Quick Transmigration: Changing the Male Lead's Terrible Fate

On the fourth day of May, Kevin was murdered in his apartment. He has no enemies and no friends. His parents have their own families, and he lives alone in a 200 meter square apartment – in other words, he does not have anyone who bores hatred against him. But he died. And the police concluded his death was an act of revenge homicide. Kevin pondered who would kill him when he suddenly woke to unfamiliar surroundings. And it took a few minutes to be processed in his head… Why are the furnitures so big?! The bed's mattress is so wide it's like the whole floor uses it as a floormat! The window is so high Kevin felt he was inside a church with glass walls as high as a three-storey building! Even worse, the appearance of a flower vase at his side is as tall as him! What the hell is going on?! [Host, you now possess the identity of the Male Lead's precious cat!] Kevin: What did you say? [Current Mission Progress: 0%] [Host, please work hard and prevent the Male Lead's terrible fate!] Kevin: …… What nonsense?! I just died! ………………………. [Host, the villain is one step closer to harming the Male Lead's life! Please prevent them!] Kevin: …… [Host, a villain's lackey wants to kill the Male Lead! Please stop them!] Kevin: ….. [Host, the Male Lead incurred a huge loss because of the villain, please bring him home and pamper him well!] Kevin: …… [Host, the Male Lead is injured because of the villain! Please nurse him back to health!] Kevin: …… Am I the Male Lead's mom or a pet?! ______________________________________________________ Updates are on Wednesday and Thursday.

F-Rank Beast: The Heroine's Useless Partner

"When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back." Yandere MC - yes Weird and mysterious protagonist - yes Harem – no (absolutely not) Single female lead – yes Fantasy world - yes Academy life - yes Well-written, coherent story - yes An author who loves lemon tea - yes _ _ _ In the Empire’s most prestigious academy, a single moment can change the course of an entire life. Alicia Emberlune is the last remaining descendant of a bloodline despised by the Empire, the legendary Witch Clan. For her, entering Aethelgard Imperial Academy is not simply a step toward education. It is a fight to prove that she deserves to exist. On Soul Binding Day, the creature she calls forth will determine her destiny. As extraordinary students summon radiant and powerful beings of S and SS Rank, Alicia’s hope wavers. When her turn finally arrives, something appears that no history book has ever mentioned and no scholar has ever witnessed. A small boy with a human appearance sits silently at the center of the ritual circle. His skin is pale as death and his eyes are entirely black, devouring light like a void. The measurement orb does not react to him at all. The judgment is delivered with merciless clarity: F Rank. A humiliation so rare that the Academy has not recorded a similar incident in more than a century. Alicia becomes the target of ridicule and escapes the auditorium in tears. She does not yet know that this strange child is not a creature like the others. He is a being torn from another realm, an existence without name or origin, drawn to her by an instinct older than memory. To this child, Alicia is light, warmth and the only piece of truth in a chaotic world. Even after being rejected, he continues to seek her with silent and unwavering determination. As he wanders the Academy, something ancient and dangerous begins to awaken within him. This is a tale of strength, hatred and destiny reshaped by an unexpected bond. Alicia cannot yet imagine that the child she summoned, the one the world labels as F Rank, may in fact be the beginning of a nightmare powerful enough to shake the foundations of the Empire.

