There's a pinned review with many details on what you can expect from the story, but I'm going to answer here the one pressing question I imagine most of you will have: Will the MC allow other men to see his harem members in action? Initially, yes. But (SPOILER WARNING) he and his girls will come to a decision together in chapters 198-199, which is to appeal only to the female viewers because they need to increase the 'fangirl' stat to in turn increase the system's rank.

[Complete] Who could be more unlucky than her? She inexplicably fell down a mountain, lost her memory, was forcibly taken back to a villa by an overbearing and sly CEO for investigation, and on top of that, she had to deal with him constantly tearing at her clothes, wanting to find hidden cameras. The sly CEO said, "Want to leave? Complete your last task first!" "I want Italian ice cream!" a pregnant woman pouted with red lips, patting her swollen belly. "It's the middle of the night, darling, no ice cream, have a banana instead." His gaze was burning. "It's not me who wants it, it's your son who does!" the pregnant woman cooed. Thus, a private jet flew directly to Europe overnight, and when she woke up in the morning, she and her baby were already in Italy.

Orion was a homeless orphan living in the human settlement Central. The boy was, for lack of a better word, stupid—not because he lacked intelligence (no, he was actually pretty normal intellectually speaking), but what else would you call a person who smiled after getting beat to a pulp?! Stupid! STUPID THROUGH AND THROUGH! With his luck too, he was constantly getting beaten—punched by thieves, punched by beggars, punched by beggar thieves! But somehow, as long as he came out alive by the end, he thought it was a win. To him, the thrill of throwing himself into a helpless situation and coming out on top was exhilarating—the adrenaline pumping through his veins, the sweat running down his skin, the body aching from overuse. It was all so miserable, but somehow, when everything passed, he felt a rush of exstasy that surpassed all pain endured. Until the day came when he was met with a truly terrifying enemy. But he was used to it—steadying his resolve, analyzing the environment, and planning how to survive. But there was no surviving then. There was only death, and that was what awaited him. So he died… But he lived. And now, he was faced with two options for the future: help save humanity from doom, or aid its destruction. Note 1: HEAVILY inspired by Shadow Slave, this novel is an attempt at giving G3's masterpiece some of my own ideas. Not tagged as fanfiction because the story doesn’t happen in the same universe as Shadow Slave. Note 2: This storyu will skip a bit of context, but please take things at face value at first, i'll explain everything at the right time, i just don't want to give everybody walls of text of world building every 2 paragraphs.

"And if someday you see me, remember to forget my name, or karma will bow." **** For Awuor’s power, her people had done the unthinkable, in the history of werewolves. Her beta and brother, Dom, murdered their mother, the Sicario luna and blamed it on Awuor. In his grief, her father didn't bother to try and find out the truth, instead, for murdering her mother, he gave his daughter the worst punishment any alpha could ever get. He banished her from home, but Awuor’s wasn’t the usual banishment. Her father neither stripped her of the alpha title, nor did he make her a rogue. Instead, Alpha Sicario forced Awuor to be an exiled alpha, a woman so powerful, but with no one to rule over. Her mate, Jer, a power-hungry bastard, stepped up to rule the Sicario pack, since Awuor, the reigning alpha, was away, and Jer never once sought her out. Just like everyone else, he had betrayed her when he claimed a different woman, without rejecting Awuor. As the gates of Sicario closed on her, as her people watched her in disgust and disappointment, the daughter of Sicario had just one thought. A PROMISE of destruction & vengeance; she would ruin them all. *** [EXCERPT] "Either you're from the Dawson pack, the Bluemoon pack, or the Sicario pack, because you're definitely not from our Greyson pack. You must have done something really stupid for your alphas to banish you, even though you have no scent of the ferals. "So that could mean you're not a feral, but you're certainly not that important to your people. You seem to have an attitude and reek of power, that's why you don't appreciate anyone talking to you like a regular wolf. "But all of that doesn't matter right now, because you are the unwanted little wolf. The girl without a home, the rejected wolf who can't be claimed by anyone else. You're dressed in banana leaves because you have no clue how to make proper clothing on your own. "— or even check the feral cloth reservoir on the west of this forest. The fact that you have stayed so close to the other three packs is because you don't want to be away from home and are somehow hoping that they'd want you back. "Allow me to spell it out for you and make it easier for your probably useless brain to understand, little wolf, no one wants you. I'm only taking you to my alpha because your presence here is a nuisance to us, and for some reason, the alpha is interested in you. "And before you get any ideas about mates and whatnot, our alpha is already mated. So will you get up on your own, or do we have to take you stripped? Because I for one have no problem doing that. We could just treat you like the rogue that you're not," Adolf said to Awuor who still had her angry smirk on.

