No ordinary human on Earth knew about the catastrophe that was approaching. Only Earth’s Guardians were aware of it. They had protected Earth for ages, but this time, they decided to give Earth’s youth a chance to rise. With the help of Angels, massive magical pillars descended across Earth. These pillars became gateways, sending the youth of Earth into different magical worlds where survival itself was a test. Each person would be sent to a separate world and forced to grow stronger or perish. Ji-Hoon was one of those youths. On Earth, he was just an ordinary human—someone who understood the cruel reality of the money system. He had no outstanding talent. He wasn’t good at studies, nor did he excel in sports. His relationships were broken, and eventually, he was thrown out of his own home. Ji-Hoon lived at a friend’s house. Although he had a few close friends, his life on Earth was nothing more than survival. To stay alive, he walked down the wrong path and committed crimes. When the Angels sent heroes to the fantasy worlds, they made a ruthless decision. Criminals who had never been caught were sent to the most dangerous locations imaginable. Ji-Hoon was one of them. He was thrown into a deadly valley—one of the most dangerous places in that world. Unlike others, he had no system to guide him. The only thing he possessed was his own will… which manifested as a mysterious Will Sprite that chose him. With nothing but his determination and that single companion, Ji-Hoon began his deadly adventures. He was never someone who accepted defeat. Step by step, through pain, fear, and loss, he continued to grow stronger—experiencing everything a human goes through while evolving under extreme conditions. Standing against fate, against systems, and against the world itself, Ji-Hoon continues to rise. Even without a system, he challenges the rules and moves forward—ultimately becoming someone capable of saving Earth.

Young Master's PoV: Woke Up As A Villain In A Game One Day

"Now you see?" she shouted in a tone that was somewhere between annoyance and disappointment. "You can’t outsmart Scrients! They’re the most intelligent beings across the two realms!" "You’re right," I muttered, averting my gaze with a solemn sigh. "I made a mistake. I was arrogant to think a mere human like me could fool them." —BOOM!! "...Wh-What was that?" "Hmm? I’m not sure. Maybe you should go and ask the most intelligent beings across the two realms. Oh wait! You can’t. I killed them all." --- My name is Samael Kaizer Theosbane. On the last day of high school, I got into a fight with a kid I used to bully. It was a stupid and pointless scuffle. And in the middle of it, I tripped and smacked my head on a rock. That’s when the memories came flooding in… Memories of a different life. Memories of another world. Suddenly, everything made a twisted kind of sense. I realized two things. First: I was inside a game I used to play in my past life. Second: I was a villain. A villain! Not the cool, mysterious, tragic kind either! No, I was the worst kind of cliché — a spoiled, insufferable, and arrogant young master. The sort you'd find in those poorly written fantasy stories. You know the type! The one everyone hates. The one the hero would beat into the ground to show everyone just how strong and righteous he is. Yeah. I was that guy! My fate was to be a stepping stone for the main characters, be manipulated by a Demon Prince, and die a dog's death. And the hero? The hero was the same kid I’d been bullying all this time. The one I just got into a fight with. He was supposed to be the savior of this damned world. A world teetering on the edge of destruction, beset by wars, calamities, and a grim future that only I knew. And waiting at the end of it all was the final antagonist. The unbeatable nightmare. …The Spirit King. But could I even make it to the end? Could I really survive in a game where defeat was the only certainty? A game that had now become my reality? “Ah, fuck it.” I had no idea if I could. But I sure as hell was going to try. Extorting extras, manipulating main characters, altering the story to my advantage, stealing the hero’s cheat items, killing villains long before they could become threats — nothing was beneath me. Would the main characters be affected by my actions? Excellent! Would the story change? Even better! All I cared about was me. My survival. My life. My choices. “I’ll live this life with no regrets.” ...But as I soon discovered, fate wasn't so easily changed. And the price of rewriting your destiny was steep. ========== Discord Server: https://discord.gg/VjFQtDUaTR

The Curious Case of Corvus Marvolo Lestrange

One Friday night, an ordinary man stumbles home from an office party, drunk, disoriented, and unaware that a single misstep will end his life. When he wakes again, it is not in a hospital bed, but in a cold manor, in a child’s body, attended by a sobbing house-elf calling him “little master.” The world around him is wrong, uncanny, and terrifyingly familiar. He has been reborn as Corvus Marvolo Lestrange. Son of Bellatrix Lestrange. Heir to a bloodstained legacy. A name that should never have existed. As fragmented memories of his former life clash with the grim reality of the Wizarding World, Corvus struggles to understand where and when he has landed. Is this the world he remembers? Or a twisted variation where fate itself has been rewritten? The truth becomes undeniable the day he is presented before a pale, red-eyed man seated in his grandfather’s chair. A man who smiles thinly and speaks his name with interest. Lord Voldemort. “Here comes my son,” Bellatrix announced proudly. “Corvus Marvolo Lestrange.” The man’s gaze pinned him in place. “Ah, Marvolo,” Voldemort murmured. “I sense potential.” “Yes, sir,” Corvus replied automatically. “You may address me as My Lord.” “Yes, My Lord.” Voldemort smiled thinly. “No need to be nervous. I am Lord Voldemort. It should be your pleasure to meet me.” Pleasure My Ass !!! Corvus wanted to say, but he just smiled weakly. From that moment, Corvus realizes that survival will require more than silence and obedience. Born into darkness, surrounded by monsters, and carrying a name that invites destiny’s gaze, he must decide whether he is merely a pawn in a grand design or something far more dangerous. Because in a world ruled by prophecy, power, and bloodlines, the greatest threat may not be the Dark Lord…
