Soon he's the most feared student on campus, accidentally building a criminal empire, and somehow attracting a harem of dangerous women who think his "bad boy" act is genuine.

If the world had ended with powerful undeads around every corner, what would you do? Would hide from the world and slowly die or would you fight for your life and happiness If you were given the power to fight for your survival at the risk of your own humanity, what would you do? Would you fear that power or would you grasp it with both hands and fight until your last breath. [Author here! If you are enjoying this book then feel free to vote for it using power stones!

At the age of 16, Bian Yue became an orphan, inheriting a massive fortune from her family and becoming the wealthiest young heiress in Xiangjiang. The Li family, close friends with the Bian family, took pity on her and brought her to their home. Upon first meeting Li Siheng, he approached her past rows of black-suited bodyguards and tenderly offered to take her home, a gesture that would captivate her heart for a lifetime. At 22, Bian Yue managed to marry Li Siheng, but under the dim lights, he, with an indifferent tone, confessed his change of heart. Determined to part gracefully, Bian Yue resolved to give Li Siheng a decent break-up. * Xiangjiang's newspapers headline the daily news, reporting that Shen Jin, the head of the Shen family, frequently visits temples due to a terminal illness and is on his deathbed. People applaud behind closed doors, citing his ruthless actions as karma. Seeing this, Bian Yue devises a plan. During a continuous downpour in Xiangjiang, Bian Yue sits in the Shen residence, drenched. In the dim light, she sees the distinctly elegant and captivating Shen Jin and hesitantly proposes marriage, to which he coldly agrees. Their marriage is hastily arranged, stirring public uproar. * Meeting Li Siheng again after her marriage, Bian Yue takes shelter from the rain. Li Siheng rushes out of his car and runs to her, desperately holding her hand and pleading for a divorce so he could marry her. That night, Shen Jin, who was abroad, returns instantly upon hearing the news and confronts Bian Yue, who had just come home. Lighting a cigarette, he casts a more enchanting silhouette against the night, kissing her fiercely. He promises that the rainy season in the harbour city will end, and he will also wait for her return home.

Elias Angeles was never a hero. Just a decent man — a first-generation college student from a working-class family, quietly navigating the noise of adulthood. He never stood out. Never made waves. He studied hard, stayed out of trouble, and hoped it would be enough. Until one ordinary day in class… something changed. Ding! [System Activated] Welcome, Elias Navarro.

[Minor Healing Pill -> Body Restoration Pill ] [Slightly Stronger than Average Physique -> Primordial Stellar God Body] [Spirit Fox -> Nine Tailed Celestial Fox] Li Feng was an orphan on earth and after dying found himself to be reborn in a cultivation world. There he had a family and he was looking forward to having a fulfilling life. But even in his new life, Li Feng lost his parents again in an attack by demonic cultivators. Even he was captured to join a demonic cultivation sect where the value of a life was almost non existent. But even in this dangerous situation, Li Feng was determined to become stronger and take his revenge. And the reason for his confidence was the system that he had from his birth. This [Supreme Upgradation System] rewarded him with special cards that allowed him to upgrade various things including his own talents, cultivation methods and items. With this broken system of his, Li Feng was determined to take revenge for his parents and also to reach the peak of this cultivation world. ____________________ 1. No NTR or Yuri 2. Romance is not the main focus of this story but there will be a few love interests, so it's a harem. All the heroines will have their own story and none of them would be useless. 3. Little to no smut content but it will have quite a bit of gore as the setting is a demonic sect. So it's a 18+ story. 4. The MC will be ruthless to his enemies but he is not an "evil" cultivator. So he will not slaughter innocent people just because he could. But whatever he will do to his enemies would be horrific and worthy of his status as a "demonic" cultivator. 5. The MC would hide his true strength in the first few chapters when his strength is just too weak. It is absolutely foolish to not do that in a dangerous demonic sect. But after he had gotten decently strong, he will not continue hiding his strength without a special reason. 6. The MC will start as quite weak but not long after will became powerful. It is technically a "weak to strong" story but there will be a lot of scenes where the MC will be overpowered. There will not be many face slappings as the face of the enemy will not be there to be slapped. ____________________________ The Cover is mine so no prob.