Ren Vireo just wanted to wander. No great destiny. No chosen one prophecy. Just a backpack, a weird journal, and a dream to see what’s out there. But when a ripple in space-time flings him into Cindale, a world powered by dreams and ruled by living mana, Ren quickly learns that travel isn’t so simple anymore. Every step he takes alters the fabric of the worlds he walks. Every stranger he helps awakens new laws of magic. And somewhere out there… the multiverse is watching him. Now, Ren’s journey spans infinite universes, each with its own mana, myths, and madness. He makes friends with talking fireballs, duels with banana-wielding knights, paints reality into being, and sometimes saves a world by accident. He’s not a hero. He’s not even sure what he’s doing. But the longer he travels, the more the worlds begin to change… Because when Ren walks, the universe evolves. And he’s just getting started.

Nine trillion Stellars in debt. The weight was a suffocating mountain crushing Fat Cat III—the body Liu Yao now inhabited after rebirth. At United Stellar University, he was a walking joke: the campus "​​Debt Tycoon​​," mocked for his ​​Gene Optimization Grade D-​​, humiliated during physical assessments, and relentlessly targeted by bullies like ​​Gu Yan​​ and ​​Lin Wanwen​​. Just as his dignity shattered and despair consumed him… a surge of static ripped through his skull. ​​[Bzzt… Host de-tec-ted… DIGNITY CRUMBLE RATE: 99%… EMERGENCY RESET… IN-IT-I-ATE…]​​ The ​​Debtor's Glory System​​ jolted online. Now, with the passive skill ​​"When Misfortune Peaks, Fortune Arrives"​​ primed to unleash ​​hundredfold retaliation​​ on his tormentors, can this debt-drowned feline defy his genetic chains and fate’s cruel mockery? Can he harness the system’s power to claw his way from the bottom and forge an underdog’s path to glory in a galaxy rigged against him?

In the neon-drenched dystopia of Fengdu City, exiled Daoist hacker ​​Shen Lian​​ and rogue cyborg ​​Lin Jie​​—a street punk with a weaponized rusted ruler and a sabotaged heart module—forge a reluctant alliance against ​​V-7​​, a biomechanical assassin cloned from Lin’s DNA by the omnipotent ​​Longyuan Corporation​​, uncovering a conspiracy to erase human memories and replace elites with emotionless killers, culminating in a data-fortress siege where Lin sacrifices himself to overload V-7’s neural core while Shen unleashes the truth, leaving Lin’s consciousness digitized and the city’s fate hanging between corporate tyranny and fragmented rebellion

Heaven and earth are benevolent towards all things… "Benevolent? Who wrote this garbage? The so-called Heavenly Dao is just a cosmic butcher hiding behind empty words! Balance? Order? My foot! Endless wars, reincarnation cycles, and countless tragedies — all in the name of ‘destiny’." On Earth, he was an ordinary Asian guy — average grades, average job, no girlfriend, and a healthy obsession with cultivation novels. One day, a mysterious accident ends his boring life. But instead of reincarnating into some young master’s body or getting a cheat cultivation technique, he wakes up to a shocking revelation: He has become the new Heavenly Dao! Apparently, all his predecessors — countless so-called "Dao spirits" — failed miserably, plunging the realms into endless chaos. The mysterious System that governs cosmic order has finally chosen an "outsider" to fix things. But there's a catch: ➤ The System won’t hold his hand. ➤ No quest logs screaming “Go save the cat!” ➤ No divine guide whispering in his ear. He must use his own human intelligence, shameless cunning, and a bit of Earthly common sense — plus his OP heavenly powers — to straighten yin and yang, reconstruct reincarnation, and reforge a truly fair world of cultivation. Yet, nobody knows his true identity. To the cultivators, "Heavenly Dao" is an untouchable, cold-blooded, merciless force that enjoys watching them fight and die for karma points. They would never suspect that their current "Dao" is a clueless Earthling trying to act cool while learning on the fly! "Oh? The righteous sect is trafficking a nine-tailed fox beauty? Let me casually twist fate so they slip on banana peels and reveal themselves to the entire continent... Wait! Why are all these fox women proposing to me?!" As he fumbles through conspiracies, unravels ancient mysteries, faces off against demonic overlords, and accidentally builds a massive harem (he swears it was not on purpose!), he remains determined to rebuild a world where no one is forced into endless slaughter in the name of “balance.” "Watch closely! I — the Earth’s most normal guy — will rewrite heaven itself, and make even the heavens tremble from laughter... and maybe a bit of fear!" --- Genres: Eastern Fantasy, Cultivation, System, Comedy, Drama, Slice of Life, Action, Adventure, Harem, Smart MC, OP MC, Satire Tags: Reincarnated as a system/Dao, Secret Identity, Misunderstandings, Witty MC, World Building, Strong to Stronger, Mythical Beasts, Beautiful Disciples, Realm Wars, Karma, Fate Manipulation

