Reborn in modern Tokyo, Kuroha Akira comes back with exactly zero cheat abilities, zero morals, and zero motivation. His life goal is simple and noble: lie flat forever. Unfortunately, lying flat costs money—and working? Absolutely not. Since no elegant, rich onee-san is lining up to keep him, Akira pivots to a more long-term investment strategy: Find future rich girls. Raise them. Optimize favorability. Cash out dividends later. Think of it as angel investing—except the startups are people, the currency is affection, and the exit strategy is becoming a full-time kept man. This is Akira’s personal life hack: “Favorability is just an emotional stock market.” As long as he can manipulate emotional trends, hedge risks across multiple “portfolios,” and prevent any single relationship from crashing the whole system… A life of being financially supported until death is statistically achievable. Our slogan: “Lie flat. Rot slowly. Let someone else pay the bills.” *** But reality, as always, drops an unexpected patch update. Breaking News: The long-missing legendary entrepreneur and investor Kuroha Akira has been rescued after years of captivity. The prime suspects? Several women he maintained “complicated emotional positions” with during his high school era. Footage from the rescue scene captures Akira muttering in disbelief: “Why… I drained so much money… …and her favorability went up instead of crashing?!” *** His life ultimately proves two immutable truths: Emotional markets are more volatile than crypto. Being a kept man always comes with hidden costs. *** Disclaimer: Yes, this is a harem story. No, these heroines are not mentally normal. Proceed at your own emotional risk. https://patreon.com/BlackZetsu?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink

The Past: Elara Vance was a waitress working three jobs to pay her father’s medical bills. In a moment of reckless despair, she spent one night at a high-end masquerade gala with a man whose face she never saw, but whose touch she never forgot. When she discovered she was pregnant, her conservative family labeled her a disgrace and threw her out. With nothing but a few dollars and a dream, she fled the country. The Present: Five years later, Elara is no longer the girl in the stained apron. She is a powerhouse architect returning to her home city to lead the most prestigious project of the decade: The Vane Tower. The Conflict: Her client is Silas Vane, a man known for his cold heart and hatred for "social climbers." The moment they meet, the chemistry is explosive—and terrifying. Silas is haunted by a "phantom woman" from a gala five years ago, but he doesn't recognize the polished Elara as that girl. As they work closely together, Silas begins to fall for her, while Elara’s five-year-old son—who looks exactly like a miniature Silas—is hidden just out of sight. Elara must decide: Does she finish the project and flee again, or does she risk her career and her son's heart by telling the man who "bought" her for one night that he owes her a lifetime?

In the rotting remains of the Iron City, power isn't a gift from the gods; it’s a high-voltage current coursing through the veins of the elite. In this neo-medieval graveyard, the "High-Watt" nobility rule by divine right, their nervous systems naturally fused with the Aether—a glowing, digital radiation left behind by a civilization that collapsed into its own code. To be born without a "Circuit" is to be a ghost in the machine, a scavenger destined to die in the mud of the Scrap-Wastes. ​Kaelen is one such ghost. Born with a body that violently rejects the Aether, he is a "Dud," a man who should have been crushed by the weight of a world that demands magical conductivity to survive. But Kaelen has spent his life in the gutters, scavenging the discarded manuals of dead gods and the rusted processors of ancient war-machines. He has realized a truth that the Church of the Silicon Soul has spent centuries trying to bury: Life is the ultimate resistor. ​To touch the power of a god, one must first stop being human. ​Without a "Golden Finger" or a "System" to grant him strength, Kaelen builds his own divinity out of scrap metal and sheer, bloody-minded desperation. He creates the Terminal Protocol—a crude, manual heart-crank bolted directly to his sternum. By forcing his own heart to stop, he enters the Zero-Pulse State. In those seconds of clinical death, Kaelen becomes a perfect conductor. He isn't a mage; he is a short-circuit in reality. ​The stakes are as simple as they are brutal: The more risk, the more gain. ​Every time Kaelen flatlines to survive a fight, he experiences the "Dead-Zone," a realm of grayscale physics where he can slice through enchanted steel and outrun railgun fire. But the "Gain" comes with a devastating tax. Each flatline chars his internal organs, erodes his memories, and inches his soul closer to a permanent shutdown. ​This is not a story of a hero. It is the record of a man who works harder than anyone else because he has less than everyone else. It is a blood-pumping descent into a world where modern technology is treated as forbidden sorcery, and where a single scavenger will climb a mountain of corpses to become a Sovereign—not by breathing life into the world, but by mastering the silence of his own dead heart.