You wanna hear about me? Really? Well, I'll do my best. My name is Osidious Vanir, and I was just your average, factory working, video game playing bum. Honestly, I wasn't going anywhere in my life. Not that things were bad, just boring. Unfulfilling to say the least. However, one day, our quality inspector, Elizabeth, asked me to meet her and other people "like us" at an undisclosed meet up location. She was fairly new, and yeah, I've had a crush on this beautiful woman ever since she started. I would have never imagined that single choice would change my life forever. Can I keep living the life I had, or will I be forever changed, and figure out exactly who or what I am? To my surprise, and with no complaints from me, I won't be alone, as I have drawn the attention and adoration of two wonderful women. Just a side note, if you don't like an overpowered main character, sappy love, or highly detailed sexual activity, I don't think my story is for you. I don't pull any punches, so you better strap in. If that sounds good to you, then I hope you enjoy the wild escapades of my "Ordinary" life, which is quickly becoming anything but that. Author's Note: I write for fun, and as such, when I'm not feeling it, sometimes there will be some discrepancy in my uploads. If anyone by some miracle actually enjoys my weird ass story, I appreciate it and I apologize for any indescrepincies. I only upload when the creative juices are flowing. I apologize for any spelling and grammatical errors you may experience, and I welcome anyone reading to point them out. I write everything by myself, and I'm kind of an idiot, so I miss things. I am still writing this book, but I have been going back and editing certain things to make the story both easier to read and make more sense. My scattered brain often misses and forgets stuff without me even noticing. I hope that dispite all of this, I can bring a decent enough story for people to enjoy. I am writing this story for no other reason than I want to, as I have a story I wish to tell. If you are here for it, I thank you. Think of this story as a rough draft, but also the story I wish to tell. I will occasionally add and edit things in to previous chapters for things to make more sense, to add context, or to further build the world/ characters. I hope to release this as a book one day, and even if I don't, at least I had fun writing it. If you don't understand what fiction is, then this isn't for you. Osidious Vanir treats his women with love and respect, and I find harem stories far more wholesome and fun than the ones where the MC takes 1000 chapters just to kiss a girl. F that noise.

Abandoned by Fate, but Chosen by Chaos. A world where magic reigns supreme and the mightiest wizards stand at the apex. A world where one’s mana affinity, if one even had it, determines one’s status in society, whether one could soar through the skies like a dragon or remain grounded, scraping by like rats or chickens. This was the world Hal Fennec was born into. Raised in the poverty of a border village, Hal had one wish: to give his mother a better life, one free from the constant fear of beast attacks and invasions by the Fellkin. But fate seemed to be playing a cruel joke. Despite being the brightest and most confident among his peers since childhood, Hal turned out to be barely qualified to become a wizard. His natural talent, contrary to his expectations, was nowhere near enough to fulfill even his modest dream of a decent city life. But then, just when his final hope was snuffed out and the future seemed gray and bleak, a twist of fate—or more fittingly Chaos—granted him a system that would turn everything around.

What if money was power? What if capital was magical? What if income was cultivation? What if a young man decided to destroy this unjust world of inequality and build a better one? That was exactly what Cæ (Cash) sought to do amid grief, anger, and hatred when he lost everything in an accident. Having come from nothing in the slums, his only goal had been to live a good life. By the age of twenty-two, he had finally managed to pull himself out of poverty with a decent job and romance. And then he lost everything he had ever built in an accident that left him in a coma for half a year. The world deprived him of the only person he had truly come to love. The predatory healthcare system burdened him with debt. The corrupt justice system deprived him of justice. The financial system robbed him of everything he owned. For the second time in his life, Cæ had been left with nothing. Well, almost nothing. The accident and the ensuing coma had altered his brain and mind, giving him an extraordinary talent for cultivating and mastering magic. He had been blessed with Acquired Savant Syndrome, a medical condition so rare that there were very few instances of it ever having occurred in history. It gave him endless potential and remarkable power. It gave him the power to destroy the world that he hated from the bottom of his heart. It gave him the power to destroy it and build a better one. And that was exactly what Cæ set out to do.

