Benjamin Button

Benjamin Taklaw, a Filipino high school student who dreams of being a bus driver like his father, got killed by Truck-kun. He thought his life would be over, and his soul would be in the afterlife. But, he was given another chance to live his again, this time, as a bus driver in…a fantasy world? He literally woke up on a bus in another world as a young bus driver. Grasping on that opportunity, he, as a 16-year-old boy and bus driver named Russell May, is now living his new life in a new strange world, filled with monsters and magic. Along the way, he took in a snow village girl named Azalea, a low-ranked adventurer named Adrian Paulton, who was betrayed by his hero party in a dungeon, and a pair of twin dragon girls, Rai and Ria. They are now his new party and family. Together, they traveled the world through routes, picking up passengers of different races and socioeconomic backgrounds and dropping them off at their destinations of different kinds. Also, he discovered that he wasn’t alone in being reincarnated in that world: he was part of a class of creatures known as Renad. That group has different backgrounds of their previous lives, different ways they died, and best of all, different abilities, skills, and even equipment. And also, the fantasy world will have evil entities and an organization named the Square Order of the Squirrel, whose primary goal is to free the demon king, Malarka, from the seal that sealed him 1,000 years before.

She is a thief that doesn't have any intention to stop stealing. A word alone from him can put her to her early grave. He is the president of U.S.A, and he caught her stealing by chance. His most hated misconduct. She is his first law breaker since he got elected as president. Is there any possible means that she may survive his wrath?

Billie never planned to work for an arrogant billionaire, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Drowning in debt, she lands a job at the Knight penthouse, determined to keep her head down and earn a decent living. But Lexus Knight—cocky, ruthless, and infuriatingly handsome—seems hell-bent on making her life miserable. When Lexus makes a bet with his best friend—if he can go a full week without firing Billie, he wins a hefty prize—Billie sees an opportunity. If she pushes his buttons enough to get fired, she’ll walk away with a million shillings. Game on. Just when Billie thinks she’s free of Lexus, fate throws them back together in the most unexpected way. Lexus’s grandfather’s will changes everything: to inherit his empire, Lexus must marry before turning 35. Meanwhile, Billie has her own vendetta—her cheating ex is happily married to her former best friend, and what better revenge than showing up with a billionaire husband? A deal is struck. A fake marriage that benefits them both. But Billie is the queen of driving a man insane, and Lexus is the king of clapping back. Will they survive marriage without tearing each other apart… or will their rivalry turn into something neither of them saw coming? Trigger Warning: Broke girl with debts, Extremely rich guy, panty thief.

At the heart of a wish lies an attempt at completion, a human desire to become our true and final selves. Wishes are fuelled by regrets and are bound eternally to the past, serving as approximations of what once was. We all experience regret and nostalgia, leading us to make wishes and find despair, but can we become our true selves despite this all? That's where the story of a girl who struggles to control her desires begins... Two souls sharing the same body and memory are living in Kyoto 2031. Tang-Ji Shizukesa, a girl who's grown up in her previous life with a hardcore passion for gaming, is now a bookworm in her new life who has no interest in video games. Along with her, Kazami and Hoyeon, the three childhood friends who separated 7 years ago due to an accident, have now been reunited again in a VRMMORPG game known as Dusk Protocol. The game has a unique combat system known as "Leere," a physical manifestation of an individual soul that can be conjured into deadly weapons. As Tang-Ji navigates this virtual world, she confronts the echoes of her past and the dissonance between her former self and her present identity. How will she cope with the rediscovery of a life she thought she left behind? How will Kazami and Hoyeon react to the new Tang-Ji? In a world where reality is malleable and death is just a click of a button away, the boundaries between past and present blur, forcing everyone to grapple with the truth of who they truly are.

