"Dragons rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." In this world, power comes from the beast you tame at ten years old. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option, his aging parents sold everything for his chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? The apex predators? Turns out they start small too, so... He’s going to tame everything, every evolutionary line. How? Turns out, his summon isn’t useless after all. Step one: survive long enough to unlock his gift. Step two: tame creatures nobody else dares to touch. Step three: become the strongest tamer the world has ever seen and laugh in the face of those who doubted him. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Because in this world, strength isn’t just about the creature you summon; it’s about the bond you forge, the risks you take, and the will to rise when the world drags you down. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Even better, every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, questionable life choices, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions, over-the-top power fantasy, and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love an underdog, an over-the-top power fantasy, and a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a more serious or a bit grim-dark story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun, taming dragons and expectations.

Ein was a hitman on hire. A killer, a shadow, a death with insomnia, if you may. He had witnessed countless pairs of eyes dim as the light of life faded, leaving nothing but vile hollowness. Needless to say, the sight of a soul popping out of the dead body was a first. And it wasn't just any soul. It was the dead heir of Byers Holdings, the same guy he killed with his own hands. Turns out the rich boy Adriel had a horribly irritating and loud soul, but worst of it all - impossible to get rid of. Who would have thought that killing on a blue moon night could lead to being haunted?

She gave up her dream of shining on the ballerina stage —for him. She sacrificed her self-respect —for him. She forgot her true identity —for him. But even after all that, she couldn’t compare to the woman who held Ryan’s heart. Arwen Quinn, heiress of prestigious Quinn family, realized too late that no matter what she did, she would never win Ryan’s love. The future that awaited her was a life trapped in endless misery of a loveless marriage. So, decisively, she ends their relationship and walks away. What she didn’t expect was that in breaking free from Ryan, she had opened the door for Aiden to enter her life — a chance that he had been waiting for. Aiden Winslow, an enigmatic CEO isn’t just mysterious —he is determined, and won’t allow to take Arwen away from him again. ____ Excerpt: Aiden narrowed his eyes, “Are you sure about this?” “If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t have asked,” Arwen replied coolly. “Stop dawdling. If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept? If yes, we’ll get the certificates now.” “On one condition,” he said. “I don’t do contract marriages. The woman I marry will be the woman I share my bed with. If you agree, then we’ll—” “Not a problem. Let’s go,” Arwen said without letting him finish, pulling him into the Civil Marriage Bureau.

Their marriage is a deal without foundation of love. "Hey! Don't forget the agreement we made, it's just a fake marriage!" She stopped him and said nastily. "Of course I know, but our marriage certificate is real, isn't it?" He chuckled mischievously. He is not only the CEO of the consortium but also has a relationship with the mafia. He looks mysterious, aloof, and unapproachable, but actually, he is devious, tsundere, and narcissistic! She thought he was a gentleman, but after getting married, she realized that he was definitely a complete beast!

In a world consumed by uncertainty, Aruma is randomly chosen for a deadly test: to survive a dimensional dungeon filled with multiple floors, each with its own unique challenges and terrifying creatures. With each floor, Aruma faces increasingly powerful enemies, from swarms of giant insects to frozen beasts and masters of dark arts. As he progresses, he uncovers abilities and strengths he never imagined, relying on his ingenuity and will to endure. The live broadcast of his battles allows the world to watch and comment in real time, giving him the support of strangers and the love of his family, but also the scorn and ridicule of his opponents. Guided by an enigmatic system that rewards him with invaluable skills and items, Aruma explores worlds filled with illusions, powerful creatures, and complex mental challenges. But as he climbs, he realizes that his enemies are not limited to the dungeon itself; other warriors, representatives of different planets and dimensions, also fight to survive, seeing each other as rivals. Amid alliances, betrayals, epic battles, and moments of personal discovery, Aruma learns that in this life-or-death game, true strength is not always found in skill or power, but in the courage to face the unknown and the hope for a future that, though uncertain, still shines before him. Will Aruma overcome the dungeon’s challenges and return home? Or, like so many before him, will he become just another forgotten glimmer in the cruel machinery of an unforgiving game?