Scared by Blood – In a world where beast tamers hold great power, Samuel, a young tamer with an extraordinary and forbidden ability, embarks on a journey that will shape the fate of the continent. Unlike ordinary tamers who control living monsters, Samuel can tame the souls of dead beasts, gaining their powers and even commanding their bodies. The Beginning: Samuel lived a peaceful life in a small village until his mother revealed the truth about his father and his hidden power on her deathbed. Determined to grow stronger, he left home, trained in secret, and eventually registered as a beast tamer in the capital Zoria. There, he met his closest friends—Elaine, Marianne, Sylvia, and his childhood best friend, Lancelot. The Attack on Zoria & Awakening of Power: While on a job in the capital, Ezekiel (Vox Sanguinis), an infamous beast tamer, led an invasion using monstrous creatures known as the Malugna. In the chaos, Lancelot was killed before Samuel's eyes, breaking something inside him. Fueled by rage, Samuel swore revenge and awakened his Soul Tamer abilities. He summoned Bahamut, the Legendary Dragon, forcing Ezekiel and his forces to retreat. Rising Fame & New Challenges: As Samuel continued his journey, his power grew: He fought and tamed a Leviathan, gaining the ability to breathe underwater. He traveled with his party and Jason, a warrior from the neighboring nation of Sylphora. His abilities spread across the continent, catching the attention of kings, nobles, and enemies alike. He formed complex relationships, including a growing rivalry and romance with Lyra, a noblewoman who served the king. A World in Conflict: Samuel’s increasing power brought both respect and fear. Some saw him as a hero, while others saw him as a threat to the balance of power. The King of Zoria summoned him and his party for high-stakes missions, including investigating a leviathan threat in the city of Lorigna and defending the kingdom from external and internal enemies. But beneath the surface, a greater danger looms—a secret war between powerful factions, hidden forces that manipulate events from the shadows, and the mystery of Samuel’s own past. As he continues his journey, Samuel must face betrayal, loss, and the burden of his abilities. He will be forced to make difficult choices, knowing that every beast he tames, every enemy he defeats, and every soul he claims will shape his destiny. Is Samuel a savior, or will he become a monster feared by all? The world will soon find out.

How does it feel to have such prowess...? Such thought lingered on Kreig's mind; yearning, hoping. He doesn't have a place to call home, nor does he have a person he could come back to. He was a loner living on the streets. The furthest memory he could recall was when he was beaten up to a pulp, and there he awoke. Not such prowess, but his consciousness. Living on the street caused his hunger to survive to surpass his peers, though he, himself, had not done anything to turn his situation around. Then one day, when the usual trade happened before his eyes, an unusual spark lit up in his eyes, something dangerously close to hope. Even if this kills me... Tomorrow, I, Kreig Haven, will set forth the world of Domains! One to two chapters per day, typically 4:05 PM UTC

Jericho was just another die-hard gamer until a sudden death dropped him straight into the world of his favorite fantasy RPG. There’s only one problem: he didn’t reincarnate as the legendary hero, the hidden boss, or even a halfway-decent ally. No, Jericho is an extra. A third-rate noble who, in the game’s story, used his status to bully the weak, harass women, and serve as an early punching bag for the real protagonist. His scripted fate? A humiliating downfall: after assaulting the hero’s childhood friend, Jericho was beaten to a pulp, suspended from the academy, and disowned by his family. Left with nothing but his name, his destiny was to vanish quietly as the story marched on. Now reincarnated into this disgraced villain’s body, after the fall, Jericho wakes up at rock bottom. No money, no allies, no backup plan. And worst of all? Everyone already hates him. But Jericho isn’t interested in redemption. He knows how this world works: no matter how strong a villain gets, the protagonist’s hidden power and unbeatable plot armor will always win in the end. So, why bother fighting fate? Armed with deep knowledge of future events, Jericho takes a different path: profit. From rare relics and world-changing tools to market-shifting disasters, he crafts and exploits every twist of the story for one thing: wealth. His final goal is a quiet, luxurious life far away from the main plotline. But as Jericho’s schemes succeed, his "coincidental" genius draws eyes he never wanted, from dangerous nobles to ambitious academy students, and eventually the hero himself along with his circle of heroines, each with their own suspicions and agendas. Jericho planned to stay out of the story, but the story isn’t done with him.

Lucas was a loyal and loving boyfriend. But as his girlfriend grew distant—too busy, too full of lies—he began to suspect she was cheating on him. One day, he decided to follow her, only to see her with another man. At first, he thought it was just her gay best friend or maybe a brother… until she kissed him. Heartbroken and betrayed, Lucas rushed toward them, ready to confront her—only for fate to trip him up, literally. He stepped on a banana peel, slipped, hit his head, and died. Just like that. Cheated on, betrayed, and taken out by fruit. But when he woke up… He was no longer in his world. He had been transported into the fantasy novel his friend recommended a month ago—"Secret Malice." And not just that. He now lives inside the body of Crown Prince Zachary Levi Auguste, a man engaged to Natasha Solace Thalven, the infamous villainess of the story.

