Merlin Starving

Adopted as a starving child, Wolf was taken in by the queen of Aestonia. She raised him to be a man of value and through his own efforts, Wolf even managed to overshadow her real son William. But with the king’s death, the two brothers must enter a competition to prove their worth against numerous other warriors. Only once they’d defeated them would the two face each other, and the result of their battle would decide the future king. But it would be tame if that alone was the reward, wouldn’t it? Thus, the victor must choose a queen from the crowd witnessing their battle, and for Wolf, the answer couldn’t have been easier. The queen, of course! He’ll have her–even if he has to defeat her true son in front of everyone! However, this is just the start of his many conquests for the whole is filled with opportunities and many such women to make into his queens!

I thought I had seen bad endings before—but nothing prepared me for the garbage conclusion of The Hero’s Path. Years of investment, countless struggles, and for what? The protagonist failed. The villain won. Everyone else? Dead. Furious, I sent a message to the author, only to get a chilling response: [Do you think you could do better?] Before I could even blink, my phone exploded in a blinding light, and the next thing I knew—I was waking up in a completely different body. Now, I’m Merlin Everhart, a fourteen-year-old with a 12-star talent, the kind of gift only the strongest should have. But here’s the problem: I have no idea who I am supposed to be. With nothing but a system and a first-day-of-school alarm ringing in my ears, I’m thrown into the world of The Hero’s Path. Am I just another side character in a world that already ended once? …Either way, I refuse to let this story beat me too.

Now, with his shadow alive and insatiable, Damon faces a terrible choice: feed it to grow stronger or starve it and die with it. In a world ruled by ruthless nobles, deadly monsters, and power-hungry demons, Damon must decide if his newfound power is a curse or the only way to survive. With the Living Shadow System, his fate is clear: devour or be devoured. discord. https://discord.com/invite/23jwFnt9

This story is kind of based on the Arthurian legend. ******* He was called many things. Bastard, the False King, The Traitor, Treacherous Knight. Sir Mordred was a villain, one who according to the prophecy of the grand wizard Merlin, would destroy the kingdom of King Arthur Pendragon. And he did but at the cost of his life. As he lay dying on the bloody ground of Camlann after the mighty clash between him and Arthur, a bloody tear fell down his face. All he wanted was to be acknowledged by his father but all the things he did eventually led to disaster. Now with death’s cold hands grasping him, he hoped for a short peace before the fiery rings of hell. But that was not the end of his journey. ******* “Hold up.” “What is that infernal noise?” “Oh my goodness! It's driving me crazy! And it's not stopping!” Mordred sprang awake, slamming his fist on the digital alarm clock on the nightstand. 'What in Merlin's Beard is happening!?', he thought when he realized something. Well, a lot of things. First of all. How the heck is he alive? Second. What is a digital alarm? That's when memories that didn't belong to him flooded his head. They felt familiar but everything was wrong. How the heck is Morgan Le Fay his sister? She was his aunt! And how is the wizard Merlin so young! “Oh. I get it now”. He, Sir Mordred has been reborn in the body of a different version of himself, in a modern and futuristic world where he is the youngest son of Arthur Pendragon. But even in this world, He is the hated son of the High King. "Now what?", Mordred realized that the world he is in now is different from his previous one, with the only familiar details being the names of the people he knew. “Oh? Are you still reading?” Mordred smiled, looking at the readers. “Well, how about you join me on this new crazy journey in a crazy new world of heroes, villains, monsters, and even gods?” “Are you ready?” "Let's go!" ********************************************** The story is loosely based on the Arthurian legend. I am only using the popular names but the plot is different. The story is purely fictional with a few things from the actual legend being incorporated along with some stuff from other popular works. The characters may have different personalities from the original ones from the legend. There will also be names that may seem quite familiar as well. The cover image doesn't belong to me.