Kiran has lived her whole life under a curse — A curse that tightens around her heart with every passing day. Desperate and fearless, she performs a dangerous summoning, hoping to free herself from the fate that hunts her. Instead, she awakens the devil — Lucian. Cold. Untouchable. Bound to her by the same mysterious curse, Lucian is not just a stranger pulled from the darkness. He is tied to her heart in ways neither of them fully understands. Now fate has drawn them together, and the curse that binds them may be the very thing that destroys them. Because some devils are not summoned by accident… They are awakened for a reason.

The weakest girl in the apocalypse accidentally became the obsession of multiple apex predators. Unfortunately for them, predators don’t share easily. Felicity was supposed to die on the first day of the apocalypse. Zombies devour the weak. Beastmen rule the ruins of human cities. Strength decides everything now. Felicity has none. Small, soft spoken, and completely unsuited for a world like this, she survives only because Victor finds her first. Victor is a winged apex predator feared by every beastman who crosses his path. He does not protect strangers. But once he chooses something… he does not let it go. Unfortunately for him, other predators have started noticing her too. A wolf who watches too quietly. A snake whose patience feels dangerous. A lion who refuses to leave her side. Predators who should never share anything. Except her. Because something about Felicity is changing them. And in a beast ruled apocalypse, predators were never meant to share. Unfortunately for them, Felicity might be worth learning how.

Soren transmigrated into Lover’s Labyrinth, a dating sim, not as a protagonist, but as a side character. That should have been fine. But instead, he awakened the Perverted Harem System, which gave shameless quests so absurd that even thinking about them made him seethe in anger. “This is a dating sim, not a pornhwa,” he roared in rage. From academy life to dungeon trials, his peaceful plan began to collapse as the system dragged him into chaos, embarrassment, and dangerously effective “accidental” progress. If he wanted to survive one event after another, he had to complete indecent missions without getting himself killed or exposed, all while simultaneously building a perverted harem of heroines far stronger than him. Surely… nothing could go wrong. Right? ***

In this world, awakening a class is extremely rare, especially for children born from a simple background. But most nobles were blessed with the gift of awakening a class at the age of nineteen while only about five percent of commoners would be awakening theirs. However, every single one of them had only one goal in mind, to join the elite warrior party in eradicating the threats of their kingdom. Members of the elite warrior party had fame, riches and everything else anyone could ever asked for, so Ray felt ecstatic when he had been invited to join the elite warriors party. At the age of nineteen, he was from a remote village and all he had ever wanted was nothing more than to go on adventures with his new party members. However, things didn’t work out as he had planned it to be. Not only did he lost his mother, sister and childhood friend, he had also been treated poorly by his team members who were eager to get rid of him at the slightest chance they had. In the end, Ray was used as a sacrifice for their own selfish interests and all he could do was watch as they crushed his skull to paste. But luckily, Ray somehow found himself back to the very day he had Awakened his powers. And now, with the knowledge of the future at the back of his mind, Ray vows to find out the root behind his party members’ actions. Of course, he intends to also cruelly repay each and every one of them for what they had done to him, while also protecting those he had failed to save in his previous life. ======= [Void Magic], [Kingdom Building], [Heartwarming], [Dark], [Beast-taming], [Summons], [Action], [Level Up], [Conquer], [Second Chance].