"Chu Zhaoyang, what are you doing unbuttoning?" Gu Nian stepped back. Chu Zhaoyang unbuttoned the last button of his shirt, "Sleep." "But it's daytime now, hey... weren't you going to sleep? Let me go first..." To outsiders, everyone thought that Master Chu was cold and face-paralyzed as if he didn't have any expression, but they didn't know that he was kidnapped when he was young and had nightmares every night. It wasn't until he met Gu Nian, that he suddenly felt that sleeping was quite enjoyable... He knew that there was someone living in her heart, and even if that person would never come back, all he had to do was to drive that person away and change the tenant in her heart. However, the person who should have been dead came back..... He said pitifully, "Gu Nian, I seem to be homeless." But Gu Nian pointed at his heart: "When you moved in, I signed a lifetime residence agreement with you." He laughed. ....................................................

Tropes: - Rëvërsë Häräm - R18 - LGBT+ - Badass Morally-Grey MC - BD$M - System - Revenge - Rebirth - Rich Family Members - Hot Ex-in-laws - Those Green Tea and White Lotus Bitchës - Crazy Best Friend - Gangs/Organised Crime - Superpowered - Forced Proximity - Face-Slapping In her first life, Daria idolised her boyfriend, Rain, and ignored the flying red flags flashed in her face, the dubious friendship between her best friend Molly and Rain shoved to the back of her mind because she wasn't going home and couldn't afford to leave. At least, that is what she likes to tell herself. Until she returned from work early, a string of strange news alerts of people attacking each other worldwide forced her sweet boss to send everyone home for the day. Fighting the crowds of others running home, narrowly avoiding what she knew was a Zombie only to find out that Molly had accidentally fallen on top of Rain, repeatedly for months in her bed. Had they so quickly forgotten that this bed was brought with her clean money in her house? Apparently not, and in Daria's grief, she had awoken the power to control lightning and found herself seconds away from "accidentally" killing her snake of a partner. The other end of the snake had snuck up behind her and knocked her out. Now they had her house, locking her in the safe room and removing all the food, water, and exit buttons. When they tried to sell her to a research lab, she managed to blow up her safe room and force the door to open. But when she ran the several long streets towards her mom's hotel, she was turned away at the door by her stepdad, and he watched her get dragged away kicking and screaming, never to be seen again. She survived another year in the research institute, closer to looking like a mental asylum, being injected and subjected to strange tests before it was overrun, and they were left to die. In her second life, she won't be so short-sighted, and her boyfriend, best friend, stepdad and the entire institute will die and become a part of her system horde and her twisted relationship with a fellow patient from her first life will set them on the path of revenge and victory.

Isabella was supposed to be sipping champagne at a luxury spa, not waking up in the middle of a forest. Worse, a SYSTEM had attached itself to her like some clingy ex, spouting nonsense about survival, quests, and—oh, hell no—manual labor. "System, I was NOT built for the wilderness! My ideal ‘roughing it’ experience involves a five-star hotel with bad WiFi!" Now, instead of lounging in silk robes, she’s being ordered to farm? To hunt? "A farming quest? You want me—a city girl—to grow food? System, I once killed a cactus by overwatering it. This is NOT my calling!" And don’t even get her started on the hygiene situation. "You want me to bathe in a cold river? Darling, I require warm water, scented oils, and an ambience! What do I look like—some barbarian?!" Unfortunately, the locals—big, muscular beastmen—don’t seem to understand the concept of self-care. The women? Neglecting their skin like it’s a crime to be radiant. The men? Walking hygiene disasters. "Ladies, if your man can smell you before he sees you, we have a problem." "You see this? This is lotion. It exists so you don’t look like a dried-up leaf. Use it." "A beard should be majestic, not tragic. Let me fix it." And the beastmen? They don’t just stare at her like she’s an oddity. No, they hover. They smirk. They lean in too close, fangs flashing with amusement. "Why do you keep looking at me like that?" she huffed, crossing her arms. The panther grinned, his tail flicking. "Because you’re fascinating when you’re annoyed." No, absolutely not. She was not here for this nonsense. "If you have time to stare, you have time to moisturize." She didn’t ask to be here. She didn’t ask to be their savior. But if she has to suffer through this world, she’s making everyone around her suffer less—through skincare, style, and some serious attitude. "If I hear one more ‘We don’t season our food here,’ I’m launching a war." "If you have time to gossip, you have time to do squats." "You want to impress a woman? Start with not smelling like the battlefield." Survival isn’t just about fighting monsters; it’s about looking good while doing it. So what if the System keeps throwing impossible quests her way? "What do you mean ‘you can’t skip quests’?! Since when?! Where is the skip button?! I demand a skip button!" But somewhere between dodging ridiculous quests and fixing these people’s tragic grooming habits, Isabella found herself in situations. Uncomfortable, heart-racing situations. Like being trapped against a tree by the red python, his red eyes half-lidded as he murmured, "You talk too much, little star. Should I silence you?" Like waking up with the lion lord’s fur-lined cloak draped over her shoulders, his deep voice gruff, "You shiver in your sleep. I’ll fix that." Like the phoenix watching her every move, his burning gaze searing into her skin as he mused, "You cause chaos wherever you go, but I find that I don’t mind." Oh, hell. No. She was not about to fall for four beastmen. She was too pretty for this much stress. "If you insult me again, I’ll make sure your soul needs a beauty upgrade." "I refuse to be disrespected by anyone who dresses like an unwashed tree branch." And yet, when a rival tribe came to challenge her, when danger lurked too close, those same beastmen stood beside her—smirking, taunting, fighting for her. "A beastman growled at me today. I growled back. He ran. I am the alpha now." Isabella isn’t just surviving. She’s thriving. And this world better keep up.