Reborn in a fantasy world with two brothers and a full set of parents Yeah, sounded decent until I realized my brothers were annoying, dramatic, and somehow even louder than me. Then my mother left me. Why? Because I looked too human. She took my elf-eared brothers and walked away. I got left behind with my poor human dad, in a crumbling farmhouse on the edge of nowhere. So here I am: a newborn, cold, cranky, and ready to fight the entire world. They can keep their glowing eyes and destiny speeches. i’ve got a skill system, a reputation to build, and receipts for everyone who ever doubted me. She wanted to throw me away? Big mistake. Huge.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm currently stuck in a video game. Like, literally stuck. As in, I fell asleep playing "Eternal Realms" and woke up inside the body of Eden Prairie, a third rate villain I had defeated along the game arc. Talk about a plot twist! Now, I'm navigating this bizarre new reality, trying to wrap my head around Eden's complicated past and the consequences of my own actions. It's like being trapped in a never-ending RPG, except I'm the "bad guy" now. With my gaming knowledge and instincts, I'm torn between redeeming Eden's reputation (yeah, right!) or embracing my inner villain (muahahaha!). But, let's be real, I just want to find a way back home and resume my normal gaming habits. Will I escape the virtual realm, or will I become forever trapped in this digital world? Can I find a way to balance my gaming skills with my newfound villainous tendencies? And, most importantly, will I ever get to enjoy a decent night's sleep again?

Lucian Merrin — a quiet teen, a decent student, a dream son — didn’t mean to cross a line. But once he did, there was no going back. A glimpse of an exam key leads him to the school's admin portal. And from there, to something deeper. A place where knowledge is power, and power is temptation. As Lucian explores systems beyond his age and reach, the world around him begins to shift. His grades soar. His friends drift. His heart races — not from guilt, but from what’s possible. But the deeper you go, the more alone you become. And the more you know, the more they start watching. Note: I know, it's a bit vague or maybe even corny but trust this stranger...

Fate knows that timid people won't amuse her, so she serves them plain death as a conclusion. Being a philosophy student, the sixteen year old Anglo-Japanese Craig Ichinose had a humble yet principled personality. But his main goal was rather jejune : living a decent and respectful life. If there was something he hated the most, it would be standing out from the crowd. He hated to become the centre of attention. However one day, his biggest fear came true as a life-changing event uprooted him from his sweet life of normalcy. Returning home one night from his high school's farewell party, Craig finds himself stuck in an array of supernatural events. He is stabbed in the chest by a mysterious man and as he is about to die, he sees ferrocious, otherworldly creatures appear out of countless red portals. "Please God, give me refuge in Heaven." is what he ponders on the brink of his death, but then, a saviour descends down from the skies who whisks him away to a different world. In this new world, Craig finds out that a mysterious race called the "demons" have waged a war against possibly every life form in existence. He learns that the destruction of his world was not merely an apocalyptic event but a planned invasion by this race. This single event landed the first blow to the strong foundations of his morality. The night he bid farewell to his school became the night he bid farewell to his own world. He accquired the status of a refugee – a stain he will carry forever. In this new world, he tries to survive desperately as he tries to keep up with the moral codes, societal norms of the war-wrecked times. What is this growing cruelty inside? Is violence, hatred and horror justified in a cruel world? What will Kanito choose – the newfound cruelty or the long-cherished empathy? Will he stick to his beliefs or will he give them all an egregious re-definition? Those will answered with the continuous march of time, revealing the refugee's and eventually the world's true purpose.

After suffering a ridiculous death in the modern world—run over by a girl fleeing a runaway boar—Kaito Yagami awakens in a new world... as the crown prince of the Demon Realm! But unlike what one might expect from a successor to the feared Demon King, Kaito has no thirst for blood or ambitions of conquest. All he wants is a comfortable bed, three meals a day, a decent harem, and plenty of free time. Lazy, perverted, and peace-loving, he intends to live his reincarnation as easily as possible. Unfortunately, the universe seems to have other plans. Wielder of the forbidden ability [Devourer]—which allows him to absorb the abilities and memories of the creatures he consumes—Kaito also carries within him the dormant power of the Seven Deadly Sins, sealed by magical chains that, if broken, could unleash catastrophic power... or something even worse: his true self. And as if that weren't enough, his family is a nightmare—or perhaps a wet dream—in and of itself. His mother, sisters, and even his aunt are beautiful, powerful demons, completely obsessed with him. Between political meetings, battles against sacred heroes, legendary monsters, and dangerously... embarrassing situations, Kaito must make a decision: Save the world, or stay in bed?

