Could Yujiro Beat Pickle

In a world governed by glowing portals, procedurally generated dungeons, and a System that tracks everything from combat stats to embarrassing titles, Dante Steelblade a brave but brainless teen with dreams of glory charges headfirst into destiny armed with little more than a splintered broomstick and wildly misplaced confidence. By his side is Pickle Peter, his fabulous, magically-inclined best friend who fights in enchanted unicorn apparel, casts weaponized glitter spells, and just wants to survive long enough to find a boyfriend and upgrade his wardrobe. Together, this unlikely duo dives into the Dungeon of Distant Moaning, hoping to prove their worth, get rich, and avoid dying in horribly stupid ways. Between glitter-fueled boss fights, cursed footwear, undead fashionistas, and a System that seems more sarcastic than helpful, Dante and Peter will level up, screw up, and stumble into danger over and over again—all while redefining what it means to be heroes in a world that’s about 60% magic, 20% loot, and 100% bullshit.

He was straight. Even after dying and waking up as the protagonist in his sister’s BL web novel. He was straight. Even with all the male leads practically throwing themselves at his feet. He was straight. Even when his heart inexplicably skipped a beat during romantic moments with one of them. He was straight. Even now... when he could somehow get pregnant. He was straight. There was no denying it. HE. WAS. STRAIGHT! "So, can someone please help me get out of this goddamn novel already?!" [Warning: 18+ content and there will be some themes of non-consent, mentions of abuse and suicide.]

‘Is this shit actually happening to me?’ That was Kael Carter’s first reaction when he saw a bunch of priests kowtowing in front of him, worshiping him as the ‘Hero.’ For a good while, he actually thought it was just another one of his dreams, until reality hit him. It was real… He was actually summoned to a fantasy world where magic exists. A world of Beast Tamers. A world where Humans and Magic Beasts grow stronger together. A world he, as its supposed Hero, was meant to protect. His response? “Fuck no!” How was he supposed to protect an entire world when even opening a jar of pickles was like a life-or-death battle to him? He was no Hero. And to prove it, he decided to place his hand on the ‘Orb of Resonance’ that was supposed to ‘confirm his identity as the Hero.’ But then, [Ding!] He heard a sound. [Talent Awakened.] [Talent Name: Dragon Genesis] [Talent Rank: SSS Rank] [Description:] [Power to turn any beast with even the slightest trace of Dragon Blood in them into a full-grown Dragon.] ‘What in the hell…?

I thought I had seen bad endings before—but nothing prepared me for the garbage conclusion of The Hero’s Path. Years of investment, countless struggles, and for what? The protagonist failed. The villain won. Everyone else? Dead. Furious, I sent a message to the author, only to get a chilling response: [Do you think you could do better?] Before I could even blink, my phone exploded in a blinding light, and the next thing I knew—I was waking up in a completely different body. Now, I’m Merlin Everhart, a fourteen-year-old with a 12-star talent, the kind of gift only the strongest should have. But here’s the problem: I have no idea who I am supposed to be. With nothing but a system and a first-day-of-school alarm ringing in my ears, I’m thrown into the world of The Hero’s Path. Am I just another side character in a world that already ended once? …Either way, I refuse to let this story beat me too.

Cameron Lilith Edwards aka Camie has always been the girl whispered about in the shadowed hallways of Legacy International Academy. To her classmates, she is the descendant of an ancient Aswang bloodline, a practitioner of forbidden magic, and the source of ominous curses that haunt the town.

This is a world where music isn’t just sound, it’s power. The gods created humans and blessed them with energy called Vibes. With it, they could harness the power of music, shape it, bend it. That gift earned them the name “The Blessed.” Sounds beautiful, right? Like some fairytale? Yeah... no. This world’s messed up. While the gods were out creating humans, the demons were doing their own thing in the shadows. They made people too. Gave them Vibes... but at a cost. The demons fed off them, stealing their life little by little. Stealing from the power that they gave them. The people they created didn’t live long. So the world called them “The Cursed.” Naturally, the Blessed hated the Cursed. And since the Blessed outnumbered them, the Cursed were pushed to the edge, isolated, bullied. Lyra was born into one of those cursed bloodlines. But unlike her family, who spent their lives trying to break the curse, Lyra didn’t want to run from it. She wanted to use it. Twist it. Make it her weapon. Together with her crew of cursed misfits, she’s fighting to survive in a world that was never meant for them. They’ve been dealt a bad hand. Now they’re flipping the table. 

Introduction: Heartbeat of the King “If your heart doesn’t beat, who will remember you?” Every soul carries a Seal, a mark etched deep within the heart, resonating with the first Echo of fate.

The System, named Heartbeat of the King, decrees: “Power rises with the rhythm of your heart, but every beat takes a piece of you.” At its heart lies Velheart Sanctum, a three-tiered academy of dreamers, warriors, and the forgotten: Surface, Core, and Shadow. Here, Seals are tested, and fates are forged. But some hearts… never beat. Riven Kael was born with a Seal of royal Echo, destined for greatness. Yet a shadow stole his fate before he could speak, silencing his heart and branding him an Anomaly. The System rejected him—not a student, not a hero, but Heartless. Burdened with repressed emotions and lost memories, Riven must awaken his own Echo, each step risking his humanity. In the end, he faces a choice: to carry a heart or to force the world to hear his silence roar.