There was once an innocent little boy who was about to graduate high school. But suddenly, a truck ran him over before he could step foot in adult life. From his cruel twist of fate, he learns that after a person dies, they simply go to a result screen—a simple score system based on how publicly known they are. Being the nobody, he only had enough points to use the wheel spin—three shots that would determine his upcoming life. The wheel first landed on females, crushing his hope of keeping his gender. But he wasn't just going to give up so easily as the male section remained. The next spin didn't land on what he hoped for. With one last shot, he slammed the button and prayed. A miracle, almost as if god answered his prayer, appeared right before his eyes as it landed on a male. "Thank you, god! I knew you'd never give up on me like that——Wait, what do you mean that's a bug?" Before he could say anything, he was reborn into a fantasy world where magic and cultivation coexist. Want to find out what he got for his upcoming adventure? Well, let's just say he experiences the three stages of grief with his awful luck. --- Disclaimer: Some of the love interests are related to the main character, and the main character's love interests are only towards women.

Male MC| No-Harem| No Yuri| No Yaoi| No NTR A/N: Actually I wasn’t planning to give a full synopsis, but here it is... though I can't promise it'll be easy to explain without giving too much away. Some things are best discovered as you go, don’t you think? ____________________ ____________________ "You're a monster! How could you do this to her? Isn’t she your—" "Yes. She’s my wife. So, I’ll protect her however I want." Kael Ardent is the weakest adventurer in Velhart Town—timid, unremarkable, and scorned by all. At least, that’s what everyone believes. Beneath that fragile facade lies the most feared killer in the underworld, a man who strikes without hesitation, leaving no trace behind. A man who kills not for pleasure, nor coin, but for a purpose buried deep within his dark past. Seraphina Ardent, the kingdom’s strongest knight, is everything Kael pretends not to be—proud, noble, and bound to the unshakable laws of justice. As the captain of the Royal Knight Order, she has dedicated her life to eradicating criminals, never once straying from her path. But despite her strength, she is shackled to a cold, loveless marriage—one arranged by noble duty, binding her to a man she neither respects nor understands. By day, she scorns him. By night, she hunts the elusive assassin who stains the streets with blood. Unaware that the killer she so desperately seeks shares her bed. Kael enjoys pushing her buttons, taunting her with lazy smiles and harmless jests, never expecting the lines between amusement and something far more dangerous to blur. But when he realizes that unseen forces are moving against his wife—his duty shifts. Protecting Seraphina means continuing his life as a killer, eliminating threats before they reach her. Yet the inevitable looms ever closer. When Seraphina finally uncovers the truth—when she realizes that the man she swore to arrest is the same man she has unknowingly come to care for—what will she choose? Her unyielding duty… or the husband she was never meant to love? In a world where deception and justice collide, Kael and Seraphina must navigate a perilous path—facing enemies in the shadows and within their own hearts. But when swords are drawn and the final truth is laid bare, will love be enough to bridge the divide between an assassin’s sins and a knight’s unshakable oath? But one question remains: Can he save her? --- A/N: I'd be happy to get feedback as this is my first book. This will show that I actually have readers.