Hunter Cha Eui-jae, who was dispatched to seal a rift that appeared over the West Sea, was flung out as soon as he closed the rift. When he came to his senses, he was lying in a garbage dump. Starving, he was drawn like a zombie is to blood to a hangover soup restaurant, where he realized that he had fallen into South Korea, eight years in the future. In this era, disaster alerts notify people of rift openings in advance, ASMR videos of slimes gathered from dungeons were trending, and idle hunters livestream unboxings of A-rank longswords. Unlike the past, where people trembled in fear of an impending apocalypse, the future was surprisingly peaceful, leaving Cha Eui-jae feeling empty. Since things had turned out this way, why not start a second chapter of life as a part-timer at the hangover soup restaurant, rather than being a hunter? “That’s strange.” “…” “Have we met somewhere before?” Cha Eui-jae’s plan to quietly spend his remaining days as the only part-time worker at the decades-old hangover soup restaurant goes awry when he encounters a mysterious, gas-masked individual… DISCLAIMER: The story isn't mine

She was pushed to the ground, and now, there was a bloody wound on her head. With only a handful of rice left in the rice bag, she had relied on digging wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger every day. Her children were so often starved that they were all skin and bones. On top of that, a wicked woman threatened her to sell her son! If she refused, the woman would snatch him away forcefully. But An Jiuyue took a deep breath, revealed her sharp claws, beat the woman up, and threw her out of the house. She could show the woman she was not to be messed with! They were out of rice and vegetables now, but she was not afraid. Acquiring food using her spatial abilities was as easy as curling her fingers! Moreover, her spatial abilities were unlimited, and her medical skills did not deteriorate. She could no doubt earn money and raise her children well! As for her ex-husband… The prince, who had returned from the battlefield, smiled maliciously. "My beloved concubine, please calm down. I brought back a mountain of gold from the battlefield as a gift for you and our children."

// Feed… Devour… CLAIM! // Nine clenched his jaw as the system’s whispers slithered into his mind. His gaze locked onto her—burning, aching, starving—as he swallowed hard. // Indulge, Saint. And you shall fulfill… // His hands trembled. His breath turned ragged. "Shit." The Saint’s Codex was never a blessing. It was a curse—a cruel balance between power and damnation. To resist meant weakness. To indulge meant corruption.

One fateful day, the world was thrown into chaos as zombies swarmed every major city. Millions perished daily, and governments crumbled under the relentless onslaught. Just when all hope seemed lost, Arjun Mehta a novelist in Bangalore India, awakened a universe within himself—a power that allowed him to create planets and build entire civilizations. While others starved, he had an endless supply of food. While others ran out of weapons, his factories were just getting started.

[Ding! Sorceress Beauty Merlin from Camelot has added you to a chat group full of beautiful maidens!] [Ding! You've claimed the title of Supreme Demon Lord!] [Ding! Fairy Queen Ophelia tagged you in a post!] [Ding! Medusa sent you some of her spicy videos, shut your blinds before watching!] [Ding! Your dog has been transformed into the Ancient Black Dragon Veligrpyh!] James Kang, once the youngest heir to the multi-trillion-dollar Hart Global Corporation, has everything anyone could dream of: money, luxury, and freedom. But his life is hollow—friends are fake, family distant, and his days are a blur of shallow extravagance. One late, lonely night, James gets a notification: [Congratulations! You have been added to the Ancient Multiverse Chatroom!] Thinking it's some cringy online role-playing game, he decides to entertain himself and plays along, proclaiming himself the "Supreme Demon Lord." The group, filled with titles like: [Princess of the Azure Seas] [Dragon Emperor of Ashvale] [Goblin Slayer Supreme] [High Priestess of the Sun] [Fafnir, the Pet Wyvern] And they seemed hilariously invested in their roles. What starts as a joke takes a bizarre turn. The more James participates, the more he notices strange phenomena: glowing runes on his skin, magic artifacts materializing from nowhere, an elder dragon in his garage, and a sudden mastery of dark magic. Things escalate when a private group chat, run by a perverted female King Arthur, invites him to [The Table of Beauties], a circle of god-tier roleplayers… or so he thinks. Soon, James learns the truth. The chat is an interdimensional nexus connecting real worlds where magic, legends, and gods exist. His casual banter and fake roleplay have turned him into a living, breathing Demon Lord, complete with a castle in Hell, loyal monster armies, and reality-warping powers. To make matters even crazier, his “friends” start visiting Earth, and they’re nothing like he imagined! ･･･ Discord: https://discord.gg/XRq3VeasqQ

