Protagonist Is A Dungeon Master

In a world where the supernatural collides with the ordinary, dungeons—dangerous rifts to other realms—begin appearing across the city, threatening humanity. The Hunter Association, tasked with sealing these rifts, relies on Guides who are psychically linked to Hunters with extraordinary powers. A former soldier, becomes a newly awakened Guide at 27, struggling to adapt to his role. Paired with an S-ranked Hunter, a reckless veteran esper, he faces the daunting challenge of navigating deadly dungeons filled with nightmarish creatures. Their partnership is strained—A disciplined and methodical solider, and an esper who's impulsive and dismissive of rules. As dungeons appear more frequently, each mission tests their limits and teamwork. While the Guide adjusts to his new life and role, the esper wrestles with his haunted past and growing responsibilities. Together, they uncover a disturbing pattern behind the dungeon outbreaks, suggesting a larger, sinister plot at play. Amid the chaos, the guide grapples with losing his former life and his growing attachment to his esper, while the looming danger threatens to push them—and their fragile trust—apart. Every decision they make could determine the city's fate, or possibly the entire world. NOTE: This is a slow-burn light-romance BL. It means there are no mature or sexual themes, and it focuses on action, plot, character growth, and relationships between characters and their adversaries. Cover Art: V.R.

I became a demon lord in a dungeon creation game who needs to have sexual relations with other women to become stronger. So I need to corrupt all the female characters here so I can go back? “I wonder if they can still keep a proud look on their face with a dick inside them!”

I died. That's obvious. But I was reborn. How? Don't ask me. Maybe it was some god. A divine being? Ah- It doesn't matter. My life burned away and now- well I'm stuck here in this black void. This dungeon. Maybe I had lived a pious last life. Laughable as that was. But I was given a second chance. Told to grow my dungeon, to create hulking monstrosities that would destroy the world. In short, I am now a villain. I am the consciousness of the dungeon, the little orb at the end my body. And still I live. A projection of a body is created - a trap - and I am that. I am the one to guide foolish adventurers to their death. My looks are curated. Soft features that entrap the mind. I am the dungeon. I am the projection, I am human, and I am the dungeon. And I will conquer all. Every being will bow before my might. "Before you're cuteness~" Ah- heh- that too... help... I didn't ask to look this cute!

Billions of beings from different dimensions were transmigrated into a game controlled by gods. Numerous planets, each with billions of beings now known as "Lords," all with the same goal... to conquer the entire dimension and become the Lord of Lords. Some lucky Lords gained special traits and talents, while others even transformed into more powerful races. Chop down trees for wood, mine for iron, hunt to survive… and, most importantly, steal territories for the amusement of the gods. Adam was just an ordinary college student when suddenly {SYSTEM PROMPT} (USER TRANSMIGRATION COMPLETE). “VAMPIRE?!?!?!?” “ORIGINAL SIN OF LUST?!?!?!?” “DOUBLE AWAKENING?!?!?!?!?” “I JUST WANTED TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES!!!!” *IF YOU OWN THE COVER ART, PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR REMOVAL* *I’M A NOVICE WRITER AND NOT A NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER, SORRY FOR ANY MISTAKES*

In the grand world of Nova, many different races exist such as elves, humans, dwarves and beastmen and through years of war, strife and competition the world has grown, becoming home to great empires and countries throughout the oceans and five continents. However, to the great creators the world has become stagnant and boring, ever since the calamity that was the Church of Light and their Holy White empire. Now the Dark God has created a new race after years upon years of dedicated effort. A species that is like none other and his hope for Nova’s future….Dungeon cores, beings that have the ability to reshape the very world itself, entering the domain of the gods. Join Frost a newly born first generation Dungeon core as he embarks upon his journey within Nova and carves out his place in the world. How will the world’s current denizens react to his birth? Will they be friends or foes? And most of all how the Light God react to this new addition to the world, will he accept them or seek to destroy them? This novel incorporates dungeon building and management but most of that won't fully take off until the later volumes when Frost has much more floors and money to play around with. This is not a solely dungeon story as the MC Frost will have to explore and interact with the world of Nova much like how an adventurer would and forewarning the story is slow. There's a lot of details and avenues which the story goes into, not simply battles, wars and action, it follows all aspects of Frost's life, his growth and interactions with Nova not only as a Dungeon core but also as a person.

With a party of trusted allies, he defeated the Demon King, he stood at the pinnacle of fame and glory. But when the time came to share the spoils of victory, he learned a cruel truth: His so-called allies, Aelira the gentle healer, Rhogar the steadfast tank, Jorin the playful rogue, and Velena the wise mage, were anything but. "You’re a relic of the past, Cale," they sneered. "We don’t need a Hero in this new world." Betrayed, seen as a dispensable tool. He found himself being pulled into a swirling void, and plummeted into darkness. But fate had other plans. Cale awakened to an ancient power deep within the Abyss: the Dungeon Master System. It whispered promises of revenge, survival, and power unlike anything he’d known before. "Become the hunter, not the hunted. Build a dungeon. Grow stronger. Conquer those who betrayed you." And so began Cale's transformation. From the ashes of betrayal, he emerged no longer just a Hero, but a Dungeon Master, a being capable of building monstrous lairs, commanding terrifying creatures, and a potential to create even worlds, he had the power to devour anyone foolish enough to challenge him. But this new change is unforgiving, and Cale is now a player in a larger, deadlier game, one with ancient factions, and secrets powerful enough to shake the foundations of reality itself. When the hunters become the hunted, when mortals seek to challenge monsters, who will prevail? The Hero is dead. The Dungeon Master rises.

"Ah... I think I'm dying." Caiden’s final breath escaped him as he slumped against the cold, unforgiving earth, his blood pooling like the depths of his regret. The weight of his failure was crushing. This damned life. This cursed story. And damn it all, Lorian. The continent’s golden hero. The shining protagonist. Caiden had been just an ordinary man from Earth. Now, he was stranded on Gaia, a world where steel clashed and magic roared. By Lorian’s side, he fought, forged bonds, won battles, and faced impossible odds. But beneath the surface of their camaraderie, envy festered—poisoning his every thought, drowning him in despair. And then, the betrayal. He turned on Lorian. And everything came crashing down. "Shit..." As darkness closed in, Caiden braced for eternal silence, the cold grip of death taking hold. But then, it all stopped. He woke up. Back where it all began. "... F*ck. Not again." A second chance—he didn’t ask for it, but here it was. Caiden must now navigate a world full of Yokai, rewrite his own fate, and—above all—avoid betraying Lorian a second time. Because, in this story, where he’s nothing but a side character in someone else’s epic, the odds will always be stacked against him.

"Set up all of these hundred items for tomorrow's auction." The lady ordered as she took a seat on her golden throne. "But Miss Li, why do you want to auction off so many things?" "What kind of stupid question is that? Isn't it obvious? I need more money, so auction them all and help me get more money." The Lady said with a shrug. "But Master, you are already a Billionaire. Why you need more money?" The Little Furball asked in confusion. "When you have an entire army of sups, needy familiars and spirit beasts, thousands of disciples and most importantly FIVE SOULMATES AND A BOND MATE to feed and provide for, you will know the answer."