Is it wrong to kill to survive in this accursed world? This question plagued Xavier's mind, along with the nightmares, as he spent the rest of his days in prison. Which didn't seem long. In a ruined world where only the rich have what could be called lives, while everyone else clings to survival as their instincts demand. Xavier spent his days like all other prisoners, being used as an industrial slave, forced to fuel the destruction of his world and make the rich richer. That is until, the Ashari came, a race of Extraterrestrials with technology that far surpasses that of humans, arrived in their time of desperate need. Now, Xavier and other prisoners of Gensin Capital Prison are forced into a new hell, where they must fight against monsters for their survival. But the question still lingers, who are the most dangerous monsters? The monsters of the Deceitful Maw who seek to kill and devour them with every fibre of their being? Or their fellow humans who wishes nothing more than to exploit them in every way possible? Find out as you follow Xavier's story ***************************************** Hey guys, I have finished creating a, somewhat,decent discord channel for my novels.

Chu Ci had been abandoned by the Chu family for eighteen years until one day, the critically ill old man ordered someone to bring her back home.    Upon seeing Chu Ci, whose appearance was poor and unkempt, with his entire body being worth no more than a hundred yuan, everyone in the Chu family felt disgusted. The servants at home are dressed more decently than Chu Ci. How could their family have such a down-and-out daughter? Still considering dividing the inheritance of the Chu family? Absolutely not!  However, soon after, they discovered that something was wrong with the daughter they had left to grow up in an orphanage. She casually scores first place in the exam, has a safe filled with hundreds of thousands or even millions of top-quality jadeite, gives away a variety of high-end luxury goods, and is referred to as "boss" by various professors and bosses... Mr. Chu: As long as you make progress, the inheritance will be given to you.     Chu Ci: I just want to be a salted fish waiting to die.     A certain boss: I have a lot of money, come to my house and I will support you and take care of you.     Chu Ci: Are there any conditions?     A certain boss: Let me taste the salted fish.     Chu Ci: The salted fish is very salty and not tasty.     A certain boss: How can you tell whether salted fish is salty or not without trying it? "PS: I am an amateur translator. Please overlook any minor grammatical errors."

Sorcery and advanced technology. Diverse races and species. Science and superstition. The youth and adolescents are the undeniable future of this world, and they must be nurtured to carry that responsibility in a realm full of adventure. Gedi Ali, a high-school student enrolled in Rayleigh Madoka High, has come to realize that he doesn't like people or social interaction at all, despite being kind of relatively decent at talking to others. In short, he's a loser. If given the choice, he’d stay home all day, with a backlog of web novels he's been recommended online, and playing Arcana Online. Every day at school to him feels like he's invisible. To him, there’s no place in the real world for him—only the worlds within media. He believes his life is already set in stone, but if he could, he’d wish to be reincarnated a “perfect” avatar like hes created in games; just to get another shot at life.

Mystery is the nourishment that keeps me from being ordinary. It has been 20 years since he came to a world similar to the modern European background. With his early wisdom, Fei Lin learned a skill and finally became a decent person. Originally he thought that he would marry a wife and have children and live this life in a dull way, but found that there is another world under the shadow of the world. In that world, there are occultists who practice esoteric techniques and master extraordinary powers. It is weird to spy on humans in the dark and feed on humans. There are evil believers who worship the evil, please the evil through bloody sacrifices, and exchange power from the evil god. There is an evil existence who wanders outside the world, peeps at the world, and only infiltrates the power of scales and claws, which is enough to cause people to fall. With the mystery as nourishment, he is no longer ordinary after 20 years of ordinary.

What if every time you fell asleep, you woke up in another world? For 21st-century insomniac Zara, it’s not just a dream—it’s a literal nightmare. By day, she’s a snarky, sleep-deprived gen-z navigating annoying relatives, cursed carnivals, and suspiciously spicy garlic. But the moment she dozes off, she wakes up in a Victorian era fantasy—inside the body of a scandalous noblewoman, recently dumped by her cheating fiancé. Armed with sarcasm, a toy sword, and occasionally a Nokia 3310 (long story), Zara has to survive court politics, magical curses, and a confused male lead with chest hair insecurity issues. Oh, and there’s a twist: anything she’s holding while she falls asleep crosses over into the other world… until she drops it. As she stumbles through time, friendship, betrayal, magic, and mischief, Zara realizes that both worlds are connected by more than dreams—and her actions in one might just rewrite the other. But all she wants... is a decent night's sleep.