The Valerith Empire claims it is protected by holy saints. That’s funny, considering how disposable people are here. I’m Lior Valen, second son of a Viscount—which is a polite way of saying I’m excess. Well dressed. Well educated and easily sacrificed. I also have a secret that would get me ruined if spoken aloud: I like men. I know this because I’ve lived once before, in a modern world where loving the wrong person didn’t come with a death sentence. That experience taught me an important lesson. Live quietly. Don’t stand out. Survive. Unfortunately, a masquerade ball ruined my entire plan. Because all terrible decisions are made at masquerade balls, someone suggested a game of truth and dare. I accepted a dare. I kissed a stranger. This was, in hindsight, a mistake. Because the stranger was the Monster of the North. Ruler of Skeldryn. Alleged executioner. A man rumored to kill anyone who touches him. I touched him. He did not kill me—which was unexpected. Instead, the monster became interested. Possessively so. He dragged me north, away from a lover who had already replaced me and a court that was more than happy to let me go. I followed—not out of courage, loyalty, or love. I followed because I enjoy being alive. Now I’m in Skeldryn, where saints are unreachable and monsters are persistent, and I’m beginning to suspect that surviving his attention might require more than luck. And possibly an exit strategy.

He was invisible. Until he ruined the night of the country’s biggest movie star. Leo works three jobs, carries his family on his back, and has no time for dreams of his own. His sister’s ambitions, his mother’s expectations, every responsibility falls on him—and he barely survives on coffee and exhaustion. Then one night, at a glamorous award gala, he spills wine all over Alexander Hale. Perfection. Fame. Untouchable. Disaster. Leo prays he’ll never see him again. He’s not that lucky. Weeks later, Leo is stuck on a remote film set as a lowly crew member… and Alexander is the lead. Suddenly, the star who should never notice him can’t stop watching. Quiet glances. Accidental touches. Moments stolen under the night sky. The world says they don’t belong together. One is a shadow. The other, a star. But when the person who sees you is the one you’re told to avoid, love becomes impossible to resist. Slow-burn romance. Hidden dreams. Sacrifice, lust, and a love that could ruin everything.

What's worse than dying? Never being able to. Rain stopped counting after the first million years. What's the point? Time doesn't move forward when you're immortal. It just piles up in a dull, agonizing way. He tried everything. Thrown himself into volcanoes. Stood at ground zero of asteroid impacts. Let plagues ravage his body. Let bombs tear him apart. Nothing worked. Then the nightmare came. While the world’s governments panicked, he smiled alone, eager to face the unknown. After an eternity of merely existing, he had finally found a new way to kill his boredom.

[+18| Adult Content | Dark | Erotic Mafia Romance] In Central City, everyone knows the name Marcone.

One moment, Harry is a prisoner—scarred by war, bound by loss, but unbroken. The next, he’s flung decades into the past… staring into the eyes of a young, dangerously brilliant Bellatrix Black. Now history hangs by a thread. With the future unwritten and both their fates unraveling, they must decide: Will they rewrite the world—or destroy it all over again?

In the era of the Old World, there walked women who did not merely cast magic, but breathed life into the world. They were the weavers of Black Magic, more commonly known as Witches. For thousands of years, the earth has been barren of them. For a Witch is not born, she is wrought. The scholars of the Old World claimed three conditions unlock this forbidden power: First, there must be the Drowning of the Heart. The woman must be pushed past the breaking point of human sorrow. Grief must become the water that drowns her humanity. Second, there must be the Sharpening of the Will. Hate must become the steel of her spine. She must choose not to weep, but to burn. Third, and most rare, there must be the Anchor of the Beast. A Witch without a tether is but a storm that consumes itself. She requires a devotion that rivals her own: a dragon who would trade his divinity to stand in the shadow of her thorns. When these three tides collide, the Mage dies, and the Witch awakens. It is said that when the Witch returns, the mountains will breathe again. The dead woods will scream, and the kingdoms of men will be reclaimed by a garden that never sleeps.

Long before humans built cities or named the sky, the Virel already existed. They were never myths. Never legends. Just older. Stronger. Born with power moving through their veins like a second pulse. Arya Ashen was raised to master that power. Control it. Contain it. Survive anything without breaking. She has never failed. But some power cannot be controlled. At the Academy of Velan, something ancient has begun to stir beneath the stone. Students collapse. Experiments push limits too far. And a force long buried in Virel history begins to answer again. Some believe it is forbidden. Some believe it is the future. Some would destroy anyone who awakens it. Then, at a masquerade filled with gold masks and silent politics, blood stains the marble floor and Arya realizes the truth too late. This power does not obey discipline. It does not belong to the careful. It chooses. And when it does, something always breaks. Sometimes the world. Sometimes the one who thought they were unbreakable.
