Apex of the Unseen: The Global Terror System

In a world where everyone is granted a System at sixteen, Michael Cain was a historical failure. The heir to the legendary Cain Clan—a family of underworld sovereigns—Michael was timid, weak, and "system-less." His own parents, celebrated 'Heroes' of the Association, murdered his grandfather in cold blood before being silenced themselves. Left as a puppet for corrupt elders and mocked by his own servants, Michael was finally ended by a drop of poison in his tea. But death was just the beginning. A thirty-five-year-old otaku from Earth, a man who spent his life studying the psychology of fictional villains and masterminds, has taken the throne. Along with him comes a darker, more predatory power: The Global Terror Apocalypse System (GTAS). The mission is simple: To save a world rotting with "Heroic" corruption, Michael must become the very monster the world fears. By harvesting the terror of his enemies, he gains access to a Gacha containing the powers, weapons, and intellect of every villain across the multiverse. [Gacha Spin... Congratulations! You have obtained: Criminal Mastermind (Black Rank), Psychology King (Gold Rank), and Super Soldier Serum.] From a timid rich kid to the Apex of the Unseen, Michael will dismantle the "Hero Association" piece by piece. He won't just kill the criminals; he will make them beg for the law to save them from him. The King of Terror has arrived. And for those who stand in his way, even death is no escape.

Reborn as a Doomed Villain in a Yuri World

[Reincarnated Villain] + [System: Merit Points] + [Game World] + [Gender Bender] + [Fallen Noble] + [Villain MC] + [Multiple Female Leads] Wensley Fauce was born with a ruined name. Mocked by nobles, despised by commoners, and publicly rejected by the crown princess he loved since childhood, his life ended in humiliation, only for him to awaken memories of another world. This world was not reality. It was a girls’ love game he once played. And Wensley was not the hero. He was the most hated villain, a disposable male character fated to lose everything, descend into madness, and die brutally. His death existing only to push the female leads toward their happy ending. Worse still, the game’s true heroine had already lived through that future once. To her, Wensley was not pitiful. He was a future threat that should never be allowed to exist. With no allies, a shattered reputation, and a destiny that demanded his execution, Wensley is forced to fight fate itself. A strange system awakens, one that measures Merit, not strength. Acts of benevolence and goodness unlocks sealed bloodlines, forgotten authority, and a truth the Church desperately buried. As Wensley struggles to survive in a world that rejects villains, despises men, and worships false narratives, an impossible path opens before him... The rebirth of a Saintess, long believed extinct. In a story that never meant to save him, Wensley Fauce will prove one thing: He was never the villain. And this time, he refuses to die for someone else’s happy ending. Small Reminder: Early chapters focus on description and worldbuilding. The pacing is slower at the start, but it picks up as the story and characters get moving.

Lord Of Beasts

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your title is… Lord Of Beasts." But his awakening was wrong. Instead of power manifesting in the real world, Ethan was dragged into the Tower of Beasts - a brutal, game-like realm he could only enter while asleep. There, he hunts, tames, and evolves monstrous beasts that persist beyond his dreams… Registered as an E-Rank Titled with D-Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord Of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary means. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried. His beasts grow more dangerous. And the truth behind his title hints at something far older and far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as Lord Of Beasts, it's only a matter of time before he reaches the top! P.S.
