Soul Society: My Zanpakutō Can Contract Fallen Legends

RoyalInk
Reborn into the noble Shihōin clan, Kaito carries the ghost of a past life where he died powerless and forgotten. He discovers a horrifying truth: the multiverse is broken, and the souls of legendary heroes are not reborn, but erased from existence. Armed with a unique power to anchor these fading souls, he sees an opportunity a chance to forge the ultimate security by salvaging greatness from tragedy and building an army loyal only to him. Driven by the belief that absolute control is the only shield against helplessness, Kaito begins his clandestine war. He becomes a scavenger of tragedies, recruiting fallen icons like the legendary Sannin, Jiraiya, not as allies, but as assets in his meticulously planned coup. While he builds his secret army to dismantle the Soul Society from within, he must maintain a flawless facade, navigating treacherous political courts where any misstep means annihilation at the hands of masters of deception like Sōsuke Aizen. But every soul he saves comes with a price. His ruthless pragmatism threatens to turn him into the very tyrant he seeks to overthrow, and the legends he commands begin to question the man behind the mission. As the noose tightens and his ambition puts him on a collision course with the gods of his new world, he must confront the ultimate cost of his war. When building a better world requires you to become a monster, is the price of safety worth the damnation of your own soul?

Surviving A Novel I Don't Remember: A Tutor's Guide To Staying Alive

"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child barely spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son slowly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm conversations, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Empire started falling apart. A masked criminal began tearing through the capital, and Julian started waking up with missing memories and an unsettling sense of déjà vu. No wounds. No explanations. Just the feeling that something had happened—and that he was better off not remembering it. He had thought he was the one being hunted. But the higher the Duke's affection climbed, the more frequent the blackouts became, and the more a terrifying possibility took shape. He came here to survive the story. Now, he was starting to suspect the Duke wasn't protecting him from the plot at all… He was protecting the plot from him.