I died—and woke up inside a novel I was only halfway through reading. Not as the protagonist. Not even as a decent side character. No, I’ve been reincarnated as Brandy—the arrogant noble brat who gets crushed by the real main character in Chapter 2. And that protagonist? He’s a regressor. This is his second life. He knows every plot twist, hidden treasure, and future threat. And he’s not here to play fair. In his first timeline, he was beaten, betrayed, and broken. Now? He’s out for blood—and my family’s territory is his first target. If I lose, I don’t just lose status. I lose the chance to grow, to fight, to survive. He’ll rise. I’ll fall. Just like in the book. Unless I change the story. I still have Brandy’s memories, noble blood, and now, a fire of my own. This isn’t just his second chance—it’s my first. And now, it’s a race. A race between a hero who knows the future... And a “villain” who refuses to play his role. “He’s the regressor. I’m the rewrite. Let’s see who gets to the top first.”

Lust, a great sin fallen into poverty after losing his followers, descends to Earth in hopes of collecting sin points to restore his power.Becoming an idol seems like a decent job to earn points. Unfortunately, the idol world turns out to be far more exhausting than leading humans astray!

I possessed a minor character who marries the prince. I’m not thrilled about it. The prince is a s*umbag who flirts with the heroine despite being engaged and eventually gets defeated by the original male lead. In the epilogue, all he does is apologize to his fiancée and marry her, with barely a line to his name. Well, his personality is twisted, but at least he’s handsome. And since he’s the third prince, he doesn’t have to shoulder the burden of ruling the kingdom. That’s decent husband material, I suppose. Go ahead, make a fool of yourself. You’re going to marry me anyway. I’ll just sit back and enjoy watching your embarrassing history unfold. “Dory Redfield. Don’t expect me to ask you to dance at this ball. Maybe not at the next one either. Or the one after that.” “Yes, Your Highness. As you wish.” “Even though we’re engaged… wait, what?” “It’s just a joke proposal our parents once tossed around, isn’t it? You don’t need to take it seriously, Your Highness. I’m really fine with it.” “…Is that so? Yes, that’s… fine, right?” Why are you panicking, prince? You started spouting nonsense first. Where’s your conscience? But then, this guy really has the audacity to ask something outrageous. “…Do you, perhaps, have another man?” The guy who flirted with the original heroine is saying this now? Calm down. He’ll regret this later. All I need to do is remain a devoted fiancée until then. “What are you talking about? A woman like me… plain, not beautiful, with a gloomy personality, what man would even—” “What? Who dared to say that about you?” …You did, in the original story. This guy is acting weird. But he’s not the only problem. “My dear little sister Dory, that dress you’re wearing today is dreadful. No wonder there are rumors His Highness has abandoned you.” “Well, it can’t be helped. His Highness is too good for me anyway.” “…Hold on. Too good? Who said that? Wait, were you really dumped?” The original villainess, who also happens to be my older sister, Natalia, is suddenly interested in my love life. Why are all the original tr*shy characters growling at each other over me now?!

Leon Ebusci's life takes a sudden turn when he wakes up in a fantasy world where superpowers and strength control everything. Weak people are treated unfairly or even die if they try to fight back. So, needless to say that a teenager like Leon, who hasn't done much in his life, has absolutely no chance of survival! Starving and desperate, Leon encounters Owen—an eccentric young man with an unusual offer: join his assistant agency and complete various missions in exchange for the resources required to live a decent life. Leon accepts, and now he must push himself to the limit in order to fullfill his new role against an ever-growing danger!