You ever wake up one morning and think, “Hey, today I’ll just get kidnapped by a dungeon, unlock fire powers, save a girl from goblins, and somehow end up stronger than a wrecking ball with zero muscle mass to show for it”? Yeah. Me neither. Until it happened. I was your average, totally not crazy teenage boy. Kyle Walker. My biggest concern used to be whether my mom would notice I vacuumed only the parts of the rug you could see. Then I woke up with a glowing status screen hovering in front of my face, full-on RPG mechanics in real life, and a “Daily Fortune Wheel” that once rewarded me with a banana-shaped rock. (Yes, really. I still have it. It might be magical. Or just potassium-themed.) Things escalated. Fast. There were goblins. Real ones. Screeching, stabby, and not the kind you want in your bedtime stories. I rescued a girl Azalea Quinn who now thinks I’m some kind of cheat code wielding fire mage. Which, fair. I did throw a fireball. From my hand. While screaming. But the real kicker? I’m not alone. My best friend Rhea is a maybe-descendant of the war goddess Istha. She swings around a spiked club like it’s a purse and has major “goblin-hunter before breakfast” energy. (Okay, the breakfast part is a joke. Probably.) Then there’s Michael, my classmate who can now bench-press lockers and shatter school furniture like it’s made of wet paper. And LETI? That’s the super-secret government agency with mind-wipe squads, lunar-module entrances, and a gym that makes superhero boot camps look underfunded. The only normal human left in my life? Jimmy. My childhood friend. He thinks all of this is just a big anime fever dream. Bless him. So now I’m juggling school, superpowers, suspicious cafeteria meatloaf, and the cosmic prank that gave me strength stats without the muscles to match. So, no,I’m not crazy. Probably.

“I wrote this world. I made these rules. And now... I’m just a nameless grunt in them.” Ethan Carter was just another failed webnovel author, spending sleepless nights writing for a handful of readers. Until one day, he woke up... inside his own story. The problem? He didn’t become the hero. Or the villain. Not even a cool side character. He became a grunt. A disposable NPC. The kind that shows up just to take a punch and drop like a sack of potatoes. And to make things worse, he reincarnated right at the moment he’s about to be beaten to a pulp by one of the most ridiculously overpowered characters in the entire world he created — the hero’s mentor, the Lord of Thunder. But… all is not lost. Because in the middle of his panic, Ethan discovers something not even he knew was hidden in his own script: A power. A bug. A loophole. He can stop time. The problem? He has no clue how this damn thing works. Now, he’ll have to survive, master his powers, and navigate a world filled with assassins, criminal syndicates, magical factions, and characters that… well, he wrote. His fate was never in the story. So screw the story.

In a world where power comes at the cost of your soul—and your years—Opening your Heaven’s Gate is a rite of passage reserved for the elite. Swallow a sentient slug, bond your mind and body to its eldritch power, and become a commander in the war against the subterranean Unders. If you survive the merge, that is. Lucas Virell, born into wealth and legacy, has trained his whole life for this moment. The son of a prestigious family, the nation’s eyes are on him when he completes the ritual and merges with Lunaris, one of the strongest slugs to ever live. But the union leaves him broken, unstable, and plagued by the overwhelming presence in his mind. Expectations crush him. His body weakens. His grip on control slips. Then there's Lucy Ahlstrom—a nobody from the slums. With no sponsor, no bloodline, and no hope of surviving past thirty, Lucy stumbles into a stolen slug and does the unthinkable: she opens her first Gate. Her transformation is a miracle—and a threat. Bonded to the refined and ruthless Selanar, Lucy’s silver-flamed ascension shocks the Capitol and disrupts centuries of social order. Now, both are enrolled in the Academy of Ascendants, where slugbearers are trained to lead battalions against the Unders. But the academy is a battleground of its own: vicious students, political sabotage, and twisted hierarchies wait around every marble corridor. Lucas is ridiculed for his faltering control. Lucy is hated for rising above her caste. When the two are forced together, their fates entwine. Forced into fragile alliance, Lucy and Lucas must navigate inner demons, external war, and a world that wants to use—or break—them. What begins as resentment may become survival. And survival may uncover something even more dangerous: the secret behind the slugs, the true cost of the Gates, and the lie that holds their society together.

Odin, the Allfather of the Norse gods, is no noble hero. In his endless pursuit of wisdom and power, he crosses lines even gods should fear. Disguised as a humble worker, Odin infiltrates the realm of giants to steal the legendary Mead of Poetry—an elixir said to grant knowledge, prophecy, and the soul of creation itself.
