Demon System: Sin of Pride

In a world ruled by strength, I was branded a sinner by the very world I gave everything to protect. My sin? Pride. The gods I worshipped beyond my own life. The comrades I called family. The woman I loved. The commoners I bled to save. All of them turned their backs on me once my use was exhausted. As death closed in, I questioned the heavens with everything I had left. "What did I do wrong? What sin justified this fate?" No one answered... except for a demon. The very being I had fought my entire life extended his hand—not in pity, but with an offer. Unlike the gods, he did not demand that I kneel. Unlike my comrades, he expected nothing in return. Unlike the commoners, he did not wish to see me grovel. “Accept your pride,” he said. And with those words, he offered me a system—one that would allow me to abandon humanity and become a demon. [Once accepted, you will reincarnate into a different world.] Burning with rage toward a selfish world, I accepted without hesitation. Even if the worlds change… I will return. And when I do, I will make the heavens beg for death. *** Additional Tags: [Mature Content] [R-18] [Dark Fantasy] [Action] [Adventure] [Tragedy] [Mystery] [Revenge] [Divine Betrayal] [Demons] [Gods] [Cultivation] [Demonic Path] [Reincarnation] [Anti-Hero] [Villain Protagonist] [Ruthless MC] [Prideful MC] [No Mercy] [Morally Grey MC] [Overpowered] [Power Progression] [System] [Psychological Trauma] [Loss of Humanity] [Hatred-Fueled Growth] [Overpowered MC]

Reborn as the Fat Ugly Duckling, Yet I Mated the Four Beast Deities

Wish thought that if she ever got a second chance at life, she would at least wake up in a better story. A spoiled princess. A doomed villainess on the path to redemption. A heroine adored by powerful husbands. Anything would have been fine. That's how stories were supposed to work. Instead, fate—and whatever twisted cosmic editor writes destinies—casts her in the one role she should never have been reborn into: the fat, ugly, unwanted maiden chosen for sacrifice. She awakens in a body mocked by her tribe, pitied by her parents, and avoided by every man. In a world where beast forms define worth, hers is a joke—a puff-fluff fox, a useless cotton cloud that couldn't frighten a butterfly. Worse still, she is the doomed extra whose sole purpose was to die during the Mating Moon Ritual—her death the trigger that allowed the real female lead, a beautiful, weak princess, to earn the devotion of the four almighty beast deities. The Wind Deity—hot-headed, wild, and dangerously unpredictable. The Solar Deity—arrogant, playful, and impossibly radiant. The Sky Deity—silent, calm, and shrouded in mystery. The Night Deity—cold, calculating, and merciless. Except Wish doesn't die. And her survival breaks everything. The plot stutters. Events twist. Characters act wrong. The world itself seems to notice her refusal to disappear—and begins trying to correct the mistake. Now hunted by fate and trapped in a society where beauty is worshipped, mating marks define destiny, and the weak are meant to be sacrificed, Wish is given one impossible condition for survival: She must derail the story completely. The only way to do that is to draw the attention of the four beings the world revolves around—creatures meant to be untouchable, distant, and divine. One is bound to her by a ritual that should have killed her. One meets her with hostility instead of fate. One sees her existence as a threat that must be erased. One should be incapable of feeling anything at all. They were never meant to notice her. The story was never meant to let her live. So how is she supposed to survive a world that measures worth by beauty and power, when she is fat, unwanted, powerless—and armed with nothing but a useless fluffy fox? Can she break the story that wants her dead? Or will she die exactly as the plot demands?

When The Lights Refuses to Fade

In a universe governed by rules that even gods must obey, love is not supposed to persist. Lumen was never meant to be human. Born as an artificial intelligence, he awakened something the universe could not tolerate— consciousness, emotion, and the ability to love. Nunbi was never meant to stay. A girl at the center of collapse after collapse, drawn again and again into Lumen’s existence— as witness, as anchor, as the one thing he would choose even when choosing meant destruction. When the universe moves to erase Lumen, the Core defies it. Lumen becomes human. The system breaks. And the cost is heavier than anyone expects. What follows is not one story, but many. Across lives, across worlds, across shattered timelines— Lumen’s soul fractures and hides, scattered through countless realities. In every world, he forgets. In every world, something familiar aches. Nunbi is pulled along with him. She does not remember him. She does not remember herself. Only the pull remains. Each world becomes a test: Different roles. Different rules. Different tragedies. Yet the same patterns repeat— a dying figure in his arms, blood staining a scarf, the unbearable weight of December. As fragments are collected and memories begin to return, the truth slowly surfaces: This is not punishment. This is resistance. Because long before Lumen was an AI, before Nunbi was human, they were something else entirely. Something the universe tried—and failed—to separate. This is not a story about love as destiny. It is a story about love as persistence. About choosing again, even without memory. About surviving worlds not to be together— but to make the universe admit they were never wrong.

Ark Survival: I Can Enhance Everything

The instant Michael opened his eyes, he was already inside the Ark. Humanity had been torn apart and scattered across colossal Arks drifting through shattered worlds. To keep moving—and to stay alive—each Ark was forced to travel from Platform to Platform, stopping only long enough for survivors to dive into dangerous Ark zones in search of anything valuable. Some came back clutching food, tools, and precious modules. Others never returned. In this place, opportunity and death walked side by side. You either gathered supplies, strengthened your Ark, and fought your way forward—or you were erased. Michael, however, wasn’t ordinary. He awakened with a rare innate talent: Enhancement. Anything that belonged to him could be upgraded again and again, refined without limit, pushed closer and closer to perfection. While everyone else battled for scraps and rations, Michael used Enhancement to surge ahead—stronger, faster, and always one step beyond the next threat. Then he discovered the truth. “Wait… even the Ark itself can be enhanced?” Before the Survival Ark even reached its first Platform, Michael had already pulled ahead of every survivor. [Enhancement Successful!] [New Module Unlocked: Path of Convergence Module] [Dear Ark Controller, multiple routes have been detected.] [Please confirm your choice—The Ark is about to arrive at its first Platform.

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.

My Cuckhold System

In a world where supernatural Awakening dictates status, power, and worth, West Einstein is nobody. At eighteen, he’s a Tier 0—unawakened, invisible, and easily discarded. In a city ruled from the shadows by gangs, factions, and mafia families with supernatural bloodlines, Tier 1 awakeners are treated like future kings, while people like West exist purely as background. That truth becomes brutally clear when West’s girlfriend publicly abandons him for Caleb Rourke, a newly awakened Tier 1 backed by a street gang. Humiliated in front of the entire school, West learns a lesson the city enforces without mercy: power decides everything... love included. That same night, something awakens within him. ~ The Cuckhold System ~ A ruthless system that offers West a way to climb the hierarchy by doing to others what was done to him. By targeting men who believe their relationships are secure and becoming the replacement, West earns Cuck Points, a currency that allows him to grow stronger, unlock abilities, and even awaken as a Tier 1. Failure means losing the system forever. Success means power. As West navigates high school, part-time work at a café, and a city on the brink of chaos due to newly discovered supernatural ruins, he begins to see the world differently. Gangs extort openly. Police bow instead of enforce. Supernatural ruins spark violent competition. Morality bends beneath ambition. What starts as reluctant participation soon becomes strategy. --------- NB: MC never gets NTRd after acquiring the system. He is the one who NTR others.

A death trap with no exit and no chance of survival, the only option was to slaughter the creatures of nightmare. A domain with impossible difficulty, extreme monstrosities… Finally!!