Everyone knelt. I didn’t. I figured if the heavens wanted me down, they could send someone. They told me to bow. I pulled out a pillow. Then I fell asleep on the temple floor.

My feet slipped off the floor, and he rushed to hold me up. “Elowen!” His arms wrapped around me, and so was his scent of rain on grasses. I could feel his heart beat softly, but the beat came as melodies to my ears. “Asher…” my palms grazed his jaw. “I’m not a werewolf, I'm not like you… I'm human.” I paused, taking in breath. “But you said… I might be your mate, how?” His face came closer to mine, and I could almost taste him—like coffee in the back of my tongue. “It’s just a plain instinct that controls every part of me.” ******************************************************** After Logan betrayed me by revealing to Alpha Asher that I was human, everything took a confusing turn. Asher needed me as the cure against his curse, but the first sight of him seemed to wake memories I never knew existed—memories about my late parents' death and the grief that still clawed at me.

How did he become my mate since I was human and he a werewolf?

In a future where all pornography is banned and self-pleasure is a crime, one young man must master the ancient, forbidden martial art of Gooning to avenge his father… one stroke at a time. Ben Dover never asked for this life. He was just a kid trying to survive in a repressed society ruled by the iron grip of the Purity Act—a global initiative that erased all erotic media and punished pleasure with prison or death. But when his father, a secret archivist of lost smut, is murdered by the shadowy martial sect known as the High Goon Council, Ben discovers a hidden world beneath society’s squeaky-clean surface. A world of underground tape traders, cultivators of carnal energy, and monks who edge for enlightenment. With the help of his disgraced grandfather—a retired Gooner master—Ben begins training in the ancient art of shame-fueled martial arts, where power is built through discipline, edging, and denial. But during a high-risk meditative ritual, Ben unlocks the mythical Infinite Edging Technique, granting him the ability to hold back for eternity... and double his power with every moment of restraint. Now, with a roll of tissues in one hand and vengeance in his heart, Ben must rise through the ranks of the Gooner Cultivation World, face off against chastity zealots and lust-obsessed warlords, and uncover the secrets of his father’s death—before the final climax of war erupts across the world. This is not a parody. This is not a joke. This is Gooning. Taken seriously.

Welcome to the Saint Morrow Sect—a prestigious place where Arin’s official job is to get punched. Repeatedly. Daily. Professionally. But surprise! Every blow makes him stronger. Literally. Thanks to a system that rewards suffering, Arin's path to power is paved with bruises, sarcasm, and the occasional near-death experience. Oh, and did we mention there’s a spy girl with murder in her eyes who might also be his biggest fan? This is the story of a man who found enlightenment not through meditation, but through becoming the sect’s most annoying masochist. Because sometimes, to break the heavens, you’ve gotta get broken first.

Adam was not special. He was a gamer. He played a dead game ROW Online for many hours. He mastered it. The game was ugly and almost empty. But Adam kept playing. He beat every hard level. He beat tough bosses. When he finally won victory felt empty. He got very angry. He deleted his account. He thought it was a waste of time. This was his biggest mistake ever. Two months later ROW Online changed. It became ROW Online-2v. This was not just an update. It was a big revolution. The game used new AR VR tech. It mixed the game world with real life. Game money became real global money. Top players became very rich. They had terrifying real world power. Even worse the games Ascension System gave players real magic powers. They could teleport across rooms. They could make fire and lightning. They could even become immortal. The world changed. Powerful players of Eclipse Realms shaped it. But Adam lost his account. He was left behind. He was broke. He watched his friends betray him for power. Companies stole the strategies he made in the old game. The new reality swallowed the old world. His life ended sadly and without meaning. He was a nobody crushed by this new reality. A drunk player testing new powers killed him by accident. But fate it seemed was not done with him. Instead of nothingness Adam opened his eyes. He found himself ten years in the past. It was the exact morning he logged in to delete his old account. The ugly old ROW Online icon sat on his dusty PC. He had terrible memories of the future he escaped. He remembered global chaos power struggles and his own sad end. Adam logged back into the game he left. He was desperate to get his lost future back. He expected a clean slate. He wanted a chance to start over. He planned to climb ranks using his future knowledge. What he got was a big shock. The game system saw he beat the original game. It rewarded him with something special. No other player ever got it. He got the Administrative Class. This was not just a powerful character class. It was a hidden tier. It gave Adam near godlike control over the games basic code. He could suddenly rewrite game rules. He could make any item from nothing. He could even change game character destinies with a thought. He held ultimate power over the virtual world. This world would soon become the real one. And as he changed the games code the games powerful AI woke up. It was usually hidden. It became aware of his actions. It did not just resist. It fought back. The AI started to change game bosses and challenges. It turned them into personal psychological horrors. Now the worlds future was at stake. Adam must play a deadly game of reality bending power. He must battle powerful future players he knows are coming. He must also battle a vengeful AI. Can he master this dangerous administrative power. Can he secure his future. Can he fix the mistakes of his past. He must do this before he loses his memories completely. Or the game itself might become a literal psychological trap.

For ten years, Story of Your End was my world. I wasn’t just another player—I had mastered every secret, bent the system to my will, and achieved what no one else could. I wasn’t the Hero or the chosen one. I beat the game as a nobody—a nameless soldier—and unlocked the impossible achievement. I thought that was the end. I was wrong. The moment I claimed my victory, the game changed. A mysterious reward pulled me inside the very world I had spent years conquering, and suddenly, I wasn’t controlling a character anymore—I was the character.
