When Cheng Guang woke up, he realized he had traversed to another world. He had thought his transmigrated identity would be the esteemed Princely Heir to the Duke, but he hadn't expected an additional (pseudo-) in front of it. It wasn't tragic, but it definitely wasn't great either, it was just very helpless. Cheng Guang had thought that being able to be a pseudo-Princely Heir was the biggest cheat in his life, but to his surprise, he was also bound to a system. This system was even more of a scam! It seemed to have bound him three thousand years too early! It started by telling him he had advanced to the Heavenly Human Realm and instructed him to confront the Empress of Great Zhou, who was also in the Heavenly Human Realm. But he was just a small potato! However, wait a second, the Empress of Great Zhou, years later, seems to be just a pushover right now? Cheng Guang became resolute and confident again, I got this!!!

James was a hustler who'd succeeded in retiring early, only for the pandemic to ruin all of his plans. He spent two years locked up inside playing video games and watching movies, only to be spiritually abducted just as the situation started improving. Now his name is Jin and he's a part of the Illusion Room Sect. A cultivation sect that creates scenarios for combat-focused cultivators to hone their skills. In other words, fully immersive video games. Will the gaming knowledge of his past life help him succeed in such a cut-throat world? Will he manage to break his two-year pandemic induced dry-spell? And most importantly, will he ever manage to surpass the rank of cannon fodder?

A retired adventurer sets out to chronicle his legendary exploits, only to find himself facing an all-too-familiar foe: writer's block. What starts as a minor frustration quickly grows into something far more troubling. As the days pass, the memories of his adventures begin to fade from his mind, slipping away like sand through his fingers. Desperate to preserve his past before it vanishes entirely, he embarks on one final quest.

Synopsis: Takeshi Mori, a aimless 40 year Japanese man having retired early in life with riches now wonders through the empty city streets at midnight as usual wondering what to do with his life, but that is all shattered as while looking up momentarily he sees an unfathomably big eye staring down at him, with one blink to check if he's too sleep deprived he is gone in an instant. And when his eyes open again, a forest greets him as searing pain jolts him wide awake as on the back of his right hand is a branded symbol of a shield. What happened? Where is he? What is the mark on his hand and what are the increasingly loud howls and growls he can hear coming his way? Story takes place in a fantasy world called Ender with high level magic, fantastical races such as Fae, demons, angels, Undead, merfolk, beast man and more. It'll also have some romance but it'll be a slow burn and i mean SLOW burn. Also i would recommend reading the prologue to get the whole picture and not just jumping into chapter 1. Person 1: Hey do you know where my dandelion is? Person 2: Um it's just over there. That's Your Dandelion right? Absolute Cinema: Those who know

Brass was just an ordinary guy, navigating his early thirties like anyone else. He’d been a fighter his whole life, toughened by hardship, but what he’s facing now is on a whole different level. Sure, he always figured death would come early for him—it was just part of the deal. But what he didn’t expect was for things to get even stranger after dying. Turns out, gods are real. The digital realm? Also real, apparently. And souls? They exist too. Oh, and just for kicks, they can be sent to new worlds with new bodies, only to be bossed around by some irritating entity that calls itself “The Great System”—or at least that’s what a god who’s now obsessed with video games has named it. So here’s to a new life in a new world… I guess.