I Became the Simp Character I Roasted Online

Listen to me closely. Never, and I mean NEVER, leave a hate comment on a game forum right before you die. My name used to be... well, it doesn't matter. I was a 34-year-old salaryman who died in the stupidest way possible. How? I got slapped to death for grabbing a high school girl’s "assets". Wait, hold on! Don't look at me like that! It wasn't my fault, okay? My hand just moved on its own! It was just a tiny, split-second intrusive thought! Come on, you guys reading this—don't act like saints. You’ve had those dark urges too, right? You’ve wanted to grab something forbidden at least once in your life, right?! RIGHT?! Anyway, she slapped me. So hard my soul literally ejected from my body. I thought that was the punishment. I was wrong. When I opened my eyes, I was in [Legends of Valtheris]. Yes, that trash game. The one with the cliché plot where the world ends because some teenage students get their hearts broken. And the worst part? I didn't become the Hero. I didn't become the Villain. I became Revan von Alstaire. The background character. The loser. The guy I literally insulted online five minutes before I died. I called him a "Simp" and laughed at his "Tiny D*ck." Fate is truly a comedian. Now, I’m destined to be the bullied lackey of the future Villainess, Sylvia von Vespera. The game script says I should lick her boots, accept her abuse, and die with her like a loyal dog. Screw that. Remember my last comment? "Revan is such a loser! Tiny dck! If I were you, instead of bowing down, I would squeeze her boobs and own her completely! Garbage character!" Well, it seems God took that personally. Fine. You want a show? I’ll give you a show. I won’t be a simp. I won’t filter my words anymore. I’ll let my intrusive thoughts win. I’ll turn this trash plot upside down—even if I have to slap every "Genius" in this academy to do it.

I Wanted a 2D Harem Isekai, Got a Rule-Horror Game

Crossing into the 2D world, with both parents dead, money in my pocket, and a place to live. Even if the universe’s ‘no-imouto clause’ is in effect, this still looks like the classic daily-life harem-protagonist trajectory in a 2D world, right? Surely next comes the otaku-bait development, a wonderful story of being surrounded by girls, yes? [Welcome to the “Sacrifice Game.” We wish you the chance to witness the end within true fear.] Wait a sec— This script isn’t right, is it? Corpses whispering, shadowed pits creeping, paper effigies asking for directions, a cursed village’s night patrol, an eye peering from under the bed… Grotesque rules weave a blood-stained net; there is no escape. Only by facing the endless nightmare head-on can one fight for a sliver of life. So, since I’m being entangled by all these horrors, can I get a system? Preferably the kind that becomes overpowered just by checking in! While I was thinking that, I realized I’d gotten the ability to roll back after death. It sure is a cheat—but doesn’t that mean I have to keep betting my life on trial and error? I refuse! I don’t want to be a Subaru-style, die-and-retry protagonist! Someone save me, please! Then I turned around and saw the girls trapped with me: Shinomiya Kaguya, Fujiwara Chika, Gotō Hitori, Yotsuya Miko, and others. Damn it, then bring it on! How could I let beautiful girls be sacrificed in a place like this? I’ll create a happy world—no Urobuchi-style tragedy and no grimdark despair! .... This is a translation of a Chinese Novel, with minor changes in some parts of the original story.

Succession : I M Roman

Waking up in a body that isn't his, a former fan of the show finds himself inhabiting Roman Roy during the high-stakes environment of the Roy family power struggles. He isn't just dealing with a new family; he’s dealing with overlapping memories and a suite of supernatural cognitive abilities known as "The Wounded King’s Arsenal." As he navigates the cutthroat world of Waystar Royco, he carries the heavy burden of meta-knowledge—knowing the tragedies and betrayals before they happen. After failing to prevent the pivotal accident at Shiv’s wedding, he realizes that knowing the future isn't always power; sometimes, it’s a cage. Now, he must use his "Empathy Engine" and "Value Sight" to protect his siblings from their father’s shadow, all while trying to keep his own humanity from being ground away by the corporate machine. The Wounded King’s Arsenal: The Powers Empathy Engine: This allows Roman to perceive surface-level thoughts, emotions, and true intentions. It’s the ultimate tool for "reading the room," letting him know exactly what Logan wants or what Gerri is actually thinking behind her professional mask. Value Sight: A corporate-tier sensory power that reveals the "true value" of assets, companies, and even people. It allows Roman to see the future trajectory of a deal or a person's loyalty, though it carries a high risk of information overload. Silver Tongue: An enhancement to Roman's natural wit, providing a supernatural edge to his persuasion. When he speaks with genuine intent, his words carry a weight that makes it significantly harder for others to dismiss or disagree with his proposals. Trauma Lock: A defensive mental mechanism. It allows Roman to temporarily suppress his own panic, guilt, or emotional pain, keeping him functional and "sharp" during high-pressure board meetings or family confrontations.