Hazekaya was just an ordinary guy… until he woke up in another world. Sounds exciting, right? WRONG! Before he could even process his isekai moment, he found himself being chased by a horde of horny male orcs. From dodging unwanted "affections", to getting thrown in jail, to accidentally sleeping in horse crap and earning just enough to not starve. Between dealing with an ex-adventurer boss, getting tricked by his so-called "friends," and realizing even slimes are harder to kill than he thought, his life in this new world is anything but the overpowered adventure he dreamed of. Instead of becoming a hero, he’s stuck as a low-wage wall repairman, constantly broke, and now the locals call him "Shitman." With zero cheat skills, no legendary weapons, and a severe lack of dignity, Hazekaya is left wondering—"Why is my isekai life like this!?"

I am Racist. … I mean, my name is Racis T. I was a stand-up comedian. The flop one. The one who only get laughs when someone else is making fun of him. Anyway, I was doing one such show in a bar and since I like dark humor, I was cracking jokes around that. The show I was doing was in a run down bar, frequently visited by wicked tattooed motor bikers sort of people. I spewed some humorous jokes but no one seemed to get them as they were not laughing or maybe they got the jokes, that’s why they weren’t laughing. All in all, they were ignoring me. Being ignored didn’t sit right with my inner artist, who was starving to death, therefore, I decided to go darker. Though, I shouldn’t have done that. One of my jokes or maybe all of them triggered a man and as a result, he head-shotted me and I died on the stage. But see this : A man got triggered and he pulled the trigger. I did some word play here. But who cares. I am dead anyway. All I wanted was a successful show, people laughing and loving me and girls too. I am a true artist. I don’t care about money. All the money I would have earned I would be giving it to others. I would distribute 0.001 percent of all my money to the people in need. I don’t care about money at all. Nevertheless, a death is a death. So my story ended. Though, if there is an afterlife I would like to become a successful comedian, have a loving wife and have good enough money so I can afford only a three time meal and a humble private yacht or a jet will do too. I don’t care about money anyway. That was my dying wish. Though, I am using ‘though’ too much, don't mind. So yeah, as I was saying, I had that wish only if there was an after life and turned out… There really was an after life. Though, (‘though’ again?) it wasn’t what I wished for at all!! ——— ——— ——— Read My Review Gib Money - ko-fi.com/khyaal Join My Discord For Reference Arts and much more - https://discord.gg/zmUcswM2N5

Within the popular VRMMORPG "New Genesis", there was a ranker by the name of Arthur Holmes, commonly known by his in-game alias “Merlin”. Arthur was one of the few original beta testers still playing after 30 years, he was originally a ranker, a player whose entire goal was to stay at the top, ahead of everyone else. However after 15 years he sacrificed his player ranking in search of knowledge. Arthur became a lore hunter, a player who indulges himself with the world's vast lore and unexplored history, preferring to uncover the world’s secrets rather than endlessly fighting monsters. At the age of 48, 30 years after the game came out, Arthur uncovered the greatest secret of all, and yet, ironically, his negligence in levelling up was the one thing holding him back from realising his goal, he knew he would never be able to catch up to the rankers, a gap of 15 years was Impossible to overcome.

Betrayed. Starved. Left to die alone in a world that chewed up the weak and spat them out. Gu Qingran trusted the wrong people, loved the wrong man, and paid the ultimate price. But fate? Fate gave her a second chance. Reborn 30 days before the apocalypse, she refuses to be the naive fool she once was. This time, there are no attachments, no kindness—only power. With the Omni-Alchemist System, she can create weapons deadlier than an arsenal, fortresses stronger than steel, and medicines that could cure or kill with a single drop. While the world slept, she stockpiled. While they wasted time..she built an empire. When the world burned, she rose from the ashes—untouchable, unstoppable and unchallenged. Let the apocalypse come. Let them beg for mercy. Because in this life, Gu Qingran is no one’s prey. She is the storm.

