being dragged into conflicts or into adventures to save the world or something like that. He never cared to be the MC but hoped that he would have a pleasant life, much better than his previous life. Whether he could or not, read the tales to see. ---

Magnus Valerius is a man who thrives on control. A brilliant yet ruthless strategist, he has built his life around precision, discipline, and the unwavering belief that strength governs all. To the outside world, he is a devoted husband to his wife, Eleanor, and a calculating but respectable father to his two children, Lucian and Selene. But beneath this carefully curated image lies a man who sees the world as a game of power and manipulation—one where only the strongest minds prevail. His younger brother, Adrian, a well-intentioned but anxious police officer, operates under a different philosophy—one that clashes with Magnus’s cold, methodical worldview. When an unexpected turn of events forces the two brothers into each other’s orbits more than ever before, tensions rise, and old wounds resurface. As Magnus finds himself at the precipice of something far greater than even he anticipated, a single choice sets off a chain reaction—one that will test his control, his morality, and the very foundation of the life he has built. Because no matter how intelligent he is, no matter how well-calculated his every move… chaos has a way of finding even the most disciplined minds.

What happens when reality starts to bug out and your life as you know it is flipped upside down? Anomalies that couldn't possibly exist start to pop out of nowhere. This was the exact situation Magnus found himself in after a bizarre glitch yanked him from his own universe and tossed him into another. In this new, fantastical world brimming with magic and supernatural phenomena, Magnus's unexpected arrival landed him in possession of the Command Console, a tool that seems to be able to edit almost anything. With it, Magnus creates a variety of supernatural abilities that defy all common sense, even in a world of fantasy. Whether it was one that granted him truly endless strength or the ability to create detailed simulations of reality within his own mind, anything was possible. But Magnus isn't the only instance of such logic-defying abilities. All over the world, glitches are starting to manifest in weird ways: a brick that could knock anything unconscious with a single touch, a child whose perception of the world could affect reality, or even a woman who was, inexplicably, everyone's mother—there seemed to be no rhyme or reason behind any of them. When faced with all of these chaotic elements, Magnus comes to a decision. "Alright, if these are all glitches, then I'll simply have to be the one to fix them." Release Schedule: Monday, Wednesday & Friday. (Around 7:11 PM Eastern Standard Time) - This novel is also being posted on Royalroad, and can be read here; https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/84118/when-fantasy-glitches The Royalroad version is 10 Chapters ahead and has the original format.

In the year 2149, humanity survives inside a colossal, AI-generated simulation called "The Archive", designed to preserve human consciousness after Earth's collapse. The Archive is structured like an infinite library, with each "book" representing a person's life. But when the Archive's walls begin to crack, monstrous entities called "Narrative Eaters" (resembling biomechanical Titans) emerge to devour stories-erasing people from existence.

When Kael Draven, a curious and slightly naive adventurer, stumbles into the Eclipsed Archive, he meets Elyra Veylen, an elven archivist who has spent centuries tending to the archive’s secrets. Together with Lira Solwyn, a scholarly half-elf; Thorne Ironroot, a practical dwarf; and Zara Nightshade, a witty rogue, they embark on a quest to recover the missing pages of the Celestial Codex, a legendary tome that holds the key to preventing an impending catastrophe. As they explore the archive’s shifting sections and the dangerous pocket dimensions connected to it, the group uncovers ancient puzzles, magical creatures, and forgotten lore. Along the way, they form deep bonds, confront their fears, and uncover the truth about the archive’s origins and Elyra’s connection to it. But as they piece together the Celestial Codex, they realize that the archive is more than a repository of knowledge—it is a prison for an ancient, world-ending entity. In the end, the group must decide the fate of the archive and the world, learning that the true power of the Celestial Codex lies in the connections it fosters between people.

"You may now kiss the bride." But no kiss ever came. I'm ripped from my wedding and thrown into a medieval fantasy world with game-like elements. It may seem like a game, but that doesn't matter to me, because this is my reality. The pain, the hunger, the cold, the fear, it's all real to me. Alone, without knowing why I'm here, in a world where I know nothing and nobody, I decide to buy a Blood Slave to have someone I can trust. She brings me comfort and so much more. She helps me raise my head high again and bravely move forward. Together, we'll grow stronger. Together, we're unbreakable. But she won't be the only one by my side. We need more than just each other, for I know that my purpose in this world can't be accomplished with only her help. Monsters and dungeons plague the land, forcing civilization to protect themselves from the hordes with tall walls and fierce determination. Killing monsters is a daily need, but they aren't the only enemy here. I have a powerful "Gift" that allows me to change my "skill points" at will, but if others were to know about it, there would be many that would try to use me by any means possible. Step by step, moment by moment, day by day, we keep moving forward, always aiming to improve our strength. One day, we'll meet our Fate, and we'll be ready for it. Swords held high, shields tightly strapped to our arms, wings spread apart, spells at the tip of our tongues, minds focused like blades, and our hearts hardened like steel. We'll take on whatever comes our way! --------------------------------------------- *Additional Tags*: Psychological, Romance, Magic, Male Lead, Portal Fantasy/Isekai/Transmigration, Polygamy, Slaves *Content Warning*: gore, profanity, sexual content (male/female, female/female, and human/non-human (*not for the faint of heart*)), traumatizing content *What to expect*: Slow story focused on the day-to-day life of a transmigrated man rather than on the plot.

