Rebirth of the Ruthless

Kazuki was a loner, an ordinary young man who lived in the shadow of the world, always unnoticed and disconnected from those around him. Life passed him by in the mundane, without excitement or companionship, until a mysterious force pulled him into a new world—a sprawling ancient fantasy realm teeming with magic, supernatural forces, and powerful beings beyond imagination. At first, Kazuki was full of hope, thinking he’d finally been given the opportunity for something greater. However, this new world was no paradise. Betrayed by those he trusted, abandoned to die in a brutal struggle for survival, Kazuki faced his darkest moment... but death wasn’t the end. Reborn with a new awareness, Kazuki returned to life in this strange world, stronger and wiser than before. No longer the passive, trusting soul he once was, he has now become something much more dangerous—a man with a new resolve and a thirst for power. His once-lonely existence is filled with purpose, and now he walks a darker path. Vengeance burns in his heart as he begins his quest to discover the truth behind his betrayal and the mysteries of this world. Kazuki is not alone in this journey. By his side is Seraphina, a cunning and ruthless slime with the ability to shift between forms. Her cute and playful nature hides her true potential in battle—where she’s ruthless and terrifying, able to absorb, copy, and steal the abilities of those she faces, making her an indispensable companion. Together, they form a dangerous duo, each feeding off the other's hunger for power. The world Kazuki now inhabits is unlike any he’s ever known. This ancient realm is divided into multiple regions, each filled with unique magic, supernatural beings, and towering cities lost to time. From towering wizards who command the elements, to warriors blessed by the gods, and strange creatures of myth that lurk in forgotten lands, this world is a place where the strong survive, and the weak perish. Magic and superpowers flow through the veins of the land, shaping the lives of its inhabitants. Ancient mysteries lie hidden within the ruins of lost civilizations, where powerful relics and long-forgotten spells await those bold enough to uncover them. But Kazuki soon learns that he is not the only one who has been summoned to this realm. Other powerful individuals from various worlds—be they summoned heroes, legendary warriors, or gods cast down from their celestial thrones—are brought here either by fate, chance, or force. Some arrive with dreams of conquest, while others merely seek a way home. These Isekai-ed warriors hold powers that could shatter the very fabric of reality, and Kazuki will face them in battles for survival, alliances, and dominance. As Kazuki delves deeper into this strange and brutal world, he discovers an unknown power lying dormant within him—an ability that no one, not even the gods of this world, fully understands. With each battle, his strength grows, and the dark potential within him starts to awaken, making him a force to be reckoned with. He and Seraphina are drawn into a web of interdimensional conflicts, where beings from other worlds clash for control, power, or simply survival. Kazuki’s rebirth grants him not only a second chance but a path to becoming something far greater—perhaps even the one who could reshape this world, or destroy it. With new companions, formidable foes, and hidden powers, Kazuki must navigate a dangerous world filled with supernatural forces, treacherous alliances, and ancient secrets. Will he rise to become the master of his destiny, or will he fall once again, betrayed by those who seek to control his newfound power? In this world of magic, gods, and monsters, only the strongest will survive—and Kazuki is determined to claim his place among them.

I’d Rather Not Be the Hero (But I Guess I Don’t Have a Choice?)

Kazuki Takahashi was living a monotonous, stressful life in modern Japan, filled with nothing but endless work and sleepless nights. That was, until he unexpectedly dies from overwork and wakes up in a strange new world—one filled with magic, mythical creatures, and deadly battles. Reincarnated as a "hero," Kazuki discovers he’s been tasked with saving the world from a Demon King and his seven powerful generals. However, there’s a twist—unlike the other heroes summoned, Kazuki has no magic. Instead, he possesses extraordinary physical abilities that make him overpowered, even without casting a single spell. But there’s one problem: Kazuki doesn’t care about being a hero. All he wants is to live a peaceful life, free from the stresses that plagued him in his past world. Alongside his eccentric companions—like the fierce sword-woman Serena, the witty mage Leo, and others yet to be met—Kazuki embarks on a journey across a world of guilds, rankings, and deadly monsters. As he tries to avoid conflict, Kazuki faces challenges from demons, monsters, and even fellow heroes from other worlds, all while wrestling with his role in this dangerous adventure. With comedic encounters, moments of heartfelt connection, and a brewing storm between the forces of good and evil, Kazuki’s new life is anything but quiet. Will Kazuki accept his fate as the savior of this world, or will he continue to avoid his destiny for as long as possible? A blend of fantasy, action, and comedy, *The Lazy Hero’s Escape Plan* is the ultimate story of an overpowered hero who just wants to enjoy his second chance at life.

On Top of the Food Chain

After a fateful accident, Kazuki's life is shattered when he begins to suspect he has become a Ghoul, a creature that feeds on human flesh. As he delves deeper into the shadowy world of Ghouls, Poachers and Awakened, he learns something worse. The truth is—he's a Ghoul-Devourer, a rare being that must consume other Ghouls to survive. To survive the horrors of this new life, he must hunt, kill, and consume his way to the top of the food chain. But as his humanity slips away, will he succumb to the monster he fears or become the ultimate predator? Also, the strongest Ghoul of the past era has taken him as a disciple. *** What to expect: - Unique Power System(s) - Weak to strong to OP. - 0 Confidence MC turns into a Cold and Calculating Anti-Hero. - Only One Love Interest - Climax which leaves more Questions than Answers (Will be Answered in upcoming stories set in the same verse) *** The end of Part 1 of Vol 1 (Ch-25) is where I'd say the real story starts. The end of Part 2 of Vol 1 is where the Protagonist would become cold and calculative. The starting chapters will feel very Tokyo Ghoulish, and trust me that's intentional as that heavily inspired me, but please don't drop this until you reach further ahead in the story. This story shapes up the world I'm trying to create, filled with different factions, goals, and the threads of fate guiding them. If you are giving this a chance then I'm very thankful. *** I'll be uploading 5 chapters every week!
