Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Shade_Arjuun
Everyday was the same for Skullius. An Undead minion of the lowest order like him, didn’t have to find a grand purpose… other than mining mana gems for his Lich master, of course. His peers thought so. They lacked ambition. To be fair, so did he. But there was just that something that kept nagging at him. A spark that no other skeleton seemed to have. Other than being the sassy bullshitter obsessed with mana that he was, why did Skullius vaguely remember being something other than a Moronic Undead drone once? What had come before his Undeath? In the end, it was this spark that allowed our atrocious hero to escape the clutches of his evil master and reach another world. And it is in this world, chock full of dangers – most beckoned by Skullius’ abnormally horrendous luck, to be honest – that the skeleton’s journey begins. In Aigas – the new world – he prepared for the greatest getback of an age armed with a power greater than that of the Liches of Deadmanland! ...... [Author’s Answers To Popular Readers’ Questions] Q: (IHateArjuun77) -Hey author, is your book trash?- A: (Author) -Haha, screw you dear reader. The answer is NO. The story has elements of comedy, action, magic, adventure and Brutality. Like it gets really dark sometimes. There’s a comprehensive story with characters that I tried my damndest to NOT make generic on top of a cool power system that’s for the most part easy to understand. So its not trash. Q: (IFreakingHateArjuun56) -Hey author why is your first volume so slow paced and... trash?- A: (Author) -Haha. It’s how I designed the First Volume to be. It’s a fun setup that doesn’t focus on many things other than the MC’s mentality, powers and route of progression. The next volumes are normal paced, focusing on the world, the villains and general expansion but all while still retaining the book theme and fun experience- Q: (ShadeIsAPervert001) -Hey author, I instinctively sense that I’ll hate this book, when should I drop? A: (Author) -Is this the same reader?! Anyway, I’ll give a range. Read a minimum of the first 20 chapters to a max of up to chapter 44 before you decide on anything too rash. I’ll hunt down this reader! --- Book cover art by Vicky.rae. Discord: [ https://discord.gg/8hcraTjzE9 ] Patreon: For custom art patreon.com/Livelysockets

Magic? More like Screw It

Elara Voss—Ellie—has never felt a single emotion in her life. No fear, no joy, no heartbreak. Just data points, observations, and a quiet, clinical curiosity about why everyone else seems so... noisy. At nineteen, she's a barista who counts pours like heartbeats she doesn't have, until one ordinary shift when blue floating text invades her vision: a System. It promises strength, levels, and quests. It demands she survive. Then it yanks her through reality into Ordelia—a medieval fantasy world of ancient forests, warring kingdoms, and magic that actually works. She lands barefoot in the forbidden Whispering Woods, milk pitcher still in hand, facing wolves and worse. The System's objective is brutally simple: Become strong enough. Or die trying.

EMBODIMENT PROTOCOL: MY ACTING BECOMES REALITY ​

Ten years of struggling at the bottom of the acting world didn't end in fame, but in a desperate cry and cold blood on the asphalt." ​Ryan lived his life as "scum" crushed by everyone; his dreams were stripped away by the injustice of the wealthy, and his fiancée betrayed him in his weakest moment, leaving him to die under the wheels of a luxury sports car. But death wasn't the end—it was merely the "opening scene" of a new story. ​Ryan wakes up in his old room, ten years in the past, with a second chance and a mysterious entity floating before him: [The Ability Embodiment System]. ​The rule is simple yet terrifying: "Act any role, and you shall obtain its abilities in reality." ​If he plays a genius, he gains transcendent intelligence. If he plays a warrior, he possesses lethal strength. But the System isn't always generous; its conditions are strict, and any "performance" error could strip everything away from him. ​With pale skin, a weak body, and a past full of scars, Ryan begins his journey from zero. This time, he won't just play the part... he will embody the destinies of giants to take revenge on those who trampled him, proving to the world that the "scum" crushed by life has returned to become an unreachable "Legend." ​"The whole world is a stage... and I am the only actor who holds the truth."

Spiral of Madness: Ascension of the Villainous Dragon Prince

On a fateful night, William—an ordinary man from Earth—finished a ruined route in his favorite game, Sinners Academy: Love at the End of the World. The next moment, he was eaten alive by the game’s final boss herself, dragged screaming into her world, the world he had ruined. And when his eyes opened again, he was no longer William. He was reborn as Louis Drakeheart, the third-rate villain of that doomed game—grandson of the Dragon King, son of Earth's unparalleled scientist-Esper and a Holy Dragon Goddess, yet still the failure who never awakened his draconic blood. He was known as the Mad Prince, the abandoned heir. The laughingstock destined to die forgotten in the Dimensional Labyrinth. But fate had finally bled him a cruel gift. Death Loop. Every agonizing death sent him back in time with his memories intact and sanity fragmenting piece by piece. One death at a time, he clawed through impossible regressions, devouring knowledge, forging forbidden strength and shattering limits once thought impossible to overcome. No longer would nobles trample him. No longer would horrors beyond the Dimensional Boundary devour his kingdom. No longer would his mother's eternal slumber remain unbroken. Through rivers of his own blood and the crumbling edges of his mind, Louis Drakeheart shall rise again, and again, and again... Ruthless, unhinged, unstoppable. The world that spat on him will kneel... or burn. This is the chronicle of the Spiral of Madness: the ascent of the Heir of Ruin, the Bringer of the End.

Monster Hunter: The Thunderous Trail of Coral Highlands

Death is not a "Game Over." It’s the end. When elite special forces soldier Leon opens his eyes, he isn't in a hospital or a debriefing room he is in the primordial heart of the Ancient Forest, staring down the jaws of a giant reptilian predator. He has transmigrated into the brutal, awe-inspiring universe of Monster Hunter. But this is no video game. There are no respawns. Here, a dragon's roar shatters eardrums, toxic miasma melts flesh, and a single mistake means becoming wyvern food. Armed with only primitive weapons, his hardened military instincts, and a mysterious System that grants him stat points and a "Lone Wolf" trait for solo hunting, Leon must carve out his survival in blood and bone. Alongside his loyal, trash-talking Palico companion, Dumpling, and forged through deadly encounters alongside fierce local hunters like Flora, he rises from hunting lowly beasts to dancing on the razor's edge against apex predators. But this world is descending into unprecedented chaos. The arrival of the colossal Zorah Magdaros and the "Eater of Elders," Nergigante, is just the beginning. The ecosystem is fracturing. A strange, unnatural madness is beginning to infect the New World, driving legendary Elder Dragons into apocalyptic frenzies. To survive this escalating threat and find a way back to Earth, Leon must uncover the dark secrets behind a forgotten prophecy: "When the Crimson Star burns through the night, humanity will reclaim its homeland." To stop surviving and start conquering, Leon will stand alongside the legendary Fifth Fleet, clash with the fiercest monsters in existence, and ultimately challenge the dark legends of the Old Continent. In a world where humanity is at the bottom of the food chain, there is only one rule: Hunt, or be hunted.