What if you were transported to another world? Would you have magic, become a hero, or be corrupted by power? As Christopher Roosevelt relies on his wits to survive among sheer strength and Kaori Tanaka wrestles with the moral dilemmas of overwhelming power, the inhabitants of this world – including a mad mage, Magnus Bridge – pursue ruthless paths to achieve their own goals. A tale of ambition, choices, and the limits of humanity.

After the great calamity known as the Collapse turned the world into a desolate wasteland, humanity became a savage and barbaric race that focused only on the survival of the fittest. The once-great innovators who created many advanced technologies now become less than the tribal communities, nomadic scavengers, or ruthless raiders and slavers. Pre-Collapse technologies became taboo, and those who understood the Old Ones, collectively known as the Knowers, became outcasts. This is the story of two girls, the scavenger Snow and the Knower Rain, who seek the mythical place known as the Archive and set off across a brutal and unforgiving world, facing many perils and adventuring through the once-civilized land.

Settings: • The Crimson Court: A grand castle filled with secrets, where Olivia resides as the villainess fiancée of Austin, the Duke’s heir. • The Threads of Eternity: A mystical realm where the "Weaver of Fates" resides, controlling the multiverse. • The Hall of Mirrors: A hidden archive containing reflections of all the timelines Olivia has existed in, showing her repeated deaths. • The Fractured Horizon: A collapsing fragment of the multiverse Olivia's survival has affected, where reality itself starts to fray. Blurb: Transmigrated into the body of Olivia Fairmont, a despised villainess destined to die, she finds herself in a timeline unlike any other. Her fiancé, Austin, fiercely protects her; her brothers, Paul and Tom, refuse to abandon her; and her adopted sister treats her with warmth. Determined to understand why her fate has changed, Olivia uncovers evidence of her countless deaths across timelines. As the multiverse begins to unravel, Olivia learns a horrifying truth: her survival may doom existence itself. Can she rewrite her cursed destiny without sacrificing those she’s grown to love? Exposition: Olivia wakes up in a timeline where everything feels…off. Unlike the villainess life she remembers from her past transmigration experiences, she is loved and cared for by her family and fiancé. Uneasy, she begins to notice strange anomalies—fractures in reality, fleeting memories of deaths she shouldn’t remember, and dreams of threads being cut. Inciting Incident: She discovers the Hall of Mirrors in a forbidden wing of the castle and learns about her deaths across hundreds of timelines. There, she also finds evidence that her survival in this timeline is destabilizing the multiverse. A mysterious entity, the Weaver of Fates, warns her that the timeline must be corrected to restore balance, meaning her death is inevitable. Rising Action: • Olivia begins to investigate the anomaly causing her survival, suspecting Austin, who acts strangely whenever she questions their engagement. • She discovers that her brothers and even her adopted sister are working to protect her, but they seem to be hiding something. • In the Threads of Eternity, Olivia learns a shocking truth: her original soul was the first Weaver of Fates. Her essence split into countless fragments to maintain order in the multiverse, and her survival threatens that delicate balance. • She realizes Austin has been trying to save her across timelines, defying the Weaver’s rules, which explains his unusually strong attachment. Climax: In the Fractured Horizon, Olivia confronts the Weaver, demanding to know why her soul was condemned to endless suffering. The Weaver reveals that her original self chose this role to protect the multiverse. However, her survival in this timeline is creating a ripple effect that could cause irreparable damage. Olivia faces a choice: 1. Sacrifice herself to restore balance and save existence. 2. Fight against the Weaver’s control, risking multiverse collapse to forge her own destiny. Denouement: The resolution depends on Olivia’s choice: 1. Sacrifice Ending: Olivia dies, but her loved ones remember her sacrifice and the multiverse stabilizes. Her essence becomes part of the Weaver once again, but her story inspires change in the rules governing fate. 2. Rebellion Ending: Olivia manages to break free of the Weaver’s control, creating a new multiverse where free will trumps predestination. However, the cost is high—she loses Austin, or the new multiverse becomes fragile, requiring constant vigilance. 3. Bittersweet Ending: Olivia strikes a bargain with the Weaver, surviving at the cost of forgetting her loved ones. She lives on in a new timeline but with no memory of the bonds she formed.

An unkown fugitive fleeing around the country in search of something or someone. A group of men on his trails, chasing him and catching up by the second. And Karl, living inside his lone hut, keeping to himself and studying peacefully... until he gets murdered. But death is only the beginning. After waking up, he has more questions than ever before and something new slumbering within him...

The slaughterers of hell; Children of the Divine Priestess, they brutally defend humanity from the ever-present threat of the hellspawn. For over a thousand years this war has been waged, and for over a thousand years countless amounts of people have fallen. They go by many names — Devil Eaters, Ashrippers, and the whole sort. The name they call themselves, however, takes a much more noble stature. They were Knights. Knights of Torrice. And every last demon would die by their hands. In the remnants of the forgotten records, one ragtag group of soldiers proved to be more influential than their role was to be believed. A boy bound by duty, a man vigored by pride and a killer masked with humanity. Little did they know that fate itself would change with the simple click of their boots. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The Demon Archives is a fantasy epic written for WSA 25. If you enjoy grit, action, sacrifice, bloodshed and more, then consider reading this book and supporting me along the way!

Inspired by written works like Shadow Slave, and hopefully a culmination of all I've learned from writing as a hobby over the past five years.