Rionya Remae has only known neglect and lonely isolation since she was forced to join the royal family at the age of eight. The only thing that brings her joy in her love-deprived life is Tyrahnn Theodore Valdis. The moment she sets eyes on him, she yearns to gain his love. And yet...his eyes are set on another- and will never be for her. Not able to handle his rejection, she aims to poison his beloved and faces torture and persecution as a result. Exactly like the villain she is in this story. In her final moments, the man who brings the thing that kills her is none other than Klaus Armalli Siegfried. He is a man she hates purely for existing beside Myra, his younger sister, and the one who captured Tyrahnn's heart. He should despise her just as much as she does him. Instead, she finds he gives her the dignity and tenderness that no one has afforded her in the past. And she has been so very starved for it. This simple exchange engraves so deeply into her mind and soul that she finds herself committing to devote herself to him if there is something as a second life. When she gets that chance... just how will this journey unravel?

SYNOPSIS: "I Just Wanted to Work Abroad, But I Got Trapped in an Isekai?! Where’s My Money, Damn It!" Kosagi Hara, a former construction worker turned NEET, finally gets an enticing job offer from his friend. Excited, he sets off for a new life overseas… or so he thought. But suddenly, time stops. The world vanishes. And when he opens his eyes, he finds himself in the middle of an unfamiliar grassland, with no sign of modern civilization. No phone. No money. No food. No god, no mission, not even an NPC to greet him. Kosagi is now stranded in another world for no apparent reason. And worse… he’s starving.

In a future where healers are revered as fragile treasures, Ye Xing — a battle-hardened apocalypse survivor reborn with maxed-out healing powers — refuses to be coddled. Imagine a "combat medic who’d rather wield a plasma blade than a bandage". Disguising her identity, she enrolls as a mecha pilot, relishing the chaos of frontline skirmishes with the glee of a "caffeinated war god". But when her secret unravels mid-tournament, the galaxy watches in shock as this "delicate healer" decimates opponents with "the elegance of a ballet dancer and the ferocity of a starved dragon".

The world is ending in 30 days, and Leah Móu refuses to die twice. In her first life, she did everything by the book—waited for the military lottery, got a spot on their overcrowded ship, and died eight years into the journey. Starved, beaten, and forgotten. Now, she's back—thirty days before Earth's destruction—and this time? Screw the lottery. She wants luxury. She wants security. She wants a private ship. There’s just one problem. The one man rich enough to buy her a ticket off this dying rock doesn’t have a ship—because he’s not planning to leave. Kael Orion Voss—retired Alpha general, supermarket mogul, and certified pain-in-the-ass—fully intends to die with the planet. His genetically modified body is breaking down. He’s got thirty good years left, and he’d rather spend them sipping scotch in his penthouse than wasting a decade rotting in a tin can heading for Mars or so he thought. Leah crashes into his life—literally—with insane claims that Earth is about to explode. And worse? She wants him to gamble billions on a military ship auction he wasn’t invited to. She’s crazy. She’s desperate. So why can’t he bring himself to throw her out? Maybe it’s the way she knows things no one should know. Maybe it’s the fire in her eyes that says she’s already survived hell. Or maybe… it’s the way his Alpha instincts scream when she gets too close. Because Leah’s not just a con artist. She’s an Omega. His Omega. And the world may be ending—but suddenly, Kael has something worth living for. Release Rate: Weekday 2ch M-T BONUS: Reviews +1ch (Use+) Notes: Rewriting due to being too draggy