Benjamin was a simple bookstore clerk, a young dreamer lost in the pages of fantasy—until one night, fantasy became real. A quantum shift, a ripple in the unknown, and suddenly he found himself in Khial, a world unlike any he had ever imagined. A world where the very fabric of reality is shaped by Laws, not rules, but patterns of existence woven by those who can perceive them. Here, the Sages are more than scholars—they are forces of nature, bending the world to their will. And beyond the surface, in the shadows of history, a war wages unseen, where those who understand the Laws fight for power, survival, and something far older than the world itself. Benjamin, however, is different. He has no connection to the world. His soul does not resonate with its Laws, making him an anomaly—a ghost in a reality that should reject him. But he has something else. He can absorb knowledge, not just learn but internalize entire histories, combat styles, strategies, languages. It should have made him powerful. Instead, it made him a target. His journey to find his place in Khial led him to the Academy of Sages, where he trained to survive. But the more he learned, the more he saw that power was never as simple as strength. He forged bonds, crossed paths with warriors and schemers, and found himself entangled in a conflict far greater than he understood. A single mistake sent him tumbling into the depths of the Black Flame, the shadow empire controlling the world from beneath its surface. Enslaved, broken, forgotten, he is forced to claw his way back from the bottom. He will rise—not as a hero, but as something else. His path will take him beyond this world, across vast empires and ancient ruins, toward a final reckoning with Malachros, the entity that should have never existed—the first Itharim to break free from the Maker’s will. But before that, Benjamin must do the impossible: Escape. Survive. Become more than what this world allows.

"You better stop the fucking prank, woman, and just pick up your phone and call your alpha! Otherwise, I will press the damn button and blow you up," A man with a very ugly-looking scar on his face said menacingly, holding a time bomb remote control in his hand and shaking it back and forth before a woman. In the last moment of her death, Rose looked into her heart and cried bitterly. "If I had a second chance, Rolan, I would never have agreed to marry you. I would never have had hopes in you." _____ On the day of her sister's wedding, Rose found herself thrust into an unexpected role as the bride when her sister failed to show up. Marrying a man who had loved her sister for three years, Rose held onto the fragile hope that he might one day care for her. But her dreams of love quickly crumbled—he ignored her, treated her coldly, and never gave her the attention she longed for. Even at her lowest, when Rose’s life hung by a thread, he was nowhere to be found, choosing instead to enjoy his time with her sister. Rose’s heart shattered as she took her final breath, consumed by betrayal and despair. When she opened her eyes again, she was back in her younger self—not before the wedding, but on the very same day she was meant to die. This time, Rose vowed to rewrite her story. She would stop loving him, leave him behind, and refuse to let herself be caught in their web of betrayal again. But the peaceful life Rose planned never came to be. Against all odds, she discovered she was pregnant—carrying his child. Now bound together by this unbreakable link, Rose must face the man she once loved, all while trying to guard her heart. Why is he chasing her now? Why wasn’t he with her sister when she ran away and left him? Why does he seem desperate to win her back when all she wants is to stay far away? discord server,: https://discord.gg/t66GGxhc

Caught in a seemingly endless recursion, Benjamin must conquer a game world designed to shift, rebuild, and respond to player actions through a sentient, shadowy system known only as The Architect. With each death, the system logs his progress, but not for his benefit—it learns from him as much as he learns from it. The goal? Ascend. What Ascension truly means is a mystery, buried behind cryptic NPCs, hidden lore nodes, and countless realms—each governed by their own twisted laws of cultivation, mana manipulation, AI psychology, and ancient world scripts. But there’s a deeper truth lurking beneath the surface—Ascendant is not just a game. It’s an experiment. A prison. And maybe, just maybe, a key to something far larger than himself. ~~~ Ascendant: The Infinite Loop is a long-form, slow-burn LitRPG epic that rewards curiosity, problem-solving, and character growth. With deeply structured cultivation, system progression, psychological elements, and non-linear world exploration, this series explores what it truly means to break limits—both in the game, and in yourself.