Sera Vane is a sixteen-year-old "Rank Zero," openly labeled the worst rank in a culture that ranks everything in its pursuit of power. In the city of Velatrix, rankings dictate all aspects of life—school placement, social status, even access to clean water or decent housing. For Sera, it's a daily life of invisibility and humiliation at high-status Lunaris High, where walls themselves respond to student rank. She's the one in the gray jacket. The system failure. The punchline. But Sera is not who she seems. She's been suppressing random outbursts of energy since she was a kid—episodes she can't explain, filled with static interference, hot-hot equipment, or machinery that inexplicably turns off when she's around. Her sister Jin has begged her to keep quiet, stay hidden, and stay alive. The last time anyone saw her power manifest, someone died. As Sera drifts through school on a wave of taunts and exclusion, she discovers quiet friendship in Lio Dane—a friendly but seemingly low-ranking student who never once treats her like a ghost. Lio is actually a committed agent of an underground resistance, tasked with protecting her. For Sera isn't merely a statistical anomaly. She's a Sovereign-class Conduit—an ancient, feared source of power who can speed and shape energies flowing around her, including other people's abilities. When a synthetic foe attacks Lunaris High in what should've been a routine drill, the best students die. Spies are mobilized. The defense net crashes. But Sera, unranked and unarmed, steps forward—and reality is remade. Her power explodes to life, driving the foe away and bending reality's laws. For the very first time ever, the system recognizes her. And the system goes nuts. Headmistress Calaine Voss, the architect of the academy's ranking system, sees Sera as a threat and initiates the Strata Protocol—a black-budget program designed to put down renegade powers. But she's too late. Word of worldwide transformation seeded by Sera spreads, and a hidden network of retired Conduits and loyalists is reactivated. Lunch ladies, janitors, medics—those the system has all but forgotten are in line to join her. Through flashbacks, sabotage, and slow-cultivated allegiances, Sera learns the truth of her origins—and its terrible price. The regime murdered the last monarch she is now being asked to kill. The power that rests within her could liberate thousands—or enslave them. As Sera is born into the world, her grip on self slips. Everyone wants her to be something: a prophecy, a weapon, or a queen. But Sera doesn't want to be anyone's fate. She wants a life. A voice. A choice. In the confrontation, she battles Calaine with not vengeance but clarity. Sera addresses the ranking system deception and releases a power flash that disables the scanning infrastructure throughout the city. She refuses to insert another hierarchy there. Instead, she disappears—blending again into the populace, refusing power in an addicted society. But she is not lost. And she is not alone. We observe that at the end of the novel, Sera walks backstreets with her sister and Lio, her glyphs pale but not dead. Power hums in her flesh but no longer governs her. Because her rank is gone. But her legacy has only just begun.

Ken Shimizu had always lived a quiet life. He wasn’t a genius or a failure—just a regular guy with a decent job in an indie game studio, an obsession with ramen, and a library of half-finished Steam games. At 32, he could code, write basic dialogue, and pixel art his way through most things. Nothing spectacular. But he loved games—not just playing them, but imagining what they could be. Then, he died. Not in a blaze of glory. Not even in a tragic accident. Just a poorly timed heart attack while stress-testing a buggy horror VR build at 3 a.m. He blinked. And opened his eyes to a new world.

Mr. Johnson's stepdaughter, whom he had been taking care of for fifteen years, surprisingly ran away, and she disappeared for five years. Five years later, Mr. Johnson finally found her. Mr. Johnson, looking at his bride-to-be, who had turned into a beauty, said, "If you can come up with a decent excuse, I might be gentle with you later." Amanda Smith awkwardly said, "Well, I... I was hesitating." "That's a fairly good reason, you've been hesitating for five years. It's time to decide, right?" Amanda Smith looked at him sorrowfully, "I, I have hesitated so long, I've forgotten how to decide." "Oh, no problem, just decide on me. After all, I'm quite good at catching people!"

Han Jiwon has died 999 times. Once from eating a poisonous herb. Once from touching a glowing relic that said "DO NOT TOUCH." And once—shamefully—from taking a nap inside a dungeon beast’s nostril. But Jiwon isn’t a hero. He’s not even a hunter. He’s the first awakened, doomed to relive the same 266 days before the Grand Merge—a cosmic event that will fuse 50 worlds, open dungeons, and release chaos across Earth. After failing 999 times, Jiwon gives up on saving the world. This time, in Loop #1000, he just wants to survive. And maybe cook a decent stew without dying. With his new passive class Cosmic Chef, a snarky spatula named Kevin, and the ability not to die once per day thanks to the skill Cosmic Conductor, Jiwon sets out to do the impossible: Open a restaurant in the middle of the apocalypse. But survival has never been that easy. From dungeon bosses with food allergies, to heroes who’d rather fight than eat, and interdimensional customers with odd cravings—Jiwon’s journey is just beginning.