Jack, an ordinary man from Earth, is unexpectedly thrust into the mystical world of Aelso Continent, where ancient civilizations once merged magic and technology to create an utopian society. However, a cataclysmic event shattered this balance, leaving behind powerful relics scattered across the land—each containing the raw elemental forces of nature. Now, with dark forces stirring and threatening the world once again, Jack is the continent's last hope. Armed with S+ tier magic that encompasses all eight elements, he must gather the Magical Keys hidden within eight legendary relics. But these relics are no easy task to reach—each lies deep within the world's harshest, most dangerous environments, protected by ancient guardians and elemental trials. With the guidance of Alicia, a courageous princess with her own secret burdens, and the enigmatic Merlin, a master of ancient magic, Jack embarks on a perilous journey. To unlock the secrets of these relics, they must travel across the most treacherous regions: from the fiery depths of the Desert Relic to the flooded Ocean Relic, from the freezing caverns of the Metal Relic to the storm-ravaged Thunder Plains. Along the way, Jack and Alicia’s bond deepens, and a love neither expected begins to blossom in the midst of their trials. But as the land itself begins to change—mutating plants, beasts, and even the very sky—the true challenge lies ahead. The Light Relic, the ultimate key to saving or destroying the world, awaits. But first, they must overcome the growing darkness and awaken the dormant power of the ancient civilization before it’s too late. Will Jack and Alicia unlock the secrets of the relics and stop the coming disaster, or will they fall victim to the very forces they seek to control? Only time will tell in this epic adventure of magic, love, and survival.

In the year 4367, space is no longer the final frontier—it’s a playground for the rich, a network of luxury stations, high-stakes casinos, and floating estates orbiting the dying planet below. Earth, overcrowded and crumbling under political chaos, is a prison for those who can’t afford to leave. The universe belongs to the powerful. Or so they think. Emerald Voss never asked for a legacy. She built her own fortune through a wildly successful startup, but her father’s name still looms over her—one of the wealthiest resort tycoons in the galaxy, a man who owns entire moons. She’s never had to fight for anything, never had to care about anything beyond the next exclusive party or million-credit business deal. But all of that changes when one reckless, sleep-deprived decision leads her to stumble—half-conscious and starving—into the office of Lumina Zevaris. Lumina is a Krexal, a hulking reptilian warrior-diplomat feared across the stars. As one of the galactic ambassadors, she holds the fragile peace between humanity and the ancient alien civilizations that barely tolerate them. Cold, calculating, and battle-scarred, Lumina has spent years ensuring that humans don’t push too far, don’t step on the wrong toes, don’t ignite a war they can’t win. But the war is already here. A shadow moves across the galaxy—something ancient, something powerful, something that sees humans and all their petty wealth as nothing more than fuel. The great space stations and their golden towers will burn. The rich will flee, but there will be nowhere left to run. And somehow, Emerald is at the center of it all. She doesn’t know why. She doesn’t know how. But the universe—cold, uncaring, and infinite—has chosen her. And whether she likes it or not, she’s about to learn that some things are worth fighting for. That money can’t buy survival. And that in the end, the universe owes her nothing. This is the universe owes her nothing by yours truly. This is for an english project lmao.

From childhood, Zhuang Ziang was the golden child, the epitome of perfection, celebrated by all. Yet, behind the accolades and applause lay a heart starved of affection, fractured by his parents' divorce and his father's new family. At eighteen, fate dealt a cruel blow: a terminal illness and 3 months to live. Deciding to unshackle himself from expectations, he let loose his inner rebel. Amidst this newfound freedom, he met Su Yudie, a girl whose presence lit up his remaining days like a beacon in the darkness.

A man awakens in a pitch-black void, deprived of sensation, time, and meaning. Strangely, he does not starve, nor does he thirst—only his mind remains, restless and unrelenting. As the abyss threatens to consume his sanity, he spirals into madness, laughing, screaming, and rambling without end. What begins as a desperate grasp at logic turns into a revelation. Numbers are not mere symbols; they are reflections of a hidden order that has always existed. Mathematics is not an invention—it is a discovery. The laws of the universe were never created, only uncovered.
