Enigmatic Return

I gave them my everything. My time… my strength… my heart. I trained while they slept. I smiled when they laughed. I stayed… even when it hurt. And what did I get? Nothing. They looked at me like I was pathetic. Like, I didn’t belong. Like I was… less. But I... the naive person I am, continued trusting them. They told me to act like trash, fine—I became trash. They told me to act like a scumbag, fine—I played the role. However... One mistake, one single moment... That’s all it took. And they threw me away. But now… Someone else woke up in my body. A stranger, a man who doesn’t know the pain I suffered, but wears my face. Let’s see what he does with it. Because me? I’m done with this life, so to the soul who took over my body... This is your mess now… 'Gray'. –––––––––––– Discord: https://discord.gg/dp865x8BfZ - Tags: Villain MC | Gore | No-Yuri | No-Netorare | Kinky & Obsessed Heroines | Misunderstandings | Smart MC | Strength-based Social Hierarchy | Strong Love Interests | Sword & Magic | Strong Wealthy Characters | Special Abilities | Revenge |

Rayyan was no ordinary boy—he possessed a power unlike any other. Mysterious and quiet, he lived a life shrouded in secrets. One day, in a twist of fate, he kidnapped a girl named Daphne Catherine, unaware of the truth behind her identity. She wasn’t just any girl—she was Dee, the infamous master of the underground racing world. Dee had abandoned her past, hiding from the law as the police closed in on her illegal racing bureau. Determined to clear her name, she returned to the city to resolve the chaos she'd left behind. After the case was settled, she enrolled in university, eager to start over. There, she met Duke—a charming, attentive guy who helped her during a bout of fever. Slowly, she began to fall for him. They spent time together, often meeting at the cozy café where he worked part-time. But just when she thought she could trust again, Duke betrayed her. He took her to a place, unaware that she secretly owned it. The lies shattered her. Devastated, Dee returned to the racetrack, her old escape. But the race turned tragic—an accident left her in a coma for a month. When she finally opened her eyes, Rayyan was there. He confessed his feelings, the emotions he’d kept buried now pouring out. They argued often—Rayyan, normally quiet and distant, only ever opened up to her. Despite the tension, something sparked between them. Love, hesitant and tender, began to grow. Together, they began crossing off items from Dee’s bucket list, sharing laughs and stolen moments. But happiness was never meant to last. Tragedy struck again. In the chaos, Rayyan saved her, risking everything. He introduced her to his sister, letting her deeper into his guarded world, and then left the country for a series of high-stakes business deals. But when he returned, everything had changed. Dee was distant, cold. Without warning, she walked away, claiming she no longer wanted him in her life. The rejection broke Rayyan. Her absence consumed him, turning his quiet obsession into a dark spiral of despair. He was no longer the same. Now, with their love shattered and hearts in pieces—what happens next?

"When she read, Lisa had always hated villains. In her defense, she never expected to become one." Lisa was an avid reader, and among all the books she loved, she had a new obsession: Beauty and Power, a book in which the main villain shared her name. The book began with two characters, Lisa and Eleanor, who, during a vacation trip, ended up getting lost in a cave and found themselves in the world of beasts. They were best friends and did everything together, so it was no surprise when both transmigrated to the same world. In the world of beasts, they were the most beautiful and caught the attention of the most powerful males. Over time, however, Lisa's envy and ambition grew stronger and stronger. The friends soon became rivals and then enemies. Lisa, the villain, led the fox clan against the tiger clan in the book’s final battle, where she was ultimately defeated by the protagonist, Eleanor. As a consequence of her sins, she was blamed for the war and sold into slavery. To ensure she could never manipulate anyone again, her tongue was cut out. That was the price she paid for her greed. "Now that was a great ending!" Lisa exclaimed, delighted by the story. However, she was far less thrilled when she woke up in the villain’s body. Sold as a slave and unable to speak, Lisa could only rely on her intelligence to survive in that body. But after all, what could she do with the body of a notorious criminal?

[The RETURNER FANTASY system has been granted to you in response to your dying wish] [Initiating regression in 3... 2... 1...] That was the voice Jeff heard in the final moments of his life—just before death claimed him. Or at least, that's how he remembers it, now that he's woken up twelve years in the past. Back to the moment when he still had a chance to change everything he thought had gone wrong. Forget the incurable disease. Forget the mystery of how he regressed. Forget even the holographic screen flashing in the corner of his vision. What matters now is the quest he's on—and the girl he's running toward. She had stayed by his side even when he had nothing. She forgave him for the foolishness that had torn them apart. She was there in his final moments, when regret overwhelmed him for never telling her how he truly felt. This time, he wouldn't make the same mistake. This time, he'd protect her—no matter what. Even if it cost him his life… or someone else's. [Warning: Contains Mature, Sexual, and Violence content.] This book will have a lot of mature and sexual content.

In a world where every person is born with a six-sided die that can reveal their fate, society lives by the roll. One means failure. Six means success. People ask their dice before jobs, relationships, even battles. Fate decides everything. But some are born with rarer dice — ones that don’t have all six numbers. Some dice have only two or three numbered sides. The rest? Blank. These people are known only to a secret organization called The Abnormals — who know the truth: > The rarer the die, the deeper it touches fate itself. And some blanks aren’t empty. They hold power. --- Kairo Enys has never rolled his die — not once. Born with a mysterious die that shows only two numbers — 1 and 2 — and four blank sides, he rejects the idea that fate should decide his life. He believes in choice, not chance. That changes the night he’s betrayed and left to die. With his phone gone and blood pouring from his chest, he rolls the die for the first time — asking if he’ll live to see tomorrow. It lands on a blank. He wakes up the next day, alive, unwounded… and holding a die that’s changed: red and gold, glowing with unknown power. That blank roll etched a skill into his soul: > Infinite Return — if he dies, he rewinds to the morning. But fate doesn’t like being rewritten. Now hunted by Unknowns — chaotic beings from beyond the fabric of reality — and watched by the Abnormals, Kairo begins to unlock the terrifying truth of his die: Each blank can store a daily skill, tied to his emotions. His signature power activates once a day — or more, if he’s willing to risk his life force. Every roll is a gamble — fate or power, survival or collapse. And worse — time is running out. Two centuries ago, a deal was struck by another like him to delay the end of the world. That deal expires in one year. Kairo didn’t ask for this fate. But now? > He’s the only one who can break it. --- Fate has rules. He breaks them.