Zayne Falken is an indie game developer on the verge of collapse. His projects barely make money, and he's on the brink of eviction. One night, overwhelmed by despair, he wanders to a highland area to clear his mind. There, he stumbles upon something that shouldn't exist—a massive portal radiating an eerie, pulsating energy. Driven by curiosity and a faint hope for something better, Zayne steps through the portal. In an instant, he is pulled into an incomprehensible dimension. When he regains consciousness, he finds himself in a world made entirely of cubes. The sky is pixelated, the trees are symmetrical, and the ground feels like a simulated reality. At first, he believes it's a dream or some sort of reality glitch. But the pain and injuries he experiences are all too real. This world functions like a game, yet there is no exit button. With no other choice, Zayne must survive, understand the rules of this strange realm, and find a way back home. As he explores, he discovers ancient structures, encounters mysterious creatures, and realizes he's not the first person to be trapped in this world. A hidden history lurks beneath the surface—one that even the inhabitants don’t fully understand. The more he uncovers, the clearer it becomes that his arrival here is no accident. A greater force is at play, manipulating events from the shadows. Now, Zayne must not only fight for survival but also unravel the secrets of this world and confront the entity that controls it all. Can he find a way back? Or will he become a permanent part of this pixelated reality?

What if one button could solve EVERY problem? Xiao Yun’s system has no fancy skills, no flashy interfaces—it only does one thing: FORCE EPIPHANIES. Weak Body? Epiphany → Primordial Chaos Physique! Unlearnable Technique? Epiphany → Mastery Perfection! Gods Blocking Your Path? Epiphany × 100 → Divine Annihilation Mode! But when the system’s hidden cost emerges—each epiphany erases a fragment of his humanity—Xiao Yun must choose: become an omniscient god… or remain a flawed man who defies heaven itself.

Chris Solis Noctis was expecting a normal life. Graduate college, get a job, maybe become mildly successful. What he wasn’t expecting? Waking up as a helpless baby in a completely different world, stuck in a luxurious crib with zero motor skills and a full-blown existential crisis. Reincarnation was supposed to come with perks—overpowered abilities, a handy system menu, something! Instead, he gets: - No magic menu. (Rude.) - No god-given cheat skills. (Where’s the refund button?) - No idea why his ridiculously powerful family treats him like a walking prophecy. His father could declare war with a raised eyebrow, his mother casually floats midair like it’s normal, and everyone keeps acting like his existence is a big deal. Oh, and let’s not forget the two moons that seem a little too interested in his life choices. Armed with sarcasm, mild paranoia, and the stubborn refusal to accept baby jail as his new reality, Chris is determined to figure out why he’s here, how to survive, and whether fate really has it out for him. Because if the universe won’t give him plot armor… he’ll just have to make his own.

A genius programmer, renowned for his ability to "debug" the most complex systems, dies in a freak accident when God accidentally presses the "delete" button on his soul. As an apology, God reincarnates him into a fantasy world and grants him an overpowered skillset based on his programming expertise, allowing him to manipulate magic, stats, and even reality itself like a developer modifying a game.

Arsol (Username: Hakkun) is your average eighteen-year-old tech nerd; he reads cliche light novels, plays video games (way too many), studies for exams, and he programs! Does he have friends? A social life, maybe? Nah, he’s an anti-social whose inner monologues revolve around how humans suck. He’s the type who blames the world for his problems: edgy, angsty, emo— thinks he’s smarter than everyone and has answers for the world’s crisis. Gotta give it to him, though, he a young talent at whatever he does. His skills for programming, gaming (FPS) as well as studying makes up for the fact that he’s an arse. So much so, that he stops going to school altogether and locks himself in his room, he’d rather be with his computer. Because Arsol is on a mission! He’s been collaborating with online strangers who are all equally gamers and computer nerds, who understand him, and who all have this idea to make this steampunk/dieselpunk game called ‘Hero of Emberstein.’ Now, Arsol won’t lie, he’s obsessed. Being one of the co-creators, he finds himself adding features and details he’d want in an MMORPG. The only thing he dislikes is the customizable character features; he never understands such a personalized activity. He prefers Gacha. After 3 years, the game is finally available for beta testing, his 7 online co-creators are all ready to click the play button. But little does Arsol know, he would for real be in the game, like in person, like ISEKAI-ed, like he could die, for real for real. What's worse is, everyone who clicked the play button for the beta test, has also been Isekaied. So like, maybe over a thousand or more? Arsol thinks it’s his fault innocent players are getting transmigrated into HIS game, because he remembers that he removed the 'EXIT' button as a harmless malfunctioning prank-- turned deadly?! Oops. Journey along with Arsol as he hides his identity as the creator, the culprit, and the administrator. And that time he finds out his 6 online friends are all here as well, but where?! Who?! UGH, THIS IS WHY HE HATES CUSTOMIZABLE CHARACTERS! ( I DO, IN FACT, OWN THE COVER )

THE TRAGIC, GLORIOUS, AND ABSURD DEATH OF COLL APSI: A NATIONAL DISASTER OR A BLESSING IN DISGUISE? By: A Reporter Who Was Forced to Write This Ladies and gentlemen, citizens of the internet, and all the unfortunate souls who have nothing better to do than read this article—today, we gather to mourn (or mock) the untimely demise of Coll Apsi, the so-called "number one pro-gamer" of Yggdrasil Online. Yes, you heard that right. The man who dedicated his life to clicking buttons faster than the rest of us has finally clicked his last. How did it happen, you ask? Was it a tragic accident? A conspiracy? Perhaps the government finally decided to tax gamers for their virtual wealth? No, dear readers. The truth is far more poetic. Coll Apsi, a man of legendary skill but questionable life choices, was found dead in his apartment. His cause of death? A brain shock caused by excessive stimulation. A poetic way of saying that his brain literally couldn’t handle his own awesomeness. Some might say it was a divine punishment for spending too much money on in-game cosmetics, while others argue it was simply evolution removing the weak from the gene pool. Now, let’s talk about the crime scene. The authorities found our dear Coll in a rather unique position—doing a full kayang (bridge pose) while his manhood stood at full attention. Some experts suggest this was a final salute to his gacha waifus, while others believe it was a desperate attempt to ascend into another dimension. Either way, it worked. He got isekai’d. Naturally, the news spread faster than government scandals, and soon, the live chat was flooded with reactions that ranged from genuine sadness to absolute degeneracy. Some fans cried out, “Gone too soon!”, while others immediately began making memes about “Coll Apsi’s Final Form.” There was even a small cult forming, claiming that he had achieved true enlightenment and would return as the God of RNG. But let’s not forget the family’s response. In a heartwarming display of motherly affection, Coll’s mother, Madam Apsi, was interviewed and gave a truly tear-jerking statement: "That useless brat! Where’s all his money?! I raised a son, not a broke corpse!" Indeed, it turns out that despite being a top-tier professional gamer, Coll Apsi somehow managed to spend every single penny he earned on loot boxes, NFTs, and premium battle passes. A true financial mastermind. The government’s tax department, upon realizing there was nothing left to seize, immediately lost interest in the case. And if you thought that was the end of it—oh no. Even game developers and corporations had something to say. The official Yggdrasil Online Twitter account posted a heartfelt message: "Rest in peace, Coll Apsi. May your soul continue to grind in another world." Meanwhile, other game developers jumped on the opportunity, releasing limited-time Coll Apsi tribute skins priced at a very respectful 99.99 dollars. Nothing honors the dead like capitalism, after all. But perhaps the most unexpected response came from a national agency, which, in a rare moment of self-awareness, tweeted: "We have reviewed the case and can confirm that Coll Apsi’s death was indeed NOT a government operation. If we were responsible, we assure you it would have looked like a normal heart attack." Ah, government transparency at its finest. Of course, conspiracy theories began to spread. Some claimed that Coll had unlocked the secrets of the universe, while others believed he was assassinated by a rival esports team. There was even one theory suggesting that he had successfully hacked the afterlife, leading to an emergency server maintenance in heaven.
